We worked with Dylan on our first home purchase in California, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience — especially buying in the Santa Cruz Mountains. He was incredibly friendly, responsive, and always quick to get back to us. He was very open to showing lots of houses and, impressively, already knew detailed information about most of the properties we asked to see — often things that weren’t available online. His knowledge of the area was outstanding. He understood the neighborhoods on public water versus well water, common soil issues, road access challenges, and other local considerations that would never have crossed our minds coming from Minnesota. Due to us looking at major fixer-uppers and flips, his insight was invaluable. He knew what issues to look for, had contractor recommendations for just about every trade we discussed, and was genuinely excited to negotiate aggressively when the numbers made sense. Most importantly, he never pressured us to make an offer and always let us move at our own pace. We would absolutely work with him again. If you’re buying in the Santa Cruz Mountains — especially if you’re new to California or considering properties with unique challenges — we highly recommend Dylan.

Dylan was great. He’s very knowledgeable about the area, the culture and the geography. He’s responsive and always got back to me super fast. He helped us find the perfect parcel for our needs.

I had a great experience working with Dylan on the off-market purchase of a duplex in Felton. His deep knowledge of the Santa Cruz Mountains gave me a huge advantage, especially in finding a deal that never hit the public market. Dylan identified the opportunity early, handled negotiations with ease, and guided me through every step of the transaction with full clarity. I most appreciated his attention to detail and understanding of mountain-living considerations - septic, treework, hazard insurance, and more. He was responsive and transparent, making what could have been a stressful process feel smooth. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome and would highly recommend Dylan to anyone looking to buy property in Santa Cruz County.
