Scott and his team with Phillip and Catalina did an excellent job assisting me with the sale of my home. They stage my home beautifully and I was quite happy with the final result at $50,000 over asking price. Scott and Phillip have been my friends for over 20 years and I could always know that any information or help I needed they would be happy to help me with it. I could not have asked for a better team to represent me.
Lane helped us find and purchase our first home and was absolutely amazing to work with! He was available 24/7; from the start of attending numerous showings with us, until the end of escrow, and even after, he helped us find contacts for various resources. Lane was thorough, patient, extremely knowledgeable, and guided us along each step of the way in the process. If you have been searching for a home in this insane market, I’m sure you are aware of how competitive it is. I don’t think we would have found our perfect home without Lane’s expertise, knowledge of real estate, and guidance. I have already recommended Lane to all of my friends and family for their real estate needs. If you’re looking for 5 star service and an extremely knowledgeable agent, Lane is the one to reach out to without a doubt! Thank you so much, Lane for an incredible home purchase experience!
Scott and Philip have been fantastic over the years. They really know the business, their knowledge and professionalism are topnotch. They always have my best interest at heart. I can not say enough about these guys.
Lane Stone was extremely knowledgeable, professional, respectful and responsive. He handled the sale of my recently deceased mother’s home with compassion and expertise. This was the best real estate experience I’ve had. On top of all of that he priced it perfectly which yielded a price that exceeded our expectations.
Lane is one of the best real estate agents if not THE best real estate agent I have ever worked with. He is very quick to respond, I totally trust his judgement, especially with the area I was looking for and not familiar with. He is very personable and truly fights to get you the property that you want. There were times I could not make it to the open house and he was able to video or FaceTime and explain everything the good and the bad. He is very honest and very picky to give the client the best opportunity possible. I truly look forward in working with him again I hope soon in the future. You will not go wrong with working with Lane.
The Sackin team are my go to real estate consultants/agents. Anytime I’m considering a purchase, they are who I contact! Knowledgeable courteous and capable!They are the team to use for real estate transactions. What more can I say their service is outstanding!
Needing to sell a family home after losing a loved one can be difficult. Philip was by our side navigating us through each challenge. His knowledge in the market and support was priceless. We are so thankful for his experience and efficiency in helping us prepare the house for listing. Our family was so happy on the upgrades and staging of the home. We were able to sell the home quickly for a great price. Thank you Philip for your professionalism and dedication to helping us.
Scott and his team are very knowledgeable & professional. They handled all that needed to be done and sold our property in less than 2 weeks for even more than our asking price! We are very happy with the entire process and will definitely call them with any future real estate matters😁
The Sackin-Stone Team is professional, credible, and always there for their customers. Highly recommend this amazing team!!! They are truly the best in the industry!
Phillip Talbert handled the sale of our townhome by responding quickly to our questions for a quick sale. Yes, it was a hot market, but we wanted to sell quickly and he provided professionals to help us get ready. He brought 10 offers to us in just a few days, and helped us negotiate that unique situation with an ethical, professional approach. He and the team make a strong commitment to our well-being during the pandemic and for the close of the sale. You can trust Phillip and the Sackin-Stone Team to put you first.
Lane Stone and Scott Sackin did an excellent job from start to finish and then some. The Sackin-Stone Team sold my moms house in a matter of weeks. The house required extensive preparations, and I live too far away to have managed that personally. The result was fantastic, beyond expectations. I felt almost like an observer. I recommend the Sackin-Stone Team without reservation.
We recently had the pleasure of working with Philip during the sale of a family home. Needing to sell a house due to the loss of a loved one could be a very trying time. He was thorough and professional and great to work with. He is very detail oriented and was a perfect fit for our family. Philip is a true professional and during negotiations we always felt like he had our best interest in mind. We have and will continue to recommend him to all of our family and friends.
I have been doing business with Lane Stone for several years starting back in 2016 when we were looking to purchase our first family home, eventually renting and doing the property management, and lastly, when we recently sold in 2020. To say that Lane has been phenomenal to work with would be an understatement. He has always proved to be extremely hard working, courteous, professional, and more than willing to go above and beyond to help.No matter what situation we were faced with (finding tenants, helping with repairs, home sale preparation, etc), we always genuinely felt that Lane had our best interests in mind and he always presented us with amazing options so we knew we were always making the right decision no matter the situation.Although my wife at the time we purchased our home and I are no longer together, we both look back on our experiences with Lane with overwhelmingly fond memories. He truly went above and beyond for our family and vastly exceeded any pre-existing expectations I had in my mind regarding real estate agents. I hope I have the opportunity to work with Lane in the future and strongly recommend him for anyone looking to purchase a home in the Orange County area.Thanks again, Lane for all that you have done for our family!
I was looking to purchase a home in Huntington Beach and Phillip could not have made that any easier. I was generally shopping on my own without a realtor seeing houses with the listing agents. I had seen a house before with Phillip and I was impressed with his knowledge of the area and his professionalism. I ended up seeing a second house which Phillips team had listed and decided to make an offer. Phillip represented me throughout my purchase and I cant imagine the process going smoother. People often speak of home buying as a very stressful process, but the team at Sackin-Stone could not have made it any easier. He provided me with a reference to an excellent mortgage company, inspectors, appraisers, etc. I didnt have to call around and jump through hoops to set up all the steps required to purchase a home, he just provided me with each stepping stone as it came so that my path couldnt be simpler. Its a testament to their experience and customer care that they are able to make all of this so easy for me as a buyer.If I had questions Phillip was always available to answer them and even now after purchase I am still able to call him and ask questions or help from him. The team goes above and beyond to ensure the purchase is simple and that the sellers and I were happy with the transaction. Excellent service, excellent quality, excellent value. I highly recommend the Sackin-Stone team and Phillip as a realtor. It was the perfect home buying experience and I couldnt be happier with the home I have purchased.
I appreciate the professionalism and pride Scott takes I. Conducting business. He has always had the ability to “pivot” with the times, even during times like COVID 2020! I have conducted several business transactions with Scott and can still call on him for real estate questions. He has been a life saver!!
I have been friends with Scott and Philip for nearly forty years and have always been impressed by their ability to know when and how to offer meaningful advice. Because I have lived in my current Northern California home for over thirty-five years, I have not yet had the personal opportunity to utilize their realtor services involving my own property. However, when it came time to put my Moms home on the market, they were very helpful with their advice and referral of another realtor who represented the area where my Mom had lived. Hence, a difficult situation was quickly turned into a streamlined process. If you are searching for la creme de la cream, youll soon be thanking yourself if you went with the Sackinstone Team.
I cant say enough about how incredible Scott, Philip, and the whole Sackin-Stone Team are! They are the most kind, hard working and genuine people & you can trust that they will do everything they can to support you! The moment you start looking for a home you can be assured theyll do everything they can to help you find the perfect fit, but even better youll be considered part of their family long after! I purchased my first home with Sackin-Stone more than 25 years ago, and anytime Ive needed to buy or sell Scott has been my go to guy! Scott and Philip are amazing real estate agents and have become amazing friends!
Knowing first hand how hard these guys work to make buying or selling a breeze for all parties, warrants my recommendation. I have sent several friends to Sackin-Stone, and all have been impressed with how attentive they are to every detail and how expertly they deal with complications that may arise. Rest assured if you list or buy with them.
I cant say enough nice things about Lane Stone and team. Lane helped us sell our house for the top dollar we could get, and helped us get another house within a few months! Even during this trying time of covid, Lane was always positive and optimistic, which really helped us throughout the entire process. It seemed like he was our own personal real estate agent because he was always available to answer any questions that we had as well as see houses on a moments notice. If you are lucky enough to work with Lane and his team, do it! You will not regret it.
Lane was an absolute pleasure to work with! It is no easy task to show listings during a pandemic, however, Lane was incredible and helped make the home buying process safe and easy. He was also very accommodating to our schedule being that we have a newborn (double whammy). His attention to detail with every home reassured my husband and I that we were in the best hands. Lane, we cannot thank you enough for how painless you made our first home buying experience. We will be recommending you for both buying and selling to everyone we know.
Lane Stone is amazing and showed a lot of professionalism. Buying a house is extremely stressful and he made the process easy and smooth. I would highly recommend him as your realtor! You wont regret it!
Lane Stone handled the sale of a condo for us and we were very pleased with all his time and effort. We would highly recommend him to anyone needing to buy or sell a property.
My husband and I had decided that during the current environment it would be a good time to sell our home of 20 years but regretting the hassle that couples go through during the process of selling or buying a home. Who to call? Scott Sackin was a friend of ours and we knew he was in real estate so we contacted him. Scott showed up with his partner Phillip Talbert. Little did we know that the Sackin / Stone team would take out all the stress and headache of selling our home. They literally never left our side. They were there to explain all the paperwork and to make sure all signatures were signed correctly. They took control of the staging of our home for the best showing without making it impossible to live in. They helped us coordinate all inspections and necessary repairs that needed to be finished in a timely manner so escrow could close sooner. Our first weekend we had multiple offers and several over our asking price. Our escrow closed in 30 days. All this was accomplished without ever feeling any pressure from either one of them. They were always patient and there to answer any of our questions or concerns.We are really happy and impressed with the Sackin and Stone Team and highly recommend to anyone thinking of selling or buying a home. We are sure you will have a great experience and success as we did.Gail and Dennis Collier
Lane Stone was so great to work with! It didnt take us long to find a fantastic property and he was on top of it from the moment my real estate agent in Colorado put me in contact with him! He was super knowledgeable and always just a text, email, or phone call away! He gives 100% and is very professional. Highly recommend!
Ive worked with many realtors and real estate teams throughout my 30+ years in the flooring business and I must say that this group is at the top in terms of professionalism. Not only are they knowledgeable about the real estate market and orange county experts, they are up-to-date on color and style trends. I love working with the Sackin-Stone Team and always look forward to taking their calls.
Thanks for hosting the 2021 Shredding Day in HB and for providing us the opportunity to clear out some of our ancient paperwork! It was so great to see everyone again and we look forward to working with you (our #1 Real Estate Team) in the future!!
Scott and Philip have not only been friends for the last 30 years, but they have been my undisputed go to guys for everything Real Estate. Although they dont serve my local suburban San Francisco area, when my husband and I were going to purchase our first home, we counted on their expertise to find us just the right Realtor who would work with the same passion and dedication they give each client. They delivered on that promise, as we have loved our home for over 25 years.Now as we look to purchase a second home in Californias Sierra Foothills we are relying on them once again.Its comforting to know that no matter where we want to move, Scott and Philip will do all the leg work and connect us with the most qualified Realtor in our desired area.We wouldnt make any move without consulting them!
Fantastic videos that are full of great information!
We have done (2) real-estate transactions with the Sackin Stone team and they both where flawless! They are easy to work with I would Highly recommend Lane Stone.
My husband and I were buying our first home in a tough market and it was due to Lanes responsiveness, knowledge and professionalism that we were able to get our offer accepted and close escrow. It was also a pleasure to work with Lane through such an exciting but stressful process of buying our first home. His whole team at Sackin-Stone is great too! I recommended him immediately to my friend and coworker, will continue to recommend him to my friends and family and intend to use him on any other sells/purchases we have in our future.
This group cares about their clients. Professional, communicative and very easy to work together with. Would recommend over any other real estate team in the area. Would give 10 stars if we could!!
I originally found Lane through a cold email interview via HomeLight. He responded very quickly, very thoroughly, and gave me the contacts of previous buyers that I could call. Then after meeting him in person the first time the most noticeable attribute is that he has a very calm and positive demeanor that matched mine. I am a first time homeowner and I felt a lot more confident in his hands.
Lane is the best! Can not get anybody better to help you buy a house. Even helped me - ME, of all people - buy a house. I can’t believe it either! He’s just great. 10/10 recommend.
I worked with Lane and Scott to sell my condo. They are both highly professional and knowledgeable. They did a very thorough pricing analysis for my neighborhood. They also arranged to have my condo staged to improve the presentation. Within a few days of listing, I received a full price offer. Lane and Scott were always timely, transparent, and courteous with the responses to my questions. They went above and beyond.. even helping me sort out the logistics for moving out. During the whole process, I felt that I was in capable hands. I am very happy with the service that they (and their office staff) provided.
Lane and his Team sold my Dads condo in Huntington Beach, CA and did a phenomenal job. Received an offer in days and over asking! Trust the Sackin-Stone Team to always deliver.
After looking for five long and exhausting years, Lane Stone found exactly the home we wanted, which was no easy task for him. We will forever be grateful to Sackin and Stone for taking such wonderful care of my Husband and I.It has been several months and to this day Lane Stone is still available to take our calls and answer our questions. I highly recommend this real estate Company., it was the best decision we ever made.
Just the best. Philip was tremendously kind and helpful to us when buying our house 10 years ago, and the entire team has always been in contact and available for questions about valued upgrades, service providers, and general real estate market questions. Totally service-oriented.
Lane Stone is one of the best in the business. Him and his team are known for selling your property fast but also getting you the top dollar and often times more than the list price. They do this by marketing the heck out of your property as well as beautifully staging the property so that you get multiple offers. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
Scott is a wonderful agent! He and his team made our house look like a million dollars and helped it to sell for much more than the asking price!Thanks again!
Lane recently helped us purchase our home (During the COVID-19 shut down) and I cant say enough good things about our experience with him both as a person and as a professional. He is extremely patient and did not hesitate to show us any properties we wanted to view and there was never any pressure to make any decisions. He responded to our questions, pointed out everything he thought we needed to consider (even things that potentially could have made us back out of the deal). He even went ahead, requested and got us credits we didnt think we had a chance to get, which helped lower our closing costs. The mortgage broker he recommended was just as professional and a pleasure to work with. There were no surprises and given everything else going on, this was as seamless an experience as home purchasing can get even at the best of times. We love our new home and neighborhood. I recommend Lane as a first choice to anyone considering purchasing a home.
One of the best real estate agencies in Southern California.
We had the pleasure of working with Scott and Lane for the second time. Lane, Scott, and Catalina have been an incredible team to work with. They are responsible, professional, and have been there every step of the way to ensure a smooth transaction all while providing amazing customer service. Even after the transaction is complete, they are always available to answer any questions. Thank you to the Sackin-Stone team for your amazing expertise and service!
Lane & Scott were really helpful while we were buying our new home. They are knowledgable, responsive, dependable, and friendly. Lane was always on top of home showings, even at inconvenient times when work schedules didnt permit. When we found a home that we liked, Scott advised us on a game plan for submitting an offer based on market data and his long record of working in the area. Once our offer was accepted, Lane worked diligently to find us the documentation that we requested about the home (e.g. warranties, purchase records) so that we could be confident about the purchase. During the walk-through, he also made sure to point out issues that should be addressed once we own the house. Scott even made sure to get our home warranty upgraded to cover items not typically covered by most policies. Thanks to Lane and Scott we were confident we were making a good purchase. Weve been really happy in our new home and we would definitely do business with them again.
There is so much I want to say but I will try my best to keep it short. If you are EVER looking for a Realtor then this firm is where you need to go and ask for Lane Stone. He is, in my book, The MVP . My wife and I would not have found our DREAM Home without his help and thanks to Lane we have our very own Home Sweet home. He is amazing at what he does and knows how to get the job done. Trust me when I say this, if Lane Stone cant help you find your Home then no one can. We cant thank him enough for everything he did for us but Lane please know we have you to thank.
Lane is the man! Such a wealth of knowledge in such a young guy. His marketing techniques are top notch and cutting edge. I even pick his brain quite often about my own business for marketing, not just real estate trends. I havent even gotten a house yet through Lane, but there is now way Im going to anyone else but him. Keep crushing it Lane! More importantly, keep up the level of professionalism that you bring to your industry. Im still saving for my dream home, dont worry!
The Sackin Stone team became part of our family when we bought our home 5 years ago and again as we are ready to sell in 2020. The entire team works together to create the best possible experience. Most especially, they are treating our $500,000 listing with same care and attention as they do a million dollar listing. I trust them without reservation and am so grateful they are our realtor family.
My family has worked with Scott and Catalina for many years, so when it came time to sell our home, there was no question who we would hire. The Sackin-Stone team provided us with local market expertise, exceptional customer service, and a vast network of resources. We listed the home right before it was declared a national emergency, and the team managed to get us an amazing offer in an untested, new market environment. We look forward to working with Sackin-Stone again in the future!
Gary and his team exceeded all of my expectations. He had the perfect answer to all of my questions and is very knowledgeable about the home buying process. He had great communication with us throughout the whole process and kept us up to date about everything. I highly recommend Gary and his team.
We had the pleasure of working with Lane Stone as our realtor. Working with Lane was more like a partnership; he truly listened, understood what we were looking for in a realtor, and our expectations for selling our home. In turn, we respected his knowledge of the current real estate market, timelines, marketing, pricing, etc. We started off with the same goal and Lane successfully navigated us through to the end, which was a quick sale with multiple offers and a selling price over asking. I would be remiss if I didnt mention the Sackin-Stone team. Everyone we came into contact with was friendly, warm and professional. Calls, emails and texts were quickly responded to, we were never left waiting for answers, there was no frustration, just smooth sailing! We couldnt be more pleased and will definitely partner with Lane and his team again should the opportunity arise.
Best experience selling my place. I have owned many properties and this is my second sales with Alan’s. As always it’s always quick, firm and accurate. Can’t wait to have to sell again!
First time home buyer! Lane Stone and his team are by far some of the easiest and most honest realtors you can have in your corner. Purchasing my first place in a well established Orange County city with a difficult budget to work with I thought would be a daunting task at hand for Lane and his team, but he made it so smooth and easy it didn’t even feel like a challenge. Their knowledge of the market and the competition makes them stand out amongst the rest. Lane Stone is the realtor I am more than happy to use for the rest of my life. I highly recommend this team for any realtor needs!PS: A little cherry on top...Lane and his team have some really awesome events throughout the year such as their annual client appreciation party, paper shredding event, movie nights and more!
Gary was nothing short of extraordinary in every step of our home-buying process. He knows Huntington Beach inside and out, and his creative negotiating skills helped us avoid a bidding war and score the home of our dreams! He dropped everything to show us the home within hours of listing and process a same-day offer. He was also extremely attentive and professional throughout the escrow period. He kept us updated at every step, checked in often to make sure we were on track, and went above and beyond to make sure all of our questions were addressed. In addition to his expertise, he is also honest, hilarious and fun to work with! For all of this, we couldn’t more highly recommend Gary. I am certain that we would not be living in our dream home right now if it weren’t for him. If you are looking to buy a home, look no further than Gary Elvidge to accomplish that. Thank you Gary!!!
Lane Stone is a true pleasure to work with. Professional, honest, smart, hard working and caring. His communication and negotiating skills are stellar.He was able to close on the sale of my triplex after generating a couple of offers.I only wish i had found him sooner. He is highly recommended.
Lane Stone did an amazing job in helping me purchase my first home! He was a true professional at all times during the process. Anytime that I had a question, he either had the answer or would track it down for me. Lane never made me feel pressured or rushed (which was a big item for me) because of my busy schedule. He always made himself available with my last minute viewing requests. The entire purchasing process went very smoothly and I highly recommend Lane for any future real estate needs!
It is rare to find a team like this. The idea of making probably the largest investment of your lifetime can be really frightening - buying a home is a huge step. Lane and the team at Sackin-Stone could not be better armed to help. They are family oriented, focused, experienced, dedicated, and 100% focused on YOU. Whether you are buying or selling, they are absolutely the first call you should make and I couldnt recommend them highly enough.
I am a First time home buyer and I contacted Sackin Stone team to buy a my house. The process was so easy and stress free. I highly recommend using their team for all your real estate needs in Huntington Beach!
The Sackin-Stone team is amazing. They made the overly complicated home buying process simple and guided me every step of the way. Highly recommended!
Bought our home through Sackin-Stone and the service was professional and friendly. Would send family and friends to them in the future.BB
Buying property can be scary and overwhelming in the beginning. Lane Stone made the process so much easier and comforted me throughout. He answered questions at all hours of the day and went above and beyond to help me. I could not have gone through this process without him.
Wow, where do we start?! Finding a home was always in the back of our minds, but just the thought of the entire process sounded exhausting and stressful. And then we had Gary Elvidge help us, and WOW did he make everything so easy for us! He provided us with exceptional service, dedication, and hard work. From driving us to view multiple houses to checking in with us daily - we quickly found our dream home! From the minute our sellers accepted our offer, Gary and his Team made going through escrow a breeze! That was most likely due to excellent communication - (with us being first time homebuyers) he explained exactly how escrow works, the entire process step by step, what to expect, and what we needed to provide. Our 30 days in escrow went by fast, and before we knew it, we had the keys in our hands! Whether you’re a first time homebuyer or an experienced homebuyer, we highly recommend you have Gary help you! I know for a fact we only found our forever home because of him.
The team at Sackin/Stone did an amazing job. The Sackin team were good listeners and problem-solvers that got quick, desired, results. Communication was also top notch. I met with several potential agents. The team was most impressive regarding designing an approach that fit my needs. Our transaction was particularly challenging because of its nature and the property itself. The team delivered on all counts.If you are thinking about hiring someone, you should call the Sackin-Stone team and see for yourself if they listen and problem-solve better than the competition. They really stand behind their commitments. It was an absolute pleasure to work with them. The team approach is a true benefit. It is like having two agents that are both accountable. All their folks from escrow, title, home repair, termite, inspection, etc were all fantastic as well.
I connected with the Sackin-Stone Real Estate team through a friend. They came highly recommended as a company that would go above and beyond any expectations that a buyer/seller would have. As it turned out it was all absolutely true! Scott Sackin and Philip Talbert were the consummate professionals. They are seasoned veterans of the real estate industry and were an absolute joy to work with on both buying our new home and selling the old one. They pay attention to the clients needs and desires and were never too busy to answer any and all questions we had. They offered sound and solid advice on how to enhance our home to attract potential buyers. They thoroughly explained everything at each step, which alleviated the anxiety we might have had.The entire buying and selling process was made so easy for us due to their vast experience and professionalism. Scott and Philip are not your average real estate agents. They are top of the line. They dont come any better than this team. Not to forget their invaluable right hand office coordinator Catalina, who is at the top of her game along with her cheery personality. If you are looking to buy/sell a home I highly recommend Sackin-Stone. You will not be disappointed.Tim in Huntington Beach
The Sackin-Stone team is by far the best real estate team in Orange County. I personally have worked with Lane and have referred friends to him. He is professional, creative and easy to work with. His knowledge of real estate and the market surpasses many other realtors that I have met or interviewed in the area. Thanks Lane and the Sackin Stone Team!
Lane and his team exceeded all of my expectations and more during these last few months. As a night nurse my schedule is not typical and no matter the day or time Lane was always responding to my requests and scheduling showings on short notice. As a first time home buyer, Lane never made me feel rushed and was extremely patient with me through this process, making sure that I was completely satisfied with my decisions and fully understood everything along the way. I was also introduced to two other members of his team, Gary and Stipe, both of which provided the same positive and professional experience! The Sackin-Stone team made this process fun, exciting, and educational and I would HIGHLY recommend them for new and experienced buyers! Thank you Lane for making this often stressful and frustrating experience a very smooth one for me and for helping me find/purchase such an amazing first home!
Gary Elvidge and the rest of the Sackin-Stone Team are best in class when it comes to handling the selling and purchasing of your home. This was the second time my wife and I have had the pleasure of working with Gary and everything went off without a hitch. Sackin-Stone truly works as a rock-solid team. They were with us every step of the way and took something that would normally be stressful and made it easy. #GoSackinStone
