"Our experience was simply amazing!"
My husband and I decided to buy a house in the Rocklin area while living in the DC area. We were referred to The Goolsby Group and our experience was simply amazing! Geoff was a tremendous asset throughout the entire home search process, negotiation, purchase, and closing. We couldn't be happier with our home in Rocklin and we are extremely thankful we chose to work with Geoff, whose knowledge and skills are too numerous to list. He had answers to all of our questions and made himself available even while he was away. Geoff consistently went above and beyond to show us countless houses to ensure we found a home that was a perfect fit for our growing family. Geoff will be the first person we call when we look to move again. Thank you again for everything, Geoff!

Great team, great energy, great results
When you sell your home, you basically have two goals: maximize the price and make the process as painless as possible. The Goolsby Group did an amazing job at both as we worked work them to sell our home in Roseville. Their marketing skills are the first thing you'll be impressed by; noting their great use of social media and targeted marketing to get your house in front of just the right buyers. We really appreciated how well they kept us informed of everything going on via weekly calendar updates and constant phone/text info. The net result was multiple offers over the asking price working a couple of days off listing and a truly painless closing process. Great team, great energy, great results! We'd recommend The Goolsby Group to anyone looking for a wonderful home selling experience!!!

The Martins
Let’s face it, moving is not easy. Sure, it can be exciting, fun, and rewarding. Sometimes you move out of necessity and logic and sometimes you follow your heart. The Martin family has moved a few times during my career. They have nicknamed themselves “frequent flyers” with my group. Lol. Love that.
I think what I love most is that every move was from the heart. They love their family and are passionate about spending as much time with them as possible. So they have literally moved throughout 3 different counties to make spending time with family easier.
As you might imagine, moving multiple times takes a toll on you. It’s not easy and it’s not cheap. So for this most recent move, we had to be strategic. Of course, we needed a buyer that would pay them top dollar for their current home. We also needed one that would not push them out of their current home too soon because then they would incur additional moving costs. We also needed to find a home for them to move to! One that didn’t put too much strain on the budget but we couldn’t go too small. They wanted something unique, in Rocklin, with a view, and under budget… We had our work cut out for us.
When I met with the Martins, we discussed a simple plan for them: First, we prep your home for sale now and wait for you to find the home that fits your wishlist and budget. Next, we launch your home to the market once we have found your perfect home. Then, we sell for top dollar and we buy at a discount. Did we encounter challenges along the way? Of course. Real estate transactions are complex. There will always be a challenge or two. Did they win? The Martins sold their home for $5,000 less than their asking price. They bought a bigger home, in Rocklin, with a view, in an amazing neighborhood for a whopping $25,000 less than asking price and nearly $60,000 less than the comparable homes in the neighborhood.
Did they win? They are approximately 15 minutes away from the grandkids, and back in the area that has been home for the last 30 years and they even have more room for the kids when they sleep over at Grandma and Grandpa's. Perhaps the most important win of all.
If you're serious about selling, be serious about talking to Geoff!
Geoff & Laura were true partners in the sales process, from marketing our home to staying on top of the normal escrow issues that arise. This is the 3rd home we've sold, and by-far this was the best sales experience yet! If you're serious about selling, be serious about talking to Geoff!
The Shaws
The Shaw Family probably had one of our wildest rides towards closing. And definitely our most creative "Win". Their home was staged, photographed and aggressively marketed over 1 long weekend. By Tuesday, we had multiple offers and one buyer in contract to purchase their home. A couple of weeks into escrow and after the Shaw family had already moved out of their home, the buyer experienced a tragedy in the family that caused her to have to back out of her purchase of the Shaw's home.
Challenge 1: We were heartbroken by the news of the buyer's tragedy but also faced with the (very real) reality of a home that was not sold, a new home that had already been moved into and the financial burden of doubling the monthly housing payment.
Challenge 2: Even if when we find another buyer, they would have to wait at least a month to close escrow; a daunting thought. Another month of paying both their mortgage and their new rent.
Solution: Find a buyer to buy their home that would also be willing to move into the home and pay rent while they wait for escrow to close.
Of all of the people that were interested in their home, one had been previously overlooked. There was a young family that loved the home but wasn't able to purchase due to some timing constraints. This family was not only willing to purchase their home at a fair price but was also willing to compensate them rent in exchange for being able to move into the home before the closing of escrow.
It was truly a WIN-WIN for both parties.
The Bames
The Bame family was outgrowing their home, quickly. They were the original owners of their first home. When they first bought, the idea of kids was just that, an idea. Fast forward a decade and the reality of growing family, a neighborhood that was beginning to lose some of the original appeals, and the glamorous idea of a shiny new home started to take form within the house. We put a plan together to get them out of the fading neighborhood and into a home that had some serious longevity.
The plan, get the home sold now for top dollar. Move into a short term rental. Wait for a brand new home to be built.
The Bames sold their home in less than 2 weeks for full price. After a swift closing, they were on their way to a short term apartment rental where they would wait to find the forever home. We found an emerging community in Natomas and they absolutely fell in love with a brand new floorplan. So did I, to be honest. It fit everything they needed and once again, they were able to pick the finishes that they wanted. Only this time, with the experience of a second-time homeowner. This new home will continue to be their dream home for years to come.
After they moved in, we talked about their success in real estate. I wasn't even aware of how well we had done. "We have been watching the old neighborhood," Christina started, "and nobody in that neighborhood has been able to sell for as much as we did!"
Did they win? Sold for a record high in the old neighborhood. Purchased the dream home in an emerging new neighborhood that has continued to trend upwards in value.

Selling our home and relocating to another state was one of the biggest decisions we have ever made. Geoff Goolsby and his team couldn't have made the process go any smoother. Their professionalism was appreciated but their kind hearted demeanor and friendly staff was what won us over. Geoff and his team had professional pictures and video taken, flyers were always stocked in front of our house, and the time spent on open houses is what ultimately sold the house. They always were prompt in answering our questions and took care of all the small details so we never felt burdened. Without a doubt I am 100% confident there is no better team to help sell a house in Placer County. Thank you so much to The Jeff and Geoff Team for your time, effort, and expertise in selling our home.

"Geoff got us a WIN!"
Geoff Goolsby was amazing and awesome to work with, as first time home buyers he was there to answer all our questions either in person or over the phone. Being first time home buyers we had a lot of questions, hopefully we didn't drive him to crazy(mainly my husband, lol) we also were moving from the Bay Area to Roseville. So there were a lot of calls being made. Geoff was always calm and professional and there for us every step of the way. Plus we did this in December(Merry Christmas!) Geoff got us a WIN! We got the house below asking price, and got the key the beginning of January.Thanks Geoff and Laura too! She was awesome too! We highly recommend Geoff Goolsby and Team.
