About Trina Rufo

I believe that your word means something. I believe that listening is more important than talking. I believe that your dreams are attainable. I believe that hard work pays off. I believe that honesty and transparency builds solid relationships. Born and raised in Long Beach, CA and specifically a California Heights native est. 1967. My family owned, and we all worked at our restaurant, Mario's Pizza Deli, on the corner of Orange/Wardlow from 1978 until my father retired over 20 years later. Being a Realtor means service, compassion and follow through on behalf of each of my special clients, without fail. I have a far reaching background in the mortgage lending industry that began in 1989. Making the decision to leave that behind several years ago, and solely pursue being a Realtor, has been most satisfying. I take the years of knowledge from mortgage lending, with the passion I have to serve and help others, and have turned it into my life's work. Walking people through one of the three biggest decisions they could make in life outside of marriage and having children, is home ownership. I was the business liaison and on the PTA board for Longfellow Elementary School for several years. In that position, I worked with our small business owners to help support our school and built continuing relationships with our local business partners. Participating in the many community events in Cal Heights and Bixby Knolls , such as the California Heights Historical Home and Garden Tour, has kept me fully engaged with my home community where my roots are. Because I am a true native of the 90807 zip code of Long Beach, I am considered an expert of the area. I will use my lifelong love and knowledge of this incredible area of Long Beach to help navigate clients through selling or purchasing here. I would be honored to walk with you, or someone you may know, through this journey.
Community Involvement
I sponsor and support our local schools and the California Heights Neighborhood Association
FAMILY
Am blessed to be married to the greatest man in the world. We have 5 amazing children and 2 very special grandchildren.

I chose Trina to help sell my Long Beach condo because I wanted an agent who was knowledgeable and experienced, familiar with my area, and a good communicator. She had many positive reviews so she was the first agent I met to discuss the sale. After that meeting, I was convinced that Trina was the agent I wanted. She answered all my questions and gave me the information I needed to set the listing price and understand what to expect. We got a good offer right away, from a motivated buyer. We were initially told the escrow would be short, and Trina was busy getting activities such as appraisal and home inspection scheduled promptly. As it happened, the escrow dragged on as the lender failed to deliver on promises. It was stressful, but I felt confident that I had Trina protecting my interests and providing the information I needed. When an agent needs to deal with problems, you really find out if they know what they are doing and are willing to work to find a solution, and Trina showed that she is an excellent agent. I was pleased with Trinas performance and glad I had her helping get the deal closed.

We have had the pleasure of working with Trina during both sale and purchase of different properties. Throughout both experiences, Trina was knowledgeable, responsive, understanding, and effective. Her years of experience as a real estate agent really show in her knowledge of the process (sales and purchase), her skills as a negotiator, and her communication with all parties involved. Trina showed patience as we navigated a very difficult housing market while also being extremely discerning. We wholeheartedly recommend Trina for your real estate needs.

We contacted Trina as soon as we decided to renovate and sell our condo after many years as a rental. She worked with us to update the paint colors, counter tops, and flooring to ensure a quick sale. After an unbelievable series of setbacks with uncooperative contractors, plumbing issues, and roof leaks that needed repairs, she stuck with us for the entire duration. We live out of state, and she was our only true advocate in the area. She is very persistent and worked relentlessly on our behalf to move the process forward. With her strategic recommendations, we finally got the unit listed, received an all-cash offer within 7 days, and closed 14 days later! There is nobody in Southern California I would trust more than Trina.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Trina Rufo while selling my aunt's house, and I can't recommend her enough! Trina was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process. She took the time to organize everything and ensured that every detail was handled efficiently. Her expertise and attention to detail made the selling process incredibly smooth and stress-free. If you're looking for a dedicated professional to help you with real estate, Trina is the one to call!

Trina provided excellent wrap-around realtor expertise on the sale of a family home. Because it was an unexpected sale, we appreciated professional references for upgrades and staging, along with her time dedicated to achieving a successful price, marketing and having a team of professionals . The escrow and title teammates, made the negotiations after inspection and appraisal smooth as well. We appreciate Trinas wealth of experience, genuine concern for seller and buyer and her prompt reply to Email/Text. Thank you Sincerely.
