"We were so fortunate to have Gina Martinelli as our Realtor®! I only have good things to say about Gina and the whole experience. During the middle of the COVID pandemic, we decided to move back to San Diego after having lived in Sonoma County for 10 years. Initially, we thought that we would get settled in San Diego and then return to Forestville to get the house ready for sale. With limitations on travel, we were not able to travel back to Forestville. In stepped Gina! She took care of everything, and I do mean everything. She arranged all the necessary inspections and provided valuable advice regarding which repairs were necessary and which could be disclosed. She found the tradespeople for the necessary repairs and managed everything. Some of the repairs that she supervised were: dry rot repair, painting, re-roofing part of the roof, landscape design in certain areas, dump runs, and more. And, she even stood in line at Xfinity to return our cable box! I know that she did things that we should have handled but she never once made us feel uncomfortable or guilty! Gina always had a positive attitude and a joke to lighten the mood. When our house went on the market, Gina kept us informed about important details but did not overwhelm us with unnecessary information. She sold our house at the asking price in less than three weeks! We are so thankful that Gina was our Realtor® and found a great family to move into our beloved family home."

"Kim Fahy is always my first choice when anyone asks me for a referral to a real estate agent. She is smart, pro-active, experienced, and an incredibly good communicator. Her marketing strategy advice is always on point and she’s great at bringing a team together to make sure her listed properties give the best possible impression. I’ve gotten rave reviews of Kim’s work from everyone I’ve ever referred to her, including my closest friends. I’ve also witnessed her skill first hand when she handled the sale of my father’s home during his trust administration (and obtained multiple bids with the final price well above comps). In my 32 years practicing real estate law, I have not met another broker with her combination of skill and personality and cannot recommend her highly enough."

"Our Home sold fast and at full price When my wife and I decided to move from California to Oregon, we needed to sell not only our home in Guerneville but also my mother’s home in Santa Rosa. We expected the houses to be on the market for at least 30 days. Not so! With Gina Martinelli’s help, we sold one home in a single day, with a purchase pric..."

"Our Home sold fast and at full price When my wife and I decided to move from California to Oregon, we needed to sell not only our home in Guerneville but also my mother’s home in Santa Rosa. We expected the houses to be on the market for at least 30 days. Not so! With Gina Martinelli’s help, we sold one home in a single day, with a purchase price higher than the asking price; we sold the second home within three days, with two bids coming in at the full asking price. Of course, the housing market at the time played a huge role in our success, but so did Gina. For example, Gina told us exactly what we needed to do to make each house look its best, Gina gave us advice on what to renovate and what to leave for the new owners. Since the county had lost all documentation on our home, Gina helped us gather everything a buyer would need: elevation certification, building permits, etc. Gina did all the legwork to get cracks and electrical issues repaired on our older house; we didn’t have to do anything. Since Gina was less familiar with the housing market in Guerneville, she sought advice from local agents to determine an asking price. Once the bids came in, Gina evaluated them and then presented them to us, explaining which bids were better and why."

"Kim was great from the start. As first time home buyers, both my wife and I weren't sure what to expect from our realtor. We had heard a few horror stories from friends who had purchased homes with other agents. From the start Kim made us feel comfortable, asked all the right questions and took us to see 30+ homes before we made a decision to pu..."

"Kim was great from the start. As first time home buyers, both my wife and I weren't sure what to expect from our realtor. We had heard a few horror stories from friends who had purchased homes with other agents. From the start Kim made us feel comfortable, asked all the right questions and took us to see 30+ homes before we made a decision to put offers down on 2 separate homes. We got the one we really wanted and Kim's knowledge of Sonoma County, her quick responses to all emails and phone calls, along with the fact we got our home for such a great deal made it a terrific experience. When my wife and I either buy another home, whether its a rental or our own family home, we'll have Kim take care of us again."
