Sandra Shany

We worked with Sandra and she was amazing! Sandra was very organized and gave us a timeline of what we needed to do to get the house ready for the market. We followed through with all her suggestions and with the staging, we almost wanted to buy our house again! We sold relatively quickly for the price point and area where many homes were on the market for longer. She negotiated for us with our best interest in mind and we felt like she took care of us the whole way. We had a lot of questions throughout as it was our first time selling a home and she advised us professionally and with warmth. Sandra brought so much joy to the experience. Thank you!

Sandra was absolutely incredible to work with. She went above and beyond in every single step of selling our home. I was blown away by how quickly she got our property on the market and how beautiful the photos and presentation were. She handled everything with such professionalism, kindness, and confidence. Even when the buyer’s side moved slowly, Sandra stayed on top of every detail and advocated for us the entire way. She truly knows what she’s doing, and we couldn’t recommend her enough!

This is my second time working with Sandra as my realtor. My husband and I bought our first house with her 4 years ago and now we just purchased our second home with Sandra again. She is just a pleasure to work with and has a plethora of knowledge in getting you the best advantage in real estate. Sandra and her team come in ready to win for you. That's exactly what she did. She got us to the finish line and you can rest assured you are in the best hands! She's always quick to respond and knows the next move in the process. Exceptional skills at strategizing and very attentive to my wants and needs. I also appreciated how quickly she get things rolling. You'll enjoy your time with her and also get your dream home!

We couldn’t be happier with Sandra! What started as a casual “let’s see” turned into us owning a dream condo with the absolute best view in Laguna Beach—all within two weeks! She kept us updated daily, was always available to answer questions, and made the process fun and stress-free. The personalized welcome basket she arranged upon move-in was extraordinary which made us feel really cared for. Dream house, and an amazing agent—Sandra truly made our dreams come true in record time!

Sandra is everything you want in a real estate agent and more. When my wife and I decided to leave Santa Barbara and start a new chapter in Carlsbad, we knew it wouldn’t be easy to find the perfect home for our growing family. Sandra made what felt like a daunting process not only manageable but genuinely exciting. Sandra has a rare gift for making you feel completely supported while keeping everything on track. Her team, led by Diana, took care of every detail—scheduling showings, bringing in the best inspectors, and coordinating with contractors -- so we didn’t have to stress about anything. But what really made the experience stand out was Sandra’s ability to see the big picture. One of the most inspiring things about Sandra is how much she genuinely cares. She was there for every late-night call, every moment of doubt, and every question we had—no matter how small. When the process got intense, she stayed calm, focused, and always had a solution ready. It felt like she was just as invested in our dream as we were. Moving into a home isn’t just about the walls and the floor plan- it’s about imagining the life you’ll build there. Sandra understood that better than anyone. Thanks to her leadership and dedication, we’re now in a home that feels like the perfect fit for our family, and we couldn’t be happier. If you’re buying or selling in the luxury market, Sandra is the kind of person who will make your dream not just possible but better than you ever imagined.

Sandra was simply awesome. she found a buyer for our house very quickly and handled all the details professionally. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. i’ve had bad experiences with agents so I definitely know the difference.

Selling and buying property is always a process... but I never knew the process could be so stress free as that under Sandra's guidance. Sandra is super focused and super quick to respond and pivot when needed. After the highs of an initial offer fell through, Sandra remained committed to getting a new buyer in days. Her professionalism keeps the deal going at pace and ensures best representation for her client. it was always such a pleasure hearing from her - she's so personable and she never stops working

Sandra is such an incredible realtor. She is o on it! She really knows real estate and is amazing at advocating for her client. She is a delight to look at homes with. I highly recommend making Sandra your realtor.

Sandra did an amazing job in consulting what needs to be done to get the property sold. Staging, compensation as well as marketing and negotiations. She sold the house in less than 15 days with her team.

Sandra Luesse is a 5 star magical agent! She has a unique ability to connect with her clients and make them feel extremely special! Her attention is genuine and her efforts clearly comes from the heart. She truly listens to her clients and finds options that beyond exceed their expectations. No matter the obstacle she finds a way to get exactly what her clients want and put them ahead of the line with her unique way to command attention and respect in this industry. After meeting Sandra its clear that no one will need another agent ever again. This process was personal to me and I cant wait to do more deals in the future!

I rate Sandra a strong 5- star and if there were a rating higher than a 5-star, I would have definitely pick that. We found Sandra while we were house hunting on one of the real estate marketplace sites. On our first call, I explained to Sandra on our requirements, timeline, budget, etc. and our case was different as we were not in an immediate rush to find a house. Sandra was understanding all along and we built a strong relationship over the period of time, a relationship that was beyond an agent-client relationship. There are a lot of traits that I would like to mention of Sandra, but most impressive is her positive energy and calmness. She is always with you throughout the process guiding you in the right direction and providing an honest opinion on the house, neighborhood, schools, etc. We were very lucky to have found Sandra and highly recommend her as the go-to real estate agent in SoCal.

Sandra is an amazing agent. She couldn’t have been more professional and courteous. She is very responsive and always made herself available throughout the whole process. She’s very knowledgeable, answering all our questions to help alleviate our concerns as a first time home buyer. She made the entire ordeal easy and having her around as our agent was the best thing that we could have asked for. Will definitely recommend her to everyone.

Sandra is different in the special one of a kind type of way. She was able to bring light and laughter into an overwhelmingly somber estate sale. She was with me every step of the way with communication that makes you feel like you're her only client (even though you know she's incredibly busy). Sandra is knowledgeable, dependable, and most importantly patient and kind. She is an assertive top-notch negotiator. Overall I highly recommend Sandra for any of your real estate needs. We look forward to working with Sandra for many years to come!

Sandra was knowledgeable, efficient, accessible, responsible and effective. She was able to explain the pros and cons of candidate rental homes, including the cost and the location. She understood the current rental marketplace. She was energetic, and we enjoyed working with her.

Sandra is an all-star Real Estate agent! She recently helped us close on our first family home in Orange County. As soon as we met, we knew we would be in good hands. She worked with us to develop a plan that would ultimately get our offer accepted over several all-cash offers, in an intensely hot market. Sandra knows the Orange County market extremely well and was always well prepared and professional. She is the perfect blend of relentless and kind, which was key to getting our deal done. As first time home buyers, we cannot thank her enough for her patience, constant availability, and guidance through a stressful process. We seriously cannot imagine that there’s a better agent out there, and we are thrilled to have made a life long friend along the way. Thank you, Sandra from the bottom of our hearts!

Sandra was referred to us and was an absolute dream to work with. We weren't sure if we were going to buy or rent, and Sandra was super thorough with helping us decide which direction was best for us and being prepared for either avenue in a very aggressive market. Once we found our house, she immediately contacted the listing agent and got over to the house to view the property with us on FaceTime. From there, she ensured that every box was checked and we got the home we wanted. She made every step easy and was so easy to communicate with. Not only is she a sweet person, but she knows what she is doing and is great at her job! Can't recommend her enough if you are looking to lease or buy.

Sandra was an absolute dream realtor to work with on our mountain home purchase. It was not an easy purchase and she had to hustle so much to get us this house! We’re soo grateful not only for how hard she worked but the extra effort of helping us find people to work on the house. She is a Gem, truly one of a kind.

Sandra Luesee is a realtor extraordinaire! She possess the right mix of positive attitude, expertise, patience, and diligence to help us achieve our goals of both selling and purchasing a new home in a very stressful market. She helped us navigate the many layers of our journey, and did so with a smile and so much creativity! I highly recommend her and can't thank her enough for a job well done!

We cannot recommend Sandra Luesse as your realtor extraordinaire highly enough. It was only by happenstance we connected at an open house and what good fortune for us. We live out of town and made multiple trips to look at homes in this crazy market. Sandra was 100% accessible to us and never made us feel as if we were imposing on her time. Her professionalism, kind nature, knowledge, dedication and hard work are unparalleled. She was with us every step of the way making sense of all the negotiations and continues to assist us even after close of escrow. We look forward to an ongoing relationship with our new friend. With any future Real Estate needs, do yourself a favor and call Sandra, she will exceed all your expectations!

Moving from out of town meant that we needed an agent that was on the ball. We were blessed to have found Sandra Luesse, quite simply she made a frustrating and stressful situation easy and even fun. Her continued communication, follow-up, knowledge, tenacity and truly looking out for our best interest made us feel completely stress free. She knew what we needed and when, and made it happen! We couldn't be more grateful.

Sandra was a true pleasure to work with! She was very knowledgeable and also very kind. And, importantly, she never made us feel pressured to buy a home. There were numerous occasions where Sandra had to really advocate on our behalf, and she did just that. We had many phone conference calls in the evening during which she took the time to carefully explain every step of the process whether it was making an offer on a home or going through the escrow process (termite inspections, appraisal, etc.). I would recommend Sandra to anyone buying a home in a heartbeat. In fact, the only sad thing about buying our home is that my wife and I won't get to see her and her great teammate (Lila) as often. They're great people. 100% recommendation!

We had the pleasure of working with Sandra Luesse as our realtor. She is amazingly responsive, organized, personable and knowledgeable about the entire home buying process. She is especially helpful to out of town buyers such as ourselves. Because of her honesty and diligence, we trusted her, so the whole buying process went smoothly and efficiently. We highly recommend her.

This is a brief note to share my positive experience working with Sandra Luesse in buying a residential property in CA. This was our second closing in CA. We have also worked with many RE agents to close a number of properties in several other states. Among all agents who assisted us in locating and buying properties, none matches Sandra’s excellent professional assistance. We were truly impressed by her quality professionalism, know how, promptness, communication skills, and friendliness. My wife, my son, and I were participating in this recent home buying effort. While our approaches, and demands, were not always similar, Sandra did an excellent job in skillfully achieving a highly satisfactory consensus in all decisions involved. All three of us strongly believe that it was mainly due to her effective skills and efforts that we could get our dream house with a very favorable price in this current sellers’ market. We wish her all the best, and I strongly recommend her with absolutely no reservations whatsoever.

We were working through a move from the East to the West Coast and needed a realtor who was proactive, informed, responsive and willing to hustle for us while we were several thousand miles away. Thankfully we found Sandra. With so much feeling out of our control, Sandra operated as an extension of us, never made us feel like any request was too much (and we asked a lot!) and was a source of confidence and optimism. After three months of house hunting, we landed in a great house for our family and are so thankful for the guidance and support we received from Sandra.

Sandra is an amazing agent! She is so patient and understanding! Never any pressure to settle for anything less than perfect! She was so on top of finding listings, contacting the sellers, and has spoken with the leasing agent and organized everything! Such a smooth process! Sandra is truly the best!

Sandra is the best! Her communication style, determination and assertiveness secured the home I wanted in a very hot market when demand was much greater than inventory. Her follow up and follow through was a huge win for me!

Sandra was excellent. There is no one more knowledgeable about the area and she went above and beyond to help us out when needed. Sandra listens and guides you each step of the way. Highly recommended.

Sandra is the best. She went above and beyond to help us to find a place. She is professional, thoughtful and very personal. We really appreciate your kindness. In the middle of a market crisis she was prompt and a very good negotiator.

Sandra has been so incredibly helpful during our move to Orange County. I don't think we could have navigated this insane rental market without her help and support. We had less than a week to find a place to rent because we were visiting from Utah. She organized all of the house showings, coordinated with landlords and realtors, submitted all the applications on our behalf, and was an all-around advocate for us as tenants. She helped us get into our top pick, and has continued to give us amazing support during the move-in and settling-in process. She has been amazingly responsive any time we needed her. I would absolutely recommend to anyone trying to find a place to rent or buy in Orange County to contact Sandra.

Sandra was our agent when my husband and I were looking to buy our first hone together. She has some unique tactics to get your offer to stand out and get accepted. Even in a sellers market, with not too many available home options & high demand, she was able to lock in a deal without us going over asking. She works with an amazing mortgage team that was able to close our home in record time after we had to cut ties from a bogus first lender. Everything was smooth sailing after that. Sandra was pregnant at the time and actually gave birth in the process of our offer being accepted. Not once did she miss a call, and not reply to an email in a timely manner. She really gives a lot and cares about finding the perfect home for her clients. I highly recommend working with Sandra! Not only is she a pleasure to work with, but she will go over and beyond your expectations

Sandra called me within minutes of me expressing interest in a rental online. Best customer service I have received in years!!! She is kind, efficient, responsive and professional. I would buy a house, get a rental or use her services for any real estate project. Excellent.

We worked with Sandra, and she was amazing! From day one, she was organized, proactive, and gave us a detailed timeline of what needed to be done to get our house ready for market. We followed all her suggestions—including staging—and the results were incredible. We sold quickly, even in a slower area, and Sandra negotiated skillfully on our behalf. As first-time sellers, we had lots of questions, and Sandra answered them all with warmth and professionalism. She made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and even joyful. Thank you, Sandra, for everything!

We can’t recommend Sandra highly enough! We met her by chance at an open house, and it was the best thing that could’ve happened. We live out of town and made several trips to see homes in this competitive market. Sandra was always available, never made us feel like we were imposing, and guided us through every step with professionalism and kindness. She was accessible, knowledgeable, and incredibly hardworking—helping us make sense of negotiations and even assisting us post-close. We look forward to an ongoing relationship with our new friend and will call Sandra for any future real estate needs.

Sandra is knowledgeable, dependable, patient, and kind, yet also an assertive and highly skilled negotiator. I can’t recommend her enough and look forward to working with her again in the future.

If I could give Sandra more than five stars, I would. We found her while house hunting online, and from the very first call, she stood out. I explained our requirements, timeline, and budget—and although we weren’t in a rush, Sandra stayed patient and understanding the entire time. Over the months, she built a genuine relationship with us that went far beyond the typical agent-client interaction. Her positive energy and calmness impressed us most.

Sandra did an amazing job advising us on what needed to be done to get our property sold—everything from staging to marketing and negotiation. Thanks to her expertise and teamwork, the house sold in less than 15 days.
