"Robert Sousa is the absolute best! Robert patiently showed us around all the different potential areas listening closely to each of our priorities before he helped us eventually identify the right location. If we were ever unable to make time, he would go every week to each listing that came up and sent us narrated videos throughout the entire process. One thing we appreciate most about Robert is his integrity. There were several instances in which he could have encouraged us to put an offer on a place that was not quite right. Instead, he did exactly the opposite cautioning us with any potential concerns. He invested fully into our yearlong search like he would for his own home, always bringing his attention to detail, commitment, humor, and care. At every step along the way Robert had great advice and experience that we relied upon. He consistently went above and beyond helping us with every aspect of our transition and consistently made himself available on weekends and evenings. We will always refer friends and family to Robert and could not more highly recommend him!!." - Josh & Lauren

"Robert is only getting 5 stars, because 6 were not available. Here is the short version. He is amazing. Very professional, great to deal with, extremely competent and someone you can count on to do what he says. The longer version... my wife and I live in the Midwest but wanted to buy a home closer to our family. Upon some research, we met with Robert during our first trip to Paso and it was clear he was our guy. We knew no one and had to put our trust in someone we thought could help navigate this challenging purchase from afar. Opportunities came and went, but when the right one came up, Robert was on it and we ended up buying the house on his recommendation and video only. Once we finally made it out to see what we had purchased, we were absolutely delighted! It was our confidence in him that made this all possible. By the time we would have done all the due diligence, flown to California, etc, the deal would have likely closed with another home owner. "

"We chose Robert after meeting with a number of brokers. His deep knowledge of the local market and an eye toward value were critical throughout the process, from discovery to settlement. Robert took the time to understand the type of property and financial investment we sought. When we found the right house, Robert was able to lead the negotiation in a multiple bid situation. His expertise resulted in a smooth, swift and stress-free transaction.ble every step of the way. My fiancƩ and I genuinely think of Robert as a friend, and we'll miss working with him. We highly recommend him to anyone in search of a kind, knowledgeable, and dedicated realtor who truly cares about his clients." - William & Victoria

"Working with Robert as our realtor was truly a pleasure. From the start, he listened carefully to everything on our wish list and consistently showed us homes that aligned with our vision. Each time we viewed a property, Robert would offer insightful ideas on ways we could improve or personalize the space, helping us see the full potential in every home. He made the entire process feel easy and stress-free, always keeping us in the loop and making sure we felt comfortable every step of the way. My fiancƩ and I genuinely think of Robert as a friend, and we'll miss working with him. We highly recommend him to anyone in search of a kind, knowledgeable, and dedicated realtor who truly cares about his clients." - Lije & Loralyn

"Robert has been such a blessing for our family--twice! He first helped my mom and me buy a house back in 2020 when other realtors weren't willing to work with us due to our specific requirements. Robert didn't hesitate and made the whole process feel effortless. We couldn't have done it without him! Fast forward to 2024, and Robert came through for us again in an even more complicated situation. My husband and I were renting, but when the landlords decided to sell, my mom opted to sell her house and buy a new one with us. It was a complicated transaction, but Robert handled everything with such expertise. Every time we hit a snag, we just knew Robert had it covered. What makes him stand out even more is how easy he is to work with--so friendly and laid-back, but always on top of every detail. We trusted him completely and would urge anyone looking for a realtor to work with him. He's truly the best!" -Melanie

"Robert is AMAZING! Buying the home we wanted was contingent on selling our current one. Robert made us feel safe and secure throughout the entire process. I always felt like he had our back and was looking out for our best interests. We know he had other clients but he made us feel like we were his only client. If anyone ever asked for a Realtor I would only suggest Robert Sousa. Thank you Robert for everything! " - Conan

"We're so happy we hired Robert to help us sell our property in Paso Robles. He is so knowledgeable and thorough about all details of the transaction. He even read over the preliminary settlement statement from escrow and noticed they were withholding way more than they should have. From the day we met him until the day escrow closed was only 3 weeks and we received an offer well above asking price. And for the icing on the cake, Robert is an amateur pastry chef who rewarded us with this wonderful box of homemade pastries (using peaches from our tree). Hard to imagine a better experience." - Bob & Sandy

"Robert is a Real Estate professional I can recommend in every aspect. He is knowledgeable of the current market trends and provides well informed advice while preparing to sell a property. He is an active listener and will use creative solutions that help to make your listing a success. Robert is a great guy and understands that selling a property is often an emotional experience. Thanks for making my Real Estate journey a positive one." - Steve

"Just use Robert as your realtor. He saved us thousands of dollars and huge amounts of stress and made the process of selling our house clear, simple and stressless. Our story is that we were moving out of state and struggling to sell our house for over 3 months. We were thus forced to move 2600 miles away with our house still on the market. We were not sure what to do to get our house sold as we had literally no offers on a house that should have been sold in under 3 weeks. We decided to switch realtors and chose Robert and could not have been happier. His advice on what to do to make the house more marketable was spot on and minimal work. He handled all the improvements, showings, inspections, repairs and paperwork which was critical and appreciated with us living on the other side of the country. Once our house went on the market with him, we got 3 offers in 3 days and immediately sold the house. I really wish we had gone with him from the beginning as we would have saved likely 10-15 thousand dollars in carrying costs. If we ever end up buying or selling another house in the central coast, we will use him, and you should too." - Tim & Maggie

"AMAZING was the experience in working with Rob. We met Rob many years prior through mutual friends when he worked at another firm, he has kept contact with us and always sends updates about the properties we have including trends as well as listings and closings. Without ever having an official agreement or anything other then friendly banter he always was informative, knowable, professional, and funny as hell which is important because I'm a fairly frank person. He even helped my husband with an after sale question and when he learned we wanted to exchange all our proceeds he was helpful and gave his honest feedback and offered recommendations for other professionals NOT to mention an issue that came up during closing he went out of his way to put us in contact with a trusted tradesman and followed up for us. Just amazing and he has a true warmth you don't see often and his smile (which is very flattering) is always genuine. He's the real deal and I guess that's all I've got to say about that! Cheers!" - Ronnie & Ryan

"What can I say? We just love, Robert! As buyers new to the area, my husband and I wanted a professional with local knowledge who could guide us through our real estate purchase. From contracts to negotiation, we felt confident in Robert's depth of knowledge and skill in all areas of the transaction. He was always available to answer any questions or concerns we had, and gave us great advice when we needed it. He made complicated and tricky transactions effortless and took the stress away. If you're looking for an expert real estate professional, go with the best and call Robert! " - Sarah

"We went with Robert because of his five star raving reviews on yelp. This guy is like an old timer , I say that because of his wealth of wisdom and knowledge in a younger body .He truly made us feel comfortable and well represented because of how he handled the sale and dealt with any issues that came up." - Bill

"Robert Sousa did an outstanding job! He's the consummate professional, displaying knowledge, confidence, and dedication. At our first meeting Robert presented a concise plan to get our home sold quickly at a price that was appealing to us as well as potential buyers. Throughout the process Robert was a text message away to assist us. He helped us with decision making, staging, and scheduling around our busy lives. Within two days, with Robert's help, we had multiple offers, and sold our home for over asking price. We would definitely recommend Robert Sousa to help you with buying or selling your home! " - Richard

"We recently purchased our Forever Home in Paso Robles. On our search we met Robert Sousa at an open house for another home we were looking at. We found him to be extremely knowledgeable in the area and very transparent and honest with us regarding homes for sale in Paso Robles and what we were able to do with our specific situation. Robert listened to what we were looking for and asked questions that would help him find our perfect home, he communicated very well with us throughout the whole process. Once we found the home we really wanted Robert was very thorough and diligent with all details of the home and represented our best interest extremely well. He worked very well with the other realtor to ensure a smooth and fast escrow closing. Robert made himself very accessible to us and we always felt comfortable contacting him throughout the week. Our experience and relationship was Top Notch. We would highly recommend Robert to anyone who is searching for the right home for their situation. " - Rita

"I am the executor of my parents trust and needed to sell their house without a clue as what to do. I bought my own home but never sold one before. I went online and vetted several realtors before reading Robert Sousa's profile and decided to call him first He grew up on a dairy farm and I felt that anybody who had that back ground knew the value of hard work. As a kid, I spent several summers on my grandparents' farm in Nebraska, so I know a little something about what farming involves. I believed that anybody that had grown up getting up at 2:00 in the morning, every day of the week, had learned a discipline that would carry over to adult life. I was stressed out trying to do my due diligence and meeting Robert I knew I was making the right choice. He patiently explained the road ahead and basically held my hand over all the hurdles we faced. There were no surprises that we didn't master together. I put my faith in Robert and he proved himself worthy of that trust many times. Through Compass I secured a loan from Concierge Capital to make improvements on the house. Robert solicited bids from several contractors and got the best one for the job. After the work was done, he hired a home stager that did a fantastic job, and the house sold in 11 days. I can't say enough about Robert's professionalism. He went above and beyond my expectations and I am going to miss talking with him. More than just a great realtor, he became my friend." -Mike

ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…
"Robert is above and beyond. We were so lucky to work with Rob on both the sale of our own home and our search for a new home. He is thorough, strategic, professional, punctual and extremely detail-oriented. Our process was stress free which we can attribute to Rob's expertise in realty. He even helped us stage our home with plants from his own home when our house needed that extra touch for photographs and showings. Each sale was smooth, clean and we were kept up-to-date through every part of the process which is important when you're dealing with something as personal as a home sale and search! Speaking of personal, Robert always came bearing goodies for us with each visit going as far as to learn about my favorite bakeries in town and then making homemade baked goodies for me!! We couldn't recommend Robert enough." - Mary

ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…
"Robert was referred to me by an acquaintance for the sale of my Mother's home after her passing. His experience with dealing with Estate sales, he prepared an evaluation of the home, explaining all the aspects of the sale, a time line plan to have the house on the market for sale was just what my family needed to move forward in the sale process. Robert was always available for my questions, he kept me informed of every step of the documentation and sale process. I appreciated his honest advice. I highly recommend Robert and if ever in the future I need to sell or purchase a home I will be calling Robert. " -Lori

ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…
"Robert was amazing from start to finish in helping us sell our house. From the moment we met him, we knew we were in good hands. His experience guided us through the entire process, and his kind, gentle, and calm demeanor kept us grounded through the stresses of selling our home. With Robert's suggestions, and the help of the concierge interest free loan program, we made informed decisions on repairs and improvements that would get the most bang for the buck. We would highly recommend Robert and will use him again if the need arises." - Tina & Jean

"It is with great pleasure and confidence recommend Robert! He is the right person to have on your side for all your real estate needs. Robert's extensive market knowledge and connections allowed for the sale of our apartment in an expert manner, he is a skilled negotiator that you want on your side! Robert has everything under control, his cleaning crew and photographer make sure everything looks great in the presentation of your property on the market. He scheduled showings and constantly communicated with us about showings and guided us in choosing the best offer to exceed our expectations. He is a competent person. He is the right person to have on your side for all your real estate needs. He is not just an agent, he is an excellent human being who makes your goal of selling your property a reality in the shortest time possible. He thinks about the smallest detail and his commitment, passion and dedication demonstrate a job with excellence, quality and warmth. The best of the best, he is a 10! " - Yani

"Robert is a great agent to have on your team. His understanding of Paso Robles zoning rules was imperative in helping me find the perfect property. We patiently waited for the right property to come to market and when it did Robert was ready to jump into action. Being an out of town buyer, it was difficult to do the due diligence I would normally like. Robert was my boots on the ground FaceTiming me, sending me videos, pictures, and helping me understand the ins and outs of the property. The transaction couldn't have gone smoother and I couldn't be happier to have found my new home. Even after the purchase Robert has been a great resource connecting me with contractors and various local contacts. Thanks again Robert! " - James

"I just sold my second house with Robert. While the first one was a breeze, the second one will probably end up being the most difficult sell of my life due to buyers that were extremely difficult to work with. At all times Robert was professional, thorough and made sure I was aware of what my options were. I honestly believe that were it not for him, the sale would not have completed and I would have lost at least 10 thousand dollars in fees, carrying costs, etc. I am very impressed with what he achieved with this sale and will not hesitate to use him in the future. Do yourself a favor and to give him a call." - Tim

ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…
"Robert was our choice after interviewing several top agents in our area. He answered all of our questions, considered everything we had to say and was always available. Robert was knowledgeable and personal, and went out of his way to make sure that we got the best and most timely sale possible. He handled all of the details and kept us informed every step of the way, and we trusted him. We also liked him personally. Robert was easy to get along with, being both business-like and lighthearted at the same time. Selling your home is such a stressful time in one's life and we felt completely confident with Robert's leadership through the maze. We can truly say, "He took care of us"." - Carla

ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…
"Robert has helped us find a home and sell an existing one which we recently closed escrow on and he has made the process go very smoothly. He has always been responsive professional and at the same time he has been friendly, honest and upfront with any questions or concerns. He is very knowledgeable about the Central Coast and has always looked out for our best interest and did not show us properties that were not the right fit. We highly recommend Robert for all your Real Estate needs!"

"When my fiancĆ© and I decided to purchase our first home we had no idea where to start. One thing we did know is that choosing the right realtor would be vitally important to helping us along through the process. Everyone seems to know a realtor and we were given numerous suggestions. My fiancĆ© and I did our research and none of the suggested realtors stood out to us. However, one name that continued to pop up was Robert Sousa. We were anxious about the entire process but after reading his prior reviews and hearing testimonials from previous clients, we both agreed we wanted to give Robert a shot. From the very first meeting we were impressed with Robert and our anxiety subsided. He quickly displayed his vast knowledge and was able to outline the entire process in terms that were easy to understand. He made us comfortable with the entire process and we decided to set up showings with him shortly thereafter. While viewing homes, Robert was there to answer any and all questions we had. He was very candid about things we should be watchful of in general and was able to point things out that we needed to be aware of on specific homes. He also was very perceptive of our likes and dislikes and knew when it was time to move along to the next house. He did all of this while still providing us with ample space to talk about the houses in private. It became clear that he truly cares about his clientsā€™ best interests and wanted to get us into the best home for us. After viewing numerous houses there was one home in particular that really caught our eye and Robert seemed to know it too before we said anything to him. We decided we wanted to move forward and had many, many questions along the way. Robert was always able to make time for our questions with prompt responses. His knowledge during the offer/counter-offer time period was invaluable as was his advice during the entire escrow process. After successfully closing on our house a few months ago and having some time to settle in and reflect, we can honestly say that as first time home buyers we could not have been more pleased with our decision to trust Robert with our real estate needs. If anyone is looking for a realtor, we cannot suggest anyone more highly than Robert Sousa.E"

About Robert

Youā€™d never know that Robert is an absolute legend in the kitchen. A French Cuisine devotee, his flawlessly orchestrated meals are the ultimate expression of love for friends and family. Not surprisingly, he extends the same level of care to his real estate clients. Thorough in his planning and quick to combine all the right ingredients, heā€™s renowned for bringing the very same heat to the negotiation table.

Raised on a dairy farm in the San Joaquin Valley, the bedrock of Robertā€™s beliefs has always been rooted in his fatherā€™s earliest teachings. Refreshingly genuine, the ever-thoughtful realtor prides himself on both his tireless work ethic and being a man of his word. Patient, resourceful, and exceedingly trustworthy, Robert is equipped with the reliable references and expert recommendations that only fifteen plus years in the industry can provide.

Buying or selling a property is never without emotion. Robert knows that better than most. Which is why he guides the process with honest, direct communication every step of the way. He knows that real estate transactions are multifaceted affairs that must be approached from a variety of different angles, and he works diligently to create solutions before problems arise. Coupling vast contract knowledge with unparalleled negotiation skills, youā€™d be hard pressed to find a more qualified realtor. I think youā€™ll find his results speak for themselves.

Residing in east Paso Robles with his husband, John, the novice fixer-uppers have extensively renovated a charming old home that sits on a sprawling plot of land. Surrounded by rolling hills and ancient oaks, weekends are spent gardening in the yard, tending to their chickens, and playing with their Vizsla rescue pups, Jordy and Bella. If youā€™re lucky, they may just invite you over for one of Robertā€™s legendary dinners. Fingers crossed.
