Testimonials ...
We can’t imagine any agent being more there for us and understanding our needs and concerns. From the initial showings, to making and negotiating the offer, for all the little worries that seemed so big to us, and for even answering questions after all the paperwork had long since been signed, thank you for the peace of mind that allowed us to sleep at night without all the pins and needles everyone told us we would surely experience buying a home. Thank you for making this very special event one that we always felt secure in making every step of the way with you at our side.
Keep up the great work.
~Joe and Perpetua Bauer-Ryan~We have been party to several real estate transactions and we want you to know your thoughtfulness and thorough handling of all details far exceed any previously experienced deals. Your kindness and sincerity were ‘A Number One’.

I want to make time to express my deepest appreciation for the quality of work done for my recent purchase of a house in Ocean Beach. Beth Zedaker, agent for the sale is fabulous! I found the house on Monday and left on Thursday knowing that the only work left was getting mortgage approval. Beth is quick, sharp, personable, dedicated and unbelievably competent. She not only facilitated quick negotiation of the sale price, but helped me find a mortgage company, insurance coverage and smooth sailed me through the paperwork that with anyone else at the helm would have drown me! She has stuck by all the proceedings- past the turnover of the house keys. I have bought and sold four houses in my lifetime---working with many real estate agents, lawyers, et al- never have I found the process to be so efficient and painless!
She actually made the process enjoyable!

As first time homebuyers we were very apprehensive about the whole buying process. We had no idea where to turn until a friend mentioned Beth. As soon as we met Beth we felt we had a guide and an advocate. We know it was Beth’s long experience and many contacts in the San Diego real estate market that enabled us to find the perfect house before it went on the market. Beth helped with arranging financing and getting pre-approval for a home loan, which made our offer to the sellers attractive. We believe that getting in an early, attractive offer enabled us to avoid a bidding war on the house. This helped us to purchase well inside our budget. Thanks to Beth we are now enjoying home ownership in the area where we wanted to live, at the price we needed, and in a house that has all the features we hoped for- and then some!
~Anne-Elizabeth Powell and Phyllis Fox~During the past summer, I had the pleasure of doing business with Mrs. Beth Zedaker of the Willis Allen Company. My favorite aunt, who lived in the San Diego area, was placed in a nursing home and her house had to be sold. I live in Minnesota and accomplishing this task was quite a problem for me. I called my neighbor, who is an agent for a prestigious firm in the Twin Cities, and he did some research. He returned my call to recommend the Willis Allen Company. He had already called them and requested their “best agent” to contact me. Within a few hours, Beth contacted me. Her promptness impressed me first. As I spoke with her, I realized what a knowledgeable, honest, friendly professional I was speaking with. She had already done her homework and had a detailed plan in mind.
My aunt’s home, as with all of us, is very precious to her. Beth’s recognition and understanding of this made me feel I was in good hands. It is not easy to put your trust in a total stranger, to say nothing of the practical aspects of selling property long distance. Because it was a duplex, the problem of rental property became apparent. Beth’s knowledge and personality was hard at work for us. She advised me accordingly and properly in all the decision making and updated me daily. She handled every detail to perfection, and left me only to answer my phone. She recommended a capable, reliable person to manage the estate sale and a competent, reasonably priced handyman to do the necessary repairs. The house was on the market only a few days and we had eight purchase agreements. Beth devoted many hours beyond the call of duty to assist me in making the final decision. Her efficiency also made a closing possible in a very short time.
I cannot tell you how impressed I am with Beth. She turned a potential nightmare into a dream. I would highly recommend Beth Zedaker of the Willis Allen Co. to assist you with your real estate needs. You would not be disappointed. My only regret is not being able to meet her in person.
~Chris Addington, R.N., BS, CNOR~Beth did absolutely everything. She went out of her way to take care of every detail. She made phone calls she didn't have to. She delivered papers to sign, she worked after hours. When our house sold she thought ahead, contacted our lender. She even coordinated the extermination and helped reserve a room for us in the meantime. I on the other hand did virtually nothing but sign papers, most of which Beth hand delivered. I can’t see how anyone could possibly as for anything more.

Beth was everything I expected in a real estate professional and more. Her experience, attention to detail and follow-through were very important to me. What has set Beth apart from her peers is the personal attention she gives to the people she represents. She handled many issues that were above and beyond her responsibilities of selling a home. It was a pleasure to work with Beth. If someone is looking for an agent who is sincere in their personal commitments, then Beth is the person you should call.
~Cary Blanchette, CFRE~It recently became necessary to list and sell my mother’s house in Ocean Beach. On a friend’s recommendation, we interviewed and then selected Beth as our agent. We could not have chosen a better person! She proved to be a knowledgeable, diligent, professional salesperson who guided us skillfully through the often-confusing world of real estate sales. Further, she sold the house ASAP for a very fair price. To anyone considering Beth Zedaker as a listing or selling agent, I offer my unqualified good recommendation!
~Frank P. Conger~When my husband and I decided to make a huge change in our lives, moving from San Diego to Iowa, we wanted an agent who would help make the sale of our home as easy and painless as possible. However, past real estate transactions with other agents had been nightmares, and my husband and I were aprehensive when it came time to select an agent to represent us. Beth was referred to us by friends who couldn't say enough nice things about her. Well, from the moment we met her we agreed.
Beth was professional, knowledgeable, helpful and very patient throughout the entire selling process. After only 14 days we accepted an offer. However, what started out to be an easy escrow quickly turned into a potentially difficult situation. But Beth always kept us informed. Her calm and reassuring manner kept me from becoming an emotional basket case. Because of her hard work, dedication and expert advise we ended up closing pretty much on time. During this process, whenever I had a concern or question, Beth was always available and never made me feel like an imposition. I'd like to add that Beth is always accessible. In fact, when the escrow difficulties began, Beth was on a well deserved vacation out of state. But she was in constant contact with the buying agent, escrow and me. I was truly impressed at how much she really cared about us and making sure we didn't worry - even though she was supposed to be on vacation.
Beth, thank you for everything. More agents should have your morals and work ethic. You truly deserve an Agent of the Year Award. You helped make our dream come true!
~Ron and Joanne Carnes~When we were looking for our home, we found that Beth not only had valuable local insight, but she was really able to translate all of our "dream house" wishes into an actual dream house. We had looked on our own for a while and were convinced that we would have to "settle" on something that we didn't really want. After looking at exactly three houses that Beth had picked out for us, we made an offer on a house that was perfect for us.
Beth also had great advice on schools, not only with statistics (test scores, etc.) but the first-hand knowledge that only someone so involved in the community would have. She is a fantastic resource and a true professional!
