Laveen, AZ Real Estate

"I highly recommend both Stacia Meeker and Gilbert Jaramillo of ESTRELLA Homes & Land Sold by RE/MAX Preferred Choice. The following comments are completely unsolicited and are mine alone. My first meeting with Stacia Meeker came about through a referral from friends with whom we were visiting in the Goodyear Estrella area in AZ. At my first meeting with Stacia and looking at some properties in the area, I decided I liked her approach and would use her services as a buyer’s agent. I returned a month later ready to look seriously and buy. At the time I arrived back in Estrella, I had developed an Excel spreadsheet detailing 50+ properties selected from the daily property searches I received from Stacia and Gilbert’s office. Both Stacia and Gilbert invested nearly a full week of their time with me and during that week I was treated with consideration, respect, and was NEVER PUSHED OR PRESSURED to buy anything….. period. We did look at nearly all the 50+ homes on my spreadsheet and by week’s end, aided by some hardball negotiating with a seller on my behalf by Stacia, I had an acceptance offer on the property that I wanted in hand. (Note that I’m currently using both Stacia’s and Gilbert’s extensive contacts in the area to make the place we bought extra special for us. ?) Stacia Meeker is a very outgoing high energy person. She has a great depth of knowledge on the properties in the area, and importantly has the ability to translate this knowledge into accurate and honest assessments of the local properties for sale. She also has great connections (for example she connected me with a mortgage broker who was able to prequalify me quickly and helped to expedite the entire process). She as I mentioned earlier, is not afraid to play hardball and knows exactly when to play that hand. Gilbert Jaramillo, Stacia’s partner at this RE/MAX office, has an encyclopedic knowledge of the regional real estate and worked with us seamlessly as Stacia’s teammate in our buying efforts. Gilbert has an easy going affable nature coupled with an uncanny ability to quietly and effectively evaluate subtleties his clients express while looking at houses. He uses his insights to really help his client find the property that will genuinely appeal to him. A valuable skill, it worked really well for me and my wife. The combination of both Stacia’s and Gilbert’s talents is a huge asset to their company and made our new house happen for my wife and I. Throughout the house buying process, I received exceptional personal service with speedy responses to any and all inquiries from either Stacia or Gilbert by phone, text, or email. Our buying experience brought home to me how nice it is to work with people who care about you and truly want you to be satisfied. Thank you to you both!"
