"Working with Valerie Upham with Compass Real Estate was a pleasure. When It was time to list my uncles’ home in San Diego, she prepared an awesome plan to explain how she & her team would market the property to attract the right buyer & sell for top… dollar. She explained the process from beginning up to the time of closing escrow. She is very professional, knowledgeable,
and always took her time to explain anything that we were not familiar with. I highly recommend
Valerie to anyone looking for an agent to market their home."
"I had the pleasure of working with Valerie Upham on the sale of my Uncle's property in San Diego. Escrow closed today--on schedule--and the sale was as smooth as possible thanks to Valerie! She expertly and efficiently managed the entire process from… start to finish--every detail was taken care of proactively, and I didn't have to stress or worry because I knew she was always a step ahead. Valerie coordinated all the necessary professional services to get the property ready to show, recommended the best marketing strategy which resulted in multiple offers and the highest sales price possible, and she communicated effectively with all parties involved from listing to close of escrow. I appreciate and highly recommend Valerie Upham and her team. Thanks Valerie!"
"We just closed on our home with Valerie Upham and we were so happy to have her as our agent. As a first-time home buyer, it is simply a *lot*. We underestimated the complexity of buying a home and the sheer amount of work it takes to coordinate no… t only buyers and sellers but also inspectors, lenders, underwriters, insurance companies, and contractors. This is exactly why you need an experienced agent to guide you through the process, listen to you when it seems like the sky is falling, and remain levelheaded as you work together through each obstacle you come across. We had a few unexpected surprises during our inspection/escrow period across the different aspects of the transaction from the house to financing and insurance. Valerie was able to deftly prioritize and address each concern while still closing in a timely manner. Her personal yet professional manner helped us remain calm and confident that we were making the right decisions along the way. We highly recommend Valerie and team to help others navigate this competitive market."
