"Shayan Mir1 reviewa year agoPositive: Professionalism, Responsiveness, ValueShirely made our dream of owning a home in South Lake Tahoe come true so fast that we were literally pinching ourselves! As new buyers in South Lake Tahoe , we really didn’t know where to start. Shirely came highly recommended as a Lake Tahoe Realtor who would “get it done”. And she did! She was knowledgeable, pragmatic, and a great partner to have through what would otherwise be an incredibly stressful process. Her professionalism through the entire process made her a pleasure to deal with. We know we wouldn’t be in our home today if it wasn’t for Shirely and for that, we are forever grateful. You won’t regret having her as your realtor!"

"Lane K1 reviewa year agoPositive: Professionalism, Quality, ResponsivenessTwo years ago we met Shirley at an open house. My husband Steve and I were not in a position to purchase a home in the Tahoe area but were always interested. Shirley continued to send us listings and information on the market. She always returned phone calls promptly, answered our unlimited questions. Never did we feel any pressure. Lake Tahoe is a unique place, Shirleys’s knowledge of the area led us to our diamond in the rough and we couldn’t be happier. Shirley was with us from start to finish. Thank you Shirley.

"NICOLE STEVENS1 review8 months agoShirley Russell is an excellent realtor who's number one goal is to help you find the perfect home. I wanted to buy a home in South Lake Tahoe but lived in Southern California and my work made it hard to travel to Tahoe to view homes. Shirley understood my needs/wants and worked hard to find the houses in my price range. I was able to view the houses virtually and within a few months I found and purchased the perfect home. Even after she closed escrow, Shirley has stayed in touch to make sure my transition into my South Lake Tahoe home has gone smoothly. If you want a realtor who is hardworking, diligent and honest you won't go wrong with Shirley Russell."
"Scott Lifton2 reviews8 months agoShirley was an absolute professional handling my mother’s estate. My situation working with Shirley was remote due to my residence is in New Hampshire. Shirley created the to-do list and expedited/orchestrated the efforts as needed with constant communication and approval. Shirley handled many interactions between all the parties involved as needed. Shirley also acted as a sounding board for options/decisions during the dynamic real-estate market.Thank You So Much!!!!!Scott and Rhonda Lifton"
"Yanessa's Life Hacks1 review8 months agoMy husband and I had an idea to go see more than 16 homes on a Sunday. It was the only day we had off and coming from San Francisco. When we met Shirley a few weeks ago, she had printed out all the homes we wanted to see. She had it all scheduled. We wanted to see 15 mins to 20 mins with each property, which was enough for us. We started at 10:30am. Shirley was very patient with us. She is very professional and understanding. We drove around South Lake Tahoe on a 6 mile radius, around and around, back and forth until the late afternoon..in and out of so many different buildings. By the 8th or 9th property, we had found the ONE. It is now ours. Shirley put in 110% to find us a home in South Lake Tahoe. Thanks Shirley, you are the best."
"AN S1 review2 years agoPositive: Professionalism, ResponsivenessI had a wonderful experience working with Shirley! Shirley contacted me through the real estate company I was using to sell my house in the Central Valley. The market in Tahoe for my budget is very fast, and I was having doubts about the move and feeling a little discouraged. But Shirley reassured me that we would find something in my price range and i would love it. AND WE DID! She helped me get a house off the pioneer trail that I absolutely love. The closing processs was so stressful, but Shirley was always available to answer my questions promptly and help me to understand each step. I know she’s very busy, but she always made me feel important 15/10 highly recommended "
