I wanted to express our sincere appreciation to Christine Benson for helping us make a challenging transition from a four acre home in the Sierra Foothills to our wonderful new home in Temelec.  Christine brought an excellent knowledge of local real estate values and locations to help us find a new match for retirement living in the midst of everything wonderful Sonoma has to offer.  However, the real differentiator in this case is that Christine brings additional attributes not always found in real estate transactions.  She is a fearless negotiator, a realist when it comes to pricing and property inspection issues, and brings a cadre of competent inspectors, plumbers, and roofers to the table as needed.  In the end, Christine has become a dear "friend" as well as our competent realtor and our extended local family has also embraced her for her good will and enthusiastic support.  

Christine made what could have been a stressful experience fairly stress-free. She was masterful at pulling together and scheduling a top-notch group of professionals to accomplish whatever was necessary to prepare my house for listing. This included highly qualified individuals involved with required inspections, painting and staging which were all scheduled in an extremely short period of time. Christine's guidance in completing the required disclosures made the process much easier. Her marketing skills are excellent. I was amazed at how rapidly an interested buyer was found. Her representation of the buyer as well resulted in a satisfactory sale for all involved. I was extremely happy with the outcome of the sale of my house and would highly recommend Christine to everyone looking for a real estate specialist in Sonoma.
