Shaun Alston completely redesigned my home and then 18,000 square feet of award winning office space. Many years of experience and integrity come with being his client. read more

Writing this review took me a lot longer than expected, not because there was a lack of words, but rather so much to share about the life changing experience I had working with Shaun Alston (Eagle Realty) and Dave Bernatchy (Landmark Mortgage). If I could give them a 10 stars out of 5 stars, I would. As first time homebuyers, my fiancé and I couldn't have asked for a better team. They were so patient with us, every step of the way. They stood out from the rest of those in their fields through open and consistent communication. I don't like guessing what's on people's minds and I don't like getting the run around when I have questions. Never during the search for our home did I find myself feeling in the dark. When uncertainty presented itself, I felt Shaun's support which made the biggest difference in this new chapter of our lives. He really did look out for our best interest. Finding our dream home was very bumpy. Several unfortunate events took place that were outside of our control. When we started this journey, we came across what a property we really liked, and guess what? We got it! We were beyond excited. However, then came great difficulties involving the HOA and the seller's agent that led to us cancelling the transaction. At that point, my fiancé and I were devastated because we had already made payments towards that transaction. Shaun's team worked diligently to get back our deposit and what we had invested on the inspections. It was an uphill battle, but in the end we got all our money back. When we were about to call it quits, Shaun somehow found us a beautiful place to call home. This new place was in a gorgeous gated community that felt like a nature park in the middle of the city. When my fiance and I first walked through the door, we were ready to call it home. Again, something came up. We ran into problems with the HOA because they had not sold a property to a potential buyer with a "low down payment conventional loan" in several years. We got concerned, and this time it hit us even harder. Thankfully, Dave worked miracles allowing us to buy the home. On top of that, Dave even got the entire subdivision approved for the type of loan we had! Incredibly, all this happened within our expected escrow period without any extensions or delays. I could never thank Shaun and Dave enough for the amazing team they are and the impeccable work they're capable of. Whether you are a first time home buyer or just looking for a new place, I cannot recommend enough that you use Eagle Realty and Landmark Mortgage to make your dreams a reality. read more

I've known Shaun Alston since 2009. He helped me sell two homes, latest one being in late 2025. Shaun took care of everything from staging my home for free to meeting inspectors on my behalf when I was unavailable. He exceeded my expectations of what a realtor is. Shaun is so gifted in interior designing my home into a beautiful show case that I almost didn't want to sell my home.. I 'm so grateful with Shaun cause he helped me throughout the selling process. He and the team where amazing! The vendors also were amazing and very talented. I recommend Shaun Alston and his team if you selling or buying your home.( Dave was also great when I refinanced a few years back, talented guy) read more

I found Shaun to be rude and cocky. My husband and I inquired about a listing and also had a home to list. Not only where we put on hold twice for very lengthy times, but we were essentially dissuaded to purchase the property in question because it needed extensive work. Shaun said the home would be better suited for a contractor. read more

Selling a Home? Call Shaun Alston--Real Estate Agent, Design Guru, and Occasional Therapist If you're looking to list your house, any realtor with a nice headshot and a clipboard will do. But if you want to actually sell your home--and keep your sanity intact--then you need Shaun Alston. Shaun isn't just a real estate agent. He's a full-service, all-terrain, problem-solving machine with a smile. My home sale was... let's just say "unique." The kind of situation that would make most agents break into a cold sweat. Shaun? He showed up with a plan, a team, and what I can only describe as Jedi-level calm. He navigated every legal twist, staged the home like it was going on the cover of Architectural Digest, and marketed it with the precision of a Fortune 500 campaign. The man even has an eye for design that could put HGTV hosts out of business. I'm still not convinced he doesn't moonlight as an interior designer. But what truly sets Shaun apart is his attitude. No matter how complicated things got, he met every challenge with positivity, laughter, and a "we've got this" energy that kept me grounded. There were moments I was ready to throw in the towel--and Shaun was there, talking me off the metaphorical ledge with a joke, a strategy, and a fresh cup of optimism. By the end of the process, I didn't just have a successful home sale--I had a new friend, a trusted advisor, and someone I'd recommend to absolutely anyone (including my future self). Bottom line: Shaun Alston is the real deal. If you want a professional who's sharp, strategic, and just the right amount of hilarious, look no further. He doesn't just sell homes--he elevates the entire experience. read more

Redemptive... Shaun Alston and his team is one of a kind. His services was always in the front line for us. Let just say he became us and put himself in our shoes. He protected us, he spoke for us and represented us. He went all out and he was on fire with us through our trials and tribulations. He put his expertise and reputations on the line but most of it all, he was compassionate. It started last year summer in 2024 purchasing a brand new home with a big lot that was complete with a multi generation home. We witnessed it being built from ground up. Then a new builder came in next to our future home. We looked at the model. Based on structure and size it was much bigger and benefited our needs for about the same price. So we made the decision to cancel on our current home to the new builder. Of course they were disappointed and told us that we will be charged a liquidated damage of about $38k It was hard on me and my wife. Giving away that much money was very emotional. You really don't play around with that kind of money. That builder wanted everything. The sales team and upper management didn't felt any remorse for us. It was pure business. So we seek for Shaun's expertise and he told us not to worry and trust in his works through his experience. Shaun was flexible and gave us options and chose his recommendation because in the end we will be rewarded which was the right option. Shaun went to work and beyond!He protected us. He represented us, meaning that my wife and I never had to see those sales representatives from that builder again. He represented us from point of contact and reviewing all documentations. It was a sense of relief for us. He stood in the battle grounds. Honestly, we put him to work. We went ahead and purchased the original home. It felt like we weren't part of the process. That's how great Shaun's work was, protected with professionalism. Then he listed that home and in a quick turnaround received multiple offers. One day while Shaun was staging the house, a neighbor walked in and offered to purchase and wanted to back out from the house they were in contract with because they fell in love of how amazing the house looked. Shaun's staging was beautiful. We end up selling the home in a month with a net gain. We were so happy Shaun can really sell homes!!! It doesn't end there, Shaun helped us get to our dream home without any attachments from the first home! You can see in our story that Shaun is uniquely talented and compassionate. He knew we were stressed and hurt and we witnessed his actions through strength and courage and gave us hope. Thank you Shaun for helping me and my family get through the tough times. We couldn't have done it without you! Your hard work is highly appreciated You are amazing in every way!!! read more

Shaun Alston and Team Eagle are my "Heroes." Shaun has an arsenal of individuals that can assist in every aspect of preparing to sell. Including FREE STAGING, repairs, updates, the declutter team, showings prep, etc. It doesn't end there, then begins the extraordinary marketing, photographs, aerials, and YouTube movies. Anything that's required. Finding the buyer was extremely easy with his marketing techniques and strategies that have won him countless awards. Most recently Sacramento Bee, Forbes Magazine and Fortune Magazine listed him Five Star Realtor for 2023, 2024, and he was just named for 2025. That's three years at the top of the industry delivering perfect service that is intuitive, insightful, cost-efficient, and caring real estate customer service. I appreciated him holding my hand and then helping me with the process of moving out and meeting all the terms and obligations of the agreement of the sale of my home. I am a very busy career woman. I am a novelist that has won international acclaim, and my novels have been made into movies. I've been traveling extensively, but have decided that I want to relocate closer to the productions studio. Shaun is a licensed interior designer, general contractor and real estate broker with a lending division with wholesale lending with conventional and government FHA money to help buyers. I was lucky enough to have been referred Shaun Alston by my driver who Shaun represented. Shaun has sold many homes to busy everyday people, professionals, entertainers, professionals athletes, TV personalities, government politicians, and movie stars. I always thought you had to pay a lot more for this quality of realtor. You know the ones that can handle all the complications of a busy professionals life and the sale of their home. Shaun and his team took care of everything at a reduced rate. A true luxury service at wholesale prices. It was a thrill to watch the magic happen. To see my home transformed, he did the staging while I was away and when I came home, the reveal was amazing! If you're searching for a real estate agent, you're searches over. Pick the WINNER so you can be a winner too! I am so happy I picked Shaun Alston. And a special shout out to his team lead Alexander Snel. read more

I'm writing this testimonial because my realtor, Shaun Alston with Eagle Realty, has been exceptional. Every time I buy or sell, Shaun Alston amazes me. Knowing Shaun Alston has been a life-changing experience and I want to share my story. I met Shaun Alston over 2 decades ago when I was in high school. He helped my grandmother buy and sell two houses. I remember the stories she would tell me about how wonderful the experience was. I always told myself, if I ever buy a house, I wanted to use Shaun Alston. When I graduated from high school, I rented a for a couple of years. I hated it. I don't like paying other people's mortgages and I was tired of my view of a parking lot. It was time to buy a house. I was really afraid of the unknown. I know my grandmother trusted Shaun Alston, so I called Shaun Alston at Eagle Realty. He helped me buy my first house. I will never forget his kindness, his professionalism and his negotiation skills. It was really nice to have the loan and the real estate in the same location. It made the process of buying a home easy. Shaun's team includes an in-house lender, Dave Bernatchy with Landmark Mortgage. It was a one-stop shop. They set me up with wonderful FHA financing with government down payment assistance and made the process super fun and easy. It was remarkable and when I sold that house, I had built a lot of wealth. My biggest surprise was that I could make so much money buying and selling houses. Also, the tax advantages as an owner far outweigh being a tenant. With the money I made from the sale of that first house, I bought two houses. I rented one and lived in the other. When I sold those two houses with Shaun, I bought three houses on the same street side by side together. I lived in one and rented out the other 2 house. I recently sold those 3 houses and bought my 2 brand new houses. Shaun was the reason all of this has happened for me. I went from a small inexpensive starter house to living in the lap of luxury in million-dollar homes. I owe all of my wealth building and real estate to Shaun Alston and his team with Eagle Realty and Landmark Mortgage. I'm sad you only have five stars for me to give, because he's a minimum of 10 to 12 stars! Shaun Alston's a remarkable and compassionate person, but most of all he's the best in the business and a really strong advocate and independent broker with his own firm. I've seen him win so many awards, I've seen him on TV shows, and TV news and radio shows. I understand why he's won every award in real estate and was in Forbes magazine. Shaun is a triple threat. Shaun is an award winning builder, an award winning interior designer, and an award winning real estate broker. A couple of the houses I sold were vacant and his company "stages" the house for FREE! His interior design firm will stage any of his listings for FREE!!!!!! This helped my house's sell faster and for top dollar. I would recommend Shaun without any hesitation, and I rarely recommend anybody. If you want an easy transaction, if you want someone that will listen to you, if you want someone you can trust... you need to do what my grandmother told me, "Call Shaun." I promise it will be one of the best choices you make in your life! -Anita Rodriques read more

When it came time to sell my rental property last year, I found out it was not left in the greatest condition. With Shaun's years of extensive background in interior design and expert knowledge of real estate trends, he advised me on how to renovate and stage my rental in the most attractive way to earn top dollar. Shaun procured all of the contractors necessary to do the paint, counters, flooring, windows, etc. His staff made all the arrangements for contractors to provide me with bids and scheduled them to begin the work for me, so that I was not interrupted at my job. These are the kinds of things Shaun takes into consideration, and it made me feel like I was receiving a luxury service. Additionally, as I was beginning to close escrow on the sale of my rental, my husband put in an offer on a new rental for himself. He kept Shaun's team busy with that transaction, but Shaun was still able to give us equal attention and manage his other clients as well. He's an extremely hard worker, and he'll always be my first choice whenever we'll interested in purchasing real estate. read more

Shaun Alston - Eagle Realty - My rental property that Shaun sold for me in 2023! - Real Estate Agents Near Me - Gold River, California

If you're looking for a realtor who really listens to you and explains things to you honestly, then Shaun is the best you can find. As a first time home buyer I couldn't have asked for more. He let me know what to look for in a home beyond the esthetics. He found homes to look at that had what was on my must have list. The amazing thing is he did all of this from Northern California, and I'm in Southern California. I recommend using him whether you're buying or selling a home. Landmark Mortgage, a sister company to Eagle Realty, processed my loan. I get very anxious when it comes to signing contracts that deal with finances. My loan officer, Dave, was fantastic. He explained everything to me in plain English and was very patient with me when I asked him to explain things to me again. I had no surprises from start to finish about how much I needed to pay, when I needed to pay it, and to whom. It made the process so much easier. I appreciated all he did for me. read more

Shaun did an amazing job working with my husband and I on buying our first home. he was very quick to answer any questions we had. He was very knowledgeable with where to place our bid to stay competitive with other bids. it was amazing to have such a knowledgeable agent to help us with such a big purchase. read more

I was completely impressed with the professionalism, experience, wisdom and courtesy of Shaun Alston. I wax in quite a stressful situation in that I needed to sell my house ASAP. Shaun's relaxed approach to my situation put me totally at ease. I knew immediately that he was the right agent for my situation and that my house would sell soon if I listened. He made great staging recommendations and taught me so much about better ways to tastefully decorate your home. I will certainly put them into practice when he finds my new home in Sacramento. He should be teaching agents to be more effective in the home selling process! read more

Look no further! Shaun was phenomenal in helping us buy and sell our home within record time (otherwise we would not have a place to live). This is our 4th home and we've been through several realtors. Shaun genuinely cared about what we wanted, and he knew how to make it happen with his masterful negotiation skills and market expertise. On top of that, he even has an interior design background to assist us with staging! Wish we could give him 6 stars. read more

I have used Shaun in multiple real estate transactions and he has always done an excellent job. From his extensive market research to determine the best pricing, to his excellent marketing of the property through multiple venues, and with his timely follow-ups providing me with instructions along the way, Shaun has proven his professionalism. I would highly recommend Shaun Alston and Eagle Realty for any real estate transaction you may have. read more

I haven't even started and have already run out of superlatives to describe Shaun Alston's proficiency in what he does best...WOW his customer by getting the best results possible and within budget!! Let's start with his experience. Shaun's experience as a former builder equipped him to isolate flaws in the design of properties I was "initially" interested in; for example a property which looked fine aesthetically but design-wise created an unavoidable noise and potential odor problem that wasn't easily reconcilable unless the entire garage was relocated (not something most laypersons would pay much attention to until after-the-fact). Shaun's experience as a skilled negotiator saved many anxious moments when the Purchase Contract hung in the balance due to foot dragging by third parties and unexpected and unforeseen delays. During these moments Shaun was able to negotiate "time-sensitive" extensions which prevented the deal from falling apart. Equally important, Shaun's soft skills, including being honest, responsive, patient, humorous and understanding of what would work and what would not during negotiations, made me laugh at myself more than once! Shaun's entire demeanor is one of firmness with levity and seriousness with laughter...you always felt he "really" cared i.e., it was about more than a payday at the end of the deal; it was about building a lasting business relationship. He was always available 24/7 (within reason) and endured my unending questions. Finally, Shaun's leadership of his team was run like a well-oiled machine; he strategically placed team members to expedite services and everything was done on-time and without drama! Shaun Alston and Eagle Realty One Stop service is not just in name, it's in "deed!" I will definitely be using Shaun and his team again for my real estate needs and will be recommending them to my friends and family. Thank you Shaun Alston and the Alston Team!! read more

Shaun Alston and his team at Eagle Realty made our home buying and selling process one that felt manageable, and readily understandable. With the help of Shaun and his team we experienced the following positive aspects of the selling process: he brought in a professional photographer to give us the most online appeal with our sale; Shaun individually helped us to stage our home; Shaun coordinated for professional cleaners to deep clean the house prior to private showings; everyone was mindful of Covid precautions; and the entire team was readily accessible to answer any and all questions we had. We always felt welcome and encouraged to ask anything we wanted to know, and Shaun and his team demystified the buying and selling process by anticipating many of our questions. The enthusiasm of the team and the resultant marketing campaign helped us to get the best selling price on our first home. In the process of finding our new home, our budget was respected and we found a range of fantastic options. With the market moving as quick as it did at the time of our search, the resourcefulness and readiness of his team to find new options was remarkable. We found and bought a wonderful new home, at a price we felt comfortable paying. We always felt valued and that what we were seeking in a new home was a realistic goal - which we achieved because of the help of his team. Throughout the entire experience, which was fast (we bought, sold, and moved in around three weeks), we always knew we were in good hands. He and his team were quick with answers to our questions and inviting and pleasant in every conversation. We never felt pressured, we always felt supported. read more
