“Working with Steve and Tricia's team was a pleasure.”
Working with Tricia and the rest of her team was a pleasure. Everyone we interacted with demonstrated tremendous dedication and expertise with regard to the sale of our home. Steve specifically helped us negotiate appraisal contingency funds, which ended up leaving the deal with several thousand dollars more than we otherwise would have. If we ever need to buy or sell another house in the area, we would definitely choose to work with Tricia and Steve again!

“Without any hesitation or reservation, I would recommend Steve and Tricia.”
Over the years I have purchased and sold quite a few homes. To date, I have never had the pleasure of working with anyone in the real estate industry that comes close to being the consummate real estate professionals that Steve Hise and Tricia Garcia at Real Estate Toolbox are. From the very first meeting till the closing of escrow, through every phase of the sales process of my home, Tricia, Steve and their team excelled. Without any hesitation or reservation, I would recommend the Real Estate Toolbox Team.
