Being your trusted advisor is a privilege, that's why I do business in person— from start to finish.
I have bought and sold 8 different homes in the past 33 years, and this was by far the best experience. Sam was incredibly patient with me as I waited for the right time to “pull the trigger”, and he kept me informed and updated on market conditions for several months, never once pressuring me to do anything that wasn’t right for me. When the time came to sell, Sam gave me great advice for staging and had a comprehensive marketing plan in place that was way beyond anything I expected. His advice was spot on and and we sold the house for well over asking within a week with 7 offers. Sam did everything he promised and then some. He was always available and a complete professional. Sam had my best interests at mind from day one and the results were amazing. I’d give him 6 stars if I could.

Sam was an excellent representative for us as we sold our home in Aptos. Sam gave us information and guidance on listing date and price, but never pressured us and let us decide what we were comfortable with. We initially were unsure about selling during the holidays, but then listed late in October and by early December we had closed a deal and moved. Sam recommended we get our inspections and repairs done early, which turned out to be worth the effort as we ended up selling quickly and at full price. He always offered to help with any of the tasks before us, and I suspect he did a lot more behind the scenes than we realized as we were busy packing and planning our next step. He is easy to work with and conducts himself professionally and with integrity. I never had that he was representing our interests. I also respect him for promising not to represent the buyer and the seller on the same transaction.

I referred Sam to my Mom when she ready to sell her home in the Santa Cruz area. She interviewed 4 real estate agents and ended up selecting Sam. She had lived in the home for over 30 years, so getting the house ready for the sale ended up taking longer than expected, but Sam was patient with our family as we got the house ready. He marketed the home with a drone, walk-through video, virtual tour and custom website that really made the house stand out from the competition! We received an offer within the first week of having it on the market and he negotiated the numerous counteroffers until my Mom was comfortable with the final sales price. He also negotiated for my Mom to stay in the house for a few months after the close of escrow at no cost, which was a big help. Sam demonstrated a good understanding of the Santa Cruz real estate market, sophisticated marketing tools, and effective negotiation strategies that made us know we made the right choice in choosing him as our Realtor for the sale!

My husband and I found Sam through a referral. Our first meeting was great and we signed a listing agreement the second meeting. Our property was not conventional, he helped us focus on the most important items to prepare for sale. Compared to my Pre-Sale list we cut it 50% or around $20,000 by simplifying and focusing on clean up rather than a light remodel. We sold the property in 5 days after being on the market for full price. We would love to use him again and recommend him to anyone buying or selling residential real estate.

I would definitely recommend Sam if you are selling your home in the Santa Cruz area. They helped me sell my home on the Westside. He made the process easy and straight forward. Sam was great to work with and helped me with every step of the sale.
