There is so much to say about the incredible experience we had working with Yvette. From the very first moment, we easily connected with Yvette as she brings such warmth and a down to earth approach to her interactions. Throughout the time we worked with Yvette she was a skilled, timely and transparent communicator. The depth of knowledge and experience she brings was evident, as was her ability to advocate and negotiate on our behalf. She is a person of the utmost integrity and character and it clearly shows in how she communicates with you as her clients but also with other people in the home

Professional, poised, responsive, affective. These are only a few words that describe Yvette. From the first meeting we knew she was the agent we wanted to sell our home. She came with a marketing plan in hand and had it executed within days. Our home sold for over asking within a week of hitting the market. We would use her again for both purchase and sale if the need arises. We would give her 10 stars if possible.

It's hard to put into words how grateful we are that we got to work with Yvette. After working with a few other agents in other parts of the Bay, thank goodness we finally found her.
We were tough clients, with very specific needs and a unique vision for our dream home, and Yvette more than delivered. She was an indispensable member of the team, and became like family over the course of the months we worked together. She spent countless hours on the phone with us and countless weekends touring houses she found for us that met our ever-changing specifications. She was always responsive,

I cannot recommend Yvette enough! I was referred to Yvette from a trusted friend. I was in a difficult situation and doing my best to help a family member who was not ready to move on to a new living situation. Yvette was the perfect combination of patient, kind and informative. She helped ease a tough situation. Because it had been a long time since my family member and I had been a part of the selling process we needed a lot of guidance and reminders. Yvette stayed on top of every detail and made sure that we knew all of our deadlines. She was always available to answer questions (even though

It is with pleasure to write and share a review of my real estate transaction, with the assistance of Compass agent Yvette Preute.
From inception, Yvette was inviting, pleasant, knowledgeable, efficient, creative, readily accessible, and overall delightful. She exceeded my expectations in securing me a wonderful home by being thorough, diligent, and timely in scheduling/completing inspections, contacting city officials, reaching out to her contacts, and in performing any other needs I relayed to her. Yvette listened to my wants/needs in a home, and thus presented appropriate

Yvette went above and beyond helping my boyfriend and I find our dream home for our first house! We have a 4 and a half month old and we were looking to relocate from SF, and she was so flexible with arranging times to meet us and show us places in Petaluma. Yvette is much more thorough than other agents we met, and she takes the time to explain relevant data so you can make an informed decision. She also walked us through every step of the home buying process and answered all our questions with patience. We never felt pressured to buy until we were ready, and Yvette was great at listening to our

Yvette is wonderful! She is knowledgable and experienced, not to mention hard working and caring. She gets that this is the BIGGEST purchase of our lives, that the little things matter, and that it's not a house, it's our home!
We moved from Washington and were told from some coworkers at my husbands new job to call Yvette. From the moment we met her I knew she "got it". She was sweet and personable to our kids, and understanding when all of us needed to trek and see some houses together. Yvette was super sweet when one of my daughters lost a tooth at a house showing

Just close on my house working with amazing Yvette. She came recommended thru a close Friend and I could not have been happier with her level of professionalism and friendliness! My move across town could not have been more seamless. Always prompt in returning calls/emails as well as her knowledge of the Petaluma housing market. I found the house I wanted and we proceeded to move fast on it with yvette leading the way. As she was recommended to me, I too recommend Yvette.

We recently worked with Yvette to sell our existing home and find us a new one. It was a long process, but Yvette was extremely patient, always made herself available and answered all our questions thoroughly. She listened to us as our needs/wants changed and made good use of our time by only looking at houses that "checked our boxes". Yvette was honest and straightforward which helped to manage our expectations but was also paramount in negotiating the best deal possible. I would use Yvette again for any of my real estate needs and would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or

I had the pleasure of working with Yvette when recently buying my house in Petlauma. Given my lower price range (for Petaluma), I was worried that I wouldn't be able to find anything on the west side...until I found Yvette. Yvette understood exactly what I was looking for and because of her familiarity of Petaluma and the neighborhoods, she found it! I loved the first house she showed me and we put in an offer. It was one among several offers and Yvette was an extremely effective negotiator at getting the seller & their agent to notice mine. I am sure without her persistent communication

Yvette is amazing. She is kind, patient, professional and a tough negotiator for her clients. My brother and sister in law used her for selling their home and buying a new place, and so did my wife and I. After my last experience with a mediocre agent, Yvette set the new standard. If you are reading this review, stop, look no further. Yvette will be the best choice you make in having someone on your side to sell or buy your home.

We recently purchased a home in Petaluma, and we feel extremely fortunate to have worked closely with Yvette as our real estate agent. She is incredibly diligent, hardworking, trustworthy and knowledgeable about the Petaluma and North Bay housing market. Best of all, Yvette is an amazingly warm, genuine and thoughtful person who truly cared about helping us find the best possible house for our family's needs and budget. She consistently went above and beyond, keeping us apprised of unlisted houses about to come on the market, showing us a wide range of houses to help us get a better perspective

We just purchased a home for our family in Petaluma. Yvette was very knowledgeable about the area and went above and beyond our expectations of her duties as an agent. We were placing a contingent offer and we knew the market would be quite competitive. Thanks to Yvette, her experience in the industry, and her personal touch on the deal, we were very fortunate to have our offer accepted. We would certainly recommend her to anyone looking to buy in the area.

We recently brought a house in Petaluma and are very glad that we had the help of Yvette. We had found several houses but were outbid by tens of thousands of dollars. On the third house we liked the location but had been burnt by the past two houses and didn't want to bid on it. Yvette had been working with us for 4-5 months at that time so she knew what we liked. She suggested we think about putting an offer on it. We thought about it, put an offer on it and got the house! She has the combination of being logical and organized , as well as very being personable and client-centric
