When it comes to real estate professionals, Steven Zagaris is truly second to none. Throughout our home-buying journey, Steven provided my wife and me with invaluable guidance every step of the way. His expertise in identifying potential defects, evaluating repairs, understanding pricing, and navigating the entire purchasing process gave us confidence and peace of mind. Steven's communication was always direct, clear, and honest. He consistently performed thorough due diligence and made it obvious that he had our best interests at heart. Whenever something seemed questionable, he went the extra mile to investigate and ensure we had all the facts before making important decisions. His knowledge, professionalism, and attention to detail are exceptional. No matter the time of day, Steven was always available to answer our calls and texts, responding promptly and patiently to every question we had. He made what could have been a stressful experience feel seamless and straightforward. We are incredibly grateful for everything Steven did to help us find and purchase our new home. If you're looking for a dedicated, knowledgeable, and trustworthy real estate agent, I wholeheartedly recommend Steven Zagaris and his team. Thank you again, Steven--my wife and I truly appreciate all of your hard work, guidance, and support. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. read more

* STEVE GETS RESULTS!!! * Body: This was our first time working with Steve. It was a great experience! We hired him to sell our rental house in Modesto as part of a 1031 exchange, which made it extremely important that he price the property properly, sell it quickly and be super responsive to us so that we complied with all 1031 requirements. By the way, we had to do much of this while we were traveling overseas so, Steve had to manage a 13 hr time zone difference. He exceeded our expectations, which is something we rarely say! He not only met our very tight schedule but, he beat it. We got two offers over asking, and selected the offer from the eventual buyers, all within 48 hrs of going on the market! I know that the market has a lot to do with that but, Steve deserves much of the credit for making it all happen. If you're looking for a highly effective Real Estate Agent in the Modesto area, who can manage complex transactions with restrictive timelines and other requirements, Steve Zagaris is your Guy. read more

We should have sold our house during peak pandemic prices. Times have changed and the buyer has more leverage. But Steven at PMZ Real Estate helped sell our house in this new housing market. Steven was patient and realistic about our goals selling the house and the reality of what buyers were offering. He has a great work ethic, was readily available for all our questions and constantly communicated updates. I will definitely refer and use Steven again! read more

Interesting post. Found another Realtor that was highly recommended Unfortunately I didn't use his services.

Steve has been an huge help with finding a home for my family. Prior to Steve we had little luck with other bigger agents with teams who always passed us off to someone else. With Steve, you're working with him personally the whole time. A+ read more

I highly recommend Steven Zagaris. He recently helped us complete the simultaneous sales of two separate homes which both listed and closed escrow within six weeks. We could not be more pleased! Steven completed and initial walk-through on our homes and advised us of any changes or repairs that were needed prior to listing. He coordinated those repairs with his preferred vendors. Steven demonstrated expert pricing strategy to get the most activity on our listings while still selling for over the asking price. He was extremely responsive to our many calls and texts; as well as requests from the buyers' agents to schedule showings. Steven met with us in person to review offers/counter offers and negotiate the deals. Steven is a very competent, experienced, and responsive realtor who served us well. He made the house selling process easier and faster than we expected. Thank you Steven! read more

I have worked closely with Steven on many transactions and he is an excellent real estate professional.

Made an appointment with him to meet at our house on a specific day because we are from out of state and wanted to sell our house in Manteca. He was aware we were only in town for the weekend to put the house on the market but Steve never called to cancel, never showed up the day we he was supposed to meet us nor returned any of our calls that day. How much worse can it get ..... read more

I have known Steven for quite some time and had always heard great things about him as a Real Estate agent, so when I was considering selling my condo this year- he was the first person that popped into my mind to contact. As soon as I expressed interest in selling, Steven immediately went into action. He was extremely thorough in acquiring information on my property from me and outside sources- the presentation he put together which detailed information about his business, the company, the property, selling options and comparable listings was so impressive! I was out of town on business during almost the *entire* listing and selling process and Steven could not have made it easier for me to accomplish what needed to be done. I am so glad I contacted Steven- he is one of the most professional, efficient, responsive, proactive and knowledgeable agents in the business. I could not praise him enough for the great work he did in closing my condo. Thank you Steven!!! read more

I cannot put in words on how happy we are with Steven. He went above and beyond to find us the home we asked for. He answered his phone every time I called to answer questions I had which really made the process stress free. I would definitely recommend Steven Zagaris as a Realtor to anyone looking for home. read more

My wife and I had a long-term business relationship with an affiliate of Zagaris Realty to manage our rental property. So when we decided to put that house on the market, Steven Zagaris was an easy choice. Being on the same page with him, however, was another matter : we had honest differences in deciding who our target audience would be. Our desire was to limit expenses in upgrading the property prior to the sale. For that reason, Steven believed that "flippers" would be most interested and the best-case scenario would be a bidding-war between interested parties. We felt that the market was strong for families who wanted to reach the next level - much as we had done as we progressed in our careers. Agreeing on an asking price also proved problematic. The first day on the market, we had seven offers - a bidding war. We benefitted from a strong market and only time will tell whether the buyers fit the profile of "flippers" or "families moving up". There were some conditions on the offer we accepted and we felt fortunate to have the benefit of Steven's expertise in guiding us through that process. At one point in particular, just before the closing date, he stepped in and negotiated a settlement between us and the buyer. Without his intervention, we faced the prospect of starting over again from scratch. read more

It's been an absolute pleasure to have now worked on 3 separate transactions with Steven. He helped my wife and I purchase our first home, was there again to walk us through when we upgraded to our 2nd home, and now once again has hit a home run in helping us sell our first home. Couldn't have asked for a better experience and a better agent, top notch! read more

Steve had worked with my Mother in 2014 to sell a rental property. My Mother raved about how helpful Steve was to her throughout the process. Because my Mother had dreaded dealing with the sale of this rental property, I was happy to hear how much she enjoyed working with Steve. It impressed me that he personally took the documents to my Mother's home for signing to make the process easier for her. When my Mother and Steve completed the sale of her home, I'd promised my Mother I'd post a review for Steve on Yelp or Zillow. Time marched on and with every intension of posting a review for my Mother there never seemed to be time to get that done. Now I have a bit of time to post a review, not only on behalf of my Mother but also a review representative of my experiences with Steve. After my Mother passed away last year, it was my job to handle the properties in her trust and much of the process would need to be done remotely. Steven's information was in my records and remembering the impression he'd made on my Mother when she had worked with him, I contacted him explaining the situation. To say Steve has been helpful through every phase of the process would be an understatement. Working as we have, with me being out of the area, Steve has stepped up and facilitated so many factors of these transactions that in the past, as a seller, would have fallen on my shoulders. This is not to say that Steve has made the decisions in the process. He has always been careful to lay out options with regard to every choice to be made and has respected and worked with me on each of my decisions. There is one other factor that can make for a near painless real estate transaction and that is to work with all competent and friendly people. Everyone that I've needed to interface with during my work with Steve has presented themselves in the most professional and friendly manor. This includes everyone, even outside companies he hired for things like inspections or work to be done at the properties. Steve just seems to know and work with the best people in the real estate and affiliated business in his area. If you are considering a real estate transaction in areas where Steve conducts his business you could not do better than to choose Steve Zagaris as your realtor. I strongly recommend him. read more
