I worked with Ray Barreto in 2020 and 2021. We wanted to buy a house in 2020 but being first time buyers we were lost in the realty world. Finding Ray was very amazing for several reasons; he is very knowledgeable, explains everything thoroughly and without jargon, very professional, truly cares about what his clients desire and not about the money, he follows whatever criteria you ask for a house, if you want it he gives you the honest truth, and is the best when it comes to negotiating in a seller's market. In 2020, we were not ready to buy yet and Ray never complained and understood so in 2021 we decided to use him again since we were ready. In a seller's market things get rather competitive so you need a realtor that is on the ball and does not drop it, fast moving, and always searching for possibilities. The biggest bonus is Ray works on knowing his clients to the point that you feel he is reading your thoughts. Ray is patient, honest, funny, and great. If you are lost in this realty world and have already gone through bad experiences with bad realtors you need to hire Ray he de-stresses the realty world. So, don't wait and hire him! At least meet with him for an interview and you will see what I said above is true. Ray you are AWESOME!!

A huge thank you to Ray for help in purchasing my very first home! He was so patient and understanding throughout the whole process. I was in no way an easy client, I had no idea what I wanted or where to even begin. He walked me through it all and took the time to explain each and every step. He fought for me and got me the best deal on my home and I’ll forever be grateful! I couldn’t have found a better realtor for my first home.
Honestly, I recommend Ray to anyone! If you need someone patient who actually cares about you, then 100000% I recommend Ray!

It was my first time buying a house with my fiancée and we were clueless with the whole process. Luckily someone recommended Ray. I spoke with Ray about buying a house and he guided is from the very beginning all the way to the end. We never even had to worry about a thing. Didn’t matter what day or time it was he was always available and would anwser any questions we had. Ray would also get you any showing you wanted almost instantly. After a few weeks of searching we finally found the house we loved, thanks to Ray. He really made it possible. It was a very aggressive market and he was able to negotiate a deal. Ray really cares that you are happy and satisfied in the end of the day. If you are looking to buy or sell I highly highly recommend Ray. He would get the job done! If I ever need to buy/sell I know I will contact Ray again.
