"Jerry was amazing. Very helpful and willing to go the extra mile. He showed us many homes and found us the perfect one after looking at over 40 homes and five offers submitted. He made it so stress free and easy to buy our forever home. Always kind and honest. Willing to answer texts anytime day or night."

"Our realtor Sarah A. was SO amazing and very patient with us! We took a while to find the perfect home, but when we did she guided us every step of the way and was very detailed. As first time home buyers she made the whole process run smoothly! Her communication was amazing, I would do this whole process all over again with her!"
Andrea Contreras
"Thank you Mrs. Shirley for helping us find the perfect home! I couldn’t ask for a better realtor and will be reaching back out to her for our next property!"
Kay Scriven
"I cannot recommend Lupita and Rob Cavello enough! They made the process simple and were very prompt in responding to my questions and concerns. They never missed a call. I have to say, being my third home, I was picky about my forever home. After looking at a dozen homes, they were still patient and motivated enough to see what would fit best for me. Selling my home was exceptionally fast and easy. Rob had my property under contract in less than 24 hours! In the end, you would feel at ease with Lupita and Rob being your realtors because they care for clients and go beyond their jobs. Their knowledge and experience are on a high level which reflected on the deals and discounts they were able to get me. Choose the Cavello’s with the Salas Team and I can assure you’ll be happy with your decision."

"Wow! I never expected the sale of my house to happen so fast…less than one month on the market and we were under contract. I had called Shelley Salas because of the ads I heard and I saw their signs go up and never for too long because those houses sold faster than the houses with other signs. Dex Manguerra was my agent and he was professional and efficient from day 1. He had great communication and let me know what to expect in advance. Great job Dex and his team was great too!"
Monica Torres

The process was somewhat challenging, but Lupita's unwavering support and expertise made all the difference. She was always available to answer my questions, patient, and incredibly helpful. Her positive attitude was infectious, and she wouldn't let me give up even when the going got tough. I highly recommend Lupita and am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to work with her. She truly made the entire experience a positive and successful one. Thank you, Lupita!"

"Jerry was absolutely the most fantastic realtor I’ve ever worked with. He answered all my questions I feel we saw so many houses didn’t bother him at all. He was so patient until we found what was right for us every step of the way if we had legal questions if we had basic homeowner questions he was there for us 100%. I would recommend to absolutely anyone the best worth every penny."

"Working with our realtor Joshua Turlington was truly one of the best decisions we made during our home-buying journey. From start to finish, he demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and a genuine commitment to our needs. Joshua took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for and guided us through every step of the process with patience and clarity. Always responsive, transparent, and proactive. No question ever felt too small. Joshua ensured everything stayed on track for closing. We couldn’t be happier with our experience and highly recommend Joshua to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. If you want someone who is dedicated, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about their clients, this is the realtor you want by your side. Thank you so much Joshua!"

"Update: I forgot to mention that I made this purchase while living out of state. All of my views of the home were either by way of the MLS or video calls. Bianca, along with the entire SSYHSG team, we're very professional. They have the entire purchasing process coordinated beautifully with various subject matter experts stepping in at the appropriate time. Bianca was my agent and she was always quick to respond to my texts and phone calls. She even showed me a house (the one I ended up purchasing) a day or two after she had major surgery! Now that's dedication. Bianca was very good at keeping me abreast of each step in the process as as it progressed. I never felt anxious due to the excellent and continous communication. Five stars to this team!"
