Sylvia Lunsford

As a top producing Realtor with 33 years of experience in residential sales, and 11 of those years here on the central coast, I found myself in need of an expert who could facilitate short sales for my clients with upside down mortgages. Since I do not personally handle short sale transactions, it was important to me to be able to refer my clients to a Realtor with the expertise, experience and a proven track record of successful short sale transactions. I have known and worked with Sylvia Lunsford for over 10 years, and learned that in 2009 she received the Certified Distressed Property Expert designation with specialized training in short sales, and has successfully closed over 20 of these transactions throughout the county. I have referred all my clients in need of a short sale to Sylvia and will continue to do so because of her expertise, professionalism and complete confidentiality throughout the process.I highly recommend Sylvia Lunsford.

The service and personal attention we received from Sylvia Lunsford was exceptional and unexpected from a Realtor! As investors/builders/owners of SIX PUD homes, we turned to Sylvia to make the impossible, possible. We were most impressed with her professionalism and her ability to sell ALL SIX of our investment properties. We could not have asked for a better Realtor to guide us through the process.

I have worked with Sylvia for over 20 years on real estate transactions. She has represented me in all capacities, as a buyer, seller and investor. She has always been very professional, responsive and diligent. She knows her stuff and willmake the transaction as stress-free as possible!Highly, highly recommend!

I was looking for a real estate agent with expertise in investment property. I interviewed and hired Sylvia because of her experience as both a real estate agent and investment property owner. Sylvia located an ideal property in Grover Beach for me to fix and flip. She also helped manage and schedule my contractors as I live in southern California. She made the entire process stress free for me, which is really saying a lot.When the rehab was complete, I listed the property with Sylvia and she sold it in a few short weeks which resulted in significant profit!! The transaction went smoothly, and I was kept up to speed every step of the way. Sylvia is a very good communicator and excellent listener, she pays attention to detail, and truly wants the best outcome for her clients. I felt this way throughout BOTH transactions, buying and selling.I can't recommend her highly enough.

I am a Realtor in Phoenix, AZ and when my clients needed a referral to a Grover Beach, CA. area agent that could conduct a short sale for their property there, I referred them to Sylvia Lunsford. Her experience, association with a major brokerage, and her CDPE (Certified Distressed Property Expert) designation told me she could handle the job. In fact, Sylvia went beyond the CDPE education and actually earned an advance designation and training, something very few agents do. Again, I could tell she would do a great job for my clients, and she did just that.

I have been a resident of the Central Coast for 41 years and in sales for 30 of those years with 11 years as a top producing Real Estate agent. I have known and worked with Sylvia Lunsford for the past eight years. In 2009 when I realized that Sylvia Lunsford had earned the Certified Distressed Property Expert designation specializing in short sales, I immediately started referring business to her. I had complete confidence in her because of her reputation and professionalism in our industry.She has handled six short sale transactions for me in a five month period. My clients have had nothing but good things to say about Sylvias knowledge and professionalism. I will continue to refer her business in the future.

When I employed Ms. Lunsford at my latest real estate office start up (2009), she had shifted her real estate business to focus on bank owned and short sale transactions. With her financial background and thirst for knowledge she quickly became the distressed property guru in the region. Class act, diligent, intelligent, and a subtle confidence in her demeanor are words that come to mind when I think of her. It's been my pleasure knowing and working with Sylvia for over 10 years.I would encourage and highly recommend that if you're considering a business relationship in any capacity with Sylvia, don't hesitate, she's simply that good.

My wife and I had a need to sell, when we lost renters from a California property we owned.
