"We have bought and sold multiple properties in the last few decades. Never before have we encountered a realtor with John Sener’s skill, care and enthusiasm. The man has so much energy for doing the right thing, it is downright unbelievable, mythical even. We sold our last house with John as the realtor. He was determined to present the cleanest and most solid property possible. We took his lead and did every repair and every inspection he suggested. Then we were able to ask the maximum imaginable selling price – and we more or less got it! It actually seems impossible. But it happened. And we could walk away proud of honestly offering a house without the deception we’ve so often encountered in the houses we ourselves have bought. We cannot recommend John Sener highly enough. Any seller or buyer will be truly blessed to have his support."

"Trying to find the perfect realtor? Look for experience, knowledge, honesty…representation of the client’s interests…John Sener checks all the boxes. His knowledge of the area is derived from living in Santa Barbara all his life which translates to an unmatched grasp of the market past, present and future. With his years of experience, John has developed a large contact pool of realtors and builders which opens the door to areas beyond the MLS. This was invaluable for me as I was a remote buyer and relied heavily on his input. Always felt his guidance was based on honest input not just trying to make the sale. As an out of state client, John shouldered the heavy lifting of the sale, inspections, and repairs needed. Every detail was promptly addressed which took away the typical stress and replaced it with a sense of calm unlike any realtor that I ever used. I always felt he approached the transaction as if he were the buyer or seller. I have bought and sold over thirty properties and found John to be the realtor that surpassed the rest. Simply put – USE THE BEST…USE JOHN SENER…YOU WILL NEVER REGRET IT."

"John Sener is outstanding! We came out from Boston to buy a place on a quiet street in Montecito and ended up in Downtown Santa Barbara. John was patient and engaged.

"John Sener is outstanding! We came out from Boston to buy a place on a quiet street in Montecito and ended up in Downtown Santa Barbara. John was patient and engaged. He worked closely with us to be sure we knew what different areas had to offer and to ensure we ended up in the “right” place. He gave straightforward opinions on properties and didn’t pressure us to buy whatever home was available. Highly recommend John for his deep knowledge of the market and outstanding ethics."

"We were impressed with the way John kept us informed every step of the process of selling our home. John cared about us and actively listened to our needs and handled any problems immediately. Our 2 ½-year-old son would ask where John was if he had not seen him that day. So, I guess he stayed in ..."

Our 2 ½-year-old son would ask where John was if he had not seen him that day. So, I guess he stayed in touch! We have already recommended John to our family and friends."
