We recently sold our Montecito estate to move to San Diego. Despite our being very clear with REALTORS that we wanted to rent an unfurnished home and that we were not immediate buyers in the current seller's market, other REALTORS were only interested in showing us homes for sale. They had no real interest in helping us and made no effort to generate any off-market alternatives that might suit our needs. Prentiss Van Den Berg, however, was truly exceptional in listening thoroughly to what we wanted and what we did not want. She relentlessly pursued several possibilities to create alternatives, and was successful in securing us an attractive lease/re...

I’m writing this note after purchasing my first home several months ago with Prentiss Van Den Berg. What felt like a very daunting task as a single first time home buyer became a delight through Prentiss’ guidance and expertise. The whole time I felt like I was shopping for a home with a dear, longtime friend. Prentiss started off the process asking me to list what I was looking for, the must have, the absolutely no and the possible wish list items and of course, my price point. This set a great starting point for us to begin visiting relevant properties in the areas where I wanted to live. What was most impressive about Prentiss is she would always...

I recommend retaining Prentiss Van Den Berg as a real estate agent to represent you in connection with the purchase and sale of a home.

No one I know could have exhibited more dedication or expended more energy in pursuit of a buyer. She was always there to show the property and work with the prospective buyers to demonstrate why our home was the one for them or what modifications could be made to make it their dream house. H...
