We had an appointment to meet Sara at one of her listings on Pebble Beach in Mission Viejo. Sara was prompt, professional, personable and kind. The home was quite nice and priced right. We are always searching to upgrade to more square footage and a definite view. Sara is such an amazing person who is skilled, knowledgeable and straightforward honest which was so refreshing. We valued our time with Sara who impressed us with her genuine and loving approach in our search and quest for that perfect home. Highly recommended read more

I can't speak highly enough of Sara Collins as my real estate agent. Her professionalism, knowledge, honesty, integrity, and hard work ethics are very much appreciated and respected. Over the years we have used Sara to sell and purchase a handful of homes. Some of the properties she worked on with us were investment rental properties and she handled the communication between the tenants and us very well. I can also say the same about the process of buying and the communication between us and the buyers to get a smooth transaction with the best outcome. Our last purchase with Sara was our dream house! She spent the time going to open houses, finding out what our likes and needs were and making sure we found it. Now we get to raise our family in our dream house, and it is because of Sara. I think of how appreciative of Sara I am daily. She is one of the hardest working, detail oriented, motivate and kind people I know. She is very good with people, and has a knack for matching the buyer with the owner... Furthermore, what she predicted the sale to be like, was indeed what happened, and in a very short amount of time. Each and every time! She knows the business and I wouldn't trust anyone else to handle any of our buying or selling needs. read more

My wife and I were looking to purchase our first home - we knew which community we wanted and we went to an open house. Low and behold, we met Sara! She put out Girl Scout cookies, the place looked and smelled AMAZING!! She was the nicest person ever too, and after meeting with so many realtors, we could tell she was the best and most genuine. So we didn't end up getting that house, BUT we immediately asked Sara to be our realtor and it was the best decision we could've done :) She's amazing at every step of the way, and as of the beginning of April, we have our first house!!!! Highly recommend read more

She is the type that goes above and beyond to make you extremely happy and make the process of it all stress-free. It's crazy to think that this experience was the easiest transaction we have ever made. Which tells a lot because I am 6 months pregnant. Her communication skills, professionalism and her persistency was absolutely INCREDIBLE. Giving her 5 stars seems like an insult! She deserves the freaking crown!!! Yelpers, she's a must have!!! Call her now!! read more

Sara Collins and Michelle Hyman were amazing to work with! They both helped my father sell his penthouse apartment last year and I had the pleasure to work with them this summer. They both were lifesavers during the $20k remodel process and they were incredibly helpful on helping me determine what to update, replace or hold-off on. The house sold very quickly and for $35k over asking. I will absolutely call The Collins group/ Sara/ Michelle for future real estate transactions. read more

I've bought 4 houses and have recently started renting. I've never been treated with such attention and respect as I have working with the Collins group. Thank you for helping me and my kids find a place they can call home. read more

We met Sara and the Collins group at a open house and the rest was history. She's the best real estate agent and my husband and I feel so blessed to have met her. She was on top of everything and answered all our questions and concerns to the full extent. If you're looking for a smart, professional, excellent agent, you're in good hands :) she'll be responsive and go beyond any concerns you have. read more

When we put our house on the market we were so worried about how this was going to go. We work full time, have a 2 year old child, and a senior dog. How were we going to show our home? How were we going to get everything done so we could show our home? How would we do this without too much disruption to our daily lives? How? Not to mention the emotional stress this was going to bring being our first home we owned and the place we brought our baby home from the hospital. All this stress without even putting our house one the market! Then Sara Collins came into the picture with her calm, cool, can do, no problem attitude. From the first second she came to our home she put us at ease. We never once had to worry about the "how". She made it HER job to worry about the "how". Never once did we feel less than her only client even though we knew she was handling multiple deals all while moving her own family into a new home. Through all that, when I was stressing out and called her... she picked up each and every time. She talked me off the ledge each and every time. My husband lovingly calls her my "therapist". She put our family first, making sure that we were inconvenienced as little as possible. She priced our home over what we ever imagined but accurately as it pulled in multiple offers and selling over asking! Her knowledge of the market is second to none. She did everything in her power to make sure we would only move one time by renting back thus uproot our child only one time and for that I will be forever grateful. She knew the best way to handle our sale and our family to make sure that we were taken care of. When we bought our dream house, it was a seller's market. We beat out 7 offers and the reason they picked our offer? Sara. Her care and personality make everyone want to like her, be friends with her or both. When the seller's agent tells you that your agent is literally the best... there is really not much else you have to say for a ringing endorsement. She went from our agent to our friend to family. Auntie Sara, as she is known to our son, will always be part of our family. We couldn't have dreamed of a better person to have our best interest at heart in this very crazy market. read more

Also, it's important to mention my condo received offers after a few days and 1 open house. Sara attends to details and gets things done!! read more

We have purchased many houses over the years. Sara is, by far, the best agent we've had. From start to finish she was thorough, communicative and persistent. Our last purchase, the seller's agent told us, if it wasn't for Sara, the owner would have picked another buyer. Thanks Sara Collins! read more

Sara is the absolute best realtor I have ever had the pleasure of working with. I have bought and sold 11 properties before I met her and she is heads and shoulders above anyone I have worked with before. Sara goes above and beyond what you would expect. She has extensive knowledge of neighborhoods, extensive contacts such as painters, HVAC, plumbers, trash pick up, gardeners, anyone you need she has great contacts for you to work with who are very competitively priced and are excellent vendors. She will walk you through the whole process whether it's pricing your property, showing the property, what to prepare ahead of time, what to spend money on or what is not necessary to do to sell. Any unforeseen situations that might arise (like my A/C unit developing a leak 3 days before being put on the market), she is right there with you to resolve immediately. She priced my home competitively to get the most traffic and negotiated on my behalf for the best outcome. She is always reachable, whether early or late in the day/evening/weekends, she is always accessible. She sold my primary residence - and though I was already working with another realtor before I met her for a purchase in another city - she did not hesitate to offer her insights and knowledge on that purchase (even though she would not benefit from it in any form) and even saved me some heartache that the other realtor should have pointed out. She just cares about helping you in any way possible. I can't say enough good things about her, her integrity, her knowledge, her professionalism, her energy, and man, she really goes to bat for you. I have very high standards and expectations, Sara exceeds them in every way. I can recommend her without any qualms. If you have the opportunity to work with her on a purchase or sale - go for it - you can not go wrong - AND you will have a friend for life. Sara is beyond special and 1 of a kind in the world of real estate. read more

Sara is great! Sara represented my family on the buy side. She is very informative and walked us through the process of buying a home as any veteran would do with ease.

Sara has a vast network of contractors that can handle/fix anything needed. She was very helpful in meeting these contractors during and after close. This was a big help for us!

Sara is by far the best real estate professional I've ever worked with. She is profession yet very friendly and personable. She is knowledgable and was able to guide us through the selling process masterfully. She went above and beyond what any other agent has ever done in my experience - preparing the house for showings, hosting multiple open houses with cookies that she baked, following up quickly with potential buyers, preparing neighborhood information for buyers and appraisers, being on site to meet with inspectors and contractors, and really just treating the sale as if it were her own house she was selling. I feel that Sara really went the extra mile for me, and I could not be more pleased with the results. read more

She worked tirelessly to make the deal happen. From negotiating with the sellers to calling on her extensive network of service contractors, she was there every step of the way. read more

Sara and her real estate agent, Billy, worked with my wife and I on our first home purchase. I can't say enough great things about this pair. They are the dynamic duo! We felt comfortable through the entire process and couldn't be happier with their service. When we selected Billy and Sara to represent us, they've been extremely prompt with us, our lender, escrow, and even the seller agent. Literally, they would answer the phone immediately or call back within 5 minutes. This probably was a big reason why we got our home in the first place. They are the most efficient pair I've ever seen. We spent one and only one day viewing homes with Billy. Our first offer was the only offer that we needed. Billy and Sara pushed the paper work so fast we couldn't get a chance to put a second offer down! Till this day, I continue to talk to both Sara and Billy for advice on random home issues. They are still happy to provide suggestions or tips. I highly recommend these two and I will definitely have them represent us for our next home purchase. read more

Sara and her team went above and beyond for us every step of the way. Sara is compassionate, organized, and well versed in her industry. We successfully sold our condo after only be listed for 4 days at asking price and in December! Sara then found our dream forever home within weeks. She jumped into action and gracefully worked with the selling agent and family to ensure they got to know us and we're confident that in addition to our offer, we would be the right family to take care of their home. Sara always put our needs and wants first and her team was extremely proactive with process and paperwork. Because of this, there were never any surprises or delays. We highly recommend Sara and her team at The Collins Group OC. read more

I can't say enough good things about working with Sara Collins on selling my townhome. I put this off for months because I just didn't have enough time to put into the process of listing, getting my townhome ready to turn-over, etc. But as soon as I reached out to Sara she took control of the entire process and got the ball rolling immediately. There was very little work I had to do on my end...Sara took care of all the heavy lifting and reached out to me when she needed any info, a signature, something filled out, etc. What I like about working with Sara most was how extremely organized and knowledgeable she is of the whole buying and selling process. She possesses confidence in her daily interactions with her clients which put me, my current tenants and the buyer at ease. I was so pleased with the whole process on working with her and look forward to reaching out to her when I'm ready to buy my next home. read more

We met Sara Collins (referred by a friend) and I was impressed from the beginning by her appearance and manners. We were at crossroads trying to decide if we should rent or buy a house. We didn't have a lot of time to search. From previous experiences buying or selling a house is a nightmare. Collin's Group proved me wrong: very knowledgeable of the process of buying and selling Sara Collins guide us from the moment we explained her what we are looking for in a house. Our lifestyle and health reduced the number of houses to a handful. Our budget also limited our options in the location we desire to live. Sara immediately help us to present our financial status and have us preapproved in a very short time. Excellent negotiator she helps us to offer a price that was in our budget but also appealing to the seller. Once our offer was accepted a chain of reaction started. From the inspections to the negotiations with the seller everything was organized. In the same time the process of escrow started rolling fast. More than everything Sara kept us informed in a unique way: we were included in all her correspondence by email or phone with the financial department, seller's agent, inspectors and contractors, etc. Never had a question not answered. Everybody worked hard to make our experience smooth. For many people is hard to believe but we met Sara Collins for the first time in August 16th and we walked in our home on September 30Th. Collin's Group is not just a firm it is a REALITY! Sara Collin's skills as a real estate agent are combined with her ability to anticipate, organize and coordinate. She genuinely cares for her clients. Her charm and pleasant company made our experience so special. We are grateful for knowing her and we will recommend her without hesitation to anybody who has interest in buying or selling a house. read more

Sara helped us buy and sell a home at the same time. This was our fifth home purchase, but our first time trying to coordinate the sale and purchase of a home at the same time without having to find a temporary living situation between the two. Sara was professional, organized, and efficient and ensured that the process ran smoothly and the timing worked out perfectly, which was no easy task! In addition to her effectiveness, she was also kind, supporting, and caring throughout what can easily be a very stressful process. I'm so grateful to have worked with her and now call her my friend too! read more
