Every Home Has A Story... Let's Find Yours.

Yen Drumheller-Red flower - white (2)

For most of my career I have thrived in a structured legal setting serving members of my community who were in need of meaningful assistance. My experience in that field over the last 16 years have served me well and while I am extremely proud of my work and life accomplishments, especially being a mom of two amazing teenage boys, I knew in my heart that continuing in that 9-5 path meant that I was settling. In addition to being fluent in Lao and Thai, my passion for life is what sets me apart. As a first-generation Lao refugee raised in California, I know a thing or two about life’s struggles and the courage, strength, and tenacity it takes to succeed.

Someone once told me that “success is on the other side of fear,” but success without integrity is not worth having. My integrity coupled with my background in the legal field means that I am thorough, efficient and a go-getter. As a Sacramento State graduate and a longtime Solano County resident, Northern California is where my heart is so it only makes sense that I share this space with my clients. Whether that space is your starter home, an investment property or your forever home, rest assured that I will be with you every step of your buying or selling journey.

Raving Fans...

If you seek a Realtor who will actually work to ensure that you are neither forgotten or take advantage of, then do yourself a favor and choose Yen. Her personal commitment to client's needs and concerns are admirable. Her networking skills, attention to detail, and determination ensure results. Yen’s knowledge of the Solano housing market is top notch and negotiating tact is stellar. I can hardly imagine the buying process proceeding without Yen.

Consulted me on buying and selling a home

Yen was absolutely AMAZING to deal with! She was so patient with me, taking me to see everything I asked to see. She listened to me when I expressed what I was looking for and sent me listings to match my needs and budget. She did a stellar job of communicating with the Seller's agent, and created a collaborative relationship that allowed her to work through the bumps that occurred along the way. She was an incredible ADVOCATE -- she FOUGHT for me when my lender was engaging in shenanigans to slow down the process, and did everything to ensure that we closed escrow on time! She managed every aspect of obtaining all the inspections we needed, and helped ensure that every concern I had was properly addressed. Yen she stuck by my side and sat through the entire document signing process... and THEN came to my new home after purchase to help me figure out how things in the home worked (that collaborative connection she made with Seller's agent really came in handy). She is pleasant, friendly, kind and understanding, and those qualities really helped me work through my anxieties about purchasing a home. If you need a Realtor... YOU NEED YEN!
