Testimonials
What clients and colleagues have to say about Tony.
Tony was beyond extraordinary in selling my home. From start to finish his expertise, knowledge, guidance, patience and professionalism was beyond what anyone could ask for in a realtor. Tony sold (had a solid contract on) my home in about 3 days ABOVE my asking price. I donÕt know what I ever would have done without him. Tony was a dream to work with and made the process stress-free! He communicated with me at every turn throughout the process and explained everything to me. I couldnÕt be more grateful for or thank him enough. 5-star class act the whole way! Thank you, thank you, thank you, Tony...you made my dreams possible! You are a true blessing Tony and awesome at what you do!

Tony is great to work with. So thorough...He will find you a house even if it is not on MLS. He even sold our house before he put it on the MLS. He is very persistent, patient, hard-working, and honest. I always felt that he had my best interests at heart even though he may have not made the sale. I highly recommend Tony for any of your real estate needs...

Tony is the best. We were looking for a house in Monarch Bay for the last 4 or 5 months and bid on several houses but my realtor could not close the deals. After hiring Tony, Tony found us a pocket listing in Monarch Bay (he called the listing realtor 4 or 5 times a day to get permission to show us the place). We bought our dream house and Tony was very helpful during every aspect of the purchase and dealing with the title company. I highly recommend Tony Maniaci.

Tony was on top of every detail every step of the way. He went above and beyond our expectations to get our house sold, and kept us informed of happenings on an almost daily basis. He truly cares deeply about his clients.

We just completed the process of buying our office building and had to take a moment to jump on here and say how amazing Tony is to work with. When looking for a realtor, you want to feel like you are in the right hands- and with Tony, you will be. Professionalism, quick response time, and amazing follow-through from beginning to end. When we buy a home in the next few years, we absolutely will be coming back to see Tony.

Happy California Buyer
Tony has been amazing. We have been looking for a new home for several months and Tony has been with us every step of the way. He has invested much time and effort in presenting homes that we are interested in. We recently submitted an offer on a home which had many problems. Tony coordinated and scheduled the various inspectors that we needed. He worked long hours on weekends and holidays to make sure that we were able to have the home inspected in the minimal amount of time we had available. We never expected that level of service. Even though it was a loss of business for him, he advised us not to purchase the house because of all the unresolved issues. We are continuing our new home search with him and would recommend him to any of our friends.
