Client Reviews

"The house sold quickly for a great price."

Steve worked with my family (5 siblings) when we decided to sell our family home of 51 years. From the beginning he impressed us with his knowledge and experience, especially of the local market, pricing, marketing, and suggestions for what to do, or not do, to prepare the house for sale. His responsiveness and communication throughout the process was appreciated. The house sold quickly for a great price. Via Zoom Steve helped my family review offers and come to a decision. Needless to say, going through the escrow process with 5 owners was no easy feat, but Steve and his team guided us through that process with patience and expertise. Thank you to Steve and everyone at the Epstein Partners for everything!

"Couldn't be happier with Steve."

Steve Epstein was a huge help to us from beginning to end. He spent a good part of a day with us back in October when we weren't even sure that we were actually going to be moving to SB, and then helped us out when we flew in from Phoenix to find our house in just a short weekend. He helped us navigate what to look for, where to look and we ended up with the perfect house in a great location. Couldn't be happier with Steve and his amazing knowledge of the SB/Goleta area.

"Kendrick is your true partner in buying a home."

Being new to the area, we had a steep and quick learning curve to climb to understand the fast-paced Santa Barbara market. Kendrick helped educate us and gave honest, no-nonsense advice when we were considering properties and making offers. After only a few weeks' search, our offer was accepted ahead of even the seller having a broker caravan or open house. It was Kendrick's deep understanding of the area and market, along with his impeccable reputation and network that helped to make this happen for our family.

Kendrick's ability to rapidly understand our family's needs and wants also helped to streamline everything. Instead of combing through listings and hunting down every lead, it was usually Kendrick texting us links of potential properties and filling us in on the details of the home or sales history before we even had gotten to it! We can't say enough about working with Kendrick and his team. Everything is handled, every step of the way. Kendrick is your true partner in buying a home, and has your back throughout the process.


- Jessica H.

"Kendrick took care of every detail."

Kendrick helped me find a beautiful, gated community with pool and exercise amenities for my UCSB daughter. He kept in constant communication with me, but not obnoxiously throughout my daughter's university time. Kendrick helped me sell the property as my daughter's time came to a close. Kendrick took care of every detail, and since I live out of state, it was important to make everything seamless, which was my experience with him. I recommend Kendrick for all real estate needs because of his deep knowledge and amazing communication. 


- Cindy H.

"An effective Realtor."

Steve did an excellent job in helping us purchase our first home in Santa Barbara. His deep knowledge of the Santa Barbara real estate market combined with his long list of local contacts for supporting resources makes him an effective Realtor for anyone looking to buy or sell a home.


- Bruce S.

"Above-and-beyond."

To say that Kendrick goes above-and-beyond for his clients would be an understatement. What struck me the most was the dedication he had to our client-agent relationship. He treated our journey to homeownership with such genuine care and unmatched expertise. I remain blown away by his level of communication, graciousness with his time and knowledge, and his ability to calm and navigate our (sometimes rather intense) first-time-buyer nerves with such grace. Because of Kendrick, a long-time dream of ours has become a reality. Not only because of his profound talent, but because of his thoughtfulness, empathy, and patience. Not to mention, Kendrick is as hilarious as he is talented. Working with was an enjoyable experience, fueled by trust, open communication, and plenty of laughs along the way. While this feels cliche to say, it is ultimately the truth: Kendrick changed our lives and we cannot imagine going through this process without him. He is absolutely stellar. I cannot express our gratitude enough or capture the scope of Kendrick’s dedication to his clients in one review — but I can tell you that working with Kendrick was truly life-changing.

-Genevieve I.

"Jedd is on top of every last detail."

Great Communication. Would highly recommend Jedd. Delivers outstanding customer service! Jedd is on top of every last detail when it comes to negotiating and makes the Real Estate process a breeze!

-Eduardo M.

"One in a million!"

I’ll try to keep it short and to the point although we have SO MUCH to say regarding our home purchase but here goes... We were super fortunate to know Kendrick personally. After trying out a few other realtors in town it was easy to see how big of a gap separates Kendrick from all the others we went house shopping with. The service, communication, guidance and honesty were second to none. Kendrick was able to educate us throughout the entire purchase and made sure that what most consider a very stressful process, was actually pretty straight forward and simple. Kendrick introduced us to a great lender and made sure we were comfortable every step of the way. We are now the proud owners of a house in Santa Barbara, and it still feels like a dream to us (: Thank you for EVERYTHING Kendrick! You are truly one in a million!

"Steve is an incredible resource."

Steve is a fantastic agent with decades of direct Santa Barbara-market experience. My most recent experience with Steve was actually working with a colleague of his, who Steve referred me to, for the purpose of finding and leasing a corporate headquarters facility. Steve found me the perfect agent with specific expertise in the industrial/commercial space, and I was able to find the perfect location for my business. Steve is an incredible resource for anyone looking to buy or sell a property in Santa Barbara, and can also help with anything real estate related. He has been in town all his life, and his experience is reflected in his ability to effectively complete transactions.

"Jedd took the stress out of a stressful situation."

I can't say enough about Jedd. He goes above and beyond the call of duty. He quickly familiarized himself with my real estate needs and I'm now happily situated in a lovely condo in Goleta. Jedd took the stress out of a stressful situation with a smile on his face, working diligently on finding the right place, and was always available for my questions. Furthermore, he went the extra mile to ensure a smooth transition. Jedd is an expert in his field, showing utmost professionalism, knowledge, and care!

-Jackie L.

"A true professional."

Steve Epstein is a true professional. From beginning to end, there were no surprises. Thanks to his knowledge and expertise when he saw that something needed to be done, he pointed it out. Two days after an Open House, we received two offers and one became a sale. He kept me apprised of all situations as they arose. Steve and his team are true professionals.
- Diana R.

"Exceeded our expectations."

Kendrick is passionate about being a realtor and it shows. He delivered on all of the results that he promised us. He has a high level of business acumen and strategically used cutting edge resources. He produced an outcome that exceeded our expectations. We will use his services next time and recommend him to our friends.

"Phenomenal."

Jedd was phenomenal in helping us buy our first home. He and his team made the whole process very smooth and painless every step of the way.
- Alex B.

"You can't go wrong choosing to work with this great group!"

A very professional team that is really interested in the satisfaction of all parties involved. I would imagine that anybody would want to work with a group of people who are part of and understand our community and easily understand the needs of any buyer or seller. You can't go wrong choosing to work with this great group!
- Mark S.

"Do yourself a favor and use Steve and his team!"

Steve Epstein again did a fantastic job of putting together a very complete listing of a high end property and doing an, as promised, STRONG marketing of that listing. We got a great price but also received very responsive and sensitive representation and support from Steve. He promises a lot in front but, unlike many other agents, he delivers at least if not more than promised. I have used him in the past and will use him again. NOTE: I happen to be a licensed Realtor with over 40 years working with other agents. I understand that people rely upon referrals and I do not take the job of a referral lightly. Do yourself a favor and use Steve and his team!

- Don E.

"Highly professional, responsive, and positive."

Steve and his team have proven over the years to always be available to help before, during, and even after the sale. Highly recommend starting a relationship with The Epstein Partners for your real estate needs. They are highly professional, responsive, and positive. A pleasure to work with again. 

- P.H.

"The best!"

I want to thank Steve Epstein so much for making a difficult time flow quickly with a kind sense of humor, so appreciated! Steve knew what we needed in inspections and knew who to call to get it done. He guided us in pricing that proved very successful! The virtual staging presented our home in its 'as is' state very beautifully. Steve was very helpful in answering our questions. We would highly recommend him for all of your house selling needs. He is the best! 

- Suzie M.

"You simply cannot find a better person in the industry."

Kendrick is the best in the business! He is honest, hardworking, professional, and gets the job done. We have purchased two homes and sold one with his assistance, and he is our primary resource whenever we are curious about the market. If there is a home you want to buy or sell, he *will* make it happen. Kendrick will always answer the phone, reply to texts, or reply to emails promptly. I cannot thank him enough for his help through the home purchasing/selling process, which is daunting given that my wife and I work full time and have two little kids- our trust was not misplaced; you simply cannot find a better person in the industry.

- Richard R.

"A real estate professional that cares about his customer."

For first time home buyers, buying a house was pretty difficult and stressful (especially with the current market), until we connected with Jedd. He truly listened to all of our wants and needs for our future home, and he took the time to search for homes that he felt would fit us best. Once he found us a house that we loved, he was quick to lock it in for us in such a competitive market. There is a lot of paperwork involved in buying a house, and Jedd made the process smooth and painless. Jedd is a real estate professional that cares about his customer. We never felt like we were just another client to him but rather someone who had our best interest at heart. Thank you for all your amazing work, Jedd.

-Sydney T.

"Highly recommend."

You won't find better real estate agents in Santa Barbara. Highly recommend.

- Max T.

"I would recommend them to anyone in the market."

The Epstein Partners in Santa Barbara are a fine realtor group. Courteous, personable, informative and accommodating; helping each to find their own special fit. I would recommend them to anyone in the market for real estate in Santa Barbara city and all its surrounding areas.

- Billy J.

"Truly cares about his clients."

Kendrick is by far the BEST at what he does! He's incredibly professional and truly cares about his clients. He didn't just make us feel as if we were his top priority, he treated us that way as well. He was in constant communication with us and personally attended every single meeting, inspection and walkthrough. In a world where people have so much help in their businesses, he was truly hands on. Our home was on the market for a mere 12 hours before we had two bids. The experience was better than what we could have ever imagined and we're looking forward to working with Kendrick to purchase our next home.

- Natalie P.

"Excellent to work with from start to finish."

I can wholeheartedly recommend Kendrick Guehr for any prospective buyer in the Santa Barbara area! Kendrick was excellent to work with from start to finish. In a tough year with little personal interaction, he established a friendly rapport from the get-go by setting up an introductory meeting and keeping phone and text contact a constant throughout the process. I was hugely impressed by his response times, there somehow wasn't a single instance when he was unavailable. It was easy for me, a first-time home buyer, to find common ground with Kendrick, and his patient and friendly demeanor was a huge help to keeping stress to a manageable level. Kendrick is very knowledgeable about the market and the different neighborhoods of Santa Barbara, down to the property level, where he usually had some details ready to go on any given listing that appeared. Kendrick was also a great resource in selecting local mortgage and insurance brokers, should you be looking for advice there, as well. Once we found a property I wanted to pursue, he exhibited phenomenal negotiation skills. We were able to work together to customize offer packages that were creative and well tailored to the listing. He was able to successfully navigate me through an offer, and a couple counteroffers to secure entry into escrow. I am confident that both myself and the sellers are very happy with the end result. While in escrow, Kendrick kept himself up to date, checking in with me at critical times to see if I had any questions and usually to put my mind at ease. He coordinated flawlessly behind the scenes with the listing agent to set up inspections (he booked some of these for me himself, a huge help), walkthroughs, and requests for seller credits. The professionalism and helpful manner didn't stop there, Kendrick has continued to follow up with me after closing, helping to coordinate between myself and the previous owners, offering up good advice at every juncture. Thank you, Kendrick!

- Paul L.

"He was outstanding."

We had a great experience working with Steve Epstein during the sale of my parents’ home in Santa Barbara. Steve was very professional, knowledgeable, and most helpful throughout the entire process which was complicated by us living out of state. Steve was quite resourceful, so we learned to trust him to handle several items on our behalf. He was outstanding, always volunteering to help with whatever we might need. Also, we enjoyed Steve’s sense of humor during a stressful period for us as this was an estate sale of a special place for many family members. Steve is a consummate pro and a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend him to handle your real estate transactions.

- Dan W.

"Excellent experience all around."

It was a pleasure working with Steve and his team. Super responsive and detail oriented. Everything done with kindness and positivity. No question unanswered, taking calls wherever and whenever they came. Excellent experience all around.

"Extremely knowledgeable of the area and purchase process."

Kendrick helped me purchase a home when I moved to Santa Barbara. Purchasing a home from another state was a daunting task, but Kendrick made everything so easy and smooth. He worked with my tight schedule, was always available and very professional. He was also extremely knowledgeable of the area and purchase process and made me feel like his only client. He always kept in touch and sent me emails with new listings that came up and eventually found me a home that fit all my needs. Would definitely use his services again when the time comes! If you are looking for a Realtor in Santa Barbara, I'd highly recommend Kendrick.

- Allie B.

"One of the most knowledgeable and competent real estate agents in town."

Steve Epstein is one of the most knowledgeable and competent real estate agents in town. He is the only one I would trust selling or buying a house. I have known him for 25 years and he is very giving of his time and expertise, personally and for charity events. He is a good man and very smart.

- Laurie B.

"Impressed with his integrity."

Steve made what could have been an extremely stressful process in a very challenging market into a comfortable experience. We were impressed with his integrity and his long-term relationship view which kept us from feeling stressed or pressured throughout our lengthy search and complex closing process. His local knowledge and Rolodex of inspectors and experts helped us navigate a new market with ease.

"Professional, responsive, and top-notch."

Steve sold our house in 6 days and worked to set up all the presale inspections in order to ensure a seamless transition--even while on vacation in Hawaii. Steve was professional, responsive, and top-notch and made the sale of our home seem effortless. From the Brokers' Tour and Look Book to the website and videography, Steve's eye for detail was impeccable. Thank you, Steve, Aija, and Jedd, for all of your effort on our behalf!

"An outstanding real estate agent!"

Kendrick is an outstanding real estate agent! His devotion to his clients is truly remarkable and it really sets him apart from every other agent we've ever worked with. He was always available, incredibly patient and truly invested in helping us find a great house. He's incredibly smart, responsive and a great strategist, which is essential in Santa Barbara's competitive market.

"Amazing to work with."

We found Kendrick through a referral from someone I met in a coffee shop in Malibu. She said he was amazing to deal with and she was 100% correct. We live in Northern California and were looking for a weekend place in Santa Barbara. Kendrick asked the right questions and most importantly LISTENED to what we wanted and what we didn't want. Kendrick went above and beyond to help us find exactly what we were looking for. He is super responsive to any question, text or phone call and is always in a great mood. We found the perfect place. I highly recommend.

"He was readily available at any time."

Kendrick is hands down an amazing realtor! As a first-time home buyer, the whole process was brand new and somewhat daunting, but Kendrick could not have made it easier. He walked me through the whole process, was able to answer all of my questions, kept me updated of any changes, let me know what was needed by when and was an absolute advocate for me. He was readily available at any time and facilitated everything on my behalf. I truly cannot recommend him enough. He knows the business inside and out and is incredibly knowledgeable of the Santa Barbara market. If you're looking to buy in Santa Barbara, Kendrick is your guy!

- Brooke C.

"Will always bring a thoroughness and detail-oriented approach."

Cannot praise Kendrick enough!! Kendrick made ample time for us on weekends, weekdays, and was highly responsive through text messages, phone calls, and emails. He is very aware of the Santa Barbara market and is an insightful real estate agent. He takes his profession seriously and will always bring a thoroughness and detail-oriented approach to your sale or purchase. When it came time for us to buy our very first home, Kendrick was there every step of the way. He is exactly the type of real estate agent you want in your corner. I highly recommend him!

- Zenitra K.

"Remarkable and exceptionally competent."

Kendrick Guehr of The Epstein Partners in Santa Barbara helped me with the purchase of my home recently. He is an exemplary real estate agent who is knowledgeable, honest and thorough. Kendrick was a pleasure to work with throughout the bidding and closing process. He is remarkable and exceptionally competent in his attention to detail, and he greatly reduced the stress of home buying by offering to step up in countless ways. I recommend him without reservation.

- John M.

"I would highly recommend him."

Our home was on the market with another agent for five months without a single offer. Kendrick was able to sell it within a month. I felt he was very professional, kept me up to date constantly and answered all my questions. I would highly recommend him if you are planning on selling. We had already moved out of town, so all of our business was done on the phone, and I felt very confident in all of our transactions.

- Karen M.

"He did a great job."

Steve Epstein sold our house. He certainly had his work cut out for him as about 50 groups came through to see it. He did a great job showing the place! We had two offers, stayed with the first offer, and are now settled in our home in Santa Rosa. I would use him again!

"Will not give up until he can deliver results that satisfy his customers."

I just wanted to congratulate Kendrick on a job well done!!! We currently live in Seattle and have been working with him for almost 2 years finding the perfect house, location and the right price. Kendrick has been extremely professional, very knowledgeable about the market and a great guy to work with on a transaction. He really understands what people want and will not give up until he can deliver results that satisfy his customers. Furthermore, Kendrick has many other connections in the Santa Barbara community and is a great resource for additional services and needs that customers require during this process. I would recommend Kendrick and his firm very highly.

- Mark S.

"He has gone above and beyond."

I had never met or spoken to Kendrick, but called him out of the blue on a Sunday night, after spotting a house that I was interested in. He took my call immediately, and within a day and a half, I had a new house! His knowledge and professionalism were very impressive. Moreso, was his ability to help me to feel comfortable with my very quick decision. He has gone above and beyond in helping me with aspects of the purchase that a realtor does not ordinarily do. It has been a pleasure working with him, and I would highly recommend him.

- Lisi M.

"Great experience working with Steve!"

Great experience working with Steve! He knows the market and has been in this town for a long time!

- Lou T.

"Could not be happier!"

Could not be happier!! This is our 5th home that we have bought, and never before have we met a realtor that has worked so hard to make things happen. Kendrick was eager to please and worked hard to get us the deal that we wanted. He bent over backwards for us, and we will definitely use him again!!!

- Aimee R.

"Easy to work with and very available."

My husband and I recently bought our first home in Goleta with the help of realtor Kendrick Guehr at Epstein Partners. Kendrick was easy to work with and very available to answer all of the questions and concerns we had as first-time home buyers. He showed us a variety of places within our budget and didn't use any high-pressure sales tactics. We were able to find a home that fit our needs and get an accepted offer after only a few weeks of searching. He helped us navigate the daunting escrow process and worked collaboratively with our lender to get us to close smoothly. Prior to this experience, we had been warned about the stress and heartache that often accompanies home buying. We are happy to say that we were pleasantly surprised at the ease with which we were able to find a home and make it ours with the help of Kendrick and his team. We would highly recommend their services to anyone looking to purchase a home in the greater Santa Barbara area.

- Jacquie T.

"Wouldn't have been possible without Kendrick's expertise and diligence."

In January 2017 we approached Kendrick with a difficult task: Find a new or relatively new contemporary home in Santa Barbara with a nice view preferably of the ocean. Those sorts of homes in Santa Barbara are in very short supply, but Kendrick found one for us that met every one of our desires. Kendrick steered us through the difficult purchasing process and negotiated a good price for us. In June we moved into our dream home that wouldn't have been possible without Kendrick's expertise and diligence. We are very, very happy clients.

- Hege N.

"Everything went so smoothly."

I hired Steve Epstein to help me find a new place out here, and he did exactly that. Told him my budget and what I was looking for and literally the next day he had places ready for me and ready to check out. Found my new home in a week and everything went so smoothly I cannot believe it.

- Yolo S.

"Consummate professional."

Steve is one of the best agents I've ever dealt with, and I've dealt with a lot. Consummate professional. Highly recommend.

- Chris M.

"Kendrick got the job done."

I have sold and bought several homes with Kendrick; he is the best! On this most recent purchase he spent several hours working with the seller's agent to coordinate the sale. Kendrick got the job done. He always goes above and beyond to be successful in the transaction.

"We feel lucky to have found Kendrick."

We feel lucky to have found Kendrick through a listing we were considering putting an offer on (from out of state) and he was amazing to work with. He helped us find our dream vacation home sight unseen and has gone above and beyond during all of our interactions. Nordstrom level service, with a super friendly down to earth and 'nothing is too big or small' attitude. Highly recommend.

"Steve knew what we needed."

Steve knew what we needed in inspections and knew who to call to get it done. He guided us in pricing that proved very successful! The virtual staging presented our home in its 'as is' state very beautifully. Steve was very helpful in answering our questions. We would highly recommend him for all of your house selling needs. He is the best!

"A+ service."

Steve Epstein is a pro from start to end. He’s knowledgeable in every aspect of selling and marketing homes. I could not have asked for more and was extremely happy with his service. A+ service from beginning to end.

"You hit the jackpot if Steve is your Realtor!"

Steve Epstein was my agent in 1998 when I bought my house in SB and in 2013, when I sold my house 15 years later. He went above and beyond the call of duty as my Realtor. You hit the jackpot if Steve is your Realtor!!!

"I would highly recommend Steve."

I would highly recommend Steve whether you are buying or selling. His knowledge of the market and skills as a negotiator will ensure that the home and price will be the best to you could get. Steve made a very difficult escrow smooth and easy for us due to his years of experience coupled with his upbeat personality.

"I highly recommend Kendrick!"

Kendrick helped me purchase my first condo in Santa Barbara. I never thought it would be a possibility to purchase something here, but he worked hard and made it happen. He was always available and the new the market and real estate process very well. I highly recommend Kendrick!

"Very positive experience."

As a first-time buyer, Kendrick took the fear out of the whole process. He was helpful explaining things as we went in a process that was unfamiliar to me. He was friendly and respectful at every step and went to bat for me to get my offer in early. Very positive experience.

"Kendrick is remarkable."

Kendrick is remarkable for his responsiveness, he prides himself in it, and the truth is his responsiveness is just an indicator of the professionalism, expertise and deep respect for his clients that he brings to every step in the process. He knows the Santa Barbara market in intricate detail and his relationships built over his lifetime are a secret weapon that you can't list on a resume, but the value and benefit are incredible. He seems to take this all very personally - he wants people to find their best place in Santa Barbara for a very long time.

"You are in good hands."

I have bought and sold quite a few houses- Kendrick went way above and beyond to make sure the deal went smoothly. He seems to really have his hand on the pulse of the market and was able to work with my budget and understand my needs. You are in good hands with this guy.

"His knowledge of the market was spot on."

We are so happy we chose Kendrick to represent us with a home sale. We met with Kendrick several times before listing and took his advice on some small upgrades and paint. His knowledge of the market was spot on. He made himself available all hours of the day and had accurate answers to all of our questions. After limited showings for 4 days, we had 5 offers, all well over our asking price. We were in the process of moving out of state and were eventually working with two escrows. We leaned on Kendrick with countless questions and guidance, and always walked away totally confident with his direction. In a crazy real estate market, an agent of Kendrick’s caliber is an absolute must. It’s difficult to fully describe how well Kendrick helped us navigate through the process. We highly recommend his services.

"Truly amazing service!"

We recently purchased a home in Santa Barbara while living out of the area. Thanks to Kendrick's quick response time and availability to always answer questions the transaction was incredibly smooth. Kendrick is very dialed into the Santa Barbara market and is a great resource for all things home. He works very hard for his clients and is creative in his approach to securing a home. We can't thank you enough Kendrick for helping us every step of the way! Truly amazing service!

"Our only issue was that we couldn't take him with us to our new state!"

It was a no-brainer to call Kendrick Guehr when we made the decision to sell our house in Goleta (a house he helped us buy a few years earlier). His professionalism, thoroughness and market savvy were exactly what we needed to navigate our first sale experience in the midst of a global pandemic. With Kendrick’s guidance and coordination, we were able to sell our house in a single weekend with multiple offers. Kendrick’s amazing negotiation skills ensured that we were able to get fantastic deal, way over asking. Kendrick’s handling of the transaction details took the stress out of the sale for us and allowed us to focus on our move. Our only issue was that we couldn’t take him with us to our new state! I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for someone to go above and beyond for them in the Santa Barbara real estate market.

"A true pleasure to work with."

Working with Kendrick and the Epstein Partners overall was a great experience. Kendrick was exceptionally responsive to our specific owner requests and marketing enhancement suggestions. He was "candid" with us when necessary, but always addressed our concerns. Kendrick is very client oriented in his business approach -- a true pleasure to work with.

"He worked to make the process as smooth and seamless as possible."

I have had the pleasure of working with Kendrick both as a seller and then as a buyer. His level of knowledge and expertise in the area was exactly what I was looking for. He worked to make the process as smooth and seamless as possible for me. I will happily use Kendrick when the time arises again and do not hesitate to recommend him to anyone I hear in the buying and selling markets.

"Kendrick was wonderful."

Kendrick was wonderful. He was very professional but very down to earth. He practiced excellent social distancing measures and kept us as safe as possible. We never felt deprived of getting to visit homes to see the whole picture. I would recommend him highly.

"Best realtor in Santa Barbara!"

Kendrick worked very hard to find us a home at a very difficult price point in an extremely competitive marketplace! His knowledge of the area was crucial in helping us determine where to purchase a home and don't think any other agent could have supported us as well as Kendrick. Best realtor in Santa Barbara in my opinion! Thank you, Kendrick.

- Scott & Michele 

"Can't speak more highly of our experience with him!"

Kendrick has all of the qualities you could ask for in a real estate agent! He is communicative, patient, assertive, knowledgeable, well connected, incredibly professional, and prompt. Kendrick was receptive to our needs throughout the entire buying process - from long discussions well before we were ready to actually start looking for a home in a market as crazy as Santa Barbara’s, to exchanging online listings, visiting open houses, and finally closing on our dream home after an extended escrow in the middle of a global pandemic. We will definitely be using his services again in the future and can’t speak more highly of our experience with him!

"Very professional and thorough."

After five months with another agent (we had already moved out of town) without a single offer, Kendrick was able to find a buyer and get our house sold within a month. All of our interactions were very professional and thorough. Even though I could be emotional, he took care of all details, while we were 3,000 miles away. I would highly recommend this young man if you are going to sell your home.

"I couldn't have asked for more from a realtor."

Kendrick just helped me purchase a home and I couldn't have asked for more from a realtor; he was efficient, knowledgeable, honest, and responsive and made the whole process painless. I recommend him without reservation to anyone looking to buy a home in the Santa Barbara area.

"Friendly, courteous and prompt."

Actually, Kendrick wasn't even our agent -- he was the agent for the seller. Kendrick essentially did the work on both sides of the transaction. Providing information, getting us documents, answering questions. He did everything necessary to make sure the purchase moved along, and it would have been a complete pain without all of his help. Friendly, courteous and prompt as well. If I ever need an agent again in this area, he is the first person I will call.

"He took care of us beyond the call of duty."

I have used a number of realtors in my life. There is none better than Kendrick. He did not know my background but treated me and my wife with utmost respect. I happen to be one of Santa Barbara's favorite son's doctor. But it mattered not. Our property failed to move for months. Then Kendrick confidently predicted that he could. He sold it as if his own. He gave accurate and good advice in my interest. A rarity indeed. He went to check on the property in the middle of the major Santa Barbara storm. He took care of us beyond the call of duty. Above all he sold the house quickly to our satisfaction. He is a well-bred young man of class. He makes his parents and boss proud. We recommend meeting him and engaging his services without any reservations what-so-ever.

"Punctual, properly dressed, knowledgeable, and helpful."

Kendrick Guehr is a top-notch broker dedicated to high quality service. We have been in the real estate business for 60 years. Kendrick is one of the top brokers we have ever dealt with. Punctual, properly dressed, knowledgeable and helpful are just a few of his traits. I would recommend his services to anyone, and I would certainly use him again on future deals.

"An excellent choice to sell your home!"

Kendrick Guehr is an excellent choice to sell your home! He is very professional and had an excellent marketing plan. Every step of the way Kendrick was always going above and beyond to make sure all was in order!

"Great job, Kendrick!"

Kendrick and team listed and sold our home well within his pre-listing pitch with us. All of the expectations he set with us during the pre-listing phase were a reality. Great job, Kendrick!

"He is diligent and competent in all aspects of his business."

Kendrick Guehr is an exceptional real estate broker. He is likable, professional and always thorough. He is diligent and competent in all aspects of his business. Kendrick helped me with purchase of my new home and gave my savvy advice throughout the bidding and closing process. I recommend him without reservation.

-John P. M.

"An extraordinary real estate agent."

Kendrick Guehr is an extraordinary real estate agent. He helped my husband and me to find the Santa Barbara condo of our dreams. He answered all our questions, both on the phone and in person and he is incredibly knowledgeable about Santa Barbara, helping us find an excellent mortgage company, and he led us through every step of the purchase. He also negotiated a great deal, and when it looked like the deal might fall through, he kept our hopes up, and he found the way to make this purchase happen! We recommend him, and his company, Epstein Partners, without reservation. By the way, he responds promptly to phone or email questions, and this is rare, but we feel like we have found not only the best real estate agent, but a friend!

"One of the most experienced."

"Stan doesn’t follow standards, he sets the standard!"

Very early in the marketing of our house, it became apparent that Stan doesn’t follow standards, he sets the standard! He was never more than a phone call away.

"Fortunately, we switched to Stan Krome."

We were on the market for over 6 months with another company with little to show but lost time. Fortunately, we switched to Stan Krome.

"A scale of one to ten.... simply doesn’t do this man justice."

My house sold quickly in a down market, that could be praise enough. A scale of one to ten.... simply doesn’t do this man justice.”

"The price we wanted!"

I’m not sure there are adequate words to thank you enough for your support through this challenging for us process. I think you somehow understood how traumatic it was for a couple of 80+ year olds to be leaving their comfortable and spectacularly located home of many years to enable us to move to a retirement community. Just your appreciation of that was an important step.

Then came all the huge detail and preparation, the complication of multiple trust involvement, the need to dispose of furniture and personal items we were not going to move, the moving of what we wanted move and actually arranging the sale of some surplus items. Inspections of the property, and on and on - too much to list.

And you got us the price we wanted! Then you got a solid and contingent free sale commitment within a week of listing. The closing arrangements went totally smoothly and efficiently due to your thorough work throughout the process. Finally - We have met and really like the buyers and are happy that they appreciate the neighborhood they will be part of.

We see you as more than a totally competent professional - you became our friend too. Thank you.
- Alan S. & Mary Ann J.
