Ernie and Rick provided extrodinary real estate service. Their attention to detail was most impressive. They determined what was necessary and left no stone unturned. It was as if I was their only client and when it the deal was at conculsion their skills were tops. I have lived in twenty residences and Ernie and Rick were the best brokers I have ever had.

I worked with Vanessa in purchasing a home in the Bay Area and could not be happier with her assistance throughout the process. I found a fixer upper and decided to apply for the 203k Standard loan to get some much needed maintenance work completed before I move in. If you don't know, this is a pretty lengthy loan process (which we both learned throughout!). From the beginning, Vanessa was able to research the necessary steps, provide answers and support when the process was slowed down, and provided prompt service when I needed it. She coached me through the offer, was diligent in her follow up with the seller's agent, and made me feel confident that everything would work out. She has a relaxed approach and is unflappable - anytime I felt nervous about the next steps, she was a calming voice. As a first-time homebuyer, this was crucial. I feel lucky to have been introduced to her and know that if we hadn't been successful, we would have continued to work together until I found a home that worked for me in my price range. Thanks!

Sexton group worked with me on buying my first home in Joshua Tree. They are a fantastic team. I loved working with Tanya Jones, who was cutting her teeth as an agent and let me tell you, she is a natural - very grounded, professional, and warm (which I needed). Buying my first home, right before and during COVID-19, was overwhelming. Jason Wizelman was my broker; he's an ace. He walked me through all the insane amounts of paperwork in a way that made it less of a chore and more of a guide to the other side. Ernie Sexton is the owner and one of the friendliest people I've met. If there was a nuanced question about real estate Ernie is the person to ask, he's brilliant. What I appreciated most about the team is their level of support - they were communicative and available when I needed them. My big tip as a first-time buyer would be to work with a team that can understand you and what you're looking for in a professional and caring way - that's Sexton Group.

Tanya Jones with the Sexton Group was exceeding helpful in facilitating our return to Sonoma County from Virginia. At that time we desired rural property and she not only provided us with pictures and videos that were not otherwise available, but also added invaluable insight on the areas and overall property condition and was a tremendous help in completing the process which was done entirely remotely. We love the place she found for us, and now that we have gotten, older are enlisting her support to find us a smaller place that is more centrally located. We know Tanya will be sensitive to our needs and will find us our forever home.
