We'll Help You Buy Your Dream Home

The Home Buying Process

The Epstein Partners have been serving our valued clients since 1988, solidifying our local standing by consistently being in the top 1% of all Santa Barbara Real Estate agents. Our knowledge, dedication and vast resources have truly made us your Santa Barbara Realtors®. 

We understand that buying a home is a big deal! Whether you're buying your first home, your dream home, or your tenth investment property, it is a big investment. We have learned, over the last 35+ years, that we need to tailor our services to fit our valued clients’ needs as one size certainly does not fit all. We run our business based on a client-centric approach that focuses on creating a positive experience and ensures the client is at the center of our business. We specialize in Santa Barbara real estate and will educate you throughout the buying experience.

Finding the perfect property is just one way we can help you with your real estate purchase. As local real estate agents, we have ongoing access to experts in every related field from lending to inspecting and more.

Start Your Home Search

Search for homes wherever you are

When buying a home, the first steps include selecting your agent, obtaining a financial preapproval, and searching for homes. We can connect you with a lender to get your pre-approval for a loan, and then you're ready to start house hunting! You can search for your dream home from any device on our website. You can even compare walk scores, school ratings, and neighborhood demographics for different listings.

As your Santa Barbara real estate agents, we, too, will spend our time searching for homes that fit your criteria, negotiating and drafting contracts, advocating on your behalf and generally overseeing the process. Having an experienced, local agent like us by your side can be a relief, especially with so much money on the line. 

Start Searching

Get Listing Alerts

Be the first to know when a property hits the market

When you save a search on our site, any new homes matching your wish list criteria will be delivered straight to your inbox the moment they go up for sale.

If you’re looking for a very specific home, you have better odds of finding it when working with us. Because we work with a lot of buyers, we have up-to-date knowledge of homes for sale that are likely to fit your criteria. We can then make suggestions based on your must-have list, and keep you updated via listing alerts. We also have access to pocket listings and private listings in the Santa Barbara and North Santa Barbara County MLS', which privy us to real estate in Santa Barbara, Montecito, Carpinteria, Goleta, and the Santa Ynez Valley.

Save and See Listings

Favorite properties and tour homes

Click the icon when you find a house you love to save it in your favorites section and let us know you like it. Hit "See This Listing" or reach out to your agent directly to schedule an in-person showing. We're happy to walk you through the home and answer any questions, so you can make an informed decision.

Making An Offer And Closing

We're With You Till The End

When you find a home you love, your agent will help you submit an offer. We are skilled negotiators that know how to get you the best price and value possible.

Home purchase contracts can be 10 pages or more, and they can include multiple contingencies. As real estate agents, we have tools that make signing stacks of paperwork much less tedious. Once an offer has been accepted, we'll help you navigate through inspections, appraisals, and closing in a stress free way. 

Then it's time to get the keys, throw a housewarming party, and make lasting memories in your new home. We're so happy that you trusted us to help you through this exciting process.
