Colette Schaefer

I would like to announce my “awesome” award to Colette Schaefer for her excellent timely service and support during my recent home sale. I found Colette to be professional, easy to work with, and responsive to my needs. Colette is an asset to the David Lyng team, and I very much appreciate her efforts and support. Good luck in the future. Cheers, Doug

Colette did an excellent job on all facets of the purchase, answered all our questions, concerns, always available to address any issues we had.

Colette is well-experienced in the Santa Cruz area and I would highly recommend her. She was attentive throughout our home purchasing process, very professional, and is a pleasure to work with. She went above and beyond to help us relocate from out of the area.

Amazing! Colette was tremendous in every aspect and was “spot-on” at each step of the sales process and quickly had our house sold above asking price. She is the best!

Colette helped make our dream of owning a home come true. She was there for us every step of the way, holding our hand and explaining the process so clearly. We highly recommend her to help find your perfect home too!

I was a co-agent with Colette on a propety here in South Lake Tahoe where she was representing the buyers. I value communication as a key factor when working with other agents. Colette was extremely responsive and easy to work with and I would partner with her as a co-agent anytime. If you are looking for a referral agent in the Santa Cruz/Monterey Market, I highly recommend Colette. She was a joy to work with.

Colette helped me so much in the sale of my house. She guided me through the whole process that started with helpful referrals to professionals to get any needed work done on the house before and after an inspection. Those contractors were invaluable because they work closely with realtors and get the job done quickly. Not to mention the emotional support I needed as I would get down because it seemed to daunting. But she helped me emotionally, and even physically using her discriminate taste as we downsized my considerable wall art to capture just the right amount. Then she brought a number of pieces to enhance the look such as candles, towels and plants. Mostly, I owe my thanks to her for just getting me through this daunting process. Colette is a gem waiting for you.

We purchased a home with Colette and team in an extremely competitive market and amid rising interest rates. We ended up purchasing a home for our family off market prior to it being listed, without Colette’s connections we likely would have missed out entirely before rates went out of our price range. We had specific needs for a larger home due to our growing family and the inventory has been at an all time low in Santa Cruz/Scotts Valley. Colette worked to make sure we had options as soon as possible. She also brought in quality brokers and insurance agents to insure a smoother transaction (we ended up using a family friend but we think Colette’s contact actually had a better quote for us and we’ll be switching in one year). Even after closing, Colette had worked to be a liaison between buyer and seller to be sure the move in process goes as smoothly as possible. Thanks Colette!
