I was able to work with Arin Weber who is exceptional at her job. She listens very well and was there for me from beginning to end in my first time home buying journey. She also recommended me a great inspection guy and a cleaning lady once I closed on my house! 10/10 recommend Garcia Properties and their agents. read more

Jeannie Caro was absolutely amazing to work with! From start to finish Jeannie made the process of selling my out of state home extremely easy. She took the time to explain every step in great detail and offered great tips/advice on how to stage my home. She went above and beyond to work with my tenants to schedule showings, worked with my HOA directly to gather pertinent information that was needed and met with/coordinated with the city inspectors to make sure that everything was taken care of. Thanks to Jeannie, the entire process was smooth and I did not have to worry about anything! She was a pleasure to work with and I hope to work with her in the future. read more

Arin Webber at Garcia Properties was an excellent buyer's agent for us and as first-time homebuyers we're so grateful to have her guidance. She was very concerned about our needs and desires and is very knowledgeable, not only about properties but about the whole home buying process. She really guided us from finding the home we love, to negotiating a winning bid, to assembling a team of equally helpful and responsive loan officers, insurance agents, and even hooked us up with good contractors. I don't think we could have got the home we wanted without Arin Webber and Garcia Properties. read more

David Nall proved to be an exceptional real estate agent, his background in the construction industry really helped us evaluate homes as we did walkthroughs. His understanding of roofs, basements, floors, materials, finishes, etc. were invaluable in guiding us through the home buying process. We weren't expecting to submit an offer after a couple days of seeing homes, but with all the knowledge we accumulated, we felt confident taking that step. He was very professional and equally just as friendly, we truly felt he had our best interest in mind. His list of references have already proven to be top notch as well. I would definitely want to work with David again, either selling or buying another house. read more

We highly recommend working with Garcia Properties! Jenifer Garcia is the GOAT -- our sale had a lot of moving parts, last-minute repairs, and lots of negotiating, and she still managed to get us over our asking price and closed in under a month DURING THE HOLIDAYS. Superwoman. She is knowledgeable, kind, seems to know the exact right people to bring in (handymen, sewer pros, staging, and more), and she handled the entire process for us, so we could relax and enjoy our holiday season knowing she had it covered. This is our second time working with Garcia and we wouldn't go anywhere else. read more

Jenifer was incredible to work with. She explained the selling process so well. She helped us design the layout of our house to be most attractive to buyers. She got us multiple offers over asking price, with good conditions, and we were even able to cancel showings and our open house because of it! We genuinely could not have done it without her! Life was hectic when we were selling, and she took some of the burden of preparing our house for selling so that we could focus on other things. Could not recommend enough! read more

Aileen was the best realtor we have ever had! She helped me and my husband find our dream home. No detail was missed, she was honest, and a joy to work with all around. The entire process was seamless, and we felt seen, heard, and valued as her clients. I couldn't recommend her more! read more

Aileen Garcia with Garcia Properties was such a pleasure to work with. She made a tough task manageable and a huge success. She was thoughtful in her communication and very professional. She really knows her stuff. Thank you so very much, Aileen for helping us through the process. You are amazing and we highly recommend Aileen and her team to any looking to buy or sell their home. Blessings! read more

I really wanted to like Garcia Properties - I know several people who have utilized their services for rentals, as well as for buying/selling houses and had nothing but great things to say about them. Unfortunately, my experience wasn't super great. I made multiple attempts to get ahold of someone regarding several properties and did not hear back on pretty much any of them - I contacted both by email and phone. Most recently, I reached out to Garcia about a building with four available units. I contacted several times and did not hear back for months. When I finally did get in touch with Brad two months later, there was just one unit left for rent, which I attempted to make arrangements to see. Since I was not able to tour during regular hours, Brad gave me the code to the lockbox to retrieve the key and let myself into the apartment. However, while the key opened the back door to the unit, it did not let me into the unit itself - it was locked. Brad let me know to call if I had any questions or issues, but when I called to explain what happened, I was sent to voicemail and didn't ever receive a callback. Two weeks later, I called again as the apartment was still up for rent. I explained to the secretary what happened and asked if I could speak to someone else. I was put in touch with another agent named Johnny. This gentleman apologized that no one had gotten back to me and expressed surprise since Brad was "sitting right across from me two minutes ago." He let me know that the unit should have been unlocked and that he would go over and make sure it was so I could view it that evening at my convenience. That evening, I went to go look at the unit again. The lockbox on the back door was gone and there was only a lockbox on the front door. Since it was a different lockbox, and I didn't have the code, I was unable to open it and get into the building to view the apartment. I called and left another message. The next day, Brad called me back after 5:00pm and gave me the code to the new lockbox. However, when I went over for a third time, although I could get the box open, there was no key inside to get into the building. Overall, I am disappointed with my experience; my time is important to me and I feel like a lot of it was wasted on this. I understand mistakes happen, but three times in a row? Not great. Finally, for people working a regular job, I think only doing tours with an agent M-F 9-5 would be difficult for most people to swing. Like I said, I know people who have had a great experience with Garcia, and everyone I spoke with was super nice, so maybe just a fluke - hope others have better luck! read more

As a first time home buyer I might not be the most knowledgeable reviewer. With that being said, I can't imagine any agent being better than Anna Garcia. In a time when quality of service is exceedingly rare, it was very refreshing to work with her. I'm sure she's incredibly busy but she almost made it seem like I was her only client at times. She helped me retain most of my sanity when dealing with the crazy housing market and find a great home at a reasonable price in an awesome area of south city. She is knowledgeable, experienced, and kind. She truly cares and looks out for her clients. A true pro who made a potentially frustrating and scary process fun. read more

First time home buying is a stressful and tedious process especially in today's market. Fortunately, I didn't have to navigate it on my own. Kevin Dodson, along with the exceptional team at Garcia Properties, have been incredible to work with. Kevin was my advocate and he truly helped navigating this process so much easier. He is so informative and insightful, professionally and ethically giving me insights and advice on difficult decisions to make, helped ease concerns and calmed me during frustrating multi-bid wars with highly-desired properties. And when I finally found my home, he was an excellent negotiator and guide on every step of the way. I am glad I found him and I am so happy I found my home. I felt I was in great hands from the very beginning. Thank you, Kevin! read more

I was a renter with Garcia for several years. This was my first apartment and there were some rough times in my life. If I needed a few extra days to make rent, they were always reasonable. Any maintenance issues were taken care of ASAP! They were a godsend to a young twenty something! Now, a few years later, I'm happy to say that I own my own home - also with the help of Garcia. They are doing great things for the community and I will always recommend them to anyone looking to buy or rent! read more

I couldn't say enough great things about Alex Castellano at Garcia Properties. My husband and I wanted to sell our home quickly to be able to move into a different area of the country, and she completely took over the task and made it her mission to get us sold and ready to move. She was extremely knowledgeable, always quick to respond, and truly went above and beyond for us. We couldn't have done it without her, and couldn't have picked a better person to work with us to sell our home. read more

Tara Hacker is amazing!! She helped me purchase my first home a few years ago, guiding me through the entire process without pushing me to do anything I wasn't ready for. Then when it came time to sell this year, she was there and ready for me! Because I was moving out of state, I was nervous about the paperwork and inspections involved with closing if I couldn't be there in person, but Tara was a rock star. She is knowledgeable about the area and potential buyers, and cautioned me about any current trends with the housing market that I wasn't aware of. She kept me informed about my home's showings and offers, and made the entire process so enjoyable. The only downside to moving is that now I can't use her in my new state! :) read more

Arin Webber was the best realtor that I could imagine. I was overwhelmed by the thought of getting my house ready and selling it after I moved to a different state. She suggested great people to help prepare the house (a handyman, junk hauler, house cleaner, and professional home stager). She stayed on top of getting things done! She did everything promised (and more) and did it with expert efficiency. I would recommend Arin with the highest level of confidence that she is one of the best in her profession. read more

This company and family are amazing and their local reputation of being the best is well deserved. I have worked with Garcia Properties in a couple different capacities, between rentals, our home search, and their in-house lending, all of them wonderful experiences. Brady and Johnny have shown my wife and I rental properties back in the day (err 2015), I remember working with them fondly. And more recently we've worked with Arin Webber, who has multiple times kept her eyes pealed for a residential investment property for us. Sue King was helpful and diligent, they're just all great folks who try to help you get exactly what you're looking for. Every time we've worked with this amazing family and their business we are so thankful that they are here in STL. They are hardworking, deeply generous folks, and their company adds so much value to Saint Louis as a whole. read more

A friend recommended Emily Booker from Garcia Properties after she'd worked with her to buy her own home. From the moment I texted Emily she was responsive and ready to help. She was extremely patient throughout the process, taking time to educate us on topics as we encountered them, and always made us feel like her number one priority. In a tough buying environment, I'm so glad we had Emily on our side to help us make competitive and effective offers. With her guiding us, we got the second house we put an offer on (in March of 2022 in an incredibly hot market) and now have a home that we love. She also sold our old house and advised us on which repairs and improvements would be meaningful to buyers and which were not worth the investment. The house was under contract 3 days after listing. We recommend Emily to everyone we know who's buying or selling a home! read more

Todd at Garcia Properties was a champ running all over the city, helping me find the right home and teaching me all the things about home buying I didn't know. If anyone is looking for a home, I highly recommend the company and Todd himself. Garcia properties has an excellent resource bank, and Todd knew when to listen to me and when to tell me. He was patient with all of my questions and fit my vision with reality and I felt cared for along the way. Thank you Todd. read more

Selling my house with Anna was the most painless process! I cannot even begin to express how appreciative I am for her services as my listing agent. The second I met Anna, I knew we would work well together. She listened to my wants and needs while sharing her expertise as well. She was extremely responsive to me and was always available in a pinch. There is no doubt I would use Anna as my agent in the future as well as recommend her to my friends and family! read more

Kelsey is an absolute beast of a real estate agent. She's got the perfect blend of "soft skills" that help navigate even the most difficult situations, and market savvy to give you an edge in this tough market. As a rental property owner herself, Kelsey was able to answer all of my questions related to purchasing an investment property and has solid contacts / referrals for whatever you need. I can't wait to work with her again - thanks for helping me pick up my first multi-family property in St. Louis. read more

Aileen Garcia was such a pleasure to work with, she knows so much about south St. Louis and surrounding areas. She knows what was going on with the market and was able to help us out with every question we threw her way. Working with her felt more like working with a friend. If we were going to stay in STL I would have been so excited to work with her to help us buy as well. She has truly set the bar high for my realtor expectations in the future! read more

Working with Alex made the home-buying process such a breeze. As a first-time homebuyer, I knew very little about what to expect and was so blessed to have Alex beside me every step of the way. From the very first showing, I was so impressed by her knowledge of not only the vast St. Louis market but also of houses in general. She's basically a mini-inspector and was able to save me so much time by pointing things out and educating me as we walked through each potential house. Alex repeatedly went above and beyond what I expected to see in a real estate agent - she was patient, thorough, professional yet FUN, kind, and I always knew I could trust her to guide me in making the best decisions. From late night phone calls about unique situations that popped up, to sharing decorating ideas (such as where to store wrapping paper or what the hottest paint colors are), to chatting about our mutual love of Rock Band and Ranch Water, meeting Alex was easily a highlight of 2022 for me and I'll never work with anyone else for my real estate needs! Thank you, Alex and Garcia Properties!! read more

Teresa was so patient, gave lots of realistic feedback and practical advice. I felt like she was very knowledgeable about the pros and cons of older city homes. She was readily available for questions, scheduling tours, and explained everything really well for a first time home owner. I am so excited for my new home and will definitely recommend her to a friend. read more

I have used Garcia properties and construction in the past 5 years. They converted a bedroom to a master bath suite which we couldnt be happier with. Garica Property managed a condo I was renting and was delighted that I had nothing to do with any renter as they took care of everything! Finally I just sold that condo with the help of David Nall (also the general contractor on the bathroom project years ago) for over asking price and within 3 days of the open house. Couldnt be happier with all aspects of Garcia Properties! read more

My wife and I moved to the St. Louis area from Florida about a year ago. In between our move, we made a trip to St. Louis to look at rental properties/apartments. We had schedule at least 10 appointments to look at 20+ rentals within 3 or 4 days. Garcia Properties rental properties were the ones that stuck out to us the most. Out of all of the rental properties we had seen, the Garcia Properties' units were the cleanest and best maintained. We had scheduled a meeting with Brad to show us two or three rental properties. Throughout the process, he listened to our needs and recommended for us to look at one more property. That last property was exactly what we were looking for! Brad went through the paperwork with us, making sure to clearly answer any questions we may have had. He made sure we were informed about the internet, gas, and electric service providers. Any other questions we may have had about the property or lease, he we just an easy phone call/email away. My wife and I had been renting from Garcia Properties for a little over a year. We have had no major issues with our property and are very happy with the professionalism of the Garcia Property staff. I have had multiple interactions with Johnny and Brad, and they have both been very responsive to all of our questions. There hasn't been a time where I have asked a question and have not received a response. It's always nice to work with nice and honest people. I would highly recommend working with Garcia Properties for any of your rental or home purchase needs. read more

Jenifer Garcia recently facilitated the sale of our two 4-family buildings and I could not be happier with the process and outcome. I actually have a MO real estate brokers license and could have sold the buildings myself, but the value-add by Jenifer was more than worth it! Prior to selling the buildings, Garcia Properties did a fantastic job managing the properties for about 12 years. "Can't say enough," "highly recommend," "they're amazing!" Pick your phrase...they all apply! read more

Working with Leo at Garcia Properties was a fantastic experience! Having him by our side to navigate this crazy, cut throat market made the homebuying process as painless as possible. His knowledge of the St. Louis area and negotiation skills are top notch! He went to bat for us with the seller to get the repairs we wanted. We couldn't be happier with how everything went. Go with Leo and you too will find the house that is right for you! read more

We worked with Kelsey Snell who represented us as buyers. Kelsey is a great agent who went above and beyond for us since we were out of town investors. Her assessment of the potential for our investment property was spot on and a big reason we were able to be aggressive and score a great property in a competitive market. Johnny Garcia is our property manager and he turned around and rented a vacant unit at the property in only 1 week and got us a lease above our expectations. They know South City! read more

Bridgette was so incredibly helpful from start to finish! She answered all of my questions in a timely manner and guided me through the process with ease. She helped find the perfect house for me and my daughter in this tough market! read more

I've now sold two and purchased two properties with Anna Garcia of Garcia Properties. Each one presented their own set of unique personal circumstances and challenges. But Anna is the best in the St. Louis real estate business and was the perfect partner to help guide me through each process with professionalism, communication, and tenacity. She is responsive, knowledgeable, warm, personable, and truly an expert in her field. I'd work with her and her team again in a heartbeat and would recommend her to anyone. read more

This is a rental company that knows what they're doing! I viewed an apartment close by Tower Grove Park. The gentleman who showed me around had answers to all of my questions and even brainstormed with me a bit on how furniture could be arranged in the unit. He didn't rush me and let me take my time looking. I've heard only good things about this company and I can see why. Thanks Garcia Properties! read more

My fiancé and I worked with Martina Devine to purchase our first home! Martina is a neighborhood expert (south city) and lined us up to see multiple homes within 24 hours of our initial meeting. Martina kept us on track and let us know what to expect in every part of the process. She coached us through the offer and inspection process with minimal to no stress on our end, despite some issues arising with the selling agent. I can't speak highly enough of how responsive she was to even our smallest concerns. Even after closing, Martina has endless advice and recommendations to local contractors and beyond. We didn't just get an great real estate agent, but a fantastic neighborhood guide as well. read more

I got a new job in St. Louis and had to move in two weeks. They found me a perfect place that I could move in immediately. Their application process was pretty standard and easy. Their staffs are very kind and helpful. Move-in process was the easiest it could be. I definitely recommend Garcia Properties to people who's looking for an apartment in St. Louis area read more

We could not have been more pleased with Anna Garcia as our real estate agent. She was able to guide us through both the buying and selling process at our pace and used her extensive experience to help us find and buy the perfect home for us. Anna is easy to work with and makes the process so much less stressful with her positive attitude and fun approach. read more

We rented from Garcia Properties for roughly 1.5 years, mainly out of necessity. In our experience, they were at best incompetent, at worst manipulative and negligent. Some of the issues we ran into during our time living there: 1. Alex R. misrepresented the state of the property when giving us a video tour. He failed to note that the floors were sinking in various parts of the apartment. 2. During our first winter there, there was a gas leak. When Spire sent out a technician, he shut off our gas because there were severe problems with the furnace that were allowing gas leaks/emissions into our home. The technician said that it was like "running a car inside", and this coincided with a period where my wife and child complained of dizziness. Fortunately there was a gas leak otherwise we never would have known. 3. When Garcia was working on said furnace problems, in the middle of winter, they gave us one space heater. They did not tell us until 4 days after finishing work that it was actually safe to turn on the furnace again, days during which our family shared one space heater. 4. The property had a cracked front step from the time we moved in. Despite having seen the crack when they came to show us the place, as well as numerous times on service visits, it was not until our daughter fell down the steps on her head that they moved to fix the issue. 5. Bathroom door had an old, defective handle that just fell out one day. We couldn't get into our property's only bathroom. We call and guess what? A bathroom lockout isn't an emergency and will be put on the maintenance schedule. Luckily we were able to get the door open on our own eventually. In all, Garcia Properties was, in our experience, manipulative and negligent. I would highly recommend avoiding renting with them. If you are considering renting with them, make sure you do your due diligence on the state of the property, since they will not. (Randy from maintenance was the best, though - he's the reason they get 1 star) read more

My partner and I rented from Garcia Properties for about a year starting in 2014 and then bought our home through them two years ago. I've had a great experience with them! Whenever I have friends who are looking to rent or buy, I always recommend Garcia Properties. When we rented an apartment with them, they were responsive to the (very few) maintenance calls we made. Our apartment was remodeled right before we moved in and it was gorgeous! After deciding to stay in St. Louis, we worked with David Nguyen as our realtor in our house hunting and he was super helpful, friendly, and understanding. I appreciated how patient he was with me, even though some days I would call/text/email him several times! He gave helpful advice as we were first time home buyers, but I never felt like he was trying to push anything on me that I wasn't comfortable with. David was easy to reach and very knowledgeable. The Garcias are a real family who run this business. They live in, actively support, and invest in the South City community. They really do deserve 5 stars, which (according to Yelp) is "Woohoo! As good as it gets!". read more

I have tried to speak to an agent several times. You get put on a long hold with pac man or Mario bro's sound track ( VERY DISTURBING ) if you get through you get a screener and she then wants an agent to call you back. Why can't you just transfer me to a live agent? This is ridiculous and a waist of time for the consumer. I won't call them again and will avoid all properties listing with Garcia. waist of time read more

My fiancé and I think that Kelsey Snell of Garcia Properties is the best realtor in Missouri. She went above and beyond every step of the way in helping us purchase our first home. Kelsey is extremely responsive, knowledgeable, kind, caring, and professional. We will be recommending her to all of our friends and family who plan to purchase a home in St. Louis. read more

I was first introduced to Garcia Properties through a yelp event I attended last year. It was nice to meet the Garcias and hear their stories about how they want to help develop properties of the St. Louis neighborhood and how much they care about the city. I wasn't much interested at the time but soon later, I found myself looking for a property to purchase and I remembered Garcia properties. I was introduced to Ida, the realtor, who's was very patient with me throughout the whole process. She was very friendly yet professional and was available at weriest time of the day when I needed her. Since it was a first home purchase, I had lots of questions about all the documents and paper works that needed to be filled out. She guided me and also helped me to get through some tough times when the deal didn't work out. She put herself in my shoes and felt for me and really helped me to expedite things through. I would highly recommend Ida, but I know they also have many other wonderful people working as a realtor there at Garcia Properties that you won't be disappointed. read more

It was an absolute pleasure working with Leo to sell my home. From start to finish, Leo was proactive and did everything he could to make this sale a success. I am very pleased with his service and would not hesitate to recommend Leo to anyone looking to sell or buy a home. read more
