I approached a beautiful home for sale, in Santa Clarita, and met the realtor, Chris. I live in the area, and was curious about the current housing market, communities and area trends. Chris was very professional, personable and knowledgeable...my assessment, "he's a top expert in this area, his input is invaluable!" He gave me the time of day, and answered and explained all my questions. Chris shares his successful business with his better half, and beautiful wife, Cori. They're an excellent team! In my line of work, like when buying a new home...trust, credibility and reliability are everything, and I could tell immediately, and after checking him out, that Chris is an honest, trustworthy, patriotic guy. He's got my business! read more

It has taken me much too long to write this review simply because, what is there to say about this amazing team/couple/family? They are best of the best because it's not just work for them... they genuinely care -- all the details, emotions that come with home shopping/selling... they really do take care of you. I have worked with other realtors but none come close to Chris and Cori. I first met Cori through a co-worker and she was just the most amazing and helping my find a dream home in Santa Clarita. It was pretty hard but she stuck it though, kept me motivated and encouraged...all the while, being a true friend in the process. It was my first major real estate experience but Cori was so patient in helping figure out what I truly wanted and needed in a home. Some of my favorite memories were from visiting homes at that time. When the perfect house came up... Chris was up to bat. It was a tricky bank situation and the two of them pulled us through... I don't know how but we got the house and it was EVERYTHING. Then, years later, I had to sell this home for different opportunities. And what could have been one of the worst, most stressful situations.. Chris picked up and handled. Silva Realty hired the best staff, they renovated the house and made it sale ready in NO TIME. From start to finish: reno, to posting, to sale, to closing escrow... it happened in no time and I could not be more grateful. These two are nothing short of pure magic. They exude genuine care, energy, honesty, effort, positive vibes, and understanding with all they do because it's natural to them. No school can teach you that. No realty program. They are naturals at this work and caring for those around them. Whenever you're near them... you can feel their light! Don't miss out! Get ready for the best realty experience of your life. And once you're made it in (or out.. of your home)... you're part of this beautiful family. read more

Chris was more than helpful in finding us a house in Valencia. He was extremely honest, upfront, and was able to find us a great home that fit right in our price range! He was extremely communicative and easy to reach to answer any of our questions at all times. He was quick to resolve any issues! Chris made the nightmare that is finding a house in the Santa Clarita Valley a breeze! read more

My husband and I outgrew our little condo and have always dreamed of owning a house with a yard, garage, more space and a LAUNDRY ROOM! Of course we talked about buying a home, but never had an action plan. We actually went as far as visiting multiple model homes which kicked our hopes into high gear. I was pretty much perusing homes on the market everyday until we found THE house (*cue triumphant music*). We went to the open house and fell in love with this home. That was it, we started the pre-approval process and connected with a great mortgage lender who referred us to Chris. Chris was very easy going, professional and I secretly (not so secret anymore) think he's a magical wizard. I had my eyes set on this home, but unfortunately our offer wasn't accepted. Crying and dying inside, we reluctantly went to view other homes, even made an offer on another. Another agent may have stopped there, but this isn't Chris' first rodeo and he definitely is not your average agent. This guy KNEW we loved this home and kept in contact with the selling agent to keep us in mind in case the current offer falls out. Call him Triple D Silva because his dedication, determination and drive to keep his clients happy got us our DREAM home! We've been in our beautiful home for almost a year, I still can't believe we live here. Thank you, Chris and the entire Silva Realty team! read more

I've never bought or sold a house. My parents bought my condo years ago when I was a student. Fast forward 14 years, married and with a kid the thought of selling and buying is overwhelming. I met Randy Ellis not as a realtor, but as a musician on a job. A very humble person who never talks about himself. His interest is always in helping others. If I could sum him up very simply, he has a servants heart. Very few people I've ever met radiate that kind of energy and Randy is one of them. Later, when I found out he was a realtor (he had been one for sometime without my knowledge) I knew he would be our guy when it was time. I highly recommend Randy. He has a heart of gold and will treat you like family! read more

They are definitely our number one choice. Thank you Silva Realty Group for all you did for us. , read more

I just closed on my first purchase this week. Chris was EXTREMELY helpful and went far above and beyond what I imagined any broker would be willing to do. To start, I am a veteran and a first time home buyer. Although I did my research ahead of time, once the process started it seemed rather daunting purchasing a home by myself, but after speaking with Chris and his team the entire transaction went flawlessly well. Chris managed to get my loan revised not once, not twice, not even three time, but five times he negotiated the terms and conditions of my loan to get every possible credit available, and when all was said and done he managed to get a surplus of credits to reduce the principal immediately upon funding. I was blown away at how persistent he was at getting me the absolute best deal he could. I could've settled for the first offer he submitted, but Chris understood that I was doing this all by myself and he took extra steps to make sure I was more than satisfied. In addition, he took the time out of his day to thoroughly explain every step in the process and why we were doing what we were doing. The service from Chris and his team nothing less than spectacular. I am extremely grateful to Chris and his team for helping me as much as possible and highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a real estate professional who values high quality customer service. Thank you Chris! read more

We worked with Cori Silva to purchase a home that closed a few weeks ago and let me tell you, having Cori on our side automatically made us feel like the playing field was not level, ours instantly became the A team in the transaction due to Cori's skills in negotiating, logistics coordination and pit bull like persistence! She saved us several thousand dollars with her negotiating skills and was extremely detail oriented to insure we didn't forget to dot our I's or cross our T's. Thanks Cori! www.corisilva.com/ read more

My family and I had the opportunity to work with Silva Realty twice now. In January 2013 we closed on our brand new home in Santa Clarita. My husband was active duty in the US Army at the time and we were living out of state. We were referred to Cori through our VA lender and were extremely greatful for that referral. Buying a house can be an extremely stressful experience alone, but trying to coordinate all this from several states away was much more overwhelming. Cori's knowledge of the subject and professional customer service made our purchase much easier and way less stressful. Always keeping a positive attitude and reassuring us that we would find the right house for us, even after one of our offers fell through. A few months ago my husband and I refinanced our home and used Chris and Cori and their expertise on the subject again. They again we're a wealth of knowledge and extremely helpful with this process. Chris took the helm on this one because Cori had just had a baby. Chris was equally as great and professional. We will continue to use Chris and Cori for all our real estate needs. Thank you again Silva Realty for making these large financial decisions much less stressful. read more

We had only positive experiences with Chris. We enjoyed his positive energy, honesty, humor, and dedication to helping us find our home. We felt informed and knew Chris was on top of things. He followed up on any questions or concerns we had, and he was always friendly and patient with us. We love our house and he made the process so easy! read more

I know Randy Ellis personally and I can vouch he's a good man and is willing to do what he can to help anyone looking for housing. He's been very instrumental in helping my wife and I with obtaining a comfortable living situation for a family of 6. I strongly recommend Randy Ellis if you're looking for a home!! read more

My wife and I have used Silva Realty twice in less than 3 years. First time to purchase a condo and second time to sell said condo and purchase a house at the same time. Chris was able to find a buyer for the condo before it was even listed. He went above and beyond to make sure things went smoothly each time. He didn't stop searching for a house for us until he found one that fit our criteria. With Silva Realty you don't just get a Broker/Realtor, you get a friend. read more

Just a few weeks ago, we accomplished our long-planned goal of selling our home. This entire process of first buying, refinancing, then selling our home would have not been possible without Team Silva Realty and Loans! A HUGE Thank you is an understatement for your amazing expertise throughout the years from the beginning of ownership until we passed on the keys to the new home owners. Cori and Chris, you're both incredible at what you do and we can't imagine what this entire experience would have been without you guys! Our favorite part for us was/is, that we didn't have to worry about anything and that we were able to fully trust your expertise in all three transactions. We feel sorry for anyone that doesn't get to have your unmatched services! Our deepest thanks from the five of us (even though our pack is staring at their prize instead of the lens LOL) for getting us through incredible stages of our life with such ease. You guys are Real Estate and Loans ROCKSTARS! read more

I know Randy Ellis very well and he is very instrumental in encouraging me to think about buying an investment property, knowing I own my own home already. He is very knowledgeable about the pulse of the real estate market and encouraged me to think about being diversified and creating multiple streams of income, especially while the real estate market is hot! I am excited about considering another property purchase as an investment property. Randy is resourceful, engaging, listens well, has vision and a wealth of information. He puts his clients needs first and plants wise seeds for potential discretionary income independent of a nine to five job. I would highly recommend Randy Ellis and Team Silva Realty for your real estate needs, rather you are a first time home buyer or an investor in investment property! read more

Silva Realty is the right choice...What can I say...realtor Randy Ellis is an AMAZING agent. He helped my twin brother and his wife sell their home. His expertise and professionalism is 5 stars. I recommend Randy Ellis as your realtor read more

Chris helped me find my home almost 5 years ago and I couldn't be happier. He was always professional and his guidance helped me find the right home at the right price. As a first time home owner, he walked me through all the hurdles and answered all my questions. I couldn't be happier to have chosen Silva Realty as my real estate team! I highly recommend their services and I guarantee you'll be as happy as I am. read more

I began working with Chris in May of 2018. A friend and I were discussing the possibility of selling our homes, and the possible implications and goals for doing so. My friend had worked with Chris before, and shortly after our conversation, he decided to sell his home and purchase a new one, hiring Chris as his realtor. I, on the other hand, wasn't so swift to take the plunge. I called Chris and told him that I was "potentially" interested in selling my home and buying a new one. I had a TON of questions, which he graciously answered, even though at that point I made no indication that I'd be selling or buying a home. This ensued for approximately 2 months before I decided to finally list my home for sale and purchase a new home. I literally asked him 100 + questions before making the decision to list my home. Once listed, Chris guided me through every aspect of both the sale and the purchasing process. He had very specific suggestions for staging, filming and photographing my home, suggestions that I believe helped us get top dollar in our eventual sale. He spared no expense in the marketing efforts for my home, ensuring that he maximized every opportunity to make it visible to anyone that might be potentially interested in buying it. On the purchase side, due to the very particular goals I had for my new home, Chris literally showed us over 40 homes in person. Chris is one of the most patient individuals I've ever met. I am an EXTREMELY curious person and need granular details on EVERYTHING, and he obliged my need for information every step of the way - in person, via email, phone, and text, at all hours of the day and night. Chris is a true expert at his craft. From the marketing of my home, to the list price, to the inevitable deal we got on the home we purchased, Chris' expertise is what allowed us to sell our home for top dollar (literally sold for $40k more than exact model matches in my neighborhood, even though my home wasn't even as updated as those homes). He also secured us a beautiful home that checked nearly all of my "must haves" (and believe me, it was a very LONG and specific list) and the best part, we got an AMAZING deal on the home we purchased too! We sold our home for more than anyone else was selling, and bought our new home for less than anyone else was paying; doesn't get any better than that! Our transaction was very complex. There were several dominoes that needed to fall in sequence for us to ultimately realize our dreams. I firmly believe that if I had hired any other realtor, I would have quit fairly early on into the process. I could go on and on, but if you read none of the above, read this: If you want realtor that is attentive, patient, incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and will advocate for what's best for YOU at EVERY step of the way, without imposing any personal bias, AND be your friend, adviser, and therapist, all while trying to make your real estate dreams come true, HIRE CHRIS SILVA! read more

Silva Realty is the absolute best choice for all your real estate needs... Chris and Cori Silva are the dynamic duo in the real estate world, think Superman and Wonder Woman! They are the hardest working couple I've ever had the pleasure of knowing! They always have their clients best interests at heart. Chris has even rolled up his own sleeves to get a listing ready! He does what ever he needs to get the job done. They go above and beyond the call of duty whenever given the opportunity to do so. I don't know of any realtors/brokers that are willing to work as hard to earn your business, exceed your expectations, and over deliver like Chris & Cori! I would definitely recommend these to family, friends, Yelpers, and anyone who asks! read more

Can say enough about Silva Realty. Chris helped me find my first home last year. He made home buying a great and stress free experience. He knew what I wanted for my budget and made it where I found something that was going to bring joy to my family and I at an affordable price. Him and his team were a pleasure to work with. I would recommend Silva Realty to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home. read more

My husband and I used Silva Realty for the first time almost 2 years ago and all we can say is WOW! We had an incredible experience. It was our first time buying a home and we were nervous - we've heard all the horror stories but the entire process was amazing! Our realtor, Josh Dokka, was patient and made everything so smooth! Everyone on the Silva Realty team was amazing, professional and always available for questions! We're currently in the process of selling our home and buying and it's amazing how great they make this process! I couldn't recommend them more! You won't regret it!! read more

What a Godsend! Run, do not walk to Silva Realty! First time home buyers here and we truly feel like we struck gold in Chris and Cori Silva. In the first 2 weeks with their team we FINALLY have our first home! Before we found Silva Realty, we had pretty much lost all hope. For 6 months we had worked with another realtor. We made offer after offer; 50 in total to no avail. We would go to great lengths - even bidding over the winning offer and continually came up short. Week after week, month after month, it was beginning to be unbearable. Enter Chris and Cori at Silva Realty. They renewed our faith, took great care of us and closed our deal! They were transparent, communicative, and caring. They were more than expected or like anything we had ever experienced. They have been nothing short of amazing. Dream team is putting it lightly. Thank you Chris and Cori for everything! You have changed our lives! read more

Chris and Cori are the absolute best at what they do. They helped us purchase our home 9 years ago. What appeared to be a straightforward buy, ended up being a little more complicated. They, however handled it wonderfully and remained dedicated to getting us the home we wanted. They also ensured we received the best loan rates using my husbands VA benefits. Just an all around amazing experience. We LOVE Silva Realty!!! read more

With Chris Silva, my dream of buying a home became a reality, much quicker than I could have ever imagined! He is incredibly organized. He is super friendly, patient, knowledgeable and hard working. He is very responsible in answering all questions in detail. I absolutely recommend Chris Silva for new home buyers. read more

In order to land our dream home, we needed every star in the sky to align perfectly. The house we wanted was generating a lot of interest and had already been on the market a month and our property was nowhere near ready to be sold. Looking back, I do not think any other agent could have pulled this off. We found Chris by happy coincidence; he was recommended by our lender, Nick Bronsozian of Prime Lending. My first call to Chris was meant to be an introduction and a "hey can you take us on as a client?" As busy as Chris is, he still happily took us on and immediately started working for us. Within a couple days, he came out to our condo, and laid out a checklist of things we needed to do to get it ready to list, and before we knew it, appointments were getting scheduled and offers were coming in...before even having an open house. On the buying side, we were not chosen for our dream home due to our sale contingency. While Chris continued to show us other properties, he stayed in constant contact with the sellers' agent, just in the event the deal fell through. Somehow, some way, the deal fell through and the seller came back to us despite not being the highest backup offer. The sellers' agent specifically noted that they liked us, but they really liked our agent. The rest is history! Chris is the most professional, knowledgeable, and hardworking agent I've met. His work ethic and customer service are second only to his personality. He's not just a great guy to work with, but a great guy, period. We couldn't have asked for more in an agent, but if we had, Chris would have delivered. read more

Chris and Cori, first and foremost are great individuals, they are honest and hard working and can adapt to your personality and your needs. I would highly recommend them to anyone and I do as much as possible already if the opportunity presents itself. You would not regret working with them and you would definitely be pleased with any outcome. Give them a try and you'll never leave. read more

The Silva Realty team was the best thing that could have happened to me in the journey to my first home purchase. I can't thank them enough. Chris is a true professional and he was there early mornings and late nights to answer any and all of the many questions I had. The builders took a whole year to get the construction done but Chris didn't waiver in his support and professionalism meanwhile I was screaming and hollering at the seller like every other day! Hahaha! But we did it! Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart. I can wholeheartedly recommend Silva Realty to anyone that is thinking about buying their first home, second home, income property, commercial property, you name it, they sure know how to get things done and their experience and professionalism shows. THANK YOU! read more

Cori is the best. She helped us look for a house for 6 months. WE made many offers and her positive attitude helped when at times all seemed lost. We finally found our home and have been enjoying it for two years. When we are ready for a bigger home I will definitely call Cori. read more

This was the first home purchase for my wife and me - and we had our first baby on the way during the whole process too. We couldn't be more happy with Chris as our realtor! Chris is a professional guy who goes the extra mile for his clients. He didn't put any pressure on us to buy and he was there for us whenever we had questions or concerns during the entire process. When we finally did put an offer on a home, Chris went to bat for us in negotiating with the sellers and got us the deal we wanted in the time frame we needed. When it comes time to buy our next home, we will definitely work with Chris again. If you're doing a home purchase in the Santa Clarita area, Chris Silva is the guy you should work with. read more

Randy helped us buy our first house here in Santa Clarita four years ago. He was excellent in every way. And this isn't a bias review because I met him at an open house; I had no outside friendship with him or anyone he knows. Yet he treated us like family and worked hard to help us find the perfect home. Highly recommended! read more

Chris and his team are great in ensuring they do what's best for their customer. They always have your best interest in mind and protect your assets through their industry knowledge. We've done business with Chris for almost ten years now. read more

Randy Ellis was fantastic! Silva Realty and Randy truly exceeded our expectations for selling our home. We sold in days and for the price we wanted! The team was hands on and delivered a top notch marketing plan! read more

It's been a year since my original review and I still feel as excited as I did when I wrote it a year ago! I always hear people talk about all the stress they endure while searching for their new home, the process of purchasing, etc. I always feel so grateful for Silva Realty as Chris and Cori made the process so easy and stress free! I recommend them highly! read more

This couple is awesome! They are sweet, smart, professional, courteous, and work VERY hard to accommodate whatever it is that you need, in order to buy or sell your home. They are also honest. In my opinion, in their profession, honesty is a virtue that many of their colleagues are lacking. You will not be disappointed using Team Silva for your real estate needs! read more

We recently purchased our home and Silva Realty was great to work with. Chris is patient, communicates well and at no time did we feel pressured. Purchasing a home could be very stressful and Silva Realty truly tries to make the process the best for their customers. Chris and Cori always have their customers best interest. read more

We met Chris by chance at an open house and were equally taken by his open-minded, bright personality and his great practical resourcefulness, both of which immediately stood out. Even before there was any indication that we might work with, he was sharing a great wealth of information and advice that weeks of internet research wouldn't produce. While searching for a home with him, he was very accommodating of our requests and we felt the slightest bit rushed or pushed. Luckily, we found a home we liked quickly and if it hadn't been for him, we almost certainly wouldn't have been able to submit our offer just at the right moment in time (and to favorably negotiated conditions). Getting a loan with Chris and Cori was actually easier than setting up a checking account at Chase (foreign national, recent international transfer; no kidding) and we felt we were in the best of hands throughout. He was always available for questions and equally responsive and thorough in his replies. The inspections and repairs moved forward quickly thanks to his continued commitment, and in the end we managed to close escrow well ahead of time. And all the while, he also helped us with the rental of our previous property with equal dedication. All in all, the experience of finding and buying our new home with Chris has been overwhelmingly positive, we couldn't be happier with the outcome, and recommend working with him unreservedly. read more

We have been working with Chris for a couple of years. He worked with my brother on four of his properties. Chris was patient and attentive to our needs. He always made himself available to answer our questions and concerns (making offers, counter offers, home inspection, etc.), and helped us find a home that was perfect for us. We are so thankful to him for all of his help and guidance through the stressful process of buying a home. If you are in need of a realtor who will work hard for you, we highly recommend him. Thank you!!! read more

chris is my hero!! he made selling our family home as painless as possible! absolutely every single thing he suggested or told me to expect was exactly correct every time! everyone needs chris & team silva for their realtor needs!!! read more
