Posted on Brent RichNovember 29, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Working with Doug made the experience significantly less stressful than it could have been. We were under a tight timeline to relocate with a <25 day escrow. Doug helped ensure everything was in order, checked in with the insurance company, the mortgage lender, and our family office / financial advisors to make the process as smooth as possible. Everything went as expected and ended up quite boring which was the best outcome in this situation.Posted on Yang TangNovember 18, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently worked with Doug to purchase our dream home, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the beginning, Doug stood out because he truly listens. He took the time to understand what we wanted and never tried to push us in any direction. His communication was always clear, straightforward, and honest, something we really appreciated throughout the entire process. We chose Doug over two other agents because he came across as the most knowledgeable and the strongest local expert. That proved to be absolutely true. His insights, calm approach, and professionalism made the home-buying process smooth and stress-free. If you’re looking for an agent who is trustworthy, patient, and genuinely committed to helping you find the right home, we highly recommend Doug.Posted on Brad LusherNovember 18, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We listed our home with 680 Doug Buenz Group. Doug and his colleague, Crystal Jackson, efficiently facilitated all aspects of preparing our home for sale. They provided valuable suggestions for marketing of our home. The house sold and escrow closed within two weeks of listing. We were extremely satisfied with the services we received.Posted on Tegan McLaneAugust 28, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We worked with Doug to sell my parents' home of 43 years. After years of seeing him successfully sell in their neighborhood, they had long planned to work with him when the time came to sell. The market has changed so much in the interim, but Doug did not disappoint. He convinced my mom to update her beloved traditional English style decor for modern buyers' tastes and wound up selling above asking. Doug easily connected us with all the expert contractors we needed, handled arrangements to update the house for us after we moved out of town, and facilitated a quick sale.Posted on Harsha JujjavarapuJuly 25, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently had the pleasure of working with Doug and CJ to sell our home, and I can’t recommend them highly enough. Some concrete feedback: 1. They are very data-driven. Early in the process, they would come armed with spreadsheets showing market comps, and would be able to speak in detail about each house on the market (even ones they were not representing). They helped us set a pricing strategy that balanced aggressiveness with realism. 2. Logistics: they coordinated everything from staging to photography with amazing precision. The marketing materials such as photos, video, copywriting, and listing website were top-tier and clearly stood out in a competitive market. 3. Responsiveness: every message, question, and concern was addressed quickly and thoroughly, no matter the hour. Ultimately, we sold our house in a very challenging market for a price we liked, and it was largely thanks to their efforts!Posted on Chinmay ShuklaApril 6, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
