ReviewRob was great to work with. It was an unconventional purchase, but Rob had the experience & knowledge to make the buying process smooth as possible. We will be using Rob for our next purchase in that market.

ReviewRob was incredibly easy to work with and had great advice in all aspects of the process. He was quick to respond to my inquiries and helped me understand the big picture and the details. Rob also had a lot of knowledge about the local market, which helped me feel at ease with such a big decision. I would highly recommend him, especially for a first time home buyer!

ReviewRob made what could have been a stressful home purchase for me into a relatively pain-free one. 1) I initially chose Rob as my agent because of his knowledge of the area. As I am not local to Arcata, I had to rely on my agent to understand the real estate market and neighborhoods in that area. Not only did he have a wealth of information on the homes for sale in that area, he also gave me information on homes that were recently sold, and why they were sold for $xxx amount. He seemed to have memorized all the facts, inspection reports, and sales history of all the houses on the market! 2) Robs communication was excellent. He responded to all of my texts and emails promptly. If he was with another client or in a meeting, he would text me right away just to let me know that he would call me as soon as he was free. He even responded promptly when he was out of the country on vacation and in a different time zone! He also would regularly give me status of where we were at with the closing process - something that my lender was incapable of doing. 3) The best part about working with Rob is I felt like I was working with a friend and not a real estate agent. I would definitely recommend Rob to anyone looking for a home in Humboldt County!

ReviewRob was very helpful in finding a house in the price range I was looking for and the people necessary to get the house inspected and getting the seller to drop the price for the house.

ReviewRob! The right man for the Job! What a monumental task to be able to match a home in the beautiful and quirky Humboldt county. He knows the ins and outs of all the areas. Climate patterns. Personality of the neighborhoods. History of the homes and the market. He?s got an intuitive finger on the pulse of the market. He will calmly observe and let you check out the home and formulate your own opinion. And when it?s time to weigh the pros and cons he?ll play devils advocate on those points, which helps you feel out if it?s a correct fit. Hes also very good at spotting quality construction as well as home features that may be problematic down the road. He has clearly been observing the market closely. I was working with him while watching the houses come and go. His predictions for which houses were going to sell quickly, and for around what price were impressively accurate.

ReviewRob is very friendly, professional, and knowledgable. We were first time home buyers. We had a lot of questions that Rob went above and beyond to answer. He has a great local network and was able to get us all the help and services we needed for inspecting the home, purchasing the home and getting started on renovations. He knew a lot about the different neighborhoods and really helped us find what location would work best. His guidance on the house we picked was very helpful and he was able to help us negotatiate a lower price, and no closing costs.

ReviewWe have thoroughly enjoyed working with Rob to help us find our home. As first time homebuyers, I was pretty anxious about the whole process. I felt that Rob was informative, and determined to help get us into a house that we would love at a great price. Rob was communicative, patient, and accommodating to our schedules as we were not living in Humboldt at the time of our search. He was quick to pick up on the type of quirk and charm I was looking for in a house; and always went the extra mile even on a long shot offer. I would absolutely recommend Rob to anyone!

ReviewRob was amazing through the entire process. We were buying a house from 800 miles away so much had to be done via video, phone and txt. Rob was always available, honest and is the reason the process was successful.

ReviewRob was great to deal with. He always responded promptly; he was informative and helpful. He helped us through challenges with patience and humor. He coordinated and communicated with 3 family members, two of us out of town. Rob showed know about Humboldt real-estate and construction. He helped us evaluate homes we looked at, often pointing out issues we would have missed. He explained the process clearly all the way to the closing. He connected us with a mortgage broker, contacted inspectors and contractors who were prompt and efficient ,and helped us understand the results. It was a pleasure working with Rob, and I would strongly recommend him.

ReviewSomewhere in my youth or childhood, I mustve done something good to have been paired with Rob. This exceptional Guardian Realtors local knowledge is very impressive, as is his mastery of the home buying process. His should be the standard for all realtors as it alleviated a great deal of anxiety for me midst a summer sellers market. Hes patient, responsive, flexible, tactful, and a genuinely remarkable human being. Oh. Did I mention he negotiated $7.5k off the purchase price of my ideal home?

ReviewRob has been a pleasure to work with throughout the process of buying our first home. We have relied on him to show us homes locally for the past six years and he provided a good list serve via email so we were able to track local homes for sale in the area even when we were not living here. He is kind, respectful and knowledgable about processes and homes in the Humboldt County area and can provide neighborhood information and helpful examples from his extensive experience as a realtor. He seems to have a good understanding of paperwork and real estate/loan processes and worked really well with our lender, which helped forward the process. Rob is easy going, friendly and always responsive even at odd hours. He responded well to our unique needs and was patient with us through the process of buying our first home.

ReviewRob was a great realtor. He helped to get us a lower price and ask from the seller compensation for the things that had been neglected on the property. He was very friendly and on top of things from beginning to end. I would definitely recommend him as a realtor.

ReviewRob was an excellent buyer. He knows a lot about the Arcata area. He was super responsive. Wrote our bid up quickly. He was very professional. He was very knowledgeable of the process and walked us through the whole process. He knew lenders and inspectors to get us started. unfortunaly our deal fell through, and Rob was very professional when we had to cancel our bid. I would recommend him to anyone who is buying or selling a home in the Arcata area.

ReviewWe live in southern California and were so fortunate to employ Rob for buying a home in rural Humboldt County. He clearly knows his profession, but did not hesitate to seek legal advice which he needed to answer one of our questions. He has great communication skills---he promptly returned texts and calls and kept us well informed. He goes out of his way to be helpful---he brought a water sample to a lab for us and provided names of a handyman, various inspectors, insurance agent, and an attorney. He is friendly, patient, flexible, clever, and humorous. It was a real pleasure working with this gentleman.

ReviewRob helped us learn the different areas around Humboldt Bay, finding houses that reflected our needs and wants, and good-humoredly indulging our interest in several properties outside our stated preferences. Full of knowledge about the area. Prompt and clear in communications, and flexible to our house-hunting visits over several months (we were relocating from several hours away) until we found and bought our new property. Have already recommended him to friends.

ReviewI had a great experience working with Rob on the sale of my house. He was knowledgeable about the local market and what to expect. He was able to address my questions promptly and keep me updated regularly as we progressed with the sale. I felt at ease knowing that Rob was overseeing each step of the process and everything went smoothly right through the close of escrow.

ReviewRob listed for me a difficult-to-sell rental property. He brought valuable insight as I prepared the property for sale, and he consistently provided honest, sound advice through the long process of finding a qualified and committed buyer. He was readily available to consult and extremely easy to work with. I recommend him without reservation.

ReviewRob was just a great agent to deal with all around. He was super easy to talk to, he responded quickly, and just all around a nice guy. My escrow was very quick - and I have no doubt that at least some of that was attributed to Rob. During the process he also went above and beyond and made it really feel to me that he was "batting for my team" so to speak. He made a couple different negotiations with the sellers that I hadn't even thought of. I was a first time home buyer, and I can admit, I didn't know a lot. He never made me feel dumb for asking stupid questions. The best way I could put it is it felt like talking a friend.

ReviewI was impressed with Rob's availability, knowledge of local experts, and understanding of the market in Humboldt County. He enlisted scores of experts who I met with to discuss my interests, and chased aggressively after pieces of information in an extremely timely manner. I have not met many realtors as dedicated to the interests of his client, and as someone who has invested in real estate for decades that is hard for me to say. Also, he is a super nice guy!

ReviewRob helped us buy a 3-unit building in 2014. It was a very complicated transaction including two tax deferred exchanges, three principals in two states and took over 6 months, but he persevered with good humor and got her done!! Now, 2 years later we are looking to buy again and Rob has been extremely patient as we look and look, but haven't found the right property yet. He usually responds within the hour. He always has an upbeat attitude and makes suggestions about how to structure an offer or make changes to the property. He has shown us property in Arcata, Eureka and Fortuna and knows all the neighborhoods we've seen. I can easily recommend him for your real estate needs.

ReviewRob is an outstanding realtor, if you like knowledgeable, friendly and professional service! He paid attention to ALL the details and guided me through the sale of my home. He even mended a rocking chair at my open house, in case someone wanted to sit down. How many realtors would do that? He could tell when I got confused by the wording in the contracts and made sure that I understood what it all meant. I very highly recommend Rob Hampson (and he has a great sense of humor!)

ReviewRob is a very attentive and effective realtor with a vast knowledge of the region, and often personal knowledge of decades of history of a specific property. He is also an expert in the entire buying process, not just finding the right property and he supported me with contacts and advice throughout the negotiations. Rob is the most transparent, honest and hard working agent I worked with as investor and I feel lucky I found him.

ReviewWe came to Eureka from Massachusetts and Rob was an immense help in our house search here in Eureka. He then went above and beyond, as we had to return to the east coast after a week, keeping us apprised of the progress of the sale/negotiation etc. It was Rob's knowledge of the area that got us into this wonderful neighborhood we now live in. In addition we purchased our new home for considerably less than 'Market' due to Rob's skills as a negotiator. Rob has not only been above competent but also treated us not only as valued customers but as friends. We feel that Rob is a benefit to anyone he represents and you could not possibly have a better realtor. Thank you, Eric and Jacqui Zeiler

ReviewIt can be difficult finding a good real estate agent. We were lucky to find Rob. We sold a multi-family property through Rob in which his skill and expertise made the whole process incredibly smooth. If your considering buying or selling a house contact Rob.
