Eric Macalma

Getting Eric as an agent was the best decision we made. My wife and I had been overwhelmed by the market and were really lost with the whole process. We decided to find an agent and were having bad luck with agents in the Sacramento region until Eric contacted me. He was just different. He was very encouraging to us. He pushed us to ask questions and never made us feel bad about asking too many things. He gave us recommendations that made our experience more pleasant. The whole time I was telling myself "this is too good to be true", but it was all true. Eric is such a nice and responsive person I would 10/10 recommend. He was personable and friendly. We felt like he cared about us. Made us feel special and like he was only working for us in spite of him working on multiple deals at the same time. If you are someone who is not sure about getting a real estate agent, I recommend you go with Eric. He feels like a friend who knows the business and not a salesperson who you hope to never see again.

As a realtor, I just completed an escrow with Eric where I was the listing agent and he was the buyer's agent. He was always extremely quick to respond to questions via text or email and kept in constant communication throughout escrow. I could tell that he truly cares about his clients. I look forward to the next time we cross paths!

We were first time home buyers and in this market that can be an absolute nightmare. Eric made it simple and easy for us. We were looking for a house in the Pocket area and moving from the Bay Area, so our schedule for viewings was very limited. Eric made it work with our schedule and was super responsive at any time of day. He explained how the offer process works and our offer was accepted within 15 minutes. On the day we got the keys for the property we had an issue with the locks but Eric called a locksmith and paid for the service as well. He even gave us a few housewarming presents. If you're looking for a down to earth real estate agent with no BS, look no further! I can't say enough good things about Eric.

Bought a fixer that Eric help guide me through the process of purchase with the various inspections, connecting with title and loan officers, as well as the timeline. If it had not been for Eric, I'd have left $7,500 on the table. Eric has gone above and beyond other agents that I've worked with in the past 20 years in that regardless of day and time he will respond promptly to deal help you accomplish what you need. Ohana!

Eric Macalma went above and beyond the call of duty. He always went out of his way to please us. When we finally found a home and made a successful bid, he was able to get us an extra $15,000 off! Eric always goes the extra mile and does his job in exemplary fashion. I would not hesitate to recommend Eric to anyone looking to buy a house in this crazy market.

My husband and I highly recommend Eric. He is very professional and remains calm during the entire process. He showed us around 30 houses and the was patient with us until we found the perfect house. There were many times where we felt hopeless and upset we didn't get certain houses and Eric was reassuring and kept our spirits up. He was very good with negotiating the final house we bid on. He gave us great advice on what we needed to do in order to get the house and all of advice worked out for us. Now we have a beautiful house and will use him again if we decide to sell/buy another house.

I couldn't have asked for someone more genuine and helpful to help me find my new home! Eric guided me every step of the way with integrity and honesty. Now I live in a beautiful home in a beautiful neighborhood and I wouldn't have been able to do it without him. Eric worked tirelessly to secure the homes I was interested in during a time when large real estate investment corporations were snatching up homes and property left and right. It's not easy competing with billion dollar companies, especially in the real estate market. Next time I'm in the market for a new home, Eric will be my go-to real estate professional.

Eric helped us find a perfect house for our idea. We wanted a place that was in good shape and with the potential of adding on a room. The deal went very smoothly, with a minimum of effort be me. Everything was taken care of promptly and with no hassles.He even got the sellers to give us a credit of $4,000 for a new roof! Needless to say we were very happy with the transaction. I can ,certainly, recommend Eric for any real estate deals.

My wife and I had the opportunity to work with Eric Macalma, Real Estate Professional. Eric was extremely professional but also very sincere in the way he communicated with us and we knew that he always had our best interest in mind during the home purchase process. For instance, Eric assisted us through the buying process of by helping us put in an offer for a home which was subsequently accepted.He was very thorough with his work, and very responsive. He was always professional and prompt to respond and he answered every question thoughtfully and thoroughly. Eric was accommodating to our schedules, flexible and patient. We would definitely work with Eric again and would highly recommend him for your current and/or future real estate needs.

Eric thank you so much for your expertise and professionalism. You helped us get into our new home and you went above and beyond! Keep up the excellent customer service.

Eric Macalma has integrity, commitment, and a great heart, which are qualities I never expected to find in a realtor. He was honest about the challenges of purchasing a short sale, and extremely helpful throughout the whole process. I always felt comfortable asking him questions and trusted that he would steer me right. And that he did. I highly recommend working with Eric, as I would not hesitate to work with him again if I decide to purchase another house.

Eric is a professional in all respects. He always got back to me for updates. Very much an on time person. Help us with every aspect of the home buy. We are very pleased.

After having difficulty locating an honest buyers agent, Eric was referred to me by a former supervisor. We were beyond pleased with the time and efforts taken by Eric to walk us through the buying process as well as the patience he displayed in showing us over 25 different floor plans over a long period of time. Kudos to Eric Macalma for his honesty, integrity and knowing how to get results for his clients!

Very professional. Flexible with my schedule. Knowledgable. Responsive to my questions. Answers questions in good detail. Great to work with. I would recommend to all my friends.

He is a professional and i will give him business in no time again . I recommend Eric highly. He is honest and a hard worker. Owner realtor lied and said he has now other offer suddenly. Eric and me figured that out and made offer and did not change offer price.

Eric was the best agent I could hope for in my home buying experience. My wife and I were very particular about what kind of home we wanted and had all but given up hope after searching through thousands of listings. We had finally found a home we wanted by another agent only for us to lose the home to a lower bid due to that agent giving bad information, scaremongering, and putting us in a terrible negotiating position. After calling the mortgage company to complain, they referred us to Eric, who was THE EXACT OPPOSITE IN EVERY WAY! Eric answered all our questions in the first call, and sent a email immediately upon first contact which highlighted all the benefits of working with him and the [redacted] company that we had applied for a loan with.We were all over the place with him, but he checked out all the places in the Greater Sacramento area that we requested and we ultimately found 5 places of which three we were willing to settle. After deliberation with my wife we ultimately decided to go with one of the options, and bid right at the offer rate, which was accepted.Ultimately due to people building my underwriting profile dropping the ball and making some huge mistakes in income calculation and DTI, my loan was denied by underwriting, having notified us of the issues a mere 10 days from closing, and the home went back on the market. Eric came right to the rescue and suggested a couple reputable loan brokers. We were pre-approved within 24 hours, and had underwriting conditionally approve within just one week! On top of all that, we decided to make a new offer on the home, which the sellers dropped the new list price on by a whopping $25k, and Eric helped us lock in that even lower rate. So it all worked out! From there it was smooth sailing, Eric even honored the 1% rebate on closing costs even though I no longer was working with [redacted] loan company, taken out of his own commission! He worked with our schedules to get the keys when we were free.
