The best way to find top real estate agents in East Mesa, Santa Barbara, CA

“Let me start off by saying Justin was a great realtor. You can stop reading now or continue, but you won't go wrong having him as your realtor. I received a flyer from Justin at a house that I rented on a visit to Santa Barbara, where I'd been planning to move back to for years. I didn't know anything about him but things unfolded in a wonderful way. I called him soon after receiving his flyer and for what probably seemed like an eternity to him, I would contact him about properties and the market in general. Justin was kind, patient, professional, prompt, thorough, and I've probably left some great qualities out. Indeed, he missed at least two fairly major family events to facilitate my home buying process: I can't tell you how much I appreciate that. Justin was instrumental for me to look in a part of town that I'd never even heard of but now reside in and love. He went into a cat-infested house (more than a dozen) on the off chance that it would be suitable, but wasn't: sorry Justin. Since I was living a fair distance out of town, I wanted to make as few trips as possible and Justin made that happen. Justin made it possible for me to move back to a town that I've loved since the minute I landed here in a house that I love in a neighborhood that I love. You'd be lucky to have Justin as your realtor!”

“If you are looking to buy or sell a home in Santa Barbara, do yourself a favor and hire Carmen immediately. She is quite literally THE GOAT or real estate professionals. We threw a lot at her with a simultaneous buy and sell, which is stressful enough on its own, but Carmen handled it effortlessly. At one point during prep, she coordinated SEVEN different contractors at the new house on the exact same day to get us ready for move-in. Her local knowledge and marketing strategy were spot on, and we sold incredibly fast and for over asking. Our biggest advice to anyone hiring her is to just listen to her guidance on pricing and staging; she is the absolute expert and knows exactly what she is doing. And where she truly earned her GOAT status was during late-stage negotiations. When an unexpected lender issue cropped up at the last minute that would have caused other agents to panic, Carmen stepped in, took total control, and completely protected us. She is incredibly responsive, always a text away, and completely managed the emotional roller coaster of this move. She kept us grounded and minimized our stress from start to finish. We have already recommended her to everyone we know. Above all else, she is just wonderful to work with and makes you feel completely taken care of. We cannot recommend her highly enough!”

“We had the pleasure of working with Chris to purchase our first home, and we couldn’t have asked for a better realtor. As first-time homebuyers, we had a lot of questions throughout the process, and Chris was always quick to respond, providing clear and knowledgeable guidance every step of the way. Chris has a wealth of knowledge about the home buying process and remained patient, professional, and supportive from start to finish. We toured multiple homes, and even when a property wasn’t the right fit for us, Chris stayed optimistic and encouraged us to keep searching until we found the perfect home. His dedication, professionalism, and positive attitude made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and exciting. We are incredibly grateful for all of Chris’s hard work and highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.”

“Debra was absolutely amazing. It took two years to find our dream home in Santa Barbara. We started looking while still living in Chicago, so she would take our children (who live here) to showings and communicate with us about what she thought of the properties. When we moved here she continued to send us listings and showed us dozens more homes. She wrote up several offers on homes that we were outbid on and never once showed frustration that the process was taking so long. We got to know Debra very well during this process and consider her a friend. She cares more about finding you the right home over making a sale. You will not find a more knowledgeable, attentive and trustworthy realtor in Santa Barbara.”

“In March 2020, we were fortunate to meet Abel just before the world shut down due to the pandemic. Buying a home can be challenging at the best of times, but the pandemic presented a unique set of rules and obstacles to navigate. Despite our numerous questions and concerns, Abel was a reliable, knowledgeable, and supportive guide every step of the way. He remained patient and attentive, and we were never made to feel like an inconvenience. Abel's dedication and hard work are truly admirable, and even years later, we continue to rely on him as a valuable resource for advice and information. We are grateful for his unwavering commitment to his clients and would highly recommend him to anyone seeking a trustworthy and inspiring real estate agent.”

“Lee and Roylin treated me like family. Immediately, I could see that they had a high level of intelligence, experience, and expertise. They guided me past pitfalls and into the perfect purchase. The focus was never on the quick sale. The priority was to find my family a home that would be a comfort for years to come. Buying a home is complicated and there is so much that can go wrong. Having talented agents in whom I could really trust made all the difference.”

“I contacted Agent Pronto and Heidi Parkins responded to my call within 5 minutes. She was nothing but helpful, caring and just all around wonderful. She knows what has to be done and does it. I'm recently widowed and Heidi was an angel sent to me. I couldn't have done any of this without her. She is the best and will always have a place in my life. She is a go getter, very professional and very ambitious and will make things happen for you. I can't say how much I appreciate and love her. She was with me every step of the process from selling to purchasing, and is still there helping me even after the purchase of my house. Heidi Parkins is top-notch in her field. I'd recommend Heidi for any of your real estate needs. Thank you, Heidi, for everything you've done to help me. You are truly the best!”

“We really lucked out when we met Monica. She is a real pleasure to work with and we couldn't have had a better experience. We presented her with a difficult transaction and there was a lot of behind-the-scenes communicating and navigating that she spared us from. She knows the area extremely well, knows the residents, builders, etc., and is well-liked by all. Monica will be our first choice when we sell/purchase property.”

“This was my second time using Kristin as a realtor, and there is a reason that I came back. The first time was as a buyer's agent, this time selling. The team of Kristin and Amy sold my house during a pandemic. That should be enough said! We listed my property 3 days before the "first" California shut-down and therefore were unable to host a single traditional open house. Leave it to Kristin and Amy to start innovating! They were the first realtors in town to start advertising virtual open houses, and they made it clear that COVID was not going to slow them down. Very innovative, motivated, and friendly realtors. Highly recommend.”
