Suzanne helped us purchase our Snowcreek townhouse. I think our deal would have fallen through if we had been working with another agent. While willing to show us anything we asked to see ( and we requested to see a lot of houses, foreclosures and condos in Mammoth and Crowley Lake) she quickly got a sense of what we really would like and she was "spot on" in picking the places that were good fits and never suggested we see properties that were a waste of our time. Suzanne does whatever it takes to keep her customers happy, even showing our property to potential renters (on her own time and for free) and coming over with a product to repair scrathes in the woodwork and helping to do the polishing! Suzanne knows "who is who" in Mammoth and can facilitiate the conversations and fact- finding that make transactions go more smoothly. She also knows the hidden problems with certain complexes or neighborhoods. If she doesn't know the answer to a question she takes the intiative to find out and get back to you quickly. She also has a good idea of what places should sell for and, I think, would be equally effective in representing the sellers' interests as she was for us as buyers. SInce you are likely to spend a lot of time working with your realtor why not pick someone knowledgable, hardworking, ethical, detail-oriented, pleasant and fun? If these qualities are important to you, you can't go wrong with Suzanne!

I think a good realestate agent includes one who takes on situations others do not want - that was Suzanne! I believe what my situation was would be considered a nightmare to all involved, Suzanne handled it to the end, good to her word and got it sold! Home buying and selling is a very emotional situation, Suzanne made it smooth because she was easy to talk to and I was voice my concerns to her, she became a friend who cared and made it much easier to handle. I have already told my friends how great she was and how grateful I was that she stuck by my side under terrible circumstances.
I believe it takes a very special person to make a great all around sales agent. That would be Suzanne Baker!

It was a real pleasure having Suzanne as our real estate agent. We started with just the idea of having a vacation home in the Sierras. She helped us weigh the pros and cons between buying an existing house and buying a lot and building our own home. With her advice we very quickly narrowed our search area. She patiently showed us houses and lots around the area in multiple trips. There was never a hint of pressure for us to make a quick decision. When we finally chose a lot, she made the process of buying it from 400 miles away straightforward and easy. Suzanne also possesses a great deal of knowledge of the Eastern Sierra region. Each house hunting tour with her was also like getting a local and natural history tour. We are happy with the result, and are looking forward to building our dream house. We highly recommend contacting Suzanne for your real estate needs in the Eastern Sierra region.

I listed my investment home with Suzanne just as the market was declining. Her commitment, extensive knowledge of the local markets and marketing skills made it possible for me to sell quickly and to recover as much of my investment as possible given the economic climate at the time.
She went above and beyond what was expected, holding open house on numerous occasions and adding subtle touches to enhance curb appeal and salability. It was a difficult transaction at a very difficult time for the market and her negotiating skills proved quite useful.
I would strongly and, without hesitation, recommend Suzanne Baker to any prospective seller (or buyer) in Mammoth and the Eastern Sierra region. She is there, every step of the way, to be helpful. She is efficient and effective. Her honesty, integrity and work ethic are truly unique.

I am almost 65 years old and I have bought and sold at least 10 properties over my lifetime.
Recently I sold 7.6 acres in Mono County, California
I was fortunate to have Suzanne Baker of Coldwell Banker Mammoth Real Estate as my realtor for this transaction.
She took the listing, went out of her way to get the property sold, and her enthusiasm for selling real estate was really refreshing.
This was a very difficult time in my life and during the time the property was in escrow I had to go into the hospital for emergency surgery. Suzanne was professional and yet personable during this whole situation, and she demonstrated the perfect mixed of professionalism and personal concern for my situation.
I guess the best recommendation I could make is that I recently asked Suzanne if she could help me get my buildable lot in Nevada sold, but she was not able to do it because she is not working in Nevada right now.
She is just terrific. And what a nice person. She went out of her way, she was meticulous in her ethics, since she was representing both sides and I don't know what else to say, except if I ever were buying or selling in the area, I'd go straight to Suzanne Baker at Coldwell Banker is Mammoth.

Suzanne is the most professional and hard working agent we have ever met. She focused on our long term satisfaction and not just about a "quick sale." Her work ethic, loyalty, and honesty are characteristics that are hard to come by. She definitely goes above and beyond the call of duty.
Suzanne's patience was truly a virtue as we searched for a condo over a period of months, and her knowledge about Mammoth was instrumental when deciding on the right one. She shined in helping us obtain it with ease and at the right price. Suzanne was wonderful in guiding us through our escrow, keeping us informed as she took care of every detail. We went from client to friends along the way, and always felt that she was there for us. We would highly recommend Suzanne, a truly exceptional real estate agent.

Suzanne was extremely helpful, efficient, and attentive in her role as my real estate agent. She was easy to contact and always prompt in returning phone calls. Because I was dealing with her long distance, she made the whole process very easy by providing electronic signing for all my papers. She provided me with names and numbers of local businesses and utility companies that I might need once I bought the property. She was very honest in providing her expertise and advice when asked. I would highly recommend her for any real estate needs.

Suzanne is the most knowledgable, hard working, caring realtor I ever could have hoped for. She cares for each of her clients in such a way that makes the stressful home buying experience actually enjoyable by listening to your needs and wants in every way and accommodating them however possible. She makes the whole process easy and seamless. Once you have closed you feel you have a friend for life not just a realtor.

Our experience in working with Suzanne was a true pleasure. She had a great sense of the Mammoth area and was able to pinpoint what we were looking for right away. She was helpful, professional and took care of so many details for us since we were living out of the area. I would not hesitate in referring anyone to her for their real estate needs in the Mammoth area. 5 stars for local knowledge, expertise, responsiveness, and negotiation skills!

It is with great pleasure that we write to recommend the real estate services of Suzanne Baker. We had the opportunity to work with Suzanne while looking for condos in Mammoth Lakes. She worked with us throughout the entire process and made it as easy as possible. Her attention to detail and knowledge of the field were invaluable, especially due to the fact that we were purchasing the condo from 300 miles away. We enjoyed working with Suzanne and highly recommend her services to any potential clients.

After several years of coming to Mammoth, last year I decided that it was time to buy a condo. I had spoken to several realtors throughout the years but decided that I needed somebody dedicated to working with me. I set aside some time one day to call some local Mammoth realtors.
My first call was to Coldwell Banker. I was transferred to Suzanne Baker. I advised Suzanne of my needs and requirements. I immediately felt a comfort level with Suzanne. I did not even contact any other realtors! Within hours of speaking to Suzanne, she sent me a list of properties which matched my requirements. Several days later, I came to Mammoth and Suzanne toured me through all of the properties. Suzanne quickly zeroed in on what appealed to me.
Trying to balance travel from L.A. to Mammoth along with activities and house hunting can be a time consuming daunting task. Patience is highly recommended. The coming winter months made it difficult to get access to available properties, as the quality ones are usually rented during this period. Suzanne kept me informed of the market conditions and available listings during this period. I refocused my efforts during the spring and identified a few possibilities. Suzanne was very diligent sending me info and pictures of the properties that I was looking for. I identified a unit and put an offer in. It was accepted and within 30 days I became the proud owner of my dream vacation condo!!!
Suzanne’s efforts did not end when escrow closed. She has been very helpful with suggestions and recommendation of contractors. I now have my local Mammoth realtor and a trusted friend!
I highly recommend Suzanne for all of your real estate needs.

Suzanne Baker was extremely attentive. She listened closely to our criteria for a property and she showed us very appropriate properties. She was very pleasant and professional and I couldn't be happier with the experience (or, of course, the outcome).
