What Our Clients Say...

Tharan Chahal

This team was extraordinary! From communication to media, my husband and I felt supported throughout the entire journey of selling our home!

kaveh seivani

We had an absolutely fantastic experience working with Roland and his team to purchase our dream home. From the very first day through closing, the entire process was incredibly smooth, organized, and well planned. Roland was always responsive, knowledgeable, patient, and informative. He took the time to clearly explain every step of the home buying process, helped us understand the disclosures and all the important details, and made sure we always knew what was happening and what came next. What we appreciated most was how well Roland understood what my wife and I were looking for. He listened to our needs and preferences and helped us find a home that truly feels tailored to us, not just any house, but the right one. Buying a home can be stressful and complicated, but Roland and his team made the entire experience feel straightforward and manageable. We always felt supported and well informed, from our initial search all the way through getting the keys. We couldn’t be happier with our new home and the experience we had. We highly recommend Roland and his team to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Five stars without hesitation!

Mathew DeSanctis

When my wife and I bought a home on Mare Island, Lydia Osage-Smith was the seller's agent. We knew then and there that we wanted to engage her to sell our home when the time came. Sooner than we expected that time came, and each step of the way she came proactively prepared. We attribute her expertise to getting exactly what we wanted for our home relying on her extensive experience in the area. Not only is she and her team professional and knowledgeable, but also some of the kindest and warmest people you will ever meet. If you're looking to buy or sell, you won't go wrong with this team. They understand the ins and outs, and how much a home (and the buying/selling process) can really mean to families like ours.

My wife and I feel incredibly lucky and appreciative to have worked with Roland Osage and his team. As first-time homebuyers, we could not have asked for a better guide through the process. Roland was patient, attentive, enthusiastic, and consistently clear in his communication, helping us understand each step while also giving us thoughtful, professional feedback when we needed it most. He listened carefully to our needs and wants, and struck the perfect balance throughout the process; everything felt completely catered to who we are and what we were looking for. We toured many, many houses on this journey, and every home Roland personally selected made me think, “Man, this guy really gets us.” We attribute all of the success we had in finding a great home to his guidance, judgment, and support. I could keep going, but I’ll just say this: I enjoyed the collaboration so much that I want to buy another house just to keep working with him.

Rachel Winder

Working with Lydia was truly the best experience we could have ever asked for! My fiancé and I originally met with Roland to talk about buying a home sometime in the future. We thought homeownership was still a ways off, but Roland and his team made it happen much sooner than we ever imagined. From the very beginning, they gave us confidence that our dream was possible. Once we started working with Lydia, the ball started rolling quickly—in the most beautiful way. She helped us prepare and stage the condo we owned, and thanks to her guidance, it sold in just 9 days! The entire process felt smooth, organized, and stress-free. As first-time homebuyers, we had so many questions and moments of uncertainty, but Lydia was always just a phone call away. She was incredibly patient, kind, honest, and genuine throughout every step of the journey. She never made us feel rushed or pressured and always took the time to explain things so we felt comfortable and informed. When it came time to find our new home, Lydia supported us every step of the way and helped us find everything we were looking for. She truly listened to what mattered to us and worked tirelessly to make sure we found the perfect fit. As young first-time homeowners, we couldn’t have asked for a better person to guide us through this process. Lydia made what felt like a distant dream become a reality. Her professionalism, dedication, and genuine care for her clients are unmatched. She is knowledgeable, responsive, and truly invested in the people she works with. We are so grateful for Lydia and the entire team. If you’re looking for a realtor who will support you, advocate for you, and make the process feel exciting instead of overwhelming, Roland, Lydia and their team are the people you need!

Roland is an outstanding realtor. Call him now...you won't be sorry. We knew we in capable hands from the very start when Roland (and Lydia) sat down with us to see our home and discuss how we could make the most money possible while still having a good experience with the transition to our new home. Roland has endless resources for home improvement, is clear and honest in his communication style, and is no slouch on social media either. In other words, he is very up to date on the world of real estate...it seems like he lives it. And, he's genuine and hands on (I would frequently run into him at the house we sold when I'd come over to check up it myself). Call him! You'll be glad you did.

Lydia was a perfect choice in a realtor for us. She helped us make just the right number of improvements to our home of 27 years and we sold it for a healthy profit in a matter of days on the market. She is experienced, calm yet confident, and her track record proves that. We never felt hesitant to reach out to her when we had multiple questions (sometimes in one day), and we strongly recommend her to anyone.
