We were fortunate to receive an all-cash offer and close the deal within an impressive 10 days, thanks to the dedication and expertise of John and Richard. From efficiently setting up inspections to providing valuable guidance on necessary repairs, they made what could have been a daunting process remarkably smooth.

Austin has a wealth of knowledge in the real estate market, his team is quick and efficient-which is vital in today's market, and he maintains clear communication with his clients every step of the way. Within 24 hours of working with him he accomplished creating a portal for us that included many listings matching our criteria, made appointments to view homes we were interested in seeing, and met us at 3 of the listings the following morning. IN 24 HOURS! It is CRUCIAL to find someone who is quick and efficient like Austin because in the blink of an eye, the house of your dreams is being sold to another family. After a few weeks of viewing many homes, we found a house we wanted to make an offer on. Unfortunately, the sellers were going to be reviewing offers that exact same night but Austin got all the proper paperwork in on time and our offer was accepted. He continued to work his magic by negotiating with the sellers and the end results exceeded our expectations. We can't say enough how appreciative we are of his work and his commitment towards ensuring we had a positive home buying experience.

I'd give zero stars if I could…read more I am a first time buyer and honestly before this process I had no idea what all the moving parts were, and I'm slowly learning. I found my realtor, who worked for Canum Realty, through Zillow which led me to working with the Canum team. So Canum Realty provided me with both a loan officer and a realtor. We got started on acquiring a down payment funds with them which were to come from an equity loan on my MIL's outrightly owned house. The loan officer had MIL get started on a loan application for that. So at least one person at Canum Realty knew that I did NOT have funds for a down payment *yet* as they were literally the ones guiding me through that process of getting funds, and they told me it was perfectly fine to move forward with making an offer. We made an offer on a house and were in contract on a house in September, 2022. We were also assured by Canum Realty that the equity loan on MIL's house would go through in time for the seller's desired close date, originally September 22ish (can't remember exact date, but it was definitely that week).  Because the equity loan still hadn't finished processing, we pushed the close date back a week.  Then another week.  In the third week of September, we were told by the Canum team that we'd be able to close on October 7.  Throughout this process, Canum advised us to show proof of other funds which were not to be used, in lieu of proof of the funds that were not yet available, to keep the sellers satisfied. I'm guessing the selling realtor smelled that something was off before I did because eventually the sellers, no fault to them, lost all faith in us and served us a notice to perform.  We felt we had no choice, and we cancelled the contract. I acknowledge Canum Realty is not responsible for how long it would take the loan to process. But they DID help me facilitate my contract when they knew full well that I did not have the funds. They are responsible for the lack of transparency in communication with the seller. And because of this, we went through a very difficult heart break since we lost out on a house we really liked. Can you say that we should have been more prepared to buy a house?  Absolutely.  This was a learning experience for us.  But no matter which way you spin it, the team at Canum gave us absolutely garbage guidance, which put us in an incredibly difficult spot.  This was an incredibly unethical way for them to do business. If they had just done their job properly, I wouldn't be here writing this review, and I wouldn't be warning every buyer I meet about the complete shitshow that is Canum International Realty. Edit: I have redacted the broker's name from this review after receiving bullying and threatening text messages directly from him. It could happen to you. Steer clear of this company.

Outstanding Service with Care, Professionalism, and Results…read more We had an exceptional experience working with Roelof Drenth in the sale of my 97-year-old aunt's condo in Santa Rosa. From start to finish, the process was smooth, timely, and ultimately resulted in multiple offers above asking price--an outcome we couldn't be happier with. What truly set Roelof apart was his ability to manage every detail with professionalism and care. The sale was being handled remotely by myself, along with my cousin and her husband, as we had relocated my aunt to Illinois. It was critical to have someone we could trust on the ground, and Roelof stepped into that role seamlessly. He coordinated cleaning, repairs, and contractors, ensuring the property was fully prepared for market without requiring constant oversight. Equally important was his communication--he was consistently responsive, proactive, and clear at every stage of the process. During what was an emotionally difficult transition for our aunt, his steady presence and willingness to take on the heavy lifting made a meaningful difference. We always felt we were in capable, trustworthy hands. I highly recommend Roelof to anyone looking for a realtor who delivers strong results while also bringing empathy, integrity, and professionalism to the process.

The decision to move, the process of moving, the uncertainty, the financial implications ... all these factors were stressful. It is difficult to trust someone under these circumstances. I found Roelof to be a steady hand, guiding the process in a way that kept us moving toward the goal. He wasn't blind to the human element ... the uncertainty, the emotion, the nerves ... but he seemed to know intuitively that keeping calm and centered and behaving with utmost integrity was the best way forward, the best way of steering the transactions toward the desired outcome. For example, early on we needed to decide on the listing price. I, of course, wanted to reach for the stars, but Roelof cautioned that we needed to be pragmatic in deciding on a selling price. He spent considerable time evaluating the market and recommended a price that he believed would be received favorably by the marketplace. Setting the price too high can make potential buyers hesitate. The final result was that we had an extremely favorable response, having multiple offers, and ultimately sold it for much more than the asking price and more than I had hoped for. I have found Roelof to be competent, honest, reliable, and trustworthy. I highly recommend him as both a buyer and a seller representative.

While we no longer live in Santa Rosa, when it came time to sell the house we needed to find a realtor. Adam came highly recommended to us by a friend. When we met Adam, we were impressed by his energy, personality, and knowledge of the market. As we would later learn, he also was well connected and knowledgeable of the the brokers/realtors in the area. Working with Adam, he walked us through the current Sonoma County housing market and provided a sense of timing for listing the house. He also had some fresh ideas on how to present the home once it was listed. He shared with us his software and media tools that could be used in lieu of "Staging a Home". With such tools, we would possibly lower expenses and allow the buyer to use their own vision of how they might furnish their new home. As mentioned, our family is no longer in the Santa Rosa area. When it came time to do house inspections, the Prosper team took the reins. They set up up the appointments and oversaw the work. Adam's Associate, Sarah Ramirez, was incredible in working through this effort. Both Adam and Sarah kept us well informed all along the way. As we continued to prep the house, we came across what seemed to be big obstacles. Fortunately, Adam and the team had solutions. This included contacts for Estate Sales, landscaping prep, and how to handle items left in the house that the family did not want - that the family otherwise would have to haul away. In short, Prosper handled all the major issues and it all became very easy for the family. In the end, the house sold much faster than we would have ever expected. It was a very smooth process and our expenses were held at a minimum. We highly recommend Prosper to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. A big thank you to Adam, Sarah, and the Prosper team.
