I had an exceptional experience working with Shari Silva to sell my home. Shari invested time and resources to get my home ready to sell by setting up all the inspections, needed maintenance, cleaning and professional staging. My home shined and we had an offer on the second day of listing. We ended up with multiple offers and sold the home for well over the listing price. Shari coached me through the entire process and I felt confident in all the decisions that were made and the closing process. Shari was professional, friendly and extremely effective and efficient. I will definitely hire her again when I buy and sell homes in the future.

Shari Silva has helped me find homes for rent over the last 4 years and in July of 2019, she helped us purchase our first home. We had told her what we were searching for (land, a quiet, safe neighborhood for our son and a reasonable price point) She literally manifested our dream piece of property, made a personal connection for us with the home owners and we were able to purchase with ease, efficiency and minimal effort on our part. I highly recommend Shari as a realtor to anyone in the Santa Cruz Mountains looking for their perfect piece of land! Thank you Shari!

Neal Langholz and I had the pleasure of working with Shari on a recent Eastside transaction. We were representing the Seller and she represented the Buyer. She represented her client very well in a multiple offer situation, ensuring her offer was the most attractive to our Seller. We closed in 3 days...our fastest escrow ever. Shari is professional, communicative and a wonderful person. We hope to have the opportunity to work with her again very soon!

Shari has helped my husband and me sell and purchase several properties in Santa Cruz County. I have worked with many real estate brokers and agents on multiple transactions over the years and can say with confidence that Shari is the best agent I have ever used. She has high integrity and is very conscientious and tenacious, always keeping her clients’ best interest in mind. She does a great job listening to her clients’ needs and does not waste time showing properties which do not meet the clients’ objectives. Shari is also a master marketer using the latest and greatest technologies and tools to market and sell properties. My husband and I have the highest level of confidence and feel Shari can properly assess and handle any situation and figure out effective solutions. Even during Covid she was able to successfully market and sell our home. She found creative ways while always following the ever changing safety mandates and guidelines. Shari has the qualities that make her an extremely successful and effective agent. I can’t say enough about her professionalism and knowledge in the industry.

Shari was very clear about the steps needed to sell my house. It took longer than I anticipated to get it ready, yard work inspections and staging but all well worth it. Shari was easy to work with, did most of the leg work dealing with and contacting inspectors and workmen. My house was a bit of a special case one room having been damaged by a tree fall. I decided to clean up the property and the house made secure and safe and try selling as is rather than repairing. Shari was great about helping me navigate all of the details, and also a sounding board as it was a bit emotional having lived there for 18 years. I ended up receiving a very good price for my house - well over asking which completely surprised me. I can only think that it had to do with Shari’s vision to make the property look great and staging the house and studio to look cute and country chic.

Shari is such a openly happy welcoming person. We were looking for our first home and she walked us through the process and helped established what we really wanted. I learned so much from the experience. She answered questions, made the communication between us and the sellers so easy. Her experience really shows, she is a smooth operator. Her positive attitude really won over everyone involved in our transaction. I recommend Shari Silva to anyone who is looking to buy a home, or even thinking of buying a home (or selling).

Shari has represented us for many transactions at different stages in life. Most recently she found me the perfect home. She is patient and a good listener and knows what I like. She knew just how to handle selling our home at the same time. Her knowledge was wonderful and she went over and above with her service.
Since then, she still brings me flowers for my deck!
I'm lucky because Shari is not only my Realtor, she's also my daughter, and I trust her with everything!

Shari Silva is great to have in your corner when buying or selling a home! We have bought two and sold one with her! She is great with staging and marketing when selling, and she’s really committed to helping you find exactly what you want when buying. She showed us many properties and helped us find our cherished home in the Santa Cruz mountains. It always felt like she was working with us because she loved to rather than just as a job. When we’ve recently considered buying other property, she was our clear choice.

Shari represented a buyer in a multiple offer situation on a home I had listed. Shari impressed me greatly with her strong communication skills, positive attitude, and desire to help her client get the home. She was creative in her approach and was wonderful to work with. She really cares for her clients and it shows. I look forward to working with Shari again!

Shari did an exceptional job selling our home in Ben Lomond. Her networking people skills are amazing. At the time she creatively self staged the house and I believe we got above asking price with multiple offers because of it. It was truly above and beyond. I look forward to our next transaction.

When selling our property she covered every detail of the sale and closing with us. Her staging was on point and we had results in days. If you want to sell your home in the Santa Cruz market, Shari will do her best to make it happen! Thank you Shari ;)

Working with Shari Silva buying a home was a very positive experience. She holds herself to high ethical standards, which let us know we could trust her always to act in our best interests. She showed us many houses so that we all could all learn what sort of home would suit us. During the current sellers-market, Shari helped us keep our perspective through the difficult process of bids, counter-bids, and inspections. When we expressed doubts or fears about a next step, she heard us but was also willing to firmly share another point of view, based on her experience as a realtor, and because of this we now have our wonderful new home. She is very well-connected with lenders, escrow agents, inspectors, roofers, and such and this is an incredible benefit to her clients. Her long experience has equipped her with lots of useful tips about how various issues in a home can be addressed. She is thoroughly versed in all the complexities of real estate law, and explained things well to us. Shari is a delightful person to work with.

I've worked with Shari on a number of Real Estate Transactions. She is full of energy and care. She monitored the market and was proactive and engaged when a home came available in the location I desired.
She helped me get advice and supported me on the procurement of a rental property/1031 exchange. And when I needed to assist aging parents sell their home, she helped me successfully find and interview out of state realtors. Full service with a beautiful attitude.

I had the wonderful opportunity to be in escrow representing a buyer with Shari's listing on the west side. She was responsive, kind, and professional. Shari is one fierce realtor. She works hard for her clients and collaborates well with other realtors and professionals to get the job done. I would happily work with her any day and am hoping to again soon.
