We purchased our first home with Steve six years ago, and he was very professional. When it came around time to selling our property, Steve was the first person that came to mind. Once again, Steve moved our transaction smoothly with great adeptness. He knows the market well, and although mostly relaxed, knows how and when to push hard and acts very quickly to get the desired results. We appreciate Steve and recommend him to anyone with confidence.

Steve is the absolute best!! We were super unfamiliar with the Orange County area but knew this was the area we wanted to be in. From our first consultation with Steve, to the tours, to the buying process and close of escrow, Steve have been phenomenal. He is extremely knowledgeable of all of the neighborhoods in Orange County and was able to showcase the different areas with our very tight timeline. Steve truly cares about his clients and listens to all of the feedback to help steer us in the right direction. We're so lucky and thankful to have had Steve as our agent during this buying process. We found the home of our dreams and have made a friend along the way!

Steve is the most incredible agent to have as a first-time homebuyer. He always made himself available and was amazingly prompt in all his responses. Even though I bombarded him with a ton of questions throughout the process, Steve was very keen on giving me detailed answers to ensure there was no confusion. I went into this with no knowledge or experience, and within the first hour of meeting Steve over video chat, I walked away with a breadth of knowledge in the market and the homebuying process. I never once felt pressured to do anything I wasn't comfortable with, and the entire experience went as smooth as butter. I would not hesitate to work with Steve again in the future and I'd happily recommend him to anyone.

I have had the opportunity, great fortune and privilege of having Steve represent my family as our Agent, not once, but twice. He is extremely knowledgeable and has a fantastic follow-up. His regular communication cadence kept us informed of every step along the process and he made the whole experience easy and painless. When I think of Steve as a Real Estate Agent the song lyrics from Tina Turner's classic "The Best" immediately comes to mind: "You're simply the best, better than all the rest. Better than anyone, anyone I ever met." During our first interaction in 2014 when Steve helped us purchase our most recent home, he not only became a trusted real estate advisor to us, but also a friend.

Steve went above and beyond as our agent. He was always there to answer any of our questions and even helped us understand thecost for updates if we wanted to go with a certain home. He was super flexible with our schedule and made sure we were in the look throughout the home buying process.

Steve was very professional, knowledgeable and a good negotiator. I and my husband met Steve very first in the Redfin Home Buying Class. Since we were first time home buyer, his in-depth knowledge about the home buying process helped us prepare and gave us lots of confidence. His knowledge of the Orange County real estate market was on the point. His friendly and calm nature was very helpful during stressful escrow time. He was good at communication and teamwork. He worked extra to prepare our offer and because of that our offer beat other 9 offers. He has excellent transaction coordinator Brandon, who helped to be on time for each escrow deadlines and close escrow on time. Apart from that, we would like to give lots of credit to Redfin's technology and business model as well. All the... Show More

I can't imagine that I could have gotten through this process without Steve. He knows everything about the OC housing market -- where it's been and what its trajectory is like. He takes the time to explain to you the minutia of the homebuying process that often slips through the cracks in such a hectic, chaotic market. He listens but also makes sure that you feel heard. He gives thoughtful responses and never makes you feel like you're wasting his time. He is realistic, and is not afraid to tell you the ugly truth. He is well connected, and makes every single one of his resources available to his customers for complete transparency. But if I have to pinpoint the most striking thing about Steve, it is that he is reliable. When he says he's going to do something, he never falls through... Show More

Steve is absolutely the best in the business. He’s knowledgeable in areas that you wouldn’t expect for a real estate agent. Even when it’s not his area to advise, he does so freely because he cares about you as a person, not just as another transaction. He held our hands throughout the entire home buying process and took the time to answer all our questions, regardless of day or time. We are lucky to have found him and will refer him to all our family and friends without hesitation! Our own family will have a better life in our beautiful new home because of Steve.

I feel like we met Steve by fate. My husband and I had been looking for homes for a few months with another realtor who made us feel very pressured and really discouraged with the buying experience. We found a listing on Redfin that we wanted to see, so I decided to set up a showing with Redfin. Steve called me and I gave him a little bit of background and we met that day at the listing. He did not pressure us at all and provided us with background and research on the property. We were waiting for the sale of our condo and weren't quite yet ready to purchase and he in no way made us feel less important because of this. Each listing we sent Steve he provided us with valuable information in weather it was worth it or not. The stars aligned and the condo sold and we were finally ready to... Show More

We had been searching for our first home for over two years and worked with multiple real estate agents along the way. We were consistently disappointed by them because we were finding houses on Redfin ourselves before the realtors would send them our way. Working directly with Redfin was the greatest experience because Steve and his team were knowledgeable and truly had our best interest at heart. I plan to exclusvively use Redfin in my future home sales and purchases.

We were on the market for a new place almost for a year. We were working with several agents but we were not satisfied with either performance or honesty (pushing us to give way bigger offers then properties ended up selling as they were listing agents as well etc). After we almost gave up one of my co-worker told me about RedFin. We started to look some property and found that RedFin way is more appropriate for us. We were the once who look up what we need, Steve on his end was able to set up appointments for all places within hours of our interest. No pressure, just recommendation on each participial place we saw. We lose some offers but we ended up to find a place that works well in price category and location wise. I will highly recommend Steve and his team to anybody who is looking... Show More

When it came to drafting the offer letter Steve made sure that certain terms to our benefit were added in our offer. Further, he helped us prioritize the corrective actions so that the owner would consider our requests. I'd work with Steve again. :)

At first, we contacted him just asking for a referral of loan officer and even though our request would not make him an profit he was still kind enough to provide us with a comprehensive list. In the end we decided not to buy at that particular time. We started touring again but this time with Redfin. We were very picky, and we did not make up our decision quickly but he was still patient with us. Instead he asked us what kind of property we are looking for, so that he can keep an eye out for the best suited properties. Finally we found a place, and let Steve know. He immediately contacted the seller's agent. He helped us to make an offer on... Show More

Man, where do I begin. First time buyer, spent a lot of time scouring the internet beforehand on what to expect, and how to do things properly. I heard Redfin was a team of agents who were not as focused or hard working as traditional agents because of their volume and "inexperience." I can't tell you how far this was from the truth (at least with Steve). Even after a couple warnings from other agents (I chalked it up to competitive remarks) I went with Redfin because I needed the refund to help me afford a home and nobody else I knew did that. I researched my lender and thought I found someone great, and figured if Redfin is a bad experience at least he'd help carry some of the burden and help me through, it was exactly the opposite and I'm really lucky I landed with a guy like Mr....

Steve was absolutely awesome to work with. We were relocating from a different part of the state, knew nothing about the area, and had a fairly aggressive timeline for buying. With Steve's (and Redfin's) help, we were able to get into a great home within that time frame. Steve's extensive knowledge of south OC and enthusiasm for real estate was obvious from our first conversation where we talked about what we were looking for and what our priorities were, and he was able to guide our search to areas that most closely fit our needs. As we toured houses and explored neighborhoods, he was always eager to find out our thoughts about each place so that he could use that information to help further refine his suggestions. With his help we found a great house in a perfect neighborhood for us,... Show More

Steve has an easy going personality. It took us almost a year before we finally purchased a house. During that period of time, he never showed negative or undeserved attitude toward our rejections on the houses we toured. He always answers your questions with a detail explanation. In January, we purchased a detached condo that needed some repair. Steve was able to negotiate with the buyer agent and got us $2800 repair credit toward our escrow. His provides the best service among three other realtors who we had hired in the past. I highly recommend Steve to all potential home buyers in Foothill Ranch/ Lake Forest areas.

Steve was great to work with! During our house hunting stages he was very helpful when showing us different homes. He quickly picked up on what we were looking for in a house and was able to point out good and bad things in the homes we looked at. Once we found the right house, he was very helpful during all of the negotiations and was very prompt with getting everything completed. We had some confusion with our banker throughout the escrow process and Steve was so helpful with getting everything cleared up. He explained things to us in a way that we would understand and made sure that our banker was on the same page as well. Even after we closed, Steve has been great with helpful us with questions about the home warranty and is still willing to help us with any questions. We would... Show More

This is my second purchase with Redfin. Steve gave me valuable guidelines on my decision on what to purchase and he was always available to answer all my inquiries. It was a great experience this second-time around. I highly recommend having him as an agent! Thanks, Steve!

I really liked to work with Steve, he showed always disposition and we felt that every request or query we had was answered in a timely manner,
Steve was very helpful providing advice and recommendations in key moments of the transaction, especially when we were negotiating the price of the home or asking for repairs after the home inspection,
I would definably recommend anybody to consider Redfin System with the refound feature, we got almost $4k dollar back to us and you should have Steve Polito if you can as your main contact with the Redfin Team.

Steve was an absolute treasure to us! INDISPENSIBLE! He made our entire experience, from first contact to the closing of escrow, enjoyable! He was prompt, professional, friendly, and above all, he truly LISTENED to us. He returned calls promptly and no question was ever left unanswered...even if we didn't like the answer! I cannot recommend him enough. Steve was not just our real estate agent, because by the end of this process, has become our friend! We were so blessed to work with him!!!

Steve was absolutely phenomenal! His understanding of the area helped us to find the right neighborhood for our family. He was extremely patient with us as we were looking for the impossible home, (you know, everything on your list and still under budget). I figured we would have to make compromises on our small budget, but with his patience and area knowledge, we found the impossible! His excellent communication skills helped calm the seller when we hit a couple of bumps during escrow. The deal could have fallen through, but Steve kept everything rolling to make sure we got the home of our dreams.

Steve went out of his way to help make sure the transaction closed. My purchase was a short sale which took longer because of the bank interaction. Steve was very helpful during the process.

Steve Polito is the best real estate agent that I have ever met. He was very responsible and always had good attitude. He replied the email very quick, always very patient to answer every question we asked and gave us good suggestions. We're very glad got this beautiful house and very enjoy the process of working with him! We definitely will recommend Steve's services to our friends!

A customized approach for everything I wanted. I'm laid back but pretty particular. Steve knew when to pull back and when to give me that extra detail I need. Never thought a realtor could be a real person who truly cares. Steve should quit Redfin and become a professional friend. Someone who can be honest but also make you feel good about being you.
Timbra deserves a high amount of honor and respect. Each time I talked to her or emailed it was a breath of happiness and joy. So down to earth and 100% helpful. It doesn't get any better that. I just want to call her once a week to say hello. It'd be great to start my week off the right way.

Steve was the perfect agent for my wife and I. He was very easy to talk to and always willing to show us any property we desired within a days notice.
When we found the right home Steve guided us through the whole process and was proactive in reaching out to the seller's agent when necessary.
I am very impressed with the level of service Steve provided and would contact him for our next home purchase.
