ZillowVERIFIEDRay and Fiona are a power duo! They are veterans in the real estate industry, and have clearly cracked the code for navigating the competitive market here in the Bay Area. They had my wife and Is back every step of the way (literally) as first time home buyers aEUR" from searching for our dream home, sourcing the best mortgage interest rates, putting down an offer, negotiating prices, working out the contract, to closing the deal. What I really appreciate is how available they made themselves, especially in a fast-moving market where you need to act quick. They were super reliable and responsive whenever we had any urgent questions or concerns, which extended to holidays, weekends, and nights. The most admiral part is that they will continue to be there for you even after closing to make sure everything is smooth. That said, if youre looking for people who truly care and will lookout for your best interest then reach out to Ray and Fiona. They make amazing business partners and friends!

ZillowVERIFIEDRay is very patient. He understands our needs and willing to accommodate our request. For example, in the last few months I have a busy schedule with my secular work. He is willing to adjust or move around his appointments to accompany to see properties. This experience with Ray is a pleasant one. A good agent is important when buying a property. Ray is one of the best agents I have worked with. I will recommend my friends to contact him for any property needs.

ZillowVERIFIEDI decided to make a move because I wanted to upgrade my living environment and find a place that truly felt like home. When it came to choosing a realtor, the most important thing for me was trustaEUR"I needed someone I could rely on during such a big decision. I was introduced through a referral from a friend, and I'm so glad I followed their recommendation. What I appreciated most was how helpful and responsive you were throughout the entire process. Every question I had was answered quickly, and I always felt supported. If I could give one piece of advice to other buyers or sellers, it would be this: try to imagine yourself living in the home. If you can truly picture your life there, that's the home you want.

ZillowVERIFIEDRay is a great realtor. He will dig up any information he can find for home needs. He sold our place recently and every moment he was in touch with you. He took care of all the heavy lifting, with selling our condo and he made sure we were in the loop in every turn. He seems very young, but full of know and optimism. I would love to have Ray again as our realtor rep.

ZillowVERIFIEDI trust Ray 100#. He sold a house for my parents in San Jose & helped my parents buy 2 properties one in Fresno & the other one in Clovis. He goes out of his way to help you find the home that you're looking for and has a great personality.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe had an exceptional experience working with Ray and Fiona from Kinetic Real Estate in our search for our dream home in San Mateo. As our real estate agents, they demonstrated remarkable patience, in-depth knowledge of the local market, and strategic expertise that ultimately led us to success. Ray and Fiona's patience was truly commendable. They took the time to understand our needs and preferences, never rushing us or pushing us towards a decision we weren't comfortable with. Their approach made the entire home-buying process feel less stressful and more enjoyable. What really set Ray and Fiona apart was their extensive knowledge of the San Mateo real estate market. They provided valuable insights into different neighborhoods, property values, and market trends, which helped us make informed decisions throughout our search. Perhaps the most impressive aspect of their service was their strategic approach to securing our dream home. Ray and Fiona expertly guided us through crafting a preemptive offer strategy that ultimately proved successful. Their ability to think outside the box and leverage their experience in competitive markets gave us a significant advantage. Thanks to their guidance and expertise, we were able to purchase our ideal home in San Mateo. Ray and Fiona's commitment to our success, combined with their professional skills and local knowledge, made them invaluable partners in our home-buying journey. We wholeheartedly recommend Ray and Fiona to anyone looking for dedicated, knowledgeable, and strategic real estate agents in the Bay Area. They truly go above and beyond for their clients, and we couldn't be happier with the result of our collaboration.

ZillowVERIFIEDRay is a fantastic realtor. I was selling my house for the first time, and he guided me step by step through the selling process. As a Bay Area native, he was well aware of the surroundings and knew how much my house was worth. He is a calm and trustworthy realtor, and I appreciate all his hard work. We received multiple offers, and Ultimately, we closed on an offer. With Ray's time and dedication, we sold our house above the selling price!!! I will continue working with Ray for future purchases and highly recommend Ray as your agent!

ZillowVERIFIEDRay is an exceptional realtor who truly went above and beyond for us! His extensive knowledge of the Bay Area, from weather patterns to traffic, allowed him to find the perfect home that met all of our criteria. Not only did Ray identify homes that met all of our need-to-have's, but he also got us early and exclusive access to view off-market/unlisted properties. Ray's proactive approach, including confirming pet policies with the HOA president because he knows how much we care about our two dogs, ensured that no detail was overlooked. His meticulous attention to detail and commitment to answering all of our questions promptly and accurately instilled confidence throughout the buying process. Often, Ray would already have the answers to our questions and, in the rare cases that he didn't already know the answer, he would find out within the day if not within a couple hours. Not only did Ray help us present the best buyer offer possible, but he also helped us make connections with banks and brokers to secure the best rates. A true professional, Ray's friendly and non-pushy demeanor made the experience comfortable and seamless. His dedication to being available at all times, coupled with his extensive knowledge about each property, made him an invaluable asset in purchasing our first home. Thank you, Ray!

ZillowVERIFIEDRay was very hardworking and helpful from start to finish (from home search and even up to now). He is always available to answer inquiries. His extensive knowledge about the complicated house market didnt only convince us that now is right time to buy a house but also was our guiding light that we made the right decision to choose him as our realtor. I would proudly recommend him to first time and even seasoned home buyers. We look forward to working with him in the near future hopefully on our next home. Thanks to Ray we are finally now Home Owners.

ZillowVERIFIEDIf you?re looking for a fantastic realtor with your best interest at heart Ray is the one! Ray was both professional and knowledgeable and was able to provide a great first time home buying experience. Not only was the process less stressful than I anticipated, but Ray was always available to answer questions and concerns. Ray also made touring homes easier, being able to show us homes quickly so we didn?t miss out on our dream home. If you?re looking to buy a home as a first time homebuyer or just a buyer in general Ray receives my top recommendation. Thanks Ray!

ZillowVERIFIEDWeve been searching for a home in the bay area for about 5 months, and working with Ray had really made it easy on me and my partner. Ray is always responsive and always made the time to make any viewings possible for any homes that did not have an open house. Their system for alerting us of new listings was super helpful, as we would review these postings daily. Ray was able to answer a lot of of our questions related to the house purchasing/closing process, the general neighborhood landscape/community, and anything to do with the house inspections. Very personable and experienced, we had a great time working with Ray. He kept us going and motivated to keep searching for a home. In the end we did find a home we love, thanks to him and his colleague. I would recommend him and his team for any real estate needs!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe met Ray in late 2021 when the housing market was booming. We were on an extremely tight budget. He promised us then that he will get us a good home in the area we wanted. He kept his word. Kept showing houses after houses -- never gave up on us and when we finally found a place we liked, he made sure he got us a deal which worked extremely well in our favor. He is a very good communicator. When we were in negotiations for the house, he made sure that we understood what their counter offer meant and also gave his advice on what should be done. He is a rare gem! Would highly recommend working with him

ZillowVERIFIEDRay was referred to me by another real estate agent. We were looking for a second home in Daly City for my elderly uncle and he has a lot of requirements and technical questions. Ray has managed to make him feel at ease and accommodate his many demands and scheduling. He felt very confident and at ease with Ray immediately. He is very knowledgeable and looked out for my uncle?s best interest. We highly recommend Ray to our friends and family looking in the Bay Area!

ZillowVERIFIEDOverall, my experience with Ray as a real estate professional has been very positive. Ray is calm, trustworthy, and very dedicated to his work. He is very knowledgable in real estate, and always has an answer for any questions that I have about the home buying process, properties that he is showing, and current markets. As a Bay Area native, Ray has first-hand knowledge of different neighborhoods and what different places have to offer. I absolutely trust him to give me honest, realistic insights about the financial commitments of buying and financing a home. I would definitely look to Ray for honest answers and a helping hand if you are looking to buy or sell a home in the current market.

ZillowVERIFIEDWorking with Ray was such a positive experience. He was knowledgeable about the locations I was interested in and he made sure I purchased my dream home. He would go out of his way to send me homes that he knew I would be interested in and set up every appointment, making it extremely easy for me. During the escrow process, he stayed on top of all deadlines and made sure I had everything I needed for a smooth and easy process. He was readily available to answer any questions I had and served as a great middle man between me and the seller. Thank you for making this all happen Ray! On to the next one.

Review for Member: Ray Guardado
ZillowVERIFIEDOverall my family?s experience with Kinetic Real Estate has been fantastic. They work as a team and it shows. Ray and Leo worked with my family to help find a house that was fitting for their situation. Ray went above and beyond in helping my family find a home that was fitting. Finding a home proved trickier than expected not only because of the hot housing market, but also because we had to find sellers that were willing to work with 100% financing. This however did not phase Kinetic Real Estate. Ray went above and beyond to make sure my family had their best chance at buying a home. He made himself available pretty much at any time. He made it seem like we were his only clients (I am sure he has many). No matter what questions we threw his way he found an answer. He encouraged us to keep our heads held high when being outbid by other buyers, ?on to the next one? he?d say. Ray made sure we knew all the facts about a home and the reality that offers had to be made, but never pressured us into making one. He negotiated and communicated with listing agents. He was transparent with us through the entire process. Once we found a home he continued to be there. He?d check in to make sure there were no additional questions or concerns and kept us updated on the behind the scenes progress. I would most definitely recommend Ray. He is professional, down to earth and very knowledgeable in his field.

ZillowVERIFIEDRay Guardado was an excellent agent and I would highly recommend him. I recently was looking for a home to buy in the Bay Area and was quite nervous with the whole process. Ray thoroughly explained each step along the way in such easy to understand terms that I fully comprehended each step from looking at potential homes through the home buying process. Ray was patient and tremendously proactive in researching areas where I could afford to buy a home. His ability to crunch numbers and answer all my questions, and I had a lot, was extremely helpful. He was always composed and extremely personable. Ray cared and that made a huge difference. Ray wanted to make sure I found the perfect home and his dedication and knowledge were very impressive.
