The only thing I can say about Thomas is that he is VERY VERY good at what he does. He sold our house for top dollar. And when things got a little complicated he was there for us. We got multiple offers a day after open house. I highly recommend him if you’re looking to sell. Thanks again Thomas

My husband and I interviewed close to 10 agents from different firms and we both ranked Tom as our number 1 choice. Before we met Tom, Redfin wasn't high on our list because we always felt Redfin is more of a high tech firm than a real estate broker. We made the right decision. Tom brought the experience, integrity, leadership and customer service to the table. He is the key to complete the remodeling and selling the house. We are particularly impressed by Tom's problem solving skills. We could always count on him.

Tom has been my agent now for 2 home purchases and 1 sale. Tom helped us buy our first home 5 years ago and we have stayed in touch throughout the years. When we were finally ready to upgrade, we went through a rollercoaster housing market, but Tom was able to guide us through a very smooth and efficient sale and purchase. My wife and I would have never gotten through these transactions without his expertise, calm demeanor, and positive attitude. Tom is always thinking about his clients first and he brings a genuine approach to buying/selling. Thank you Tom & Colisa!!!

Tom was amazing! My wife and I were so happy with Tom's help and support in finding and securing our dream home. At every step in the process, Tom provided solid advice and was always extremely responsive. We'd definitely recommend Tom to anyone seeking a home!!!

It has been a great pleasure working with Tom. As a first time buyer, I don't think I could have asked for a better agent. In a difficult market, we had to look at quite a few different places and make multiple offers before one of them was finally successful. But throughout that entire process, Tom stayed professional and friendly. He knows the market and the process very well, and offered his advise whenever I needed it - which was quite often. When issues with the property were found with inspection, Tom negotiated with the seller to make sure they get resolved despite their initial reluctance. Overall it was a really smooth process, and I can't thank Tom enough for it.

It’s my pleasure to write a review for Thomas Royds! Thomas handled the sale of our property so seamlessly for us. From the day we started working with him, he set about getting us exactly what we wanted from the sale, in the exact amount of time we wanted it. I’m so impressed with how available and professional he was during this whole process. Thomas was able to get us an offer 100K over list price, and did so in 4 days on the market. He’s a top tier agent and I highly recommend him. Grateful to have had such an amazing performer representing us, and keeping the process so simple and stress free. Thanks Thomas!

He made himself available for my many questions and had the right answers. He gained my confidence in his opinions and suggestions. I was not mislead nor left confused in anyway. My decisions were respected. I highly recommend Tom.

Tom was very accessible and answered all our questions. From the time we contacted him last summer until we finally decided to sell our home Tom was very helping us control our sale anxiety. I’m glad we had a chance to work with him and have suggested him to several friends and will continue to do so! Very appreciative of his professionalism and laid back style.

Tom was the third agent we had worked with and by far the most personable, attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly one that we've had the pleasure to work with. As first time homebuyers, Tom answered all our questions and provided amazing guidance and advice (especially in regards to the whole process and how to navigate the current market), while still allowing us the freedom to make all final decisions. We followed Tom's recommendations and despite steep competition, were able to get our offer accepted on our first choice home. Would highly recommend Tom as anyone's agent - he'll make the process as easy for you as possible, and will always look out for your best interests.

Tom was on top of his game throughout our home purchase process. As first time buyers, we often leaned on Tom's expertise and he came through. Pretty early on, it became clear he was capable at evaluating houses, honest with this guidance, while also listening to any feedback we had. We used his recommendations for lenders and inspection agents, and had a positive experience across the board. Searched, offered, completed escrow, moved into the house all in less than 1 month. Name someone else who can get that done! Would recommend to anyone.

As first time sellers we were nervous about the process but Thomas made us feel at ease at the first meeting. He answered the million questions we had. Throughout the process he guided us and communicated well which was important to us. His knowledge and experience of the real estate market blew us away. We were in the middle of welcoming a new baby while selling our home. Thomas handled the whole process smoothly so we could focus on our baby. We would highly recommend Thomas to anyone in a heartbeat.

We're very grateful for Tom! He was a pro, and we definitely felt like we were in good hands the entire time. His background in construction allowed us to filter out homes more efficiently and taught us what to look out for. He even tried to streamline scheduling tours for us. He was easy to get a hold of, answered all our questions, and he made sure we understood his reasoning when it came to offers. Tom was a great advocate when it came to negotiations. We also want to say thanks to Joe Royds, who was the most knowledgeable associate agent and took the time to answer all of our questions. Joe worked things out so that we could see homes when we were late. Thank you!

Tom was the BEST agent to work with. He came recommended through a friend, and he became our SAVING GRACE in the home-buying process of spring 2021 (read: the most insane market...of all time). He was always there to communicate with us, fast on any offers we wanted to make, and a hard driver to get us the best deals possible. He made this whole ordeal damn near enjoyable. If it weren't COVID times, we'd have given him the biggest hug for making our first time home buying process so incredible!

This was our second purchase with Tom and we're glad we went with him and Redfin again. Tom had our back at every step in a really frustrating real estate market, leveraging his personal network and putting our offer in with the best possible foot (to the point where it beat out an identically-priced offer on presentation/preparedness and his personal relationships). Whether it's navigating lenders, escrows, or seller's agent, Tom was accessible and helped keep us calm during a very stressful time. He also listened to what we were looking for and helped us find a really wonderful house. Thanks Tom!

Tom was, as always, a fabulous seller's agent. We've used Tom on 3 different purchase and sale transactions and he's always a great resource - knowledgeable, savvy about the market, and able to work under even less than optimal conditions to quickly turn things around, satisfy concerns, and keep a deal moving toward closure. In addition, his insider's knowledge of South Bay real estate is an invaluable resource. We highly recommend Tom to anyone looking to buy or sell in the area.

Thomas is an extremely experienced realtor, who is well-acquainted with the neighborhood. While I hope to stay in my new home (my dream house!) for years to come, if I had to sell/purchase any properties in this vicinity again, I would definitely work with Thomas again. He is professional through and through and is a joy to work with. His calm demeanor through the whole process lends assurance and alleviates the anxiety associated with a typically stressful transaction. Thomas also has a reliable network - whenever I needed a referral, Thomas readily available digital rolodex and would introduce me to his vast contacts: 1) movers; 2) financial bankers; 3) locksmith, all who have been reliable and professional as well.

Thom was an incredible advocate for us! There were ten offers for the house we bought. He helped us develop a strategy for the negotiations. Without his help, we would not have succeeded in buying our home. Thom also went out of his way to make sure we had a top notch inspection team. In fact, the inspector found mold in a bathroom. Again, Thom negotiated the repairs despite the seller’s initial refusal to cooperate. Thom even helped us find the right contractor for post purchase construction. He was incredible every step of the way! I can’t say enough about him. It was truly a privilege working with him!

Words cannot express my gratitude for Tom. Over the past 30 days, he has been my voice of reason, my confidant, friend, and mega negotiator. I sent Tom in to put an offer on a house where the seller represented himself in selling the house, so his own realtor, and was an attorney. There was a lot of negotiations to get done during the whole process, as well as managing the whole transaction. Each day, Tom would have to update everyone in the transaction, and listen to my husband and I stress. He was able to calm us down multiple times, and offer expert advice. In the end, Tom helped my husband and I obtain our forever home, and we can’t thank him enough.

Working with Tom has been exceptional. He has been rock in guiding us through the buying process, has fought for us every step of the way and we would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Tom to anyone looking at property in the South Bay or further afield. A true master of his craft.

Thomas is a consummate professional who knows the South Bay real estate market well. I just bought an amazing house in South Torrance with Thomas and found him to be helpful, dependable, and highly competent. Tom is an expert realtor who has a strong background in general contractor so that he always looked and inspected carefully the houses then told us his honest feedback from the buyer's point of view. He is also super responsive, very knowledgeable, friendly, and easy to work with. I will give Five Stars at communicating, following up and generally managing the processes so that execution occurred in a smooth and timely manner. I highly recommend that you call Thomas for all your real estate needs. Once you work with him, you won't want to work with anybody else. Thank you, Tom! You... Show More

Tom was a superb agent! As first-time home buyers, Tom immediately made us feel comfortable and helped guide us every step of the way. Any time we wanted to see a house he was available. Whenever we reached out to him, he responded promptly.
He provided great ideas, as far as home improvement, when we purchased our new home and and referred us to people who could help make our vision or our home a reality. After we finally purchased our home, we felt so comfortable with Tom. We felt like he was family. His knowledge and experience in the real estate market and the home buying process was excellent. We learned so much from him. We've already told our friends who are in the market about him.

Tom Royds was not just our Real Estate agent, but our trusted expert that helped us with every step of the buying process. He offered us help for things WAY above and beyond what would be expected, and really made us feel comfortable as first time homebuyers that we weren't making uneducated decisions since he took the time to explain each and every form and detail to us. He's even kept in touch after we closed escrow and I am getting the feeling that he'll be a friend for a long time to come. I can't recommend Tom highly enough - if you're hesitant about using Redfin, please trust me that this is the way to go since they have people like Tom making it happen. I wouldn't say buying our first home was easy, but I can certainly say it was much, much easier than everyone would have us... Show More

This is my 3rd transaction with Tom. He is by far the best agent I have ever worked with. He originally helped me to sell my mom's house when she passed away, then he was instrumental in helping me obtain my dream house thru a very long and nasty probate sale. He was there with me the whole 6 months it took for the home to close. Now he helped me sell my other home with one of the highest prices per square foot in the area! I can't thank him enough! Tom knows his stuff. Super friendly, he will have your back every step of the way no matter if you are the buyer or seller! Win, win!

Tom is the absolute best in his field! He is bright and knowledgeable with 30+ years experience in real estate and a lifetime of living in southern Cal. We were probably one of his most challenging clients: high stressed and nervous about our move to CA; constantly changing our minds on what we were looking for and where we should look; and extremely particular! We were ridiculously demanding of his time yet Tom was always patient, understanding and accommodating. He knows everyone in the business and besides finding us the perfect home, he helped us resolve so many other challenges, that made our move so much better. We highly recommend Tom and will use his services again in the future!

Thomas is extremely knowledgeable about real estate and home structures. He pointed out weaknesses, offered viable solutions, and was quick to steer us away from homes that would be less likely to appreciate over time. When we finally found a home that we loved and fit our needs, he worked with us late into the evening on a Sunday to build a very competitive offer and provided expert guidance throughout the entire negotiations process. We used his recommended vendors for lending and inspections and are very happy with the services that have been provided. He was (and is) extremely responsive and has worked tirelessly on our behalf to close the deal on our new home! Thank you, Thomas!

Tom's insight help us to find the right location for the budget we set and pointed us to properties that we would be interested to view and not waste time seeing others that he knew we wouldn't want to see. Tom provided a lot of good intel of the neighborhoods in the area we wanted to be in, knows the home buying process very well and helped us to quickly secure our new home.

Tom was a true professional and made us feel at ease. He provided valuable advice and suggestions throughout the whole process. He was able to negotiate and determine what was needed to increase our chances of getting our new home in a multiple offer situation. Because of his experience and suggestions, we were able to beat out the offers and close! Thanks again for everything Tom!
