“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.”

“We are completey satisfied with Jim Tierney. We are so impressed by his integrity, honesty, and professionalism. With his years of experience, his advice and expertise were invaluable. We had the challenge of living out of the area during the sale. Jim was excellent with communication. The sale process was smooth and low stress with Jim guiding us through it. He was able to advise us in exactly what was needed to prepare the house for sale. His marketing strategy was excellent, resulting in the sale of the house in a little over 2 weeks at a good price with multiple offers. We give Jim our highest recommendation!”

“Working with Payal Kir was an outstanding experience from start to finish. She was there for every step of the home-buying journey—always accessible, highly knowledgeable, and deeply committed to making the process smooth and successful. 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.”

“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.”

“We felt Paul Kaplan Group appeals to people who are interested in mid-century design, and would attract those people to our property. Stephanie was given high praise by some friends of ours who had recently bought and sold property with her. Stephanie was terrific, very proactive in keeping us informed every step of the way, always very responsive to any questions we had. We are extremely pleased with the results she got for us! I wish we could give her a higher rating than excellent, she really exceeded expectations in all the categories above.”

Westside rewards daily life with ocean air, cliffside sunsets, and a creative streak that shows up everywhere—from surfboards and bikes along West Cliff Drive to the tasting rooms tucked into former cannery buildings. Locals wander to Natural Bridges State Beach for tide pools and autumn monarchs, then cut inland to the wildflower-lined trails of Moore Creek Preserve. When the swell is right, Steamer Lane and the tiny Santa Cruz Surfing Museum hum with energy near the lighthouse, while Swift Street Courtyard buzzes with breweries, distilleries, and roasteries that keep weekends lively. Downtown Santa Cruz is minutes away, as are laid-back stretches of sand in Seabright and the postcard-perfect esplanade of Capitola.

Families appreciate well-regarded schools, including Westlake Elementary, with Mission Hill Middle and Santa Cruz High serving many Westside students. The University of California, Santa Cruz brings lectures, arts, and redwood-framed trails within easy reach, adding a steady current of culture and innovation. Saturday routines often include the Westside Farmers Market for produce, flowers, and local makers, while commuters value straightforward access to Mission Street and Highway 1, plus excellent bike routes along the coast.

Whether you’re eyeing a surf-friendly bungalow, a townhouse near campus, or a hilltop home with Monterey Bay views, Westside offers an easygoing blend of nature, food, and community. When you’re ready to explore your options, Agent Pronto helps both buyers and sellers find a trusted local real estate agent.
