Rachel and Doug are the best real estate agents in the area. They sell quickly and at a high price! They did a lot of effort to make our house look bright and lovely before listing it. We received a fantastic offer a few days after the stunning grand opening. Despite the fact that the buyer had given up, Rachel and Doug instantly found a cash buyer for us, and the sale was closed in one week, for $40K more than the previous offer! I'd recommend the team to anyone selling a house in the area!

Rachel and Doug have been nothing short of a proverbial dream team! In this extremely hot sellers market theres one thing my husband and I have learned and thats having a team of two who work as cohesively as Doug and Rachel is one of the main reasons we had the level of success that we did. Timing our properties go-live date, coming on at the right price, running an elaborate and busy open house with over 150 people in attendance, and managing close to 10 multiple offers, Rachel and Doug were always two steps ahead. Rachel and Doug managed our sale in a very first class way! With

I am a current buyer in the market and knew Rachel Swardstrom as a seller's agent for a house I am interested in. I am putting my review here as a feedback. I met Rachel, for a house showing in Irvine and found her unprofessional and rude. She has a bad attitude and bad communication. After several texts and unanswered phone calls, I showed up for the house showing and she found out she has a meeting at the same time so she decided to cancel the showing. I don't recommend dealing with her.
