Now THIS is what a true Realtor should be!…read more I am currently working with Naomi Longoria....I cannot tell you how pleasant she is to work with...she always has suggestions on other properties etc.....and it seems like she never sleeps! This is quite refreshing since my last experience was horrible...I worked with a young girl who gave zero effort but wanted a FULL paycheck.....pretty sad considering Norcal has a great work ethic. Not sure how long it will take me...but Naomi really has made this a great experience. Do yourself a favor and contact her!

Cathy Daniel worked tirelessly with us to find exactly the home we needed when we returned to…read moreCalifornia. She's calm, patient, and persistent. She worked hard to navigate the crazy process of buying a bank-owned property. We are so happy we worked with her, and endorse her for anyone seeking an agent who knows what she's doing and listens to what you want.

Lynnda Mitosinka is the Broker/Owner of Morningstar and as someone told me "she is THE AGENT if…read moreyou are looking in the East County for real estate". They were right. This nice smart lady knows Real Estate. She does not waste your time driving you around looking at homes that will not fit your needs. When you first meet with Lynnda tell her what you are looking for, she will then only show you homes that work. As she is a long time resident and realtor in Oakley she knows the area like the back of her hand. Lynnda is nice, knowledgeable, smart and knows how to put and keep your deal together. If you are somone who hates real estate agents , Lynnda will definitely change your point of view.

We only had to put in one offer, and she even negotiated a seller credit. Megan is efficient, professional, and great at what she does.

Rachel Barrios stuck by us for three years as we worked toward making the dream of homeownership a…read morereality. When we were finally approved and ready to start looking, she went above and beyond to make sure we had every opportunity to find the right home. She rearranged her schedule, made herself available at odd hours, and was always ready to jump in whenever we needed her. Rachel made what could have been an incredibly stressful process feel as smooth as possible, even with all the inevitable bumps along the way. She was kind, thoughtful, patient, and supportive every step of the way. She even helped us work through escrow issues while she was on vacation. Talk about going above and beyond! We are incredibly grateful to Rachel for everything she did to help our family achieve this dream. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. And if we ever move again, there is no question that Rachel will be our first call!

Michael Jr. (from here on just "Michael") gave us stellar service from showing us house after house…read moreto handing us the keys to our new home :). He also introduced us to Tambra Jenkins of Advanced Global Mortgage who is an *ABSOLUTE FINANCIAL WIZARD!!!* He successfully helped us write an offer for a short sale and told us to "hang in there" for the long ride. Over the course of the next six months, Michael **patiently** responded to my "nu-mer-ous" (lol, seriously, that's an understatement!!!) emails, txts and phone calls inquiring about the status of the sale and any possible updates. Unfortunately, one of the pitfalls of negotiating a short sale is that the lenders involved can decline the offer, even after all that time. So, long story short: the contract was cancelled by mutual agreement (we wish the Seller the best of luck & hope that things turn out okay for her). As with any good relationship, communication is KEY -- by this time, Michael knew what we were looking for in a home & was committed to helping us find it. As a team, we negotiated aggressively & wrote contract after contract until finally we got the one that we wanted. The business is family owned and operated, so if you want to work with people who place a high value on family relationships, I wholeheartedly recommend working with Michael & his team.

Michael Gourkani is quite possibly the worst property manager that exists in this area. To put it…read moresimply, he works for the tenants, not the clients who are paying him. Property owners are not in his best interest. He allows tenants to not pay rent on time, and charges no late fees or NSF fees. He also had a tenant sign a new lease agreement prior to talking with owners and having owner agree on rent amount. He will make excuses why tenants aren't able to pay on time, and not offer to help correct the unwanted behavior. Also is horrible at record keeping and takes forever to respond to simple emails or phone calls requesting information. He clearly needs to retire because his business practices are antiquated.

If you want to become a home owner DO NOT go through Renegade Real Estate Service Inc, AND…read moredefinately do not deal with Adrienne Smith. She is a lier and made me believe I would become a home owner. She even moved me and my family from a home I was renting in Vallejo at 7 months pregnant into the house I was suppose to be purchasing in Antioch CA. She moved us into a home WITHOUT any loan documents................. She kept lying saying that we would close in 2 days well 2 days never came. THERE WAS NEVER A LOAN to begin with. Once the Owner/ bank of the property I was living in found out I was living there we HAD to move. Adrienne Smith didn't even inform the seller that my family and I had moved in. Dealing with Adrienne Smith you will end up homeless. Her web site says they turn challenges into opportunity, however they will turn a potential homeowner into becoming homeless with all of her lies and deceits.

Building owner and/or manager M was also condescending and rude during troubleshooting hex and front door keys.

Last week, I met with Marc (rep for SMI) to view a small office for rent in the 1210 Central…read morebuilding. I fell in love with the office and told Marc I was interested. He gave me my application and said I would get the office. When I came back from the holiday weekend, I contacted Marc again and said I want the office and I was getting all paperwork completed and would have the lease paid in full for the year. Marc texted me "I will check in with team to see when the suite will be ready to rent and keep you posted." Two and a half days later, I contact Marc at SMI and told him I had the full year's lease and the paperwork. Marc told me that he decided to give my office space that was promised to me to another tenant, a tenant that was there for six years and wanted to expand. Marc said they didn't want to lose this tenant as a customer and gave my promised office space to them. So much for keeping me posted as promised. I was left high and dry after believing the office was mine. I will never rent an office through SMI because of this unprofessional and unethical behavior from this business and its reps.
