“I am a first time homebuyer. I am a single woman that was very scared to take this leap and buy a house alone. Chris was ALWAYS available for all of my questions. I could talk to him in the evenings, mornings, and even on weekends. Whenever I wanted to see a property, Chris MADE IT HAPPEN! He took the time to walk me through complicated documents at my pace. Chris is very experienced and good at negotiations. He was able to get 2 major repairs done at the property at the Seller's expence!”

“At our first meeting Gautam had an accurate understanding of my neighborhood and it's surroundings. After walking through the house and the yards he gave a clear assessment of our home's value and the reasons why. He also had an idea of what types of buyers would likely show interest, and how to market our home to them. He had an excellent advertising package in mind. One day after being on the market we received a full-price offer. It fell through, but in line were two more full-price offers. The second potential buyer became the buyer. There were three issues with the property that arose and he handled them all. That was especially helpful as we were already out-of-state. The house sold without further issues. Gotham was easy to work with, and his expertise gave me confidence that things would be well-handled. I recommend Gautam highly, and would recommend him to family and friends.”

“She's very knowledgeable and she's the pro. She made a good deal with the property that I got. She was able to get a sellers credit that covered my closing cost. The amount is more than the closing cost itself. Ate Adora will guide you and explain all the details. She's also always available to answer your questions and is there when you need help. I highly recommend her. I'm grateful that I get to know her.”

“We first met Deanne Gutierrez over 10 years ago when responding to an ad on a house in Lake of the Pines in the newspaper. It took us 8 months to find our perfect house & Deanne stuck with us and never gave up finding us our house!! Plus on that first day when my husband and I hopped into her car for our tour of Lake of the Pines, I knew we were going to be really good friends! ❤️ We did not even consider using anyone other Deanne Gutierrez when we needed to sell my moms house in Roseville! We would use her again and again!”

Payal took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for and provided thoughtful guidance and expertise throughout the search, negotiations, and final closing. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care truly set her apart. I couldn’t have asked for a better agent and would confidently recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.”

“We were able to get the house we wanted within our budget, all thanks to Pillar Tobias. She was really helpful in trying multiple ways to get our loan approved. It was a bit rough because we had a lot of issues but her dedication and persistence made us pull through. Thank you so much for all your efforts, and for not giving up even when we already did.”

“Mr. Holland was very goal oriented and practical. He allowed us to choose amongst three plans and provided some of the best crews to complete that plan. He wasn't a hands-off agent but actually got his hands dirty to help out. It shows he enjoys what he does and gives his best. Anyone who works with him would not be disappointed. Thrilled he took us on.”

“I recently had the pleasure of working with Nick to purchase my first home, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From start to finish, Nick was incredibly professional and knowledgeable, guiding me through every step of the process with expertise and patience. What really stood out was Nick's ability to explain complex concepts in a way that was easy to understand. He provided me with valuable resources and connected me with individuals who helped streamline the purchase process. Thanks to his efforts, what could have been a daunting experience was actually a breeze. I highly recommend Nick to anyone in search of a dedicated, personable, and professional real estate agent. His expertise and support made buying my first home a smooth and enjoyable journey.”
