DELIVERING FABULOUS WINS FOR ALL OF MY CLIENTS If you are thinking about making a move, or would just like to chat about our changing Bay Area market, Call Me. . . I am here to help! “Rebecca Jepsen came highly recommended, and from the very first meeting we knew she was the agent for us! Not only is she incredibly professional and knowledgeable, she truly cares about her clients. It was difficult for us to leave the home that we loved, but Rebecca handled all the details along the way including repairs, upgrades, and landscaping. More importantly, she instilled calm in what is normally a tumultuous transition and her positive energy and beautiful smile really kept us going. We were amazed with the results – she sold our home in just one week at more than $500K over our asking price! Rebecca we can’t thank you enough! If you are thinking about selling, call Rebecca.” ~Carol & Bob D, Palo Alto
