Timo helped me buy my first house! (Still can't believe it!) I had a lot of questions, but he and his associate Renee were patient, professional, and fast in answering all of them. I found Timo through a friend and he could not have been more helpful and knowledgeable about the whole process for this noob home buyer. Highly recommend he and Renee and am so grateful to my friend for recommending him.

Timo is the Best of the Best!The Rivetti Team took the overwhelming and impossible experience of purchasing a dream ranch property in the San Francisco Bay Area and made me feel like I was part of an all star professional team. It all began while I was working at a wildlife sanctuary in Petaluma- I knew I needed my own land in order to create the sanctuary for animals and humans that I dreamt of. I did not have the resources to buy this property. My initial 3 real estate agents gave up on me. Then, I called Timo because I was interested in a 5 acre piece of land and Timo said "This parcel will never work but I have the perfect place for you".That is when the fun began. I watched with awe as Timo weaved an impossible deal between buyer and seller. This property was a 3 acre multi-use property with a 2500 sq ft commercial business. I could not imagine this magical place could be mine. I was definitely out of my league. But Timo kept going. There were so many moments when I thought the deal would fall through. Timo knew how to keep both parties calm and motivated. Not only did I get the property for $50,000 less than list price, Timo secured financing for me. Financing was the most challenging hurdle in the purchase. Now, two months after moving into my new ranch house- Timo is still there- answering texts promptly, giving me great referrals for electricians, plumbers, commercial agents..I think Timo's secret is that he is a very well connected Realtor in Sonoma County. He feels like a friend and advisor while maintaining a high level of professionalism. Timo could have pushed me into much easier real estate deals. But Timo knew this was the right place for me. Timo is a true advocate for the interests of his clients. He negotiates confidently through the seeming chaos of agents, contractors and workers . He draws on a wealth of experience, knowledge and connections to close even the toughest of deals. If you are looking for your dream home, I would ask Timo- he might just take you there!

We are so glad we chose Timo to be our realtor! Navigating the home buying market in a new community can be a challenge, but navigating the market during the unprecedented topsy turvy COVID times, can be daunting. Inventory was very low due to COVID, but Timo was extremely patient, never pressuring us into buying a property that wasnt just right. He showed us several properties. Even though they may not have all been exactly what we were looking for initially, the property visits helped us re-evaluate and formulate what was really important to us in a new home. We are now closing on a beautiful home and the process could not have gone more smoothly. Timo is an excellent resource in the community with contractor and tradesmen recommendations, and is very much in the loop as to which properties may be coming up on the market even before they have been listed. Do give Timo a call if you are in need of a local realtor!

I cannot say enough about my incredible experience with Timo and his assistant Renee. I am 22 years old and had a dream of buying a house in westside Petaluma. Most people would say that is impossible, well not if you have Timo on your side! Timo walked me through the process and made me feel so comfortable and confident throughout the whole process. Timo truly had my back and did the impossible and I now am a proud owner of a house in west side Petaluma. I will be using Timo for any purchase or sell I ever have, and I recommend you do the same. Thank you again Timo! Together we aEURoeMade HistoryaEUR?

Timo is a part of our Petaluma family at this point. My girls ask about him, and we enjoy working with him all the time. Timo was reassuring, communicative, and talented at negotiating. My husband and I truly felt that Timo was looking out for us. We are so happy that Timo was recommended to us six years ago, and we are so happy we used them for our second house!

Timo is amazing, a true miracle worker! Our house was previously on the market with another local agent- after 65 plus days with no offers, we decided to take our house off the market and take a different approach. We reached out to Timo, and thanks to his guidance, hard work, and dedication our home sold in less than 2 weeks. Timo is knowledgeable, understands the local housing market, and advocates for his clients. He is now helping us find our dream home. Team Timo is the way to go!

When we first talked, Timo listened and made suggestions. We developed a relationship early before he went to work for us. He and his team acted professional and swiftly. Timo is always receptive to suggestions and a very good listener.

What a wonderful agent! Timo has been in Petaluma quite a while and knows everybody, and since he seems to treat everyone with professionalism, he is very well respected. He found us the dream home we were looking for and handled everything through the process. Very grateful for his help and now we have a new friend as well. And if you like Timo, his wife is even nicer!
