Meet Chelsea Lovascio

When me and my fiancé thought of moving to Petaluma we never thought it would be accomplished given the current housing market. I decided to reach out to Tim anyway and pick his brain. He immediately put us in touch with an amazing lender (Premier Lending) and we were pre-approved within a couple of days. Immediately after pre-approval we began our search for a house with Tim. We found a house that would be perfect for us as 1st time home buyers. After talking it over with Tim he thought we should submit an offer as we might have a good chance at getting it accepted. Tim had a professional relationship with the selling realtor which made the process...

Tim was vital in assisting us with selling my mother's home. He took charge to getting the place ready. He is very responsive. We now have him looking for a new place for us. I would recommend Tim without a question.

A+ Agent: Tim is very professional and without question the best agent I have used in buying and selling 6 homes over the years. He is low pressure, very supportive and knows his stuff. He always presented a balanced view of every house we looked at i.e. the good and the not so good to help us think through the opportunity. He was patient, a pleasure to be with, organized and made every moment productive. I trusted him every step of the way and recently recommended him to one of my daughters who he also helped buy a home.

Tim made selling my home quick and painless. He made sure to keep me informed through the entire process and when I had questions he was knowledgeable and courteous to respond right away. Based on his expertise and experience in the local market he really put me at ease where I felt he had my best interest at hand. So much so, that I look forward to partnering with Tim on future opportunities.

Tim navigated us through the purchase of our first home in 2017, even coming in under $50K off the listing price. 2021 was challenging for home buyers, but Tim was there again, helping us land our second home. In addition to his extensive North Bay contacts, Tim also has a team to help with everything from loans to painting. Simply the best.

Tim was heaven sent to me! I had a very complicated purchase...Reverse to Purchase, then Cash. Without Tim advocating for me, I am sure that I would not have been able to purchase my Dream House. Tim did a lot of "handholding" to calm my shaken nerves. He was always just a phone call away, or a personal meeting away. His knowledge of the market, and his knowledge of me enabled him to show me properties that were a good match...then the Ultimate Match! I highly recommend Tim to my friends and anyone who needs a professional in the Real Estate world. Thank you Tim!!!!

Tim worked with us on the sale of our home, making it a seamless experience. We would recommend Tim for his expert knowledge of the area and his skilled guidance and expertise in the complexities of real estate.

Tim is an incredible resource. He's knowledgeable , patient, and has helped us so much. Many thanks and congrats on Hedge.

Tim and his team were referred to us by one of my close childhood friends and Real Estate Agents in our hometown of San Jose, Ca. My wife and I desired an investment property in Wine Country and with that, we needed local knowledge of a smart investment within a desired community. Tim and his team worked diligently but also patiently with us as we combed through multiple markets to suit our investment needs. Tim and his team found an incredible property that we enjoy as a family but also make a decent return each month to offset upkeep costs. We are thankful for Hedge Realty and would recommend them to anyone.

Tim is very professional and was great with helping us sell our property. He was always there for any questions that we had and I would highly recommend him for not only selling but also buying a home.

Tim walked us through a quick and easy house sale, helped us to make decisions and since we were relocating to a new state after 27 years in one home, his team was instrumental in offering support. We were supported throughout the process, the team went above and beyond to provide oversight while getting the home ready for sale were completed, and we were already out of the area. Received above ask and highly recommend Tim Little and Hedge Realty!

Working with Tim and his team is everything you could hope for in the scary world of real estate. From the initial meeting to the staging and on to the close of the transaction, we were so well taken care of by all. Tim is knowledgeable and professional with the added bonus of being genuine and down-to-earth. We aren’t exactly real estate moguls, but he never made us feel out of our lane in terms of understanding the process. Timely and thorough communication, prompt at scheduling and follow-through, these lovely people run a very efficient show! We have bought and sold property at separate times with Tim and it honestly felt much easier than I thin...

Tim helped us find the perfect house! He gave us great guidance and advice as first time home buyers. We were so happy with Hedge Realty and would use then again in the future.

Working with Alexa and Tim of Hedge Reality was a pleasurable and fruitful experience. Their expertise and contacts made the process of “getting my house ready for sale” easy and much quicker than I’d imagined possible. The pictures Adam took were wonderful, they made the house look better than I remembered. The whole process of deciding to sell, getting the property ready and the sale (almost 200K over asking) took little more than 6 weeks.

Hedge Realty embraced our family and took the time to understand our vision. Then they made it a reality. We have a big family and have moved many times. Finding a home is a very emotional journey. We have never before experienced the care and attention that Tim and Alexa bring to their work as realtors. They listen, calmly solve problems, and operate ethically in a difficult business. We could not more highly recommend them as stewards of your future home.

Had an excellent experience selling our house. Felt good about the confidence, the experience and connections both Alexa and Tim, and their team, have, how they work together, and their professionalism. They were easy to work with, enthusiastic about our listing, had some great great ideas for marketing, but also listened to us and what we wanted. Always let us know how things were going and were always available to answer questions and help us through the process in any way. I hope we get to use them again to buy our next home or property. Update, we also used them to buy a new house. They are so fun to work with! I would defiantly recommend them. ...

Tim made selling my home quick and painless. He made sure to keep me informed through the entire process and when I had questions he was knowledgeable and courteous to respond right away. Based on his expertise and experience in the local market he really put me at ease where I felt he had my best interest at hand. So much so, that I look forward to partnering with Tim on future opportunities.

Tim is an excellent real estate agent. He represented us in both buying our dream home and selling our prior home. He was by our side every step of the way in both transactions and did not flinch to negotiate on our part and do anything that was needed to make it all happen. He goes the extra mile to make you feel at ease in the process and is hands on... lending us a duvet for staging, helping with the move and taking care of odds and ends when we left town. Tim is very personable and felt like part of the family. I highly recommend Tim as your next broker.

Tim Little is an excellent realtor and provided us with professional and personal expertise and support. He has an extensive knowledge of the local and Bay Area market and never ceased to amaze us with his pocket full of experts in numerous trades for inspections and repairs. He is a canny negotiator and exceeded our expectations in pricing and responses to offers. He is diligent in following up on any issues that arose and is relentless in his ability to resolve problems and delays that occurred, even when they were on the buyer's side. Tim is the only agent I would trust to take care of us in any real estate venture.

Tim is amazing. He not only held our hand through the whole first time house buying process, he made it fun and interesting. His knowledge of the market, Sonoma county and the entire house buying process was so comforting. Being a first time buyer, we had a ton of questions and concerns and Tim was always there to answer them and guide us through. In this crazy market, you definitely want someone who can negotiate on your behalf. Tim helped us "win" our dream house, even though other bidders had cash over asking. He is wonderful and personable, and real estate these days is not just about money...it takes a connection and relationship to make the de...

We cannot say enough good things about Alexa Glockner-she is stellar! Alexa helped us sell our old house and buy another home in 2015. Unlike many others in this industry, she always puts her clients’ best interests first and far exceeds expectations. She is very knowledgeable, thoughtful, completely dedicated, extremely hard-working, and can be firm or flexible when needed. Alexa also is extremely responsive and is a joy to work with because of her wonderful attitude and personality. Alexa is a rare jewel and we consider ourselves lucky to have worked with her.

Tim has represented my husband and I as buyers twice and sellers once. He is truly great at what he does and made us feel confident in all three experiences. He gave us honest advice for putting together strong offers in our purchase experiences. When we decided to sell our first home he gave us similarly great advice on timing of when to list and connected us with a team of people to help us get everything in order to make our house present well for photos and potential buyers in a short time frame. We ended up receiving multiple offers over the asking price and closed the transaction pretty seamlessly. If we ever buy or sell again, he will be the ...

Tim was great to work with. We worked with him on both the sale of our property and a subsequent purchase of a property. He really understood the market and we we very happy with the outcomes on both the sale of our property and the subsequent purchase. Tim was always available to discuss things during the sales process and was super responsive when we called. He has a great demeanor and always kept us calm and balanced. Selling a property is never easy but Tim made the entire process really stress-free. On our subsequent purchase, Tim was outstanding during the offer process. He really gave us great advice on how to get the property for the...

Alexa was amazing. She helped us get organized, figuring out what we needed to remove to make our home shine for prospective buyers. She comes with an amazing team too. She had contacts for helping us move some furniture into storage, plus access to trusted inspectors for the homes we were viewing for sale. She comes with a great assistant to help with marketing and open houses too. The photographer took lovely photos. Alexa attended every showing and open house. And she made special effort to engage buyers from around the Bay Area to come view the home. Our home went far and wide with her company's marketing network. Her reassuring and positive spi...

Alexa Glockner is that rare real estate agent who can truly listen to her clients and find them their perfect match. She knows every facet of Petaluma inside and out, especially local arts and culture (all the things you think you'll miss from the city~ but are surprised to find in this quaint gem of a town). Alexa clearly loves her community and stays abreast of the market. I felt that our needs were always on the forefront of her concerns and her responsiveness was assuring. Within a conversation, Alexa understood my families' needs, aesthetics and budget. She provided insights on neighborhoods, districts, walkability and historic highlights withi...

Tim was nothing short of amazing in helping us find our dream property! We had our eye on Petaluma for a while, and once we decided we were ready to move, we were so lucky to be put in contact with Tim. He was so patient and really listened to what we truly wanted. I could not have asked for a better realtor to help us find our forever home. Thank you for everything Tim!!

We can’t thank Tim enough for everything he has done for us! Tim went way beyond in so many ways. He handled the sale of our rental property - explaining every detail while seamlessly taking care of every detail! Tim then showed us several properties for a 1031 exchange - Tim’s astute negotiating and quick thinking “won” a little cottage for us - in a frantic and stressed bidding environment! All of Tim’s real estate and people skills made this complicated transaction move smoothly! Tim is perceptive and professional on all levels /listening to our concerns and goals with patience and endless optimism! We are so lucky to have Tim on our side, turni...

Tim & Alexa are the first team I would call for buying or selling a home. They are well attuned to the market and service oriented. My property was listed early in the pandemic. They arranged for a virtual staging and found trades people for necessary repairs when most of the economy was sputtering. They get the job done and are a pleasure to work with.

As first time homebuyers, we couldn’t have imagined working with anyone but Alexa and Tim. They were by our side every single step of the way. They are incredible communicators, educated us about every piece of the house buying process and were able to negotiate our way to purchasing our dream home. They genuinely care about their clients and love what they do. The only downside of purchasing our home is that we aren’t in touch with them every day.

Alexa and Tim were so helpful during every step of the selling process, and we couldn't recommend them more! When we first contacted them, we weren't quite ready to list, but they gave us advice to prepare for the listing process and checked in enough to let us know that they were available to help however needed, while never making us feel pressured. In NorCal's fast moving market, we really appreciated their responsiveness and professionalism. They got to know us and made sure that we had all the information we needed to make wise decisions.

Just a note to express our thanks to Tim Little and Courtney Keating of Southeby's International for their exemplary performance in the staging and sale of our property. They were both with us every step of the way, from pre-listing discussions to closing. Their energy, knowledge of the local market and excellent people skills were instrumental the sale of our home at full price. The property was shown by appointment only and Tim and/or Courtney were always there ahead of time to greet the clients and their realtor. Their suggestions to have well , septic and other inspections in place prior to an offer being received were also instrumental in the s...

Alexa has represented me in the buying of 4 properties and in the sale of 3. In the 4 properties that I bought (2 in Petaluma, 1 in Sebastopol, 1 in Tomales) she was trustworthy, reliable, organized and extremely knowledgeable of the areas. Her personalized services made all the purchases easy. Any issues that appeared were fairly and quickly resolved. In the sale of my 3 properties, again, her personal attention in helping me edit and stage my homes, as well as, being present at every showing, resulted in multiple bids. She does what she says she is going to do and "listens" to my concerns. I highly recommend her!

Tim was heaven sent to me! I had a very complicated purchase - Reverse to Purchase, then Cash. Without Tim advocating for me, I am sure that I would not have been able to purchase my Dream House.

Alexa has been hugely helpful to me in two different real estate transactions. She knows the business inside and out, has the highest of standards, and is extremely creative when it comes to marketing. When buying a property that was extremely complicated, I found Alexa remarkably resourceful and always ready with a solution, a professional to bring in, and a tireless enthusiasm. She's a delightful person with a wonderful sense of humor which made the whole business so much more fun. I recommend her wholeheartedly!

Tim is amazing. My family has worked with him for many years and multiple buys and sells. He even helped my 90 year old grandmother sell a home and purchase 2 condos. He is very patient and always willing to help you view a house you are interested in. He is very respectful, knowledgeable and makes home buying and selling an enjoyable experience. I would highly recommend Tim for any real estate needs. 10/10!

I had an amazing experience working with Tim. He is very knowledgeable about the area and found us the perfect house for what we needed. He was a great resource throughout the process and even after. I felt that I could count on him when I needed him, but he also gave us the space when we needed it. Very easy to work with and responsive. I recommend him to anyone I know looking to buy or sell.

Tim made selling my home quick and painless. He made sure to keep me informed through the entire process and when I had questions he was knowledgeable and courteous to respond right away. Based on his expertise and experience in the local market he really put me at ease where I felt he had my best interest at hand. So much so, that I look forward to partnering with Tim on future opportunities.

We weren't sure if we were ready to buy our first home. Tim was so patient and walked us through each step of the way. Tim is very professional, courteous, friendly and provides excellent advise for the first time home buyer. He is also very knowledgeable of the local market would very much recommend Tim and look forward to working with him again in the future.

Tim was a instrumental in selling our property in 2013. In every aspect of the selling process, Tim treated me with honesty and integrity. He kept in constant communication with updates and suggestions. I was treated with the utmost care, respect and professionalism. I am extremely grateful I got to work with him and highly recommend Tim.

Had a great experience working with Tim on the sale of my property. He consistently kept me up to date on what was happening with the sale. And he met and even exceeded my expectations throughout the process, would highly recommend working with him.

We had a great experience with Tim and total confidence after the first few meetings. Phenomenal expertise. We had very little time and Tim figured out exactly what we wanted. Highly recommended!

Jenny is a fantastic real estate agent. She is so thorough and hard working. She guided me through the purchase of my new home. I was able to act quickly in the middle of a very busy time in my life because Jenny was on top of all the details, gave me great advice, and was knowledgeable about the local market. I have the utmost confidence in Jenny and couldn't recommend her more highly.

I highly recommend Jenny Belforte. A reliable advocate; she is professional, knowledgeable, and caring. She makes sure you feel listened to and that you understand what is happening throughout the process. Her level of detail and follow up is impressive as is her ability to quickly assess a situation and lead you in the right direction. Jenny has your best interest at heart.

Chelsea was great to work with, super knowledgeable about the local area, including lenders, and very responsive. I highly recommend her and her team.

We used Chelsea to buy our house and had such a great experience that we also used her to sell our house! She is so knowledgeable and great at what she does. She is prompt in answering all of our million questions and happy to do so. She is an expert negotiator and got us top dollar for our home! Working with Chelsea we knew we were in good hands and could trust her advice and knowledge. We would happily work with her again and highly recommend her!

Working with Chelsea and Zoe was a wonderful experience! We needed to conduct most of our home search from out of state. Our challenge was overcome by Chelsea providing us with daily home updates and frequent on-site video walk-throughs of the homes that we were interested in. Her experience and knowledge of the area proved to be highly beneficial to our search. We are now extremely pleased with the home we recently purchased. The offer and closing went very smoothly. We give Chelsea and Zoe our highest recommendation for those looking to be represented by exceptional real estate professionals in Sonoma County!

Chelsea and her team of people are excellent! She made the process easy to work through and seamless. From selling our home to buying our dream home we could not be happier with her service. My husband and I were impressed with her negotiation skills when buying our new home. We also loved all her connections that made getting approved for a loan quick and pest inspections sometimes the next day. I would not recommend her more!!!

Working with Chelsea was nothing short of wonderful. She was on top of her game from the moment we said we wanted to take a look at the property. When we had a question or a need, she was on it like white on rice. She made the process of buying the house as painless as possible.

Chelsea and her team are the people you want in your corner when buying a home. We’re still shocked that they were able to get us into our dream home, despite the wildly one-sided sellers market. Chelsea’s knowledge of the industry and aggressive approach (with the sellers, not us) is undoubtedly the only reason our offer was accepted, despite at least one much higher bid. We almost didn’t even submit an offer because we were so sure that the deal wasn’t going to happen, but Chelsea advised us to try. Her quickness to respond to any and all questions kept us feeling comfortable in an otherwise highly intimidating process. If she doesn’t have the ans...

Chelsea was wonderful! She was recommended to us and we are so glad we worked with her. We were on a time crunch to find a house in this crazy market and it all worked out smoothly. We are first time home buyers and Chelsea walked us through the whole process. She and her team were always available. We have busy schedules and even had to look at some houses separately. We really loved working with her and would definitely choose to work with her again!

Chelsea is a warm, kind, generous professional and an exceptional realtor. We were so fortunate to have her on our side throughout the long journey of purchasing our first home. We first met her during an open house she was showing and we were impressed with how warm and kind she was to our children. She took the time to reach out to us, checking in on us, asking about our kids, and when we saw how invested she was with our family, we decided to work with her to find our dream home. She is so approachable and generous with her time, available even nights and weekends. She is very knowledgeable and experienced, but what's more impressive is her flexi...

Chelsea assisted us with our exhaustive search for a new home. When we finally found one, she got our house on the market quickly resulting in multiple offers. It sold within two days at the price we were hoping for. I couldn't have been happier and would recommend Chelsea anytime.

Chelsea and her team were essential in guiding us through the process and securing a house in this incredibly competitive market. With her negotiation skills our bid won and we are first time homebuyers!

Chelsea was a fantastic partner for us as we looked to find a weekend home in the Russian River area. We jumped into this process without much knowledge of the area and its complexities ... but Chelsea was patient, educated us, was always responsive, and helped guide us as we navigated the market and the area. Once we found what we were looking for, she was like a dog with a bone and made things happen fast. I'd highly recommend Chelsea if you're in the market for a great partner in the North Bay!

Chelsea and Zoe were great, I would highly recommend them! I ended up purchasing the first home we looked at, below asking, with a discount at closing. Super happy in my Sonoma County home!

This was the third time that I worked with Chelsea! She is knowledgeable, organized, and very responsive. She handled this sale from start to finish, including a significant amount of touch-up work and marketing hustle. I would gladly work with her again.

Chelsea was wonderful to work with! She was prompt to respond and quick to get things scheduled. She was amazing at keeping up in the loop every step of the way and she made our jobs easy! She took her time to get to know us and learned our likes and dislikes in a home. She was always so positive and patient and offered a lot of knowledge for us as first time home buyers. I would send any of my loved ones to work with her!!

Chelsea is THE BEST! Chelsea helped my family find our perfect first home. My wife and I were worried we would have to leave Petaluma, but Chelsea found us the perfect home, in the best school district and we were able to stay local. Chelsea made the home buying process so much easier for us and really took a lot of stress off of us. My wife and I have very busy schedules and Chelsea always made time for us, and I really appreciate we could get ahold of her night and day. Even after we bought the house, Chelsea continued to help us with various things such as getting flooring and contractors. She shopped around and made sure we got the best deals, ...

I have been working with Chelsea for about 5 years to find the best house situation for our family. She has been so patient, super responsive and more than helpful for anything we need! She is super available and easy to get along with!

Chelsea was kind and professional. We met Chelsea while purchasing our new house and liked her so much we asked her to help us sell our old house. She knew exactly what needed to be done to help us sell in a timely matter and get the desired price for our house. She was always quick to respond even in the evenings and weekends. Also, she has incredible marketing skills to make sure that your property gets plenty of people interest. I would definitely use her again and have already referred her to several people.

We were very happy working with Chelsea to sell our home. I believe her recommendations helped sell our home quickly. Chelsea is knowledgeable and responsive.

Chelsea was a true asset for us during the entire home selling process. We were able to utilize the Compass Concierge funds prior to the sale and that help reduce the hidden cash flow issues that arise while prepping one house for sale while preparing another to live in! In addition, the concierge we had a very effective sell/price plan we listed a bit low to create some interest then held of on accepting offers for a week after officially hitting the market and then countered to what we thought was the best situation. It was really well done.

Chelsea got us our dream house on a contingency sale in a competitive market. She is a go getter that makes things happen. She is quick to respond, respectful, and very hard working. Not only was she able to help us secure our dream house at $70k less than asking, but also able to sell our previous house for the max possible sale price, which ended up being way more than we ever could have imagined getting for it. She coordinated and made this all happen in 21 days! I always felt like I was an important client and felt kept in the loop at all times. Now we are in our dream house thanks to Chelsea and her recommended finance team. I can not recomme...

We have been working with Chelsea for several years now. This is the fourth property she has helped us purchase in Sonoma County. This latest property took a while to find. We appreciate Chelsea's patience as we looked at a number of properties, sometimes visiting a property more than once. She always returns our calls quickly and is willing to go the extra mile for us when needed. She is friendly and charming, and quite knowledgeable about real estate. She has a great team on her side and made this transaction seem so easy. We really appreciate her hard work and we are thrilled she was on our side during this purchase. We will always look to her fo...

Chelsea is a star. She trekked with us all over Sonoma helping us look at many different types of properties and helping us consider pros and cons of all the places we saw. She was a great partner in thinking through the offer process. A last-minute surprise meant that we ended up canceling an offer during contingency and rapidly pivoting to another - Chelsea took everything in stride, and we ended up with the right place. She is incredibly responsive and ready to help with any questions or issues that come up. Thank you Chelsea!

Chelsea was amazing to work with! She went beyond expectations in finding my first home for me and my family. I would recommend her to anyone who is buying or listing a property in the area. She was professional, responsive, and knowledgeable about the current market conditions.

My wife and I had a wonderful experience working with Chelsea. She helped us through the entire process of finding a house, guiding us through the negotiations, then helping us through Escrow and beyond. Chelsea is very easy to communicate with, she listens to what is important to you in a house, and follows through with diligence and professionalism. She's honest and forthright. She is very responsive and has a ton of experience. I honestly can't recommend Chelsea enough!

Chelsea was proactive, easy to work with, and the perfect teammate for buying a home. I highly recommend her to anyone interested in buying a home in Petaluma.

Chelsea has been incredibly helpful in buying our new home. We couldn’t have done it without her. She was very professional, very responsive, helpful in getting the best team together to process our mortgage and she’s just a cool chick!

Chelsea is an exceptional real estate agent. She has impressive insight into the local market, great marketing instincts, and effective negotiation skills. Her responsiveness and follow through was the best I have ever seen. She managed our sale process from beginning to end and didn't miss a beat. Would highly recommend her for any real estate transaction

Chelsea has been a great asset to us and has been helping every step of the way. Finding the home wasn’t difficult, but dealing with issues that came up along the way taxing, especially with having two full time jobs and a little one at home. Chelsea stepped up and made herself and her assistant available for letting contractors is, negotiating terms with the previous owners, discussing ways to circumvent some time constraints, etc. I would highly recommend her as she has extensive knowledge of the area, knows many players in the game, and isneasily available thru text or phone.

You hear about what a pain it is to buy a house, but Chelsea made it so easy for us. Chelsea sent us new home listings on a daily basis that fit our wants as well as our budget, she never pressured us to look at something out of our reach. When we found the house we wanted make an offer on, Chelsea took care of everything, all we had to do was prepare our personal letter and decide on an amount. She checked in with us through the whole process and kept us informed about the next steps all the way through escrow, it was so easy! If we had a question about anything, Chelsea was just a text away. We genuinely appreciate how helpful and knowledgeable ...

Chelsea was friendly and knowledgeable and made the selling process easy. We closed on a 7 day escrow. The process was explained in detail in advance and Chelsea was very accommodating with making my schedule work.

Chelsea is a great realtor! She met us where we were, first-time home buyers. Chelsea did a great job of explaining the process and where the market was. She helped us narrow our search area, tour homes and prepare our offer. She guided us successfully through a competitive bid situation, the title company, inspections, removing contingencies, through the close of escrow to getting the keys to our first home! Chelsea's professional reputation, can-do attitude and industry relationships carried us through the whole process.

Chelsea helped us to actualize our dream of providing a wonderful home to our two young girls. Chelsea's knowledge of the market, combined with her exceptional communication skills provided an environment that gave us confidence in every step of selling our old home, and buying a new one. A professional at every level, I would highly recommend her if you are looking to buy or sell in this market.

Working with Chelsea was amazing!!! Not even sure where to begin? She was recommended to us by my brother, a loan originator in the area, and I don't think we could have had a better agent. Chelsea was responsive and extremely flexible with her schedule to accommodate our scheduling challenges. (We live outside the area and have opposite work schedules, which significantly limited our availability to come up and look at places, meet, etc), but she was able to work with us very easily. We were a little weary of the process, given the demand for housing here, but maybe her New York City experience gives her that competitive edge...:) We sent Chelsea ...

Chelsea was an alround please to work with! She always was very professional, and in touch with our needs. She was in touch often, and very easy to get a hold of when needed. She readily answered our questions and concerns, and we trusted her 100 percent. We spent a lot of time together, and we really feel lucky to have had her by our side!

Chelsea is a consummate professional and the best real estate agent we could have hoped for while purchasing a home. Chelsea began as our advisor and helped us evaluate the housing market and formulate a plan for how to get what we wanted in a home while buying in a red-hot seller’s market. She understood the market inside and out and was able to find us a variety of homes that all would have met our needs. She was incredibly responsive, and worked around our schedule to help us visit whatever homes were of interest. Chelsea answered our questions very quickly, and in the (unlikely) event that she did not know the answer herself she referred us to...

Chelsea is a consummate professional and from what my wife and I could tell, specializes in representing buyers in this very difficult seller's market. She was attentive and treated our home search like it was her top priority at all times. She was knowledgeable on navigating the VA home lone process and our whole home buying process was very smooth, despite this being our first home purchase. We highly recommend her.

Chelsea helped my wife and I purchase our first home in Santa Rosa, and the experience working with her was nothing short of amazing. She was knowledgable, punctual, and communicative and made what would have been an incredibly stressful experience relatively easy. It took us less than two months from our first meeting to move into our new home! I'd HIGHLY RECOMMEND Chelsea to anyone (and already have)!

My husband and I are amazed at the skills that Chelsea Lovascio has, including the masterful ease at handling all of the unforeseen details. I truly believe that Chelsea Lovascio has incredible talent. Without her gifts, we would not have been so triumphant in the sale of our home in such a short time! We are so grateful for her diligent work!

It was a fantastic experience working with Chelsea. She is incredibly responsive and communicative. She helped explore a wide range of properties before we found the right one. And she was a trusted advisor as she helped navigate the offer and closing process. Chelsea looped in other experts to help with some critical questions during the contingency period, and she kept the whole process moving forwards. Chelsea was always supportive, and never pushed. It was a pleasure to work with her!

As soon as the keys were in hand I logged on to write this review. As a first time buyer, we had a lot to learn and Chelsea schooled us, patiently and lovingly until we closed on our dream home. Put simply, Chelsea is THE woman you want in your court. Besides being sharp and a closer, she's super fun--which helps on those long days touring houses.

I found a house in a very fast moving market and wanted to move on it quickly. Chelsea must have dropped everything to stay on top of a very competitive situation between myself and other potential buyers. Through offers, counter-offers, and Chelsea's guidance on structuring a deal that would be more favorable to the sellers than my competition's offers, I ultimately got the house. Thank you, Chelsea!!

Wonderful to work with! Great attitude and always had a smile on! Very on top of it as she helped us close in 21, no extensions needed! Would highly recommend working with Chelsea!

Chelsea is a consummate professional; it was BY FAR the best real estate transaction we have ever experienced from our many years of buying and selling real estate. From the start, she was extremely knowledgeable about the Russian River market; what she didn't know off hand, she was able to quickly glkeen from a multitude of local and county resources. Every conversation, meeting and communique was a pleasant experience, and inquiries were promptly and completely addressed without exception. We would HIGHLY recommend her to any one seeking an real estate individual who knows their profession well, and that is an absolute pleasure to deal with on al...

I am so glad that my spouse and I met Chelsea at an open house and followed our intuition to work with her on our home purchase. From the first day, she presented ideas and options with a keen ear to what our needs and preferences were. Chelsea made herself available and easy to reach as we started looking at homes and comparing possibilities. Every step of the buying process went smoothly, which was also in part due to the referrals she provided us along the way such as a mortgage broker and general contractor. Highly recommended!

Our family really enjoyed working with Chelsea. She went above and beyond to help us buy our house. Our situation was more complicated than most and she was patient and knowledgeable in getting us through the whole ordeal. She always put our interests and needs first. Chelsea was always quick to respond to any question or need we had be they urgent or not so urgent. She was never pushy or just thinking of the sale - we always felt she was thinking of us and what our family needed. We always enjoyed her company..thank you Chelsea!

Chelsea has been enormously helpful to us in securing a new home. We live out of the area in which we wanted to purchase a house and the market we wanted to buy into was particularly "hot". Chelsea went out of her way to make this happen, providing wise counsel, working late into the night to assure that the necessary documents were prepared and signed, assuring that all home inspections were completed in the time allotted, etc. She was constantly in contact with us, keeping us updated on all developments by phone, email and text. And she gave of her time so generously when we were with her in person. And all of this was accomplished with the most p...

Chelsea is a beautiful woman and a very skilled Realtor. She was extremely helpful at all stages of my VA home purchase. I can't recommend her enough! She arranged everything for me during the inspection period and beyond. Thank you Chelsea Lovascio! Nick Legg

Chelsea is wonderful to work with, she walks you through each step with care, and knowledge, and responds very quickly to all questions. She follows up with a lot of information and is always tracking your sale or purchase. She is thoughtful and easy to communicate with. I highly recommend her!

I highly recommend Chelsea Lovascio and Yarrow Kubrin. They are a great team. They have always made time for us, either to answer questions or show us properties. They are prompt and efficient. They are knowledgeable about the real estate market and guidelines. We enjoy their enthusiasm and great attitude. It has been a pleasure working with them both.

Chelsea took me under her wing and guided me through the process of purchasing a home. It was the first one done on my own and even though I have had a home previously, I did not have to make the same kind of decisions as I did this time. She was knowledgeable about the area and listened to what my needs were and only showed property that fit the boundaries of my requirements. If she did not know the answer to a particular question I had, she found a responsive resource for me. She kept me appraised of procedures, timelines, reminders and managed to keep smiling through it all. She made all appointments for vendors to inspect the property and m...

We had the pleasure of working with Jenny Belforte to purchase our home in Sebastopol. We couldn’t have been happier and are working with her again to sell our property. She immediately dialed us into homes for sale that matched our criteria and location. She is incredibly kind, thoughtful, professional and thorough. She guided us throughout the process of buying our home with ease and always answered any questions we had. We highly recommend her!!! The best realtor in Sonoma!

Chelsea was great to work with, super knowledgeable about the local area, including lenders, and very responsive. I highly recommend her and her team.

We used Chelsea to buy our house and had such a great experience that we also used her to sell our house! She is so knowledgeable and great at what she does. She is prompt in answering all of our million questions and happy to do so. She is an expert negotiator and got us top dollar for our home! Working with Chelsea we knew we were in good hands and could trust her advice and knowledge. We would happily work with her again and highly recommend her!

Working with Chelsea and Zoe was a wonderful experience! We needed to conduct most of our home search from out of state. Our challenge was overcome by Chelsea providing us with daily home updates and frequent on-site video walk-throughs of the homes that we were interested in. Her experience and knowledge of the area proved to be highly beneficial to our search. We are now extremely pleased with the home we recently purchased. The offer and closing went very smoothly. We give Chelsea and Zoe our highest recommendation for those looking to be represented by exceptional real estate professionals in Sonoma County!

Chelsea and her team of people are excellent! She made the process easy to work through and seamless. From selling our home to buying our dream home we could not be happier with her service. My husband and I were impressed with her negotiation skills when buying our new home. We also loved all her connections that made getting approved for a loan quick and pest inspections sometimes the next day. I would not recommend her more!!!

Working with Chelsea was nothing short of wonderful. She was on top of her game from the moment we said we wanted to take a look at the property. When we had a question or a need, she was on it like white on rice. She made the process of buying the house as painless as possible.

Chelsea and her team are the people you want in your corner when buying a home. We’re still shocked that they were able to get us into our dream home, despite the wildly one-sided sellers market. Chelsea’s knowledge of the industry and aggressive approach (with the sellers, not us) is undoubtedly the only reason our offer was accepted, despite at least one much higher bid. We almost didn’t even submit an offer because we were so sure that the deal wasn’t going to happen, but Chelsea advised us to try. Her quickness to respond to any and all questions kept us feeling comfortable in an otherwise highly intimidating process. If she doesn’t have the ans...

Chelsea was wonderful! She was recommended to us and we are so glad we worked with her. We were on a time crunch to find a house in this crazy market and it all worked out smoothly. We are first time home buyers and Chelsea walked us through the whole process. She and her team were always available. We have busy schedules and even had to look at some houses separately. We really loved working with her and would definitely choose to work with her again!

Chelsea is a warm, kind, generous professional and an exceptional realtor. We were so fortunate to have her on our side throughout the long journey of purchasing our first home. We first met her during an open house she was showing and we were impressed with how warm and kind she was to our children. She took the time to reach out to us, checking in on us, asking about our kids, and when we saw how invested she was with our family, we decided to work with her to find our dream home. She is so approachable and generous with her time, available even nights and weekends. She is very knowledgeable and experienced, but what's more impressive is her flexi...

Chelsea assisted us with our exhaustive search for a new home. When we finally found one, she got our house on the market quickly resulting in multiple offers. It sold within two days at the price we were hoping for. I couldn't have been happier and would recommend Chelsea anytime.

Chelsea and her team were essential in guiding us through the process and securing a house in this incredibly competitive market. With her negotiation skills our bid won and we are first time homebuyers!

Chelsea was a fantastic partner for us as we looked to find a weekend home in the Russian River area. We jumped into this process without much knowledge of the area and its complexities ... but Chelsea was patient, educated us, was always responsive, and helped guide us as we navigated the market and the area. Once we found what we were looking for, she was like a dog with a bone and made things happen fast. I'd highly recommend Chelsea if you're in the market for a great partner in the North Bay!

Chelsea and Zoe were great, I would highly recommend them! I ended up purchasing the first home we looked at, below asking, with a discount at closing. Super happy in my Sonoma County home!

This was the third time that I worked with Chelsea! She is knowledgeable, organized, and very responsive. She handled this sale from start to finish, including a significant amount of touch-up work and marketing hustle. I would gladly work with her again.

Chelsea was wonderful to work with! She was prompt to respond and quick to get things scheduled. She was amazing at keeping up in the loop every step of the way and she made our jobs easy! She took her time to get to know us and learned our likes and dislikes in a home. She was always so positive and patient and offered a lot of knowledge for us as first time home buyers. I would send any of my loved ones to work with her!!

Chelsea is THE BEST! Chelsea helped my family find our perfect first home. My wife and I were worried we would have to leave Petaluma, but Chelsea found us the perfect home, in the best school district and we were able to stay local. Chelsea made the home buying process so much easier for us and really took a lot of stress off of us. My wife and I have very busy schedules and Chelsea always made time for us, and I really appreciate we could get ahold of her night and day. Even after we bought the house, Chelsea continued to help us with various things such as getting flooring and contractors. She shopped around and made sure we got the best deals, ...

I have been working with Chelsea for about 5 years to find the best house situation for our family. She has been so patient, super responsive and more than helpful for anything we need! She is super available and easy to get along with!

Chelsea was kind and professional. We met Chelsea while purchasing our new house and liked her so much we asked her to help us sell our old house. She knew exactly what needed to be done to help us sell in a timely matter and get the desired price for our house. She was always quick to respond even in the evenings and weekends. Also, she has incredible marketing skills to make sure that your property gets plenty of people interest. I would definitely use her again and have already referred her to several people.

We were very happy working with Chelsea to sell our home. I believe her recommendations helped sell our home quickly. Chelsea is knowledgeable and responsive.

Chelsea was a true asset for us during the entire home selling process. We were able to utilize the Compass Concierge funds prior to the sale and that help reduce the hidden cash flow issues that arise while prepping one house for sale while preparing another to live in! In addition, the concierge we had a very effective sell/price plan we listed a bit low to create some interest then held of on accepting offers for a week after officially hitting the market and then countered to what we thought was the best situation. It was really well done.

Chelsea got us our dream house on a contingency sale in a competitive market. She is a go getter that makes things happen. She is quick to respond, respectful, and very hard working. Not only was she able to help us secure our dream house at $70k less than asking, but also able to sell our previous house for the max possible sale price, which ended up being way more than we ever could have imagined getting for it. She coordinated and made this all happen in 21 days! I always felt like I was an important client and felt kept in the loop at all times. Now we are in our dream house thanks to Chelsea and her recommended finance team. I can not recomme...

We have been working with Chelsea for several years now. This is the fourth property she has helped us purchase in Sonoma County. This latest property took a while to find. We appreciate Chelsea's patience as we looked at a number of properties, sometimes visiting a property more than once. She always returns our calls quickly and is willing to go the extra mile for us when needed. She is friendly and charming, and quite knowledgeable about real estate. She has a great team on her side and made this transaction seem so easy. We really appreciate her hard work and we are thrilled she was on our side during this purchase. We will always look to her fo...

Chelsea is a star. She trekked with us all over Sonoma helping us look at many different types of properties and helping us consider pros and cons of all the places we saw. She was a great partner in thinking through the offer process. A last-minute surprise meant that we ended up canceling an offer during contingency and rapidly pivoting to another - Chelsea took everything in stride, and we ended up with the right place. She is incredibly responsive and ready to help with any questions or issues that come up. Thank you Chelsea!

Chelsea was amazing to work with! She went beyond expectations in finding my first home for me and my family. I would recommend her to anyone who is buying or listing a property in the area. She was professional, responsive, and knowledgeable about the current market conditions.

My wife and I had a wonderful experience working with Chelsea. She helped us through the entire process of finding a house, guiding us through the negotiations, then helping us through Escrow and beyond. Chelsea is very easy to communicate with, she listens to what is important to you in a house, and follows through with diligence and professionalism. She's honest and forthright. She is very responsive and has a ton of experience. I honestly can't recommend Chelsea enough!

Chelsea was proactive, easy to work with, and the perfect teammate for buying a home. I highly recommend her to anyone interested in buying a home in Petaluma.

Chelsea has been incredibly helpful in buying our new home. We couldn’t have done it without her. She was very professional, very responsive, helpful in getting the best team together to process our mortgage and she’s just a cool chick!

Chelsea is an exceptional real estate agent. She has impressive insight into the local market, great marketing instincts, and effective negotiation skills. Her responsiveness and follow through was the best I have ever seen. She managed our sale process from beginning to end and didn't miss a beat. Would highly recommend her for any real estate transaction

Chelsea has been a great asset to us and has been helping every step of the way. Finding the home wasn’t difficult, but dealing with issues that came up along the way taxing, especially with having two full time jobs and a little one at home. Chelsea stepped up and made herself and her assistant available for letting contractors is, negotiating terms with the previous owners, discussing ways to circumvent some time constraints, etc. I would highly recommend her as she has extensive knowledge of the area, knows many players in the game, and isneasily available thru text or phone.

You hear about what a pain it is to buy a house, but Chelsea made it so easy for us. Chelsea sent us new home listings on a daily basis that fit our wants as well as our budget, she never pressured us to look at something out of our reach. When we found the house we wanted make an offer on, Chelsea took care of everything, all we had to do was prepare our personal letter and decide on an amount. She checked in with us through the whole process and kept us informed about the next steps all the way through escrow, it was so easy! If we had a question about anything, Chelsea was just a text away. We genuinely appreciate how helpful and knowledgeable ...

Chelsea was friendly and knowledgeable and made the selling process easy. We closed on a 7 day escrow. The process was explained in detail in advance and Chelsea was very accommodating with making my schedule work.

Chelsea is a great realtor! She met us where we were, first-time home buyers. Chelsea did a great job of explaining the process and where the market was. She helped us narrow our search area, tour homes and prepare our offer. She guided us successfully through a competitive bid situation, the title company, inspections, removing contingencies, through the close of escrow to getting the keys to our first home! Chelsea's professional reputation, can-do attitude and industry relationships carried us through the whole process.

Chelsea helped us to actualize our dream of providing a wonderful home to our two young girls. Chelsea's knowledge of the market, combined with her exceptional communication skills provided an environment that gave us confidence in every step of selling our old home, and buying a new one. A professional at every level, I would highly recommend her if you are looking to buy or sell in this market.

Working with Chelsea was amazing!!! Not even sure where to begin? She was recommended to us by my brother, a loan originator in the area, and I don't think we could have had a better agent. Chelsea was responsive and extremely flexible with her schedule to accommodate our scheduling challenges. (We live outside the area and have opposite work schedules, which significantly limited our availability to come up and look at places, meet, etc), but she was able to work with us very easily.
