“I inquired about a property on Zillow and was contacted very quickly. The agent that responded was Sheila Johnson in Paso Robles Ca. Sheila was fantastic to work with. She helped me throughout all aspects of the process. Helped me negotiate a price and provided me with input and advice as we went along. Sheila exhibited exactly what a person would want in a Real Estate agent. She is knowledgable, tenacious and consistent in her approach to things. The thing I liked about her the most was that she would tackle anything. What I mean is, if a problem arose, she would jump in immediately and start working through it. All too often agents are lazy or unmotivated. In this case, it was a smaller transaction. I would say "Size of the deal" did not affect how Sheila operated. Once a client of Sheila's, she will see it through. Thanks. :) A Happy client....”
