With a transaction as large as selling a house, you want to be comfortable and assured that it proceeds as planned. Katie explained all the steps from the initial listing to the final close. She communicated with me every step, whether it was a quick text or a phone call. Her handling of the sale made for a stress free sale.

Raven was so knowledgeable and had answers to every question we had. This was a sale that included four siblings so there were several of us to communicate with, and Raven never missed a step in keeping us all informed. She got the house into tip top shape, coordinated many many details and inspections, and got us a great price in a short time. I recommend Raven without reservation! Laura

Katie took us on knowing we were first time home buyers with no experience.
She accompanied us with our lender and answered a thousand questions we has patiently. She expertly asked us pertinent questions, getting us to focus on our wants, desires and needs in a house... then took us out looking at homes and pointing out important (to us) observations to further our knowledge in home buying. She worked around our crazy schedule and kept our spirits up when the market looked slow.
When we found a home we adored, Katie went to work, networking, writing the perfect offer and finding the answer to all the questions we had. She recommended inspectors, helped us set up appointments (and met us for those as well), making sure all of our questing and concerns were answered.
Katie always stayed in contact with us, answered texts almost immediately and was so helpful and pleasant to work with!
I would 100% recommend her! She helped us feel confident and in control AND got us in our forever home!

Very professional, very competent. Raven rose to the task of coordinating the requests of the four co-owners (sellers) of our house.
Communications were timely and complete. She and staff were a pleasure to work with in negotiating on our behalf and resolving issues with the buyers and the city of Davis. Thank you for your commitment to excellence.

Raven was a referral from our realtor in Hawaii. We instantly connected. We started chatting probably a year before we moved, and she was attentive to all of our questions about purchasing a home in California. She patiently waited until we were ready and then walked us through the search and the purchase every step of the way. We love our new home she helped us find and highly recommend her services. We are settling in our new home now, but I know she is only a text away and a quick response if I still have any questions!

I can not thank Raven enough for all her dedicated hard work for helping me purchase my new home in Dixon.
From start to finish her knowledge of the area, all the paperwork and working with my mortgage company was made so easy for me.
She was in constant contact and available to me any time I texted or phoned.
She helped me out when I was unavailable to be at the house for all the inspections and made all the appointments.
I would highly recommend Raven to anyone who is looking for a home in the Dixon area. She is a huge asset to your company. And I have a new friend!
Thank you Raven...you are awesome.!!

I cannot say enough about Katie as a realtor. She has gone 100% above and beyond for her customer, which happens to be my customer through an estate sale as well. She has spent hours of her time helping during this entire process. I've witnessed how she interacts with the owners and she is very knowledgeable and kind.
I surely hope to work with Katie again. It would be my pleasure.

FYI: This is not a standard review
Katie is the heroine as written below.
Walking hand in hand through the reality of Realty
Expressing loving kindness with a heart full of knowledge
Mediator in battles, not of war but of words
Honesty prevailing as strategy begins:
Establishing an environment through wisdom and charm
Excelling in leadership skills, dignity and grace
Sharing line by line within
Revealing the text
Bringing light into darkness
Standing firm on her counsel
Being present until all parties agree
Meeting a notary at the end of the day
Signing final documents
Sending him on his way
Calling to check in whenever needed
Breathing in and out was her only advice
Katie is the Queen of Realty
Calling her today will change your life

Exceeded all expectations! Raven really did make selling my home effortless and was always available to assist and answer questions. Her consistency in the process made me feel very comfortable and that I had the right person on my team.

From the moment I decided to sell my home, Katie Pleger demonstrated an exceptional level of professionalism, care, and attention to detail. She guided me through every step of the process, ensuring that I felt confident and informed. Selling a home can be incredibly overwhelming, but Katie made it feel manageable and even exciting. I never felt like I had unanswered questions—and if I did, she provided clear, timely responses that kept everything on track.
This wasn’t just any house—it was the home my children saw as their very first. There was a lot of emotion wrapped up in the decision to sell, and Katie showed incredible patience and compassion as we worked through that. She never pushed us but gave us the time and space we needed to be truly ready. Her support through that emotional process made all the difference. It wasn’t just a transaction to her—it was a journey she walked with us, and I’ll always be grateful for that.
One of the most impressive aspects of Katie's service was how she handled my unique situation. I was preparing to leave the country during the transaction, and she proactively had all necessary documentation signed in advance to ensure that timelines were met without delay. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing that I could travel without worrying about anything falling through the cracks. Her ability to anticipate potential challenges and prepare for them ahead of time truly speaks to her expertise and commitment to her clients.
We also faced a particularly tricky situation with a broken cabinet door that, due to unforeseen circumstances, was going to take several weeks to fix—right in the middle of the selling process. While it was a stressful issue for both of us, Katie managed it with grace and professionalism. She communicated clearly with the buying agent, explained the situation honestly, and reassured all parties that the repair was underway. Her calm and poised approach has made for a positive experience for everyone involved.
Beyond the logistics, the aesthetic presentation of my home was truly incredible. The staging was absolutely stunning—elegant, warm, and inviting. The professional photos were so beautiful I almost didn’t want to move! Katie's eye for design, along with the expert team she brought in, made my house shine in a way I could never have imagined. Her communication with the title company and everyone involved was seamless. I always felt supported and in the loop. I would wholeheartedly recommend Katie Pleger to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. I’m already looking forward to working with her again when I purchase my next home—there’s no one else I would trust more with something so important.

Amanda is hands down the best in the business! I live in southern CA and wasn’t hopeful about selling a house in northern CA due to various factors limiting my ability to get it sell-ready and eventually vacated. Amanda didn’t blink an eye and helped me through it all while I traveled back and forth. Even when I became overwhelmed, she was positive and reassured me the whole time. Amanda’s experience, knowledge, strategic mindset, kindness, and good energy made a potentially chaotic process so much simpler. She was always available to answer questions for the sake of my sanity. I’ve worked with many agents in my life, but I will never work with anyone else after this experience. I am looking to purchase a home in the next few months for my parents, and I’m looking forward to working with Amanda on that process! Thank you, Amanda!

I couldn’t say enough to describe the amazing person/ agent Raven is. Raven was so kind, patient, informative and knowledgeable. This was my very first home purchase Raven and her team were nothing short of amazing. If I had to write Raven I would give her a 15 out of 10 because 10 we’re just not be good enough. If you’re looking to buy a home I would recommend Raven in a heartbeat.

Katie is a very personable professional. She worked with us through the buying process of our new to us home. Helping us through the entire process with under that this is our first home purchase. Katie and her team of professionals assisted us through the process and took extra time and effort to make sure we had everything we needed and recommended other teams to help with repairs that were needed to make the house a home. My wife and I are extremely appreciative of everything she has done for us.

Katie is an awesome realtor. She helped me sell one home and purchase another. I found her to be very knowledgeable and communicative. She explained the process and let me know what to expect.

Katie was not only our realtor, but also our coach. All of her efforts were focused on what was best for us. She is very detail-oriented and a master of communication. She always asked for our input, but also offered advice when appropriate. Katie is a great listener, and has vast knowledge of the “up to date” real estate business. Her enthusiasm is contagious. She is passionate about her business and is quick to share her knowledge. Most importantly, Katie is filled with honesty and truth. We never imagined that the experience would move so smoothly.

Raven did an excellent job helping us sell our parents' 50 year old home in Dixon. She identified a good sales price and gave helpful recommendations for improvements that would help the house to sell. She met with inspectors and contractors, doing whatever she could to get the house on the market quickly. Her interactions with us were always professional and timely. I strongly recommend her.

Katie Pleger did en excellent job of selling my brothers home under very complicated circumstances dealing with my power of attorney for Edgar.

Katie and her crew did a great job helping our family navigate a difficult time after the passing of my father. Her experience and knowledge made selling our home a breeze. Katie is very professional and made sure we understood everything and was able to answer all our questions throughout the transaction. I highly recommend her. Thanks again Katie, it was a pleasure doing business with you.

Katie is phenomenal at what she does. More than a realtor, she showed us kindness and compassion also. Her attention to detail in the sale of my mothers home was very comforting. We knew what was happening or going to happen every step of the way. Throughout the entire process nothing fazed her. Knowing your trade is one thing but she consistently went above the nuts and bolts of the sale. We knew what was going on daily and with a genuine concern for my mothers and my emotions as we proceeded through the preparation of the house and sale. Updates and messages were often done in person rather than an email or text. She would go out of her way to make sure we understood everything that was transpiring and never tried to rush our meetings. I cannot recommend her highly enough. We always enjoyed our visits and meetings. We were number one and the most important thing she was doing. I could have easily become an emotional wreck but I did not have to do any hard lifting, situations were explained and everything went so smoothly for us. Thank you, Katie!

Raven was the Best! My Mom always said she wanted Raven to sell her house because they were neighbors. But my brother who had moved to Davis the year before wanted his realtor. I already had talked to Raven because she came over to giver her condolences and advice. So I asked us to all to meet, She was so great & he was very impressed as soon as she left he said she's great! Let her know we would like her to sell the house. She would text me (or us) or call with any question we had. I couldn't have done it with out her! I very much recommend her & just adore her!! I think we will now be friends!

From start to finish Katie was fantastic. As first time buyers she made the process smoother than we thought it could be. She gave us a lot of information at the beginning but broke it down step by step in a way that made the process go from looking like a daunting list of tasks to cross off to a walk in the park.
She was always positive and on top of where we were in the process on her side and with our lender. There were a couple places that were scooped up that we wanted causing us to drift into disheartened territory. But Katie was able to keep our eyes on the prize. With each house we didnt get the next one was that much better. Like they say "the third times the charm" the 3rd house we were dead set on we ended up closing on.
Thanks to Katie and her consistent communication with our lender and my wife and I, we were even able to close earlier than expected.
If we decide to buy again she will definitely be our number 1 pick!
