Mary M.

Nancy is very knowledgeable about the Goleta area. She helped me to sell my house from a distance. She was always available to help me by making design suggestions, meeting workers, and showing my house to its best advantage. I sold my house over the hectic holiday period and yet everything about the transaction went smoothly and quickly thanks to Nancy's calm efficiency. I highly recommend her.

Sepi Day

Nancy understands the professional relationship. She offers outstanding customer service, making me feel like "we are in this together". She is knowledgeable, compassion, kind, and competent. She doesn't let obstacles get in her way - she pivots easily and gracefully, and finds new ways to overcome challenges. I can't imagine ever working with anyone else again!

Asad M.

Nancy did a great job helping us find a place in the Santa Barbara area. She had our best interests in mind and worked hard to resolve issues we encountered throughout the process. She made our first property purchase go smoothly.

Linda Rosso

Nancy is always consistent and calm, even when things do not progress as planned. She can pivot quickly and think of alternative solutions when unexpected situations arise. She is a loyal, diligent, hard worker and goal oriented. I feel fortunate to know her and have experienced the joy of working with her.

Douglas

Very professional and knowledgeable! Easily reached. She kindly showed me townhomes and single-level homes in the area and was very helpful with answering questions and knowing about the most recent changes in real estate laws. I would highly recommend her.

Silvia Perea

Nancy Newquist Nolan made it possible for us to purchase the house of our dreams. Nancy is passionate about her job and cares about her clients deeply. She is very responsive and puts her clients' needs and wishes before hers. I strongly recommend her!

Seller

Nancy has lived in Santa Barbara for most of her life. Her knowledge of state laws and real estate is amazing! We had to sell our house-it was on the market for 10 days, tops. If we were to move back to CA, we would definitely want her to find us a house!

Jeff M.

My wife and I met Nancy through a mutual friend who recommended Nancy. We recently moved to Santa Barbara from San Francisco. Nancy was the consummate professional to help us find our new home. We highly recommend Nancy to help with your real estate transactions.

Penny B.

We love working with Nancy! She's caring and professional and always goes the extra mile for her clients, family, and friends. As a home stager, I really appreciate that Nancy gets her listings market-ready in a logical simple step-by-step approach. I highly recommend Nancy for all of your real estate needs!

Seller

I have worked with her for half a year and find she is trying to help you very sincerely. She has good knowledge of the house price here and her suggestion is very considerate for you. She is caring about your money. Although finally I will move out of California, I still appreciate her help. She is very patient too.

Claire S.

Nancy was really great to work with! My husband and I were first-time home buyers and scored a great deal on a home prior to it going out on the market, thanks to Nancy! Throughout our home search, Nancy was very informative, responsive, and professional. Especially being first-time home buyers, it was important that we had someone to go to with all of our questions and Nancy always had the answers, resources, or advice. We recommend her and would work with her again!

Laurie T.

Nancy is a true real estate professional. At separate times over a 6 month period, I hired Nancy to sell two properties that belonged to my parents. Both properties sold quickly. Nancy offered expert real estate guidance, had excellent communication skills, and was easily available by phone, text, and email. Living out of state, I felt at ease with Nancy's approach and professionalism from afar because she reached out on a regular basis to update me on both SB market conditions and activities associated with the sale of the properties. I would use Nancy for future property sales and will recommend her to family and friends who have real estate needs in the SB area.

Buyer

We were first-time homebuyers very nervous about the incredibly hard market in the Santa Barbara area. Before meeting Nancy we had met three other Realtors® as we interviewed to find the best fit. Nancy was the first person we felt comfortable with from the start. We were on the "lower end" budget-wise (for Santa Barbara at least) and we never got the feeling that we would not be important to her as a lower-end client, and we were so happy that we were working with her directly (not an associate). She was easy to talk to and always answered all of our questions. Super accessible by email, phone and text. In the end, we found the perfect home for us and our growing family and Nancy was there every step of the way to make sure we got all the best inspections and got the best possible price on our home. We know we will absolutely use her in the future if/when it ever comes time to move agai…

Sabrina

HUGE shoutout to Rachel and Nancy for helping my neighbor get out of her home, which was a dangerous environment and health risk. This was not your average listing. They customized the process to her needs while letting her call the shots at the same time. The house was a near tear down, and was red tagged by the city. They got her well above asking price with a quick escrow. They got her “must haves” packed up for her. Rachel bought her fresh clothes, took her to run errands , appointments and FaceTimed her only family which is out of state since she has no phone. Rachel is still doing things for her even after the sale. She’s bringing her dog to visit her in skilled nursing and dropping off supplies to her boarded cat, communicating with her family and fiduciary. Talk about above and beyond! Thank you Rachel and Nancy!
