"It was a pleasure working with Pia De Castro and her team. She truly is working hard to meet her client’s best interest. We started our house-hunting journey with her in July 2019. As a first time homebuyer, we were excited and apprehensive at the same time. She provided us her personal and professional insights about the current market, what to expect and even laid out strategic plans on making offers. We appreciate her for making herself available at all times— from multiple calls everday to weekend open houses to late evening house showing. She kept our spirits high during the times when our offers were not accepted and continued working hard to find the perfect home for us. After 2 months of hard-work, we finally got in to contract. There has been a lot of hiccups before our offer got accepted, but Pia made sure that she got everything covered. She put so much effort into the negotiation process and was able to get the best deal for us. It would’ve been more stressful had it not been to her help and guidance. Her job as a realtor did not end after she gave us the key. She was really helpful even after we moved in. We are very glad to have Pia as our realtor and we are grateful for all the help she gave us during the entire process. " Read More

Pia has helped my family with the sale of two homes. After the sale of our personal home, she was the first person I called when it came time to sell my parents' home. My parents are both in their 90s and she did a great job accommodating their needs. In addition to being very personable, Pia is organized, knowledgeable, and communicative throughout the entire selling process. She sold both homes for over listing price from start to close within 30 days! I highly recommend her. Read More

"Pia is very professional and helped us wade through the issues and challenges of selling a nicely maintained 50 year old house in the California housing market. This was my parent house and I live in Washington State. She provided excellent advice and the resources we needed to prepare the house for sale and after the sale. She is an excellent communicator and worked quickly and effectively to get the house sold—within weeks. The house was sold at way over the asking price and both the buyers and sellers were happy with the outcome. I would recommend her to anyone who needs help with selling a house." Read More

"Growing up in the Philippines, where being a home owner is almost impossible for most people, I never ever dreamed of being one. Even when I came here to the USA 15 years ago, owning my own house was something I never imagined I could do. Fast forward to October 27, 2019, today I can proudly say that I own an amazing house where my Family and I can put down roots and grow. Pia De Castro has been our friend for a few years now and even though we don’t get to see each other a lot, we are Facebook friends so we get updates on each other’s lives. Like clockwork, every couple of weeks I would see a post about Pia getting an award for being One of Intero’s top realtors. So I told my husband maybe we should talk to her and ask questions so we can buy a house a couple of years from now, we just wanted to start the process so In 2 years we would be ready. So my husband called Pia and the next day we had a meeting with her. In this life there are very few times when you come out of a meeting and think to yourself, our lives are about to change. That’s what happened in that 30 minute meeting we had. Pia answered all our questions however many we had, it didn’t matter if we asked the same questions over and over again, she was a true professional. So we asked how the process works, she said bring in some documents and we will do the rest. She told us that if we were ready and we really wanted to, we can buy a house NOW. Again going into this meeting we just wanted to get some information, after the meeting we had a chance of buying a house NOW. So my husband and I went home and had a loooooong conversation about the pros/cons of buying a house now and we decided that we were ready. We called her the next day and she told us to start looking for houses. Life is funny sometimes, the 1st house we ever looked at was the house that we ended up buying. We looked at about 15 houses but the 1st one really was our favorite. So we told Pia that this house is the right one for us. The house was above our budget so we were a little worried but Pia said she would do her “magic” and help us get our house. After a couple of days of negotiations, Pia said that the owner had agreed to sell us the house. From our 1st meeting with Pia to when we got our house keys, it took about 30 days. In 1 month we went from thinking about buying a house to being the owner of a gorgeous 6 bedroom/3 Bathroom house in Lathrop, CA. This would have never been possible without the help of Pia de Castro and her team. We will be forever grateful, if we ever decide to have another baby and it’s a girl, we will definitely name her Pia, haha. Pia De Castro is a true professional, she knows all the tricks in the book but most of all her kindness and understanding is what really helps you. Her great sense of humor and personality also helps a lot too. So if you are thinking about buying a house, give Pia de Castro a call, that call just might change your life. Thanks Pia De Castro!"
