TESTIMONIALS
What others are saying
Tez is absolutely wonderful to work with. It’s like having a friend on the “inside” that is working for you. He really cares about his clients as well as the community and neighborhood he lives in. His experience and wealth of knowledge is paramount when it comes to negotiations and getting your offer accepted. I couldn’t recommend him enough to anyone looking to buy an investment property, first time home, or even their last home.
Roy Bennett
Santez helped and gave insight at each step of the process (it had been 20+ years since we bought our last house). He was very conversant in all the steps and what was coming next. His local knowledge helped us come to an agreement with the seller. Santez represented our interests very well.
Kelly Sandoval
Tez kept my best interest in mind for the entire time I worked with him. Even when it meant less for him. Honest, loyal, super kind agent. A true pleasure to work with. It’s definitely the best experience of ever had buying a home! Tez for pres ??

Down payment requirements vary by loan type and program. Many buyers successfully purchase with as little as 3-5% down, while some specialized programs offer zero-down options for qualified buyers.

From initial search to closing, most buyers complete their purchase within 45-60 days. Market conditions and financing complexity can affect timeline.
