We highly recommend working with Aaron to sell your home. We met with other agents before choosing him, and by that point we had a good idea of what our priorities were aEUR" it quickly became clear he would be the best fit. He is kind, confident, and very knowledgeable about the Inland Empire. He gave us the freedom to make our own decisions while always providing clear advice and information based on his expertise. Aaron helped us prioritize which areas of the house would be most worth repairing or sprucing up, and hes built a trustworthy, cost-effective group of contractors, which took a lot of time and stress off our plates. He was also really attentive to prospective buyers and stayed in frequent communication with the buyers agent, which gave us confidence the sale would go through without a hitch. He even wowed us by getting an above-asking-price offer despite a tough market. Were so grateful to Aaron for making the sale of our home smooth and quick.

Aaron Stel was referred to me by a mutual friend. He was immediately tuned in to our wants and needs and was prepared with a detailed proposal showing the strengths and weaknesses of the property and included a suggested asking price with market research to back it up. He offered advice when asked and accepted specific requests when made. He offered resources to address all modifications/repairs. He communicated well and remained in the know at all times through the process. Bottom line is that the home sold in 4 days at $40k over his suggested asking price which raised the comps in that area. That did not happen by accident but he made it look easy.

Brian is a great realtor and person. He made buying a home easy and fun! Cant say enough. As a family of 4 we had a lot of demands and he met the challenge. From start to finish was 60 days, from looking at properties to closing the deal.

Working with Aaron Stel on my Rancho Cucamonga home purchase was an absolute game-changer. He stood out big time compared with other agents. For starters, he knows everything there is to know about the local real estate? from whats on the market now, all of the local agents, who all had great things to say about him, to sneak peeks of whats coming up and properties that werent listed yet. And it seems like hes on great terms with all the local agents too, which meant a lot. Connecting with Aaron was easy and he made a headached of a process seem effortless. Hes got this way of making things happen thats just... fast. Really fast. Showed interest in a place? Boom, hes on it, clearing schedules, getting us into escrow faster than Ive ever seen. And the video he sent over breaking down my offer and other important docs? Genius. It saved us both a ton of time, cutting out endless calls and meetings or text conversations. We kept it straightforward and effective, and he delivered exactly what he promised, faster than Ive seen anyone do it. When things got a bit tricky, Aaron handled it well; not his first rodeo for sure. As soon as we started the escrow process, I got quick intros to everyone involved, with each person jumping in with friendly calls and clear breakdowns of what they were handling. It was like flipping a switch, and suddenly I had this amazing team all geared up and working for me. Aaron is super easy to work with, knows his stuff, and has definitely earned his stripes in the Inland Empire. And yes, the cowboy hat? Its as cool as he is ?? Im already looking forward to the next deal. In the mean time Im telling everyone I know theyve gotta check him out if theyre buying or selling around here. There IS a better way. Aaron is it.

First time home owner, and I am so glad I purchased with Aaron and his team at Stellar! Right from the beginning, Aaron and his staff were resourceful, attentive, and informative. They did all the heavy lifting for us and made this process as stressless and seamless as possible. From coordinating listing viewings, to communicating with seller agents, HOAs, to explaining and completing paperwork, negotiating, etc, Aaron held our hand the entire way. He was always a text or phone call away and somehow with his busy schedule gave us his full attention. Cant express my gratitude and appreciation for Aaron enough and would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone looking to find their next home.

Aaron Stel represented us as both sellers and buyers and was fantastic to work with from start to finish. He?s professional, communicative and always makes himself available to his clients. As sellers, we received multiple strong offers on our home after only a weekend on the market and ultimately accepted an offer well over asking price. He was able to keep the deal alive for nearly four months until we were able to close escrow on our dream home! As buyers, he helped ensure our offer was accepted among several others during this competitive market. In what ended up becoming a very complicated sale with unusual circumstances that led to a lengthy escrow, he was able to negotiate a price reduction mid-escrow (highly unusual in this market) and help keep our lending rate locked by communicating directly with the lender - all while keeping our buyer?s agent informed along the way and negotiating to not lose our sale! We are now living in our dream home and could not thank Aaron more for everything he?s done!
