For Buyers

Purchase price stats reflect contract price only. Credits, repairs, rate buydowns, and other concessions are pursued on most deals and add significant value beyond the sale price.

Our Approach

The Negotiations Start Long Before You Make an Offer

Nine years of relationships with agents, brokers, and professionals across Southern California means the conversation starts differently. Trust and respect on both sides of a deal matter.

Hot market, slow market, first-time buyer, investor, trust sale, or probate — we've handled it. We adapt and negotiate from experience.

In Their Words

What Clients Are Saying

"Eternally grateful to the best realtor in California, David Sanchez! David's considerable real estate knowledge and skills helped me sell my condo in Long Beach, CA while living on the East Coast in just 10 days after it was listed while also keeping the experience totally stress free. His expertise in all areas of Real Estate Sales including pricing, staging, advertising etc. made the process very pleasant and even got me more than my asking price! I highly recommend David Sanchez if you are looking for a worry and hassle free sale of your property."

Andrea C.

Long Beach Seller

"I had the pleasure of working with David Sanchez to sell my condo at Aqua Towers in Long Beach, California, and he truly is the best realtor I could have asked for! From start to finish, David was professional, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to ensure that I was always informed and comfortable with each step of the process. His expertise in the Long Beach market was evident as he helped me navigate everything with ease. He is also well-connected with the community and assisted in preparing my condo by contracting teams for painting, staging, photography, and videography. Thanks to his exceptional work, we got a great deal, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. If you want to buy or sell, I highly recommend David Sanchez!"

Kara Z.

Long Beach Seller

"I can't say enough good things about David. He made our entire home buying process as easy and stress free as possible. We felt completely taken care of all the way through our transaction because of his clear communication and laid back yet professional demeanor. David will go up to bat for you, stay responsive all the way through, and make your home buying dreams come true. Thank you, David, we couldn't be more grateful!"

Melissa R.

Long Beach Buyer

"Kimberly is an amazing realtor who did a fantastic job guiding us through our buying process in early 2021. Her professionalism, knowledge and extra attention to detail really sets her apart. Couldn't imagine anyone else being our agent, especially during this crazy market. Highly recommend!"

Serge B.

Orange County Buyer

"Kimberly helped my fiancé and I buy our first house. Had it not been for her support and guidance, I would have not gotten through the many melt downs during the home buying process. Home buying is super stressful, but it's so much easier with the right person to talk you through it and who is experienced in the field. I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell and use her again if we ever decide to buy another property in the future. Thank you, Kimberly!"
