WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY

Altie was absolutely fantastic. Never had a realtor quite like him. Always on top of things, always responsible, always accurate information, never high-pressure, even after my purchase, he has been there for me for all sorts of advice, and help at least 10 out of 10!

— Steven M.

WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY

I would recommend Altie to anyone looking to move in the Orinda area. He honestly was the best real estate agent we could have asked for. He's honest, he cares deeply about doing the right thing and getting his client in the right house for them, he knows the local market extremely well (he also resides here), and he was super helpful through the entire process (search, comparing prices, putting in an ap...

WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY

Altie is an A+. Where do we begin? My wife and I searched for a home in Lamorinda from across the country. When we first met with Altie, he put us at ease with his knowledge, honesty, and responsiveness. Altie showed us homes in person and virtually in a smart, efficient way. After watching the market for several months, we hadn't seen anything we were really interested in. Altie understood our preferenc...

WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY

Highly recommend Altie. He's honest, loyal, and has the client's best interest in mind. Hands-on, won't pass you off to an associate. Takes a long-term approach and realizes the value of building relationships. I've worked with Altie on different projects in Orinda and Tahoe and view him as a trusted partner and expert in his domain.

WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY

Altie is a wonderful agent! Without his diligent, expert, and patient work, we would never have gotten into the tough Orinda market. I plan on never selling the house he helped us get, but if I did, I would certainly have Altie rep it. I recommend him to anyone looking to buy and sell in LaMorInda.

— Lynn B.

WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY

Altie Schmitt sold our house under extremely difficult conditions in dealing with banks that were most uncooperative. Alton exercised calm, cool professionalism in dealing with these adversities. His attention to detail, follow-up, and tenacity were the keys. He never gave up despite the banks and the derelict work. Alton was very creative in solving the issues that came up. I couldn't recommend him high...

WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY

Altie sold our home and negotiated the purchase of our new home in 2009. His knowledge of the area and negotiation skills are excellent. Even in a tough market, he was able to sell our home for a great price and expertly guided us through the process of purchasing a bank-owned home. I would highly recommend Altie to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.

— Anthony G.

WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY

While we were purchasing our house in Orinda, the market was crazy with houses going quickly for $100,000's more than asking and buyers expecting immediate offers with no contingencies. In this high-pressure environment, you need the best realtor on your side to avoid making expensive mistakes. We found that in Altie Schmitt. Altie has his finger on the pulse of the market, knows every house inside and o...
