I would recommend Seaside Realty to my closest friends and family. Chris, the owner, is amazing. It took us a few years to find a house we liked and could afford, but he was never impatient with us. He knew exactly what we were looking for, and he never gave up on us, sending us properties he thought we would like. He always went the extra mile, doing extra research into neighborhoods, as well as possible risk factors, like landslides, etc. Unlike so many realtors, he was never pushy, and he never seemed to be in it to make a quick sell. In fact, various times he warned us against properties because he felt they weren't safe or had other issues. When we wanted to stop looking for a while, he understood. Even when we decided to pull out of an offer we had accepted, he was patient and understanding. He really felt like a friend who had our best interests at heart. I never thought I'd be a homeowner, but Chris really made it happen for us. I've seen a lot of agents out there, when we were looking at homes for YEARS, and Chris is by far the most down to Earth, most honest, most friendly, the most real. I remember thinking how other agents seemed so creepy and out for the sale. Chris put us at ease. We completely trusted him and feel so lucky to have found him. I really can't recommend him highly enough! read more

As far as Chirs Chin is concern, there's not a betiter agent / broker I could have had to handle our real estate transactions. Mr Chin took his time to explain what he expected the end results to be upon the completion of the selling of our Condo. The skillful selling techniques utilized by Mr Chin resulted in way more than what was expected. We were well informed on each step of the selling process and he was always available to respond to our questions. Thank you again Mr Chin for a job well done. read more

I am the parent of a daughter and her husband who handled three real estate transactions simultaneously, with Chris Chin of Seaside Realty. I am still awestruck at the time and effort Chris put in ensuring that each transaction came to fruition AND that ALL parties were happy. Chris has an entire team and their work ethic is the same. Each team member guided each party in the transaction making sure they understood what was happening, going to happen and what happened. I can not remember a time that a phone call went to voice mail or an email went unanswered. Three real estate transactions, all at the same time in negotiation and all three went through as anticipated. Don't you want Chris Chin, Seaside Realty and his team working for you? read more

Chris worked with us for a while to find our perfect home and when we finally found it he worked extremely hard on our behalf. He negotiated his ass off for us.

Chris is one of the greatest agents we have had over the years.

Chris and Seaside Realty are fantastic Property Managers. I own a sizable portfolio of 13 Single-Family Residential buildings in the Ventura County region. I have slowly handed Chris the management responsibility of the entire portfolio. After working with various property managers over the years, I must say Chris is one of the best. He provides BOTH great Monthly Reporting and Management on my portfolio. He is a Full-Service operation and is able to turn/rehab units when they become available and also pushes for rents on the higher end of the range with stable/quality tenants. I would highly recommend Chris's services to manage your residential real estate portfolio. He responds quickly to emails and also returns phone calls in a timely manner. Lastly, I have known him several years and he is very honest. I sleep well at night knowing Chris has the best interest for my portfolio. read more

Chris and his team helped my wife and I purchase our first home last month. We are relocating from San Diego and had to conduct much of the process remotely, making quick trips to Ventura when necessary. Chris was our eyes and ears in Ventura, frequently driving to check-out houses we couldn't see for ourselves. When we ultimately found the house we wanted, he advocated and worked on our behalf, and now it's ours! Three weeks after closing we continue to communicate with Chris daily, as he helps us with little odds & ends. We can't thank him enough. We would certainly recommend Chris and his team to anyone looking for a house in the area. read more

Chris helped us buy a property in Oxnard. He was super helpful, very professional, and gave us great advice about the neighborhoods and what the fair prices were. Made excellent referrals for a lender, inspectors. Super communicative throughout the whole process, helped us take care of every detail. Honest, friendly, ethical, trustworthy, and looks out for your best interests. What more could you ask for in a real estate agent? We couldn't be happier. And we even got the home for less than we were expecting! Top notch service and would use him again in a heartbeat. read more

Chris Chin is the best property manager I've ever worked with. We've had other property management companies in the past that were nowhere near as good as Chris. When we hired him, he promptly helped us get the house ready, by organizing and managing the process of redoing the floors, painting, building a fence, installing new countertops and cabinets, and many other miscellaneous projects that the house was in desperate need of. And then he found a great tenet in no time. He is exactly who you want watching out for your property. He has a great network of contacts and is always available. In fact he was so good at property management, we switched realtors so that we could work with him to find a great house to buy. read more

Chris Chin came recommended to us and started working as a manager for one of our properties in Ventura. The contrast between Chris and our previous company was day and night. Chris' first job with us was to oversee the full re-model of the property. He brought in an excellent crew, had a team of great contractors ready for the jobs we needed, thoroughly researched all options to get us the best quality and price no matter how small the detail. He truly goes above and beyond with all of our questions and requests. Chris was so great as a property manager that we started shopping to buy a new home, we switched from the agent we were using to Chris. We could not be happier. Chris cares about doing an excellent job, loves what he does and it consistently shows in his energy, drive, and great personality. read more

I work with a lot of realtors in my business and Chris is who I chose to sell our home in Camarillo. Chris is a man of integrity, keeping your word in business these days is a rare thing and he does it. He was able to manage my wife and my ideas of what we thought should be done while bringing good suggestions and experience to the conversations. Chris got us a reasonable price for our home and managed the transaction well to completion. His communication was excellent, considerate and compassionate as we went through this process. The buying realtors were rather challenging and seemed to bring complications to the transaction. Chris managed them well, he knew where to give in and where to stand our ground. It worked out as he said it would. I place a large value on someone being trustworthy and honest, Chris did not let us down and I'm sure he would treat you equally as well if you choose to use him. read more

We cannot say enough good things about Chris Chin. We were in the market for a home at the beginning of the pandemic, and Chris was still able to meet us and show us homes in a safe manner. He suggested a few homes to us based on our preferences, and ultimately we did find one that was perfect! However, as first-time homebuyers, we were lost, confused and very worried that we would make a huge mistake that could cost us time and money. Chris helped us along the entire way - organizing inspections, answering the immense amount of questions we had, clarifying every term that we didn't understand, offering advice about what is more important/less important when it comes to negotiation, and helping us understand the mortgage loan and escrow process. He is very friendly, experienced, and fun to work with. He was also very available and responsive for which we are very appreciative. With his help, we were able to buy our dream home and it was not at all difficult like what I have heard from my friends. It was fast, smooth, painless, and actually enjoyable! We closed on time, and have been very happy! We would highly recommend working with Chris! read more

I do not give 5 stars to anyone for being average. If you are looking to sell of buy real estate in Ventura County, Chis is you man. read more

I can't say enough good things about Chris and how he helped me buy and sell my property. In 2010, I was looking to buy a rental property in Ventura County. I wasn't quite sure what to buy and I had no experience with rental properties. Chris patiently educated me on what to look for and how the numbers would allow me to earn positive cash flow. With Chris's help, I was able to buy a small condo in Santa Paula. He made the whole process so simple and I was able to close on the property very quickly. I honestly couldn't believe how easy Chris made it. A few years later, I decided to sell the property and I knew that Chris would again be my agent. The tenants who moved out were really dirty and left the garage completely full of junk. Since I live 2 hours away, I didn't have the time or energy to come up and prep the property for selling. To my great relief: Chris took care of everything! He removed all the junk from the garage, tore out the dirty carpet, killed all the bugs and roaches (the tenants were dirty). To top everything off, he found a buyer who was willing to pay cash for the condo. From the time the tenants moved out, to the time I sold the property was less than a month! All thanks to Chris Chin. He's the man for anything involving real estate in Ventura County! read more

I instinctively liked Chris when I first met him at an open house. He is honest, sincere, hard working, knowledgable and professional. We were looking for someone we felt we could trust and who would be able to guide us through the process of preparing and selling our Townhome. He was so helpful and went beyond the call of duty to make sure our questions were answered. He advised us about which were the most important features for us to upgrade prior to selling and he even met the contractors/workers at the house so that I didn't have to miss as much work. We wound up getting several bids the first weekend our home was listed and accepted a bid that was above our asking price. We would definitely recommend Chris as a realtor and would pick him again. He was a pleasure to work with. read more
