Buyer representation
Buy. Done properly.
A clear plan, a trusted lender and every step explained, from pre-approval to keys.
How we work
Buyer representation with Desantis Realty Group.
Buying across Santa Cruz, Santa Clara and Monterey Counties means three very different markets a few miles apart. We help you decide where a purchase is realistic, get you pre-approved with a lender we trust, and compete for the right home without overpaying for it.
What to expect
- A buyer consultation that maps your budget to real neighborhoods
- Introductions to lenders and inspectors we have closed with before
- Showings scheduled around your week, including evenings and weekends
- Offer strategy written for each specific property and seller
- A transaction coordinator tracking every contingency date

Questions
Answered honestly.
What makes a top real estate agent in Santa Cruz different?
A top real estate agent in Santa Cruz prices for the buyer a home will actually attract — including Silicon Valley buyers — coordinates every vendor, and keeps you updated before you ask. That is the standard Desantis Realty Group works to on every sale, in English, Spanish or Italian.
Does Mario Desantis work with first-time buyers?
Yes. First-time buyers get a plain-language plan, a lender introduction and a real pre-approval before touring, and honest guidance on where a first purchase is realistic in each county.
Does Mario Desantis work with investors and commercial property?
Yes. The team underwrites multi-unit and income property honestly before you tour or list, and represents buyers and sellers of mixed-use, retail and owner-user commercial property across the three counties.
Can Desantis Realty Group help me relocate to the Central Coast or Silicon Valley?
Yes. For relocating buyers the team tours on your behalf, sends film of every home, arranges remote signing and handles local details in English, Spanish or Italian.
