Some kind words from our clients….


5097 San Vicente, Santa Barbara

 

I interviewed several other realtors before selecting Julie Ouellette to sell my home. Her enthusiasm, quick & thorough communications, and her experience in getting 'less than perfect' homes ready for market really set her apart from the others. She was able to identify quick fixes and areas for improvement that I wouldn't have considered and which, overall, greatly improved the salability of the house and yard. Julie turned our somewhat neglected house and yard into a beautiful home, beloved by all who saw it.

Throughout it all, Julie kept me regularly updated with photos of work done and suggestions for home and yard enhancements. Julie was such a joy to work with -- she was always upbeat, enthusiastic about the project, and hands on in getting materials, directing/coordinating the workers, and even buying plants and putting them in the ground herself. The Ouellette Team did a fabulous job of photographing the house and yard and creating the MLS listing and marketing materials. Everything was so beautifully and professionally done. She personally orchestrated the brokers' and public open houses which were a huge success and resulted in multiple excellent offers immediately afterwards.

Julie helped me in reviewing the multiple offers and negotiating with the potential buyers. There is no doubt that the repairs and 'nice touches' Julie recommended resulted in solid offers up to 4 times the cost of the repairs/renovations. All in all, this was such a superb experience from beginning to end. I enthusiastically recommend Julie Ouellette without reservation as an excellent real estate broker.

Julie and her team provided a complete range of services. They went out of their way to accommodate us regarding open houses, staging recommendations, selecting an asking price that was different than what we had in mind, but proved to be exactly right. Julie also suggested other professionals, eg painters, carpet cleaners etc. who did excellent work at moderate prices. We consider Julie a friend and hope that we'll stay in touch in the future.

Julie is awesome and does whatever it takes to be available and helpful. She goes to the next level of great service. We will always use Julie for any Santa Barbara real estate transactions. It has been a pleasure working with her the second time around as much as it was the first time. She honest and trustworthy and truly wants the best fit for everyone.

Julie has been absolutely amazing and gone way above and beyond what we expected. As first-time home buyers, she took the time to really explain the process to us and help us learn what qualities to look for when buying a home. She was always available at a moment's notice to see a property and we really relied on her expertise of the qualities of the home to make our purchase. She had great working relationships with other realtors and made our offer stand out! She is now helping us to remodel our newly purchased home. She put together a budget for us, set us up with a whole team of local contractors, and has advised/managed this project the whole way! We were really nervous that we would be able to find a home that we really like in this crazy market. We absolutely love our new home and are so very grateful for Julie's expertise in making our dream come true. Picking Julie Ouellette as our realtor was the best decision!

Julie is the best realtor we have ever worked with. We worked with her previously, and would not work with anyone else in the Santa Barbara area. She is professional, knowledgeable, smart and nice. We can’t say enough kind things about her.

A friend of my daughter's recommended Julie Ouellette and I am so glad she did! She was extremely helpful in guiding me through the process of buying a home for my daughter and her family. She made sure that everything was taken care of promptly and accurately and I always felt like my concerns were Julie's first priority. I am so grateful to Julie and could not have asked for a better realtor.

Julie came highly recommended and now we know why. Searching for a house is a stressful process, especially when you live on the other side of the country. Julie was always on top of everything and made sure to stay two steps ahead. Julie was very easy to work with and was extremely knowledgeable. We would work with her again in a heartbeat. We appreciate the extra calls she made, the extra trips she took. Her support was immeasurable.

We could not have done this transaction without Julie. She is the ultimate real estate professional! Her attention to detail is superb, and she does a terrific job of acting as her clients' advocate.

Julie did a magnificent job managing the sale of our first home in Goleta. We were very, very pleased. When it came time to sell my parents’ home with my brother and sister, picking a realtor was not my sole discretion. I recommended Julie strongly to them, but Julie had to sell herself. My brother and sister could tell Julie was experienced, honest, and enthusiastic about our home. She got the job hands down and we are highly pleased with the results. I felt that I was kept fully apprised of all important details throughout the whole process. Julie is simply highly gifted at communication in every respect. She is as perfect a realtor as anyone could ask for.

If you are serious about house-hunting, Julie is perfect. We have not been in this area for very long, so her knowledge about the area, about single-family housing vs condos and PUDs was invaluable. I had no vendors in our short time in SB, so really appreciated her team of vendors for nearly everything. She came to us very highly recommended by three of my colleagues who worked with her so we were able to relax and trust her from the start.

Julie Ouellette is simply the best realtor we've ever worked with. She always goes over and above. Her knowledge of the market is second to none. If you are buying or selling a home in Santa Barbara she is by far the very best!

Julie was our broker on our first home in Santa Barbara. She is simply THE BEST and there is no way we could have purchased our new home without her help. If you give awards, Julie deserves an award. She cares more, does more and is the finest professional and person we know in her field.

I have been involved with many realtors and I’ve never had a realtor like Julie. Julie was amazingly responsive. She helped us through the entire process. She was incredibly thorough and helped us work through all the variety of information we had to deal with. I highly recommend Julie!
