Luxury Real Estate

We had a great experience working with Steve Roose at Luxury Real Estate and his team! He was knowledgeable and walked us through the whole process. He was quick to respond to all of our many questions and we would highly recommend him for any real estate needs.

Steve Roose is, simply, a great broker. He represented us in a purchase of a house on Balboa Island. Within hours of our first conversation, he provided detailed market data that helped us to understand prices in the market, and how to bid for the property in which we were interested. During the negotiation, he gave us sound advice during the process of offers and counteroffers. He walked us through the contracting process (which was new for us, since we are out of state). He introduced us to the builder who will be the contractor for the new house we will build. He introduced us to people in the community. He was always on time for meetings or calls. And he always has a smile. We give Steve our highest recommendation!!

Steve Roose is the quintessential professional; fast, efficient, and always friendly. A magician at what he does, he makes his clients feel like family, doing what it takes to get the job done and quickly! What more could a client ask for? HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Much appreciated, THANKS, STEVE!

Steve is a force of nature. Always prompt with a response and smile, he delivers with any request. He helped us: Find/Buy a Teardown, Choose a Builder, Rent three properties while the house was being built, introduced us to numerous island people who are now are friends, let me borrow his truck and literally cooked us dinner multiple times. Steve is not just a realtor. He is our friend.

Literally the best home buying experience! Steve made our dream come true! Start to finish everything was perfect … Steve made it perfect ! You know the saying “happy wife, happy life ?” Well my husband is happy!!!

Steve is one of the most dedicated, caring, professional and honest agents that I have ever worked with. He helped me buy the home of my dreams. Steve is the person you want, because he cares more about your transaction than he does for his own benefit. I recommend him extremely highly.

Steve was a perfect pleasure to work with!! He got my cottage rented in less then one week with the perfect tenant!! I couldn’t recommend him more highly!! And he is is just such a nice guy, I will use him again for sure!!!

My husband and I found a house that we loved and were eager to make an offer on, as it had just come on the market and we knew it wouldn't last long. We contacted Greg and Steve, and they were incredibly responsive every step of the way. They were patient with us with all of our questions regarding the process. Their communication was truly excellent and they helped us land our first -- and hopefully forever -- home!

Amazing, trustworthy, and supportive!!! My husband and I had the absolute best experience with our first 1031 exchange being handled by Luxury Real Estate. The family property had to be sold and a 1031 needed to happen. Our go to is Steve and Greg at Luxury Real Estate! Steve Roose & Greg Earl are the ultimate pros. Every challenge that came up was handled with great aplomb, they are so quick to respond (even after hours) when we would reach out with questions (and we had MANY along the way!) When they listed the property for sale, within hours Of listing there were multiple offers for ab asking price. They quickly got to know our likes and dislikes for the property we were looking for and took us around to different places that fit our criteria. They practice safety measures during these Covid times, making the very anxious me, feel comfortable. They act with urgency, without being pushy, they are fun and an absolute joy to work with and be around. The whole process took a grand total of 2 months. Steve and Greg have such integrity. Truly wonderful people. We highly recommend working with them! We look forward to doing business with them in the future.

Steve was great throughout both the selling and buying process! He is professional, incredibly knowledgeable, informative, and patient when explaining each document we were signing. The previous agent we used was not as responsive and readily available as Steve was. Whenever we had a question or concern, he responded immediately. If there was something that popped up and needed to be taken care of right away, Steve was on top of it! We can't say enough about the level of service Steve provides - we highly recommend!

Steve found us an amazing home on Balboa Island to rent for a few months while our home was being remodeled. He listened to all our needs/wants and found us the perfect place at an unbeatable price. He did all the work for us and made the entire experience so easy and great. He is extremely caring, personable and knowledgable. He truly cares about his clients and works hard to find them exactly what they're looking for. Can't say enough great things about Steve! I highly recommend him for any real estate needs in the Orange County area!

I have known Steve now for over 15 years. When my wife and I went to buy and sell our last two houses he gave us excellent advice. I would have used him as our real estate agent in both transactions but he is an agent in CA and not in MN, etc. He really listens to what you are saying unlike the 2 agents we were forced to use in MN. He is also very knowledgeable and if he doesn't know the answer to a question he will find it. If you are lucky enough to be able to higher him, do so and you won't be disappointed. He will treat you like you are family.
