“Jennifer was amazing She was with me from the beginning, making sure I understood every aspect involved in selling my home. She was able to guide me through the process of prepping and listing, sorting through the offers and the negotiations. I felt in very capable and knowledgeable hands the whole way and we were able to close over the asking price! I definitely felt like she was in my corner, and highly recommend Jennifer.”

“I moved to the USA from Ireland and had a lot to learn about the buying process here. My wife was also a first time buyer. Jennifer kind of fell into our lap just through the process of looking for condos on Zillow and we are so glad she did. Jenn’s best qualities: - She can communicate the process very clearly to newbies like us. - Has a great network of lenders, tradesmen and inspectors. - Is friendly, patient, and contactable in the evenings. - Gives honest advice. She talked us out of making a bad decision on a condo that needed a lot of work, even though as an agent she stood to benefit from the purchase. We’re so happy she did this - our new place is 100 times better. - When working with her network you can close FAST. We went from making an offer to having the keys in 14 days. Very impressive. Buying property in California is a daunting task compared to back home. The costs are eye-watering, the paperwork is ten times the amount and the marketplace is competitive. We couldn’t have done it without Jenn to guide us.”

“I recently bought a house with Jennifer as my agent and my experience was fantastic. She took the time to truly understand my preferences, needs, and budget. Throughout the entire home-buying journey, Jennifer was an excellent communicator keeping me informed at every stage of the process. Whether it was providing updates on new listings, promptly answering my questions, or facilitating communication with the seller's agent, I felt well-informed and confident in my decisions. Her commitment to ensuring I found the right home for my needs was evident, and I never felt rushed or pressured to make a decision. Jennifer proved to be a great negotiator and I always felt my financial interest was well represented. The house I bought was a fixer-upper and required extra steps and patience. Again Jennifer's help was precious and I highly recommend her.”

“Brilliant agent Jennifer was absolutely amazing. She was on top of everything about the transaction, above and beyond my expectations and my limited understanding of what the job entails. but also, not only did she get top dollar for the sale of my house, she negotiated the purchase of my new home. ANY real estate issues I ever have in the future, without question I will work with this sensitive, enormously smart, skilled person who definitely has her finger on the pulse of the world of real estate.”

“She is best agent you can find Jen was invaluable to our home buying experience. She understood and worked towards our goals, gave us honest advice, and was tenacious when she needed to be. Her communication was great with us and we felt really good about her representing us. She has even helped us after the purchase as we get settled into our new home. I couldn’t imagine going through this process without her, and we would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. We would absolutely use her again but the home she helped us buy was so perfect we may never need to!”

“With Jennifer, Buying a House is a Blast As first time homeowners, we didn't know what to expect. But with Jennifer, it was a fun, joyful, and exciting process. Jennifer was a grounding force as we looked at homes, and her amazing (!!) expertise in a variety of home-buying areas - from HVAC to foundation to all sorts of home/construction things we never even dreamed of - made us feel confident and courageous in our homebuying process. She was always available, was always generous and kind, and truly guided us through the process with the knowledge and wisdom of an expert, and the joy and adventure of a friend. We could not have imagined a better process and truly ended up in the home of our dreams. I can't imagine any way this process could have gone better and we can't imagine doing the process again with anyone but Jennifer. If she's available when you're buying - you'll be in good hands and end up with the home of your dreams.”

“Smooth and easy! This was my first time working with Jennifer. It was not my first real estate transaction by any means; however, I have had some unpleasant experiences in the past and was looking for new representation. Jennifer came highly recommended by a trusted friend. Not only did she get me over asking during a slow time in the market and a turn toward a buyers market, we closed early and had a smooth and effortless transaction. Jennifer is incredibly professional. I really appreciated her transparency in all areas. She’s very organized and on top of things. Jennifer has a calm and easy way about her. Her gentle yet confident approach gets things done on time and respectfully. That’s my experience! If you are looking for a solid, seasoned, and knowledgeable advocate and representation for your real estate transaction, I wholeheartedly recommend working w Jennifer Wenzlaff and Proper Dwelling. I’m looking forward to working with her again in the future!”
