"I can say that Lucas is the most trustworthy Realtor in the Valley. With excellent knowledge of the real estate market he found us the perfect home for our growing family, getting us the best deal pos-sible. We always felt we were in good hands. We highly recom-mend him as he has proven to be an honest and smart Realtor."

Roman & Deyra Brito

"Our first experience with Lucas Sanchez was that he was highly recommended to us by our pastor, who had bought his house through Lucas; as well as multiple other people at our church who told us of the great experiences they had with Lucas in buying their houses. Even a commercial realtor friend of mine recommended Lucas for residential real estate. We looked at a lot of houses, and Lucas was right there advising us the whole way. He always returned phone calls and did what he said he would. He was not pushy, but really studied our needs, and helped us find the perfect house for our family. He helped us all the way through the negotia-tion of the house and was a huge help when the seller's realtor was difficult to deal with. We ended up getting the house for way less than we thought because of Lucas' advice on negotiation skills. Lu-cas was with us through the closing and even after we got the keys. We have recommended lots of our friends to Lucas, both buyers and sellers, and would recommend anyone to take advantage of Lucas' excellent customer service. If we ever sell this house, Lucas will be the only one we will call. Lucas started out as a highly recom-mended realtor, and is now a friend we would highly recommend to anyone!" God Bless,Lance & Deborah Krueger

"We first met Lucas in March 2009 when we were searching for a home. While the house Lucas was selling did not work for us, we were impressed with his knowledge of the market. Lucas listened to what we were looking for and helped us negotiate a great deal on our house. During the whole process he was always there for us if we had any questions and we never felt pressured. Lucas did such a great job we hired him to help sell our previous house. It truly has been a pleasure to work with Lucas and we would highly recommend that you speak with him when considering the pur-chase of your future home or sale of your current home."

Lino & Kristy Ochoa

"We have bought and sold a few times now, in different cities, and you have surpassed the other realtors in service and dedication. You really know your stuff. There has never been a time where you made us feel as though our questions or concerns were silly. We are so pleased to have you representing us once again. You have brought peace of mind to us both as buyers and as sellers. You live integrity in your work, and we cannot tell you how much it means to know that we can move on with our day confident that you are looking out for us and working hard on our behalf. Thanks for do-ing it all with excellence and authenticity. You are a rare find."Sincerely,The Carreno family
