We had a great experience working with Brandon Smith as our realtor. He was patient, understanding, and always honest with us throughout the sale of our home. One of the things we appreciated most was his integrity. He was never just trying to “make a deal,” but truly focused on our best interests. Brandon was always available, communicated with us consistently, and made the entire process convenient and well-organized. He worked closely with us on planning and setup and was very helpful every step of the way. We’ve known Brandon for years, and he has always remained reliable and trustworthy. He never fails to prioritize our best interests, and that gave us a lot of confidence throughout the process. We are very grateful for his help and highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

I have a lot of experience building, buying and selling homes. I hired Brandon, based off a reputable referral, to sell one of my rentals in the Rice Ranch neighborhood of Orcutt. Brandon was professional and personable, but more importantly he was effective. I was largely an absentee seller in the transaction thanks to Brandon’s effective management of the transaction. Brandon got me more money than I was expecting for the house, got it into escrow quicker than I expected, and closed the transaction in less than 30 days. I don’t think there’s much more I could ask for in a seller’s agent.

From the moment we listed our home with Brandon he was committed to the success of the process. His knowledge of the local market was clear an and he produced marketing materials that highlighted the key features of pur home. Because Brandon and his family have been in the realty business for so many years, he is well known by local realtors and has a solid relationship with them. Our house sold because a local contact reached to Brandon with an “hey buddy” text. Even after our house sold, Brandon remained attentive to every detail and continued to handle requests from the buyer and from us. If you are looking for a committed kind and knowledgeable realtor, Brandon is the one!

We interviewed several real estate agents before deciding to work with Jason Francia and his team to sell our home in Orcutt, California. We knew our home was worth more than what other agents were telling us, but several agents suggested listing nearly $100,000 lower than where Jason believed we could sell it. There had been a recent home sale nearby that sold for much less, but Jason took the time to explain why that property was not a true comparison and showed us a strong marketing and pricing strategy that made sense. After meeting with Jason and his team, we felt confident moving forward. We knew we were asking top dollar for our home, but Jason’s marketing, negotiation skills, and work ethic gave us confidence that he could get it done. Within the first week on the market, we received a full price offer with the terms we wanted. We are so thankful we chose Jason Francia and his team. If you are looking to sell a home in Orcutt, Santa Maria, Nipomo, Vandenberg Village, Lompoc, San Luis Obispo, or anywhere on the Central Coast, we highly recommend them. Their knowledge of the local market, communication, and ability to deliver results truly set them apart.

I’ve known Jason Francia personally for many years and trusted him completely when it came time to sell my mom’s home in Santa Maria. This wasn’t a simple sale. We had to coordinate the sale of two properties in order to purchase another, and it came with a lot of moving parts. Jason and his team handled everything with professionalism and care. He got us substantially over asking price, and we were able to sell the home as is, which was a huge relief. What made this even more meaningful was working with someone I’ve known since he was the youth pastor at Santa Maria Foursquare Church. I’m so glad we worked with Jason. He made a complicated process feel manageable and gave us full confidence every step of the way.
3822 Jupiter Ave Vandenberg Village
Our experience with our previous real estate agent was disappointing, so we decided to interview multiple agents to find the perfect fit. When we met Jason, his extensive experience and marketing plan truly stood out, making us feel very confident in his abilities. As a military couple selling our home in Vandenberg Village, we're thrilled to have chosen Jason... he met our high standards and exceeded our expectations.

Jeff Oien is not only the best realtor we could have found to help sell my mother’s home—he is also an extraordinary person. Jeff became a true gift in our lives, both professionally and personally. He sold my 90-year-old mother’s home in about a month. While we joked that it might have been partly divine intervention, I know it was truly Jeff. His interpersonal skills, deep knowledge of San Vicente Mobile Home Park, and extensive real estate experience made this sale possible. I will never be able to thank him enough for what he did for my mother, myself, and our family. We are forever grateful to Jeff.

Era could see that I was overwhelmed from the beginning. She reassured me at every fork in the road; every part of the process. Her experience in real estate and her connection to people is what makes her stand out from the pack. Being a pet owner I had particular worries about how showings could be managed and how I was going to navigate selling my home while not throwing the household into turmoil. Era was fantastic making certain I was at ease and put together a plan that worked for everyone. She understands people and recognizes what they need to be successful from start to finish when it comes to buying or selling a home. It is a huge decision for many of us and that confidence you receive when you know your agent understands you, has years of experience in the field and really cares that you are happy with the outcome. She made all of the difference in the world to me and I cannot thank her enough!
1012 West Anthony Way Lompoc
Era is the best. She has been our “go to” agent for at least 10 years. She has helped us on 4 sales, and 2 purchases, both investment and personal properties. This last sale, of a rental home on a 1031 exchange was incredible. The house was in terrible shape, we thought it best to just take our losses and sell ‘as is”. Era, and her team of contractors, cleaners, painters etc… restored the house, even tho we were living in Utah. Sticking to her guidance, and with her personal involvement in getting the house ready to sell, everything went smoothly and we are 110% satisfied. I can’t thank her enough.

Era is not only a wonderful human being, but also an excellent real estate agent. She makes sure you will sell your house for the best price and shortest time. Anybody who is not using her as an agent is missing out. Thank you Era for all you have done for us
