And we were first time homebuyers, so we wanted someone who would be knowledgable enough to answer all the questions we asked, and all the questions we didn't know to ask. Adrienne was all that, while also being friendly, easy to talk to, and positive. We met with her on a Saturday morning, she started doing showings with us the next day, and she was writing an offer for us by Monday evening! Adrienne worked super hard for us and we're so grateful for her help! We'll recommend her to any of our friends looking to buy a home.” - Betsy & Chris “Thank you for your diligence and hard work in getting mom’s house sold. I had a good feeling, as did my sister, in choosing you as our realtor. We will keep you in mind for our future needs and those of friends and family as well.” - Ron "We were grateful to have found the Alvarado Group when we were searching for our first home in Madison. Adrienne went out of her way to schedule showings for us, and she was truly our advocate during the negotiation process. We also appreciated working with an environmentally-conscious group! The Alvarado Group is one-of-a-kind, and all members of the team work well together." - Melissa & Maurice “Our experience with The Alvarado Group was very easy going and open. We picked our Realtor, Adrienne Sella, because when we met her at an open house she seemed knowledgeable and simply answered any questions we had without coming across as pushy. She has since sold a house for my father-in-law, in about 3 months, and our house, also in about 3 months. During the winter! Our house was a little more difficult since we had to balance buying a new house and selling the old house at the same time. Adrienne walked through each step with us and answered any questions we had. I would even classify her as a friend of our family. Buying and selling is a stressful time and she helped get us through it with our sanity! The staff at The Alvarado Group was also quick to respond and get us the necessary paperwork timely when it came to the closing. Great company.” - Crystal & Michael “We met Adrienne when she was showing us one of the houses she was representing. We chose her because we were looking for someone who was knowledgeable but did not put a lot of pressure on us. When looking for a house, Adrienne was flexible and able to schedule showings quickly. When we chose a house, the entire process from negotiations to closing day went smoothly.” - Erin & Michael
