"I am going to get my property taxes reduced!!! One of the Assessors adjusters looked at your listings and ran some listings of her own.  She sent me her listings and said that 3 were closet to my ranch and she would use those.  I panicked because they were a LOT higher than what we paid and I thought that would make my taxes go up.  They agreed to make adjustments from the listings you provided for age and size and now I don't have to go in front of the board!!!!  Thanks for your help, you always come thru." ...............................D. Montgomery


"The short sale process is uncomfortable and our specific circumstances made it difficult but nothing Debb did made it uncomfortable, she only made it better.  Debb was willing to help us with part of the processes that weren't even related to her responsibilities and to make every part of the process as smooth as possible.  Just goes to show us what an awesome job you did for us getting our place.  We love it and have been improving it slowly but surely.  That for everything, .we love our home"  .............M & P Jones

"Debb Mattas turned out to be exactly what our son made her out to be and more.  Everything that needed attention was said up front.  She kept our emotional experience within our budget and helped us stay focused so we didn't fall in love with a home that was too expensive which we would later regret.  We felt very much at ease and Debb controlled those emotions that can get out of hand.  Debb is a very diligent, honest and straight forward agent/Broker"..........Mr. & Mrs. Bieler


"I just want to tell you thank you so much for all the hard work you're doing.  Even though I've never gone through this process before, I do know that you are the reason things are going so well and I have not had a minute of worrying about papers or anything getting done.  It is very obvious how dedicated you are to making things run smoothly and you really know your stuff.  Even if something unforeseen happens, I am happy knowing it is not something I had to worry about. "You were always there when I had questions, I never had to worry about a single thing.  It was an amazingly easy process because of your professionalism and knowledge and dedication.  Your forethought to go ahead and put an offer on a more expensive property (with my approval) worked...I got it. I am grateful to have you as a friend and as my agent.  I think you should change your name to Ten Star Executive Realty because you are an agent come true.  :-)   Thank you"  .....................D. Gebase 


"You were extremely accommodating when we continued to revise our criteria and requested viewing of different units.  We could tell at this early stage that you were a well organized professional who truly had our best interests at heart.  (You never tried to encourage us to make a decision before we were ready or to accept something that did not meet our needs.)  Throughout the whole process you were always there to help walk us through it.  You returned phones calls and emails promptly and did a great job in keeping us updated on the status.  It is obvious that you are not only a knowledgeable real estate professional, but also a person who truly cares about her clients and does everything possible to do what is best for them".............A.
