We're excited to share our experience with Ron, who helped us purchase our home. This is the second time we've had the pleasure of working with him, and once again, he exceeded our expectations.

Throughout the entire process, Ron was incredibly attentive and proactive. He maintained excellent communication with the seller's agent, ensuring a smooth and efficient transaction. He provided invaluable advice at every step, guiding us through the complexities of buying a home.

We especially appreciated his patience and understanding. He never pressured us into making a decision, allowing us to proceed at our own pace. Thanks to his expertise and dedication, we had a great and smooth buying experience this time.

We would recommend Ron if you are looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, and supportive real estate agent.

We are extremely thankful to have found our realtor Ron Laserna! With this being our first time selling, we did not know what to expect, how to feel or where to begin. Ron exceeded our expectations throughout this entire process going above and beyond every step of the way. His communication skills are top notch, always available for any questions or concerns we had. He is an extremely hard worker, and you can instantly tell he loves what he does. I would highly recommend Ron to anyone who is looking to buy or sell their home. He is truly the best!

Well deserved, but LOOONG overdue.

We began working with Ron for our first home buying experience about ~2 years ago. For the past 22+ years, my fiancé and I had been happy renters. Finally ready to take the plunge and start paying our own mortgage (instead of someone else’s) we reached out to Ron. Recommended by a family friend and a long-time affiliate of many of our friend circles, we entrusted him to walk us through the mysterious path that is the first-time home buyer experience.

Although Ron has numerous qualities that I believe make for an amazing realtor; one thing that stood out to me the most was his patience and commitment. I reiterate, our journey lasted over two years. We saw countless homes, both a combination of listings on the internet and unlisted homes that Ron felt fit our criteria. He was always a phone call away and made time for us expeditiously. Honestly, if I didn’t follow his social media, I would have thought we were his only clients. I repeat, he was so engaged, that he made both my fiancé and I feel like priority #1.

We had many ups and downs, seeing beautiful homes that checked every box. Only to submit an offer that was outbid. Ron knew our budget, knew the market, and did his best to guide us with numbers that could potentially be accepted. He was comforting, optimistic and genuinely compassionate whenever things didn't go in our favor. He stuck with us, kept his ear to the ground and ultimately found us a house in our originally targeted area, within our budget that checked off all our boxes! A house that we now lovingly call our home. What an experience!

Along with what I already mentioned, Ron was informative, very knowledgeable, and extremely reliable. His communication skills are exceptional. Which helped a ton considering our lack of experience in real estate. I could not have asked for a better realtor to share this huge life milestone with.

From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you Ron!

Cheers,
J&J

We recently had the pleasure of working with Ron in purchasing our new home. He won our confidence in the very first meeting with his vast knowledge and excellent communication skills. I entered as a newbie in the market, knowing nothing about real estate, and he helped us with the whole process seamlessly. His negotiation skills are highly impressive and will definitely work in any buyer's favor. He gave us all the time we asked for and honestly shared his unbiased opinion.

Ron moved quickly to suggest opportunities that fit my parameters. When a listing fit the bill, he had the background information ready prior to the vist. He always showed up promptly, and was ready and willing to answer all questions at all times. It was great working with him on this purchase!

Ron Laserna's creative expertise assisted in our landing our first home in West Sacramento. His intellect and warm manner are highly recommended to family and friends. We appreciate his hard work ethic and will certainly reconnect with him when we upgrade in a few years. We anticipate you are looking forward to working with him as we do too.

It was an awesome experience working with Ron. He was willing to drive to the distance for us to find the house that I need and was patience throughout the whole process. I almost gave up looking for a home a few times, but he stuck with us and we got through it. I could always rely on him to be on time on the dot and be flexible with my schedule to meet at the house. He helped me all the way through even after closing of the homes. Ron gave me a realistic expectation of what I should be offering on the home to win the house that I wanted. Will definitely recommend Ron to anyone looking for a home in the bay area.

We thought that finding a home nowadays would be an ardous undertaking but Ron has made our experience as first time homebuyers painless and worry-free. He took time to explain the process patiently, solicits our feedback, answers our questions, and was very understanding of our concerns. Ron is very flexible with scheduling and he values our time. Outstanding service! Highly recommended! Thank you Ron for helping my family find our first home.

Ron is very professional and responsive. His local experience and knowledge of the market was very helpful. He is very responsive and made the whole process very easy. I would highly recommend him.

Ron is one of the smartest professional agents to work with in the Bay area. He and his team manages the entire process from getting new buyers onboarded to handing over the ownership, like a pro. His breadth and depth in understanding about the market is truly commendable. He is pretty up-to-date about the market trends and is adept at getting the offers accepted quickly.

What I particularly admire about Ron is his commitment towards the work and he is a man of his words.
When working with Reali, we were got caught in an unpredictable situation where Ron immediately jumped in and took control over the siltation, like we never thought. I, without any hesitance, recommend Ron to work with if you wish to have stress free process of buying a house.

It was our pleasure to work with Ron during our home buying and selling process. (Q1, 2021)

Buying process:
It was simply by happenstance that we found Ron via a Zillow inquiry. Ron was very helpful all along the way. He was prompt, efficient, and to the point in email communications. He quickly pulled up comps and existing market data for any property we toured/asked data for. For home showings (yr 2020/2021), his team at Reali handled the scheduling. Ron was helpful and showed us all the homes we requested, even though some were too "different" from what our desired size/budget was. At no point did he pressure us or push us in any way to make a decision quickly. The sale price of comparable homes exists (for closed homes) on Zillow, but the pending sale info, inventory, and market sentiment is something that has to be "sensed". Ron was good with all of that. Ron is everything that you want in a realtor- honest, prompt, and effective. For our loan and closing, Ron worked with our loan agent and kept the listing agent in the loop at all times. I would heartily recommend Ron!

Selling process:
Ron was a pleasure to work with throughout the home selling process. He had previously helped us buy a home, so this was our second time working with him. Ron demonstrated again why he is your go-to person; Ron is professional and detailed oriented while being cognitive of the big picture. Interactions with him are always very smooth; he provides his honest recommendations without pressuring you. This is very important because you want an agent who can speak their mind so that you can check your bias.

When we were thinking of selling our home, Ron put together a checklist for us to fix, then gave us a detailed timeline of the next steps. He coordinated everything from move out to key handover to new owners (inspections/staging/open houses/offers/etc). Whenever things moved, he adjusted the schedule to reflect the new dates. This was very comforting and took out all the "I dont know what's happening- who is waiting on whom?" sentiment that can exist in such processes. Based on the market conditions, Ron came up with due dates and then helped us vet/select the offer that was a good fit for us. He then worked with the buyer's agent to ensure the transition was smooth and the closing was on track. He amended the contracts as per the new closing date. He did protect our interests throughout the process, and he did that while following due process and treating all parties involved with respect.

I am very much appreciative of Ron's skills. Buying/selling a home is very much a money game, where market conditions and offer amounts largely determine the outcome. Yet, the process can be complicated, with slow-moving parts. Ron ensured that all involved parties came out feeling like winners.

TLDR: I would strongly recommend Ron, without any ifs and buts!

When it comes to sell/buy house, Market trend, timing, preparation and luck should be followed to win the game, however they may not be achievable by individual efforts. However. I can confidently mention that I am lucky to work with Ron & Reali team since it was very smooth process from the beginning until closing. Ron is very professional realtor and knowledgeable about the markets. His experience and recommendation has become my assets in the real estate market and we have achieved beyond our expectation at the end.

Also, Reali team has been responded any requests or questions in very quick time manner so that I am able to focus my regular daily life. Great team works and well communicated via app, email, and text message. As a seller, 2% fee including deep cleaning, staging, and photographs are very competitive compared to other companies and no hidden fee. I highly recommended to work with Reali and look forward working with them again.

Ron was great! It was great to have some one break down the process and show us how to be an educated shopper and educated buyer. Equipped with the knowledge he and his team provided, we were able to find the place we love while staying in our budget. He was able to provide insights on how to make strong offers without just spending.

Ron is the best realtor we have worked with (we worked with a few others before we found Ron) and we are so glad we found him!

He is very patient, does not push you to make uncomfortable / hasty decisions. His estimates (CMA) are very accurate. Being first time home buyers, we were a bit hesitant and had a budget for each house that we did not want to cross. But we consistently observed that the homes eventually sold for an amount that Ron originally predicted and suggested to us.

Thank you so much Ron for helping us buy our first home and we really appreciate your help!

Ron is a fearless realtor who is one of the most outgoing and outside-of-the-box thinkers I've encountered. He's constantly thinking of new ways to market his listings in professional and eye-catching ways that will provide his clients with maximum exposure. He's also a wealth of knowledge about the bay area. Ron has a large toolkit of resources that he uses to help both buyers and sellers alike successfully accomplish their real estate goals. Ron gets the job done.

Ron is a true professional. It was truly a pleasure to work with him as he helped us both buy our new home and sell our condo for top dollar. His understanding of the market dynamics was extremely helpful in putting a competitive offer together for the purchase as well as receiving a strong offer on the sale side. He is patient, talks through approach/strategy and always kept us apprised of status and updates on a regular basis. He goes above and beyond and goes the extra mile to make himself available evenings, weekends etc. He is always straight to the point and provide honest and actionable feedback/advice. I strongly recommend him to anyone that is in the market for buying or selling their home. He is AWESOME!

I really liked working with Ron- he was able to quickly explain the process from beginning to end and what made sense and when. Such as during the pandemic, if it was a good idea to buy or wait. Ron thoroughly explained the pros and cons of what it meant to buy a house for the future rather than the immediate timeframe.
If you plan to buy a house and want an honest acquaintance for your journey, I highly recommend Ron.

Ron has all the great qualities needed to win you a home in any market conditions! Working with Ron was an awesome experience. You can feel all his real estate experience at work during the entire journey. He is superfast, responsive and highly professional. The first time we spoke to Ron, we explained what we were looking for from a real estate agent (especially with a prior bad experience from another realtor) and he delivered beyond that. Ron was patient with our home search but also aggressive when it was time to make an offer. He made sure that we won the offer working with the seller agent. This aggressive mindset is what is needed when working in a hot market like the BayArea. We are so glad that we found Ron. We highly recommend Ron and Reali service!

My friend introduced us Ron and Reali when we started looking for our first home. She and her friends used to work with Ron and they were impressed with his services. And we are pursuaded too. Ron was very patient to explain us the process and to answer any questions we had. He never rushed us to offer a house. He looked into the reports, communicated with the listing agent to give us more insights and what he thought. He advised and guided us on putting the offer as well as the steps we need to do after we were in contract. With his help, we finally found our own place called home. We would highly recommend Ron!

Ron was our agent to sell our house and buy a new one. We got a very satisfactory service throughout the whole process.
We were happy with the help and support from the time preparing the home ready, setting up for pictures to all the way closing it. Ron was very responsive and he helped us to understand the whole process.
Finding a new house was very challenging considering the current market. With the help of Ron, we finally got the house which fits almost of our requirements.

I would definitely recommend Ron to any one who looks for a professional agent.

Thanks for your help, Ron!

Together with Ron we ended up buying a new house as well as selling our old house. The whole process was wonderful. Ron was there in the process without ever being pushy. In both buying and selling process he enabled us to get the maximum value through the right information. With the information he enabled us as buyer/seller to make the right decision but never pushed us on a decision. I highly recommend, like I have already recommended him to my friends and family.

He has a good sense of understanding the pulse of the market when to put it and when to wait..etc. He leverages the opportunities and helps to get good negotiation while reviewing the offers. He is very responsive, easy person to work with.

We switched from Redfin to Reali after a friend's recommendation and were incredibly lucky to be paired with Ron Laserna. He is extremely knowledgeable about Bay Area markets, genuinely cares about his clients, works incredibly hard but with a positive attitude and smile and you don't have to worry about being rushed into a purchase with Ron. It took us about 3 months and never once did Ron rush us, his team at Reali was a pleasure to work with, professional, helpful, polite and responsive. Despite a high volume of requests, Nick and Matt were able to get us to see all the homes we wanted to see. We finally bought a lovely home in Pleasanton and we could not have done it without Ron and the Reali team. We also wanted to give a shout out to Mia who helped explain how the cash offer works and even gave us free advise on some homes. Highly highly recommend Reali, Ron and team!

Consider Ron the conductor of a symphony. He sets the tempo, calls on each section of the orchestra to do their magic at the appropriate time. Ron is professional, responsive and knows his stuff. He provided guidance on prepping the house for the photo/video shoot, giving us a checklist to get all the reports ready. He then shared comparables in the neighborhood to price the house appropriately for the market, ensuring we’d be successful out the gate.

In the age of real time info, Reali delivers. Ron set up alerts so we’d be informed of all showings. Rest assured, he actively screens requests so your home is not just open as a free-for-all. He noted one request came from an expired license and flagged it, to prevent tying up a time slot for another prospective and legitimate buyer. The takeaway is he pays attention!

The escrow process was great as well and I can continue boasting about this team but this might end up being a novel. There are so many great things to say about working with Ron and with the Reali team. Everyone kept us informed of progress and we closed! Do yourself a favor and work with Ron and the Reali team!
