We were very happy to have Jose Peralta and Matt Ciociolo work with us to buy a home and sell our older home. Jose scheduled all meetings and interactions at our convenience after work and on weekends. He provided us with outstanding advice about how to prepare our home for sale and placing offers for our newer home. He provided a profile on the house for people touring and provided comps for price comparisons for our new home purchase. He promptly answered and returned all phone calls.  He had advertising (Internet and hard copies) in place as soon as possible for potential buyers for our home he listed. He worked hard, illustrated a great understanding of contract details, negotiation etiquette and documentation.

Our home for sale had multiple offers within the first 30 days after listing. I am confident that the reason we were able to sell our home, at a great price point during a tough market, was because of the advertising and activities conducted as well as the broker opens that Jose and Matt held. They found us a great new home located in a great gated community in a great neighborhood. We really appreciated Jose and Matt's calm reassurance and expert advice throughout the entire process (both buying and selling). They were outstanding professionals and we highly recommend them to all others that are interested in buying or selling a home.

Sincerely,

To Whom It May Concern:

We would like to recommend Jose Peralta and Matt Ciociolo, Realtors from Remax of Valencia, for the excellent job they have performed during the past several months.  They have helped us find an investment property in the Glendale/Burbank area.  We found both Jose and Matt to be very pleasant and helpful to work with.  They both helped us find a condominium in our price range, and did everything possible to accommodate our requirements.

During our search for investment properties, Matt, with whom we worked with the most, was very patient with us.  One of his best qualities was listening to exactly what we wanted and answering all of our questions.  Along with all of this, he remained professional and worked hard to find us the right property.  Matt provided us with every possible option so that, together, we could best decide upon the path that was the most beneficial to us and helped achieve our real estate goals.  Matt was always showing us multiple listings within our chosen area with great enthusiasm.  He showed us dozens of homes that met our criteria, and finally, we found the right property.

During very stressful times, like around signing the final contract and closing escrow, Matt and Jose's professionalism in carrying out their responsibilities as our agents were beyond reproach.  Their attention to all the details, responding to phone calls and keeping us abreast of everything that was happening certainly took a lot of the pressure off us.

With their in depth knowledge of the real estate market, real estate contracts and escrow closings, they helped to steer matters and successfully close the transaction on time.

Besides being actively involved in the closing of the property, Matt and Jose went the extra mile and helped us find a good renter quickly so that the property was vacant for the minimum amount of time with minimum loss.

We feel that purchasing real estate through RE/MAX of Valencia was a wonderful and successful experience that we will remember and will want to avail of in the future should another opportunity arise.  We appreciate all of Matt and Jose's efforts and hard work along with their professionalism and constant communication.  We would highly recommend Matt and Jose to our friends for any of their real estate needs.

Sincerely,

Kuljeet & Rita Arora
