Ramiro & Erica Rivas – John Aaroe Group

I worked with Ramiro on finding a place to live in Pasadena with my family and could not be happier with the service we received and the home we now live in. Ramiro took his time to make sure we were happy with our decision and checked in regularly to make sure the transition went smooth. He is incredibly knowledgeable and meticulous in finding what the client is looking. He is the top of his class and I am looking sending more business his way.

Ramiro and Erica were fantastic agents. From the start they made the process of selling my condo as simple and smooth as possible. The photos and posting of my condo were gorgeous. They constantly communicated with me during the process and even helped take care of some extra tasks since I was selling while already relocated to another state. My condo sold faster and better than I ever expected and it is all thanks to Ramiro and Erica. I would recommend to anyone to use them as their agent.

My husband and I liked Ramiro and Erica from our very first meeting. They were sweet, knowledgeable and what got our attention the most was their marketing strategy… they clearly and very professionally presented how they would market our Pasadena home… everything from aggressively informing the local real estate agents, to direct mail advertising, to a youtube video with a drone fly-​over, to advertising on key sites targeting overseas buyers, to being willing to bring in one of the best photographers to make our photos pop. Erica also offered excellent input as to how to inexpensively adjust some features in our home and backyard to make it pop. Then it came time to discuss the price at which to list the home… The agent we were working with previously didn’t believe we could sell our house for the price tag we wanted to list our home at, wanting to list for over $ 100K less. Ramiro was honest about his price point recommendation yet was willing to be aggressive in marketing the house for the price we felt comfortable listing it for. We ultimately got our asking price, making it a record sale in our neighborhood (bringing in the highest price tag of any home in the history of Daisy Villa). Thank you Ramiro and Erica!

Ramiro came to look at a property my husband and I invested in for rehab and resell. Before I even signed the listing agreement with Ramiro, he’d already put in so much effort on the house we were selling, including going to the county records office to find out its architectural significance! Now that’s someone who cares about homes. He was very passionate about the property my husband and I were rehabbing which was a mid century modern. Once the property was on the market Ramiro got us offers very quickly. He was super easy to work with. Plus he puts everything in Docusign which is way easier than dealing with printing out and scanning or faxing (who faxes anymore??). So I highly recommend these guys.

Ramiro & Erica take a different approach with today’s real estate market by utilizing the latest technologies, market research, and business strategies. They are passionate about their work and prompt with their communications. These realtors know Pasadena well, and make me feel like I am in good hands.

Ramiro and Erica helped us find our first home. We purchased a short sale property which needed an expert in the process who knew and understood the detailed requirements and regulations to be followed. We could not have found a better team to guide us. Their knowledge of the Pasadena/​Altadena area and their patience for finding us what we wanted made all the difference and finally achieving the dream of becoming homeowners. They are steady and trustworthy couple that are a pleasure to work with. Call Ramiro and Erica. You will not be disappointed.

Ramiro and Erica are truly a dream team. They represented us in the purchase of our home and we couldn’t have been more pleased with their efficiency and professionalism. Ramiro and Erica negotiated with the Seller and were able to secure us our home though there were multiple offers submitted. When the Seller became difficult and began to stall the escrow process, Ramiro stepped in to facilitate the deal and ensure escrowed closed on time. Working in the commercial RE industry, I know how time is of the essence when closing a deal and I had the utmost faith in Ramiro and Erica every step of the way. They go the extra mile to ensure their clients have a positive experience and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell.
