He was extremely thorough, professional, knowledgeable, and friendly.  I couldn't be more satisfied.  If I could give him more than 5 stars, I  would!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I inherently view most real estate agents and brokers with skepticism, thinking they’re working more in their own best interest than in mine. But I’ve learned to feel quite the opposite about Tomas.

My wife and I have done several (I think eight) real estate transactions through him over the years. More than once he’s offered recommendations or made good suggestions that were clearly not in his own best interest. I find that quite refreshing and a big relief.

And on top of that, he really does his homework beyond just the transaction itself, from return on investment calculations to lending/mortgage guidance to insightful valuations, and everything in between.

Tomas was so patient and informative throughout the entire process, answered every single one of our questions in a timely and professional manner. Tomas and his team were so helpful as we navigated the multi-step process of buying a home. I would recommend Tomas in a heartbeat due to his deep knowledge in the north state and the connections he has built with mortgage companies, inspectors, and everyone else. Thank you, Tomas, for being such a crucial part of our home buying process!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend working with Tomas to find your best options.  Tomas is most helpful and knowledgeable with properties in the Northstate.  We was very patient with me in looking at many properties. I was interested in one particular area of Shasta County and when that didn't work out as hoped, he was amazing at finding the perfect alternative . I am very happy with where I have purchased. Thank you Tomas.
