Words from Our Clients
Excellent Representative
Property Address Sold: 550 West 17th Street, San Pedro, CA 90731
Sal has been handling the leasing of the property for me for many years, and when the decision was made to sell the property, I asked Sal to represent our interests. I sincerely believe that Sal had my best interests in mind throughout the process. His experience and knowledge of the area and the market were unmatched. I could especially see the difference in contrast to the Buyer agent’s expertise and experience, and I was, and still am, very thankful for Sal being on my side.
- Seller/Landlord
In Sal We Trust
In Sal We Trust. This is the third sale Sal has handled for our family. We have always returned to Sal because he is knowledgeable and professional. On top of that, he is a super nice guy. Every realtor should be like Sal.
- Paula Rice
Easy as Can Be!
I was unable to be in town for the sale of my home due to Covid. Sal took care of everything, including minimizing the cost and stress of getting my home sale ready. The knowledge Sal has about the San Pedro market; where it is and where it is going; was key to developing the best pricing strategy and selecting the best offer. This was a very emotional decision for me and I feel that Sal honored my wanting to sell my home to a couple who wanted to buy a home in San Pedro, not just a place to live, without jepardizing my more practical reasons for selling. I cannot thank you enough Sal!
- Stephenie Blakemore
I had a good experience selling my parents home using Sal as my agent
My experience with selling my parents house through Sal went smoothly. Sal is very knowledge about the market and provided good advice in how to market the home and set the selling price. He gave good advice during the escrow process including how to negotiate the buyers requests for repairs during the home inspection phase.
- Wil Bergkamp
Salvatore is an excellent realtor! He’s supportive and experienced!
Salvatore has such an expertise and knowledge-base in selling homes that assists in his ability to explain well and understand the buyer’s needs. As a new homeowner, I was so happy he was patient, supportive and encouraging during this process. I’d highly recommend him to friends and family!
- Julie Valdez
Our second time selling with Sal
We entrusted Sal to sell both my grandmother’s and my parents’ house in the Harbor Area. His 40+ years of experience was invaluable, and he is extremely knowledgeable about the Harbor area. In addition, he is an extremely nice man who remains cool under pressure and can deal with all personality types. He is super responsive by phone, text, and email. We were especially appreciative that he did not pressure us to get the house on the market sooner than we did, and he was willing to work with our timeline. He always offered us recommendations based on his many years of experience, but he was also always careful to remind us that the decision was ultimately ours. We were very happy to work with him again through planning for a cross-country move this time. He also referred us to a realtor in our new state who was a great match!
