Mr. Luna made our home buying experience completely stress free! Through his knowledge and experience, we were able to find a home, close, and get the keys all under 40 days! Additionally, he was able to negotiate a reduction of $15,000 from the original asking price! Mr. Luna communicated with complete transparency, setting realistic expectations every step of the way. He was readily available via text, phone, email, and in person to address any of our questions and concerns. Lastly, Mr. Luna showed his dedication to his clients by working through major holidays, including his birthday! When the opportunity presents itself, we will continue to work with Mr. Luna for our second home and refer him to all of our family members and friends without any hesitation. Thank you again for all of your help and support! #whyrent read more

Chris represented me in a purchase of a single family home in Hayward and did an excellent job facilitating the process from start to finish. I like Chris' no non-sense approach throughout the negotiation and escrow process. The get 'er done attitude is what I'm used to and communication between myself and the seller was second to none. I've never been through an escrow process where everything went perfectly and this one was no exception. However, Chris was able to navigate through the hiccups very smoothly and I felt very comfortable he was representing me in my best interest and that I was in good hands. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Chris to friends and family for their real estate needs! Thanks again Chris! read more

Our experience with Chris has been phenomenal! His level of expertise and responsiveness helped us feel comfortable throughout the entire process. He made himself available to us and worked around our schedules and making sure all our questions were answered. He has definitely exceeded our expectations! read more

Thanks a Million to Chris Luna! We had patiently been waiting till we could find the right home and we knew from the beginning that it would be equally important to have the right realtor to help us do so. Admittedly, we had very specific criteria on the home we hoped for, from the location, square footage, ranch style, layout and certain updates within the home. Little did we know that even beyond these elements, just how important Chris was for us from beginning to the end. Firstly, Chris was ready to 'hit the ground' running, which we truly valued with our tight timeline. We went house hunting on weekends and even during the week. Not only was Chris understanding that our timing was difficult on when we could look for homes due to our work schedules but whenever we could look at a property, he made sure it was the most efficient use of our time and energies, especially as we have two young children 'touring' with us too! He understood when we were disappointed or frustrated with the process, listened to where we were coming from and talked us through our concerns. When a home we fell in love with didn't work out, he reassured us with lots of accurate and realistic aspects that helped us realize, it wasn't quite the home we were looking for. Throughout the whole process, Chris was not just our realtor but was a patient, understanding and knowledgeable confidant and resource. Ironically after a month or two of looking, it was RIGHT when Chris and WE were out of town that the house we were meant to have came to fruition. Not only did Chris go out of his way to ensure the process was as smooth as possible even with us being out of town but provided reassurances and information throughout the process despite him being out of the office. This level of service was more then appreciated because of how stressful it could have been and it really showed how much Chris valued us as his clients and our time while being on vacation too. Another element of impressive care that Chris provided was after the home was well in the process of closing escrow. He took time out of his busy schedule to help me meet with contractors at the home to start the process of inspections and remodeling questions so that we could move into the home as quickly as possible. When we were able to receive the keys and the home was ours, I had some outstanding questions to ensure things were what they seemed and despite it NOT being his role to explain and get the answers for me, he was the only one who came through to confirm the facts I needed. If you are looking for a realtor that will take care of you in the realty world from beginning, middle and the end, someone who goes out of his way to answer questions, provide explanations & reassurances and makes you feel like his #1 client, Chris Luna is the realtor for you. We are delighted to have had Chris be our realtor and now a life long friend. Chris didn't just find our family a house; but helped us make it our family's home sweet home. read more

This is an overdue review for this great realtor (who also happens to be a long time friend of my husband), Chris Luna. Back in 2013, Chris helped us purchase our very first home. During that time, many first time buyers like us, were getting outbid by cash buyers, and although we were getting disheartened, Chris never gave up and helped us find the right home for us. Fast forward to this year, we had to sell the home that we bought in '13 quickly, to move into a more comfortable home. It was a roller coaster of emotions, especially for me, because we made many memories in that home. Chris worked tirelessly day and night, to get our home quickly in the market and before we knew it, we got an offer and the home sold rather fast. So fast, that there was a home in the same neighborhood, that went in the market before us, which is still for sale to this day. We couldn't be more happy and relieved that we didn't have to be in the same position as them. Thanks to Chris who published the listing and marketed it non-stop so we wouldn't have to worry about paying a mortgage and a lease in our new home for a few months. Chris, thank you for working with us once again and when the time comes that we are ready to buy another home, we will not hesitate or think twice to reach out to you again!!! Thanks again and Happy Thanksgiving! read more

Exceeded Expectations! I've known Chris Luna most of my life. He is like family to me. So with that said, I wasn't too fond of the idea of working with him because when you do business with friends, things tend to get relaxed. When things are too relaxed, things don't get done. Prior to working with him, my wife and I have been considering doing a short sale for our condo for a few months. She happened to mention it to him at a family party and since the cat was out of the bag, I decided we might as well move forward with him as our agent. It was just the nudge I needed. Chris ended up to be a great agent to work with. He was very knowledgable, but was very careful in referring us to the proper resource on matters beyond his expertise (tax lawyers, accountants, etc.) Although we are childhood friends, he kept things very professional. One of the potential buyers for our condo was also his client, but he never tried to work the numbers in anyone's favor. He kept things fair and honest, which to me is the most important quality in these types of transactions. I never had to call him for updates, because he would call me to keep me informed even when there haven't been any changes in the process. The most work I had to do was filling out the initial paperwork. After that, it felt like the machine was turned on and set to automatic. The whole thing was stress free on my end (but from what he told me, there was a lot of phone calls and back and forth on his end). Although I wasn't (and still not) keen on the idea of doing business with friends, Chris is the exception to my rule. When we are ready to buy again, he will be the first person I call. I've even referred him to my own sister. read more

This review is long overdue (we erroneously thought we posted one years ago -- sorry, Chris!). We were looking to buy a home in 2010, back when we were engaged and planning our wedding at the same time... To make a long story short, we initially worked with an agent in Castro Valley who was helpful in the beginning, but she turned out to be a first time homebuyers' nightmare. We placed a bid in a home in Castro Valley that we liked, and it was accepted. However, we learned that the basement labeled "finished and approved", including the outside retaining wall, was NOT approved (confirmed via looking at government documents/records). Thankfully, we were able to get out of that mess and the next to go was that agent. A month later, we decided to meet up with Chris in his office for our initial consult. We made the appointment knowing he's a real estate agent from his Facebook postings (yes, he was a high school classmate). At the end of our appointment, we felt more assured that he will be the one assisting us in this exciting milestone! Imagine planning a multi-cultural wedding and looking to buy a home -- all at the same time. Throughout the process, he was patient, proactive, knowledgeable, and thorough. We had so many "must have lists", such as the kitchen sink cannot face the stove, the front of the house cannot face south, etc. Who knew that having us for clients can open Chris' eyes to Chinese and Filipino must haves in home buying? Nonetheless, he made the process easy for us. He showed us homes in areas he knew we wanted, and most important of all, he took the time to take into account what we said we wanted in a home. He never showed us homes we couldn't afford; he didn't waste our time showing us homes we would never consider, etc. We were so happy with his service that we recommended him to anyone we knew who was looking to buy a home (Chris helped my sister as well, including another acquaintance). We strongly believe that we will be his forever clients -- if we ever get the opportunity to purchase a second home, we know who we'll be turning to. read more

Chris help us to sell our house in one day after listing, answer our questions any time we called. The whole process went smoothly and quickly. We are very happy with his services. Once again thanks Chris. read more

I wish there were more stars we could give to Chris. He really exceeded our expectations. We didn't know what to expect as we went through the home buying process for the first time, and we were relieved to work with someone so kind and knowledgable about the process and area we were looking in. We very much appreciated all his years of experience and easy-going nature. It also helps that he has a great sense of humor. We are telling everyone we know to work with him, and we really look forward to working with him more in the future! read more

We couldn't be any happier working with Chris. He took really good care of us from the very beginning. We felt no kind of pressure through out the whole process. Just when we started losing hope on finding a home, Chris kept the fire burning. He told us not to give up and he guaranteed he will find us something. A few weeks later he did!! He would go the extra mile to find the right house for us. He is very knowledgable in what he does with a laid back attitude and also has a bunch of great references. All the inspections on the house went very smoothly because of him. If we are lucky enough to purchase another home, we will definitely give Chris a call. read more

After living in our home for 10 years, my husband and I decided that it was time to move on and eliminate the treacherous commute in our lives. We knew nothing about selling a home but knew that we needed to start the process and find a good and well educated realtor who could help us get through what was going to be unknown during the next few months. We needed to find a realtor that could help us and get the sale done. Thankfully we found Chris Luna. From the start till the very end of the sale process, we knew we were in good hands. Chris is very easy-going, honest and is a great communicator. He listened to all of our concerns and we felt that he valued what we had to say. For example, in the beginning, we had some concerns about an open house and didn't want to be bothered with unexpected walk through so we really appreciated the fact that he helped us sell the house by Appointment only. Security was very important to us, especially with other strangers walking in and out of our home but he made sure to communicate our concerns to his colleagues in the field who showed the home to prospective buyers. He was very diligent in his work and it definitely showed. Selling a house can be a very scary, especially if you aren't familiar with selling a home or know what to expect, but Chris was always clear with instructions, next steps and had the unique ability to put us at ease. He was always very professional with us and VERY PATIENT. What we appreciated the most about Chris was the fact that he never told us what to do or how things should be done but instead, provided us with excellent professional information about selling a home and well informed us during each step of the sale so that we can make appropriate decisions together. Chris has great follow through, has great integrity in his work and worked really hard to make it a successful sale. We would definitely recommend him to family and friends! Thank you Chris for working with us through the sale of our home. We really could not have done it without you! -J&E read more

Unfortunately, my home had to go on shortsale and Chris Luna was the person i contacted to help me with the process. Chris Luna was extremely helpful with the whole shortsale process. He made me feel comfortable and informed me of everything I needed to know regarding the procedure. Chris even went the extra mile to show up on the inspection date (which he didn't NEED to do). He's very professional, responsible and punctual. He makes himself available to his clients and though he's a busy person, when he's with you he gives you his undivided attention.I will always contact him when I need to sell or buy a property and I would recommend Chris to anybody. He's just Great! :) read more

My husband and I have worked with Chris Luna a few times before and every time we get more than what we expect from a realtor. He is very knowledgeable in today's market and we feel like he went above and beyond to help us get the home we really wanted. He's very responsive, he listens to you, he's always calm and collected and just an all around good person. He is our go to guy for our property needs. read more

He's very professional. Response immediately when we have questions. He really made this very stressful transaction into a easy one. We appreciate his professionalism. read more

Chris was an absolute God send to me in finding my home. I knew what I wanted and he was quick to target what could be my dream home. I wanted something that needed work since remodeling is a passion of mine and he was able to see where potential problems were and thus helped me avoid some huge money pits. He was a pleasure to work with and did not try to steer me into what might have been an easier sale, but focused our search on my dreams. I had worked with an agent prior to Chris and never felt like my best interests were considered. With Chris, I never had a doubt that he was on my side, helping me find the best house for me. Now that I am in the house, I know he was right. The repairs are minimal and the potential is incredible - exactly what I wanted! Thanks so much Chris, You ROCK! I don't think I would be here in this house without your knowledge of how to get my offer noticed AND accepted -- Not to mention the extras you wrangled. I have a couple of friends who hope to be buying houses within the year and have already recommended Chris to them. read more

Chris Luna is an exceptional real estate agent. I am a first time home buyer and I had qualities that I was looking for in a home while staying within my budget. Chris was very accommodating to my specifications. He also provided my with immense support and helpful tips throughout my search. I had a long road before I found the right home and it was wonderful to have Chris guiding me the whole way. Overall he made my first home buying experience an excellent one! read more

Couldn't have asked for a better realtor to help guide me through purchasing my first home. Chris was very prompt in answering all my questions as a first time home buyer, as well as being very considerate of my daily schedule to handle paperwork, etc. It was almost a year long process, but he made the whole thing as easy as possible. read more

It does not get any better than Chris! Chris is enthusiastic and very knowledgeable. We had a very specific house in mind and Chris worked very hard to find it for us! We could not be happier in our new home! read more

Like any home buyer, we were determined to find a home and anxious at the same time. However, things did not go as smoothly as we had planned. For a few months, Chris helped us move forward through the process. Even though, we ended up taking 5 steps back at time. We finally got all the adminstrative stuff taken care of and Chris was able to get us into our home. Chris's knowledge of the area, the business and how to treat homebuyers is second to none. read more

Chris Luna has been a wonderful agent for me and my husband. He made buying our first home a breeze. He was there from start to finish and was very patient with our wants and needs for a new home and our growing family. He was only a phone call or an e-mail away regardless of any questions or informations we may need. His knowledge and expertise of the different cities we were considering was precise and accurate. We couldn't have been any happier at how he negotiated our deal for us. Chris made us feel at ease and answered any concerns we may have without any hesitation. He came highly recommended by my sister and her husband who also used Chris as their agent. We can't say enough about his professionalism, sense of humor, honesty, and integrity. He is a phenomenal agent. read more

When my husband and I decided to sell our home we asked friends who they would recommend, they gave us Chris Luna's name and number. Our friends raved about him, and I am happy to say that what they claimed was true! Chris is very professional, curtious, knowledgable about the market, and all around nice guy. We were always able to get a hold of him, he was very flexible with our schedules, and kept us updated every step of the way. As first time sellers, we didn't have much of a clue about the process, Chris walked us through the whole thing and made us feel comfortable. He set out to do a job for us and he did it. We are extremely pleased with his work and we are glad to say we have him as our agent for any future property needs. We highly recommend him! read more

Chris was awesome! He quickly got a sense of what I was looking for, was patient, listened, and always responded quickly to my requests and questions. He made the home-buying process go so smoothly and he is incredibly knowledgeable. I never felt rushed or pressured. His advice is sound and he doesn't cut corners. He loves what he does, and I would recommend him to anyone. read more

My husband and I contacted Chris when we finally decided it was time to purchase a home for our growing family. We were moving from Fremont to Contra Costa County and were looking for an expert in that area. Now I've known Chris for some time so I knew I could trust him as a person, but was unsure about his abilities as a realtor; we were not disappointed. Chris is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to buying a home and made the process extremely simple. Not only is he knowledgeable, he is extremely responsive. We always heard back from Chris the same day we contacted him, usually within an hour. Additionally, since we were in Fremont and worked in the South Bay, he always made himself available on the weekends to show us prospective homes. And when it was time to submit offers, he walked us through the process and gave us tips to increase our chances of our offer being accepted. I can also add that he will have your back no matter what happens. The realtor of the home we ultimately purchased was trying to close escrow quickly and was trying to cut corners during the entire process. Chris made sure everything was done legally and ensured we were well taken care of during this process. If you are looking to buy or sell your home, I would not hesitate to call Chris, you will not be disappointed. read more

I can't recommend Chris highly enough. My husband and I have been looking for a house for a couple of months with two other realtors and it was a very painful experience, until we found Chris. What a difference! We called him on a Sunday afternoon and he returned our call within 10 minutes. He answered all our questions before we even asked them. He really wants to get to know you and truly cares about buyers' preferences. Very knowledgeable, very approachable, very professional. Our situation changed and we ended up not buying this time, but once we're looking for a house again I already know we'll be calling Chris. read more

I got to say after are first consultation with Chris Luna my wife and I walked away well informed and confident that he would find us a home. Sure enough Chris found us that home. Chris was with us through the whole process every step of the way. Thanks to Chris and his team my wife and I were able to achieve are dream of home ownership. To anyone looking for a realtor look no further Chris is the man!!!! read more

My wife and I currently had the gear pleasure of working with Chris on selling our home. It was a tuff decision to move on with the sale of our home because we were undecided if we wanted to sell or if it was the right time. Chris Met with us on two different occasions and explained the process, what to expect, and helped us understand why this was a good opportunity to sell. Chris was very professional, new the market, provided great marketing strategy, provided great recommendations on what to repair or upgrade to make our home more appealing to buyers, and would always answer any calls or text messages at any time of the day. Through Chris's expertise and recommendations, our home got more than the expected offers (22) and over our asking price. Due to his experience and great customer service, Chris is now working with us on our new home purchase. I would recommend him 100 percent. read more
