I cannot thank Ernie enough for helping me sell and buy my new home in Tustin recently. It was a 3-way contingency deal where I had to sell my home in order to buy a new home, and the seller for my new home had to sell in order to buy her new place. Even though there were some bumps and complications along the way due to the nature of this situation, Ernie stayed very professional, communicative, and worked hard to make everything to go as smoothly as possible. He was a great advocate for me throughout the whole process, and it was evident that he truly cares for his clients and their needs. What really stood out for me was how his professionalism and work ethic also created such positive relationships with the other realtors and their clients involved. This played a significant role especially when challenges came up and we needed everyone to work together in order to problem-solve. I highly recommend Ernie for anyone who is looking to sell or buy!

Ernie was really helpful and pointed me in the right direction when I had questions about real estate. He clearly knows the industry and took the time to explain things without making it complicated. Overall, very professional knows exactly what he’s doing wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.

Buying our first home as newlyweds was both exciting and intimidating, but working with Ernie made the process smoother, smarter, and honestly—WAY less stressful than we imagined. We knew early on that when it comes to real estate, time IN the market is more important than trying to TIME the market, which pushed us to start our search sooner rather than later. Thankfully, we had Ernie by our side to guide us every step of the way. What stood out to us most when choosing a real estate agent was finding someone who would genuinely have our best interests at heart—not just someone chasing a sale. Ernie exceeded our expectations. He was patient, informative, and always available to explain every step of the process. As first-time home-buyers, we had a million questions, and not once did he make us feel like a burden or silly for asking. Instead, he empowered us with knowledge and made sure we fully understood each document before signing anything. What we valued most about working with Ernie was how down-to-earth, honest, and approachable he was. He never pushed us, never rushed us. He took our concerns seriously and advocated for us like a true partner. It felt like we had a trusted friend in our corner—someone who wasn’t just trying to “close a deal” but genuinely cared about helping us find the right home for our future. If you’re buying or selling a home, do yourself a favor and work with someone you trust. Someone who listens, communicates clearly, and takes the time to teach you what you need to know. For us, that person was Ernie—and we couldn't recommend him more highly.

Ernie Aguilar is a an awesome real estate agent! He was recommended by a family member who he also helped find a home for his family too. Ernie helped us find the perfect home and at the most perfect spot in Santa Ana. Our family is now next to very soon to be newly remodeled park and school, perfect for our little toddler. I highly recommend Ernie! As first-time homebuyers, my partner and I were nervous about the whole process. Ernie was patient, knowledgeable, and always available to answer our (many!) questions. Furthermore, he was very transparent. From our initial consultation to closing, Ernie demonstrated a genuine commitment to finding us the perfect home. He also listened carefully to our needs and preferences, and never pressured us into making a decision we weren't comfortable with. His expertise in the local market was invaluable, and he was able to guide us through every step of the process with confidence. What truly set Ernie apart was his dedication and responsiveness. He was always quick to schedule showings, provide updates, and advocate for our best interests. Thanks to Ernie's hard work and expertise, we found the perfect home for our family. We are incredibly grateful for his support and would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy realtor. If you are looking for someone who will go above and beyond, contact Ernie Aguilar!

Thank you to Nick and the team at North Seventeen Real Estate for helping us list our condo at the Westlake Villas in Sacramento. My wife and I have been renting our condo out for the past couple of years, but since early last year, we have decided to sell it so we can relocate to one of the historic districts in Orange County. So, I reached out to a couple of friends about a realtor that they trusted, and I was referred to Nick Garcia. At first, we thought we’d put the condo on the market immediately and be over with it. But to make the selling process easier and get the most bang for our buck. Nick advised us to let the tenants finish their lease period, so it could be a more straightforward process for us to sell. Nick was very realistic and knowledgeable about the state of the market and advised my wife and me on minor upgrades to make the property more appealing. Some of the upgrades he recommended were new paint, carpet, tile, baseboards, and other few minor cosmetic fixes to ensure our condo was in tip-top shape. He also suggested getting our property professionally staged. At first, my wife and I were hesitant about doing some of the work and getting the property ready. However, once I saw the beautiful staging and professional photos, my wife and I were blown away. What made matters even better, our home became the fastest-selling condo in the community, and we sold well above the list price! Nick knew the ideal buyer for our property and what would sell fast in this community. We looked at other condos nearby, and he ensured we would stand out from the rest. Overall, Nick was very responsive and patient and did a great job of answering our questions in detail. I’d rate my experience with Nick and the team at North Seventeen Real Estate a 10/10 (or, in this case, 5 stars).
