Dorothy Ellen Gaffney

DOROTHY GAFFNEY HAS BEEN IN THE REAL ESTATE BUSINESS FOR MANY YEARS AND KEEPS HERSELF UPDATED ON ALL CHANGES AND THE CURRENT REAL ESTATE MARKET. SHE DEMONSTRATED THAT SHE IS A HARD-WORKING AND A DEDICATED REALTOR. SHE MADE SURE OUR HOUSE WAS CLEAN THROUGHOUT AND THEN STAGED IT. DOT ALSO SAW TO IT THAT THE GROUNDS WERE TRIMMED AND CLEANED UP.. WE RECEIVED TWO OFFERS ON OPEN HOUSE DAY AND TWO MORE OFFERS THE FOLLOWING TWO DAYS, AS WELL AS A GREAT DEAL OF INTEREST CONTINUED TO BE SHOWN REGARDING OUR HOUSE. WE HAD ALREADY RECEIVED 4 OFFERS IN 3 DAYS AND REAL ESTAGE AGENTS CONTINUED TO CALL WANTING TO SHOW OUR HOUSE TO THEIR CLIENT. DOT GAFFNEY IS COMPLETELY TRUSTWORTHY AND HONEST AND HAS A THOROUGH AND COMPLETE UNDERSTANDING OF THE EVER-CHANGING REAL ESTATE MARKET. DOT GIVES 100+% TO HER JOB AS AN AGENT. WE WOULD NOT HESITATE FOR A SECOND TO HAVE HER AS OUR AGENT AGAIN BASED ON HER SUCCESSFUL ACCOMPLISHMENTS WITH OUR HOUSE.

A TOP-NOTCH REAL ESTATE AGENT. COULDN'T HAVE BEEN ANY BETTER!!!

NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS CONCERNING COMPLETION OF THE SALE OF OUR HOUSE. COULDN'T HAVE GONE SMOOTHER.

We started our home search with another agent. That was a mistake! Then we remembered Dorothy Gaffney! We had met Dot months prior at an open house for one of her listings. She struck me as a very genuine and kind person and was very knowledgeable about Redlands. I was impressed with her experience as a local real estate agent which proved invaluable throughout the entire home buying process.

Dot seemed to care more about our getting a good deal and what we deserved as new buyers than even we did at times. She reviewed the inspection reports, which were LONG, with such extraordinary attention to detail we knew nothing would be missed. This gave us tremendous confidence in our purchase.

I would recommend Dot without hesitation. At every step of the way she went above and beyond.

Dot's reputation as an experienced and exceptional real estate agent for more than 40 years make all the difference in the world

Dot was a pleasure to work with and we couldn't be more pleased.

Dot inspected our property and made good recommendations to prepare it for the market. She conducted a comprehensive market analysis to ensure we maximized a reasonable sale price. The home was vacant and Dot did a professional job staging it, receiving several compliments from buyers and their agents.

Matt Gaffney assisted Dot with all aspects of the sale. He had great ideas and was helpful throughout the sale.

Dot and Matt made a great team. They made the sale process painless and enjoyable.

I just recently sold a second piece of property with Dorothy Gaffney. Dorothy Gaffney has been my real estate broker for well over 20+ years now. She has a knowledge base that surpasses that of many brokers I have dealt with. She made sure to ask me all the right questions to ensure I was going to get the best price for our home. She goes above and beyond and she is always available to her clientele if they have a question. That is true customer service. I would, and have, and will continue to recommend Dorothy to anyone I know that is in need of buying or selling a home.

Dorothy Gaffney worked with my parents and has advised me many times through the years. I always will seek Dorothy to be my realtor. She is extremely professional and is simply a wonderful person. She knows Redlands. She knows how to market for a sell. She listened to my ideas and offered accurate information. She represents what Lois Lauer wanted on her team. It was a pleasure working with her.

Dorothy is very trustworthy and kind. She communicated with us with patience and respect at all time. All of our questions and concerns were addressed quickly. We could not thank her enough for her professionalism and kindness.

Very dedicated hard worker for both buyer & seller.

Very professional knowledgeable agent who took great personal interest in successfully preparing us for the market and also getting our property ready for showing. She was patient and available throughout the sale process And always very respectfulAnd went beyond our expectations

I would strongly recommend.Dot Gaffney and Michael Gaffney

I feel very blessed that Dorothy Gaffney was my agent! Her knowledge, her warm personality and her communications skills made her the perfect agent for me. I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants an agent who is committed to selling one's house and putting the time and effort into making the sale and the escrow successful. In addition, I appreciated all the help of her son, Matthew Gaffney, who also put forth maximum effort to get my house sold. You can depend on Dorothy to do all that it takes to have a satisfying outcome and to address all your needs in the process. I am forever grateful to her for all that she did for me!

Dorothy goes the extra mile. She was very helpful and provided all the help and advice that we needed. The whole experience with Dot and the Lois Lauer Staff was above and beyond what we have experienced in other sales of property. We can't thank everyone involved enough for all of their help.

We have bought and sold with Dot in the past. She is the ultimate professional in terms of behavior and her experience and local knowledge really make her the perfect realtor. We never considered using anyone else, nor will we if the need arises in the future.

There never is any doubt that Dot is completely vested in your property and wants everything to go well. In addition, she makes everything easy. Paperwork is easy; communication is easy; understanding where one is in the process is easy.

Escrow people were all very nice.

I have, in the past, and will continue to recommend Dot to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in our area.

Dot when far above and beyond what an agent would normally be expected to do. She is amazing

Dot has a rare quality of making you feel important whether she is selling a small condo or a multi million dollar home. She always insured I understood the process and would stay engaged until a resolution was reached.

She treated you as if you were extended family and that you really mattered. She is competent, fun and thoroughly knowledgeable about real estate.

She is so high quality, rare to find!

Below is a copy of a text (edited/and shortened--only slightly) I sent Dot after the close of an escrow, that seemed challenging due to a number of lapses on the part of the escrow service. Feel free to use any of this info.

"Dorothy, Eleanor and I feel blessed to have had your wonderful services for this sale.

The Buyer should also feel blessed as only through your efforts was the Friday sale date timely confirmed.

The heroics you engaged in with the somewhat dysfunctional escrow folks--and teaming up/ communicating w this anxious co-owner--don't obscure the following observations:

-Great collaboration w Eleanor/me, and your fellow Lauer Century 21 Colleague in arriving at a reasonable--top dollar sales price.

-Producing a world class set of photos to show go along w the listing. An aside: Eleanor and I have been looking to purchase a condo in Little Italy. I've looked at 1000s of photos on at least 50 houses. None of them displayed the artistry or completeness of scope of what you and your photographer produced for us.

-You worked well w our tenants, 2 professionals under a lot of logistic stress w a 4 mo infant. Every interested potential buyer was able to view the home in a timely fashion.

-You made sure the appraiser was aware of all the upgrades we had made, thus assuring the highest appraisal on this 2-BDRM model since 2008.

You remained positive, kind, and upbeat throughout, never ever w a negative word or blame directed anywhere, just some occasional, understated, incredulity--it was contagious!"

It was a pleasure to work with Dot on the sale of our house, 27 years after she helped us to purchase it. Her warm personality, professionalism, and knowledge of the area made the sale as quick and painless as possible, while getting appropriate value for the property.

High integrity, professional, kind, and considerate would all describe Dot Gaffney. She sold me my first home in Redlands in 1985 and has helped me through a divorce and several other house purchases since then. Dot has become a trusted friend, and I have, and will continue to, recommend her as the best real estate agent in town.

Dorothy was wonderful. She went WAY further than the extra mile in helping me thru what was a difficult process for me personally. I had inherited this home from my parents who have both passed. I live in Arizona and due to a broken leg could not make any trips to CA to oversee the process. That did not matter at all. Dorothy handled it all, kept me informed every step of the way and even offered moral support and a shoulder when the going got a bit tough for me. I would recommend Dorothy to anyone who is looking for a realtor. She is top notch. I am more than completely satisfied!!!!

I hope she never retires

She is the best in all aspects
