Brezsny Associates, Sereno - Santa Cruz, California

When I first considered selling my house in Ben Lomond, I attended Tom Brezsny’s evening sessions on downsizing and decluttering and “went to school” on how to prepare my house for placing it on the market. Tom and Daniel Wolford handled the sale of the house and provided great ideas, advice and resources for preparing the house, doing necessary repairs, updating to enhance curb appeal, and putting it on the market with the goal of receiving multiple offers and a final sales price exceeding asking. The end result was within two weeks of the house going on the MLS, it sold for the over asking price and a 21 day escrow. I couldn’t be happier with the professional, no hassle services provided by Tom and Daniel of Brezsny Associates, Christie’s Sereno.

Scarlett and Dan came to our rescue when we wanted to sell our home and we highly recommend them as real estate agents! Friends recommended them because Scarlett and Dan found them their dream home after a two-year search! The husband and wife team along with the family are the most honest, upfront salt of the earth high performers in this often dull market filled with a lot of mediocre agents! They helped us successfully sell our is house in under a week! We had to make a cash offer on our new home without any contingencies and close escrow in 30 days and they helped us achieve both objectives. We received two offers in one weekend! They helped us list, stage, advertise, clean up, decorate - complete with vendors (tree trimming, window cleaning, etc) and inspection reports so we were ready to sell as soon as we listed. Their videographer was the bomb and took incredible shots highlighting the home. And the brochures and advertisements they produced were golden. House sold in one weekend with two offers in a declining market! They even helped us rent back our home with favorable terms after the deal closed. Close your eyes and trust them. They are miracle workers and work hard endlessly to sell your home!

The Brezsny team provided an extremely competent and caring home sales experience. From the initial review of the property and our goals to the final wrap up of offers, we felt we were in good hands, and we were proved right. It was a team effort: preparing and staging the house, contacting prospective buyers, trying hard to get us the best price for our home. And we felt comfortable as they kept us in the loop every step of the way. Can't imagine how it could have gone better. And they are great folks to be with and deal with as well.

I worked with Dax Nollenberger of Brezny Associates, Sereno, on and off for three years. He and his team were always patient, friendly, helpful and available. He checked in with me even when I wasn't active in the market. I can't even think of any qualities that you would want in an agent that he did not have. If he didn't have the answers, he and his team always did the work to get me the information I needed. Maybe most importantly, I always felt they had my best interest in mind. I never doubted that.
In the end, Dax got me into the perfect place that I didn't even know I wanted.
Thanks Dax!!

We couldn't be more pleased with Terry and her team! Thinking we would have to go to California to take care of selling my Aunt's home, my wife and I were relieved and thrilled to learn that Terry had very tool necessary to handle this for us without the need for cross-country travel. Communication was constant and efficient, every step of the way - a very important detail, given our need to close the deal in short order. Terry and her team staged a dream home that was irresistible and sold more quickly than we had hoped and for a price well above asking. We couldn't be happier with the results and we highly recommend Brezsny Associates for all your real estate needs! Thank you, Terry!

We used the Brezsny group for several real estate transactions in Santa Cruz. Each transaction was handled with so much attention to detail as if it was their own home. The Brezsny group is like family to us, and they will always hold a very special place in our family. They helped us purchase our starter home, sell it, purchase a second home and then helped sell that home as well. The staging was immaculate and marketing was top notch! We felt like we were on "Love it or List It". They made the transactions a smooth as possible for us and were by our side every step of the way. The Santa Cruz market is fast and extremely competitive - their help made each transaction go as seamlessly as possible. We felt they went above and beyond, and their expertise in real estate is the best we've every experienced. We have purchased 5 homes and have worked with several agents - really nothing compares to the service this group offers! We are forever grateful!
