Sandie Hea

“We were buyers on a transaction for which Sandie Hea was the listing agent. We have purchased a few properties here in the US (in both California and Missouri) and out of the country (in Costa Rica). In fact, for a little over 2 years I worked in a very busy CA real estate office as both part of the transaction process and in the escrow department. We are no strangers to how transactions can and should go. Working with Sandie Hea blew all of those norms to smithereens. Throughout the process she was disrespectful and either deceitful or poorly informed. Kindness forces me to consider that she just didn’t really understand what the seller wanted but if I weren’t being kind, I would say that her behavior during the transaction was potentially deliberately deceitful and ethically corrupt. Her communications to our agent were rude, unprofessional, and when it mattered, on issues of real transactional substance, were, at best, poorly considered, and at worse, intentional deceptions. If something crazy happens and Sandie Hea is the only agent available in the world to work with, if my husband and ever decide to sell our house, the only contact with her I would have would be to ask her to move so that I could reach the For Sale By Owner sign. ”

“Sandie did an exceptional job with helping me find my forever home. She went above and beyond any expectations I had. She was especially accommodating with my living in Virginia and travelling back every 2 weeks to look for a home. Once I found the home, her expertise and extensive experience gave me complete confidence that all aspects of the closing process would be handled properly and comprehensively. She actually visited the property post-closing for more than a month to collect my mail and make sure the property was secure while I planned my move from Virginia. I was put at ease when I started the process with Sandie! ”

“Experience makes the difference. Selling our house after we have moved back to Germany was not the plan, but Sandie helped us through this difficult transaction, organized repairs, inspections and staging, while communicating seamless with us. Before contracting Sandie, we had the house listed with another agent for several months. This unexperienced agent told us what we wanted to hear rather than what we should hear. The result was, that the house was priced too high without making the required renovations … Luckily good friends recommended Sandie Hea as a trustful, well experienced realtor. When starting the contract with Sandie, we got open, constructive feedback on our property and made the recommended “adjustments” which finally has led to a successful contract with the buyers. ”
