In their words.

“Hello All. I wrote one glowing review of Francesco and for reasons unknown, it never published, which is a shame as it was a beautiful piece of lyrical prose. This will be more straight to the point: Francesco is great! I was concerned, since he often sells high-end properties, that I would get lost in the shuffle but I couldn't be any more wrong. He was always available if I had questions, was willing to listen to my thoughts and suggestions, and seriously had a passion to sell my house at top dollar. It was interesting. I didn't feel he was working for me as much as he was with me. We made up a plan, followed it, and closed escrow in record time with far more than I anticipated. Everything went smoothly and I couldn't be more happy. I highly recommend Francesco if you desire to sell your house and have an easy time doing it.”

“Francesco Ortiz did an excellent job helping us sell our Yorba Linda home in March 2026. We had a difficult goal, to sell quickly and at a price that minimized our losses, and he worked incredibly hard to help us achieve it. Francesco was genuine, personable, flexible, and proactive throughout the process. He put in a lot of effort during open houses and also connected us with legitimate vendors for the work we needed done. Thanks to his dedication, we sold our home in record time. We would highly recommend Francesco to anyone looking to buy or sell property in Southern California.”

“Francesco listened carefully to my needs and priorities, and worked diligently to fulfill my requests! He made sure that my objectives were met, and was always prompt and professional with communication. I would highly recommend him for your real estate needs!”

“Working with Francesco was great. I especially liked how he offered to involve me in the process if I wanted to be more hands on (which I did). I felt he was working WITH ME instead of for me. He explained everything before, during, and after the sale, which was great. And the fact that I got top dollar for my house was icing on the cake!”

“Francesco has an excellent knowledge of the local market. He provided me with valuable insights and advice that helped me make informed decisions about my home sale. His expertise was incredibly reassuring. His communication was prompt and effective, keeping me informed every step of the way. He was always available to answer my questions and provided regular updates throughout the entire selling process. Best of all, his negotiation skills were just phenomenal. I had sold my house to a real estate investor for a quick cash sale. The buyer wanted to give me an offer that was below the original asking price. Francesco had negotiated it back up to a price I was satisfied with. There was a substantial amount of my funds retained by the buyer after the investor took possession of my house. This was to ensure I vacated the property within the time allowed by the buyer. Francesco made sure that I got every penny of those retained funds returned to me. I highly recommend Francesco for anyone seeking a dedicated and effective real estate specialist whether you are buying or selling a home!”

“It was a pleasure working with Francesco during the sale of my condo. It's been many years since I've been part of a real estate transaction. Francesco made the whole process seem easy and nearly stress free. I highly recommend Francesco. He is a good communicator.”

“Frankie was amazing from start to finish in helping me sell my home. He was patient throughout the process and made sure to advocate for me to get the best possible outcome. Highly recommend.”

“If you're looking for a realtor then look no further. Francesco is your guy. With exceptional service and guidance (being a 1st time home buyer), he guided us through the various steps, had connections for contractors and inspectors as needed, and worked to connect with the seller's agent to come to a negotiation.”

“It was an absolute pleasure working with Mr. Ortiz. He is professional, easy to work with, extremely knowledgeable, and was willing to make himself available for our questions and concerns. He really put in extra care throughout our home buying experience and we will be referring him to friends and family moving forward. At one point he drove all the way from Temecula to Huntington Beach for an inspection that he did not even need to be present for. But he did what was necessary to make things go smooth. Even when we first started inquiring about different listings, he scheduled us a tour quickly with all the details to answer questions we had about the property. He was aggressive with negotiating on our behalf and made the deal happen. We are so grateful to be in our dream home and his hard work made it happen. I would strongly recommend using him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.”

“I'm so grateful to have had Francesco by my side during my real estate experience. Initially, there were some challenges, but what truly impresses me is Francesco's commitment to excellence and dedication to his clients, even months after the transaction. His ongoing support and willingness to help with any questions or concerns I've had have been invaluable. I regret not leaving a review sooner, but I'm happy to have this opportunity to acknowledge Francesco's exceptional service. Call him!”

“Francesco helped my husband and I purchase our first home. He was very patient with us as we had our own personal hurdles. He was quick with responding to any of our questions. We would definitely recommend him to anyone we know that is interested in purchasing a home.”

“We can't speak highly enough of Francesco and the exceptional experience he provided during the purchase of our first home. From the very first meeting to the final closing, Francesco went above and beyond to make the process smooth, efficient, and stress-free. Francesco guided us with professionalism and patience every step of the way. He was always available to answer our questions, provide updates, and ensure we understood the details of the transaction. Most importantly, he genuinely cared about finding the perfect home for our family and worked tirelessly to make it happen. Thanks to Francesco, what could have been an overwhelming process turned into a memorable and exciting experience. If you're looking for someone who is not only skilled but also compassionate and dedicated, we wholeheartedly recommend Francesco.”

“My wife and I were retiring. We were wanting to sell our home and relocate closer to our son and his family. After some research we interviewed Francesco Ortiz. He presented himself as very professional and personal. Not pushy or slimy like some of the other realtors we had dealt with in the past. He laid out his ideas for marketing our home. We immediately felt comfortable with Francesco and decided to have him list our home. Relying on his experience, we followed his marketing plan of an open home and, as he expected, we had multiple offers. As always there were a few issues (not related to Francesco) but he guided us through these issues keeping our interests in front of his. If you need a realtor that places your needs first and foremost Francesco will be your best option. We strongly encourage you to choose Francesco to represent you in either listing your home or assisting you finding your next home. You will not be disappointed.”

“Francesco Ortiz is the best agent I've come across in SoCal, and he wasn't even my agent. My daughter and I were driving to lunch and his signs were everywhere, begging us to take a look. So we took a chance and stumbled upon one of his listings. He made us feel like we walked into our future home (and my daughter loved the fresh baked cookies). He knows how to sell a place, and even followed up, remembering my daughter's name. I wasn't actively looking, but I put in an offer. Francesco spent time with my agent on addressing HOA and insurance questions, even though he had higher offers. He was transparent and kept us in the loop the entire time. I would use Francesco as a Buyer's or Seller's agent in a heartbeat. I wish I used him to sell my prior property!”

“Francesco went above and beyond with the sale of my condo. Within the first week of listing, Francesco conducted three open houses and had multiple offers for me by day 6! All questions and concerns were responded to swiftly and all of my major goals for the sale were achieved. When it came time to move out, Francesco was there lending a hand. Francesco made my first home sale a smooth and relatively painless process. I highly recommend his services!”

“We had a great experience working with Francesco! Not only did he possess a wealth of knowledge of the area and industry, his professionalism and kindness throughout this process exceeded our expectations. We really appreciated his responsiveness to all our questions and his willingness to go above and beyond to help us find the home that fit all our checkboxes. He genuinely cares for each of his clients and takes the time to understand their goals and needs. We're very thankful for Francesco and highly recommend him!”

“Francesco was a pleasure to work with! He explained all the processes along the way in a very easy to understand way. Anytime I had questions or concerns he answered his phone and was very attentive to my concerns. I would definitely recommend him to anyone I know who is either looking to buy or sell!”

“Francesco was very helpful and knowledgeable and great to work with. We did not end up hiring Francesco but would not hesitate to hire him in the future because of his immense knowledge in the area we were searching and professionalism. Thank you for all your help Francesco, we greatly appreciated your advice and time.”

“Francesco was instrumental with a recent home purchase that required a very fast turnaround time. He was highly attentive, proactive, and creative with getting this deal closed in time. He'd also help out in areas that aren't strictly the scope of a real estate agent which was extremely helpful. Overall he was a great person to work with and someone I'd highly recommend as a strong partner with any home purchase.”

“Francesco has been instrumental with closing a very fast turnaround house purchase. He was highly attentive, proactive, and creative with getting this deal closed in time. He'd even go above and beyond what's strictly within the scope of real estate agents. Overall he's highly recommended as a strong partner with any home purchase decisions.”

“It's been a pleasure to work with Francesco. Besides his excellent real estate agent skills, I would like to emphasize his consideration on behalf of the clients. He acts and thinks in his clients' best interests, which outdoes other agents I know. And the great negotiation skills to gain a good closing price for us, avoiding being led by the sellers. Definitely recommend!”

“Francesco did an amazing job guiding us through our first home buying experience. He showed us every house we wanted to see and would answer any questions we had and made sure we felt comfortable throughout the process. He was available at all times of the day and made it very easy to reach him. He worked hard to get our very first offer accepted on our dream home! Would recommend Francesco to anyone looking for a realtor.”

“Francesco is an amazing young gentleman. He showed us several homes and made us feel right at ease. Looking for a new home can be very stressful and overwhelming but Francesco made us feel comfortable, answered all our questions, and was very patient with us. He stayed in touch with us regularly. We felt seen, heard, and important. I would highly recommend Francesco for all your realtor services.”

“Francesco is the best realtor that I have ever had the pleasure of working with and I have worked with many over the years and not a single one of them were on the same wavelength on the professionalism and kindness as Francesco. Nobody works as hard as Francesco. He's outstanding. It's refreshing to see someone this dedicated and steadfast to their chosen career path. He is really good at what he does, and you can tell that he is passionate about his career and helping others achieve their dreams. He helped me fulfill my dreams of owning a condo in the Bel Air area of Los Angeles. There were a lot of obstacles to overcome in the process and he came up with the creative idea of a buy-before-you-sell program, so before I had to sell my current home I was able to exchange it for my desired condo. It wasn't easy having to oversee everything from out of state, but Francesco was always there for me to answer any questions, and he was always my emotional support system when anxiety, fears and doubts filled my head. He also took great care of my tenant and her son and did everything he could to make sure the move was as smooth and seamless as possible for them. Thank you Francesco, you deserve all the recognition for all your hard work and you gave me restored faith and trust for realtors. Going forward you're my lifelong realtor and friend.”

“As first time buyers, we were truly appreciative of having Francesco. Everything was new for us, so we really needed someone who was knowledgeable and attentive. He was very professional from the beginning and throughout the process, helping us understand the market and working for us behind the scenes. We had a unique situation and Francesco was able to help us buy a place that aligned with our needs and goals. He is a good agent and just a pleasant person. We would definitely recommend him to others.”

“Francesco was extremely helpful in the process of buying our home. He was ready from day one, having already done his research on the area and providing comps for us to review. There were many times where I was uncertain during the process as I was a first time home buyer, however Francesco was extremely knowledgeable and was always able to walk me through each step down to a granular level. His communication skills were impeccable; there were a couple occasions where he was not able to answer the phone (I called him frequently, 5-10x/day), and each occasion he responded with a text right away and a call within a couple minutes after. Even though I was a first time buyer and was not at all familiar with the home buying process, Francesco made it simple and stress free. I would highly recommend Francesco to anyone interested in buying a home!”

“As a first-time home buyer I was feeling a bit overwhelmed by the process, but Francesco went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly. He took the time to understand my needs and goals. He was patient, responsive to the enormous amount of questions I had, well-organized, professional, and knowledgeable. I appreciated the consistent updates he provided, which assured me everything was on schedule. Francesco helped me get my perfect home and I look forward to working with him in the future.”

“I'm a first-time home buyer and knew absolutely nothing about what to expect during this process. Francesco was everything I could ever want and need in a realtor. He showed us different options for our price range and also showed places we were interested in that we had found on our own. I would definitely recommend him to anyone and everyone!”

“Francesco Ortiz is the one you want! My search started over a year ago to find my second home, and after failed attempts with finding the right Realtor I nearly gave up. The lack of communication with other Realtors, and one even ghosted me, left me discouraged. I decided to try one last time and went on Zillow just to browse. After a few likes on certain homes, Francesco Ortiz reached out to me. He showed me the home I liked among many others. Although none were the perfect home at first, he made every attempt to take me to all the houses I requested to see. We went in the late evening after work and on weekends. In total we saw more than 30 together. Francesco was with me every step of the way, consistent and professional. His sincerity and honesty about each house, and pointing out things for me to be aware of, helped me see things I missed. He did not try to rush me or push me to buy anything that I was not 100% certain about. His professionalism, persistence, knowledge, honesty and respect of my wants and needs made everything about buying a house better than I ever expected. I would use Francesco again and would refer him to anyone I know. Thank you Francesco Ortiz!”

“I highly recommend Francesco Ortiz as a real estate agent. His exceptional communication skills and speedy responsiveness made the entire process seamless. Francesco demonstrated a genuine dedication to understanding our needs and specifications, ensuring that every property he presented met our criteria. He listened attentively and never pushed us into hasty decisions, allowing us to make choices that aligned with our vision. Francesco's professionalism and care for his clients were evident throughout our experience, making him an invaluable asset in the real estate industry. If you're in search of a reliable and attentive agent, look no further than Francesco Ortiz.”

“I have nothing but good things to say about Frankie and his team. Stellar from the beginning to the end of the sale. Frankie put in hard work, week after week of open houses. Even when things slowed down in the housing market he pushed until we got the right buyer lined up. We worked together on how to stage and the tweaks that needed to be made, and the level of professionalism and follow up, which is of utmost importance when buying or selling your biggest asset, was beyond great! I hope to work with the Ortiz team again when I find my next home.”

“From first viewing to keys in hand in just 2 months, Francesco Ortiz made our dream home a reality! Francesco is simply the best! He quickly understood exactly what we were looking for, and every property he showed us could have been a great match, until we found the one we fell in love with that checked every single box. Without his sharp expertise, we couldn't have closed on our home. It wasn't an easy transaction, but Francesco was on top of everything throughout the inspections, appraisals, negotiations, and every detail involved in purchasing a home. He treated the search as if he was buying for himself. Francesco was always on point, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable about the market. Responsive, dedicated, and still helping us even after closing with excellent referrals, Francesco has turned from our realtor into a lifelong friend. If you're looking for someone you can trust completely, don't think twice, Francesco is the one you want by your side!”

“Francesco was an absolute pleasure to work with. His patience, knowledge, and work ethic were second to none. Would highly recommend him to anyone.”

“Francesco is a true professional, who is super knowledgeable, straight up, reliable, and provides a fast, stress free service. He'll go above and beyond for you, and provides an exceptional experience, as he really cares about you, your business and your perfect home. I highly recommend using Francesco and his team if you're looking to buy or sell your home in Newport Beach, CA.”

“If you're looking for an experienced, detail-oriented, and genuinely caring real estate agent, Francesco is the one to call. He is friendly, professional, and truly goes above and beyond for his clients. As someone who wasn't familiar with Orange County, I appreciated how accessible and responsive Francesco was. He patiently answered all my questions and made the entire experience easy to navigate. He genuinely listens, understands your priorities, and takes into account the kind of neighborhood where you'd feel most comfortable. If you're looking for a home in Orange County, look no further. Francesco is the person you need and want by your side.”

“My sister and I are very happy with everything Francesco did to help us purchase our new home. We both felt very lucky to have him as our realtor. He spent a great amount of time answering all our questions. He is a true professional and genuine in nature. His expertise and knowledge showed throughout this process and we were able to find our perfect home because of him. We will definitely be recommending Francesco to friends and family!”

He is a wonderful source of guidance and knowledge about the process and business. Most importantly, he listened to what was most crucial to us in getting our new home.”

“We were so lucky to have Francesco as our agent. He helped us find the perfect home. Not only did he make the process simple and easy for us to understand, but he also showed above-and-beyond customer service and expertise. We recommended him to my newly wed brother and sister-in-law and they keep thanking us all the time!”

Francesco is knowledgeable and most importantly very responsive! He always answered my questions and was there to answer his phone whenever I called him. I will definitely use him again!!”

“Our experience with Francesco Ortiz was positive from the initial meeting. We always felt he had our best interest at heart and not just a sale to close. He never pressured us into submitting offers or seeing homes we were not interested in. He explained every step to us and we felt confident in his ability to negotiate and inform us of any situation that was not in our best interest. I would highly recommend him as a partner in your search for your perfect home.”

“Couldn't be happier, great guy who's not afraid to pass along great prospects! My wife and I couldn't be happier he found us our forever home. Thank you Francesco!”

“I have worked with Francesco for a long time now and I have always looked up to him as an agent.

He is a great choice if you are looking for a local realtor.”

“Ortiz Group represented the buyer on one of my transactions. Right away he conducted himself in a professional manner with a team approach. Enjoyed working with him and his team. Would like to work together again. Cheers! Shelly Eshelman and Team”

“I highly recommend Mr. Ortiz. His eye for detail and level of service is unrivalled. If you need a house he is the man. Once committed he will not let you down. Integrity, honor and trustworthy are the first words that come to mind. Feel confident that if you reach out to him he is your man for the job.”
