Allison StoneOctober 5, 2024Craig was referred to us by our next door neighbor and I couldn’t possibly be happier with our experience working with him and his team. He really just “got us” so quickly and helped us refine our home search over the course of a few months - until we truly found our dream home in La Canada. Craig is extremely well-connected and well-respected locally which can make a huge difference. Even during closing, we had a team (that Craig assembled) that made it as easy as possible. 10/10 would recommend. Thanks Craig and Bianca! Not all heroes wear capes.
Susan SmithAugust 16, 2024We just sold our second house with Craig, and again the process went very smoothly. He’s honest, enjoyable, and easy to work with, Craig kept us informed with each step of the process. Due to his marketing skills, staging, beautiful pictures, and pricing, we were able to received multiple offers above the listing price. Thanks, Craig, for another great sale. Craig and Susan
Lago AssocJune 28, 2024Craig represented us in the sale of our mother’s house that she lived in for 60 years. Craig developed a strategy around pre inspection, cost effective remediation, paint and staging. He leveraged his extensive relationships with the needed contractors and we got the house on the market quickly. The house received over 20 offers and sold for over 20% above ask. Craig is by far the best broker we have worked with and highly recommend his services to anyone.
Andy GilmourJune 14, 2024Craig has handled the sales of two houses for me. Each was after a death in the family. He is the most caring, professional and understanding broker I have ever met. Craig is also very thorough and was happy to refer us to other professionals that we needed along the way. I am very happy that we used Craig for the sale of both houses.
Dick HumphreyJune 6, 2024Craig Farestveit was the selling agent for our home. When meeting with Craig, he was calm, smiling, welcoming, and enthusiastic but not pushy or aggressive. He listened to us to learn our needs and wishes – in addition to a high offer and quick sale, of course! Craig was able to suggest and recommend other professionals to help – mortgage brokers, tax accountants, etc. He very thoroughly researched comparable homes in the area to aid in setting both listing and target prices. These were impressively presented in a binder. Craig continued to put us at ease, with assurances to take care of everything! This was an immense relief as we were dreading the effort to remove and clean up the property. Craig shared plans along with the costs for preparing the home for sale – in our case, clean up and removal of unwanted items, painting, staging and advertising, etc. We had purchased another home first. Craig and friends took over immediately the very next day after we moved out. It took about a week or so to finish prepping the house before listing. Craig himself was present during open house sessions. He kept us informed both before, during and after the sale; we were never in the dark as to what was going on. When it came time to review offers, Craig was particularly helpful in evaluating the desirability of different bids and orchestrating counter proposals. He did not attempt to steer us toward accepting a particular offer, allowing us to make the decision we were comfortable with. We remain so thankful for Craig’s astute knowledge, his unwavering professionalism, helpful advice and calming assurances. We have no hesitation in recommending Craig and his firm.
Kimberly VillaMay 10, 2024Buying and selling a home is an overwhelming process, but working with Craig made it so much easier. His understanding of the area, the market, and our needs and desires led us to a perfect home of 17 years. Craig’s honesty and his willingness to walk us through every detail allowed us to feel confident and peaceful about our transactions.
Carol AyersMay 5, 2024There are great realtors out there and then there is Craig Farestveit. Simply the BEST of the best! Truly, NO comparison! From my first consultation, sitting with Craig in my living room to closing day of escrow... I can honestly say, the entire process was seamless. Of the utmost importance to me... Craig is the epitome of "ethical!" And yes, he is brilliantly... "real estate market savvy!" I could not have been more thrilled to receive 13 offers on my beloved family home and selling it for over 150K of the asking price!
Henry ArtimeMay 2, 2024Craig has represented me on all my home transactions; when selling or buying. He is extremely knowledgable about the local market and has always exceeded my expectations. Never a surprise and always with the highest integrity.
Jeff RiddellApril 26, 2024Craig is a really exceptional real estate professional. Honest and trustworthy. Communicates clearly. Wise. Patient. Crosses every i and dots every t. We have worked with several different agents in other cities over the years and working with Craig is a different experience altogether. He just knows his stuff and deals with everything like a professional. I can't recommend him enough.
David KummerApril 15, 2024I had previously worked with 6 different agents spanning 30 years. I was introduced to Craig when moving to the area for the first time. Craig is, by a wide margin, the absolute best and most professional real estate agent I have ever worked with. Prepping, staging, showing, negotiation and closing were all handled with extraordinary care and professionalism! It is truly rare to be absolutely certain that you not only got the very best deal possible, but you had absolutely nothing to worry about in the transaction!!Load more
