Received a stellar review from a superstar client on Opal Cliff: "My wife Camille and I offer our highest praise to Spencer Hays and Ben Strock of Strock Realty. It had long been our dream to move from the East Bay to Santa Cruz and live near the ocean. We met Spencer and Ben and had been working with them for a few years looking for the right opportunity. Over that time, they were always at the ready to answer questions and show us properties. In summer 2022, we found the perfect property but getting the deal together was a high-wire act between the sale of our East Bay home, rising interest rates, and negotiating the price on the Santa Cruz home. Spencer spent many days (and nights), and even time on his vacation, helping us navigate both deals. He left no stone unturned and used his considerable expertise to close the deals for us. And when we had final questions about the crawl space in the Santa Cruz home, Spencer dawned protective outer clothing and a mask, went underground and took pictures of every nook and cranny! And after we closed but before we moved in, Spencer set us up with terrific local contractors to finish up a few things and he came by the house in the mornings to meet them. He has incredible attention to detail and provides a full service follow through that is rare. Perhaps what is most special about Spencer is how patient and sensitive he was to our needs and concerns, without fail. He is a true gentleman, and we are forever grateful to him and Ben for bringing us to our dream home. If you have an opportunity to work with him, know that you are engaging a person that truly cares."
