Review I have purchased many homes and commercial properties in my life and I have never worked with any realtor that was as fast and thorough as Tony. He always responded instantly and many times he had already done what I was requesting. He also has good bargaining insight but unlike other realtors will respect his customer's decision without judgement. I found him a very refreshing change from the dozens of realtors I have worked with in the past. If you want someone who is honest, profesional, super responsive and easy to work with, then Tony is your guy.

Review When it came time to sell our home, we started a search for the best realtor to represent our needs. We questioned other home sellers, observed sales activity in our neighborhood, and began a web search for an appropriate realtor. After a few weeks we boiled it down to four potential candidates. We set up interviews with each at our house. As we proceeded with the interviews, it quickly became clear that Tony Melo, of Aldina Real Estate would be our #1 choice. During the interview process, Tony spent a great deal of time to answer all our questions. He offered his considerable knowledge about the listing and sales process, status of the market in our area, and gave us great recommendations about selling that were in harmony with our specific desires. Tony came to us prepared with a professional presentation packet. It contained information about his professional realtor credentials, current comparable sales in our area, current market prices, analysis about potential listing prices, and estimated time to sell. Once we agreed to use his services, he created a beautiful on-line web site specifically of our house. As inquiries came for viewings, he set specific schedule of dates and times for showings. As we proceeded through the process, Tony was always promptly available by text, email or voicemail. The result, the house sold for over list price within five days. We were amazed! During escrow, Tony did all the homework and made the transaction process completely pain free. We sincerely appreciate all the work Tony put in to bring the sale to the finish line. Tony is very professional, has a great deal of experience and is a highly qualified realtor. Tony exceeded all our expectations, and we think he is great!- John Herne

Review Tony was everything we could have hoped for from a Realtor when selling our home. He made sure that we understood every part of the process, and gave us advice and insight every step of the way. Tony was great about making us feel connected and updated anytime there was any news or information, making sure to stay in frequent communication with us and all parties involved. We were confident in knowing that he was there to make sure everything flowed smoothly through the entire transaction, and he did not let us down. From getting the home freshened up for sale to the close of escrow, we were glad to have Tony and his team behind us. We would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to sell a home. In addition, we learned a lot of great information that we can use moving forward when we go to purchase our new home in the future. If possible, we would definitely work with him again on any type of transaction!

Review Tony took his time to explain everything in detail when we were selling our house. He made recommendations that brought in top dollar. Since we were out of the area, Tony went above and beyond by keeping an eye on our house and watering the new grass. He was very quick at responding to emails and conscientious about keeping procedures safe during Covid. Tony is someone you can trust as he made our selling experience very easy.

Review Tony Melo is the worst agent. We had a horrific experience where he got angry and then blew our trust and confidence. He got upset that we were considering backing out of the purchase. He forwarded private texts between me and him to the seller and others lashing out. Go with another agent and agency.

Tony was able to explain everything to us and help us feel comfortable making our decisions. He focuses on educating his clients so that they can make the best decisions for themselves. He is very knowledgeable in his business. I would 100% recommend him.

Review Tony Melo made my first time home buying experience an amazing one! I kept being told how stressful,frustrating and crazy buying a home will be. This was not the case working with Tony and his team. Being a very busy time for them they were able to stay ahead of schedule and make things happen for us all while maintaining consistent and professional communication. Tony and his team are very efficient and will get things done on time. He is very thorough with the documentation and making sure all the details are correct to keep the process moving smoothly. My family and I could not thank him enough for his help buying our first home. I highly recommend working with Tony Melo!!

Tony patiently explained every step of the process and had the answers to any questions that I asked him. He was always readily available by phone or email, which is fantastic.If you are looking for a realtor that is knowledgeable, responsive and a joy to work with I would highly recommend that you contact Tony!

Review Tony was of great help when helping us purchase our first home. As first time home owners, we were not really sure what to expect . However, Tony made everything a breeze. He always took time to explain what each procedure was and always gave us his professional opinion based on years of experience. Not to mention how quickly we were able to start the hunt for our forever home. Sure enough, we found our forever home. From beginning to end Tony made the entire process as stress free as possible for us and is also very dedicated to those he was helping.

Review Tony is the man. He is totally professional in all aspects of his chosen field.Tony helped us sell our parents' family home after the death of my father at age 101. The house had been the family home they built it in 1953, and it hadn't been updated for years. Tony helped us choose what improvements/changes were going to be beneficial vs what was not worth doing. He recommended subcontractors for the painting, doors & windows and flooring--all of whom worked out very well.Tony is organized, energetic and detail-oriented. He communicates compulsively, making sure we knew what was going on at all times and setting expectations realistically. He knows the local market and the local players in the RE game (lenders, appraisers, RE brokers, mortgage brokers, title companies, etc.). He is also up to date on the latest laws and regulations, national, state-wide and local.This is the third house I have sold during my life, and Tony was easily the best agent of the bunch. Tony is committed to his profession, works at it full time and knows what he is doing. And he will keep you out of trouble. Highly recommended.

Review Buying and selling a home can be vey stressful. When both of these transactions are happening in unison, a great deal of knowledge and organization is needed for the transactions to go smoothly. We couldn't have asked for a better agent to work with than Tony. He is very thorough, knowledgable, and organized. Him having these skill sets made the entire process stress-free and easy. We can't thank Tony enough for his professionalism and guidance.

Review Tony was so wonderful to work with! We were referred to him by a mutual friend. He was extremely knowledgeable about the area in which we planned to purchase a home. We were well informed throughout every step of our concurrent selling and purchasing journey. We appreciated his professionalism, excellent communication, and skill level. Every part of the transaction was super smooth and well mangaged. Our kids were spoiled with treats along the way, leaving them sad that our "Tony meetings" have come to an end. :) We sold our condo and bought a new home very quickly. We are beyond pleased and grateful for our experience.

Review Tony was an absolute pleasure to work with, from beginning to end. Unsure and a bit nervous about taking such a big step, we contacted him to let him know we were thinking about purchasing our first home. Tony has helped my sister and her family, as well as my in-laws, and they both could not recommend him enough. He took the time to sit down with us, and explain in detail everything we needed to know, answered each and every question, and even had his trusted side-kick Lender there to walk us through it all. He made it all seem like such a breeze. He made his recommendations, but made sure to never be pushy, and still let us take our time to make our decisions. He is as professional and knowledgeable as they come. He had many connections with vendors to help us with inspections, worked tirelessly day and night to answer questions via email or text, connected with us the second a property came on the market, took the time to carefully and masterfully negotiate with sellers when needed, and even went out of his way to educate sellers' Agents when they seemed confused on the process.We cannot recommend him enough! You will be extremely pleased with his professionalism, hard-working and honest approach - AND end up with your dream home, even if it seemed unattainable at first!

Review My husband used Tony to purchase a home many years ago and had nothing but good things to say about him, so we decided to try him again even though most of his business is in Santa Cruz County. I'm so happy we went with Tony. I had a unique situation because I secured a loan from my employer, who upon inspection, requested repairs as a condition of the loan approval. I was concerned because the repairs were in the $25k range and I didn't want to use up more of my cash reserves. Tony resolved this issue expertly by negotiating with the selling agent to make the repairs part of the home sale agreement. Tony also took the extra step to recommend and arrange for contractors to repair the roof and termite issues. I appreciated that Tony took the time to explain each step of the process. He made us feel like we were his top priority and had our best interest in mind. He made it very easy and stress free. I wholeheartedly recommend Tony to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home.

Review We contacted Tony for the first time in July 2018. Being it was our first sale in the present market, we had a lot of questions. Tony pleasantly and patiently listened to our concerns and walked us through our options, never pressuring us to list with him. Once our decision was made to sell, Tony helped us list our home at a fair price. Tony's knowledge and experience in the real estate field was evident. We saw his professionalism and integrity as we worked together through the process. I emphasize "together", for we saw Tony advise only in the interest of his clients, namely us. We listed our old but cute little family home of 43 years on August 9, 2018. We closed escrow on November 5, 2018. I feel it was Tony's passion for what he does that made this possible. I highly recommend Tony for all your real estate needs.

Review Working with Tony Melo exceeded all our expectations. As first time homebuyers we were not familiar with the process. Right away Tony was incredibly friendly and professional took time to sit down with my husband and I to determine what would be a good fit for us. He always answered all our concerns and questions which made us feel confident and made things clear for us to understand the process, thats what i loved about Tony it relieve our stress level.Tony was willing to meet with us late for all the viewings of listings as soon as he would see a potential property for us he would make it happen. Paperwork was always ready so that if we would say yes that the offer would be submitted asap. I truly believe his expertise helped tremendously in our offer getting accepted. I highly recommend Tony Melo he is the best!

Review We had to sell the family home and interviewed some realtors in the area. Tony blew us away. Personable, professional, responsive (he met with us soon after contact), he absolutely knew the area and its needs. He told us the comps, what worked , what could be enhanced, what we could expect in each layer of upgrade. He also had a team that could deliver the remodel in prompt fashion and we had it on the market during peak season. The house went into contract for the asking price the first day after the open house. Tonys attention to detail and Aldinas infrastructure and business relationships made the process seamless. I cant thank him enough....

Review Tony was very professional throughout the entire process of my home sale. From the very beginning he was very diligent in keeping me in the loop with all updates and changes. Some of the work he provided from the very beginning included a website for the property that did a fantastic job in promoting the home, the surrounding area, public spaces, and aerial photos of the surrounding community. We spent a lot of time together working out small issues to make the property presentable and he was always eager to assist as well as making his time available to help me with my questions.Tony was always proactive when reaching out to me in times of no activities with viewings, and made suggestions of necessary adjustments to better the chances of sale.For anyone that is contemplating of working with Tony, know that you found a representing agent that will go out of his way and make time to help you with your needs.I initially chose Tony as his reviews were exceptional, and after working with Tony, I too strongly recommend his services to anyone that is looking for a representing agent.

Review Our experience working with Tony was a great one and we will definitely go back to him and refer him to friends and family. He was always very professional and punctual. Since the moment we started working with him he was on it! He coached us through the entire process. He referred to get pre-approved for our mortgage loan, he would almost always work around our schedule to go see houses even after normal working hours or weekends and if he was not available he would send another colleague, he would constantly give us updates on upcoming or new listings, when it came to finding a house he encouraged us to do necessary inspections so we felt comfortable with our offer and purchase, he also contacted our insurance agency on our behalf to get us quotes for a home policy and when it came to sealing the deal he was able to get us a great credit back from the sellers towards our closing costs. Thank you Tony. The Carrisales Family.
