Testimonials

Thank God for Jennie and Chris! My mom’s dementia has worsened exponentially so she had to move in with us. Consequently we were forced to sell her home that was really falling into disrepair! The Irwins rolled up their sleeves and got to work! Everything from the estate sale, handyman work, cleaning, etc. was set up seamlessly! I am so thankful to them for making this virtually stress free! Their professionalism, dedication and hard work had the house sold in days!! And in this present housing market that is no easy task!! I can’t thank you enough Jennie and Chris!

by Dr Tim Chiro

Chris and Jennie are 5 star all the way. Super responsive to all our requests… including viewing homes through the rain, sleet, and snow (literally) ??. Was patient when I was picky…and it was appreciated. I recommend this team of dedicated professionals for your home search needs.

by Shannon Meritt

I had such an amazing experience with Chris and Jennie! Buying my first home was something I always wanted but it always seemed so unattainable. Chris and Jennie literally held my hand and baby stepped me through the entire process start to finish! Not only are they so very kind, they are hard working and very good at what they do. Their expertise, prompt communication and positivity are abundant and I feel so blessed to be able to call them my realtors!

by Patricia Carter

I had the privilege of having Chris and Jennie as my realtors selling a home and purchasing another. They are exceptional! They draw on each others strengths and give you exemplary service throughout the process! They’re knowledgeable in all aspects of the process and put you at ease from day one. They were always available for questions (ps.. I had a lot) and they always had the answer! Chris was great walking through potential new homes and i appreciated his expertise when he pointed out both pros and cons of each home! Jennie & Chris are very energetic and are go getters exactly what you want in a realtor, no stone is left unturned!! I highly recommend this amazing team!

by Tamara Irwin

Chris and Jennie made a stressful time in our lives (selling our home in San Leandro and purchasing a home in Tracy) a seamless transition. They took care of every detail going above and beyond of what is expected of a realtor. I highly recommend them to anyone I know thinking of buying or selling a home.

by Robin Keim

Jennie has helped me buy and sell a home. Her and her team have made it an extremely easy process for both even with my demanding work schedule she found a way to get it all handled! I look forward to hopefully working with her again.

by Carlos Murguia

by Matt Dietz

Chris and Jennie made the buying process smooth and stress-free. They listened to my needs and preferences, and showed me several properties that fit my criteria perfectly. Their expertise in the Modesto and surrounding areas was evident as they provided valuable insights about each neighborhood we visited. They were always available to answer questions and offer guidance and their outgoing, energetic personalities made the entire experience enjoyable.

Planning on moving to the valley and saw the posting with Chris Irwin’s name called him up and set up a meeting , brought my girlfriend and we talked and made request to what we were looking for Chris took us to some places available went the following week didn’t see anything but Chris was making an analysis and narrowing it down to what exactly we were looking for and he told me I’m getting to know what you want, and finally after some time we found a house,and Chris did tell me (I will find you a house) Yes it took a little time, yes there were serious discussions between me and my girlfriend as this was going to be our forever home and as always there were some concerns, but that’s part of the journey Chris did not deviate from any question ready to answer and help and I’m glad to say we found a house , it’s been a great experience with really no stress at all the rest of the team were helpful and made everything convenient and really went out of there way which is really hard to find these days as far as customer service is concerned thank you so much for helping us make a reality in this time of our lives , I would recommend Chris Irwin and his team to help anyone looking for a house or property , thanks again and for all the help And time and patience

by Gerald Saldana

Chris and Jennie Irwin are such a marvelous team. They stuck with us for about two years and through an interstate move. You would be blessed to have them as your real estate pros. At the end we also got our first California home at an amazing price and location.

by Christina Dolan

Chris and Jennie made the process of selling my parents' forever home in Fremont, CA, and buying a brand new home in Manteca, CA, an absolute breeze! They not only got us way more money on the sale of their home than we ever thought possible but also coordinated all repairs and moving from one house to the other. Their expertise in the real estate market is unparalleled. They guided us every step of the way, ensuring a smooth transition to their new home closer to all the family. Their dedication, professionalism, and attention to detail were evident from day one. If you're looking to buy or sell a home in Fremont or Manteca, I highly recommend Chris and Jennie. They are the best real estate agents we've ever worked with! Thank you, Chris and Jennie, for making this a seamless and enjoyable experience!

Chris Irwin is an awesome realtor! Chris helped me sell my starter home in Oakland and found my beautiful ponderosa sitting on an acre of land in Winton. Chris is a knowledgeable realtor with a great degree of dedication and professionalism.
