Shemeika Fox - Fox Realty Group, Inc.

Fantastic experience: We initially thought selling a house would be challenging, but working with Shemeika made the process much easier due to her knowledge and experience. She was able to connect with potential buyers and effectively present our property, securing the best possible price. As an older person, it can be difficult to find people you can trust, but the sense of security she provided was exceptional.

Fantastic experience: Shemeika was very efficient, communicated well, and was really fun to work with. She was direct, honest, and gave me complete confidence. One of the things I appreciated most was that she worked with me like a partner, rather than someone who was on an "as needed to know" basis. I felt supported and knew she considered my input and respected my decisions. I am going to miss working with her! She's now a friend.

Fantastic experience: I've had the pleasure of working with Shemeika twice in the past year. First she helped my mother buy a house, which she has settled into beautifully and loves. Recently it was my turn and I felt so lucky to have her on my team while I was going through the process of finding my forever home. She got me there! I am loving my new place! But if for some reason, I decide to move again down the road, I will absolutely call Shemeika. She is the best! Fun to work with and never any doubt about her knowledge and competence.

Fantastic experience: It's not every day you meet a person as incredible as Shemeika! From day one it was clear to us that we were working with the right realtor. Searching for the right home for our family was a stressful and overwhelming process and despite all the unknowns, we felt incredibly grounded knowing we had her expertise guiding us along the way. She instantly made it clear she truly cared about our family, our goals, and our needs, and not just the transaction of buying a home. She went above and beyond to make the home-buying adventure organized, thoughtful, and smooth, but also fun and exciting! She put in countless hours to ensure we felt heard and comfortable throughout the process. She is genuine, honest, and down-to-earth. We would highly recommend her to any of our family or friends and will undoubtedly use her again if we ever have other future housing needs! She very quickly became more than an expert realtor and a newly adopted member of our family :) We are forever grateful for you, Shemeika! Thank you for all the ways you show up for your clients and community. Santa Cruz is lucky to have you.

Fantastic experience: Shemeika is phenomenal! I was a first-time home buyer in Santa Cruz after living here for 27 years. I wasn't sure whether I'd be able to afford anything in the area, but Shemeika showed me almost 30 homes in my price range! She was patient and made the process fun, and she protected me from making bad decisions by pointing out issues that I missed, and being very open about her concerns with foundations or water damage etc. She taught me what kinds of problems to look for, and how to be a good buyer. I did find my perfect home and closed earlier this month. I love my new house sooo much! Though I do miss spending weekends house-hunting with Shemeika. I can't imagine going through this process without her! <3

Fantastic experience: I am from out of state and just want to let people know Shemeika is passionate about what she does. She is straightforward and cares about helping you! I highly recommend her to those in her area and out of state for their real estate needs!

Fantastic experience: Shemeika Fox was excellent from the first moment we met. She was professional, friendly and had exceptional knowledge of the current market in our area. It took quite a while to decide on an agent but something told me that Shemeika Fox was the perfect person to handle the sale. She immediately provided a personalized approach, a strategic marketing plan, outstanding communication and strong negotiation skills throughout the process. The property received several offers quickly and closed fast. I’m thankful that I decided to go with Shemeika Fox. Do the same, and you won’t regret it!

Fantastic experience: Shemeika Fox has shown herself to be a very competent realtor who has guided us through the entire process of selling our two homes. As these were our family homes with an emotional attachment to each, she was sensitive to our needs and very professional in all aspects of the selling process. Her expertise in all phases including her advice with listing the property, staging the home, advertising, selling and closing were above and beyond. We are very happy with Shemeika and give her the highest marks as an agent. The Stelling Family 2025

Fantastic experience: Shemeika was extremely professional, friendly and helpful throughout the entire process of selling my home in Aptos! I live 3 hours from Aptos and she made the whole experience simple and pleasant! I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone!

Fantastic experience: Shameika helped me buy a house in Santa Cruz. She was always available with prompt service, good natured help with all concerns and requests. She was reassuringly competent and pleasant throughout the process.

Fantastic experience: Selling my Capitola home in summer 2025 was no small task — high interest rates, lots of competition, and plenty of economic uncertainty. I needed a realtor with a real plan, and Shemeika delivered. A friend had raved about her, and now I know why. From our very first meeting she came prepared with comps, a clear marketing strategy, and a “how-to” guide that quickly became my home-selling bible. Shemeika made me feel like her only client — responsive, attentive, and always steps ahead. She knows the Santa Cruz market inside and out, but what sets her apart is how she combines sharp strategy with genuine care. At different points she was exactly what I needed: a coach, an advocate, mentor, negotiator, therapist, and trusted advisor. She guided me through staging, inspections, and negotiations with confidence and professionalism, making the process far smoother than I was expecting. What impressed me most was her balance of warmth and fierce advocacy — supportive when I needed reassurance, tough when it came time to protect my interests. I absolutely adore and respect her. If you need a realtor who brings creativity, hustle, and heart to the table, Shemeika Fox is the one to call.

Fantastic experience: Best realtor - EVER! Most capable, knowledgeable, professional realtor you will ever meet. Her dedication yields results. We were thrilled with her service and will hire her again in the future.

Fantastic experience: Had an absolutely phenomenal experience working with Shemeika. She went above and beyond to make the process seam-less and smooth. Her communication was fantastic and always prompt. She was willing to go out of her way and work behind the scenes, always making me feel like a priority. Shemeika is incredibly knowledgeable about the area and the market. On top of all of this, she was very approachable, kind, personable, and an all around joy to work with.

Fantastic experience: She responded incredibly quick to my inquires and was exceptionally helpful. Fantastic real estate agent. I would suggest watching her informative YouTube videos. Thank for your professionalism and help!

Fantastic experience: Last year I was in very challenging situation and had to sell my house quickly. After great recommendations from 2 close friends, I called Shemeika Fox. Little did I know that besides being my real estate agent, she would become my advocate and support during a very complicated process. Despite many roadblocks, Shemeika was always positive and tenacious. She was constantly looking out for my best interests and never put me in situations where I felt pressured or uncomfortable. It seemed to me as if I were her only client throughout the entire process. My house sold in less time than I expected, with minimum negotiations, at a fair price. If you are looking for a competent, caring realtor, I can’t think of a better person to recommend than Shemeika Fox.

Fantastic experience: Shemeika was great to work with. Very friendly and professional. She was always prompt to respond to any of our concerns and questions throughout the process and we would definitely work with her again in the future.

Fantastic experience: There is a reason Shemeika has 5 stars. She is very experienced in her job. You get nothing but white glove service from her. She knows her stuff so there are no surprises when doing business with her. Trust her, and she will take good care of you.

Fantastic experience: Shemeika is an amazing realtor. She works tirelessly to make sure all the basis are covered. She has helped us a few times selling property and has done an amazing job from start to finish. She guides you through the process and keeps you in the loop along the way. She has an amazing team she works with to dress your home to sell so it targets the right buyers. She loves what she does and it shows in her work. She is one you can really trust.

Fantastic experience: Shemeika was amazing throughout the whole house buying process - she is super knowledgeable, and really went above and beyond to help us. She went to the city planning office with us to help us figure out permits and lot lines, organized inspections and has so many great contacts. Cannot recommend her enough!

Fantastic experience: My wife and I rather abruptly decided to leave our magnificent mountain home for a much smaller place near the coast. We had only just committed to making this move when a property that met our requirements showed up on the listings; we were immediately put in panic mode as we had an immense job ahead to downsize from a 3000 square foot home with several out buildings and all of the tools and stuff required to maintain our 5 acre property. Shemeika put us in touch with folks that ran an estate sale, hooked us up with movers, and connected us with contractors that will enhance the new abode. She not only made the connections, but personally oversaw most of the inspections and she was always available to answer our questions and provide moral support and encouragement. She has an amazing team and a long list of resources to pull from, were grateful that we had her as our realtor.

Fantastic experience: When my husband and I decided it was time to downsize from our 3000 square foot dream home in the mountains, we started exploring new locations. Unfortunately, we found what we were looking for well before we were ready to put our home on the market. We doubted there was any way we could make this move happen. The magician we found was Shemeika Fox. Shemeika negotiated a contingency offer for the new purchase, and just a couple weeks after staging and super-marketing our home, Shemeika presented us with FiVE offers. We were stunned. But Shemeika's magic didn't end there. Overseeing all inspections; getting repair and remodeling estimates for our new home; connecting us with estate sale agents, movers and more, Shemeika did it all. It was quite a roller-coaster ride, but through it all Shemeika was always at our side, holding our hands and cheering us on. Shemeika isn't just a magician, she is the magic!

Fantastic experience: We cannot imagine having gone through our home buying process without Shemeika! Her natural warmth, encouragement, listening skills, and smile are a bonus to her expert knowledge of both real estate and Santa Cruz County. Shemeika also delivers amazing customer service, truly on a level that is being lost these days. We also appreciated her extensive network of local connections to household / property services in order to swiftly handle a number of contingencies in a very short closing period. We cannot say enough good things about Shemeika and having her represent our family as a realtor.

Fantastic experience: I asked Shemeika for advice on an out-of-state investment property that I own.. I found her to be astute, strategic, and highly knowledgeable. She provided a balanced perspective while supporting my best interests. I found her generous with her time, expertise and information with no concern to recompense. And, she is really, really nice.

Fantastic experience: Shemeika made the entire home buying experience easy and fun. She is an excellent communicator, super knowledgeable and held our hands when we were anxious. Her advice is spot on and she keeps track of every detail. I can’t recommend her enough. My only regret is that we found and purchased our house so fast we don't get to work with her longer!

Fantastic experience: It is hard to write a recommendation becuase I feel it is too bias by how much we ended up loving her! She was awesome all the way through the whole process.

Fantastic experience: We started off working with Shemeika through a friend's recommendation. But, slowly, it became clear that we were meant to work with her... she was clever enough to handle my wife and I differently as we had different needs and requests. She made both of us felt heard and appreciated... all while helping us buy the only house that made sense for us. Shemeika has - what seems like - binders of resources to call... from contractors, to money folks, to movers... YOU NAME IT. And if she doesn't have someone at the ready... she'll have two or three by the end of the day. Thank you Shemeika!!

Fantastic experience: To my favorite realtor!! It has been my pleasure having you by my side through the process of becoming a homeowner. I had many, many questions and you answered all of them in a timely manner. I know that you have other clients but I always felt as though I was the only one. I felt well taken care of and you used your skills and tenacity to get myself and my husband our forever home. Thank you for making this process as easy as could be.

Fantastic experience: Shemeika goes over the top! Great Realtor!!

Fantastic experience: Shemeika is a gem!💎 She’s not just an exceptional real estate agent but also a dedicated professional who truly cares about her clients and their best interest. Would love to have the pleasure of working with her again!

Fantastic experience: Our house was a challenge: 117 years old and super historic, but only half fixed up. Shemeika was our amazing partner in every step of the journey. This is going to sound like a paid advertorial but I promise you it’s not: she literally amazed me several times throughout the process. She was able to step into any role called for: - Active listener who got inside our situation, our problems, our hopes - Responsive communicator making us feel we were her only clients even though I knew otherwise - Expert planner and advisor from start to finish - Wrangler of top notch professionals - Morale booster when we ran out of energy getting things together - Confidant when things didn’t go to plan - Decorator with a flair for highlighting the best aspects of our home - Director of our own video (which got a ton of views!) plus filling the jobs of costume designer, narrator, extra, and bartender! - Designer of beautiful marketing materials - Trivia master for weird real estate questions - Hard-nosed negotiator - Fierce defender of our interests - ...and just a friend when needed. I don’t want to scare anyone, but let’s be real: selling our home has been a roller coaster. In part, it was an emotional journey of losing some of our identity (we put 25 years of sweat and love into that house, and fostered two kids there). It’s also very physical: finally doing some difficult projects we’d put off for years; accepting that some just couldn’t get done; storing all our stuff (so, so much stuff); turning the house into a sparkling showplace that buyers could fall in love with; and working through the complexities of a real estate transaction. It was hard. Hard work, hard moments to get through, hard bumps and scrapes (which box are the band-aids in now?). But with Shemeika as our partner, the impossible became possible for us. Without her we might have despaired and been buried in our possessions for decades. Now we know the next chapter for our beloved home will be written by people who care, and we are free and living a new life. In the end we sold the house for over asking price a few days after the first showing. But that’s a tiny part of the story. Through all of this, we became close. The relationship with a realtor is strange and unique: getting to know Shemeika was an intensely personal experience, while at the same time knowing that it would result in us parting. I will miss her. Thank you Shemeika.

Fantastic experience: Shemeika is the best! Very knowledgeable and took care of everything. She always responded in a quick manner. She really looked out for our family and listen to our needs. I highly recommend her.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Shemeika for buying or selling in the Santa Cruz area! She is a live-wire and a joy to work with. She has excellent energy and enthusiasm while taking the time to really understand the market and what we were looking for.

Fantastic experience: Shemeika Fox is the real deal! Fun, cool, and smart, she effortlessly navigated the complexities of real estate with finesse. Her expertise in marketing ensured our home was showcased perfectly, resulting in a swift sale. Highly recommend her for all your real estate needs!

Fantastic experience: My family had an off-market real estate opportunity arise quickly and Shemeika was able to jump in and make the deal happen. She gave us a thorough analysis of what our options were and we ended up with a great result. I would trust Shemeika to advise on any future real estate matter.

Fantastic experience: Shemeika went above and beyond. She was very helpful and took time to answer all of my questions. She exceeded my expectations!!

Fantastic experience: Amazing realtor! I had a great experience working with Shemeika. She was super focused and organized from the start. I felt very taken care of. She didn't hesitate to share her insights and opinions on properties I was looking at, but was also very open and responsive to my interests. She was patient in taking me around to look at lots of different places and was also just a fun person to accompany me when looking around. I landed in a fantastic first home thanks to Shemeika. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: We had the pleasure of working with our agent, Shemeika Fox, for our recent purchase of housing in Santa Cruz. We cannot recommend Shemeika and her team highly enough. From start to finish, Shemeika's team demonstrated unparalleled professionalism, which provided assurance and professional guidelines throughout the rough ride to search for a perfect home. The team effort Shemeika put together was a great asset and a reason that landed us finding a dream home in Upperwest Santa Cruz! In the past few months, we had ups and downs with making offers, and we couldn't get away with being totally emotional in the highly competitive local housing market sometimes. However, Shemeika showcased professional and extensive experience in the local market at every corner of our house search. One of the standout qualities of Shemeika and her team was her deep knowledge and understanding of the local market. She had a finger on the pulse of the area, providing valuable insights and guidance throughout the entire process. Her familiarity with the neighborhood and her connections within the community truly set her apart. Furthermore, we were consistently impressed by Shemeika's exceptional negotiation skills. She tirelessly advocated for our best interests and consistently secured favorable outcomes. Her ability to navigate complex negotiations and find creative solutions was truly remarkable. Not only was Shemeika and her team consummate professional, but she was also incredibly approachable. She consistently made herself available to address our questions or concerns, providing clear and prompt communication. Her friendly demeanor and willingness to go above and beyond made the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free. Working with Shemeika and her team was an absolute pleasure. Her professionalism, local market expertise, outstanding negotiation skills, and approachability make her an exceptional realtor. We wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone needing a dedicated and knowledgeable real estate professional. Go, Shemeika Fox; we thank you so much!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing customer service. Truly has your wants, your needs, and your overall well being in mind. Extremely professional and diligent in ensuring the best outcome for the best price. Truly customer service driven.

Fantastic experience: Shemeika and her team are quintessential professionals, while being compassionate, as they guide one through the unnecessarily complex process of purchasing a home. Shemeika was able to smooth out the process of having to deal with an unresponsive title company and we were able to go from offer to close in about 3 weeks! As a Bay area native, Shemeika has the intuition that is necessary to make home purchases which bring lifelong value. I have been through home purchases twice before in various areas of the Bay and during various periods, and this has, objectively, been the best experience with a realtor. I wholeheartedly recommend Shemeika and her team!

Fantastic experience: Our experience with Shemeika was exceptional. Not only did she have to jump through a number of additional hoops having to work with our relocation company, but we were living in on the East Coast for the duration of our home search and eventual purchase. She not only found us the perfect house that fit our very narrow criteria, but one that was within our budget and in a great neighborhood. I would highly recommend without reservation using Shemeika as your real estate agent. She is competent, responsive, knowledgeable and extremely pleasant to work with.

Fantastic experience: The Dream Team! Shemeika & her team were very personable & professional. I valued her honesty & integrity as our Realtor, especially since we are newbie home owners. It took only 1 month from the day we put in our offer to the day we were able to move in! Shemeika hustled & worked hard to close our deal fast. Along the way she introduce us to some amazing connections for when we decide to renovate & update our new home. Very appreciative of Shemeika & her team.

Fantastic experience: Shemeika is by far the only match for anyone looking to buy in Santa Cruz County. My fiancé and I started looking for a property in a market that was extremely tough and if it wasn't for Shemeika I'm not sure we would have ever been able to secure a house as amazing as ours. Through the countless offers, late night phone calls, and hours of house showing, Shemeika not only stayed professional but had also became a part of our family. She has an amazing team backing her up, your awesome Sarah, and made sure that no matter the question or problem, it was figured out immediately. I hope we don't have to look for another property anytime soon, but if we do I would only use Shemeika. Thank you again Shemeika (and Sarah) for a journey that would have not been the same without you. You are an extraordinary person and we will always keep you in our thoughts! Our lives have changed forever because of you!

Fantastic experience: Words can't begin to truly describe what an AMAZING realtor Shemeika is, and how hard she works for her clients!! We went hunting for our dream home in a market that was saturated and impossible to navigate, and her persistence and understanding of what it would take is how we made our dream come true. To be more specific, I'll highlight just a few of the reasons why she is so amazing. First of all, she is EXCEPTIONAL at communication - available when needed, responsive, and extremely knowledgable. Second of all, she is the queen of personal networking. She knows all of the other agents in the area and the greater location so well that she is a part of the fabric of the community, which puts her first at the perfect property for you. And last but not least, she's fiercely loyal to her clients and represents their best interests with a drive and professionalism that gets things done. Without exaggerating, when we told our children that we "got the house", my daughter's face fell and she said "I'm so excited, but does this mean we don't get to see Shemeika anymore? Mom, she's everything a realtor should be." We couldn't agree more!

Fantastic experience: Shemeika is always responsive and puts a lot of care into the home buying process. The whole thing can be overwhelming but Shemeika was very patient and thorough. It's very clear she loves and is so passionate about what she does while also showing great care for her clients. I have already recommended her to a friend who is looking to sell his home.

Fantastic experience: Shemeika has been keeping her eye open for us for available Santa Cruz commercial properties for a couple of years. She did an excellent job of defining our needs and researching the available Santa Cruz commercial real estate opportunities that would meet those needs. Because we are a manufacturer, it was essential to find a Santa Cruz commercial property that would support our operations in the community we joined. In addition, knowledge of the surrounding businesses was essential as well. Because of our unique business requirements, available Santa Cruz commercial properties that would support our manufacturing operations and provide us with a retail space was a huge challenge. With her tenacious perspective, great connections in the Santa Cruz community, superior business acumen, Shemeika was able to find us the perfect Santa Cruz commercial property. However, the service didn’t stop there. Her skill in negotiating the deal was tantamount to its success! Having Shemeika on our team enabled us to locate and secure the perfect Santa Cruz commercial real estate property to meet all of our business needs.

Fantastic experience: Great website. Very easy to maneuver

Fantastic experience: Shemeika is the kindest, most thoughtful, caring person. We stumbled upon her in an open house and fell more in love with her than the house. We knew right away she was the perfect fit for us. All throughout COVID she kept in touch with us, sent birthday gifts, and when we got the all clear, she jumped right back out there with us to see houses. In such a short time she knew more about what we wanted, than we did. She found our dream home and worked tirelessly right beside us to help us get it. Her passion for what she does and the people she represents is evident every time you talk to her. I couldn’t imagine doing this without Shemeika!!

Fantastic experience: We definitely made the right decision to work with Shemeika to purchase our first home in Santa Cruz. If you are looking for a real state professional who is knowledgeable, patient, responsiveness and enthusiastic, look no further. She truly cares. She was extremely diligent to make sure that we find a house that is perfect for our family. She was always there when we needed more information about a property. When we finally found a house that we really wanted to buy, she did everything to make sure our offer will be accepted. and she succeeded in getting our offer accepted. Purchasing a house can be quite stressful, but she made it extremely straight-forward by explaining every step carefully to us. I also want to point that she is very kind and caring! she stayed in touch with us after we purchased the home and helped us during some very difficult time.

Fantastic experience: We are so fortunate to have chosen Shemeika as our agent. We interviewed a few agents and Shemeika was personable, professional and clearly cared about providing a good service to her clients. She proved to be all those things and more! Shemeika was diligent in sending us listings as soon as they were available and responded quickly to questions and requests. When we found the home we wanted, she gave us excellent advice and honest feedback about how to best present our offer. We are thrilled with our new home and overall experience. Even after we completed our purchase, Shemeika has still been helpful, answering any questions we have, recommending services, etc. Thank You Shemeika!!

Fantastic experience: Shemeika was everything I hoped a realtor would be and more! She made the housing search stress free and fun, answered my multitude of questions throughout the buying process (or sought them out if she didn't know - I did have quite a few), was incredibly proactive, and added personal touches throughout the process which were extremely thoughtful and well received. I feel truly lucky that Shemeika guided me through my home purchase as she not only nailed the necessities (knowledge base, communication, attention to detail, negotiation skills), but also added to the experience to make me comfortable, confident and extremely happy. Thanks Shemeika!

Fantastic experience: "I had been searching the Santa Cruz area for several months when I finally clicked a button on Zillow that put me in touch with an agent, I did not know that clicking that button was going to lead to me meeting Shemeika. She called me as a result of that click and my first impression was a friendly, well-spoken, positive vibe, knowledgeable individual. We met at that initial house I had some interest in and based on my interactions with her I kept in contact. Shemeika listened to what I was looking for and was, therefore, able to send me listings in my parameters. She was also able to direct me to some things I had not considered because of her expert knowledge. When it was time to make an offer and get down to business in negotiations, Shemeika was spot on and took good care of me. "

Fantastic experience: Shemeika knows the SC market so well. She is very balanced in her approach (realistic for client needs, patient yet assertive), and very responsive). We felt great about where we landed, having the chance to see a range of options.

Fantastic experience: I have so much to say about this lady, it's hard to know where to start. Many years ago we were new to the California real estate market. To say we were fish out of water would be an understatement. Shemika kept us in line, focused, but still allowed us the space to choose a property that we could be happy in. The experience was truly amazing, we spent 5 years in that location and it served our needs extremely well, we were very happy indeed. Recently, my wife and I reset our goals for what we wanted to do with our lives. We wanted to grow our own food, expand our shop space, while creating a homestead we could share with others. Shemika stepped in, sold our old house, turned a nice profit, and brokered a deal on our new property that made sound financial sense. She is a Lioness, she adamantly defended our position, worked her tail off on endless details and challenges, and made this whole deal work. Long, difficult questions were never an issue, if she didn't have an answer right away, she ALWAYS knew an expert that could guide and educate us all. If you want someone to fight by your side, stay true to the end, and make your life a happier place, look no further, she is your knight in heels.

Fantastic experience: As first time sellers, we were very fortunate to have Shemeika as our agent. She not only advised us on preparing our house for sale, but answered the many questions we had. Throughout the process she was knowledgeable, hard working, patient and a delight to work with. We are so grateful for all her solid advice that meant the sale of our home was a success.

Fantastic experience: I had to sell my deceased mothers mobile home, which was located in Santa Cruz and I live in Washington State. I searched for a real estate agent for many months online and talked to a few other agents and got nervous and prolonged my decision to sell, as I just wasn't comfortable with them. I finally tried again and read some reviews on Shemeika and after talking to her realized she was the one. My husband and I met up with her and got everything set up and she communicated with us with everything long distance. I trusted her with everything. She is compassionate and works hard. I would use her again if I ever buy anything in that area.

Fantastic experience: Shemeika is an excellent, knowledgeable, helpful, and creative agent. She helped us buy our first home and we couldn’t be happier. She encouraged us to think out of the box allowing us to be open to all of the possibilities. We ended up with the property of our dreams that we never could of imagined having. I highly recommend Shemeika all your real estate needs. You won’t be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: If you’re looking for a community minded, knowledgeable agent Shemeika’s the one! She not only has an answer for all...my questions but is able to offer ideas and solutions as well. Add in the fact that her warmth and attentive demeanor is amazing! I always leave the conversation feeling comforted that all my needs will be met. In every occasion someone starts talking Real Estate my answer will forever be “Call Shemeika!”
