COMMUNITY REAL ESTATE 5610 Scotts Valley Drive, Scotts Valley, CA 95066

"We can’t say enough about Matt and Mandy Draper of Community Real Estate. In past years when we attended various open houses, we ran into them several times and were very impressed with their expertise, professionalism and friendliness. Fast-forward a few years when we made a commitment to look for our forever home and we turned to Matt and Mandy to represent us. Right from the start, we knew that we had made a very wise choice. They walked us through the process of prepping our house for sale and the purchase of a new home. With both Matt and Mandy’s extensive construction backgrounds and ability to coordinate various projects, we felt very comfortable when repairs or updates were necessary. We always felt that they listened to us and had our best interests at heart through every step of the buying and selling process. All communications were clear, productive and timely. We highly recommend Matt and Mandy Draper to anyone looking to buy or sell property."

"To say Mandy Draper and her team went above and beyond to sell our house is an understatement. Not only was the marketing of our home both top notch and affordable we got advice on everything associated with preparing the home and our move. In the end we took an approach of "let's just do whatever Mandy tells us" as her advice and strategy were always spot on. We were not easy client, with our decision to sell a difficult one, but she was endlessly patient over a period of many months. Most importantly we really think we got the best price possible for the home thanks to her preparations and negotiations."

"Mandy and Matt are awesome! They helped me sell my father’s house, which had not been updated in 50 years. They provided some suggestions for improvements to maximize value. Since l live out of town, they also help coordinated the work that needed to be done…I was so grateful. Also, communication was prompt and thorough. We own a rental home in the area and if we were to sell, I would immediately list it with Mandy and Matt."

"Mandy and Matt Draper at Community Real Estate are consummate professionals who provided expert guidance at every step of the way in selling our property. We had inherited the property in terrible shape, and Mandy and Matt helped us with everything from complete disaster clean-up to landscaping in order to prepare it for sale. They were thorough and thoughtful regarding every step of the process, communicated clearly and kept us informed, and had the highest level of integrity. They dealt creatively and professionally with a couple of unanticipated glitches that arose during the closing, and the property ultimately sold for a price well above the listing price. I cannot speak highly enough of the dedication, skill, and professionalism of Mandy and Matt at Community Real Estate. Their service was exceptional!"

"Community Real Estate are absolutely the best. Mandy and Matt exceeded every expectation we have in a real estate group. They helped us not only find the perfect house in 2018, but also provided essential guidance which allowed us to avoid homes that showed well but didn’t match our lifestyle in the long run. They are the gold standard for service. When we moved in 2021, I was in the middle of a large transition at work and my wife’s health prevented her from taking on many of the tasks needed to get the house on the market. Again, Mandy, Matt and their incredible network of tradesmen blew us away. I can’t over estimate how much work Mandy oversaw over several months to have the house painted, deck repaired, lawn prepared, and a myriad of other minor repairs and decoration. On top of it all, the thing we’ll miss the most is their friendship and easy way of handling everything. Mandy knows how to make sure important things get attention without adding stress or anxiety to the picture. And despite the challenges of moving…the process of buying, maintaining and selling our house with Mandy and team has been a total pleasure. We’ve loved Scotts Valley, but it takes a lot of experience with the area homes, communities and habitats to find the perfect fit. We’ve bought and sold with others, and they’re the best and only reference we make in the area."
