We had the pleasure of being Sylvia's clients in our most recent home purchase. With the market conditions being extremely competitive - over 10 offers submitted on the home within one day of it being listed, Sylvia not only applied her strategy honed from her years' of experience to help us secure the winning contract, she provided us with her prompt five-star 'concierge' style service with aplomb. She's everything one could ask for in a realtor and we feel so fortunate to have her as our realtor.

Sylvia helped me purchase a home in Arroyo Grande during the summer of 2021 in the height of the seller's market. There were over a dozen offers but using her unique strategies and expertise in this type of market, my offer was accepted over all others! I got a job transfer out of state shortly after purchasing and needed to sell. I was a little worried about losing money because I was only in my new home for about 6 months. Sylvia told me what improvements to make, she got the bids, and managed the contractors that did the work. I listed my home with Sylvia and it sold right away, and I actually made a profit! The advice she gave me was golden, and I actually made a profit after only owning my home for a few months. Sylvia is great at communication and keeping you informed, and you can tell she has her clients best interests at heart. I highly recommend her.

Sylvia Lunsford was the listing agent/realtor of record for the sale of my mother's home in Arroyo Grande, CA in August of 2020. Her professionalism in giving me accurate information, following through with issues that needed her expertise and her friendly style of communication made the transaction one of great ease. She assisted me in bringing the home up-to-date, coordinating with vendors on my behalf. All this while interacting with me while I lived out of the area during the pandemic. The support team she has developed were superb as well. I can't say enough about my gratitude for who she is. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a true real estate professional.

I have worked with Sylvia for over 20 years on real estate transactions and she has always been very professional, responsive and diligent. She knows her stuff and will make the transaction as stress-free as possible!

I was looking for a real estate agent with expertise in investment property. I interviewed and hired Sylvia Lunsford because of her experience as both a real estate agent and investment property owner. Sylvia located an ideal property in Grover Beach for me to fix and flip. She also helped manage and schedule my contractors as I live in southern California. She made the entire process stress free for me, which is really saying a lot. When the rehab was complete, I listed the property with Sylvia and she sold it in a few short weeks. The transactions both went smoothly, both for the purchase and the sale, and I was kept up to speed every step of the way. Sylvia is a very good communicator and excellent listener, she pays attention to detail, and truly wants the best outcome for her clients. I can't recommend her highly enough!
