About Douglas

About
I am a native to El Dorado County, I grew up in Diamond Springs and graduated from El Dorado High School, where I played varsity basketball and baseball. I was licensed as a real estate agent in 1991 and became a broker a few years later. I love helping people and that passion comes through in my work. I love to make this process fun and meaningful for my clients. I have been mentored by my father who has had his real estate license since 1968, is still active and teaches real estate at the Cosumnes River College for the past 50 years. I have been married to my high school sweetheart since 1994 and we work together in real estate. My passions include bamboo, bulldogs, and local wines.

Kim L. bought a home in Camino

My husband and I have had the privilege to have Doug Zeller as our realtor on two different occasions. We first met Doug as first time home buyers nearly 20 years ago. Doug was very knowledgeable and supportive as we navigated through that process. When we decided to sell our home 12 years later, we didn't think twice about asking Doug to list our home. Even though the housing market was declining at that time, Doug had our house sold in two weeks for close to the listing price. Mr. Zeller went above and beyond as we searched for our current home. We appreciated his patience as we toured dozens of houses all over the county. When we finally found our "dream home" his expertise in our negotiations resulted in us saving a lot of money. Our family is thankful for all his hard work on our behalf and we credit Doug for making this house our home.

Brad O. bought a home in Lotus

Doug was a pleasure to do business with. He met with us on short notice and showed us a piece of property that checked all of our boxes. He helped us construct an offer, counteroffer and close the sale over a long weekend. Doug kept us informed during the escrow process. He answered all of our questions and did considerable research to get us the best information available. He continues to stay in touch and help us with questions about the area post-sale.

Linda V. sold a home in Placerville

Doug Zeller was a guiding angel in the selling of my house and the purchase of my new house. I had never bought or sold a house before and was ill informed regarding almost every aspect. I will use him again and recommend him to my friends. Thank you, Doug

Steve M. sold a home in Cameron Park

We can not recommend Doug and Nicole enough. Very professorial class act. Right from the get go they were on top of what need to be done to get our home on the market and sold. Doug was always keeping in touch with us communicating and keeping us in the loop, as well as helping us get through all of our inspections. Any time we had a question or concern he was always right there. Never more than a phone call or text away. Doug and Nicole really made the home selling process fun!!

Dennis H. sold a home in Placerville

Doug and Nicole are a true power couple in teaming up to successfully market and sell our home. Not only the technical expertise in providing quality 3 D photo tours and drone shots, but the understanding they have of the needs and requirements of both the seller and the buyer proved invaluable. The process was as seamless as I could have hoped for and they were right there providing the pertinent care and coaching the process required. They have our highest recommendation.

Melody H. sold a home in Placerville

Selling ones home is challenging with so many different stressors. We found our realtor to be educated, with common sense know-how, that helped us navigate this event with minimal disruption to our lives. We were fortunate in having lovely buyers purchase our home. But, I am confident that no matter what difficulty we encountered, Doug would have been up to the challenge to keep the process going to reach a successful sale of our home. It really is true, finding the right price is just the beginning. The hard work comes through the process & especially at the conclusion to get everyone to sign the papers! Its not over until funding! We give 5***** to Doug! We were in great hands from start to finish.

Greg W. sold a home in Placerville

Honestly I have always grouped realtors with lawyers used car salesmen and catfish, bottom dwelling scum suckers. Doug has changed that, absolutely and without question. Doug was upfront, honest and more helpful than I every expected a realtor to be. He always returned calls, very proactive in his quest to sell my home of 20 plus years, on point in every aspect, especially with honest upfront communication. Doug and his team hit the door running and never stopped. His knowledge of the market, surrounding areas, his skill in what, when and how to prep my home showed in everything he did. Doug made me feel like I actually mattered, not just another dollar sign, It really did matter to him, and it showed. I highly recommend Doug and his team if you are looking to buy or sell, Doug can help. If he worked out of state, I would have him help me buy my new home. Its a shame really, as now I have to go back and sort through the catfish. LOL.

John S. bought a home in Cameron Park

My confidence in Doug Zeller is so high that I let him bid on my purchase before I looked at the house. My best purchasing experience, ever. I've bought several homes in the past and Doug Zeller is by far the most customer oriented. I never felt rushed or like I was wasting his time. I made multiple changes to my home purchase interests and criteria but Doug always made adjustments. He is patient, listens, and understands what drives a personal decision to purchase. When it came time for the purchasing contract, he talked to me about all the little details that I never thought about. If you're going to buy a house talk to Doug! Doug Zeller is in real estate because he cares about the people he is helping.
