Sebastien was an exceptional real estate agent throughout our entire home-buying process. His availability and support were unmatched—he was always there to answer both big and small questions. His sharp negotiation skills helped us secure the best deal possible, and he managed the transaction with such professionalism that everything went incredibly smoothly.

If you’re looking for a top-notch real estate agent in Alameda, look no further than Sebastien Colas. From the moment we started working with Sebastien, it was clear that he was not only exceptionally knowledgeable about the Alameda area but also truly dedicated to his clients. Sebastien is incredibly hard-working and persistent, never hesitating to go the extra mile to ensure that we found our perfect home, at the right price. His deep understanding of the local market, combined with his status as an Alameda resident, gave us invaluable insights into neighborhoods and properties that truly met our needs. What really set Sebastien apart was his unwavering availability and willingness to listen. No matter what time of day or night, he was always just a phone call or text away, ready to answer questions or provide guidance. He took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for and didn’t stop until he found it. Thanks to Sebastien’s expertise and dedication, we not only found a fantastic house in the neighborhood we wanted, but also felt confident and supported throughout the entire process. We also experienced a very smooth closing process due in large part to Sebastien's attention to every detail. Sebastien continues to be a valuable resource for local service pros, as well as providing excellent advise for home improvement and maintenance. We couldn’t have asked for a better real estate agent, and we highly recommend Sebastien to anyone looking to buy or sell in Alameda. He’s simply the best!

Professional with a positive attitude

Professional with a positive attitude

We were new to the area from Canada. He reminded us that flood insurance is mandatory for certain areas in the city we are interested in, and also told us the estimated cost for the flood insurance. It’s expensive considering it is annual. He also pointed out the discount points of a mortgage to our attention after seeing both of our mortgage pre-approvals. It turned out that the meaning of discount point is completely different between US and Canada. That alone saved us 30k plus. Sebastien always guards our information as per our request. While placing our offer for a house asking for 1.5 million, Sebastien suggested to start at 1.52 for the initial offer and we agreed. We told him that there were still some room and we thought even 1.55 is fair for this house. The seller countered all offers at 1.53. It indicated that Sebastien didn’t even hint the seller agent about our bottom line. We withdrew from the second round of offer due to personal issues. The house was finally sold at 1.54 million. We submitted 3 different offers. Sebastien would briefly go over the process with us afterwards each time. After the house is pending, he usually knows the final sale price right away. As a result, for all transactions, we were all spot on estimating the final sale prices. We backed up at the last step for the previous offers due to some issues we just couldn’t get over with. What he said to us is that if we wanted to get that house we could have got it. But most important thing is to get a house you will not regret. His positive attitude was quite encouraging and comforting. We finally purchased a house we like with his help. Sebastien provided excellent after services. We ran into gas auto-shut off valve issue after we moved in. He came over twice. The first time occurred around 9pm on a Saturday. When problem was not solved, he arranged the plumber coming on Sunday to fix it and he came as well. He even checked in again the next day to make sure this issue got resolved.

Excellent real estate agent to work with

Excellent real estate agent to work with

My family recently relocated to Alameda and my company's relocation agent found Sebastien as the local real estate agent for me. I spoke to Sebastien over the phone and was impressed by his knowledge of housing stocks in the Alameda area and his experience in helping clients buy homes in a highly competitive market. I decided to work with him. He is very responsive and gave us many good tips and advice in the home-buying process. He also recommended several very good lenders. He gave honest feedback while we toured the houses. In the end, he referred us to an off-market house, which we liked and bought. The process was very smooth and effortless. I truly enjoy working with Sebastien and will recommend him to anyone looking for a home in the Bay Area.

Sebastien was an incredible realtor to work with. He was kind, supportive, & I always felt like he had our best interests in mind during the search for a home and the offer negotiations. As a first time buyer I couldn’t have asked for a better person to assist with this major milestone. Sebastien fought hard for us and helped us secure a great deal on our dream first home. I will absolutely be seeking his help with any future property purchases.

Sebastien pays attention to your wants and needs and follows through.

Sebastien was wonderful. He was able to sell the house in 45 days from receiving contract to handing over the keys. He was at my side every step of the way - hiring stager, repairman, estate sellers, gardeners and dealing with legal documents. Always returned calls right away and kept me informed every step of the way. I would highly recommend him, he made me feel comfortable throughout the process.

Sebastien listens and will follow through on requests with attention to requirements. No time was wasted on homes outside my area and prices. Additionally I felt I had access to Sebastien 24/7 without limits.

We so enjoyed working with Sebastien on the process of buying our first home. What I immediately appreciated about Sebastien was how low-pressure he was. We were in no rush to buy + very picky, and he totally got that and sent us relevant listings and checked in periodically for a good while until we found the perfect house. Sebastien has a great network of trusted home professionals and he put us in contact with several to get estimates on work that would need to be done, which helped us feel more confident about our offer price. Sebastien really knows how to make the process understandable and enjoyable--we never felt overwhelmed. He is a pleasure to worth with and a true pro at what he does.

Beyond my expectations

Beyond my expectations

My partner and I were moving out of state for work and we chose Sebastien as our realtor. He was professional, kind, and understanding during our busy moving process. Our moving process took us a few months from start to finish, and he was there to assist us, and answer any questions we had, every step of the way. I've had to work with a few realtors in my adult life, and Sebastien has been above and beyond, my favorite realtor to work with. I don't think I could have had a better experience with anyone else. You can tell he loves what he does and he cares about the experience/outcome for the buyers.
