Jim was such a pleasure to work with! Not only is he hard working, experienced and knowledgeable about real estate, but he is very competent, clear, articulate, and driven. These attributes alone make him the perfect salesman, but he is also a kind, persevering, sincere, dignified human being with integrity. There are endless complimentary adjectives to use to describe him!

Lisa was outstanding in her service and dedication in finding appropriate replacement properties for my exchanges. I recommend her as a very capable real estate agent. She is also there when there are problems with the properties and always willing to help . I've depended on her many times as she has always been there for me. She is extremely professional and knowledgeable. She's also a fun person to review properties with.

From our very first home to our current one, Jim has led us to exactly what we wanted. And he did it with the utmost grace and professionalism. I couldn't recommend him more highly for people who take comfort and pride in the house that becomes their home.

We really enjoyed working with Vanessa on our recent home purchase. It took us about a year and half to find our perfect home and throughout the entire process Vanessa always listened to what we wanted and would update our searches accordingly. She always remained patient with us and was quick to respond to any of our requests or questions. Once we found our home, she really made us feel like her priority was making sure that escrow was as seamless as possible. She worked hard to make sure that we had everything we need and was able to negotiate the terms we wanted. Throughout the entire process she was nothing but pleasant and professional. We would highly recommend Vanessa for any of your real estate needs, she is one of a kind and there aren't many like her in the business.

Chad has been professional, personable, knowledgeable, conscientious, incredibly hard-working, capable, and sensitive in every aspect of my dealings with him. I have bought and sold a fair number of homes, but no transactions have ever gone as quickly or smoothly. I had my heart set on one specific neighborhood, and Chad contacted me the moment any houses in that area were about to hit the market. After I got in, we put my house up for sale, and within days we had multiple offers over asking. Only someone with Chad's drive and passion for the industry could pull that off.

My wife and I have known Dusty for many years. To date we have completed two high end transactions. The first was locating a large parcel of land to build our dream home. After months of searching he came up with just the perfect parcel in south Orange County. It took two years to construct but we ended up with a 13,000 SF + estate, pool, six car garage and tennis court on approximately 4 acres.
The most recent sale was in Newport Beach’s, Harbor Ridge. We bought a 12,0000 SF estate with 20 car garage, pool, koi pond and panoramic ocean and city lights views. Without Dusty’s hard work and persistence we may never have acquired these incredible properties.

I can't say enough good things about Dawna! She has helped us twice through what can be a very brutal and discouraging quest to find affordable housing in Southern California. She always listens to our concerns and gets back to us, provides us with resources for our questions, and gives us sound advice based off of her many years of realty experience with these markets. I am not someone who cries often... I jumped for happiness when we got our first condo with her help. When I thought we were priced out and could never afford a house with a backyard for our young son, Dawna came through again and helped us make our dream home a reality... this time I cried tears of joy and disbelief!
Dawna builds relationships with her clients and it's clear to me through her hard work that she find purpose in navigating people expertly through this process. I have been through two previous indifferent realtors before finding Dawna. She is our REALTOR

"Some people say selling a home is the most stressful thing you will do. It wasn't. Communication is the key, and Don is a master at that. Every time I had a question about the process, or didn't understand the rules, Donald made it simple with an easy explanation. He guided me through the concept of marketing my home, getting over one hundred people to come see my property netting me with five offers in a housing market that some claimed was slowing. It didn't slow for us. I trusted his knowledge about real estate. I admire his work ethic. He totally understood my situation and showed empathy where it was needed. And I would definitely work with him again."

Our realtor, Justin, was absolutely fantastic in every way.
As first-time homebuyers, he made us feel comfortable in unfamiliar situations and never made us feel like a burden, despite our frequent questions. He was always upfront with us and very clearly had our best interests at heart at all times.
Despite a shortage of available houses, Justin was always optimistic and assured us he would find us the perfect home. And, within a couple of short weeks, he was right. His expertise was invaluable, and we would not have succeeded without him. We would recommend him to anyone who is looking to buy a home.

"If you are looking for a realtor to help you sell your home, I highly recommend Andre Saffarnia. We hired Andre to sell our home in Glassell Park. It was not an easy sell, he was outstanding. Our home was previously listed with 2 local realtors and was on the market for over 400 days yet Andre and his team manage to get us multiple offers and sold our property successfully in less than 60 days!
We spoke with Andre and then met with him at our home. He spent hours answering our questions... Andre made the process incredibly easy and took extra steps many other Realtors don't (but should) he exceeded our expectations by far.
When we saw our listing we were blown away. His hard work and knowledge of what it takes to sell a home really paid off - our listing looked amazing and knocked out the competition. We received multiple offers and Our house went into a contract which was outstanding for that market and being previously on the market for over 400 days!
I've recommended Andre Saffarnia and his amazing Team to everyone I know. He's a true professional, hard working and a genuinely nice guy.

Excellent service, too often elusive amidst our rush culture and increasingly impersonal interactions, offers a wonderfully refreshing and comforting surprise when in comes along. Kara Welliver provided just that type of hands on, personalized service, especially appreciated during the stressful and emotional challenges of selling a cherished home and finding another.
Our longtime realtor, “stuck” in New Zealand due to the Covid crisis, recommended Kara. We are so glad she did. Kara remained well informed and resourceful, insanely accessible, communicative, and professional throughout our transition from Long Beach to Solvang. And when our emotions got the best of us, she calmed our nerves with her experienced and thoughtful insights. Her network of professionals provided exceptional service as well, so vital to smooth and accurate real estate transactions. Kara bakes a tasty cookie, too, and we made a friend in the process! What could be better?
We wholeheartedly recommend Kara’s excellent and caring services – five stars, without question.

I am a Real Estate Broker and an Attorney. I have worked in various aspects of the Real Estate business for over 50 years. Needless to say, I can appreciate Terrific Real Estate people when I work with them. Dianna is one of the exceptional handful of people that you have the good fortune of working with, once in a lifetime. We met her at an open house and she took our information and requirements. She kept us in mind, and when she heard a property was going to be placed on the market, she contacted us. It was just what we wanted; and, we started to negotiate to buy it before it was listed. In spite of Dianna’s efforts, the seller elected to list it. But Dianna persevered and she carefully guided us through the process, and through her efforts, the seller accepted our offer. BUT, that is where Dianna’s efforts on our behalf really began. She got us the best inspection team we could ask for and they identified items that needed to be dealt with. Even though we were in a tight seller’s market she negotiated concessions on our behalf that were fair and did not upset the seller. After we closed, Dianna referred us to some really amazing contractors/repair people who did exceptional work in converting the property into what we had envisioned. She was patient, kind, and professional all the way. We consider her one of our new friends. She is, without doubt, a true professional, who loves her work and her clients. Nuff said!!!!!!
