We can’t say enough great things about Alex! We knew from the moment he sat down with us to explain his strategy for selling our home that we had found someone who was eager to help us realize our goals. Not only did he meet our expectations, he far exceeded them! His strategy proved to be the best way to realize our home’s full equity potential. He had wonderful suggestions for how we could get tremendous return on investment with just a few inexpensive upgrades to attract buyers. His use of technology to advertise, list, and show our house coupled with his expert photography generated a massive amount of interest in our home in a very short time. He had a specific timeline in mind for our sale, and he stuck to it to the letter. As part of his strategy, this timeline helped “tease” the market with a “come see it while it lasts” temperament. When it came fine to negotiating with buyers, Alex was a pit bull—our pit bull. He represented us for our best interests…period. He wouldn’t let any potential buyer’s agent take advantage of us just to make the sale. We appreciated having him in our corner for this reason, and it engendered remarkable trust. The end result, we sold our house for almost 20% above asking! Thank you, Alex!!!

Choosing a Realtor to buy and sell a house is such a huge decision, and we are so happy that we were able to work with Alex Smith for our recent home sale and purchase.Alex did a fantastic job selling our house! His marketing skills, combined with his use of technology to show a home are incredible. From recommending ways to clear out clutter to improving our curb appeal, Alex helped us coordinate everything our house needed before we put it up for sale. He made sure the photos, both 2D and 3D, made our house look fantastic. The highlight of the process was the live 3D tour of the house where he walked through the house with a 3D camera (so prospective buyers could see the house from every angle) describing all the wonderful features of the house.Alex understood the local market and how our property compared to other properties in the area; and even more importantly, he explained the real estate trends that were driving prices throughout the South Bay. Based on his local knowledge and market research, he recommended an asking price that would generate significant interest from potential buyers.His marketing and knowledge really paid off - our listing looked amazing, and our house was under contract after the first weekend. Alex took the time to explain each offer, including the terms, and helped us feel confident about our decision. We ended up with multiple offers on our house and accepted an offer over asking price.Alex helped us throughout the closing process, coordinating things like the inspections and the final walkthrough, making every step of the closing process an easy experience.All the qualities that made Alex great at selling our house also paid off when it came time to buy our new house. Alex took the time to understand what we wanted and what we needed. He helped us make the right offer on the right house, leading us through the negotiation process, and we couldnt be happier with our new home.

We are so happy with Alex Smith! Hes thorough, dependable, has amazing attention to detail, honest, knowledgeable and has a fun sense of humor. In the beginning we told Alex what we wanted ($$$) for our house, or, we wanted to keep it. He went through our house inch by inch (literally) and directed us as to what needed a little TLC so we would sell our house for the amount we wanted, sell it fast AND so it would be in perfect condition for the new owners. He is from SoCal so he knew everything around our house that were selling perks! Plus, he gave us the referrals (all dependable and hard working like him) for any work that the house needed! He also walked us through the piles of paperwork that selling a home creates and knew what to do because it was in a trust. We cant say enough good things about this guy...wise beyond his years. Hes stuck with us for life :-) And, YES, we sold our house for exactly what we wanted!Good Job Alex! We appreciate everything youve done and do!

Alex was a great partner in helping my brother and me purchase our first home. There were a few unexpected curveballs along the way, an uncooperative seller, and then a global pandemic but it didnt phase our fearless realtor! He was with us through it all and did it with professionalism and a good attitude. Being first time buyers, we appreciated his patience and willingness to talk us through the home buying process. Alex is a skilled communicator and always very responsive to his clients. Others involved in the process (lender, sellers agent, etc) appreciated working with Alex and most importantly, we felt supported each step of the way. Youll be in good hands choosing Alex Smith for your home buying needs!

I highly recommend Alex Smith as a realtor. He is highly knowledgeable, extremely helpful, trustworthy, professional, and very dedicated to do right by his clients. I was a first-time home buyer, which in California can be quite intimidating. When my partner and I saw a house we liked, Alex hustled to get us a viewing. He connected us with a lender who helped us become competitive when bidding against cash buyers. He continued to search with us throughout the next few months as it was important for us to find a good house at the right price, given specific location limitations. When we had an offer accepted, Alex went above and beyond in SO MANY WAYS. The sellers’ realtor was from out of the area so Alex did a lot of extra work due to his expertise and knowledge of the South Bay. Throughout the home buying process, Alex taught us a lot during he process of walkthroughs, offers, and inspections. I feel really grateful that Alex was in our corner, and it reinforced for us how important it is to have a GOOD REALTOR—I will work with Alex again for future real estate transactions. WORTH IT.

We are so glad that we went with Alex. As first-time home buyers we didn’t even know where to begin. But the moment we partnered with Alex, everything became smooth sailing. He helped us with every step of the process. In the early days he helped us familiarize ourselves with the local market and his expertise allowed us to narrow down what we wanted, what we needed and what we could afford.Alex has easy-to-use software that is so much better than Zillow. It gives you real-time updates and allows you to communicate through a message function.When it was time to go see properties in person, he took great care in ensuring our health and safety and in respecting the homes we entered.When it was time to make an offer, Alex helped us stand out without going over a price we were comfortable with.During the escrow process he was always communicative with us and everyone else on our team. He answered all of our questions, quickly got to the bottom of any problems and made sure that we were always prepared for the next step.Alex’s knowledge of real estate and the South Bay is unparalleled. We highly recommend.

Alex is helping my fiancée and I buy our first home. From beginning to start he has been amazing. Helping guide us through an insane market and take such time and care to explain everything. We are in escrow now!

Alex is the best Real Estate agent in the business. I have known Alex for almost 20 years and he has always been a true friend I could rely on. So when it was time for my wife and I to purchase our first house, I knew the right person to help us get the job done was without a doubt Alex. He made the purchase effortless because of his expertise, use of technology, and negotiating skills. He was able to help us get the house we wanted at a lower price than the house was listed at! I highly recommend working with him when selling or buying a house. He also helped my parents sell their house and my grandmothers house for well over the list price! Alex is the man and it would be foolish to pass on an opportunity to work with him!

I hired Alex Smith to help me rent out a house I own. I had been very frustrated doing it on my own and turned to Alex Smith. He gave me excellent advice on how to fix up the property to get it ready and told me exactly how he would advertise the property. Within 3 days of listing it, he had found me some amazing tenants and they moved in almost immediately. I could not have done this on my own in the time it took! I would pay him MORE for what he did for me as I know he actually SAVED me money. Thank you Alex for such a seamless and professional experience.

In 2018, my wife and I decided to put our PVE condo up for sale in favor of a home in OR. Alex came recommended highly by a long time friend. It was a wise choice. We packed up the condo and left Alex a vacant condo to sell. He had the place cleaned and photographed and listed in a couple of weeks and we accepted an offer a couple of weeks after that. In other words, Alex handled everything for us since we were out of state. We are grateful he was so efficient and thoughtful. I know he really put a lot of time into the sale since there was a lot of back and forth between the offers and us. Thank you, Alex.

As first time sellers, we had researched and learned from other agents that Alex was the best in the South Bay. We agree wholeheartedly! His knowledge of the local markets and his professionalism is unparalleled. Alex’s use of technology and marketing strategies resulted in a full price offer on the first day. After one open house, we had five full-priced offers, which turned into a bidding war. The process was seamless due in part to Alex’s responsiveness and negotiation skills. We highly recommend Alex!
