We recently sold our home with Caroline in Redwood Shores. I've never sold a home by myself (I'm widowed) but Caroline made the process seamless and stress free. Although we didn't have a lot of in-person interaction, she always made sure she or someone from her team got back to me on questions I had. Selling during a pandemic is tough and although we had some challenges (listing after the 4th of July after things just started to open up meant many people out of town), in the end we still sold our house above asking. What I liked most about Caroline is her easy-going attitude

A HUGE thank you to Caroline and her entire team at the Dinsmore Group for providing us with an outstanding experience and outcome!! We would ABSOLUTELY work with her again!! +10/10!! We were aware of Caroline's stellar reputation from friends who have worked with her over the years. Each of their stories had the same pattern; she knew what the market wanted, her team knew how to get properties into shape to meet that demand, and with these pillars in place, her negotiation abilities closed deals quickly, exceeding expectations. Happily, we had the exact same experience with our San Carlos property

This was our second time using Caroline Dinsmore as our realtor and once again, it was a great experience! After growing out of the starter home she helped us purchase 8 years ago, we were on the lookout for a bigger house. We wanted to get our starter home in optimal condition to sell quickly and Caroline suggested using the Compass Concierge service to complete renovations. With her team guiding us the whole way, the renovations went smoothly and it was an stress-free process! In addition, she hustled to oversee the painting and staging of our home. Meanwhile, she used her local Bay Area Peninsula

This is my second time working with Caroline and she helped both on the recent sell and buy side. Both transactions were complicated, but Caroline was able to work her way through given her industry experience and professionalism. Was able to get $300k off my current house (in the bay area market, that is no small feat) and an additional $300k over asking on the house we sold. Would recommend!

Caroline is a pro. She works night and day and does it with a smile. She got us 20% more than we expected for our house which is huge, and it sold in 6 days, she has the process like clockwork.
