- Sierra Player was incredible. I’m writing this on behalf of my father-in-law, who decided to sell his home as-is, including the contents—60 years’ worth of belongings. While the house was beautiful, it came with some challenges. Sierra navigated every aspect of the sale with remarkable expertise, professionalism, and forward momentum. She went far above and beyond what most agents would do. No one will work harder on your behalf. Not only did she handle the complete clean-out of the home, but she also marketed the property with exceptional care and attention. From start to finish, Sierra guided us through each step of the process, negotiating tough situations with grace and determination, and staying fully engaged through the close of escrow. We would highly recommend Sierra as a top real estate professional in the region. If you’re looking to buy or sell, seriously, don’t waste time—just call Sierra. She truly offers full-service support and will make the entire process smooth, effective, and as stress-free as possible.Maria Ferro
- We had the absolute best experience buying our home thanks to our incredible real estate agent Sierra Player! From day one, she went above and beyond for us in every way. She helped us negotiate $35,000 off the list price, secured an additional $4,000 in repairs, and made sure we fully understood every step of the process even stepping in to clarify things our lender failed to explain. She was always flexible, showing us multiple homes more than once! and always working around my husband’s and my schedule. Her communication was next-level we never had to follow up or ask where things stood because she was always one step ahead. We felt supported, informed, and genuinely cared for throughout the entire process. If you're looking for someone who will fight for you, guide you, and treat you like a priority, look no further. She’s truly the best!Shelbey Flecksteiner
- Sierra went above and beyond our expectations as a real estate agent. Not only did she help us find our dream home but took the time to find us reasonably priced painters and a flooring crew. She was always quick to respond to a message or phone call. Sierra is efficient and a pleasure to work with. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a homeP W
- I would like to note, that my husband worked with Sierra Player as a General Contractor and was so impressed by her all around dedication to her clients that we hired her for our sale of our home in Grass Valley. The results were tremendous, from the very start of points to improve, staging the home, the online videos and over all promotion. She set the bar for future realtors.Julia Barlow
- Sierra is the agent of our dreams! She helped us find the perfect mountain retreat. We wouldn’t have made it through the gauntlet of selling one investment property and buying another without her expert guidance, calm demeanor, attention to detail and positive attitude. She goes above and beyond at every stage of the transaction, providing white-glove service and superlative support. For example, she obtained multiple bids for us for repairs and improvements and did plenty of research on the properties we considered. She’s a consummate professional and an even better human being. Don’t hesitate. Just work with her ☺️.Jonathan Franz
