Albert Kroes

Albert is the best! He truly understands the market here in Orange County; his advice was key for us in making a competitive and fair bid. He is so courteous, professional, and took care of every detail. He negotiated well and worked well with the sellers agent to ensure things went smoothly in escrow. He is a fantastic real estate agent!

We were first time homebuyer and by fate, we met Albert through SchoolsFirst. From the beginning, he has been a source of knowledge, expertise, and a confidant throughout the entire home buying process. Albert also listened to our concerns, respected our time, and was very patient with us. We would highly recommend Albert for all of your home buying needs!

I cannot put into words how thankful my husband and I were to have worked with Albert on helping us find and (close on) our first home in OC. Albert is so pleasant to work with. He is very knowledgeable and answered all the questions we had. He was on top of everything, not pushy, very responsive and really listened to what we wanted. On top of everything else, Albert guided us through the process of selecting, inspecting and purchasing our first home. Aside from his sharp professionalism, he brought personality, humor and great relationship with us that made us feel at ease, and not feel overwhelmed with the entire process (first time home buyer here)Highly recommend Albert! Thank you!!!

It was an extreme pleasure to work with Albert on our recent home purchase. He was always a gentleman and very kind to explain and guide us through this somewhat complicated process, especially when dealing with COVID-19. We had a few additional challenges with our purchase, as the seller was self represented and did not have a broker or realtor. So Albert had double duty to not only protect our interests as his clients, but to help the sellers navigate the transaction, and still negotiate firmly on our behalf. All came out perfectly and we were able to purchase our forever home! We definitely recommend working with Albert as he is extremely knowledgeable, a consummate professional, an excellent communicator, and has a good sense of humor!Thanks again, Albert, for everything!

As first time homebuyers, Albert was extremely thorough in helping us understand every step in the home buying process. He made the house hunting and escrow process stress-free by always quickly following up on our questions and being on time (or early) for every meeting. He is a very knowledgeable, patient and responsive realtor, and I would highly recommend Albert to any of my family and friends who are in search of a new home.

You deserve the BEST! If you are looking to work with an amazing, thoughtful, kind agent that will get you your dream house even when 3 other offers are on the table, Albert is your guy! He gave us an excellent home buying experience! He is so knowledgeable not only about the area as far as neighborhoods/schools etc but also the various rules and regulations. Albert was very responsive, and promptly returned our calls, (if he didn't answer right away). He was great with our kids and we definitely felt like he and his team were looking out for our best interest. From contacting him to move-in date was barely 2 months. Thank you so so very much Albert and your team for the outstanding support in getting us our new home!

Albert Kroes is simply the best! During the entire process Albert was more like a family member who knows about complexity of real estate dealings and is offering his advice. Albert is great communicator and he always made sure that all is clear. He was very fast and very responsive. There was never a bad time to call even late night. He is extremely effective negotiator who really cares about his customers and is very generous with time. Our case was extremely challenging because of unusual difficulties with lender and sellers. During the negotiations he made a few arrangements that protected us and saved us from disaster. We did not understood at the time the importance of additional amendments but at the end we were so pleased it was done preemptively. He would not miss anything to protect his clients. Everything what he would tell us, turned out to be true. We completely trusted him and we would not make a single decision without asking him first about his opinion. If it would not be for Alberts innate intelligence, charm, his enormous knowledge and his magic, we would never succeed if this purchase. Albert Kroes is outstanding realtor. My wife and I recommend Albert with the highest enthusiasm.

We are so happy that we were matched with Albert as our realtor. He was extremely responsive, professional, and knowledgable. He took us to tour many properties and pointed out things that we might not have noticed (the good and the bad) so we could make an informed decision. When Albert was our realtor, he told us he limits the number of clients he takes on at one time so he can give them his full attention. This was definitely our experience. He responded to emails, texts and calls very quickly and had time to show us houses on the weekends and weekdays. Thanks to his expertise and go-getter style we had our first offer accepted (about 1.5 weeks after we started looking). After trying to purchase a home 3 years prior with another agent and having 15+ offer rejected, I truly believe we would not be in our amazing home today without Albert's help!

We were very fortunate to have met Albert. Albert provided us with exceptional customer service. He is very professional and displays integrity. We will always speak very highly of Albert and refer him to others in a heartbeat.

Albert is the best. He made sure we always knew what was going on and he always answered all of our questions. Albert is very trustworthy and truly wants the best for his clients. Would highly recommend him!

We used Albert to purchase and then later sell our townhome in Ladera Ranch. Being able to experience Albert as both a seller and a buyer gives us unique insight into his process. He is extremely detailed, very knowledgeable, and one of the most friendly real estate agents out there. He is also a very straight shooter and will fight for you as both a seller and a buyer, to get the house or price you deserve! We can't say enough good things about Albert. If we ever need an agent in southern California again, Albert is the first and only call I'll make

As first time home buyers, my wife and I feel extremely fortunate to have worked with Albert to find our new home. He promptly answered our many questions throughout the home search and escrow process and counseled us through moments of panic and confusion. I really appreciate that he would point out negative aspects of properties that we would have missed rather than pushing us to making a purchase. I hope that we do not have to go through the home buying process again anytime soon, but Albert will definitely be the first agent we call when the time comes.

Albert was a true joy to work with. Albert was so attentive to my special medical circumstances and made an otherwise stressful experience, a very positive one. Albert was VERY thorough and attentive and always kept us in the loop of everything that was happening and what the next steps were. He was very encouraging and hopeful that we would find "our house," and WE DID!

Albert Kroes was the perfect realtor for us! We could not have asked for anyone better. Albert is the epitome of professionalism. He is so knowledgeable and we learned so much about the market and the entire home buying process from him.Albert is so patient and understanding; he kept us positive when there were setbacks and encouraged us to not give up.We ended up finding the right house for us and never could have done that without Albert's guidance.Albert has our highest recommendation; you will not find a better realtor out there. He is the best!

Albert was absolutely the best! He helped us purchase our home a few years ago and the process was so fun and easy - even with a vary last minute and stressful offer that he put in on our behalf to ultimately buy our dream home. He was extremely responsive, kind, respectful, patient and thoughtful. I would absolutely recommend him with 5 stars all the way around, and I hope to work with him again in the future.
