" Please let this letter service as 5 Star recommendation for Robert Chestnut. We engaged Robert in October 2022 for the sale of our property after our mother had passed away the previous August. Robert immediately jumped into action guiding us as to what needed to be done to the house before putting it on the market. He is driven to do a great job for clients always focused on getting the best possible sales price. After a few months of getting the house ready he carefully gauged the market and determined the very best time to put the house on the MLS. I am pleased to say that with a very successful open house on the very first weekend we got an amazing offer and closed in 10 days. This was absolutely due to Robert’s efforts to time the market and knowing the other houses we were competing against. In addition, Robert has very deep knowledge regarding handling offers and working with them to get the best price. It also helped that Robert has relationships with many of the local agents. I am speaking for my family when I say I would highly recommend Robert to anyone selling or purchasing a property. His pleasant personality and driven work attitude all add up to a great agent in every respect. We are incredibly pleased. "-Daniel A., Seller

" Robert is the real estate agent you wish you had. Robert helped us secure our dream place in December of 2022. What makes him unique is a number of traits that made this process a joy:He knows Santa Cruz inside and out, local knowledge you can rely on.He goes above and beyond. In every way. He checked countless times on the house while we were going through the negotiation process. It rained, he went there to check if and where water might have come in. There were questions about permits, he went to the city to meet with the associates there to get more insight. He organized various contractor visits to get assessments and quotes for work that needs to be done, from contractors he trusts – and multiple sources on top of that. And he was there to meet with them. He just managed all that for us.He was a great partner in the negotiations with the seller which weren’t easy, to say the least, but we ended up getting our dream place for a fair price.Best of all: once the deal was signed, he didn’t consider his job to be done. He is still there to this day helping us get started and getting the place ready which includes that we have all the quotes and contacts for contractors to get the work needed done thanks to his organizing this earlier.I can wholeheartedly recommend Robert to anyone looking to buy a property in the Santa Cruz or Monterey Counties."-Jan K., Buyer
