To whom it may concern:
When my husband, Jim and I decided to purchase a summer residence in a cooler part of the country than Arizona, we called Denise Cash at Coldwell Banker. With much patience and perseverance she after over a year, found a lovely 3-bedroom condominium in our price range.
Escrow was completed very quickly and efficiently due to Denise’s expertise and thoroughness. We will use Denise’s services again and highly recommend her to anyone. She obviously has worked very hard to know the Real Estate Sales business and takes pride in her work.
Sincerely,
Carol Hess Lindsey & James C. Lindsey

Ken Cash is the best REALTOR® we have ever worked with. He is professional and knowledgeable, proactive and goes "above and beyond" in order to solve problems and deliver results. We were glad to have such a great business partner in this process, especially since most of our purchase was conducted at a distance. We would unhesitatingly recommend him.
Thank You Ken for your above and beyond.

Dear Ken and Denise,
Thank you very much for making our purchase so smooth, so quick, and so enjoyable. Your professionalism and honesty are two major factors that helped us to feel very comfortable, and, at the same time, allowed to execute the deal rapidly. It all started with your website before we ever called you.
In addition to just helping with the deal itself you gave us a 1,000 useful recommendations and advice starting from how life is in Incline Village and going on to advice on how to repair a lock.
Thank you! Slava & Maria

Dear Ken:
With a grateful smile, I thank you both personally and professionally, for your management, expertise and guidance through the recent sale and closing of my property in Incline. You have once again reinforced why my entire family and I have kept a constant relationship with you and your team. During the past 15 years, and 4 sales, through "up" markets and "not-so-up" markets, you continue to make this sometimes challenging process... not challenging at every turn.
You have shown me and my family in your actions, you think and act in the transaction, as if it were your own property. In this latest transaction, I was not local, and knowing you were there, made the process go "as if" I were right there in town. My wife commented to me several times," you seem pretty peaceful through this process, how come?" I would reply peacefully, "Ken is on it and on top of it..." It felt as if I had a brother who is a "top performer" in the market in Incline, knew who to call, what needed to be done, and how to handle the inevitable queries.
As a repeating recipient of your expertise, care and professionalism, it feels to me, you are more in the business of "expertise and peace of mind", delivered through expert real estate service and guidance.
I continue to wish you and your team, the best and look forward to our relationship continuing with another transaction in the near future.
With deep respect and appreciation,
Rob Flintom

To Whom It May Concern,
It is with great pleasure that I write this testimonial for Ken Cash, an Associate Broker with Coldwell Banker Select Real Estate Group of Northern Nevada.
Ken served as our Realtor when our family first moved to Nevada from Montgomery County, Maryland. Ken is by far, the best real estate agent my wife and I have ever worked with.
In May of 2009, I was selected as the new superintendent of Washoe County School District in Reno, Nevada. While I was thrilled to be selected, the thought of moving our family 2,800 miles west was certainly stressful. We were referred to Ken by the relocation company he is associated with. Ken immediately impressed us with his knowledge, insights, and commitment to really get to know us. He began to pro-actively send us information long before we visited the area. Because of the many choices he provided, we were ready to make immediate decisions. He also called often to talk about how we were feeling both with what he was providing but also how the marketing and sale of our home outside of Washington, DC was doing.
Ken's well organized and advance work laid the foundation, so our time in the Reno area looking for homes was productive and efficient. Despite just getting to know us, his initial selections of homes to look at showed how much he had been listening during our initial conversations. Ken worked harder for us than any real estate agent we had ever experienced. From helping us find a house we love, to working with us through closing, Ken has provided us with wisdom, expertise and camaraderie. As we settled on our home, we realized we had not only found an amazing Realtor professional, but also a great friend.
Relationships are built on trust and we have complete faith and confidence in Ken Cash. He is a special agent and an even better person. We have referred many others to Ken's services and will continue to do so. We are grateful that we not only have a professional relationship with Ken, but a personal one as well.
I would be happy to discuss this testimonial with you.
Dr. Heath E. Morrison, Superintendent
Washoe County School District, Reno, NV

Subject: Thank you!
Ken - Mary and I appreciated the call yesterday, and for all of your assistance during the "bumps' in the road over the past month. Had it not been for your "I will get this closed" attitude, it would just never have happened. We learned alot from you about real estate in general but Short Sales in particular. We've some work to do on the condo improvements, but Kailey (and we) are excited to take them on. As Mary and I contemplate and approach retirement in the next few years, the Incline Village or the Gardnerville areas may be under our consideration. As we progress in our decision-making, we will be in touch!
All the Best, Paul and Mary Hamer

To whom it may concern:
My Wife and I were celebrating our anniversary in Incline Village April of 2010, when we fell in love with the area, so we walked into the Coldwell Banker office, and were greeted by Denise, she was so helpful and attentive to our needs, helped us make a decision and realize our dream, of owning in Incline.
Denise was very thorough and made buying the home very easy.. She did not stop after the Sale was over. Since we live in Dallas we have had to lean on Denise for help with the property, and she has been more than willing..., She stored some of the furniture we had purchased until we had the opportunity to move in.. She has provided us with local service companies to do work for us. She has answered every question we have ask. I truly feel like we lucked out when we walked into her office and happened to get her as our REALTOR..
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

To Whom It May Concern:
I am happy to provide this letter of recommendation for Ken Cash, Realtor!
Ken embodies all that I wanted in a Realtor when it came time to sell our Truckee property:
- Straightforward - Ken provided us with an analysis of our property as it stacked up against the properties on the market and against those that had recently sold. He helped us establish a realistic market value, which we could not have done without his guidance;
- Thorough - Ken was, throughout the transaction, attentive to detail and kept the paperwork to just what we needed to deal with;
- Communicative - probably the most valuable aspect of our relationship with Ken Cash was his ability to keep the lines of communications open at all times, whether by phone or by email, so that we never lacked for knowing exactly what was going on;
If the opportunity arises, I would not hesitate to recommend Ken Cash to family and friends for any real estate needs in the greater Tahoe/Truckee area!
Sincerely, David Rial & Susan Takahashi

Ken and Denise
My wife and I want to thank you for helping us purchase our condo in Incline Village. You two are proof that selecting the right REALTOR can make the difference in acquiring our dream home. We are very experienced home buyers having purchased several properties in the SF Bay Area and Incline Village over the years. However, since the condo we wanted to purchase was bank-owned, we encountered hurdles and difficulties that we were not entirely prepared to deal with. Every step of the way, you guided us through this complicated transaction by giving us invaluable professional advice and strategies to devise a winning game plan, exhibiting dogged determination to resolve all issues foreseen and unforeseen, and leveraging your experience as an established REALTOR and long-time resident of Incline Village to help us not only secure our dream home, but to acquire it at a fantastic price.
Even after the sale, you both have been exceptionally supportive in helping us to take our condo to the next level. Being over 200 miles away, it is a daunting challenge to not only identify local professionals that perform quality work at reasonable prices, but also to deal with the logistical challenges of meeting them at the property to perform the work. Both of you have been wonderful in representing us when it was not logistically possible for us to be in two places at once.
We want to thank you for your extraordinary efforts in helping us purchase our beautiful condo in Incline Village. If it were not for your experience, knowledge, and efforts we would not have our new home in the mountains.
Warmest regards, Gary and Laura Battaglia

Regarding: Ken Cash of Coldwell Banker - Incline Village, NV
To whom it may interest:
Ken Cash recently helped my family buy a home in Incline Village.
Working with Ken was a most pleasant experience. Being a businessman myself, I expect folks to listen, take notes and act. Ken was no disappointment. He oftentimes remembered requests and feedback that I did not remember....and took those into account when showing us properties.
I really appreciated Ken's insight and knowledge of the Incline Village area. Ken also went the extra mile. After closing, he watched out for our home as we had not moved in......watering our plants, taking pictures and more.
Thank you Ken and I hope we can do business again! I will certainly refer you to any of my contacts who are looking to buy in the Incline Village area.
Sincerely,
Brian Pluckhan

Ken,
Kathy and I want to thank you for selling our condo in Incline Village. There is no doubt that this property would not have sold at this price if you had not been proactive in all aspects of the sale. The number of things you did at all phases of the sale, from listing to showing to multiple offers, counters, inspections, clearing of deficiencies and on and on is mind boggling in retrospect. I honestly did not realize how hard you guys work to accomplish a sale. I suspect that not all agents work so hard.
As we all know, these are very difficult times for selling real estate, especially second homes. Buyers are all looking for bargains and foreclosures are hammering away at values. The seller with a well kept property, seeking fair value is at the mercy of an immense amount of negative market pressure. It is a rare agent that will take the initiative to educate potential buyers and their agents as to the true and unique value of any given property. You did just that a hundred times over until you found and educated a buyer who eventually "saw the light". In addition, this sale was complicated by "nervous" buyers, condominium issues and overly involved banks on both sides of the sale. Your steady guidance and your experience as an established realtor and long-time resident of Incline Village made it possible to navigate these issues (many of which could have killed the deal) smoothly and to a great conclusion.
Thanks you so much for your extraordinary effort and for going well beyond the reasonable expectations of any seller. You made it happen.
With Gratitude
Steve and Kathy Hubbard
