ZillowVERIFIEDBret did an amazing job helping my siblings and me prepare and sell our parents' property after they passed away. We had a complex situation to navigate, and Bret guided us with kindness, compassion, intelligence, and expertise. He made himself available to meet on a variety of platforms (in person, video call, phone), was incredibly responsive and collaborative, and was absolutely professional and supportive when sensitive issues arose. My siblings and I frequently requested his help with creating our "to do" list and how to prioritize the items on the list; we could not have done this without his valuable input. Bret understands our local systems, expertly utilizes the supports available through Bailey Properties, and is well-connected in our community. He went above and beyond to help our family, and he treated our property with the respect and love a legacy property should be treated. He put in countless hours and diligently did the necessary research to prepare for the sale, always with the goal of setting a listing price that would be fair for us, the sellers, and potential buyers. Once we listed, he did a beautiful job meeting with potential buyers and agents, and negotiating the sales price and terms. Everything worked out better than any of us had dreamed possible. I wholeheartedly recommend Bret as your expert to help you buy or sell property!
ZillowVERIFIEDBret went above and beyond on my home listing. He was very communicative, proactive, and available through the whole process--from the sale prep through the end of escrow. He is honest, trustworthy, smart, and gave me great advice throughout. I could't be happier with how it turned out. Bret is the best!
ZillowVERIFIEDBret was terrific. He has high integrity and was personable. We were so glad he represented us. Bret was thorough, knowledgeable, strategic, hard-working and detail oriented. He walked us through each step of the process of selling our second home and kept us on track. We would definitely use Bret in the future!!
ZillowVERIFIEDBret was always available at short notice to help make this purchase happen. He had contacts ready for all the extenuating details like insurance and building professionals. His knowledge of the Aptos area is second to none, and he was also really personable with support through the stresses and periods of doubt that can arise in a purchase of a home where you have so much on the line.

ZillowVERIFIEDI was getting a divorce during my home search and didnt know which town to move to. Bret has an excellent command of the entire Santa Cruz County and showed me properties in various towns. This was my first solo home purchase, so I needed a lot of guidance. Bret was kind, patient, and clear about all the steps of the process. And the best part of all was that Bret took the initiative to explore availability of some new townhouses under construction. He was able to put my name on the waiting list, and I got the house! He saved the day. I hold Bret in the highest regard and recommend him 100%!
ZillowVERIFIEDI couldnt be more pleased with Bret! I accepted a job in another state, had to sell my house and find a new place to live. Very stressful! Bret priced my house perfectly, organized and timed everything expertly, and communicated and explained everything so well along the way. The entire process went seamlessly. If you want a professional, honest, no-nonsense, friendly and knowledgeable realtor, Bret is your guy! He is such a pleasure to work with.
ZillowVERIFIEDHe got the house ready for market quickly. He is a great communicator, always responds to texts and emails almost immediately . We are looking for a house to buy in another area and I wish we could find another Bret!
ZillowVERIFIEDMy husband and I were recently looking for our first home together. We were living over an hour away which can get stressful. Bret made finding our perfect home so much easier. He was available when we needed him and was always friendly and patient. We are so grateful that he helped us relocate and buy our first home with ease.
