Denise is an awesome relator. When we were looking for a home she put our needs and budget first. It made it easier to choose the right home. We would use her again. Oh that's right, We did. She has helped us find two homes to date. She was able to easily guide us through the process and help us find the financing we needed."

While my husband and I were looking for a home, a dear and wise older friend of ours demanded that we change our realtor to Denise Chapartéguy. We were reluctant to change because we had been working with our realtor for several months by that time, but we were honestly not happy. One day our friend called again begging us to change to Denise Charpartéguy. Since he was a well known and well loved local parish priest, I decided that he was looking after us, and I should probably listen and heed his advice. So we switched to Denise. Wow... what a difference. Our friend said "Denise will work very hard for you," and he was right. She loves what she does, and she's good at it. We found just the perfect home, and Denise was with us every step of the way. If you run into what seems like a wall with one issue, she will find a way around it. She's patient and knows how to look after her client's best interests. I highly recommend Denise, and Father Jerry Thomas did too! You'll be so grateful to have her experience. She knows what to do and she's very intelligent. She thinks three times faster than she can speak, so get out your pen and paper. You're going to learn a lot."

Denise really works hard to make her clients' real estate experience the best it can be. She takes a personal interest in each business relationship and goes that "extra mile". I personally recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell in the real estate market.

Testimonials...
Denise Chapartéguy is an incredible realtor. She assisted us with two house purchases and one house sale in Windsor. When we were exploring the possibility of moving to Sonoma County, Denise gave us the grand tour with visits to homes in many different towns and neighborhoods that she thought would be a good match for us. We zeroed in on Windsor. After moving to Windsor, a house better suited to our needs came on the market. With Denise's help and expertise on short sales, we purchased it. Denise quickly sold the first house. Denise is great to work with. She’s professional, has great follow up, and a great sense of humor.
Randy & Julie Neff
Denise has been our Realtor for about 12 years now helping us buy and sell whenever the need arose. We have even called her just for an opinion when we couldn't decide what to do. If she didn't know the answer (which was rare) she always knew someone who did. She has always been attentive to our needs and we never once felt like she was pushing us in a direction designed to maximize her profit. We absolutely LOVE working with Denise!?
Ross & Rebecca Sigari
Giving up my home was not an easy decision. Denise guided me through the entire Short Sale process, however. She took the lead and took care of each step along the way. When there were challenges, she knew exactly how to handle them. Having Denise on my side was the best thing that could have happened for me.
Keith Christensen
I’ve known and worked with Denise for several years. Denise does a wonderful job for her clients and is great to work with. She is always on top of the transaction, stays in contact with me and responds quickly to my requests. I highly recommend her and am happy to be a part of her team.
