"Having Colleen as my real estate agent was a real pleasure. Her professionalism, great attitude, and hard work, along with a pleasant way of handling business, made buying my first home a great experience.

I felt confident that Colleen was doing a great job during the entire process. Colleen Yaklich will be the person I will be recommending to anyone who needs real estate services! ".
Dianne.


"I can wholeheartedly recommend Colleen Yaklich for any of your real estate servicing needs.

I speak from personal experience. Colleen helped me find my current home. Actually "helped" would be a considerable understatement.

We must have seen 100 homes together over a 6 month period. Webster should have a picture of her next to the word patience in his dictionary. She truly wants to find the right home for each of her clients. She always presents herself in a professional manner, smiling and always willing to do the extra things that are so vital to make good deals work.

You can trust Colleen to work hard and diligently for you and you can rest easy knowing she is on your team.".
Albert.


"Honest, detailed, responsible, capable, resourceful, thorough and knowledgeable are just a few words that come to mind when I think of Colleen Yaklich.

On countless occasions Colleen went over and above to help us sell our home. We needed to have some work done before selling the house and Colleen helped me find and secure vendors - she even made sure they completed the work in the aggressive time line we put together!

We achieved our goal of selling our house quickly and at the price we wanted. I have not doubt that was achieved by Colleen's understanding of our needs and her sense of urgency to help us meet our goal.

Colleen has great contacts in the industry and she is clearly highly respected by all of them. That says a lot to me. It is with great confidence that I recommend Colleen Yaklich to anyone thinking of buying or selling a home or property on the Monterey Peninsula.".
Lisa.

We had little time to find a home in Monterey. Being a Navy family limited the amount of time we could visit the Monterey peninsula to look for a home.

I contacted Colleen about a month before moving to Monterey and gave her specific guidelines for homes my husband and I had in mind. We weren’t familiar with the area at all and Colleen was very helpful and knowledgeable and gave us so many pointers of a location that would fit our needs. On a consistent basis before we visited Monterey, Colleen e-mailed us listings and current homes for sale in the Monterey area.

Before our visit, Colleen set up appointments and had a set schedule for us to view as many homes as we could in our 3 day window. We were able to find a home, make an offer and close within 30 days because of Colleen. She went out of her way for us and we could not be more appreciative.

Our home ended up being within a mile of the Naval Post Graduate School cutting our commute time down to under 5 minutes- can’t beat that! Thanks Colleen for all that you did for us!

Overall, our experience with Colleen Yaklich was outstanding. She is hard working, detail oriented, and honest. She sold our house in a very short time. She went above and beyond to insure we had the best experience in a seller's market.

We do not think you could find a more capable realtor in Monterey County.
Barbara and Bob
 


"Having bought and sold several homes, Colleen is our best realtor experience.

She is very professional, which I find lacking in the real estate world. She is hard working, invests her time and money in the sale of your home, thorough, and has timely follow-through on her action items and promises.

She provides advice when asked without being overbearing, and respects your wishes. I find Colleen to be pleasant, positive and best of all, honest. I highly recommend Colleen to be your realtor".
Tanya and Greg.
 

"We feel we had the fortunate experience of having Colleen as our Real Estate agent. We had moved out of California before the house sold, and without Colleen, our experience would have been much different.

Colleen did everything and anything to help sell the house. She had a great marketing plan, continued to advertise and have open houses and kept the gardens going.

When we had some water damage, she worked with our insurance agent and even cleaned out the garage when our tenants left. What other agent that you know would clean up a dead gopher that our tenants cats left?!".
Phylis And Dennis.
