Hi Jennifer...
Thanks so much for asking. Nehal is beaming now that we can
have our dog back with us. Thanks for all your help and diligence. I need to send a notice to our landlord and real estate agent. Any suggestions.
Hopefully we can have you over with a few folks.
Cheers,
Alex

Hi Jen,
Jeff and I can not thank you enough for finding us this perfect home! It's big and gorgeous house that our twin girls love to explore everyday. We wake up to a breath taking view of the mountains with luscious greenery. Thank you for placing us in the center of every thing (parks, grocery stores, malls, and even the beach). We can't believe you met all of our requirements! You are the best of the best!!!
Take Care,
Monica, Jeff, Kara, and Sydney

Dear Jen,
You are the poster person for "Go-Getter"! It's great! You are certainly
obviously going to do well in everything you do!
Thanks for being so on top of this rental possibility! I worked all weekend and am
glad the weekend is over. Hope it works out with the townhouse tomorrow. (It did!)
Let me know!
Thanks again!

Dear Linda:
My name is Jill. I signed an agreement with Jerry. He set up that Jenn would work with me. This is to let you know I am very appreciative of your service. I am also a repeat customer from 3 years ago. I was doing an emergency move due to water damage on an asbestos ceiling at my old appt. this time. Less than a week, while I lived in alternate accommodations with the help of my renters insurance (Farmers was great too :-) and Jenn found a new place that could work for me. I was able to keep working since she did the search. My appreciation for the vital service that your agency provides. And Jenn -- please accept my appreciation for her qualities I see: efficiency, compassion, enthusiasm, professionalism, and supportive connection and reassurance. She found me a place and helped me as I needed. Her strengths include how excellently well she "reads" her client and then proposes options. While also giving cheerful reassurance and encouragement. Please pass this message on to her and let her know that I told you of my gratitude.
Thank you!
Gratitude for all we have in our beautiful city.
Gratitude for the vital service your agency provides.

Dear Linda,
I want to thank you for your help in finding an apartment for David and his friends. We appreciate all of Elena's calls to landlords and driving around Santa Barbara. The boys are very happy in the apartment on Castillo and really like the landlord, Rick Lang. Again, thank you, we could not have found the apartment without the assistance of Elena. We would use your services again should the need arise.

Hi Linda,
Thank you for having such a great employee! Jennifer Reams found us
the right place. She was extremely helpful and diligent, always
pushing forward until the perfect place was located. Due to her
positive attitude, determination and commitment to constant searching
we found a charming house. Jenn provided great communication
throughout the whole process and always listened to our needs. She
was flexible, adapting to our schedule requirements and changing
parameters. Her assistance allowed us to find a place to live in
Santa Barbara while we were busy in Orange County. The experience of
working with Jenn was outstanding and I will be highly recommending
your services.
Sincerely,
Alisha Camana
Dear Linda,
Thank you so much for giving us Jennifer on our out-of-town search for an apartment for the girls! She was delightful to work with, patient with my poor communication, and diligent in giving us a range of choices, all good ones. It was a huge relief to have this settled before they arrive.
Thanks again!

Hi Linda!
Will and I want to really thank you and Jen for finding us our
house. I know that we were frustrated in the beginning, but your assurance
and confidence put us at ease.
We love the fruit trees, and the quiet neighborhood!
Jen was patient and hard working and did a super job! We
are very satisfied customers and will definitely recommend your ‘Personal
Shopper’(Relocation) service to anyone we know who is moving. We are amazed at how
quickly Jen found a house for us! Have a great day! Thanks so much
again...

Dear Jenn and Preferred Rental,
I would definitely recommend Preferred Rental Service to friends and family looking for excellent service, reliable property information, and that much-needed personal touch. We were far from our chosen destination, and our agent made us fully aware of the right neighborhoods and units that fit our lifestyle. What would have been a near impossible situation on our end was a breeze.
This is from my wife who is thrilled,
Thanks again!
Matt and Marge Perko
Dear Preferred Rentals,
It has been an incredible journey with your company. I felt at home as soon as I walked through the door of my new apartment! I was over whelmed with joy. Anne exactly knew where my heart was. She was and is an extra-ordinary person (angel,) and at the same time I feel I’ve made a new friend in the years to come. I was finally home at last. Praise the Lord!!! In gratitude, my son and daughter are indebted to you. Your company is not just a business, but angels with a mission to serve those in need during this economic crisis. May your company continue to prosper in Christ name.
Yours in Christ,
Josie and Family
Hello Jerry - Sweden calling.
It seems that the boys have found their dream appartment thanks to you and Jenn.
Well spent fee. I have promised the boys to give Jenn all the credit for her work.
They said she turned out more like a friend than anything else and they
really appreciated everything so far. Lets hope that they can finalize this app
during this or early next week.
We will be glad to recommend your agency and have already informed
some others here in Sweden so hopefully that will bring some more business
in this frosty financial climate.
Best regards from a rainy and cold (brrrrr!) Sweden.
Dear Preferred Rental and Jenn,
I have finally moved in and "settled down". This place is very nice and very comfortable. It's hard to imagine a better apartment, or location. Now that I'm here, and have had a look around, I shutter to think about what might have been, had you not pointed me to this place.
I want to thank you for your help, your clear and consistent communication, your listening - and looking for a place that would work for me. I am happy that Linda put you on my case.
Moving cross country is hard enough, but from the moment I first saw this apartment, a great deal of stress was lifted. I was able to pack up and shove off without worries about comfort and relaxation in my new home. I was anxious to get in and get settled, knowing how right it was for me.
Job well done!
Regards,
Jon
Hi Jenn,
Two weeks ago I was at the end of my rope. I had not looked for an
apartment in almost 25 years and was not looking forward to doing so at
this time. Then a friend, Emily McBride, from Village Properties, told
me about the agency with which you work. What a life saver. You can't
imagine how helpful you were in helping us to find an apartment for my
friend and his family. Without your positive attitude and the wealth of
information that you provided us, I can't imagine where we'd be today.
Instead, my friends and their children find themselves in an apartment
with which they fell in love at first sight. I had them say a little
prayer for you. With your enthusiasm, what could have been a drudgery
became more of an adventure. Even the person from whom we rented,
Michael, let us know how pleasant it was to work with you. From my
working experience with you, I know that you have what it takes to
succeed in any business venture you should seek to pursue. I feel
comfortable letting people know of the great service you provided us.

Jenn at Preferred Rental:
I just got back from Santa Barbara a few hours ago and I can't tell you how pleased we are with the house.
Your help was terrific (not to mention your patience with me) ! As I mentioned to you yesterday, you found a house which has 98% of our many qualifications. The bus stop is no further away from the house than Dennis walks to get to The Yoga Center in Larchmont.
I never thought that you would be able to come up with such a great property. Linda said that you would accomplish the task within 4 - 5 weeks and you did.
Thank you so much for your help.
I will take you up on your offer to help with relocation information soon.
Best regards,
Jeffrey
Hi Linda,
I just wanted to thank you and especially Wendy for all the help getting us
into a home. Wendy was incredibly determined, and we really felt like she
went the extra yard for us. Not only did she constantly check for leads in
the normal sources, she made phone calls with her contacts and got us first
shot at houses that weren't even listed yet. When things went wierd in a
couple of our dealings with owners, Wendy was a terrific advocate, and
really looked after our needs. I'd highly recommend Preferred Rental and
Wendy for others looking to rent in the area.
~Thanks again,
Aaron Baker
Elizabeth,
I recently used Preferred Rentals to find my daughter & 3 other college students a house. We had many requirements for the house & I don't live in the Santa Barbara area to know what is what. I needed a 4 bedroom house, in the mesa area, walking distance to the school, in the right price range, good area, clean & that took dogs. Jenn with Preferred Rentals kept in contact with me at all times. She found the perfect house after about 1 month. She then explained to us exactly how to go about getting the house. The girls are moving in, in a couple weeks. She met all the requirements we needed. It was very worth while to us to use preferred rentals our daughter is able to come home for the summer knowing she has a house to move into.
~Sincerely,
Diana
Dear Preferred Rental…
I am very pleased with the service I received from Preferred Rental Services and the work my Personal Shopper Agent did on my behalf. Being new to the area and having special needs for a rental for myself and my disabled 90-year mother posed quite a challenge. By the end of our first week of looking, we had found our place and a few days later are moving in.This was quite a remarkable achievement with a minimal amount of effort and time on my part.
Our agent, Jenn, did a fine job in selecting the best rentals for me to consider that would satisfy our criteria and made the experience even enjoyable. Her experience and knowledge of the rental market was invaluable and gave us an advantage that we would not have had working on our own.
For anyone who has ever looked through the classified ads and wondered where to begin and then had to deal with message machines or already rented responses, signing up for the Personal Shopper Agent will be one of the best things you can do for yourself.
In recently relocating to Santa Barbara from Chicago, Preferred Rentals' Relocation Service was truly indispensable. Their ability to listen to my needs, constant communication, and attention to detail provided me with peace of mind during the moving process. Overall, their insight and local knowledge allowed me to find an ideal apartment in a very competitive rental market and I'd highly recommend their services.
~Marc. Thanks again, Wendy!
My husband and I signed up with your Relocation Service last month and we are so grateful for the amazing home Gianna found us!
Gianna did an amazing job and we also really enjoyed getting to know her throughout the process. She made our stressful situation so pleasant, and it was a huge relief to trust she was on the constant search for us. We knew we wanted to work with her because she had already found our brother and his son the perfect place to live; but the rental she found for us is beyond anything we imagined! It is everything we wanted and more. Had Gianna not been right on top of it—first knowing about the listing, and then getting us in to see it immediately, I know someone would have taken the place before us.
Tomorrow will be our one year wedding anniversary and we’ve been referring to our new Spanish Mediterranean abode as our ‘Biltmore honeymoon suite’ that we spent our wedding night in!
Things have really come full circle for us and Gianna made it all happen; we feel so happy blessed!
We really appreciate your rental services and will be sure to tell our friends.
thanks so much,~ Stephanie & Tucker
I'm thrilled to say Preferred Rental found me a place today, and I simply could not be happier right now! I have been under so much stress and was pretty freaked out last weekend when I saw the state of the market here. Thank you both for understanding and dealing with my concerns so professionally and kindly.
First off, I really appreciated that Jenn went above and beyond the call of duty! After we spoke on Sunday, she wasted no time and dove in on Monday calling and looking at more places. When my rental home came up she pounced on it right away and went to see it. She then called me and immediately sent me tons of pictures so I could make a decision. She was really on top of it every step of the way, very pro-active and followed up regularly. She was great about talking me through each step and providing her recommendations and professional opinion about how to handle the situation.
I realize that there is also a certain amount of luck involved, but I have no doubt that I never, in a million years, would have been able to find a place like this (or anywhere close) without Jenn’s help. It exceeds my expectations, and without a doubt it was her being on top of the listings and re-acting immediately that made it happen! It was so worth the money to have a place that I love and all within only one week!
I've emailed my recruiter who placed me here telling her how valuable this service is and suggesting she recommend it to anyone else she places in the area in the future.

I wanted to find my Dream Home in Santa Barbara. I had problems: I lived in Los Angeles; even more vexing, I had no idea what I really wanted in a Dream Home. Preferred Rental solved my difficulties overnight.
With patient attention and a comprehensive grasp of available rentals in the area, Preferred selected properties for my scrutiny, screened the properties according to my needs and tastes, arranged viewing appointments on my behalf, and stayed in touch with me daily with new leads and developments in the rental realm. Through an amiable process of personal acquaintance with me, Preferred helped me to discover for myself what my residential dreams truly were.
In two weeks, I had a home rental far in excess of my expectations - my every hope had been realized.>
Thanks to Preferred Rentals, I am living in my Dream Home!
Gratefully - Phil
Good News! We got the place on Cota! Thank you so much for all of your efforts in helping us find a rental. I know that it was extremely helpful to be able to have someone go and be our representative. The first thing that everyone asked when I inquired about their rental was, "are you in town, and can you come by and look at it" and it was really nice to be able to say that we were not in town, but that we do have a representative to look at the home for us. I really think that working with you and having you as an advocate also helped us secure this really beautiful home with our three dogs.
Thank you again, - Kasey
Preferred Rental was a very essential part of my successful relocation from Wisconsin. I received helpful, experienced and friendly service. Having them find great housing for me made my move go smoothly. I highly recommend using their service.
- Carole
Dear Preferred Rental, Thank you!! Thank you!! We just LOVE the apartment you found for us. Trying to find a place in Santa Barbara while still living in Palm Springs was proving to be impossible, and then we heard of your "Personal Shopper" service and decided to give it a try. And are we happy we did!!! After meeting with us one time, you went to work lining up places for us to tour. In ONE trip to Santa Barbara we found the perfect place. We NEVER could have done this on our own.
~Thank you again, - Doug and Donna

Hi Linda,
We recently found a place here in Santa Barbara and will no longer need the Rental Guide. Thank you for the offer, and the list has helped us in finding a place.
Thank you again,
Ivan
Dear Linda,
Thank you so much for sending the receipt. Julia was a wonderful agent and helpful. She was a good match for us and was helpful in finding a place that was in the range of what we wanted to pay, its a safe area, close to the City College and a part of a complex with other young people and students. My daughter and friends are very happy there finishing up their first week as they settle in. We couldn't have done better if we came out our selves from NY...in fact I doubt we could have done as well. Thanks so much for your service as it was well worth every penny for the above reasons and for peace of mind.
Sincerely,
Betty Reinhart
Linda,
Thanks for all your follow-ups. Both my wife and I and our sister-in-law have found excellent digs, so please remove my name from you email list.
Nice service!
Dave
Hi Jerry,
This is Tom with a home on Medio Rd. on the Riviera. Last week we put our house on your free listing and the next day the perfect renters showed up. So it should be taken off the listing. I don't see a way to do that online. It's the 4/3, unfurnished, 4500/month available 3/1. Thanks so much for your help and I feel a little guilty it went so fast just using the free listing -- I didn't expect that. We'll definitely refer people to your site and service. Thanks again.
Thanks Wendy did a great job finding our kids somewhere to rent, while they are attending SBCC. She had to put up with my constant e-mails and looking at rental units that would fit into the needs of our precious loved ones. Bob is also a wonderful person, and I am looking forward to meeting with him when we get up to Santa Barbara.
Thanks again, and we (all the parents) appreciate all your help.
Erin
Thank you Preferred Rental, I found a studio using your service and signed the lease on Thursday therefore, I will no longer require updates. Thank You!
~Sincerely,
Jacqui
Hi Linda, I wanted to let you know that I found a terrific rental on only the 2nd list you guys sent me...it's a wonderful cottage on Orella and I’m moving in this week. I wanted to let you know that your service is really great, and also that you don't need to send me future listings. It was well worth the fee.
~Thanks again. Jerry
Just wanted to let you know that we rented a jewel! Thanks to your list, we will be taking possession of it on December 1. Thank you so much for making this go-round so easy!
-Penny
With your help I found a place. It's a beautiful studio 2 blocks from the beach. Thank you so much!
-Mike
We found a place off the first list you sent. Great service, I've recommended it to 2 people already.
Thanks again, - Joe
I wanted to let you know I found a rental from the list. I met with the owner and he has agreed to rent to me and my dog. I am SO excited. Thank you SO much. It didn't take long at all for me to find just the right place. Thanks so much for everything. Your service is great and I'm so happy about finding the rental.
Best regards, - Allie
I would like to thank you for everything. It has been very stressful trying to find a new place. Contacting you was the best decision I could possibly make. This has taken a great burden off of my shoulders. I was quite honestly wowed by the service I received. So again, a great many thanks to you.
-Miguel
I wanted you know that we found a place from your listing. Thank you so much for your help and w/o your help/listings it would have taken us longer to find a place with our animals.
Kind Regards, - Sarah
I just want to thank you for your help in helping us find an apartment for my daughter and her roommates. Until we met you our search for housing was confusing, frustrating and unattainable. You made it easy. -Cherie
I have actually found a place, thank you for the concern. You're service has the highest quality listings in the area. Thank you.
-Chris
I used Preferred Rental last year in my search for a rental and was very pleased with your services. I have since recommended your company to a number of people, at least 2 of which have found rentals through the services as well. Thank you for your assistance.
I really want to thank you for helping me find my studio/garage conversion apt. It is adorable and I probably wouldn't have found it if I hadn't joined your service. I had looked in the classified for 2 weeks and always missed out. Thank you for all your help.
- K. Anderson
