I am taking this time to recommend Steve to you. Steve has very specific knowledge of Real Estate and has great seller and buyer skills. On our open house, Steve was very personable. He provided the buyers crucial information which made buyers very interested in what he had to say. We obtained a buyer on his first open house! He was able to handle every step of the sale intelligently, observantly, proactively and most of all, expeditiously! He obviously has a people-service philosophy. I will call him Friend.

Steven’s experience and professionalism from taking the listing to explaining the offers to close of escrow was above and beyond all expectations. Steve was excellent in maintaining communications throughout the process which is priceless for clients during a hectic and sometimes stressful process of buying or selling a home. We would recommend Steven to friends and family alike without reservations.

Steve is the perfect combination of personable and professional. He offered more than I ever expected from a realtor. Leaving my home of 45 years could have been a traumatic experience, but with Steve’s ever present support I made the transition smoothly and without incident. He did not pressure me between the time I first talked with him and seven months later when I actually put the house up for sale. He was immediately available for most of my calls. When he wasn’t he texted me and told me he’d call back soon, which he always did. He went above and beyond when he actually cleaned my refrigerator. I highly recommend Steve’s services without reservation.

Amidst the chaos of a frenzied market, Steve was a calming anchor for us. Extremely knowledgeable and experienced, he kept us posted on what we could expect at every step along the way, and answered every question (we had a lot!) with his wonderful sense of humor intact. He went so far above and beyond, from installing the extra smoke detectors we needed himself, to meeting the plumber at our house when the outdoor tap blew a gasket on the first day of showing! Always quick to respond by phone and text, Steve always made us feel we were his top priority. In the end, by following Steve’s excellent advice, we had dozens of offers to choose from, and sold our home of 30+ years for well above our asking price. My husband and I could not be happier that Steve was recommended to us, and we are pleased to now recommend him to anyone in need of a solid, responsive, and responsible agent.

What a pleasure it was having Steve Ristaino as my realtor selling my home. Steve is very knowledgeable in all areas of real estate. He was on top of every issue from the beginning to the end. I never had to worry about a thing. If you are considering selling or buying a home Steve is the guy to have on your side. If I ever need to buy or sell again I will call Steve.

We first met Steve when we were considering selling our home in 2017. After interviewing others, we selected him as our agent. He studied our property, did the market analysis, and even took some of our hazardous waste to the local facility. Then we decided not to sell after all. He took it in stride and gave us a subscription to his magazine. Almost three years later, we called him just to discuss an article in the magazine. That led to a discussion of the crazy virus-distorted 2020 real estate prices and we decided again to sell our home. It is an unusual home, built to our design in 1978 with many solar and "smart" features that put it 20 years ahead of its time. But that was 40 years ago and it was showing its age. It clearly required a special buyer. Steve again analyzed the market and gave us good information on preparing and pricing it. It soon sold for about what Steve predicted. Then we left California and left the house in Steve's hands with a lot of detail work yet to be finished. Steve took care of everything before and after we left, down to helping carry boxes from the attic and cleaning the oven himself. He's the best.

Steve was very responsive to all my texts and emails. We 1 million + house in California , sight unseen from our condo in Florida. We never actually set foot into the house until weeks after closing and moving out of our condo in Florida. House was in great location, great house...no issues....everything we thought it would be and more. This was the end of a many month search . Steve also helped us get a good price in a very tough sellers market here. I cant say enough about him. He is worth every penny he earned in commission, as well as our trust.

I just completed a very challenging move from Florida to my new home in Rancho Cucamonga . Steve was very helpful in locating and negotiating my new home. ...and making sure I was in the loop every step of the way , even from the other side of the country. He was willing to pass up many homes that did not appear to be so turn key. ...and made sure we knew what his thoughts were , even though they did not favor getting him a sale. Finally, we got a winner and were able to get best price in a very seller market with his skill and expertise. We trusted Steve so completely , we bought home from our condo in Florida, sight unseen. I think that says it all....except that it doesn't end there . Steve staid with us the entire closing process , inspection, and even well after we mover in. Helping us with all the small things that you have to deal with when moving cross country to a new home. In this kind of sellers market , just finding a good home, in a good location , is not an easy thing. Steve made this easy. It was not. Especially doing everything from the other side of county . The first time we ever saw our new home was when we moved into it ...over a month after signing the contract. It did not disappoint. There were no bad surprises . Only good ones.

Steve was Amazing!! I live in San Diego and we needed to buy a home in Upland for our Mom. Our schedules and the distance did not allow us to be proactive in searching for that perfect place! Steve produced beautiful homes for sale and did our tours via video chat! We loved a home, placed our offer and offer was accepted!! Escrow was opened the next day! It was that easy and we didn't even have to leave our house! Steve was a bit nervous that we were in escrow and we hadn't been up to see the property. We made the trip up and YES! The house was better in real life!! Steve made the transaction so easy! His professionalism, knowledge, and attitude make him the BEST in Class! We loved him so much that we used him on another home purchase in San Diego! Thanks Steve!!
