EDUCATION…I attended Cabrillo College and then went on to receive a Bachelors of Science in Business from Sonoma State University. I got my license in 2013 and have worked in the field as an Assistant and previous Transaction Coordinator for almost 14 years.

Reviews from Satisfied Clients

"As a first time home buyer I had no idea what to expect from the process. Then I met Jillian. From the very start Jillian set up email notifications so that I could see what was on the market almost the instant a property that fit my criteria became available. And when we got to the point of making offers, counter-offers, negotiating last minute details with the seller, and finally to the closing day, Jillian was absolutely there for me every step of the way. I really appreciated her expertise and ability to handle all of the details and explain things to me in a very competent and reassuring way. Now that I'm about to move into my new place, I am so grateful that I had such a great agent by my side. Jillian and I shared a lot fun moments along the way, and I appreciate her professionalism, guidance, and candor. She has a great rapport with other agents, the mortgage agent, and the title company, and was able to easily facilitate communication back and forth, saving me a lot of time and making it much easier than I had expected. Jillian went above and beyond to help me get quotes for the minor details that needed to be taken care of in my new place before I moved in. So I need new bathroom flooring? I had no idea who to call, but Jillian called on her network of contacts and was able to connect me with a flooring expert who gave a great bid and got the work done beautifully and easily. And that's just one of the many things she did that went far beyond just making the offer and closing the sale. Kudos, Jillian. Thank you so much for helping me to become a home owner. I couldn't have done it without you!"

Omid and Tricia, Buyers August 2016

"I've bought and sold multiple times before and know a good realtor when I see one. Jillian Holmberg is an exceptional realtor. She cares deeply about her clients and tries to make the whole process as low stress as possible. She was prompt in her responses and information sharing. She was born and raised in the Santa Cruz area and thus knows all the nuances of the market. She is creative and aggressive in her market strategy and flexible enough to adapt when the market changed. She is a true professional."
