" Damien listened to my needs. He was always available when I had questions. He would return my calls in a timely manner. He gave me good direction and feedback. When I found a house that I wanted, he was willing to go the extra mile for me. Example: taking measurements and letting me know the condition of the house. Since he was a contractor previously, his help was very important. Since I live out of state currently this information was very valuable for me to make the right decision in purchasing this house. I would highly recommend Damien for anyone who would like to work with a true professional. "

" Melia is an exceptional Realtor and I'd absolutely use her in the future! We used her to list and purchase. At the price point and current market conditions, we were concerned that our home wouldn't sell quickly. With her expertise and substantiated value, we sold in 2 days of listing! The listing process was easy, and she prepped us well on what to expect and what needed to be done. Throughout the entire listing and purchasing process, she kept our interests top of mind. She was very helpful while we were viewing properties; pointing out flaws that could be costly down the road, as well as the potential that was waiting to be unlocked. When it came time to offer, her negotiation skills were excellent. Melia has the respect of the other Realtors, not only in Sutter County, but in Placer County, as well. Her communication with them is supreme. She was upfront and honest with each of them. When it came time for us to make an offer, she guided us on what a strong offer would be, based on the market, condition of the property, and location. Melia was a wealth of information, excellent negotiator, and patient as we decided what was important to us in our next home. She loves what she does, and it shows! "

" I had the pleasure of working with Damian Bautista from Next Home Realty to purchase my first home, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. My situation was not simple, we worked with the Placer County down payment assistance program along with a second lender, which made the process very long but Damian was incredible every step of the way. From start to finish, he went above and beyond. He never once made me feel like my questions were too much, and he stayed fully engaged and supportive even though my home search lasted well over a year. He showed me 30+ homes during that time and was always flexible with my schedule, whether it was early mornings, late evenings, weekends, or even last-minute showings. What stood out the most was his communication and honesty. He was always quick to respond, transparent, and made sure I understood everything. As a first-time homebuyer, that meant a lot. He took the time to sit down with me and go through every document page by page, making sure I was comfortable and never signing anything I didn’t fully understand. Damian’s knowledge, patience, and reliability made what could have been a stressful process feel manageable and even enjoyable. He truly carried me through the process and made buying my first home a great experience. I would highly recommend him to anyone especially first-time buyers who want someone they can trust to guide them every step of the way. "

He had a specific strategy and it worked because of his thorough knowledge of Auburn and his expansive real estate background. This move was an extraordinary one since we moved to South Carolina but it encompassed four states. Damian provided us a Realtor in SC as our contact to find our new home out there. Damian was professional, on time, answered all of our questions, gave us excellent advice on home repairs since he was a former General Contractor, friendly, honest, and a great listener.
