October 1, 2016 After 22 yrs. in a large family home, we decided to downsize. We selected Alex Montelongo Real Estate Group as our broker. Alex not only sold our home within 3 weeks of listing, but also helped us buy our new home. Alex and his associates were professional and extremely knowledgeable of the So. Cal real estate market. He guided us through the process of both escrows and was always available when called upon to answer questions and address the issues and concerns related to both sales. We would highly recommend Alex Montelongo Real Estate Group. Beverly & Mike Cardwell 17301 Majestic Cypress Yorba Linda, Ca.

February 2, 2007 RE: Letter of Recommendation for Alex Montelongo Dear Mr. Alex Montelongo: Now that the dust has settled, I can only begin by once again thanking you for making the purchase of our new property as easy as you did. From completing our search for The Right Place to meeting our needs to the final closing of a complex transaction. You were always there with timely, accurate advice and direction. Everything the property and you had to offer has exceeded our expectations. We will never forget your kindness, patience, and steadfast efforts on our behalf. You are exceptional; you went above and beyond to make sure we are satisfied with our purchase. You are the most effective and honest Realtor ( both which are very hard to find). We, also would like to take this opportunity to express our sincere gratitude for all your efforts in giving us the information we needed, comforted us at the most difficult times, and kept the process going despite the hurdles; and for these reasons we are both grateful. We could not have asked for a more professional, and caring (towards his clients needs) agent. If we ever need a Realtor again, we would not hesitate for a second to call on your services again. We will definitely recommend you enthusiastically to any seller/buyer. All who serve the public should take their cue from you! With warm gratitude, The Zamudio Family

Carla Maningas 18351 N. Windfall Dr. Surprise, AZ. 85374 October 13, 2011 I am writing to recommend Alex Montelongo as a Realtor and to expres my sincere gratitude for his professionalism and dedication to the task of selling a house in Lakewood, Ca. that belonged to my uncle, now deceased. I was in charge of handling my uncles affairs, but I live in Phoenix, Arizona. Without Alex, I don't know how I would have accomplished everything needed to get the house ready for the sale and get through the process. He made it not only possible, but as easy as it could be. Alex was willing to do so much more than any listing agent would ever be expected to do. He took care of that house as though it was his own, checking on it nearly every day, watering the lawn, fixing little things, always being considerate and respectful of the property and my time. I simply can't imagine that any other agent would have been half as conscientious as Alex was throughout the process. His attention to detail and commitment to the job was extraordinary. He sold the property in a very difficult market for the full listing price. He always kept me informed. I could not have asked for better representation and assistance. He's a marvelous person and an exceptional professional in his field. TO anyone considering having Alex list your property, or represent you as a buyer, move forward with complete confidence that your interests will be in good hands. He's a jewel and I'm terribly grateful to him. Sincerely Yours, Carla Maningas

January 7, 2011 TO Whom it May Concern, RE: Services of Alex Montelongo We first met Alex when we were looking for a rental in Lakewood in the Spring of 2009. He was so helpful and friendly, we decided to retain his services to represent us in finding and purchasing our first home in the fall of 2010. We appreciated the fact that Alex paid close attention to our likes and dislikes and steered us toward properties that were not only within our price range, but houses we might actually view as a home. When we did find a short sale we wished to purchase, he guided us through the lengthy process and always made us feel he had our best interests at heart. We have already recommended Alex's services to our friends and happily recommend him to any prospective customers. Sincerely, Audra & Anthony Arr

March 23, 2016 I was a first time home buyer when I met Alex Montelongo and it was a great experience overall. I interviewed a few Real Estate Agents to see who was the most fitting for me. He was the only one that mentioned to me that he can find me a home within my price range in 3 months, And he delivered! He is a very patient person, always accommodating and always goes out of his way to get more information about a property, such as permits. He is also a very resourceful person. He knows a lot of people that can help for different situations. It is easy to tell that he has massive experience in this industry. I am a very happy homeowner and will definitely contact him again whenever I want to buy or sell a house. Respectfully, Marvin Leiva

11/10/2012 I can't recommend Alex enough. I was looking for someone who really knows the area where my father lived, since I don't live close. Alex not only knows the area, but researched the neighborhood like he was going to move in, himself! After we listed the house, Alex worked with my 75 year old father to minimize the number of house viewings and get things on a schedule that kept disruptions to a minimum. Every step of the way, Alex kept my father, and me, informed on what was happening. Alex made the process fast and easy, and explained everything along the way.The house sold faster than we imagined, and we got more than we ever thought possible. Alex really knows his stuff, and knows how to market using modern day technology and tools, but with the personal touch and customer service that is so rare these days.

To Whom It May Concern, I would like to take a moment to tell about my experience working with Alex Montelongo on a recent transaction that we worked together on. My name is Alicia Seyfred, and I am a licensed California Real Estate Agent who has been in the business for 14 years. Seldom do we hear about working relationships between colleagues. Most importantly, a professional critique or a reference of how an Agent is viewed amongst their peers. Alex is extremely professional and personable it is a great asset of his, he gets along with all types of personalities. He is very knowledgeable, professional, assertive, experienced and as I said before extremely personable. I took a liking to him and his big personality right away. We established great communication and teamwork from the beginning to the end. Alex worked very hard with a seller that had a very hard personality to work with. He had to really try and keep each party calm in some very stressful parts of the transaction. On this transaction and he did everything in his power to keep the process moving in a forward motion. Whenever paperwork was needed or when a question was asked, he was extremely quick to reply. He kept his clients informed and was able to anticipate and remedy any issues that arose. Alex showed great work ethic, he works hard for his clients and it shows. I wish that more Agents were like him. It was my pleasure to work with Alex and I recommend his to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Alicia Seyfried / Realtor Coldwell Banker Star Realty DRE Lic#01299946

Joseph & Sandra F. Long Beach, Ca. May 12, 2012 To Whom It May Concern, Our home had been listed by another agent who just let it sit there without calling us to let us know that the listing had expired. Thank goodness, Alex showed up at our door, informed us that our home listing had expired, asked to set up an appointment, and then came to that appointment with a thorough plan. His plan talked about the short sale process and how he would market the home. Alex, impressed us from the very first day. Although, the process seemed to move slowly, he kept us well informed. He displayed tremendous work ethic which far exceeded our expectations. There was never a questin that went unanswered. Having to move from our home was bitter sweet. Although the decision was a tough decision and life changing, Alex's work ethic, support, and true professionalism made the process a more bearable experience. We look forward to working with Alex again when we are ready to buy a new home. Sincerely, Joe and Sandra Figueroa

Selling one's house is a life changing and emotional experience. It is important that you feel your Agent understands that. When I had surgery in the middle of the selling process, Alex worked out a schedule that would not impact my recovery period any more than was necessary. I wish Alex the very best and thank him for guiding me through it all with kindness...I now think of him as friend. Sara Smith

May 11,2006 To Whom It May Concern: It is an honor to write a letter about our real estate agent, Mr. Alex Montelongo. My husband and I experienced service above and beyond hat we expected and that type of dedication deserves recognition. In a day and age when honest, considerate and thorough service is hard to find; we knew we found a gem in Alex. Alex impressed us from the very first time we met him. He was professionally dressed, kind and very prepared to show us around Long Beach. His knowledge of the area and real estate was evident immediately. We had a new baby and Alex really accommodated us when we met to look at houses. He was extremely patient with our schedule and the fact that a baby can slow things down a bit. He has a family himself and that was evident in the way he treated us, and our newborn son. Most importantly, Alex is an extremely organized, honest and ethical agent. He listened to all of our questions and concerns and never once made us feel foolish. We could count on Alex for honest answers. He was always organized and kept us on track through the whole process. He walked us through every single step. Furthermore, Alex always dealt with us, and the sellers honestly. He never cut corners or had even a hint of unethical or dishonest behavior. Alex made our home buying experience wonderful. We recommend him to our friends and feel so blessed to have found him. He is not only a wonderful agent but, a great man. Sincerely, Reid and Andrea Proctor

April 20, 2010 To Whom it May Concern, I recently purchased a home and had the fortune to have Alex Montelongo as my Realtor. I found literally hundreds of homes in my price range in the area I was looking. It was intimidating at first but Alex helped me realize what types of homes were the best for me. I had purchased two homes prior to this and I thought I pretty much knew all of the ins and outs. I soon found out that with the glut of homes on the market today that there are many pitfalls. Alex took the time to explain the different types of sales Ex: short sales, standard sales and bank owned and answered all my questions regarding the benefits of each. I eventually decided on buying a short sale, which can be risky and takes a lot of finesse. I found that Alex kept the ball rolling making sure that everyone involved, including myself, was doing their part in making the sale go through in time. I have to hand it to Alex... He really is a great judge of character. He was able to read people well and was 100% accurate in how the sale went down. That sense of understanding of the Realty game made it easy for me to trust and value his opinion. I highly recommend Alex to anyone looking to buy a home. He truly went out of his way to make sure I was happy with my decision to buy my home. Sincerely, David Rosin 6647 E. Palo Verde Pl. Rancho Cucamonga, Ca. 91739

November 22, 2011 Re: Letter of Recommendation for Alex Montelongo Dear Alex, When we first met you from the beginning to the end you showed nothing but professionalism, and concern for us to find a home we would be happy with. We were exhausted from going from one part of town to the other, and not finding the home we so desired. In fact, we were ready to give up looking for a home, as we were totally frustrated with the entire process. The day we met, you took us by the hand and explained to us the ins and outs of looking for a home, the process we would go through, and the choices of financing we could expect. At that moment we felt we had met the right person to carry us through this journey, and believe us, it was a journey. You first made sure that we were comfortable with you, and you were even concerned if you were the right agent for us, since we were changing agents. Believe me when we say from the moment we shook hands with you, and after leaving your office, we knew we had an agent who was an expert in his business, and would find a great home for us. To prevent us from continuously searching everywhere, you talked to us, and pinpointed the type of home we wanted, and the price range we could afford. You were the middles person through it all, negotiating with the sellers agent, steering us to a great mortgage person, and escrow company. You answered every one of our questions, and when you did not have the answer you researched and found it. No one could have asked for a better agent. In fact we feel as if you have become part of our family. We feel honored to recommend you to people we know, because we can assure them that they will get five star service.

There was one property I was interested in and thought we would just view the one unit. I was pleasantly surprised and impressed with his work ethic when he called me right back to let me know he had scheduled viewings for a total of three properties. This set the tone for the whole experience. Throughout the process, Alex, maintained the highest level of professionalism and guided the process as if I were one of his family members. He is tough and fair and will always be fully engaged to ensure the needs of his clients are met with the real estate transaction as he writes up offers, responds to counter-offers and in between makes himself available to answer any questions. He even took the time to read through pages of HOA documents to determine the status of parking allocation for a unit. Alex Montelongo is the complete package and supports his clients with the utmost integrity, highest skill set, talent, and generosity of spirit. He represents the best of what it means to be a real estate agent and truly experiences the joy of his clients when the transaction is completed and property keys are transferred. Having Alex as part of your real estate team is a good indicator you will be successful in your property purchase or sale.

"We hadn't bought a new home in nearly 20 years when our family finally decided it was time to upgrade and look for something larger to accommodate our needs. By not being in the market for so long and therefore not knowing what to expect and with so much changing over that time, it was a blessing to come into contact with Alex! We contacted Alex when we saw that he was the selling agent for a home that caught our eye. After deciding that this particular home was not the right one for our family Alex worked tirelessly to show us several other properties until we found the perfect home to suit our needs. He was very professional, punctual and always returned our correspondences in a timely manner any time a question arose even when he was busy with his own family's schedules. Thank you kindly, Alex. Would highly recommend looking up Alex for any of your real estate needs."

To whom it may concern, I recently had a transaction located on 6152 Hayter Ave. in Lakewood California with a REal Estate Agent who made our profession a success and a blessing to be a part of. To be more specific, he made a very difficult transaction, a short sale in Real Estate, very smooth from the start to finish. His name is Alex Montelongo and he holds a license with Coldwell Banker Star Realty in Seal Beach. Alex was always prepared, skilled and presented a work ethic that can be described as Top of the Line as a Real Estate Consultant. It si my pleasure, as a Real Estate Consultant myself, to bring others attention when a member in my fraternity shines. Therefore, when a light shines bright, it has always been my duty to allow that light to shine. Alex Montelongo, job well done and may your skill and professionalism continue to improve our industry.

To whom it may concern, I am writing this letter of recommendation for Alex Montelongo's future clients. Alex was the first and only Realtor I worked with when searching to buy a home. As a first time home buyer, I expected the whole process to be nerve wrecking and confusing, but Alex made me feel confident and at ease during the whole ordeal. I never felt pressure nor disappointed during my search. He took great care to meet my criteria in purchasing my first home, and had a lot of knowledge about today's real-estate market. Alex is such a nice guy that he drove my mom and I around the neighborhood on his lunch break to look at different homes. Always with a positive attitude, Alex gladly showed my mother and I house after house until he found one we completely fell in love with. You know the saying, Love at first sight? That's how I felt when I stepped into my new home. My family and I would like to thank Alex for all of his hard work and dedication for helping me purchase my first home. He had so much patience and explained all of the paperwork to my parents and I. Alex made this whole process of buying a home a breeze. I would highly recommend Alex Montelongo as your Realtor of choice. Kind regards, Julie Colhoun, Jerry & Janice Valsvig

10/15/2014 To whom it may concern, It is tough trying to choose a Broker out of hundreds, but what stood out about Alex is the fact that I could not find any bad reviews about him, and after experiencing his help to purchase our first home I can see why. Not only was he professional but he was always very optimistic, just in case you fall in love with that fixer upper house, he can see the positive side of the house so that you do get excited. He also made sure we did not purchase our house in the bad part of the city, it was nice to know he was looking out for our safety. He kept us very updated and he made sure we got what we wanted when it came to negotiations. Ligia and Dustin Borrelli 4012 Camerino St. Lakewood, Ca. 90712

15/15/2012 To whom it may concern, I highly recommend Alex Montelongo to you as your Buyers Agent. Alex is pro-active, loyal,intelligent, hard-working, committed, patient and a good listener. We met Alex in one of the properties and we liked his wealth of knowledge in Real Estate properties in surrounding areas of Los Alamitos. After selecting the property we had a choice of choosing our own agent. I was about to choose a Redfin Agent hoping for some cash back. Redin's pay-back money is comparatively negligible, and their service, I don't know how it's going to be. We want a real practical person who can work for us and be there for us. Then we selected Alex. We found good qualities in him such as listening to our requirements and comments and offer his ideas to us. If needed he can be very helpful in clearing your thought process as well. He helped us in every stage of the home buying process as and when we had a question. He worked on our terms and timings. He answered our phone calls most of the times. We had a rough ride with the Sellers Agent and Lenders/Approval/Closing Process, and during these times Alex was so calm, patient and managed the situation well by being on top of the process. He is a good candidate to work under pressure. When I prefer to work with someone, I want that person to be experienced, honest, and competitive, know your requirements and work on my terms. We think Alex has all of them. If you have any questions regarding Alex Montelongo, we are happy to inform you of our home buying experience with Alex. Thank you, Raj & Sravani Kode Family

Alex went above and beyond to help us find a place. He informed me about good areas to live that would be suitable for my family. When I look to buy a place in Long Beach I will again choose Alex as my agent. Isabel Pineda Client, Renter

May 11, 2006 To Whom It May Concern, My name is Cetric D. Fletcher, and I recently hired Alex Montelongo as my agent in the selling of my home. The house had previously been listed with another agent for three months, NO SALE. Alex took over the listing, 10 days later, I had three offers to choose from. I accepted one of these offers and the house is SOLD!!! I recommend Alex 100%. He is the hardest working kid you've ever seen. He won't stop until the deal is done. He came over and did the small repairs out of his own pocket, painting, touch ups, etc.... He is as we used to say a real Go-Getter If I have any more real estate matters, he is in my rolodex and he'll be the first one I call. Mr. C. Fletcher

05/27/2014 Through my personal experience dealing with Alex Montelongo, I very well understood the patience, resources, and most of all his immediate knowledge to answers. The help we received was far more then expected, Maria & I will continue to know the right choice is Alex Montelongo. Alex showed us what experience is all about. We had questions and Alex had reliable answers. The advice we got was right on. Time is what I got and I enjoy what I do Alex told me. And for that I commend him. It is difficult to find the right person or agent when purchasing a home, but when you are good at what you do, its the time you spend with people, especially when its a waiting game. Alex always returned my calls, with the information that I needed. You really do serve as a guide to a new home. Maria and I have made a decision in keeping you as our agent indefinitely. Thank you, Maria & Robert Rider

October 01, 2016 - After 22 yrs. in a large family home, we decided to downsize. We selected Alex Montelongo Real Estate Group as our broker. Alex not only sold our home within 3 weeks of listing, but also helped us buy our new home. Alex and his associates were professional and extremely knowledgeable of the So. Cal real estate market. He guided us through the process of both escrows and was always available when called upon to answer questions and address the issues and concerns related to both sales. We would highly recommend Alex Montelongo Real Estate Group. Mike & Beverly Cardwell

This is our second time working with Alex and this second experience has solidified why we will continue to work with him and/or recommended him in the future. He is knowledgeable, dependable and confident in his work. Purchasing a home can be stressful add to that the current safety guideline challenges and in our case a last minute curve ball (seller’s end). Alex understood time was of an essence and was diligent in getting us into our new home. Thank You Alex !!!

August 12, 2010 Letter of recommendation for Alex Montelongo Alex, I wanted to send to you a word of thanks for the great service you provided in not only helping to locate a tenant for my property, but in selling it for me as well. I was very pleased to have your support in this sale. Throughout the entire process you were professional, conscientious, and motivated. I always felt as though I was your only client. Initially, I was uncertain of the asking price, but you diligently checked multiple sources to verify that the pricing was acurate and met my goal of selling the house within a certain time frame. You were able to schedule all meetings and interactions at my convenience which was very helpful considering I was not living in the area. You provided me with outstanding advice about how to prepare my home for sale given your knowledge of the area. You promptly returned all phone calls and had advertising in place as soon as possible. You worked hard, illustrated a great understanding of contract details, negotiation etiquette and documentation. In all, I must say that I am impressed. I would definitely recommend your services and would not hesitate to contact you again should the need arise. With gratitude, Jennifer Torres Signal Hill 2010

May 13, 2008 Dear Prospective Home Buyer, We recommend Alex Montelongo to be your personal Real Estate Professional to guide you to your dream home. This purchase was our third home buying experience and Alex is the best in his field. Alex was able to seamlessly negotiate a great deal with the sellers. One of the key highlights of our experience with Alex is we never had to follow-up with him, he always kept us informed of key developments. We'd had such a great experience with him that we look forward to keeping him as our lifetime Real Estate Agent because our dreams don't end here. Sincerely, Mike & Filo Collins

October 02, 2016 - Alex Montelongo started my buying process by expediently contacting me upon a strong referral. There was one property I was interested in and thought we would just view the one unit. I was pleasantly surprised and impressed with his work ethic when he called me right back to let me know he had scheduled viewings for a total of three properties. This set the tone for the whole experience. Throughout the process, Alex, maintained the highest level of professionalism and guided the process as if I were one of his family members. He is tough and fair and will always be fully engaged to ensure the needs of his clients are met with the real estate transaction as he writes up offers, responds to counter-offers and in between makes himself available to answer any questions. He even took the time to read through pages of HOA documents to determine the status of parking allocation for a unit. Alex Montelongo is the complete package and supports his clients with the utmost integrity, highest skill set, talent, and generosity of spirit. He represents the best of what it means to be a real estate agent and truly experiences the joy of his clients when the transaction is completed and property keys are transferred. Having Alex as part of your real estate team is a good indicator you will be successful in your property purchase or sale. I highly recommend him to real estate property buyers/sellers as someone who will get the job done and see you through from initial property viewings, to escrow closing and transfer of property keys.

July 9, 2012 To whom it may concern: Upon our decision to search for property in Long Beach, my husband and I were highly encouraged to contact Mr. Montelongo. The referral was based on a history of respect and personal admiration for Alex. From the beginning, our experience with Alex was a positive one. It was evident that he was very knowledgeable both in his profession and the area in which we wanted to buy. He listened to us, was friendly, and went out of his way to make our home-buying experience a positive one. Alex displayed the utmost integrity and remained devoted to achieving the most favorable outcome for us. We highly recommend Alex Montelongo for any property acquisition. We are convinced that without him and his guidance, we would not have had as successful result as we did. Sincerely, Tony and Linda Spik

9/1/2015 Within The past year and a half, I have worked with three different realtors. The first two I worked with encouraged me to consider homes in impoverished, neglected neighborhoods because of my income. They hardly communicated with me during the search most of the time I had to send them properties that I was interested in. While talking about these frustrations with a coworker, she suggested I talk to Alex, I have to say, It was a great decision. Alex has been the most helpful, communicative, and efficient of all. After filling Alex in on my finances, he assured me that within three months I would find a home. to be honest, I thought he was kidding. Three months later, I was already filling out the paper work for a home I was excited to move into. He and his team looked for homes in areas I wanted to live in, frequently updated me, and invested in my search despite my price range. They were quick, proactive, and cared about my priorities. I would recommend Alex to anyone. Call him if you're really interested in buying a home he can make it happen, rich or poor. Ray Aguilar

Subject: Closed Sale at 3818 Carfax Ave Long Beach, Ca. 90808 Alex, Well we made it! My wife and I want to thank you for your efforts on a very difficult sale. As you know the market is in a down phase and we were trying to sell a house that needed a lot of repairs to get it marketable. We appreciate the fact that you hung in there with us while we did the necessary repairs and cosmetic touch ups to make this home presentable and meet the current expectations of our prospective buyers. Your persistence and approach to the many details to get this into escrow was truly remarkable and you are to be commended. If we ever buy or sell another house you definitely are the realtor of choice. Best of luck for the future in all of your endeavors. Tom and Pam Taylor
