Destination Real Estate - Enjoy the Journey. Love the Destination.

Had a great experience with Sonja. She took the time to find exactly the criteria that we were looking for in a home. She is so responsive, even when she was on vacation. Everything was coordinated with the sellers, escrow and all the closing paperwork. Have never had such a seedless experience.

Sonja sold my family’s condo in Mammoth that we had owned for over 40 years. Sonja made the process so easy for us. We weren’t in Mammoth and it took her 2 days to go from getting the green light from us to sell the condo to being on the market. We had multiple offers…

Working with Sonja was a wonderful experience. She made our second home purchase seamless. We made an offer prior to seeing the home in person, but felt fully comfortable doing so with Sonja’s help and support. Everyone she recommended to us, from lender to inspector to locksmith has been fantastic as well. Sonja and her…

After having owned a condominium at St. Anton since it was first built in 1972 (50 years ago!), my wife and I decided (in late January of this year) that it was finally time to move on with other activities in our life, and sought recommendations for a local realtor who could help us find…

Eric did an amazing job of working with me to help me find the perfect property in Mammoth!

We continue to ask him questions even two months after closing…

We have worked with Sonja on 2 purchases and one sale in the mammoth lakes region. She has proven to be very helpful in this market, most recently she tied us into our dream home before it hit the market! I recommend her without reservation!

Sonja is the absolute best. She is the number 1 “go to”, no question. Her follow up was close to instantaneous.

I called Sonja to find out how much my house was worth.  I thought she would do it over the phone but she kindly came round and gave me a full report of the real estate situation.  I wasn’t thinking of actually selling and did not want to waste her time, it wasn’t a million…

She’s a great resource for both on and off market properties and makes the process as…

Sonja began helping me in 2015 with the proposed sale of my home in Mammoth.  We decided not to sell at that time, but kept in touch with her and she was always helpful and knowledgeable with any of our questions.  This summer my home sold quickly and smoothly, with Sonja’s expert help.  She was…

She took the time to understand what type of home we were looking for, what the key attributes were, and provided guidance on where we should find them. When we found what we wanted, Sonja went above and beyond to…

Even though we never met in person (mostly due to the pandemic) Sonja was great to work with. The house I was selling was a vacation home located 300 miles from my primary residence, so getting there to handle the small, but important details of making the house salable was difficult. Sonja handled it all…

Sonja is so professional and she is so worth her commission! She brought us a qualified buyer with all the verifications needed to make a quick decision. We closed escrow in less than 30 days. It was as an emotional sale for us and she so encouraged us through it all. We love Sonja’s enthusiasm…

Our ultimate goal was to downsize from our 4,200 square foot home which we built on Ridge Way in Mammoth Lakes 15 years ago. First of all, Sonja was amazing to work with! She listed our home on Ridge Way and we had two all cash offers in just 4 weeks. With our buyer In…

Sonja was amazing! She was on top of everything. She knows what she is doing and worked hard to make our buying experience in Mammoth a smooth one.

Sonja is simply a 5 Star Realtor and working with her was a complete pleasure. Her experience, accessibility, and knowledge of the Mammoth real estate market is second to none.

As a first-time prospective home buyer, I was not only impressed with Sonja’s ability to lead me through the groundwork of the process- looking at homes, explaining fireplace ordinances, discussing HOAs- but her ability to really understand what I was looking for. She could tell how to narrow down my search right away, and what…

Sonja turned what seemed like a complex long-distance purchase process into a simple project.

Sonja was a great asset in selling the house. She knew details and negotiated for the sale with skill and thoughtful advice.
