I have had plenty of experience buying properties over the last 20 years, but was not sure what to expect with selling for the very first time. Troy and his assistant provided me with clear communication from the beginning of the process to the very end. Personally, a timeline was important so that I could understand what to expect when different aspects came into play. Troy had helpful recommendations on pricing and staging, as well as advice on where to spend (or not spend) money to make the property look and feel more presentable for selling. In an uncertain world - he immediately made things more certain. When I sell my next property, I will certainly be contacting Troy to do the listing!

Troy is a top producer for a very good reason: he knows what he's doing. As someone who lives in the area and has been a realtor for many years, he knows the market extremely well. For our purchase he did his homework before each showing and was always well-prepared. He is also extremely client-centered: he listened carefully to what we wanted, never tried to hurry us along in our decision-making, gave his considered opinion when asked, and was always calm, positive, and forward-looking. We also know that the house we ultimately purchased (and love) could not have happened without his behind-the-scenes negotiating, fact-finding, and problem-solving. We liked and respected him so much, in fact, that he is in the process of selling my girlfriend's home. I have no hesitation in giving Troy the highest recommendation.

After interviewing several viable realtors to assist us in selling our condo, we selected Troy Luchessi and we were so glad we did! He has the expertise, responsiveness and cheerful attitude we were looking for. From the very beginning he provided us information on the current market, made recommendations on staging our unit and ultimately led us to a favorable outcome. We were kept in the loop at all times during the process and all of our questions were answered promptly and clearly. If Troy was unavailable, Colby Coppage was always there to answer our questions whether it be early in the morning, after hours or on the weekends! Our condo was on the market during three major holidays and Colby tirelessly held open houses during those holiday weekends just in case the right buyer should happen by. We highly recommend the Troy-Colby Team at Vanguard. They work well together and together they work with their clients effectively and efficiently to provide the best possible outcome. We thank Troy and Colby for a job very well done!

When it came time to sell my home in Sonoma, I was looking for a realtor who knew the area. Troy was referred to me, and from the minute we met, I knew he was the right realtor for me. He really listens and knows how to get the most for your home... he offers helpful tips and advises on where to spend your money for the biggest bang for your buck. He is aggressive in marketing your home, and knows the market well enough to hep advise on pricing the home, and when to take action. If you are looking for a great, knowledgable realtor, you should definitely work with Troy! You will not be disappointed.

OMG where should I start? Troy had been sharing listings with us for over 9 months. When we were finally ready to buy, we had a very specific area, specific number of rooms, specific layout, specific price point in a very limited market. Troy basically found the needle in the haystack! Early one morning I received a text saying we should go to the broker open house on a property that just opened up. Two days later Troy and his associate, Colby Coppage put together an air-tight offer to the owner. It is thanks to their willingness to move on a dime that we were able to purchase a very sought after property. The Troy-Colby Team at Vanguard provided the expert advice and confidence we needed. We highly recommend this team!

Troy found an amazing deal in a great neighborhood just before it hit the market. I got a great price on the perfect house and swooped the deal. Thanks Troy.

Troy is a "real" real estate agent. He worked with us to find the exact kinds of property we were looking for - an architectural house in a dynamic location with soul that needed reconstruction. Troy has his own amazing personal style and so with confidence he is able to recommend and navigate real estate acquisitions that have good bones. Troy and his team strongly know the details of the Bay Area market and work efficiently to secure financing, negotiate and execute the process.

Troy is a knowledgeable and caring realtor who understands the needs of his clients very well. He is approachable, enthusiastic, charming, thoughtful, and very professional. Troy was extremely helpful and efficient in securing the right home for us, and is very thoughtful and caring about the presentation of our old home, so we can be ready to have it on the market. We couldn’t be happier with Troy as our realtor.

Troy is an honest, straightforward and hardworking agent. We were blessed to find a home that really matched all our expectations and it is really all thanks to Troy’s relentless effort and strong work ethic.

Update: Troy helped me buy a second home in Sonoma in a tough multiple offer situation. I wouldn’t have won the bid (mine wasn’t the highest) if it weren’t for Troy establishing a great rapport with the selling agent and putting together a clean offer with every single form/disclosure completed. Plus we closed on the property in a record 4 days! Troy is by far the best agent I have ever worked with. Troy was so great to work with and provided 5 star service from start to finish. He made my investment property purchase in Tiburon as simple and pain free as possible. The best part about working with Troy is that he’s detail oriented and was very focused on answering any random questions I had, following up on little items that I would forget about, and I felt like he really had my back in the negotiation process. It’s no easy feat to close a sale in 7 days but Troy did it with ease. I would recommend him to anyone.

Troy is the best. He brought so much more to the table than we expected. He is professional, knowledgable, responsive, resourceful and a great negotiator. A+++++ experience. We will recommend Troy to all of our friends and family.

We were very fortunate to have Troy on our team. He communicated clearly, answered all our questions in a timely manner and walked us through the process. His knowledge and professionalism helped us find the right home and his negotiation skills closed the deal quickly. We truely enjoyed working with Troy and have recommended him to our friends. When we are ready to begin looking for another home, he will be the first person we call.
