David Morrell Real Estate - Seacliff, California

Ramesh Theivendran

I have known David for more than 21 years and he is a gem of a person. We met first when I was looking for buying my first home. David was very patient with me & honest in answering all questions about real estate and that made me stick with him to get our first home. When we worked with David often times I would read about real estate forecast, market and financing etc. and ask some challenging questions and he would always provide a honest answer and never applied any pressure to buy or close a deal. There are few times he has told me that I knew more 🙂 which is really not true. I highly recommend David for anyone looking for buying real estate.

David Morrell was our realtor when my husband and I recently sold our home in Aptos, CA. Google allows a maximum of five stars for recommendations - if we could give David SIX stars, we would!

From the beginning of our transaction to the end, David did an excellent job. He was fully knowledgeable about the real estate market; he was a great communicator - with us, with potential buyers, and with other agents; he was responsive to a fault; he was patient; and he knew all the right people to prepare our home for sale - inspectors, photographers, etc.

One thing we especially appreciated about David was his knowledge of the real estate market. After careful analysis, David recommended a listing price for our house. My husband and I insisted on listing the house somewhat higher than David suggested. After a month on the market with no offers, we lowered the price to David's original price. Within one day, we had a full price, all cash offer. David knew the market value of our home, yet he respected us enough to let us try our price. In the end, David's knowledge of the market was spot on.

The single most outstanding quality that David brings to the real estate process is the fact that he really and truly cares about his clients. Their satisfaction is paramount to him, and he works very hard to ensure their happiness. When you combine this personal and warmhearted concern with his professional expertise, you have an unusual, and unbeatable, combination.

Without reservation, we highly recommend David Morrell as a real estate professional.

David and his entire team do a fantastic job. His knowledge about the local Santa Cruz real estate market is second to none and he has a massive network of local realtors and other professionals which you’ll need in either listing or buying a home. We chose to work with David after reviewing his positive reviews and transaction history online. In this area it’s very important to work with real estate professionals who know the local area as each home and neighborhood has its own characteristics. We were in a situation where we wanted to sell our existing home and buy another home in the area at the same time. David guided us through the entire process, and ultimately helped us get into our next home. There were multiple offers on the home we wanted to buy and David guided us through the negotiation process over the span of several days in order to make sure we got the right property for our family.
We’ll be working with David when it’s time to conduct our next real estate transaction in the Santa Cruz area.

We were fortunate to have met David Morrell through my Mother who knew him. When my Mother passed away unexpectedly we called David to help sell the house and property.

We appreciate his professionalism, knowledge and cheerful attitude; and especially his constant communication and patience answering all of our many questions during the entire process of preparing and selling the property.

We can see why my Mother said that when the “time came” she wanted David to be the one to sell the house.

It was a pleasure working with David and we would highly recommend him to others.

David Morrell has been our realtor through purchase and sale of three houses over 20 years and we couldn't be more pleased. David recently shepherded us through purchase of a neglected but charming house + ADU on Santa Cruz's west side. He helped us strategize every step of the way, from the negotiations over purchase to planning renovations. He was super attentive--he really listened to us, and helped us to see possibility in a challenging market. We are thrilled with our new house and grateful to David for making the process so smooth.

I have know David since the beginning of 2019. I watched him as an excellent agent in all regards. I felt most importantly he truly cared about his clients success.
He handled family relationships on an estate sale with empathy and consideration. He prepared the deffered maintenance and dated home they inherited to get the most money possible. I was, frankly, amazed at his skills with buyers’ agents and with the Sellers’ emotions about their parents’ home. Since then he has overcome adversity by thoroughly beating an aggressive cancer 18 months ago. He is incredibly fully recovered and is working as hard for his clients as I can imagine anyone can.
All in all, David is impressive.

David is one of those rare professionals that balances top-notch abilities with a humble personality. He always made us feel like his only client. We had a rare and very specific set of requirements for our dream home and he had those in mind every time he suggested a property.

Once we found our dream home, he did a fantastic job of negotiating with the seller and walking us through the various concerns with city ordinances and the like. On one occasion he drove me down to the city to make sure all of my questions were answered. Yet another benefit that I would have never even thought about is his strong and loyal network of people in related industries in the area. From the home inspector to the escrow agent David brought in people of a very high caliber that pushed hard to make our dream a reality.

David Morrell is a determined, knowledgeable, and strategic agent. Before we made an offer on a home that received multiple offers, he predicted the selling price and he nailed it within $500. His knowledge of the market and his ability to evaluate a property were key in getting us our dream home. Many thanks to David for his effort in getting us settled!
