"Jeff Schween of Compass Realty is an exceptional Real Estate Agent. His vast knowledge of the local Real Estate market in Santa Rosa was so helpful to the sale of our Mom's home (she had passed and this was her long time home). He is personable, dedicated to his clients from start to finish and really listens to our needs and wishes. He was strongly recommended by a friend and former Realtor in the Santa Barbara County and I was not disappointed with the work he did and the recommendation was well deserved! I would highly recommend Jeff Schween to everyone who is looking for the BEST of the BEST in the Realty Business!"

"We want to thank you for walking us through the process of buying our first home! As you know, neither of us had any experience in purchasing property. We were also trying to do this remotely and during a brand new job (for me). Despite the inherently stressful nature of this process, we learned a ton and we felt incredibly supported by you. We..."

"We want to thank you for walking us through the process of buying our first home! As you know, neither of us had any experience in purchasing property. We were also trying to do this remotely and during a brand new job (for me). Despite the inherently stressful nature of this process, we learned a ton and we felt incredibly supported by you. We absolutely felt heard. We also felt like you were honest and working for our best interests when we were considering properties that could be headaches. That can be hard and you did it with grace. Thank you for that! We agreed that we got Baywood because of your expertise and understanding of the Petaluma market. You have so clearly found the right occupation! Thank you for your hard work, Jeff! Lia and Katie"

"Amazing – the Schween’s educated us on the process and handled everything smoothly. When buyers fell out of escrow, they worked tirelessly to reach out to other offers. Great experience - kind, compassionate, understanding team. We were able to sell our home in the time frame we needed and at a price that was above our expectations thanks to the team of Jeff and Tracey Schween. At times it was stressful, but we felt secure knowing they had our backs. We knew they were handling many other clients besides us, but it never felt that way. We always felt like we were their only concern, and we are grateful and appreciative of the fantastic attention and service! Our first home selling experience. Tracey helped us navigate the process and was sympathetic to our needs as we sold our home for 25 years."

"I can't say enough good things about the Santa Rosa Realtor® that I partnered with to help me flip a house in Santa Rosa at 895 Quietwater Ridge. They were the seller’s agent when I purchased the Santa Rosa home and I hired them to be my seller’s agent when I listed it for sale.

"I can't say enough good things about the Santa Rosa Realtor® that I partnered with to help me flip a house in Santa Rosa at 895 Quietwater Ridge. They were the seller’s agent when I purchased the Santa Rosa home and I hired them to be my seller’s agent when I listed it for sale. My experience with Jeff and his wife was more than just a typical real estate transaction. Jeff and I became quasi-business partners in getting the house ready to list and I gave him the numbers that I needed and he gave me an honest assessment of what it would take to update the house. He pinpointed exactly what updates to do to make it market-ready and maximize profit. He was the point person to handle all the subs and was willing to work with me on commission if we went below what I needed to make the project work. Fortunately, we got a full-price offer with no contingencies which is an indication that Jeff and Tracey were right on the money about what updates to do to stimulate an offer. I have dealt with a lot of Realtors® over the years, most are just hungry for their commission and do the minimum effort to get it. But every now and then I've been fortunate enough to come across a Realtor® who has the mentality that this is their business and they approach each person with that mindset. Jeff and Tracey are this way. Whatever your needs are, they will find a way to help you. They are true professionals."

"We first worked with Tracey and Jeff in 2009 when looking for a rental home for our daughter who was then living in a rental that would have 2 inches of water in the living room when it rained.

"We first worked with Tracey and Jeff in 2009 when looking for a rental home for our daughter who was then living in a rental that would have 2 inches of water in the living room when it rained. They found us a home that was unbelievably priced at the time, it has more than doubled in value, and my daughter's rent went down substantially as a result. Some minor remodeling was all that was needed to improve it substantially. In 2010 we decided to get another rental for a long-time employee and it has been perfect in every way for her with some minor remodeling. It has almost doubled in value. In 2013 we decided to buy a more expensive rental home near Memorial Hospital and once again they found us a perfect home, my daughter now lives there and is tickled. Even that home is worth about 40% more. In 2014 my wife's sister moved back to Santa Rosa and wanted a home under $450,000 within walking distance of Downtown with three bedrooms and about 1500 square feet I told her that her chances were zero but to give Jeff and Tracey the job of finding it. Of course, they did find one and my sister-in-law couldn't be happier. If you are looking for a team to find you that perfect fit, even at a price that might be questionable they are the ones for the job. Fantastic people who do a fantastic job. Can't recommend them highly enough."
