The Mashburn Zell Group of CENTURY 21 Everest

I had bought a house in Ventura about a year ago and because of work we had to move. Since I didn't know anyone local I put my house up for sale with one of those big internet real estate companies. After about six weeks of no offers or interest I felt that the big company was useless. So I mentioned this to my neighbor and he recommended Blake. I reached out to Blake and after about 15 minutes I realized he was much more knowledgeable and professional. He confidently said he can sell my house, he's been in the Ventura area for a long time so I felt that he knew it in more detail. He and his team had great ideas to better market it and to give it more curb appeal. Within 2 weeks we had an attractive offer and the house has been sold. I'm grateful to Blake and his team for helping us. I will definitely reach out to him if we're ever lucky enough to move back to Ventura.

Blake Mashburn is a stellar broker. He listens, knows the area extremely well and is very helpful. He is an outstanding professional who helped me find and buy exactly the house I wanted.

We had a great experience working with Blake Mashburn and his associate Lori Stern to sell our house in Oxnard. Blake did an excellent job getting us a great price in a market that was beginning to soften. We were very impressed with Blake's knowledge and preparation from our first meeting, and found both Blake and Lori to be professional, efficient and a pleasure to work with. We're planning to use them to sell an additional property and will enthusiastically recommend them to others.

Blake followed up on every detail, and we always felt like he and Lori were putting our interests first. He's a wonderful person to work with, and we will certainly recommend him to everyone we can. We couldn't be happier with the service he and Lori provided!

We had a great experience buying a house with Blake in such difficult market conditions. His knowledge of local market was the key that helped us secure the house we loved! Blake understood our needs, was very transparent and always available to answer questions. We enjoyed working with him.

Blake was great. He offered a quick marketing and pricing plan immediately based on recent sales in the neighborhood and knowing what the market would prevail. We received an offer on the second day over ask. He was professional will us and our rental tenants in setting up open house appointments and inspections. It worked out perfectly and don't know what he and his assistant, Lori, could have done differently. We used email for the critical communications and texted throughout the process; which was quick and easy. There's a reason why Blake is Number 1 in the area. Highly recommended.
