    We are long-time fans and first-time clients of Ivan Santacruz. We noticed his strong drive to succeed and attention to detail when he first arrived in the Tri-Valley market. He has since become a disruptor (in the best possible way) within the real estate industry. If you?ve ever been to an Ivan listing, you know what I mean?they are impeccable. We?ve had the wonderful opportunity to know Ivan both as the buyer and seller. When we saw a home we knew we wanted, we contacted him immediately. Together we were able to secure the winning offer and close in 28 days! While no home is ?perfect,? Ivan connected us with professionals that will hopefully make our new home perfect for us. He has an extensive network and knows someone in every specialty imaginable. As the seller, this is where you get to see firsthand why he?s #1. He has a vision for a home the moment he sees it and he has curated a truly incredible team that works like a well-oiled machine to make that vision come to life. Our home was so beautifully presented that we briefly questioned whether we should keep it lol. We received multiple offers well above asking immediately after the first open house! Ivan has indeed exceeded our expectations. Buying a new home and selling our old home simultaneously was no doubt stressful, but working with Ivan made the process significantly easier and remarkably seamless. You know when you meet someone and instantly recognize they?re passionate about what they do? Well, that?s Ivan and real estate. He can nerd out on the nuances of the market and is energized to present your home at its absolute best. Thank you Ivan for your hard work, your high standards, and your expertise. Our family is so very grateful for you and your phenomenal team.

    Ivan is fantastic. He works with you to create a winning strategy to sell your cherished property. The home was sold within a week. I would work with him again any time.

    We were careful who we picked, and we wanted a realtor who was experienced and had connections so we didnt need to find contractors to paint/stage, etc. Ivan is well known in our neighborhood, and once we met with him it was clear he could provide an effortless experience. We simply didnt have the time to coordinate the painting, landscape, etc., nor the market expertise to know what was best to prepare the house. His contractor team was professional, on time, clearly knew what they were doing, and reasonably priced. With this preparation, even in a really tough market this year, we got multiple offers after one showing. Thank you, Ivan!

    Ivan was thoughtful, detailed oriented and helped us closing our first home. He is one of best realtors out there. Easy to work with and always on top of things. We were lucky to have him.
