Testimonials

Read what our clients have to say about working with us.
"Kylie with Hitchcock and Associates is absolutely phenomenal. She and her team worked seamlessly together, and in close partnership with our lender, to make every step of our home-buying process efficient, transparent, and stress-free. From start to finish, Kylie treated us like family. She took the time to explain every step in detail, ensuring that we always felt informed and at ease. Her team, London, Brooklyn, and Virgie, were equally wonderful, keeping us updated and supported every step of the way with timely communication and genuine care. Kylie consistently went above and beyond for our family. She collaborated closely with our lender, Jenna Smith, to run calculations across multiple scenarios so we could make informed, strategic decisions. She proactively scheduled inspections, allowing us to submit a more competitive offer and shorten contingency timelines. Her expertise, preparation, and strategic thinking ultimately paid off; we were able to close escrow on the home of our dreams. Beyond her professionalism, Kylie’s kindness and thoughtfulness made this experience truly unforgettable. Buying a home was a surprise for our 10-year-old daughter, and Kylie went out of her way to make it magical, arranging for a photographer to capture the big reveal and creating a personalised keychain for our daughter to announce the surprise. It was an incredibly special moment that our family will cherish forever, all thanks to Kylie and her amazing team. Thank you, Kylie, London, Brooklyn, and Virgie, for your hard work, dedication, and heart. You made our dream come true, and we are so grateful to each of you!"

"Kat Hitchcock and her fabulous team were outstanding. They are the best in the business, hands down. They helped us purchase a home in Santa Barbara and remained calm and collected throughout the entire process. We had a contingency associated with selling our condo as part of the purchase, which put another layer of stress on our escrow process, but they handled it with ease. Cannot thank them enough for their role in this process."

"Kat, Kylie, and Kara exceeded our expectations when we needed a property sold. The property needed some love, and the team was on top of it when it came to repairs, remodeling, and selling the property. They were extremely responsive, even when the water heater leaked in the middle of the night on a weekend! Between the remodel and staging, the property looked fantastic, and we were able to get a price beyond what we thought we could get. I would highly recommend Hitchcock and Associates to anyone looking for a realtor in Santa Barbara and the surrounding areas. They are very knowledgeable and know what prices will get potential buyers interested in the property. They are a great team, and we will definitely use them again!"

"The Hitchcock Associates realtor team is terrific! They have the knowledge of Ventura County, down to streets and neighborhoods, that we were looking for. They are great listeners – they took the time to understand our housing wants and requirements. Next, they got to work and helped us secure the perfect home. Communication is prompt and effective. They made themselves available for house showings, conference calls, and in-person visits to make sure we could move fast. They gave us the confidence and insights that led to our best decision. They are unmatched advocates at each step and in negotiations. We recommend Hitchcock to friends and family. Talk to them first before your next move."

"The Hitchcock team was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. They really take the time to explain the home-buying process so it's less overwhelming and make sure you understand all timelines and the mountains of paperwork that come with buying a home. They are very responsive and have great communication. We bought in a town that was relatively new to us, and Kylie's local knowledge was so reassuring when finding trustworthy contractors to do inspections. This team really does put their clients first, and it shows. We felt very supported throughout the entire process. I highly recommend the Hitchcock team and will definitely use them again when the time comes."

"We have now sold one house and bought another with the Hitchcock Team. This was scary and exciting, and we felt we were in good hands. There were so many details to manage (paperwork, home repairs, legal, financial). They knew how to manage everything. They worked hard for us. They got stuff done quickly. It seems like they were on call at all hours, responding to texts and e-mails immediately. They seem to know everyone in town, all the realtors, repair people, financial people, and the rest. They went all out marketing our house, and with a team produced beautiful photos, and sent them out via a range of media. They were ethical and honest. They are nice and, honestly, fun to work with. They were easy to talk with and enthusiastic about our move. We are so grateful."

"I had the pleasure of working with Kylie Cardenas on a transaction where I served as the lender, and I must say it was a fantastic experience. Kylie, as the listing agent, demonstrated remarkable professionalism and efficiency. Her proactive communication and attention to detail ensured that everything proceeded smoothly. Kylie was always on top of things, making sure all parties were well-informed and coordinated. I highly recommend Kylie for her exceptional service and dedication. It was a delight working with her!"

"Kat, Kylie, and Kara have been friends of ours for years prior to the moment we decided to sell our home. Kat always made our friendship a priority and I looked forward to seeing her name pop up on my caller ID because we would talk about all sorts of random things like our kids, spouses, travels, and business, not just updates on what real estate was doing in California, but when she talked real estate, she knew it all and backed up her talk with performance you would see all over the area by houses listed, selling, happy buyers she represented, and an incredible social media campaign for any property she was a part of. When we decided to sell, it wasn’t even a question as to who we would list with. We met with Kat at our home and gave her the key, “It’s yours,” we said. We didn’t need a presentation with all the bells and whistles she is known to provide; we knew she was the best at selling real estate from what we had seen in her social media presence and recognition in the industry, and didn’t want to hold her back from doing what she does best. From the second we signed with her, Kat, Kylie, and Kara went all in and, in an extremely effective and efficient way, got our house looking perfect by managing any minor repairs and cosmetic needs, staged, listed, brought in a handful of offers, and negotiated an above-listed price for us! It all happened so fast, we still don’t feel like it was real. We would list with her over and over and over again. And if we were buying, we’d call her."
