Tony and team were always thinking two or three steps ahead to head off any potential issues before they arose.

My husband Edgar and I began looking for a home early 2021 with a different real estate agent, and we were getting nowhere. A friend connected us with Tony early November and wow we are beyond thankful for him doing so.Tony and his team are simply put, rockstars!! Thanks to them we made our dream of owning a home in the OC a reality. Within the first call Tony exceeded our expectations. His professionalism, knowledge, responsiveness and genuine care for us made this experience exactly what we dreamt it would be. Within a month of our first call we have a new home!!

This review is well deserved and we cannot recommend working with Darryl Valdez enough. We met Darryl through friends who had already purchased several properties with him. From our first consultation, we knew he would be a good fit because of how intently he listened to our needs and wants. He was diligent with his research of potential properties and encouraged us to do the same. He also attended EVERY open house and scheduled showing with us. Darryl saw the listing for our new house before we did and prepared the data about the suggested purchase price point. When we submitted our offer he was

My fiancé and I began the homebuying process in late August/early September of this year and Darryl Valdez was our agent. We finally got the keys to our new home last Friday (9/24/21). Darryl was always available to take our calls and answer our questions, speak with us after we saw a property (sometimes our conversations ran an hour or more), and he was very knowledgeable throughout the process. This was our first home purchase, and even in the beginning there were some hurdles that we, the buyers, needed to hop over. On our behalf, Darryl was able to speak to the sellers and establish reassurance

I worked with Darryl to purchase our first home and I could not have had a better experience. From our first meeting where he explained the entire home buying process and asked us some insightful questions to pinpoint our perfect home to making sure we had sent out our best offers each and every time, Darryl was there every step of the way.
He helped connect us to great financing, escrow, and inspection partners who all share the same values and sense of urgency to make sure everything happened on (or before) schedule and made our closing extremely quick and smooth.

Chris, Tony, and Rob are the dream team! They were very helpful and informative on the crazy market right now and answered all our questions. They got us in the houses we wanted to tour and were very patient with our journey of finding our dream home. When we found "THE ONE" we toured and were able to put an offer in the same day. Tony worked his magic and secured our contract quickly! We worked with Rob at Dapper Capital and just closed escrow last week!! These guys truly go above and beyond and recommend them to anyone looking to buy! Thanks guys!!

Normally I wouldn't write a review after my partner already did, but I felt the need to because Tony and his team (Chris!) did an amazing job getting us our most recent purchase. From the time we reached out, we hit the ground running and after only a few home tours, we put in an offer and got it accepted on the first attempt. We got it at almost $20k under asking in the neighborhood we wanted and within our budget. This is a blessing to us after the difficult year we have had as a family and a light at the end of a tunnel. Tony is trustworthy, quick witted, and really listens to what you

Thanks Tony and Chris for making our home buying experience so seamless. They took the time to understand our needs and wanted to find us a home that meets those needs. Chris was very patient with us, driving from house to house over several weekends. And that was in the blazing summer heat too!
Once we found a house that we wanted to put an offer on, Tony was very determined to make the deal work out. He reached out countless times on a Friday evening to the selling agent to get our offer accepted. With his help, we were able to submit an offer below asking that was accepted without a counter

If you want a real estate professional who is going to do everything and anything for your best interest, look no further. Tony and his team went above and beyond to secure our dream home in this crazy and unpredictable housing market (he likes to call it ONE AND DONE - one house, one offer, done deal). He isn't just a real estate agent; he tries to get to know you on a personal level, he studies diligently on the market and the neighborhood, he offers excellent advice (and goes into great detail and take his time), he works on your pace, and ultimately, he gets the job done!

As a first time home buyer, I always thought buying a house was a long, boring, and complicated process. I knew the importance of meeting the right broker/agent is crucial when it comes to buying my own house because I heard so many bad stories from my friends and family about their horrible experience with their agents. I was fortunate to meet Tony who was not just friendly but also professional as he's knowledgeable about real estate field. He was kind enough to explain the whole process of buying the house in details and when it comes to questions, my answers were answered with no hesitations

Our experience with josh and elevated estates has been nothing but exceptional. We purchased our first home on the very first offer and truly believe it all happened with the professionalism, persistence and prompt actions of Josh. He has great communication skills, as we knew what was happening throughout the entire process. Whenever we would ask questions, he was quick to respond and when he didn't know an answer, he would go out of his way to find out and got back to us right away!

Anthony had the best attitude throughout the process as well as extremely responsive and transparent. He really did his research on every house we would send him and let us know if it would be worth going to look at or not as well as worth putting in an offer. He helped answer any and all our questions and clarified any confusion or verbiage we didn't understand. In the end we were able to put in an offer and close escrow in a timely manner with very little stress because of his guidance. We will definitely use him in the future and recommend him!

We looooove Darryl for helping us get into our home. In a competitive real estate market, Darryl was able to deliver and exceeded expectations by a long shot. We were often left on read by another real estate agency and weren't able to get a tour for places, which is incredibly important when the market is like this. Darryl was able to score tours on a lot of different places, some with even less than 12 hours notice. We weren't expecting that at all and truly appreciate all that he did to help us out.

I first reached out to Tony over 5 years ago looking for a simple rental. I couldn't believe how much he and his team hustled to find the perfect place for me and my roommates... it was "just" a rental! Of course whenever I did need a rental, I sought out Elevate Estates and was still surprised at the amount of work they put into their renting clients. Over the years, Tony continued to keep in touch and continued to fostered a client/agent relationship by personally checking in, and even invited me out to client appreciation events.

Tony and Chris are part of a wonderful team that truly set them apart from other realtor agents. They are both knowledgeable and understanding and really spend the time to get to know the buyer's financial situation and wants. They lay out the fundamentals of purchasing property and are with you every step of the way. They are more than ready to show you lots of properties that fit your criteria and constantly keep you 'in the loop'. The biggest strength, however, is the speed at which they operate. They aren't adverse to constant texting after working hours and will make
