Desi R.

Desi is an experienced Realtor. He helped me find an appropriate home and guided me, a first time buyer, through the process with patience. His people skills are top notch in that he was able to help me understand the market, the motivations of the sellers and to tailor my offer to their interests. The escrow was especially complicated and Desi stood with me every step along the way. He was patient, he responded promptly to every phone call. He was always on top of the transaction. Despite unforeseen legal obstacles on the part of the sellers, he gave me courage to persist and stood with me even when we had to explore multiple alternative properties. Without his help, I could not have arrived at a successful closing. I trust him implicitly and recommend him wholeheartedly. I have known him for over 12 years now, and he is also a strong community leader in the Santa Ana community... Desi is great!

My wife and I were first time home buyers and were extremely nervous about purchasing a new home. Desi patiently answered every question and walked us through every step as we made our first offer. Because we made an offer on a short sale, the process was not as straightforward as a traditional purchase. The circumstances surrounding our short sale purchase were particularly laden with pitfalls, and we truly believe if it were not for Desi’s expertise in handling short sales, and his tireless efforts in ensuring the sale went through, we would not have landed our dream home. Desi is an extremely hard worker and he is always on top of every detail. He is an active presence in the area and I still reach out to Desi anytime I have a question regarding our home or neighborhood, and he is always immediately there for us. We recommend Desi highly. Sincerely Robert and Esther

Working with Desi on our lease listing was an outstanding experience from beginning to end. His deep market knowledge made it clear we were in capable hands. He understood exactly how to position the property, how to attract qualified tenants, and how to navigate every detail with confidence and clarity. Desi brought all the qualities you hope for in a realtor: professionalism, responsiveness, and a genuine commitment to doing things the right way. He communicated proactively, kept us informed at every step, and handled the screening and negotiation process with impressive thoroughness. His attention to detail ensured the lease terms protected our interests, and his calm, steady guidance made the entire process smooth and stress‑free. What stood out most was how much he truly cared about getting us the right tenant, not just any tenant. He listened closely to our priorities, respected our timeline, and made sure we felt supported throughout the process. It’s rare to find someone who combines this level of expertise with such a personable, trustworthy approach. We’re extremely pleased with the outcome and highly recommend Desi to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, reliable, and genuinely exceptional realtor for their lease or sale. Jose Ivan Martin
