Barb's Bold Journey To A New Home

I would not have made it through the many facets of the sale and purchase without her knowledge and professionalism.  - Barb G.

In the bustling world of real estate, where dreams are often tethered by the harsh realities of the market, Barb's story emerges as a testament to perseverance, connections, and the magic of finding just the right place to call home. Barb, a high school acquaintance of Tami Jo, found herself at a crossroads, contemplating the daunting task of downsizing and purchasing a new home simultaneously. With no immediate plans to sell her existing home and a clear vision of what she wanted in her next chapter, Barb's journey was nothing short of a tightrope walk over the vast canyon of the real estate market.

Tami Jo, armed with years of experience and a vast network of relationships within the real estate community, was the beacon of hope Barb needed. Their collaboration turned into a strategic quest to find a property that not only spoke to Barb's heart but also aligned with the intricate logistics of a concurrent close. The challenge was formidable, requiring a delicate balance of timing, negotiation, and unwavering determination.

The story unfolds with Tami Jo at the helm, navigating through open houses, engaging with fellow agents, and orchestrating a symphony of moving parts. The agent representing the property Barb had set her eyes on became an unlikely ally, thanks to Tami Jo's communication skills and the shared goal of making their clients' dreams a reality. This alliance was the cornerstone of the complex negotiation process, paving the way for a solution that seemed almost too good to be true.

After weeks of strategic planning, discussions, and adjustments, the day of the concurrent close arrived. It was a culmination of efforts, a moment where every piece of the puzzle fell into place, allowing Barb to transition seamlessly from her old home to the new one. This story is a vivid illustration of how expertise, empathy, and collaboration can turn the tide in favor of those daring to chase their dreams, even in a sluggish market.

Marion Wall (Buyer)

Elizabeth was the perfect realtor for us. She worked tirelessly to identify the right property, provided us excellent summaries of each, and nothing phased her. We unfortunately were in and out of several transactions (through no fault of hers) before finally closing. Each time, her preparation and enthusiastic spirit helped bridge gaps such as poor seller communication. We also loved that she was so knowledgeable in construction and renovation because it helped us determine what was important to concentrate on in a prospective property (versus strictly aesthetic factors).
Elizabeth was in our corner every step of the way. We are very pleased with the property that we finally purchased and Elizabeth's advocacy and good judgment helped in what was a fairly stressful transaction due to an issue with the financing. If you are looking for a well connected, personable, and knowledgeable realtor then we recommend her without hesitation.

Brandon and Allie K., Simi Valley, CA

5-star experience all the way around. Tami was solid. She never made us feel pressured and really treated us like family instead of a client. She made the process easy for a 1st timer buyer in an incredibly hectic marketplace. She has very strong communication skills and never leaves your questions unanswered. Though I never intend to buy a house again, if I did, I would choose Tami again and I’d recommend her to anyone in search of an agent.

 

Caren and Kevin G., Oxnard, CA

Amazing Job Tami was the Realtor for this sale which was for my father-in-law. He is elderly and had lost his wife and was selling their home and moving into a retirement community. A very personal and emotional sale. Tami was absolutely amazing. Not only in her abilities as a Realtor where she got a great price and in record time, but her kindness, patience and genuine compassion to my father-in-law is above and beyond any expectations. He fell in love with Tami Simon!!! Thank you so much for all you did.

 

Yatish and Khusbu B., Westlake Village, CA

Amazing Experience Tami was extremely knowledgeable and patient with us throughout our entire experience. We started a little sporadically not really knowing what it was we exactly wanted. We were also concerned with buying in such a competitive market, however, through Tami’s guidance, we were able to not only find our dream home but also win the offer as per her expertise. We also had some issues with our lender (NOT at a recommendation through Tami, but through my work) and she was a rock star at moving things along. She and kept the line of communication open with our lenders and the sellers to keep everyone calm (especially me) throughout the whole process and we ended up with our DREAM home! We are so thankful to have worked with her!

 

Christie and Archie S., Thousand Oaks, CA

Patricia F., Newbury Park, CA

Tami's patience and professionalism as well as knowledge of the market helped me make on of the most important decisions of my life with ease and comfort. Here I am in my new home a year and a half later and I could not be happier. I recommend Tami to anyone thinking about buying/selling a home and want someone they can trust to guide them through the process.

 

Andy D., Simi Valley, CA

Tami Proffer Simon and Chris helped me find my new condo in only one day! They had a great list of places to see that were in my price-range without trying to get me to see things that were more than I could afford. I appreciated that. Tami also was readily available to answer all of my "new buyer" questions and if she didn't have the answer, she got it for me. She was always available either by phone or email and responded quickly. Tami went above and beyond expectations to help me get things taken care of for the condo, from introducing me to a mortgage contact and arranging the inspector to getting a carpet cleaning quote, she was a wealth of resources. As a first-time buyer, Tami made it very easy to understand the timing of things, what to expect in the process and made it way easier than I ever expected it to be. One day I'm looking at condos and 29 days later I'm a new homeowner! Whether you're a first-time buyer or not, I would highly recommend Tami as your Realtor.

 

Gary and Robin H., Simi Valley, CA

My husband and I met Tami through mutual friends, and she invited us to a first-time home buyer's seminar. We were so impressed with the wealth of Knowledge Tami and her associates provided that we decided to enlist her help when we were ready to purchase a home. She made the home buying process so easy that our escrow was only 21 days! We love our new home and have recommended Tami to everyone we know that is need of a real estate agent.

Tim and Cheryl D., Thousand Oaks, CA

Tami Simon did an over-and-above sale of our house. She marketed it effectively, negotiated excellently, insuring us the best outcome. She stuck with us the ENTIRE process exceeding escrow. ABOVE AND BEYOND.

Ron and Lisa B., Thousand Oaks, CA

My experience with Tami Proffer Simon was simply outstanding. My husband and I have used Tami several times in the past and would never consider using anyone else. Tami worked with us on a very personal basis and helped us to understand what we really wanted and needed. Her listening skills are impeccable! Tami is knowledgeable, patient, and always available at any given time of the day or night. She was always available on short notice to take us to see potential homes. Her local area knowledge and networking is top notch! You will not find a more professional, competent, driven agent in this area. We simply could not have done this without her!! 

 

Torsten and Shannon S., Simi Valley, CA

Our journey to our dream of home ownership was a long one. The market was competitive, and it was discouraging at times to be so close to landing the home of our dreams, only to miss out to a slightly higher offer at the 11th hour. Even at our most despondent, Tami and Chris stuck by us the whole way and didn’t rest until we did in fact find, and successfully purchase, our dream home. We can strongly and unequivocally recommend their services as your real estate advisors.

 

Patricia M., Thousand Oaks, CA

I have worked with Tami Simon on several real estate transactions and have always found her to be thorough and professional through the entire process. I have also recommended her to several friends who have used her services with positive results. I would not hesitate to use Tami again in any future transactions.

 

Leo and Becky T., Westlake Village, CA and Thousand Oaks, CA

Tami was incredible to work with. She was so quick and smart in handling every situation that arises with the inspection, multiple offers, etc. She truly fought to get us the BEST deal. She truly works to make her clients happy. We were absolutely thrilled to work with her and would work with her again in a heartbeat. We absolutely loved working with Tami. She was so knowledgeable, smart, and made everything so easy for us! She fought for us in many situations and only wanted the best for us! She sold our place so quickly and over asking price! We couldn't believe it!!!! She is amazing! I would call Tami with questions early in the morning, late at night, etc. and she was always quick to respond. She is great to work with and understood how important this sale was to us. We would definitely use her again! I have passed her name on to other friends and family members

 

Brian and Sandy N., Thousand Oaks, CA

We would like to take a moment to comment on the wonderful experience we recently had selling our home under the management of Tami Simon. After making the commitment to sell we invited Tami into our home to plan our sale. She clearly explained every aspect of our sale, from marketing strategy through contracts and commissions and closing. As we were placing our home on the market at a time when more offerings were appearing it was important to have an aggressive campaign and attractive pricing. And, as we had not had the property for a long period of time it was also important that the sale price be fixed to cover all costs associated with the sale. Tami met all of our needs and an offer was placed and accepted within 1.5 weeks of the initial listing. We find this quite remarkable as when we purchased the property it had been on the market for several months at a price substantially lower than our final sale figure, and in a market that was starved for similar properties. We attribute our rapid sale to Tami’s marketing strategy and confident business demeanor. We would also like to add that there was minimal inconvenience associated with the sale, we were kept well informed of all progress, and Tami even made sure that everything went well even after the sale. We strongly recommend Tami to those serious about selling their home and would imagine that an equally strong recommendation would be in order for those thinking of purchasing a property.

 

Mickie P., Irvine, CA and Simi Valley, CA

Tami came highly recommended by my daughter, and she proved to be everything that was promised. We actually sold my old property 5 times which was amazing. The only thing that stopped 4 of them from going thru was that we could not find a property that fit my requirements as they are few and far between. Tami did an excellent job from the start to the finish. Tami, along with her partner, Chris, went out of their way to make things as easy for me as possible. The best thing, other than the real estate transactions was that I have made two new friends for life.

 

Ran Z., Westlake Village, CA

I think Tami was a great agent for us. We were out of the country for most of the escrow period, and Tami really took charge and made closing possible! 

 

Dean and Marisol H., Sherman Oaks, CA

Tami Jo did a fantastic job selling our house!

Tami Jo did a fantastic job selling our house. She is very knowledgeable, professional and an absolute pleasure to work with. Because of her expertise, we received multiple offers and sold our house quickly and for much more than we were asking for. I would highly recommend Tami Jo Colburn to anyone who is buying or selling their home and we will definitely use her services again if the opportunity arises.

 

Anne and Carlos K., Moorpark, CA

Superior Realtor! She wisely planned the entire sale and expertly advised us all along the way. Her description of our house was so enticing and inviting to buyers. It was a seamless process with Tami at the helm! She’s the BEST!

 

Bobby and Lia J., Westlake Village, CA

Having Tami Jo as our Realtor was a positive experience from start to finish

Selling a family home is stressful and I really appreciated Tami’s calm, considerate, professional style. She quickly put me at ease, because of her knowledge of all aspects of the real estate market. She was very helpful getting us more organized in preparing for the sale. She was quick to respond to every question I had. Tami would check in to see how we were doing and if she could help in any way.

 

Jon and Dawn M., Westlake Village, CA

Tami Jo represented my husband and myself in the purchase of our home in Westlake Village.

Tami Jo is an exemplary Realtor! From the beginning of this process, her communication skills were everything you would hope to find in the very best of the real estate profession. She has a wealth of experience, market knowledge and background in policy and procedures along with attention to detail at every step. We built a positive and trustworthy relationship with Tami Jo quickly and felt confident that she would represent us well throughout the process. And she did!!! She followed through on everything we asked her to do to finalize this sale and realize our answer to prayer. We are deeply appreciative for all she did for us!!! She was amazing!

 

Barbara G., Thousand Oaks, CA

Tami Jo Colburn is a fantastic Agent! Tami assisted me with the sale of my Wildwood condo, and the purchase of my Arbor Lane condo in Thousand Oaks. She helped me through every step of the way, during some stressful times as this was not a common transaction (contingent on sale of my property). Tami was always on top of the next steps, and her expertise in guiding me through both transactions was top notch. I would not have made it through the many facets of the sale and purchase without her knowledge and professionalism.

Francis and Devra, Chatsworth, CA and Simi Valley, CA

We were referred to Tami by our mortgage consultant. At the very start, Tami made sure that we knew what was going to happen at each step of the process. She presented excellent options at each step and helped to work through each negotiation and decision. She has a wealth of knowledge and also contacts that helped with the sale and purchase. I would highly recommend her due to her professionalism, knowledge, experience, and patience. It was a pleasure working with her.
