"Steve Walsh and staff were incredible. We have been looking for a property for over a year. Steve was very patient with us over the process. He was very knowledgeable on the housing market. Anytime we had a question he answered the phone or called right back. When we finally found a property this past March, he walked us through the process with professionalism. We had a lot of questions. But, if he didn’t know the answer, there weren’t many he would ask someone who could answer it. I would recommend him to anyone that is looking for a property. Not only was he our agent, he is now our Irish friend."
★★★★★
"This is the second time I’ve had the privilege of working with Steve. His advice and guidance throughout the entire process was outstanding. He has excellent communication and is easy to talk with. I was recently widowed so this sale was especially emotional and difficult. His guidance and support were a tremendous comfort Plus I got the price I was hoping for. I would highly recommend Steve and would definitely use his services again."
★★★★★
"Steve was the best agent we could have asked to be on our side in selling our home. In a high-demand market, we were able to find a buyer OFF-market to avoid the ZOO of buyers that would come knocking at our door. Steve negotiated a great price, quick close of escrow & impressive conditions. Steve handled any hiccups (on the buyers side) with the utmost professionalism. It was such a relief to know he was on our side, and had our back. We would trust any friend or family member to utilize Steve as their real estate professional! "
★★★★★
"Steve knows the nuances of Newport Beach and all its distinct neighborhoods like nobody else. He also has a great team behind him. My wife and I were looking for something very specific and rare to come to market. Steve was able to find exactly the type of property we were looking for and due to his deep relationships, experience, and expertise we were the successful party. He is a pure professional, courteous, and responsive. Couldn't ask for anything else."
★★★★★
"Stephen Walsh is an exceptional real estate agent who not only meets but surpasses all expectations. His professionalism, market expertise, and commitment to his clients make him an outstanding figure in the industry. What truly sets Steve apart is his ethical compass (pun intended...lol), which guides every aspect of his business. He operates with the highest ethical standards, ensuring that clients receive honest advice and accurate information. This level of integrity creates a level of trust that is truly exceptional. In sum, If you're seeking an agent who will guide you through the complexities of real estate with expertise and integrity, Stephen Walsh is the agent to choose!!!"
★★★★★
"Stephen’s strengths in marketing and negotiation allowed him to present multiple offers in just 35 days. In the luxury market where homes can be on the market, in our area, for over 200 days this was a great result for my family. We were able to move onto the next chapter without the stress of wondering when our home would sell. Stephen negotiated an all cash, non-contingent offer with a fifteen-day escrow. I highly recommend Stephen as a real estate advisor that will think outside the box to achieve amazing results."
★★★★★
"Steve, as I call him, was very professional and helpful throughout the whole process of getting my house listed and SOLD. My house was on the market for 1 year, with 3 different Listing Agents. On Feb 5th, 2019 I re-listed with Steve and within a couple of weeks I got multiple offers. We accepted the best offer and opened escrow immediately. I highly recommend Steve Walsh to anyone.... You will not be disappointed."
★★★★★
"I had a wonderful experience working with Steve to buy a home in Southern California. Coming from out of the area, I needed an expert to help compare various towns and match our housing needs – and Steve delivered. I worked with him for 18 months and he was consistently there to advise and guide. He is truly interested in finding the best for his clients and building long-term relationships. I would give Steve my highest recommendation."
★★★★★
"We have never dealt with a more professional and comfortable agent! Stephen is truly the best!! We quickly became friends and he always stays in touch. I would highly recommend him. [We were] so impressed by his services, we now have a forever friend and agent in him. Stephen listens to your needs and makes sure you get exactly what you want. We can’t thank him enough for making our transactions easy and quick. He truly cares."
★★★★★
"Before listing with Steve, we had our Newport Beach home on the market with another agent for 60 days, with zero offers. After that listing expired, we immediately engaged Steve who recommended we place the floors, repaint the interior, do a light landscape update, and stage the home. He helped facilitate [the work…] so the listing would look new and fresh. Within 6 days, we had multiple offers on the table… The escrow process definitely had its challenges but Steve remained focused to put us in the best position to get it closed. We really appreciate the time, effort and professional Steve displayed throughout the process and couldn’t be happier with the results."
★★★★★
"Steve is amazing. He is responsive, professional, and extremely good at what he does. He has terrific instincts, an incredible work ethic, and the people skills to work with difficult or inexperienced agents on the other side. He also doesn't mind doing the heavy lifting when the other agent drops the ball or is unreasonable. Steve was with us every step of the way - he even showed up and weighed in when our landscaper came to do some backyard prep-work for the sale! I can't say enough good things about Steve and really appreciate all the hard work, late nights, early mornings, and weekends he put in for us. Oh - and he's just an incredibly nice guy on top of it all."
★★★★★
"Steve was relentless in his approach to selling our property. We had previously been on the market for over 300 days with only one offer. Steve brought in multiple offers within the first few weeks of listing the property and was able to close the deal in under 90 days [from list date]. His professional, intelligent approach to sales helped us achieve our goals and move forward with other investment opportunities."
★★★★★
"When we found our dream home, Stephen helped us secure it by getting our current home ready for sale in a timely manner. He helped us find contractors for renovation, a stager to get the home show ready, and worked with our buyers to give us more time. Stephen was friendly, professional and knowledgeable. We really enjoyed working with him and feel he was vital in making our dreams come true "
★★★★★
"I trusted Steve to sell my home in San Clemente, CA…The house had brought numerous hurdles throughout the sale, and Steve rose to the challenge. From COVID, to a neighborhood nuisance, to nearby construction – Steve was able to navigate [the challenges] with a positive forward-thinking attitude. Use Steve and his team – and don’t forget to ask about their Compass Concierge program which got my project across the finish line! "
