Seller of 78955 Via Florence, La Quinta
Roddy was virtually always available, always on top of everything, and had the most brilliant, disarming and effective strategies which resulted in successful negotiations throughout the process. He should be involved in the Middle East peace talks! I call him the “Human A.I.”, because his input is always experience- or fact-based (due to his almost encyclopedic knowledge of the real estate market). He’s a magician who can turn any potential “negative” into a legitimate positive, and it’s done in an instant. He’s the real deal: knowledgable, efficient, solution-oriented, honest, hard-working, well-connected, and consistently upholds high ethical standards. He is truly a realtor “super hero.”
Seller of 33411 San Lucas Trail, Thousand Palms
Roddy and his entire team that worked with us to get our home sold were truly assets that elevated the sell of our property in the span of a little over a month. After trying to sell the property for several months with very little interest, they were able to come in with precision laser focus on marketing tactics, signage, staging and advice on what was going to happen step by step to get the property sold and they did just that! Roddy has the experience and knowledge to be able to give good advice in the beginning, middle and all the way to closing out the sale. Negotiations are no exception. When things came up, Roddy offered his professional advice to help further the process along. He offers sound advice and does not get overly anxious in what can be a very trying time. It definitely helps to have someone with his knowledge, discipline, and his sense of humor to keep the process flowing smoothly. I had the priviledge of working as a Redfin associate agent with Roddy when I first moved to Coachella Valley in 2018. I knew he would be the agent to get our house sold, if I could get him, but I did not know his current market or situation. Turns out he works everywhere. As a showing agent, I had seen many homes that Randy La Combe (stager and his crew) had performed miracles on and the homes sold quickly. They have a process and it works like a fine Swiss clock! Special shout out to Randy LaCombe and his crew with his impeccable ability to stage even the most challenging homes. After he staged our place I was sad I couldn't move back in! It was beautiful! Sarah Carino, who assisted Roddy with the sale, was very professional. She was always on time for open houses, showings and very helpful logistically in helping us gather up things for the HOA as we were not local at the time of the sale process. We are so grateful for your help Sarah. Thank you all very much!

Buyer of 34740 Jennifer Dr, Wildomar
He was so patient as we sought out the perfect house. Honesty is his priority. He always advocated for us to give our best and final, which saved us loads of time avoiding game-playing seller, inexperienced agents, and problematic properties. He stayed within our price range, ensured we were protected during escrow (saved us thousands), and kept us apprised every step of the way. We were able to safety walk away from a house that didn't appraise at the asking and one that failed to meet our escrow timeline. Troy's experience and education ensured that we closed on the right house for us, in only 18 days! He truly listens to his buyers, never pushing or inserting his own opinion. When we started to get desperate in the limited market, he consistently reminded us of the priorities and values we shared at the beginning, landing us the absolutely perfect property at the perfect price and a few extras! Troy is the best you could hope for in an agent: knowledgeable, determined, communicative, and easy going (even with high needs clients like us!)
Seller of 8405 Manhasset Street, Riverside
If you want the top real estate agent in the region, look up Troy Smith Realtor—his incredible reputation and track record of over 130 five-star reviews across major real estate platforms are completely well-earned! We hired Troy to sell our 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom, 3,100-square-foot home at 8405 Manhasset Street in the premier Orangecrest neighborhood of Riverside (92508), and he delivered a masterclass in professional service. From day one, Troy guided us with absolute integrity, transparency, and a level of honesty that built complete trust throughout the entire transaction. Even though our property lacked some neighborhood premiums like a pool, Troy’s expert marketing and negotiation skills got us absolute top dollar. We listed at $768,888 and closed at an incredible $800,000! He took us into a quick escrow and handled a fast, seamless close while always fiercely protecting our best interests. Troy is a dominant, highly trustworthy, top-producing listing agent based in Temecula who provides top-notch customer service across the entire county. Five stars all the way!
Seller of 23992 Chatenay Lane, Murrieta
If you are looking for the absolute best Realtor in Murrieta, CA, look no further! He recently sold my home at 23992 Chatenay Lane, delivering exactly what he promised on day one by hitting our $750,000 target. Our property needed some professional guidance to get market-ready, and his expert eye and beautiful staging completely transformed the space for a stunning photo shoot. His targeted marketing and frequent open houses generated massive turnout from buyers every single time. What impressed me most was his negotiation skill and fierce protection of my interests. This was a tough, complex sale where we had two separate buyers try to unfairly change the contract terms mid-stream, but he held his ground and quickly pivoted when they failed to perform. Even though managing these difficult buyers stretched our total time from listing to close to 5.5 months, his tenacity, ethics, and hard work never wavered for a single second. He was always responsive, diligent, and even connected us with a phenomenal referral Realtor for our out-of-state move. While his main office is in neighboring Temecula, he is hands-down the premier real estate expert for Murrieta and the surrounding cities. Five stars!

Christopher was outstanding throughout the entire home-buying process. He was always professional, friendly, and easy to communicate with. He took the time to answer all of my questions, kept me informed every step of the way, and made the whole experience as stress-free as possible. His knowledge of the market and attention to detail gave me confidence in every decision. I truly appreciated his patience, honesty, and dedication to helping me find the right home. I would highly recommend Christopher to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy realtor.
Buyer of 6972 Jetty Court, Jurupa Valley
I have known Christopher for over ten years. He is a very knowledgeable and resourceful realtor. My family was treated with utmost respect. He is also patient, responsive, and a good listener. I will be glad to do all my future real estate transactions with Christopher because I just feel comfortable with him, no gimmick.
Seller of 16915 Wood Road, Riverside
Chris is the most helpful real estate agent I have ever worked with. He helped me solve many problems that I should have solved myself when preparing my property for sale. The occupants of my property were struggling to vacate, he personally advised them on how to remove their belongings in the most efficient and least costly way. When they ran into problems he suggested solutions. Chris also continually kept me advised of the status of the occupants move from the property. Overall, Chris was active above and beyond his required duties that resulted in a sale price much higher than expected.
