What clients are saying

I had a piece of land that I had tried to sell on and off over several years with no luck. I was a motivated seller...get it sold with out leaving money on the table. My previous agent, who had sold me the property 20-something years ago, was not showing me "a light at the end of the tunnel". I did some research and was attracted to Dan Allen as an energetic, motivated agent. He did not disappoint! Within 6 weeks, we had a contract. I have never even at this point met Dan. I made a call based on what I read about Dan's profile on a Google search. His impossibly quick response to my phone call...I'm talking 20 minutes ...his solid, no nonsense approach was what won me over. Dan is transparent in all aspects of transaction and guidance. On a note of being treated well....my real estate transaction ended up being just over 100 grand. Dan treated me as though I had given him a 6 million dollar listing. Dan is authentic.

We loved working with Dan Allen with Silver Creek Real Estate! He understood our property's unique assets and challenges, priced us appropriately, and got our house sold sooner than I expected. He stayed in close communication with us through the whole process. I have never had a closing go so smoothly, and my husband and I walked away from the deal feeling like Dan represented us well in all negotiations. We would gladly use Dan again in any real estate purchase or sale!

As out-of-state buyers with little experience in the area, we relied heavily on Dan's local history and deep market experience to guide us through the process. He invested more time and effort than we ever could have expected, determined to find the right fit for us at the right value. Dan saved us unnecessary trips by thoroughly screening properties on our behalf, and when it was time to make an offer on "the one," he came ready with a strategy to ensure the best outcome. Dan was tenacious during negotiations, even when faced with resistance, and helped us achieve a fantastic value. Not only would I recommend Dan to others, but I will absolutely use his services again if we buy or sell down the road! Additionally, Silver Creek has so much to offer as a firm - they are experts on the area and market, and they have built an exceptional website and produce an informative magazine to help buyers fall in love with the area!

We recently had our best experience selling a home. Dan Allen, our listing agent, was supportive, strategic, confident, knowledgeable about the area and the market, as he counseled us through the process. He understands how important it is to have a strong relationship with his clients and makes that his number one priority. Dan's "can do" attitude helped us to feel prepared and confident, as he stayed on top of everything that needed to be done. He patiently responded to our questions and provided us with the resources we needed, sometimes even before we knew we would need them. Dan is realistic about what is possible and he was open and transparent when communicating with us. We recommend Dan and the team at Silver Creek whether you are buying or selling a home in the Cashiers/Sapphire/Glenville area. Thank you, Dan and team!

We highly recommend Dan Allen at Silver Creek. His out of the box thinking led him to find us exactly what we were looking for. Thanks Dan.

Chuck and Riva were very professional, knowledgeable and responsive to our inquiries. We would definitely recommend them to anyone buying or selling their homes. Chuck also found this unique Sapphire log home in 2013 and were very pleased with the outcome.

Chuck handled the purchasing and selling of our townhouse. He handled both events with amazing skill, knowledge, energy, patience, and dependability. He was wonderful to work with as well as his partner, Riva. I would highly recommend them to anyone buying or selling in the Cashiers/Sapphire area.

I’m writing to provide feedback on our outstanding experience in purchasing a property in the Plateau area. My wife, Lisa and I had been looking for a home in the mountains but did not have much exposure to the Plateau area. Let me first start by saying that we could not be more pleased Bambi. She went far and wide to help us understand the area, inform us of the different locations, and, most importantly, spent a significant amount of time understanding our needs and wants. Bambi took us through several homes and neighborhoods and spent time explaining the activities, events, and culture of the area. We worked together over several months trying to find the perfect place and in the end, followed Bambi’s suggestions and purchased a lot to build a new home. While most realtors would stop there, she continued to work with us to help us find a builder and architect and has kept engaged even after the sale of the lot closed.

We’ve moved over 20 times in our career and I've never worked with a more thorough, detailed, efficient, patient and professional realtor. I would recommend Bambi to anyone thinking about purchasing a property in the area.

Thanks again for all the dedication and expertise!

We were so impressed with the outstanding attributes and skills that Bambi and the Silver Creek demonstrated during the sales process of our home. This was a complex transaction and we were kept informed every step of the way and the close attention to detail was exceptional.

There were several significant challenges and these solved effectively through excellent negotiations and communication. We were very favorably impressed and value the excellent outcome generated by Bambi and the team.

Without a doubt this is one of the best experiences we had ever been associated with.

Thank you Bambi and the Silver Creek team!

I don’t usually write testimonials, but because of my recent experience working with Jochen, I felt compelled to express not only my gratitude but also to share my experience with others. When I met with Jochen to discuss selling my home, I knew immediately that he was the right person to help me. Having recently been widowed, it was an emotional decision. Jochen was very compassionate and understanding about my situation, but also very professional and knowledgeable. His guidance during the sale of my house was invaluable. When challenges arose, he remained confident and positive. He helped me during the process of downsizing and purchasing a smaller house. He advised me along the way, and we found the perfect new home. His ability to negotiate and his understanding of the Cashiers/Highlands market, in my opinion, is unmatched. Jochen has not only represented me as my realtor, but he has also become a friend.
