Chris made the process as a first time home buyer simple and easy to navigate. Would recommend

I've had the pleasure of working with Chris Luna both as a buyer and a seller -- and I can confidently say he's an absolute gem in real estate! When we were buying our condo during the highly competitive COVID market, Chris put together a smart, strategic offer. Even though another buyer submitted a higher bid, the sellers went with our offer because of how strong and well-positioned Chris made it. That's the kind of thoughtful, tactical approach he brings to the table. Years later, when it was time for our family to move on to the next chapter, we didn't hesitate to call on Chris again -- and it was just as exciting. The market had shifted, interest rates were higher, and yet Chris's insight and professionalism never wavered. He brought a beautifully bound marketing portfolio with comps, projections, and strategy. Thanks to his guidance, we sold for above nearby comps! He coordinated trustworthy contractors to prep the unit, brought in a talented and competitively priced stager, and even reached out to city offices to handle admin items we needed to wrap up before closing. He really went the extra mile. Chris also had a professionally done video made to market our home -- and it got serious traction on Zillow, YouTube, and in-person showings. We went under contract in just 2-3 weeks, with a smooth, fast close. Throughout, Chris was attentive, responsive, and strategic in every step. His negotiation skills are top-notch, and he truly advocates for his clients, whether buying or selling. If you're looking for someone who understands the market, communicates well, and knows how to win -- Chris is your guy. Two thumbs up! read more

I can't begin to tell you how much I appreciated Chris Luna's help with selling my home. Within two years I lost my dear husband, my sister, and my beautiful grandson. I was in no shape to take on selling my home that I truly loved. Chris gave me great advice and just took over. I really didn't have to handle anything. From the moment, I shook Chris' hand and looked into his eyes I knew that he was the one I could count on. Before I moved, I took Chris' advice and made repairs, had it professionally cleaned and had it staged. The for sale sign went up after I had already moved out of state. I had eight offers in six days and Chris handled everything and kept me so well informed. It was sold for 36,000 over the asking price Chris is truly is one of a kind and I couldn't have done this without him. read more

Chris is an absolute gem to work with! He is an expert in selling and buying homes in the Bay Area. He bought and sold some of my family members' homes throughout California, and it was bound to be our turn. Everyone he recommended to us was easy to work with and made the whole buying process seamless. His expertise made me and my husband feel comfortable with purchasing our very first home. We fell in love with this particular home and wanted to give an offer right away due to the desirable location. Before we knew it, the sellers were accepting offers within 3 days in the market and 1 day after attending the open house. Chris gave his advice, quickly created the offer letter, and with his knowledge, luckily our offer was accepted. With the demand of the sellers wanting to sell quickly. Within less than a month, the home was ours. It was truly a dream come true. Thank you so much for working quickly to make this deal happen! It is an honor to work with you and your team. We will definitely recommend you to our friends and family. read more

When we decided it was time to purchase another home, we discussed who can assist us with the purchase. We chose Chris because we know he has worked with our friends and family, and they had only great things to say. They were right. Chris and his team made our home buying experience very enjoyable. He knew what our interests were, so during a day of touring properties, he scheduled a visit to a house that wasn't on our radar. That house ended up being the one we purchased! From start to finish Chris made sure we were comfortable with the process and the transaction went smoothly. Chris has excellent communication skills and truly knows his craft. We would recommend Chris and his team to anyone needing support in real estate. Thank you Chris and team! read more

I'm so glad we got to work with Chris. He was accessible when we needed him, and also very understanding when unforseen circumstances came up with family. He worked at our ever-changing pace, was on standby for any information we needed, and had a team that streamlined processes and provided resources. Overall, I was in the driver's seat the whole time with comfort in Chris's guidance. He sold just one of our homes, but I'll be sure to connect with him for our next purchase. read more

We have used Chris previously to sell and buy when we upgraded to a bigger home. This time, Chris helped us with selling a rental property that needed to be sold quickly in turbulent times for real estate sales. Chris was able to give us feedback on what repairs were needed vs not in order to get the property on the market quickly. As offers came in, he shared advice on what our options are, and the likelihood of more favorable offers in the current market. Overall, the interaction with Chris and his team was again top notch. read more

We were finally looking to sell our house and my wife found Chris at the top of the list of realtors in our area. Our experience with Chris throughout the whole selling process was a really pleasant one. He's very patient and at the top of his game but also likes to impart his knowlege and smarts on how these things work. He gave us a lot of recommendations on how to prep the house but still made us feel that we are always in control. I tried but it became taxing as I also had to work so I finally asked Chris to take charge. With his network of contractors, of which we were very satisfied, he completed all the prep work in no time - landscape, painting, plumbing, hauling, carpet and baseboards, deep cleaning, and staging.. he's a powerhouse! So.. he sold our property 3 days ago. He made it look easy. Chris is highly recommended. He'll be our realtor for life unless he retires. read more

Long overdue review for our wonderful realtor, Chris Luna at Compass. We have worked with Chris over the last decade, helping us both as sellers and buyers. Most recently, Chris worked with us in purchasing a home in San Ramon. For me, communication is key and Chris was always upfront and kept us in the loop throughout the entire process. It was a challenging market with multiple bids on numerous properties but Chris helped us strategize on presenting competitive offers. Chris knows the market and provided us with accurate information to make informed decisions. He always kept us grounded and ensured us the perfect home would come and sure enough it did. We can't thank him and his team enough for the incredible service we were provided. If you are in search for real estate representation, contact Chris and his team. We would not hesitate to use him for our future needs. read more

Our family needed to relocate fast and knew nothing of having to sell and buy. Upon meeting Chris we immediately were impressed by his expert knowledge and guidance from the beginning. This continued throughout our experience and with every important decision. He was super responsive answered all of our questions and provided us updates. His trustworthiness was evident, and knowledge of the industry made a process that was initially overwhelming, easier to navigate, allowing us to make the best-informed decisions for our family. With his guidance, we were able to successfully sell our house well over asking, helping us fund out next move. As we approach our next chapter with our new home, we really are grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Chris and his team. His unparalleled knowledge, professionalism, and care for the people and their families he provides is truly exceptional. We definitely will be recommending him to family and friends. read more

My husband and I recently worked with Chris to sell our condo we've owned for 5 years. Chris was actually the realtor who helped us purchase the condo 5 years ago, so we knew we had to work with him again. Chris and his team are so helpful, responsive and made sure we were guided through the home selling process every step of the way. We listed our condo in December and had around 15 showings the weekend we listed on the market. A few days later, we received multiple offers and accepted an offer $62k over listing price! This was all thanks to Chris's recommendations of deep cleaning and staging. Chris is now helping my husband and I close on our new home! A new home build that is expected to be complete this Spring. Overall, such a wonderful experience with Chris! We would recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home! read more

Chris has been awesome to work with, very knowledgeable about his profession and explained everything thoroughly, always made himself available to answer questions, Chris made the process very easy and was on top of all the steps needed to go through the process of selling a home. Chris and his staff were tentative with all my needs and basically had everything set up for a successful transaction. Highly recommend Chris for your home buying or selling needs he is truly a professional that will provide you with top notch service. read more

This review is long overdue! Chris is a great Realtor and helped us SELL our first home then later BUY our next one! He's patient, knowledgeable and very resourceful. He's a great listener and we always felt as though we could trust him. We knew nothing about the housing market, and he did a great job in educating us about the ins and outs of buying and selling. He's a natural in what he does and helped us understand and easily navigate the buying and selling process. He was always very flexible with scheduling and answered our countless questions with ease. Would definitely recommend Chris to others without any hesitation! Thank you, Chris, for all that you do! read more

Chris Luna Group for the win! Chris was a pleasure to work with. He was always flexible with his schedule, especially with my husband's daily changing schedule. Chris is very personable and made the house hunting feel as though we were house shopping with a close friend. We brought our four-year-old to the house viewings and even he felt comfortable around Chris. After several viewings we came to find our home. We want to thank Chris, his team and the companies he works with for making our home buying process smooth.We are so pleased on how smoothly everything went and recommended Chris to anyone looking for a home.

Yes, you did Chris, and we can't thank you enough to make this whole transaction so smooth and stress free. Shad & Jermaine Shabbas read more

Chris was a complete JOY to work with! As nervous first time home buyers, Chris was very helpful every single step of the way. When we decided to put in our first offer, our offer was accepted the next day. He thoroughly explained the home buying process and set expectations for what we were about to experience. When we expressed concerns about things we didn't understand on our contracts, he would explain it in such a way where we felt comfortable and confident in moving forward with our purchase. Chris is extremely genuine and honest. I could tell from the beginning that I could put our trust in his hands as if he were family. It was very clear to us that he had our best interest at heart throughout the entire process. Thank you Chris for making this such a smooth process. We are so in love with our new home. We are customers of yours for life! read more

Chris helped has me with both the buying and selling process in the past 6 years. I loved working with him and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled and strategic agent to help navigate the challenging real estate market. Chris was always super responsive to my questions, providing timely and thorough answers. read more

I originally found Chris's information via Zillow and was amazed by the reviews left from other first time home buyers. My husband and I decided to contact Chris when we were ready to enter the market. Chris took the time to meet with both my husband and I to understand our must haves, ideal location, and budget. After the call, we were given an app to share the properties we were interested in and were able to schedule viewings. Chris's knowledge of the market and his many years of experience helped us navigate a very complex process. Whenever we had a question, Chris's responses were fair, realistic and specific to our situation. A few offers later, we got accepted and looking forward to receiving the keys! I would 10/10 recommend Chris and his team to our friends and family for their future home purchases or home listing needs. Thank you Chris and team for all of your hard work and patience in helping us get into our first home! read more

Chris is knowledgeable, friendly, timely, and truly cares about his clients! Not only was he on top of everything each step of the way, he was informative & super friendly!!! This was my first time selling a home and my first home nonetheless. I had interviewed several realtors and knew right away my search was over after meeting with him. Chris came prepared, explained the selling process, provided comps, etc. He really listened and worked with me to set the proper listing price. Chris didn't waste any time getting photos and listing my home. There were many showings lined up in the first few days and we received multiple offers all being way over what I expected. I appreciate all of Chris' help and guidance during this process. Overall a great experience...I wish I would have found him when I purchased my new home earlier this year read more

Chris is extremely pleasant to work with. He successfully sold my house after getting multiple offers within 6 days from the marketing launch, all over asking, and in the traditionally slowest month of January. He gave me tons of advice on how to prepare the house for maximum appeal and top dollar, and it worked. He is very knowledgeable about the real estate business and is also resourceful in resolving problems that are bound to come up. What impressed me most was how he protected my best interest as his client when there was a delay in escrow closing. Not too many agents would do that. I would not hesitate to recommend Chris to anyone who has real estate needs. read more

In a time filled with uncertainty, Chris Luna made our home buying experience something special. When we chose Chris as our agent to help us purchase a home, where we plan to build our family, he definitely went above and beyond. Chris has so much knowledge and expertise! When interacting with Chris, he dedicated a lot of time and focus to us, he would make himself available to us anytime of the day for questions. With the housing market being what it is and all of its craziness, Chris always wanted to make sure that our home was 100% right for what we were planning. He really wanted to make sure we were comfortable with absolutely every aspect. Chris would always share his knowledge and point out future scenarios to think about, that we never even thought of. Which we are very grateful for! The best way I can explain our experience with choosing Chris as our agent is, it doesn't feel like you are in a regular buyer and agent relationship, it feels like you have one of your best friends to help guide you to choose a home where your planning to build a family! read more

We were so fortunate to have worked with Chris Luna to purchase our very first home! What started off as a conversation to gauge how ready we were to purchase a home turned into a super quick and seamless purchase of our house. As our Realtor, Chris helped us find the right house in the right neighborhood and guided us throughout the whole process as first time buyers. We were thoroughly impressed with how easy the process was while still feeling that we were getting all of our questions answered and boxes checked. In short, he was always on our side working to make our house purchase as simple and successful as possible. The best part about working with Chris was that he was always more focused on answering our questions, giving us good advice, and finding homes that met our needs than he was on closing a deal. We would recommend him to anyone and everyone looking to purchase or sell a property. Chris will be our go to real estate agent for life! read more

Chris made what could have been a stressful process straightforward and painless. I went with Chris to help me buy my first home and he was there with me from Day 1 through signing and closing escrow. I never had a doubt that Chris had my back through the whole process and I'm thankful for his guidance through it all. I would highly recommend Chris to anyone looking to buy or sell their home! read more

We chose to work with Chris because my family and friends had very positive experiences as both buyers and sellers. Also, Chris was very active in his industry, even going as far as using his personal social media platform to provide industry insights to his followers. It had been over 16 years since I'd purchased a property so the process felt new again. Also, the last house we purchased was a brand new home, so we were unfamiliar with the many nuances of buying a resale. Chris took the time to get to know our likes, dislikes and geographical preferences. He knew we wanted to stay in our hometown, but we were willing to consider leaving the community for the right home. Once we found the right home and put in what would be the 2nd offer during our engagement process, it was pretty much smooth sailing. The first house we bid on sold significantly higher than our offer. Chris was very good about setting our expectations and didn't push us to make offers which were more than our stretch number. As mentioned, once our offer was accepted, it was smooth sailing but fast moving. At the end of the day, we bought a home in a neighbor we'd never heard of and love it more than we could ever imagine. During the process, Chris always said you'll know the home when you see it. It sounds cliché, but it is the truth. read more

Chris and his team helped us close on our first home. As first time home buyers we were anxious, impatient, and had a lot of questions. Chris and his team were professional, and patient. He kept things real. Most of all he remained upbeat, and encouraging. We were shopping in a very hot market, had seen dozens of homes, and just when we were about to give up, he helped get the deal done! The process wasn't always easy, but Chris was there to help guide us to the finish line. read more

My wife and I had been in the market for purchasing our own home for quite some time. We made changes to our lifestyle to aggressively save money and made an emphasis on improving our credit scores. We were making all the commonly known steps to purchasing a home but had no direction. We blindly began Googling random realtors and contacting various banks, but no one seemed to offer us any helpful advice. We were always given the impression that we just were not ready. Then by chance, we met Chris. I say by chance because both my wife and I had met him separately through our encounters. Neither of us knew he was even a realtor until we saw one of his social media posts. I casually mentioned to Chris that my wife and I were looking to buy a home but hadn't been successful. The moment I told him that, it was like a spark lit up on his face. I was extremely impressed with how serious and thorough he was with everything. He was already making the moves to get us into the houses we had been interested in. Chris connected us with his team which who were outstanding. His team was always on top of things and always responsive. Chris' negotiating skills are stellar. We were able to get the home we originally had our eyes set on for a lower price than we anticipated! I would recommend Chris if you were a new home buyer like ourselves. I guarantee that he will not disappoint! Thanks, Chris and team! read more

My husband and I started working with Chris in early summer to purchase our very first home which we just closed on in November. At our first meeting, Chris asked us a series of questions to understand what we were looking for including desired areas, style of home, and what characteristics were important to us and our family. Right off the bat, we could tell how knowledgeable and attentive Chris was he was. Given that this was the first time we bought a home, we would ask Chris thousands of questions each time we looked at houses, and he was always able to answer our questions. One of the best attributes of Chris is how the constant communication we maintained; we could always reach him through emails and texts even during weekends and evenings. Chris was wonderful during the negotiation times as he really helped guide us during offers and counter-offer situations and had our back negotiating with the seller's agent. At the end, we found the perfect home for us and we can't wait to grow our family in this beautiful home! read more

We have worked with Chris twice now and he has always given us great communication and has been helpful to us in finding a home our first time and now selling our home. He's very professional. His crew for photography is amazing and even during the pandemic he made sure all rules were followed. He was available to us as much as he could be and if we had any issues he helped address them with us. Would recommend chris to any of our friends or family. read more

Chris was very knowledgeable and strategic in getting my property listed and SOLD in about a month more than the Listed price in today's higher interest rate market! He and his Assistant, Angelica, were very helpful in answering all my questions and getting the right Third Party firms to complete all the necessary work Before close of escrow! Chris knows his stuff and is very responsive at all times. We would recommend Chris to take car of all your real estate needs whether it's selling, buying, or both transactions as is the case with us. read more

Now we are selling our house with Chris! 5 years went by fast. Love our current neighborhood so much! Our dream property is big enough to have horses and alpaca on though, so it is time to move and settle. Chris has been on top of everything since we let him know we were ready to go on the market. Will update once the home sells. :) read more

See all

Chris is absolutely amazing! He has been the biggest help through our entire home buying and selling process and we can't imagine buying/selling a home with anybody else.

Chris answered all my questions and assisted me through any information I was not familiar with. He is also a very seasoned and experienced in advising the appropriate value to price your home at and listening to his advice got me to successfully sell my property. Thanks so much Chris! read more

We can't say enough about Chris's dedication, expertise and knowledge about buying a house. He made buying a home a truly positive experience from beginning to end. Thank you so much Chris, we are very grateful! read more

We're first time home buyers and having Chris as our realtor was absolutely incredible! Going into this, we were pretty nervous about everything that is involved with buying a home. However, Chris definitely put us at ease and was by our side the whole time. He's always happy to help with any questions we had and his response time is incredibly fast! He always made sure to explain what step of the process we were on, so we never felt lost about what was going on. Chris and his assistant Angelica were so supportive and nice throughout the whole process, and we wish we could give them more than 5 stars! :) Definitely recommend!! read more

We are first time homebuyers & spoke to a few agents. Chris was super responsive from the very beginning. Once we decided on working with Chris, he walked us through every step of the process and was there for us whenever we had questions. Chris has a great team and had good recommendations for a lender & home inspector. We wouldn't hesitate to work with Chris next time we are in the market for a new home. read more

Chris helped us sell our house last year, and with that experience, we knew that we wanted Chris to help us buy our new home. This is the second time we are buying a home and in comparison to our first experience, this was seamless. First, we couldn't believe, in a market like this, our offer was selected - yay! Then the whole escrow and closing process was so smooth and seemed effortless. Kudos to Chris and team. read more

Happy to work with Chris, who is a childhood friend. He kept us posted on when would be the best time to sell. He made sure that our house of 11 years got many people to consider our property. Chris, his contacts and his staff worked well to get our property ready for listing then ready for sale. 30 groups consisting of almost 90 people over the course of 4 days took the time to visit our property and we had multiple offers. We found the right buyer for our home. Chris also helped us in purchasing the home we plan on retiring in. read more

Chris was awesome! We worked with him in buying a condominium a couple years ago and needed to work with him again in purchasing our new home recently. He is very knowledgeable and answered all of our concerning questions in an effective an efficient manner in order to close our home purchase. He also referred us to the necessary communication contacts (I.e loan specialists, home inspectors, etc.), which of course are key in the process. In addition to his knowledge and professionalism, he's a very positive and awesome person to speak with! I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a realtor! read more
