You haven't met an excellent realtor until you worked with Thomas. We met him by chance at an open house. He was really friendly and very easy to talk to. He told us facts about the home & neighborhood that we didn't know and was straight forward with his answers - no nonsense to his replies, and he addressed concerns before we even asked them. That's why a few days later, we decided to employ him as our realtor when he followed up on our visit experience. The home had some issues that we were worried about, but Tom methodically researched those details and assuaged our concerns. He is very knowledgeable about mountain homes, especially in Santa Cruz/ Los Gatos area. He is very experienced about the permits process for repairs & upgrades, and knows many repairmen & contractors (but they are pricey). That's just the icing on the cake, the best part is when you really need him, he completely follows through. There was an error on the title report for our home, and the 2 title companies involved were dragging their feet for over a week. When our contingency deadline was coming up, I complained to Tom and he got involved & got the title company to fix the error. It was not his error or responsibility, but he always solved what's needed! Same thing when a tree removal company forgot to come to the scheduled appt. We needed the infested tree removed for fumigation, and when the company didn't arrive as scheduled, he made sure they came ASAP and finish on time! So we bought our home thanks to Tom's assistance & hard work! He worked relentlessly and very thoroughly. You will be hard pressed to find someone more dedicated. Tom is very flexible in where & how he works. He will do his best to accommodate your schedule, quirks, and needs.
Tom Mendoza has been a godsend to our family during the sale of property that my parents inherited in the Los Gatos Mountains. He was efficient, diligent, and informative as he navigated this challenging sale. He worked hard to find the right buyer who was equipped to complete the sale and who would be truly satisfied with the outcome. Tom was honest, extremely respectful, always available, and just plain nice at every turn. This is my second time working with Compass, and they really do provide amazing agents who go above and beyond. I can’t recommend Tom or Compass enough, especially if you need an amazing agent who knows the Los Gatos Summit areas. We are deeply grateful for our experience with Thomas Mendoza.
Thomas goes above and beyond any realtor I have used in the past. He keys into the clients needs as well as wants. He will have your back. He helped getting contractors for work to be done on the house/property.
Thomas Mendoza, simply put, is the BEST realtor we've ever worked with. We needed to locate, bid, and close on a home in 60 days, and by golly he delivered. From start to finish, he had us in our new home in 45 days--in a very competitive market, I might add. He is attentive, detailed, and very knowledgeable about the Santa Cruz/San Lorenzo Valley areas. If you need skilled tradespeople, he has a comprehensive list of service providers. Thomas also has a terrific sense of humor, which really helps diffuse what can be a nerve-racking experience. Now that we’re settled in the lovely home he found for us, I only regret that we don’t get to spend time with him anymore!
Without Thomas there is no way I would own the beautiful dream house we now reside in. He busted his butt and helped make a crazy fast deal happen. I hope to never move again because wow, that’s hard, but if I do I will certainly call Thomas. He is very smart, kind and doesn’t have a lot of ego invested in the process and was willing to do what it (ethically) took to get us our deal. I find him an upstanding person whom I was able to rely upon while the whirlwind occurred for the deal. He may look young but he knows his stuff and has the energy to get the job done. I will never hesitate to recommend him to anyone I run across who is looking to either buy or sell a house in the Bay Area.
Thomas Mendoza has become an asset to us over the course of the last 6 months. He is smart, kind, and extremely knowledgeable of the real estate market and procedures. He managed to arrange a much better mortgage rate for us prior to closing escrow!
It was a pleasure to work with Thomas and the Mendoza Team. They kept us in the loop at every step of the process. We very much appreciated their attention to detail and enthusiasm.
Thomas was knowledgable about the area and the local market and made both completing the offer and the rest of the house purchase as simple as possible. He's even gone the extra mile after the sale to help me track down some information about the utilities! I cannot recommend Thomas enough!
Thomas was the perfect agent for first time home buyers like us. He is very knowledgeable, knows the area, and responds quickly to questions. He made the process very simple and explained everything in a way that we could understand. I highly recommend him .
