  Our experience working with Fernando as our buyers agent was extremely disappointing. At the start, he told us he could negotiate the price down significantly because “the seller’s agent didn’t know what she was doing.” Once the seller agreed to make all the requested repairs, that negotiation never happened. The day before our final inspection, Fernando actually called to encourage us to waive the inspection altogether — which we found ridiculous. Thankfully, we didn’t listen. When we went through with the inspection, we discovered that none of the agreed repairs had been done. It felt like he didn’t want us to find out. He also pressured us to use his preferred lender, claiming that if we didn’t, the seller might think we were getting cold feet. The rate from his lender was much higher than what we later found elsewhere, and only after we said we couldn’t afford it did he “suddenly” find another lender with a better rate. During the final inspection, we also found that the automatic gate had been changed to a manual one with the motor removed — a major issue. When I told him I didn’t want to close until it was fixed, he promised we’d be reimbursed afterward because he “keeps perfect paperwork” and told us not to worry about it. We trusted him and closed based on that assurance. Since then, he’s done absolutely nothing to help us get reimbursed or resolve the issue — even though he promised multiple times to take care of it. It’s clear now that his main concern was getting the deal closed and collecting his commission, not looking out for our best interests as buyers. Fernando should stick to listing homes, not representing buyers. Our experience was stressful, misleading, and ultimately costly.

  My husband and I had an excellent experience working with Fernando . His professionalism, attention to detail, and dedication to finding our perfect home were outstanding. Fernando demonstrated in-depth knowledge of the market, providing valuable insights throughout the process. And to top it off he genuinely cares about his clients I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell their house.

  Fernando is one of the True Professionals left in an industry where people tell you what you want to hear rather than the truth. He answers his phone and takes his Word very serious. If you want to sell your home, there is no doubt he will out work anyone until the home is sold
