11 out of 10 stars for service.

Colin is AMAZING. He represented us in 2020 as buyers for our first home (did an awesome job) and more recently in Q1 of 2026 as the sellers when we sold the same house he helped us buy. Tier 1 service and knowledge of the industry. Helped us navigate a plethora of different scenarios in each phase from listing price, staging options and opinions, timing (we were moving out of state), and of course the potential buyers analysis. Colin helped us sift through the tire kickers and shaky offers. Ended up getting over asking with a great buyer. We were always in good hands with him and could confidently keep our minds on the tasks at hand packing for an out of state move with 3 kids and 2 dogs, knowing he was handling the hard stuff. 11 out of 10 stars for service. We recommended him to friends back in 2020 who he helped buy their first home and they loved him as well. Guaranteed you’ll have a wonderful time with him. Good guy all around.

Colin is far and away the best realtor I've worked with! He helped my parents buy a home and then years later helped me sell my first home, and everything went so smoothly! He led me through making decisions without pressuring me at all but instead by giving me all the information I needed to feel confident in my choices. He is an excellent communicator, and followed up on everything through the escrow process daily and gave me all the updates I needed. He is always easy to get ahold of but is never pushy or overwhelming. I simply cannot express what a pleasure it was to go through the selling process with Colin. I've heard real estate is stressful, but honestly it was a joy and went so smoothly, all thanks to the hard work of Colin.

He knows his stuff and really took care of us on the sale of our house in San Juan Capistrano.

We are so happy we had Colin Farris as our realtor. I highly recommend him for your real estate needs. He knows his stuff and really took care of us on the sale of our house in Captains Hill, San Juan Capistrano. He was on top of everything the whole way through. We could not be more pleased with the way things turned out. Thank you so much Colin.

We pointed out several homes we liked and Colin sent letters to those 24 homeowners introducing us..

My husband and I met Colin a few years ago and we kept him in our thoughts for future reference. When we were ready to buy a home in Carlsbad, Colin drove us there to tour a community we were interested in. We pointed out several homes we liked and Colin sent letters to those 24 homeowners introducing us and letting them know we were looking to buy in their community should they be interested in selling. When the perfect property came on the market Colin took us down to tour that home. We loved it and put in an offer that day which was accepted. Colin went above and beyond in facilitating the purchase of our new home. He scheduled and met with on-site inspectors savings us from driving down there from San Juan Capistrano. He had constant communication with both escrow companies throughout the escrow process. He met with us several times to help with the completion of escrow documents. He reached out to the Title Company to make sure the title process went smoothly. He was readily available to answer any questions we had and still is should we need to reach out to him. Colin is a 5-star realtor and is extremely knowledgeable and personable and we highly recommend him to anyone purchasing and/or selling a home.

I wish that I could give Colin ten stars! He has helped my husband and me sell our home in beautiful San Clemente. Colin acted as a project manager for us helping us with contacts, going the extra mile, always keeping us well-informed, holding our hands when we needed it, being an Excellent Real Estate Agent, as well as an all-around great guy on top of it. Hiring Colin will be the best decision that you ever make.

I have bought and sold 8 homes in my life and have never had such a great realtor. Colin arranged for contractors to meet us at the house all at the same time to get multiple bids for flooring and painting. He also arranged for estate sale companies to meet with us all on the same day and timeframe. It was so convenient. We never even had to list the house in the multiple listings as he had a buyer as soon as other realtors knew it was about to be listed. We got top dollar. Colin is also a very nice person and professional. He kept in touch with us on a regular basis. I would give him ten stars if that was an option.

Thanks to Colin's experience, expertise, and patience, we are now home owners!

Our home search started in September of 2021, and after a year of putting in offers on homes all over Orange County, we were still searching. In December of 2022, our good friends successfully purchased a home in a very competitive market (San Clemente) with a realtor, Colin Farris. Colin had also helped another couple we were friends with find their dream home in historic Santa Ana a few years prior. We contacted Colin right after before Chrismas, and he immediately jumped in and started working with us to understand what we were looking for. We learned so much from him about how to be proactive about home buying, getting the word out into neighborhoods that we were interested in moving to the area, how we could create material to distribute to potential sellers, and more. After just 2 months of working with Colin, my husband and I found a home in North Tustin that was perfect for us. Colin arranged a viewing just 24 hours after listing, and by the next morning we had an offer in that was accepted later that week. Through the entire escrow process, Colin was there every step of the way, during inspections, communicating with the sellers agent, and even our lender to make sure the process went smoothly. Thanks to Colin's experience, expertise, and patience, we are now home owners! We couldn't have done it without Colin's perseverance and I know we can call him for advice any time, we are so thankful for his help. I mention Colin to anyone that is searching for a home or trying to sell, he is truly an expert at what he does.

We had such a great experience with Colin as first time home buyers in San Clemente!

We had such a great experience with Colin as first time home buyers in San Clemente! What we appreciated the most was how much we could trust him. We really felt like he had our best interest at heart, and he was never pushy or slimy like other people we've worked with. He was straightforward, thorough, knowledgeable, helpful and communicated extremely clearly. We felt very well taken care of and the process was enjoyable from start to finish. We're honestly very grateful that he was recommended to us and if we ever move we would look forward to working with him again.

Colin came highly recommended to us by close friends of ours who had just bought their first home in Mission Viejo. This was also our first time dabbling in the home buying process, so my fiancé and I were a little hesitant and completely clueless on where to start. We needed A LOT of hand holding and guidance from the start. Colin has far exceeded our expectations and made the process seamless and stress-free from start to finish. He answered every question we had (and it was a lot), was prompt in scheduling tours in a highly competitive market, and was responsive and available to answer our texts, calls, emails, etc. He is also very well versed and knowledgeable with the VA home loan process/ benefits and took on more than expected in this area, directly communicating with our lender at times to ensure nothing slipped through the cracks. Colin went above and beyond throughout the entire process. We toured 15-20 houses and he never once made us feel pressured to submit an offer. He was objective throughout the process and even brought up potential issues that we should pay attention to when assessing houses. Colin truly wanted us to find our perfect home, regardless of how long it took. Because of his knowledge and expertise, we ended up finding our DREAM home in San Juan Capistrano and will soon be in escrow. I can’t speak highly enough of Colin’s work-ethic. He is a highly experienced realtor in Orange County and beyond. You will not be disappointed if you go with him!

We met Colin at one of his open houses a couple of years ago

We met Colin at one of his open houses a couple of years ago. We were just looking, not serious about buying at the time, and let him know that. Despite that fact, Colin spent a significant amount of time answering our questions, and educating us on the market and the home buying process. We were so impressed by his knowledge and down to earth, friendly manner. We knew that when it was time to buy, we would without a doubt use him. Over the next couple of years we would text him if we had questions, he always promptly and thoroughly responded. Finally it was the right time for us to start looking for a home. He asked all the right questions, understanding what was important to us in our search. If we found a home we were interested in, he would research it’s history, the HOA rules, and ask the selling agent questions so we were fully informed about the property. He directed us through the offering and escrow process, and it could not have gone more smoothly. Because of him, we now have a home in San Juan Capistrano that we love! We highly recommend Colin to our family, friends and to anyone buying a home. We would certainly use him again! Janee S.

We had some very specific requirements and assumed it would take months to find a home that fit our list. Colin Farris understood that our first trip to the area that we were looking for a good understanding of the neighborhoods in our target region. We gave him a list of 4 homes we wanted to tour and he managed to get us scheduled for all of them and gave us a solid understanding of the flavor of various neighborhoods. He was not put off by our potential need for up to a year to buy (we had some rapidly changing life circumstances.) Colin was great in answering questions by text & email on places we saw on Zillow. As it turned out, we found a home and were in a position to move after only a few month. Because we were not local, Colin was present for several inspections and kept us up to date on any results or issues. We could not have found a more concerned, active advocate on our behalf. We highly recommend Colin Farris for your home search and closing needs.
