Thank you for your kind words. We loved working with you!

“Bjorn was our agent on a 2nd home purchase in the Aptos area. Bjorn did an outstanding job throughout the process. Bjorn’s key strengths include (1) being extremely responsive to text emails (2) very good knowledge of the Santa Cruz market (3) knowing how to listen and provide thoughtful input eg alternative houses, and areas (4) being a good negotiator – some small suggestions on the offer helped us close our deal against three other bidders (5) was supported by a good back office team who were very coordinated. Overall very good experience and highly recommend Bjorn for the Santa Cruz county market.”
