TESTIMONIALS

See what our clients have to say.

Breck & Jen helped us sell partial ownership in a house that we had previously owned in its entirety. It was virtuoso work not only in terms of finding buyers, but also navigating the closing process, which was made so much more difficult because we had to fractionalize the property and come up with an operating agreement with the buyer. They were truly amazing: by the far the most skilled, professional, and thorough real estate team I've ever worked with.

Tricia, we want you to know how much we appreciate your professionalism and kindness in achieving the close of escrow on our Northstar house. After 12 years of really fun family memories, selling was a tough decision for us; you guiding us through the process helped us rationalize this was the right thing to do at our stage in life. We truly appreciate all your advice, your physical labor and your start to finish management. Right when we listed interest rates went up and the market began to deteriorate, there was even potential buyer’s COVID, but you maintained focus and a positive attitude. Throughout the process you were always watching out for our interest and kept a smile on your face. We would be happy to be a reference for future potential clients.

My family and I recently relocated to the Truckee/Tahoe area for work and were introduced to Breck via a mutual friend and realtor in Park City. Going to a new place and working with someone you don't know to purchase a home is always a big decision, whereas we've always had the luxury of our close friend also being our realtor. Fortunately, things worked in our favor once again as Breck and his team turned out to be wonderful. From the first time we met when we were unsure of our purchase plans, to the quick move with toddler and expecting mother in tow, Breck was there to help us along the way. Always readily available, quick to respond and while making us feel like his only clients. Since settling into our home and the area, Breck has developed into not just a trustworthy partner for us but also a friend. We would highly recommend Breck and his team to anyone who's in search of a realtor... or a friend in Truckee.

Soni was instrumental in helping us find our new home after we lost our past home in the Camp Fire in California. She orchestrated our inspections, review of contracts and offer on our new home like the professional she is! Her efforts helped us get multiple items corrected by the seller that made our transition a breeze. We were so happy with her services that we referred a fellow fire victim who also bought a home through Soni.
– Ray G.
Buyer
Soni is an outstanding marketer and negotiator! She sold our home in less than a week for maximum price! Soni is great to work with from listing to close!
– J O'Neil
Seller
Soni was absolutely fantastic, creating a seamless purchasing experience using her knowledge of the industry and reliable resources in her network. The mortgage broker, title company - all were amazing recommendations from her to create a stress free experience.
– Lori S.
Buyer
My husband and I couldn’t say enough amazing things about working with Soni! We started our home search back in late 2020 in the Reno, NV area. The pandemic was still very much present, and we all remember the tough market buyers were facing! Soni presented us with amazing homes that fit our needs, she was very responsive to our every question and request. She helped us negotiate, put in many competitive offers, never gave up hope for us and was by our side throughout the entire process. She took such a personal approach with us and treated us with care and compassion through every step of the way! We finally found our home, that we’re in love with, and we’re so thankful she was our realtor throughout the process! We’ll absolutely be working with her again in the future and we highly recommend her if you’re searching for your forever home or selling!
– Kaity L.
Buyer
Soni was great to work with! She showed us properties multiple times when we couldn't decide which was best for us. And, she didn't abandon us after the close, helping with a few move-in issues.
– Guy A.
Buyer
Best Realtor ever!!! Soni was so attentive, smart and accountable our entire home buying process. She listened to our needs and always had our best interest in mind. The process wasn’t always easy but she always made us feel like we we were in good hands. We ended up having her sell our house once we moved to our new house and the experience was just as seamless.
– Kimberly M.
Buyer & Seller
We live in a foreign country and worked with Soni via email before our arrival in Reno to communicate our interests for a retirement home. Soni did a fantastic job of listening to our interests and showing us only houses that fit our profile. We found our house the first day and it had everything on our list! Soni has a strong commitment to her clients and went the extra mile to ensure our out of country closing was seamless. She even purchased a home warranty policy for us. Soni knows her business and the market. I cannot praise her work enough!
– Tammy J.
Buyer
Working with Soni was amazing! She was professional, kind, & very organized in the home-buying process. I am a first time- home-buyer & she supported me every step of the way! I am so honored that she was a part of my home buying experience!
– Allison V.
Buyer
Soni is extremely professional with sharp market instincts and strong marketing and negotiation skills. We have worked with Soni both as buyer and seller, and have always felt she has our best interests in mind. Soni gives us advice we need, not just what we want to hear. She is also relationship-first and often goes above-and-beyond to build trust.

Buyer & Seller
My new friend Breck Overall and his team were nothing short of spectacular... The home buying process took about 18 months for us and we never felt rushed or pressured to perform even though it must've felt like an eternity for him and his team. In the end, my family won and landed a fabulous house, in a fantastic location, at the price that we wanted to pay. Job well done guys... high marks for Overall Hamilton Sotheby's... we will see you again on the next one :-)
– Alex M.
Every so often one is lucky enough to deal with an agent that puts forth 100% to ensure a smooth transaction. Not very often at all, do you find an agent that puts forth 110%. Breck put in much more than that and went above and beyond what is commonly expected. I can't tell you how appreciative I am to have him on the "other side". Although it didn't feel like the other side.
– Dave F.
Broker/Owner, iResidential Realty
Breck was wonderful...from our very informative initial market meeting to the detailed guidance during the closing process. We called Breck during off hours and he either answered our phone call or called us back in a very short time period. Breck & his team kept us informed throughout the sale process. We couldn't be happier.
– Gregg T.
Seller
With Jeremy's extensive history and experience in selling, not only real estate, but also the North Lake Tahoe/Truckee region from a tourism perspective, his ability to go "beyond just the house" and educate both sellers and buyers on living the lifestyle of Tahoe is a huge benefit. And his professionalism and attention to detail in the actual process of selling and buying are on-point. I listed and sold my Truckee home while living in Colorado, and Jeremy removed any concerns regarding being "distanced" from the process...we were in step the entire way and it was a very smooth process. Highly recommended.
– John M.
Exceptional agent. Outstanding in every respect. Jeremy walked us through the entire process from defining our needs and desires to searching for and purchasing that perfect property. His work ethic is beyond any real estate agent we have ever worked with in our multi year, multi residences history while serving around the world in the US Navy. His history of representing the Truckee area and his love for it gave us the confidence we needed to know that, as out of state buyers, we were in the best hands. It is my honor and pleasure to recommend Jeremy as the perfect Full Service Real Estate agent in Truckee.
– Dave and Deborah M.
We were referred to Jeremy from another realtor, which is a plus to begin with. Jeremy helped us through an exchange sale, which can be more detailed than other sales. Selling a second home can be difficult if you are not close by, like us. Jeremy made our pre-listing checklist very complete so we were able to get the home on the market very quickly. He knew all the local guidelines and requirements that can hold up a timed sale like an exchange sale. I can not recommend Jeremy highly enough. He made the process so easy and worry free. His follow ups and communications were complete and well composed. His attention to details made the process so easy. His knowledge of local markets and pricing helped us get the best price and helped sell quickly. Jeremy is wonderful and professional.
– Ed and Leslie R.
We were introduced to Breck and the team from an agent in the Bay Area, who said he was the best in Tahoe. We have to say that he did not disappoint. The inventory was very sparse and we felt like he had a good pulse on the market. He was very patient and advised us well through the process. We ended up in a bidding war, but ultimately got our dream house in Tahoe. Because of the buying process and high demand, we had to take all of the furniture as well, which we did not need. Breck and his wife worked extremely hard to help us give away and remove all the furniture, which was above and beyond the call of duty. Because of Breck, we found a slice of Tahoe that we love and the move in process went much more smoothly because of his efforts. Thank you!
– Mike B. - Buyer
We feel so lucky to have been introduced to Breck by our selling agent in the Bay Area. He was hugely responsive to our desire to buy a family home in Truckee in a short timescale, and showed great flexibility during our search, giving us both the space and time we needed to refine what we were looking for. Throughout the process, Breck gave us honest and genuine guidance both on property value and lifestyle nuances across Truckee’s neighborhoods and his wisdom and knowledge of the area was invaluable to us. He pulled comps late into the night, drove across town to meet us at a moment’s notice many times, and ultimately worked extremely hard to help us find our new home. We feel strongly that both his honesty and integrity were key; we ultimately bid on a very competitive property and were able to trust and follow his advice through the buying process without hesitation. Our success in winning the house was entirely attributable to his sensitive and careful negotiation, his long-standing relationships with his colleagues, and his hard work on behalf of his clients. We will always be hugely grateful to him for our beautiful new home.
– Camilla M. - Buyer
I have done several transactions with Breck and am currently working on another. Breck is a tremendous resource to leverage, especially for an out-of-town buyer. Breck works tirelessly for you and will take your calls and texts at literally almost any time of the day or night. He is able to keep you informed about the market and any new opportunities that fit your criteria. If you see a property you like online, Breck will quickly preview that property for you and even arrange for an online session where he can virtually walk you through the property. His knowledge of the area is unsurpassed and he will find you the right property in the area that is best for you. Above all else, he consistently asks for feedback and LISTENS. Breck is invaluable and a tremendous partner.
– Buyer
We have been looking for a second home for years in the Truckee area and recently found the cabin/home we had been looking for. It was a long haul and we got lucky when we met Breck. We did not know of Breck prior to looking for a property. We got lucky meeting him when we walked into the office up at the village. We had talked with several other agents prior to meeting Breck. Breck learned what we wanted, was patient, educated us on the market and most importantly, showed us all our options so when an opportunity finally presented itself we were ready to make an offer and buy. We were able to make an offer immediately when a property came up on the market.. That was only because of Breck educating us on the market, informing us the minute the property came up on the market and preparing an offer immediately. Right after we got our offer in several others followed. Because of Breck's relationships and follow-up we were able to buy the property with our original agreement with the owner. If you want a knowledgeable and proactive real estate broker that cares you will find those characteristics in Breck.
– Buyer
My wife and I recently got married in Tahoe and with family in the area we were hoping to buy a home in Truckee. Our family recommended Breck and Jeff to help us find a home and they really came through! Our first time out with Breck looking at homes he really listened to the things we liked and disliked in each place and took note. One day he contacted us and let us know that he "found our home." Since we were living in the Bay Area Breck even went to the house he found for us and Face timed us to show us. We came up that weekend saw the house and put an offer in. Throughout the process Breck and Team provided super fast communication, excellent expertise in the market, and an overall amazing home buying experience. We have been living in our home for a few months now and Breck could not have been more correct when he initially told us that he found the house for us. We hope to be in this house for a while, but if/when the time comes we will absolutely contact Breck for help with our next home. Thanks again Breck!
– Buyer
Jeff made a more challenging transaction come together fairly and flawlessly. He knew exactly what we were hoping to find, and relying on his guidance and intimate insight to the Truckee market we were able to negotiate our perfect mountain home. He also marketed and sold our existing home, and his entire team was overwhelmingly supportive through both transactions. I never worried about all the moving parts and deadlines that needed attention. Jeff and his team were on it. His earnest professionalism, local knowledge and approachability make Jeff someone we would use again- this is our third transaction,and highly recommend to anyone wishing to buy or sell a home!
– Seller
My husband and I had made the difficult decision to sell our Tahoe home which we had the good fortune to enjoy for almost 40 years. We feel very fortunate that we were able to have Breck Overall and his team at Sierra Sothebys as our agent. His knowledge and expertise about the Tahoe housing market is impressive, which I am sure other agent have. What sets him apart is his warmth and understanding of how difficult this process was. He made this journey as easy as was possible. He was always available to answer any questions, kept our spirits up when we got a little discouraged and provided us with excellent advise when decisions had to be made. There is not enough space to say all the great things about Breck and his team. They are the best!
– Seller
My Wife and I met Breck by chance when we saw his name on the sign at the vacation home we eventually bought through him. He was immediately responsive (came to the home to meet us within 20 minutes of our first seeing it) and responsive throughout as the transaction proceeded though closing. We recognize that most of these recommendations sound the same and often over the top, but at that risk I will say that Breck was one of the most professional, knowledgeable and gracious brokers I have dealt with. Turns out we had some post-closing issues and Breck was on them even though the transaction had already closed (when many brokers forget your name!). We also engaged Breck to sell another home we owned in the area. Same level of professionalism, great result. I could not recommend Breck more highly. Really.
– Buyer
Breck and his team did an outstanding job in helping us sell our Tahoe Donner home. Their professionalism and communication during the process was remarkable! Breck's knowledge of the market and the resources available to him helped us sell our home in less than 30 days, where previously it had been on the market with another broker for over three months. The weekly Activity updates were very helpful too! We would definitely recommend Breck and his team to prospective buyers or sellers looking to purchase or sell a home or property in the future!
– Seller
Breck came to us highly recommended and it didn’t take long to understand why: it took no more than 10 days from our first meeting with him to finding the perfect property and getting an offer accepted. Him and his team made the escrow process stress-free: they were always available to answer questions as they came up and to represent us in a timely manner when we wanted to engage with the seller. We couldn’t be more thankful to Breck for his expertise, attention to detail and professionalism. We owe him our beautiful home!
– Buyer
We just closed on a home in kings beach and I can not say enough great things about breck and his team. He was on top of everything, from writing the offer, to scheduling and showing up for inspection and giving us guidance with numerous aspects of the transactions, He was always available to talk, took proactive steps to make sure everything was going smoothly and stayed in touch every step of the way. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking in the area.
– Buyer
My Husband and I are in the process of considering a sale of our Tahoe home. I have been extremely impressed by their responsiveness to our many questions and concerns. They have educated us on the local Tahoe market, made improvement suggestions for sale purposes as well as what to leave alone. They stay in regular touch, however, they also give us space and time to think about our direction. I would highly recommend this team.
– Seller
Breck made the entire process as seamless as possible. He communicated effectively and regularly, he got our home excellent exposure, he provided professional service during a process that can sometimes be very stressful. His knowledge of the Tahoe area is extensive with important contacts that were helpful during our sales process. I would highly recommend Breck for your real estate needs and will use him again!
– Seller
My family and I have dreamed of owning a vacation home in the Truckee area for years. We met Breck Overall at a home opening, hit it off from the start, and built a strong partnership which made our dream come true. Breck’s superior market knowledge and incredible patience were critical in us deciding on our investment. We are thrilled with our new vacation home, many thanks to Breck!
– Buyer
Have know Breck for many, many years and have always been overly impressed with what a great job he does. He's handled several transactions for me in the greater Truckee area and it's because of his through professionalism and ongoing focus of all details on both the buying and selling side. Would highly recommend for any type of real state deal.
– Buyer/Seller
Breck helped me with my recent home purchase in Truckee. I can say definitively that the smoothness of the process ( it went very well) was due to his diligence and proactive approach. I will 100% use Breck for any future real state transactions couldn't recommend him more.
– Buyer
Breck is tireless in his efforts to meet the needs of his clients. He goes beyond the extra mile. A pleasure to have him represent us. He held open houses, helped us stage the property and worked hard to negotiate the best deal for us.

Breck was everything you want in a real estate agent - knowledgeable about the area and process of buying a house, honest, patience and a good sense of humor. Would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a house.
