In all our years of working with real estate agents, many of them excellent, none can compare with the service we received in selling our home with Scott. We knew Scott through his monthly newsletters on the Mesa over the 31 years we lived in Santa Barbara. So when making a decision to sell our home, we knew we would choose Scott. Scott met with us and presented a detailed market analysis of home sales in our area. This proved invaluable in our decision making throughout the sale, regarding price and market conditions. He works with a stager who consulted with us at no cost as to best show our home for sale. His assistant, Michelle, kept us up to date in our search for potential places to move to in Santa Barbara. Scott was thorough in guiding us through the paperwork, taking the time to sit down with us as we went through the disclosures on our property. His experience proved to be right time and again as he suggested the timing of the property inspection, what to fix or not fix, etc. We sold our home within a month and Scott guided an inexperienced seller’s agent through a difficult 30 day escrow. He was always available and responsive by phone or text, even when he was dealing with personal family matters. We closed escrow within a day of expectations, were happy with the price we received for our home, and were able to coordinate the 30 day close of escrow on our new home, in large part thanks to Scott’s efforts. And to top it off, Scott has a truck that he lets his clients use for the move. While we had contracted for a POD container, it did not hold all of our furniture and the truck was a life-saver, not to mention money-saver. Scott is top notch! I recommend him without reservation!

My husband & I came to know of Scott Williams several years ago as we would get his newsletters in the mail. His newsletters were always very informative & concise, keeping us very informed regarding home values & sales on the Mesa as well as predicted trends. I would also receive post cards from Scott of upcoming open houses which I would read about as well. My husband & I have lived on the Mesa for 30 yrs. We’ve spent that time fixing our home to the point of perfection. Then…I received an open house post card in the mail from Scott Williams… I knew this was going to be the house of our dreams. It was… we now own the home… so our new journey begins… I highly recommend Scott Williams, he is nose to the grindstone on top of it efficient!! Scott knows what he is doing, has a systematic tried & true philosophy & plan. He is a good listener and has a calm yet direct persona. He knows how to market your home using the latest technology. I could go on…. Again, we highly recommend Scott Williams.

If you want to sell your house in Santa Barbara I strongly recommend Scott Williams. He has helped our family work through difficult real estate negotiations while buying and selling real estate in Santa Barbara. Several years ago Scott helped our son buy a house in Hope Ranch where there were several offers. During the inspection process there was severe flooding inside the house from a leaking toilet as well as other problems not evident initially. Rather than pull out of the deal Scott guided him through negotiations to find the cost of repairing these problems before closing the deal. As the remodel started we learned good contracting skills from Scott. The remodeled house was rented to good tenants as he lives overseas. When my husband passed away Scott gave me a valuation of the house for estate tax purposes so when I recently put it on the market it came out well and I wasn’t stuck with huge capital gains. As a seller I really appreciated Scott’s help and ideas with staging the house and making the brochure. He also suggested an inspection before the sale. Scott understands what is needed from all perspectives and even if your house needs some work he’s there to guide you through the best way of selling your house. –

Less than sixty days ago I called Scott Williams in Santa Barbara to sell my single family property. Today we closed. On my first call he outlined his experience, inquired about my home and told me what to expect. I felt good about what he said and told him to send a contract. The next day—even before I had returned my contract—he had a potential buyer. Scott handled everything, gave good advice, was efficient with my time and prepared all the documents perfectly. We used DocuSign and it could not have been easier. He set up inspections, negotiated with the buyer, helped arrange a few necessary repairs and kept me informed at every step. Side note: I was asked by a friend to work with her friend rather than call Scott Williams. I’m sure glad I followed my own counsel and made the call to Scott.

– We knew from day one that our unique house would be a difficult sell and Scott began the process by having the best marketing materials possible and never tiring of showing our house. He had great photos and drone shots done and guided us through presenting the house in the best possible light.
Before our sale, we had difficult escrows with two potential buyers that fell through and Scott never wavered from his optimistic but practical outlook.
He made difficult situations manageable and always went above and beyond our expectations. Ultimately Scott was able to get us full price for our home and negotiate a decrease in the price of the home we purchased. He was always available when needed and very prompt at returning phone calls and emails.
Scott was a pleasure to work with and we would highly recommend him without reservation.

I grew up on the Mesa in Santa Barbara, so when my parents passed away, it was my responsibility to sell the family home. I knew of Scott Williams by reputation as a long-time agent that was completely knowledgeable of the Mesa. After meeting with him and some other agents, my siblings and I decided
that he would be the best choice for us. His experience and expertise convinced us that he would be the most capable of selling our home at the best price and in a reasonable timeframe. The home needed a lot of work to be done before the sale and Scott helped us prioritize what repairs were essential. As an out-of-town Trustee of the property, it was necessary that I could rely on Mr. Williams to find the right people to do the work. Scott communicated with me regularly so that I felt that I was always a part of the process and aware of the progress of the work. He set up DocuSign for me so I could easily pay the bills as needed. He also made sure to take care of the required permits and inspections. Getting all the paper work done was relatively easy as he had everything completely prepared for my first visit at the beginning of the process. The local market was looking a little past its peak when we opened in late June, so there was some concern about how much interest there would be in the property and if we could get an offer at list price. In the last preparations, Scott chose to have the home professionally staged by a person he recommended. The created look gave the home an inviting warm feel that fit with its value and location. Almost immediately we had two offers made at the price Scott set. He advised me on the best strategy for encouraging counteroffer proposals so we were all pleased when we ended up accepting an offer significantly over the original list price.
There was still some work for Scott to do with issues that came up, but he just went to work for us and got it done. We happily celebrated the close some five weeks later.

Bought a Single Family home in 2016 for approximately $1.25M in Cielito, Santa Barbara, CA.
First off, Scott has a great internet presence. He has been sending me specific listing for over a year. When we finally sold our home, I contacted Scott who immediately made himself available. We came out for one day and visited many homes. When we found what we liked he was instrumental in helping us negotiate with the seller. He was masterful to say the least. The entire time he had our back. He was there for every single issue and patiently walked us through them all. I have met a lot of realtors and while most of them are friendly and supportive, Scott has the experience and proven track record. I was really impressed with his professionalism and genuine interest in our wellbeing. I teach customer service at Cal State Fullerton and thus have a pretty good feel for how things should be done. He raised the bar, Everywhere! I am almost embarrassed in that we asked him for assistance at every turn. He even helped us get home owner’s insurance when my 40-year history with Auto Club was not enough to insure our new home. And the rate that we got was great. We discovered a Radon problem in our new home, because Scott recommended that we test. He then helped us find a company that was able to mitigate the problem. What can I say. He is better than family. Go figure… Someone who lives up to expectations.
There is a lot more that I could say but I think you get the general idea. Scott says what he does and does what he says.

Scott was our second realtor. Our property’s appeal had languished after an inspector suggested some expensive repairs. Scott went through the trouble of getting the inspections and estimates redone, which provided us with much lower costs and incentive to provide lower discounts. With a little

When my wife and I set out to buy a home, we thought that our choice of real estate agent was largely incidental. Working with Scott convinced us, however, of the incalculable value of a great real estate agent. Scott proved to be an incredible guide and mentor during our home-buying process — walking us through the ins and outs of the Santa Barbara real estate market, drawing on his extensive experience in the market to focus our efforts, offering his guidance to optimize our house-hunting experience. He was marvelously flexible in working with our unusual schedule. He brought me along on agent visits to see homes at the earliest possible time. When we finally found the home we desired, Scott proved to be an outstanding ally in our negotiations. He deftly maneuvered us through the negotiating process and saved us an appreciable amount. From start to finish, he was genuinely interested in saving us money and effort, rather than simply looking to make a sale.
During our house-hunting experience, we interacting with many other agents — and while many of them were highly qualified and professional, they never quite seemed to equal Scott’s level of experience and authority. We were extremely fortunate to work with Scott, and will gladly look to him for all of our future real estate activities.

We met Scott and a handful of other agents while browsing open houses in Santa Barbara. We hadn’t fully decided to pull the trigger yet, but knew we would choose Scott to represent us once we were ready. Scott was the most professional, straight forward and knowledgeable agent we had met and was
experienced with the areas that we wanted to look at. Once we made the decision to move, we spent seven or eight Saturdays with him looking at homes while putting our current home on the market to sell. His efficiency in locating and scheduling showings kept us on track. During this period from 06/12 to 12/12, the market was very hot with limited inventory and Scott helped us to understand that we needed to move quickly and that there would potentially be multiple offers.
Scott provided us with a detailed market analysis on each home we were interested in. Once we sold our home, we moved into a vacation rental nearby and were ready to make bids on the homes that suited our needs. Thanks to the time Scott invested with us, we were able to navigate the speedy buying process required at that point and knew exactly what to expect. Ultimately, we bought a home in our desired location on the Mesa through a multiple bid situation. We love our new home and could not have been happier with the process. Scott always had time for us and continued to help us with contacts for local services once we were moved in. It has been a few years now and Scott has become our trusted friend in the community. He is the only real estate agent that we would recommend to anyone without hesitation.

I have relied upon the services of Scott Williams for all my (eight) real estate transactions since 1990. These transactions include residential, land, and multi-family investment properties, including 1031 exchanges, along with a short sale transaction added for good measure.
I have personally recommended Mr. Williams as agent for my company’s (a multi-year Deloitte Technology Fast 500 winner) human resource relocation needs, and he benefited many of our employees with successful transactions, thus winning their continuing real estate business as well.
Mr. Williams always has his finger on the pulse of the market, provides expert advice, and is a skillful negotiator to have on your side of the transaction, be it as a broker or buyer’s agent. Transactions with Nr. Williams are easy, well executed, and rewarding. Mr. Williams is my “go-to” person for questions regarding the state of the Santa Barbara market, provides options to maximize returns and marketability of particular properties, as well as regularly presents opportunities for further investment that help with future returns.
I look forward to expanding further real estate investment opportunities in the Santa Barbara area with Mr. Williams as my agent, thus he wins my highest recommendation to those whom are in need of agent or broker services in the area.

07/01/2012 – Wagy
Bought a Single Family home in 2012 for approximately $675K in Bel Air, Santa Barbara, CA.
I met Scott at a home buying seminar that he hosted. I signed up for MLS updates and attended his webinar on local real estate over the next two plus years while my wife and I looked for the perfect house.
The perfect house finally came (back) on the market and after taking a look, we sat down and wrote an offer. Many offers followed ours and somehow Scott got ours accepted even though there were other offers for a higher price. Scott was very helpful during the purchase process and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for real estate in the Santa Barbara area.
“We met Scott and a handful of other agents while browsing open houses in Santa Barbara. Scott was the most professional, straight forward and knowledgeable agent we had met and was experienced with the areas that we wanted to look at. Scott provided us with a detailed market analysis on each home we were interested in. Ultimately, we bought a home on the Mesa through a multiple bid situation. It has been a few years now and Scott has become our trusted friend in the community. He is the only real estate agent that we would recommend to anyone without hesitation.”

The purchase of this building (which we love) would not have succeeded without Scott’s organization, creative problem solving, thoroughness, and people skills.

Comments from Construction and Real Estate industries
This is just a note to comment on the excellent job Scott Williams did in selling our Planned Unit Development at Hacienda Court. He sold the majority of the units by himself and given time would have sold the complex single handedly. We were pleased to have one agent do such a thorough job with our project.
– Eric Steiner, Golden Coast Development Co.
Just a letter in appreciation for all the work that went into engineering a re-roofing program for 44 homes on the Mesa. We realize that the phone calls and the opening of your home for meetings were extremely inconvenient, but a big service for the roofers who bid on the project and for those who took advantage of the program.

It has been my pleasure to work with Scott Williams on numerous escrows during the past eight years. I have found him to be knowledgeable, conscientious and a hard worker. His attention to detail and follow through is outstanding.
