A big thank you to the Duarte team for helping us purchase our first home. They handled everything we threw at them and worked with us to find solutions. I appreciate that they were able to answer all my questions especially as a first time buyer. We gave them a specific area that meet our needs and they worked with it. They worked fast and attentively when it came down to submitting paperwork. The team also helped me when it came down to renting out my ADUs. I look forward to working with them again.
We had a fantastic experience working with Alex! After trying unsuccessfully with other agents, he was the one who finally got our house sold—and fast. We received multiple offers within just one week of listing with him. His strategy, professionalism, and commitment truly made a difference. His partner, Leo, also played a key role in helping us purchase the home we eventually sold. The two of them make a great team—knowledgeable, responsive, and always looking out for our best interests. What stood out the most was how easy-going and communicative our Alex was throughout the entire process. He kept us informed every step of the way and made the experience smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend Alex to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. You won’t be disappointed!
My wife and I recently sold our home with the help of Alex and Leo from The Duarte Group. Their professionalism and expertise were apparent throughout the entire process. They exhibited exceptional market knowledge and skillfully marketed our property. Thanks to their efforts, our home was sold and closed in a timely manner, allowing us to finalize the purchase of our new home without any delays. Their attentiveness and patience made the experience seamless and stress-free. We highly recommend their services to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
Working with Alex, Rene and their team was a great experience. Alex paid attention to what I shared I was looking for and sent over as many options as soon as they popped up. He answered many, many questions and gave ideas and suggestions without being pushy. Alex and Rene were available weekdays and weekends, via phone, email and text. They have great connections with other agents who gave insight and support in our search. The whole process felt collaborative yet clearly led by me. There was no pressure for anything and the team respected my opinions and suggestions. They made sure that we got the best deal and followed up even after escrow closed. I really enjoyed the friendly, respectful, efficient and "can do" attitude the team had through our time with them. We will be using them for future purchases for sure!
