The reason you choose Tom Santoro is because he is extremely professional. The reason you trust Tom Santoro is because he knows what he's doing. In his own words he's been a real estate agent from before dirt was invented. My family has been working with Tom for generations he helped my parents buy their home, sold my grandfather's house, and helped my wife and buy and sell our home. Go with what you know. If you don't know Tom, get to know him; you'll have an amazing experience.

My husband and I have now worked with Tom as both buyers and sellers and both experiences were smooth and successful. He is incredibly detail oriented and does not miss a thing, which is critical for such sensitive and important transactions. In addition to being incredibly insightful and professional, he is also a genuinely kind and helpful person who will go above and beyond for his clients. He also connects you with equally qualified professionals ranging from inspectors and contractors to loan officers and escrow representatives. The entire team at Crane Real Estate is incredible and there is no one else I would want to work with in real estate.

Bryan helped my husband and I navigate our first home purchase and we greatly appreciated and benefited from his expertise, guidance, clear and incredibly fast communications, and especially his patience with all of our questions. He was always available and helped us every step of the way, including with vendor recommendations after closing. We highly recommend working with Bryan and will be recommending him to our family & friends when they are ready to buy or sell.

Bryan and the Devore Realty team made us feel supported every step of the way while selling our home and purchasing a new one at the same time. Bryan’s expertise, organization, and thoughtful guidance kept every moving part on track and made the entire experience feel seamless from start to finish. Bryan and his team were exceptionally attentive, responsive, and communicative throughout the entire process. They anticipated our needs, provided clear direction, and always made us feel that our best interests were their top priority. Their patience, encouragement, and steady support gave us confidence during what could have been a very stressful transition. We couldn’t be happier with the outcome or more grateful for the care Bryan showed us throughout the journey. We highly recommend Bryan Devore and the Devore Realty team to anyone buying or selling a home. If you want knowledgeable, organized, and genuinely caring guidance, they are an excellent choice.
Buyer of 902 Royal Tern Way, Oceanside
Working with Bryan was a genuinely positive experience from start to finish. Even though our time working together was relatively brief, it was clear right away that we were in good hands. Bryan communicated clearly and promptly at every step, making sure we always knew what was happening and what to expect next — there was never a moment where we felt left in the dark or unsure of the process. What really stood out was their deep knowledge of the 55+ housing market. It's clear this isn't just a side specialty for them — they understand the unique needs, priorities, and pace that come with this stage of life, and they brought genuine expertise and thoughtfulness to every conversation. That kind of specialized insight makes a real difference when you're navigating a market that doesn't always get the attention it deserves. Overall, Bryan is professional, reliable, and easy to work with. Even in a limited engagement, their solid communication and market knowledge left a strong impression, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for an agent who truly understands the 55+ community.

Seller of 1418 Kenora Street, Escondido
People caring about their craft- people, caring about kindness - people being creative and thoughtful and having patience- is a lost art. Thankfully, Tania is that kind of person in every area of the real estate business, a business which makes most of us nervous, but she took the worry out of everything.
Seller of 29122 Vista Valley Drive, Vista
We called Tania Ventura #4…..she was the 4th agent to list our house within the year. She provided the Best marketing, best plan and actually followed up with everything she said unlike all of her predecessors. Her continued communication was the key with us as well as potential buyers. Not only did she find a buyer in the worst market ever during the holidays…she had numerous open houses that blew away the competition. She is the neighborhood realtor now in The Havens and everyone loves her. Her dedication is remarkable and we greatly appreciate all the hard work. It wasn’t easy but she did it. Great job #4 you went above and beyond! If you want results and the truth call Tania you will be so happy you did.
Seller of 231 Cananea Street, Vista
Tania came highly recommended by family. When my wife and I first met Tania, her first priority was to make sure we both fully understood the steps of selling our first home. She was empathetic to us expecting our first baby, and made it her priority to meet our timelines. Quick to adjust and pivot while making every step of the way easy. 10/10 would recommend to anyone I know buying or selling a home.

Seller of 48-b/31573 E Nine Dr, Laguna Niguel
Mark has been a family friend for over 10+ years, that alone speaks volumes. Working with Mark has been a great experience because he has put my best interests first, not just a realtor but a friend. I felt he always had an ear to listen and really cared about my thoughts. He has always given the most honest and insightful advice in difficult situations. As this was our first sale, we have riddled Mark with questions and concerns from our inexperience and Mark has answered all of our questions thoughtfully and kindly. His advice landed us an all cash buyer and an extended lease back while we search for our next home!
