There is nothing better than receiving sincere thanks from my clients for a job well done. Some of my clients have shared their thoughts with you below.

Cheri went above and beyond her responsibilities as a real estate agent and engaged multiple entities involved with my short sale, greatly assisting me and making a successful sale while I was overseas as an active duty sailor.I am very grateful for having her as my agent. She stuck through a very tough sale and was my third agent after the first two quit on me.

Cheri English went above and beyond to sell our house while we were living out of state. She worked closely with the tenants living in the house to ease any stress for them and us. Because we were not there to help stage the house and yard, she made all the arrangements for landscaping and worked with contractors to have repairs done prior to listing. Cheri's true talent was in providing a comprehensive market analysis and providing a listing price that was spot on compared with other agents who looked at the house. The house was under contract within a month at full asking price. She communicates well and worked diligently to close the sale ahead of schedule. We highly recommend Cheri English to represent you as either a buyer or seller. She brings a lot of knowledge and experience to the table while remaining personable and easy to work with.

I would just like to share my experience with Cheri English as my realtor here in Oak Harbor. I bought a home here in 2004 with the idea that I would keep it rented out until 2017, when I planned to retire. This was successful for a while, but as the economy turned sour, I was unable to keep it rented. At the same time, I retired earlier than I had planned. I should say that I was living in Southern California when all this was going on. I had a different realtor when I originally bought the house but was dissatisfied with her services. I had met Cheri before and decided to hire her to help me sell my house and downsize. From the very beginning Cheri was proactive and informative. She sent me recent comps on a monthly basis and answered every question i had about them. When we decided on a price, I felt I could make an informed decision on the basis of the information she gave me. My former home needed some work done, and she always took the time to send me more than one estimate to decide from and let me know how long the businesses had been active in the area. She took countless pictures of all of the improvements and did some of them herself to make my house more showable...when there was a windstorm she went over and checked on the house personally and removed broken branches. She held my hand long distance when traversing buying and selling in this economy had me biting my nails. When the house sold, and I bought a condo I felt that I had made the most informed decisions that could be made. And she always kept a sense of humor. When I moved up here, she made sure I had lots of information about the community. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a hardworking realtor who has her client’s best interest in mind.

Thanks

Cheri is top-notch. She was very knowledgeable and was very attentive to our questions. We were very pleased with how she handled the entire transaction from start to finish. She is great at what she does. Very highly professional and respectful.

Naturally, selling a house can be a stressful and overwhelming experience; doing so while living across the country can make the task feel even more daunting. We knew choosing the right agent to represent us would be the most important factor in determining a successful sale. We interviewed three agents over the phone and invited each of them into our house to develop a marketing strategy, which included a market analysis for an appropriate price point.

After our initial conversations, Cheri was a clear favorite of ours. Not only was she knowledgeable about the market in Oak Harbor, but she also had the ability to engage in personable conversation and expressed a desire to make this a positive experience for us as well as the tenants living in the house. Our tenant also said that Cheri was the clear choice from her perspective because Cheri showed more interest in learning about the property and took extra time to discover all the aspects of the house that made it unique from other listings on the market. According to our tenant, the other agents rushed through the house and didn’t bother discussing the sales process with them at all. Cheri knew the importance of having the tenants on board to ensure the success of future open houses and showings.

Once all three agents submitted their marketing strategy and proposed list price point, Cheri once again set herself apart from the competition by providing the most comprehensive market analysis and realistic price point. One agent suggested a price point $50,000 less than Cheri, and the other suggested one about $30,000 higher. We felt Cheri’s was by far the most realistic and immediately knew she was the right agent to represent us. She reassured us that she rarely gets the price wrong and is typically within $5,000 of the actually selling price. We were certain we had made the right choice in agents, but I really didn’t expect her price point to be that accurate. My husband and I decided to lower the asking price by $7000 at the very last minute. Cheri was fully supportive of our decision even though she expressed that she felt we could get the price we had originally agreed upon. She told us that she was there to guide us and offer her expertise; however, she said that we were in control of the listing and wanted to let us make the final decision.

Within a week we had an offer, but it was riddled with contingencies and we weren’t sure what to do. Cheri provided great advice and we were able to hold the first offer at bay without officially declining it. That allowed us time to receive a second offer that was above asking price and eerily on point with her initial price recommendation. Truly, Cheri’s understanding of the market combined with her instincts make her an ideal agent. Most importantly, she went above and beyond to assist us in the prep work before the house hit the market. She made phone calls and arranged for landscapers and servicemen to visit the house to make sure it was in the best shape possible before any viewings. We could not be any more pleased with our experience, and I’m certain that much of that is due to Cheri’s diligence and professionalism. She is by far the best agent we’ve had the pleasure of working with. A self-described “pit bull in pantyhose”, she will work tirelessly for you to make sure you get top dollar for your house and not let any opportunity slip by.

Cheri provided outstanding service and support throughout the process of preparing, listing and selling my home. I had to follow the entire process from out of state and was not able to be present locally. Cheri bent over backwards to ensure the house was taken care of after the tenants vacated. Her local contacts/knowledge ensured the process went quickly and as smoothly as possible. She answered all my questions and walked me through the whole process. Thank you Cheri!!

Cheri was a pleasure to work with. She was very upbeat and friendly, our kids enjoyed seeing house with her as well! She listened to what we wanted in a house and gave good suggestions for what else we might not have considered.
