Sergio Sosa, Security Pacific Real Estate - Pinole, California

Jason Young

Sergio has helped us through two transactions - the purchase of our home in El Sobrante and the selling of our home seven years later. As buyers, Sergio took the time to understand what we were looking for and in a challenging buyers market he was able to advise us on location and offer strategy - ultimately finding us the perfect home. As we planned a move, seven years later, Sergio represented us in the sale of our home. He worked with us to prepare our home for sale and recommended updates to attract as many buyers as possible. He also helped us find vendors for the updates. We were very happy with the sale of our home.

If you work with Sergio, expect a tremendous communicator, a level headed and client advocating negotiator, and a fiduciary that will have your best interests in mind at all times. Thank you Sergio for all you have done for our family.

A+ ...... SERIOUSLY. So I wanted to take some time from furiously packing, to write this review and say a public thank you to Sergio.

When we started this process as 1st time home buyers, we knew what we wanted, but weren't sure we could afford it. For months Sergio was incredibly patient, he made suggestions along the way about places to look or things we might have to give up to make the dream a reality. But we never felt pushed and always felt that he had time for us and our requests either for disclosure packet, after disclosure packet, after disclosure packet or to see houses often at odd hours because of work and young kids in our house. There was a level of patience and understanding there at all times that made the process, feel a lot better than it probably should have.

A month or so ago, we didn't offer on a house and had regrets. We asked Sergio to follow up with the listing agent and Sergio put the deal together through no shortage of persistence and determination.

Again, when we ran into issues in what was a very short escrow, he was as calm as possible. No drama, no pressure, just a keen understanding of what we needed to get done and the ability to do just that.

I can't recommend him highly enough. If you want a calming presence as part of your home search, while at the same time, a Realtor who is ready to get the deal across the finish line when the time comes, he's an outstanding choice and one of the best choices we made during this entire process.

I recently closed on my first home with Sergio's help and I can't recommend him highly enough. This can be such an intimidating process but Sergio's patience, honesty, and attention to detail made it easier. No text or email ever went unanswered, and he went above and beyond smoothing out the inevitable speed bumps, even those that popped up at the end of the day (which they always seemed to do). Sergio pulled dozens and dozens of disclosures and wrote at least ten offers for me in 6+ months; and even though I was using a few different first time homebuyer programs that required probably more paperwork than the average offer, his enthusiasm and quality of follow-up never flagged. I'm so grateful for his time and support, and recommend him to anyone looking for someone to have in their corner as they navigate the Bay Area housing market. Thank you, Sergio!

I just sold my condo so very excited and relieved. Sergio was very instrumental as my realtor to get me to this point. The process was demanding and the prospects seemed daunting (based upon reports from media outlets) for a successful sale. Sergio helped me to set realistic expectations and provided a lot of good information, tips and recommendations that kept me moving forward through the critical steps of the journey to sale. There were times along the way that he had to talk/walk me through anxious thoughts and concern which was really needed and appreciated. Overall I was not on the market long before I had an offer. I definitely would recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor. He is very personable, professional and knowledgeable.

I would recommend Sergio in a heartbeat, he was such a pleasure to work with from beginning to end. The whole experience was new to me, but Sergio's knowledge, expertise, problem solving mindset, and thorough understanding of the housing market, not only made me feel at ease, but gave me the trust I needed to instill in someone to guide me with confidence in the pursuit of my first home purchase. When you interact with Sergio you will immediately notice his professionalism, work ethic, and experience in the housing market. He seemed to have all the answers to my real estate questions all the while being so grounded and understanding, and whenever in doubt of any question he would be quick to do his research and get back to me right away. He was always available when I called or messaged him. Sergio has amazing communication skills both verbally and written, and that to me is unbeatable! What I most liked about Sergio, was the way he broke things down and explained things to me, being that it was all a new experience for me. Sergio was patient, optimistic yet realistic, friendly yet competent, honest and respectful in his point of view, and he made my home buying experience a great one. Thank you so much Sergio!

We feel so lucky that we stumbled across Sergio Sosa, He is intimately familiar with the Contra Costa county area and has a ton of "inside" knowledge about all community’s. He really understood our needs and went above and beyond to deliver. We are local and after getting out-bid on some houses, we were getting frustrated. We saw a house we liked online and He went that same day to do a walk through with us. We love the house and decided to move forward to bid on it, and less than 30 days he walked us through the whole process, and we close escrow on our first home, we know that always can count on Sergio to respond immediately (usually within minutes) to my questions and concerns. I would highly recommend Sergio Sosa, for your real state needs!!!!!

Sergio helped us list and sold our home in Hercules, CA and we could not have been happier with his expert performance throughout the entire process. He gave us very helpful suggestions on staging the home and helped us pick an asking price that yielded several overbids. Sergio also worked very hard at our open houses, and really generated a lot of interest and enthusiasm about our property. In the end, he was able to close the deal at 10% above asking price, at a final sale price that we felt very happy with given the comparable homes on the market at the time. Sergio was extremely helpful and patient throughout the process, and worked tirelessly to close the deal quickly and remove the various contingencies that came with the offer. Several negotiations were required to close the deal, and there was a lot of back and forth, but Sergio dealt with us and and the buyer in a very responsive, open, and honest manner that really helped to expedite the process. I highly recommend Sergio and will definitely work with him again for future real estate transactions.

Sergio is exceptional at what he does. He provides consultative expertise at every stage of the home buying process that gives his clients peace of mind. From locating potential homes, to scheduling viewing itineraries, to recommending and speaking with lenders, to negotiating with sellers on his clients’ behalf, Sergio offers a comprehensive set of services that you can trust and that distinguish him in the real estate marketplace. He was instrumental in helping my wife and I purchase a home in the North Bay and made himself available at any time for us to call him with any questions. He has detailed knowledge and experience in every aspect of purchasing a home, knows the Bay Area market inside and out, and takes the time to thoughtfully guide his clients throughout the entire process. If you are looking for an expert agent, you will find one in Sergio. I highly recommend!
