Christine is an amazing agent. We could not have put an offer together so quickly or successfully without her hard work. She got us the answers we needed about comps, permitting, site constraints, and insurance. She connected us with excellent architects and builders so that we were comfortable eliminating contingencies. She gave us excellent advice about price. She was a clear and prompt communicator throughout the process. She is also very friendly and a good listener. We highly recommend Christine!

I’m so happy that I chose you to work with Christine. She made the process so smooth by being a knowledgeable, thoughtful and thorough advisor. At our first meeting, she took the time to educate me on the unique aspects of the mobile home market and factors that could impact the value and the ongoing costs. I truly appreciated and enjoyed working with her.

Working with Christine was the best decision I could have made during my home buying journey. Before finding her, I had worked with another realtor and felt discouraged, unsupported, and overwhelmed. The moment I switched to Christine, everything changed. Christine went above and beyond every step of the way. She was responsive and incredibly quick to answer any calls or texts, which made such a difference in a fast moving market. She was honest and straightforward, always giving me real advice instead of just telling me what I wanted to hear. What I appreciated most was her patience and the fact that she never pushed me into anything. She genuinely cared about helping me find the right home, not just making a sale. Her knowledge, professionalism, and attention to detail made the entire process smooth and stress-free. She listened to what I wanted, explained everything clearly, and fought for my best interests every step of the way. Thanks to Christine, I can proudly say that I am now a Santa Cruz homeowner. I’m incredibly grateful for her dedication and can’t recommend her highly enough to anyone looking to buy or sell. She doesn’t just get the job done, she makes your dreams possible!

Christine Pini has in the past 5 years sold a house for me and helped me buy a house most recently. She went above and beyond. Was so professional, knowledgeable and so well in knowing me and guiding me through this process, kept me calm, was my true representative. She is my realtor for life.

Christine Pini is a good communicator, dedicated to assisting clients in the real estate market. Her friendly approach made our home buying experience very enjoyable. Christine has excellent local market knowledge which helped us make informed decisions about purchasing our home. She has a great knack for working with other real estate professionals, lenders, home inspectors, etc. I highly recommend her as your agent. When I am looking to buy again I will definitely call Christine Pini.

Our agent was Christine Pini and she was fantastic. She had a lot of insight about the local market and was very patient and thorough in shepherding us through the purchase process. It took us a year and a half to find the right place and she was there with us the whole time. We feel lucky to have worked with her.

Christine was a pleasure to work with in every way--extremely knowledgeable about the area and its particularities, and gifted with a sunny, optimistic attitude that helped us feel supported throughout the process. Santa Cruz has been a challenging market for buyers, particularly over the past few years; Christine really listened to what we were looking for and was patient and supportive of the long search process that included multiple offers. Her expertise and warm, easygoing disposition made a sometimes stressful and frustrating process feel manageable.

This review is long overdue. Where do I start? Christine has been nothing short of AMAZING. We hired her after a very disappointing 6 month experience with a local, well known "big shot" agent that focused more on marketing himself than doing his best to represent us. He failed to sell our house in one of the best seller's market ever. We learned that even when market is crazy and homes sell like hotcakes your agent still needs to pick up the slack and do his/her job, treat you like you're the only client they have and do their best to represent YOU, not use your listing to just chase another client. Christine was great from the moment we met her. Very honest, caring, straightforward, well organized, great presentation and marketing skills. She doesn't make promises she can't keep so many other people do only to get your listing. She won't try to convince you she's a magician that can sell your home for more than market can bear. She sets realistic goals and she goes out and works hard to exceed them. We hired her on the spot and she hit the ground running. Best decision ever! She has proven herself as an extremely hard working individual you can relay on and trust 100%. Christine is one of those rare individuals that will have your best interest at heart, rather than just chasing her comission. She did everything right. From pictures, staging, putting together marketing package, setting the right starting price based on comps (don't trust people that want to list too low or too high), reaching out to agent community, hosting a very successful broker / public open house, negotiating our deal. Our home looked like it belonged in a magazine and we got so many praises from agents that saw our home being previously listed by the other agent.. People were shocked to see this amazing transformation. And so were we! I joked I no longer wanted to sell, our house looked like a dream! Her photographer and stager are first class professionals. Christine even brought her landscaper husband in to help us spruce up our front and back yard. She brought in cleaning crew to get house ready for showing. The end result was beyond all our expectations. We got two offers 2 days after we re-listed for almost $500k over asking price with no contingencies. We also got to stay in the house rent free beyond closing date so we could prepare to move as stress free as possible. Christine was there for us every step of the way through this entire process. She kept us in the loop start to finish and was very responsive to any questions or concerns. We didn't have to worry about anything other than packing and moving. Closing was on time and went smooth. Christine is definitely the best agent we've ever worked with (this wasn't our first real estate transaction) and is absolutely an amazing human being too. You're making a huge mistake if you don't hire her. She's a rare gem!

Having previously completed the purchase of property with Christine Pini, my wife and I didn't even give a second thought to reaching out to her when the time came for our next real estate transaction. Christine is knowledgeable and isn't afraid to tell things as they are, good or bad. Having had many interactions with other real estate agents, we've interacted with numerous agents who seem to be simply 'phoning it in' for a commission. Christine, however has been incredibly patient throughout our journey to find a place that met our stringent criteria and we always felt she had our best interests in mind.

Christine is amazing. Super patient, extremely responsive, on top of all the details, gives great advice. All around amazing agent. Wouldn’t go to anyone else.
