I chose Trina to help sell my Long Beach condo because I wanted an agent who was knowledgeable and experienced, familiar with my area, and a good communicator. She had many positive reviews so she was the first agent I met to discuss the sale. After that meeting, I was convinced that Trina was the agent I wanted. She answered all my questions and gave me the information I needed to set the listing price and understand what to expect. We got a good offer right away, from a motivated buyer. We were initially told the escrow would be short, and Trina was busy getting activities such as appraisal and home inspection scheduled promptly. As it happened, the escrow dragged on as the lender failed to deliver on promises. It was stressful, but I felt confident that I had Trina protecting my interests and providing the information I needed. When an agent needs to deal with problems, you really find out if they know what they are doing and are willing to work to find a solution, and Trina showed that she is an excellent agent. I was pleased with Trina’s performance and glad I had her helping get the deal closed.

We have had the pleasure of working with Trina during both sale and purchase of different properties. Throughout both experiences, Trina was knowledgeable, responsive, understanding, and effective. Her years of experience as a real estate agent really show in her knowledge of the process (sales and purchase), her skills as a negotiator, and her communication with all parties involved. Trina showed patience as we navigated a very difficult housing market while also being extremely discerning. We wholeheartedly recommend Trina for your real estate needs.

We contacted Trina as soon as we decided to renovate and sell our condo after many years as a rental. She worked with us to optimize the paint colors, counter tops, and flooring to ensure a quick sale. After an unbelievable series of setbacks with uncooperative contractors, plumbing issues, and roof leaks that needed repairs, she stuck with us for the entire duration. We live out of state, and she was our only true advocate in the area. She is very persistent and worked relentlessly on our behalf to move the process forward. With her strategic recommendations, we finally got the unit listed, received an all-cash offer within 7 days, and closed 14 days later! There is nobody in Southern California I would trust more than Trina.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Trina Rufo while selling my aunt's house, and I can't recommend her enough! Trina was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process. She took the time to organize everything and ensured that every detail was handled efficiently. Her expertise and attention to detail made the selling process incredibly smooth and stress-free. If you're looking for a dedicated professional to help you with real estate, Trina is the one to call!

Trina provided excellent wrap-around realtor expertise on the sale of a family home. Because it was an unexpected sale, we appreciated professional references for upgrades and staging, along with her time dedicated to achieving a successful price, marketing and having a team of professionals . The escrow and title teammates, made the negotiations after inspection and appraisal smooth as well. We appreciate Trina’s wealth of experience, genuine concern for seller and buyer and her prompt reply to Email/Text. Thank you Sincerely.

Trina was a pleasure to work with. She helped us find a home in Southern California while we were still living on the east coast, which itself was a challenge! As soon as we planned a short trip to visit homes in our desired area, she made sure to immediately contact the appropriate personnel so that we would make the best use of our time and have the best chance to find our next home. And once our offer was accepted, she was a FANTASTIC liaison between everyone involved (loan officer, seller agent, escrow officer, us, etc.) - she made sure that everyone was on the same page and was an excellent communicator. She has a wealth of property knowledge and provided us with such valuable insight during the home-buying process! She put us at ease during this transition, and we would highly recommend her to others.

The best decision my family made was hiring Trina. She handled every aspect of the sale and a new purchase of a home with outstanding professionalism. Her knowledge of the market is exceptional. Our home for sale was under contract in 5 days, and we closed on our new home just 6 weeks later. Her communication is excellent and she continuously advocated for us along the way. What a blessing to have Trina on our team!

Trina sold a relative's run down house by creating a successful (and fun!) bidding war and getting us more that we had expected.

We had a run down house to help a relative sell from Northern California. We needed to find an agent in Long Beach with whom we felt comfortable. Trina stood out so we went with her. We had a long prep time before the house was ready and Trina was patient and supportive the whole time. Once we were ready to sell, Trina devised a strategy to create a bidding war that worked out far better than we had expected. Trina's youthful enthusiasm was a constant joy. She was never arrogant nor impatient with our learning steps as we came up to speed with her help. In fact, I looked forward to our daily calls to discuss offers and further strategy. The end result (the cash in hand) was better than we had expected. I would only use Trina in the future and would recommend her to anyone.

Trina assisted my Mom purchase a new condo and sell her long time home. Since my Mom had not bought a home since the 1970's it was a very stressful time in her life. Trina was exceptional in her professionalism, communication and kindness. She was always a phone call away and was willing to answer any question that we had. Selling a home is not an easy process especially a home that has been in the family for 90 years but Trina made it painless. If you are thinking of buying or selling call Trina and you won't be disappointed. She is the best!!!

Trina is the best!!! Absolutely walked with us through the entire process of selling our home. Made it a genuinely awesome experience. She is so friendly and kind. Wants the very best for her clients. So blessed to have had Trina by our side.

Trina did an amazing job using her knowledge and expertise to guide us through the difficult process of selling our home. Due to Trina's strategic marketing strategy, we were able to sell our home for well over asking price, in a market that has slowed down due to rising interest rates. I highly recommend Trina Rufo to care for any of your Real Estate needs.
