Buyer Testimonials

Alison and the Elder Group Tahoe Real Estate team prides themselves on delivering exceptional results – and more – to our Clients. Here are recent testimonials highlighting Alison’s approach to finding the right property for each Client’s needs and price point. We look forward to working with and for you!

We had a very positive experience in buying our Truckee home through Alison. She took the time to get to know us and really tuned in to what we wanted. I am sure we were not the easiest clients but she was tenacious about showing us properties that she felt would interest us without wasting our time on homes that were out of our price range or that she know we wouldn’t be interested in. She was also very helpful in working with the seller and making sure all the small details of the property and sale were taken care of. Buying a home can be stressful and she made it easy. I enthusiastically recommend her for your real estate needs.

Alison was GREAT!  We talked with her over the phone several times before our visit and explained our needs.  When we arrived she had a list of about 12 properties.  That afternoon we made an offer.  She listened to us and understood what we wanted.  She did not waste our time.  We would use her again.

Thank you Alison! We had been looking to upgrade for a few years using a couple different Realtors. Every time something came on the market we were interested in it was already sold. Then we found Alison. She kept us informed of any new listings that met our criteria and because of that we soon found our perfect home.

Also, Alison was amazing in selling our smaller house. She staged it beautifully and it sold within a few days for a great price!

We would recommend Alison to any of our friends. She made the whole process a enjoyable experience. We are impressed!

After struggling with uninformed or unresponsive Realtors, it was refreshing when Alison promptly responded to our first voicemail. She knew the property in which we were interested and, in an eight-hour tour, gave us valuable insight into the market that was instrumental to our decision-making.

From the first meeting it was clear we were in capable hands.

Alison is extremely knowledgeable about Truckee, Tahoe and the surrounding areas.  She has incredible energy, brutal honesty and great integrity.

Her knowledge extends beyond merely knowing the properties, but what it takes to secure the one you want.

She seems to have answers and referrals for just about anything that arises in the course of searching for and conducting due diligence on a property.

Alison is the quintessential professional. It is not possible to be happier with her services than we have been.

My husband and I went up to the Tahoe area basically to see how close we were to being able to afford a second home. Alison took the time to give us a quick education on the area and found us a great opportunity that fit our budget.  The transaction seemed seamless to me, although I know she proactively addressed some issues to make it seem that way.  Her team took great care of us, making sure we were well informed on every step of the transaction.

I would recommend Alison and her staff to anyone I know, and when the time comes to move on to my next big thing, I certainly will call upon Alison and her team again.  Thank you so much for everything.  Alison, you ROCK!
