Sold a Single Family home in 2022 in Davis, CA

"I highly recommend Walter Christiam Chamorro as your real estate agent. Walter is very professional, knowledgeable of the housing industry, driven to do his best, brings positive energy and is a very kind person. He provided excellent service by always being available, a great listener and responding to questions quickly. He was transparent and kept me informed of the process from the beginning all the way to the closing. I fully trusted Walter and his incredible team to provide the best service for myself and my family for a successful outcome in the sale of our family home. We had a great experience and would definitely recommend Walter as your agent!"

James Smart

Bought a Apartment home in 2022 in Fairfield, CA

"Our nightmare ended when we had a chance encounter with Walter Christiam. Don't let his young looks fool you. This guy is a superstar! We were under contract in a period of about one month. He is not in it to screw anyone around. He is fair, timely, communicative, passionate, listens well and is driven to success. Everything he represented to us was accurate and seasoned. We quickly learned to trust his opinion, judgement and knowledge. We presented him with a difficult, time consuming, detailed purchasing situation that involved trusts, out of country signors and a complicated list of ever changing requirements. He not only tackled the difficult assignments with ease and skill, he excelled any and all of my wildest expectations of a RE agent."
