Testimonials

Couple Amidst Moving BoxesA number of Patty’s clients have written testimonials to express their delight in having her act on their behalf whether they were buying a home, selling their home or both!

Read on to see what Patty has offered to her clients and what she can offer to you:

Dean K. – Sold Home of an Estate

“Thank you so much for all of your help.  It was really a pleasure working with you, and I truly appreciate everything you did for me and my family throughout the process.  From the initial BPO, through the flurry of negotiations, to the final closing, you made it all as easy as possible.  Above all, it is your kindness and good character that I found most valuable.  Thank you for everything!”

Alexander G. – Sold Home of an Estate

“As Executor to the Estate of Erica G., I had the responsibility to sell the above-referenced property on behalf of her family heirs and to attend to the matter in a timely manner thereby meeting the demands of the mortgage holder bank.

Following a period of renovation to the property, my family and I interviewed 3 Real Estate Agents, including Ms. Patty Sullivan, to represent us in this sale. Our consensus choice was Ms. Patty Sullivan.

From the outset, Ms. Sullivan provided us with all the information we needed, such as recent and historical sales comparisons, current market analysis and projections and also  a detailed marketing plan, which helped us to not only formulate a competitive  price but also to work closely with her timeline for open houses, advertising, and showings. In this regard, she made herself available at all times to assist us in preparing the property for sale.

After signing the listing agreement, Ms. Sullivan moved forward with an aggressive, but always considerate plan to prepare marketing information and open house schedules. Clearly, she succeeded in every aspect because we received no less than 3 offers on the property within the first 10 days on the market, agreeing to one of those shortly thereafter.

Ms. Sullivan guided us through the entire process, including escrow, inspections timelines, and final closing, with the highest degree of professionalism and courtesy. In this regard, therefore, I am pleased to recommend Patty Sullivan and am confident she will fulfill all her duties with distinction for anyone fortunate enough to engage her in the future.”

“On behalf of my family, I would like to take this opportunity to express our sincere appreciation and thanks to Patty Sullivan of Coldwell Banker for all her significant efforts and patience in finding us a great home in the Palos Verdes Estates area to complete our relocation from the San Francisco Bay Area. Unlike most relocations, ours spanned more than two years as we worked through timing issues, particularly those related to our children’s school schedules. Throughout this time, Patty took the initiative to stay in regular contact through e-mails, letters and phone calls, frequently sending us properties to consider while she continued to monitor the market conditions in Palos Verdes Estates. Patty was always very positive, upbeat and excited to help us throughout our search and move. She listened to our concerns and requirements and used this information to identify the right neighborhoods and potential houses to show us. Patty is very well connected tin the Palos Verdes community. Her advice and counsel have been extremely valuable.”

Once we identified a house that worked for us, Patty was very diligent in navigating us through the necessary paper work with the landlord and her agency so we could quickly close the deal. We are so happy with our new home! It has all the requirements we were hoping to find. When we moved in, Patty surprised us with a welcome package to get us through our first few nights. Since then, Patty has introduced us to new friends and organizations in the community. She has really made our new community and house feel like home. These special touches along with her patience and positive “can-do” attitude separates her from all the other real estate agents we have worked with in the past.

We feel so fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with Patty. We will highly recommend her services to anyone else we know who plans to relocate to this area.”

John and Shannon M. – Sold Home in San Pedro

“We can’t say enough about how pleased we were with Patty Sullivan as our agent. When we decided to sell our home last year it was such a delight to have a knowledgeable and hardworking person on our team. She made every step of the process as easy and stress free as possible. She is professional and caring. It was clear that Patty had our family’s best interest at heart. Her attention to detail and expert guidance helped our house to sell quickly at a wonderful price. We look forward to working with her again when we are ready to purchase our next home.”

“It is my pleasure to offer a letter of recommendation for and on behalf of Patty Sullivan of Coldwell Banker. Patty’s dedication to customer service, careful attention to detail and after the sale follow up is exemplary among service providers. Selling a home, buying a home and moving are all stressful experiences made less so because of Patty’s professionalism and personal attention.

Patty embarked on a particularly difficult assignment representing me. I had an extraordinarily short period of time in which to find a home. I gave her narrow geographic, physical and functional parameters. She listened carefully, utilized not only commonly available tools, but also walked the streets in Manhattan Beach looking for just the right home for me. Her efforts paid off handsomely. My objectives were achieved in less than 40 days from start to move in.

My greatest testimony to Patty’s ability is my commitment to use her again if ever I were to relocate.”

“After having lived in the same home for 25 years, the thought of moving was both daunting and exciting, but Doug and I knew it was time to begin the process for a variety of reasons. We also knew our choice in realtors would play a significant factor in our success as we faced the challenges and joys that were ahead. Fortunately for us we chose Patty Sullivan to represent us in both phases (selling and buying) of our relocation.

Although Patty had many qualities we were looking for in a realtor, because she and her husband Tom have themselves moved numerous times, it made a world of difference in her approach. She understood the emotional reality of change as well as the detail involved in moving. She provided amazing insight and support every step of the way based on her personal experience.

In addition to her personal experience, it was quite evident that Patty had a firm grasp on the field of real estate. Her knowledge of every step of the transaction process couple with her professionalism created a confidence in our ability to negotiate the best deal possible. She not only paid attention to our needs, she also anticipated possible pitfalls and helped us avoid them before they became issues. Because of Patty, our sale, purchase and relocation processes were nearly effortless and flawless. We love our new home and are grateful daily that we followed her enthusiastic lead.

However, much to our pleasure and surprise, Patty’s role of realtor did not end with the sale and purchase of our homes. She has continued to anticipate our needs in small ways such as providing us with new address labels to large ways such as compiling unsolicited information necessary for our tax return nearly eight months following our move. These two examples are but a few of the many that exemplify Patty’s attention to detail and personal commitment to her clientele.

Without reservation, we recommend Patty Sullivan as a capable, caring, qualified realtor. The only reason we will not be using her again is because she found us the home of our dreams…we’re not going anywhere! Thanks due to Patty, she’s the best!”
