NextHome Ethos Realty

We interviewed several agents when we decided to sell our house. Upon interviewing it was clear that Damian was going to be the best choice. What stood out the most to us was that Damian wasn’t interested in selling himself per se, what he DID want to do though, is sell our house. Damian will tell you exactly what you need to do to sell your home quickly and for the best possible price. His approach is clear, logical and based in his experience and we appreciated that immensely. We decided to give Damian and his approach our full trust in selling our home and allow him to take care of the entire process. He would give us suggestions which were all very reasonable (and in hindsight 100% accurate) and we let him run with the ball. Listing a home is only half the battle, the entire legal, negotiation, and closing phase is complicated and full of jargon in which a home seller may only experience a couple times in their lives. Damian navigated the entire process with ease and confidence. To sum up, we are very pleased with the outcome and speed of sale and would happily recommend Damian to anybody who is interested in selling (or buying) a home. He is a solid person to have on your side, not to mention a heck of a nice guy. Thanks Damian.

All I can say is if you want to sell your home Damian Bautista is the person to call. His knowledge of the real estate market is exceptional. Not only does he list your house for sale he is very active in promoting the sale not with just the MLS but all of social media will see your home advertised. He updates you daily on the progression of marketing. I had this same house listed with another realtor for almost a year. He did not put a lock box on my properties because I finally discovered he only wanted the house to be shown by him. He was only interested in listing and selling himself so he could claim all of the commission.
If you use Damian Bautista you will not be disappointed!!

I had the pleasure of working with Damian Bautista from Next Home Realty to purchase my first home, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. My situation was not simple, we worked with the Placer County down payment assistance program along with a second lender, which made the process very long but Damian was incredible every step of the way.

From start to finish, he went above and beyond. He never once made me feel like my questions were too much, and he stayed fully engaged and supportive even though my home search lasted well over a year. He showed me 30+ homes during that time and was always flexible with my schedule, whether it was early mornings, late evenings, weekends, or even last-minute showings.

What stood out the most was his communication and honesty. He was always quick to respond, transparent, and made sure I understood everything. As a first-time homebuyer, that meant a lot. He took the time to sit down with me and go through every document page by page, making sure I was comfortable and never signing anything I didn’t fully understand.

Damian’s knowledge, patience, and reliability made what could have been a stressful process feel manageable and even enjoyable. He truly carried me through the process and made buying my first home a great experience.

I would highly recommend him to anyone especially first-time buyers who want someone they can trust to guide them every step of the way.

We have used Damian to both buy a home and sell a home. We highly recommend Damian with Next Home. More than anything else, his communication with the sellers, buyers. title companies, other real estate agents, and ourselves was outstanding. Damian has such a vast amount of experience in the construction trade that he is able to evaluate physical issues and prioritize and mitigate them. He has a calm, no-nonsense style backed by a deep knowledge of how to handle any situation honestly, swiftly, and fairly.

My home had been on the market for over a year when I found Brendon. I had already used two other realtors. After interviewing several other realtors, Brendon told me of his marketing plan. I was sold on his sales approach to sell my home. We had our first open house and had more people viewing my home in those two days than the entire year we had it listed. We received an offer. With all the rules and forms selling a mobile home today, Brendon stepped up to the plate and researched how to achieve all the red tape it requ8red. He spent hours at the building department through Placer County to make sure the required forms were completed correctly.

Brendon truly went above and beyond to help me sell my home! His marketing techniques worked better than the other realtors we used. He was always available when I had a question. I really did appreciated everything he did to help sell my home!

Denielle is one of the nicest realtors we have worked with.
If a question arose and she didn’t have the answer she would research it immediately.
She has shown professionalism in every way.
Denielle is a Realtor we would recommend to anyone, she has a heart of gold and she is very passionate in making sure her clients are satisfied.
We would like to thank her for her service LaRonn and Brenda Gray

Working with Damien Bautista was truly a positive experience. Even when the process of selling my home had its challenges, Damien was calm, professional, and fully committed to getting the job done. He guided me through every step, offered clear advice, and kept me informed the entire way. When it came time to find my new home, he listened to what I wanted and helped me find the perfect fit. I’m so grateful for his dedication and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy realtor.

I am so grateful that I was referred to Damian, this was a challenging situation and Damian handled it with honesty, kindness and professionalism!
I always felt like he had my back and best interest at heart. He gave me confidence and hope when I was feeling hopeless! And now I am so grateful to him. Damian is a really good person and I will always refer to him with any real estate questions and I am always available for a Five Star ⭐️ reference. I started with another realtor and Damian was very helpful, even before I was his client!! Trust is a big deal and he has mine!! Thank you Damian!

Damian was awesome to work with. Communication was great, and his knowledge with our area and previous contractor experience was a huge help to making the right decision. He was honest and always had our best interest at heart. Damian was recommended to me by someone in the industry, and he could not have been a better fit!

Damian is a great real estate agent. During past 18 monthes or so of our searching homes he was very patient answering our questions or finding answers for us. He was flexible in time to schedule house showing based on our availability, and made recommendations to us. We just bought our ideal home and would highly recommend Damian to represent you in buying your home.

Damian was recommended by a friend. Damian is a full service realtor who is very professional and personable. Damian provided me with support and guidance to obtain the best outcome. My home sold in record time! Damian never failed to immediately respond to any questions or concerns I had. He helped with coordinating appointments, staging, inspections, and movers. I highly recommend Damian to anyone considering buying or selling their home!

Brendan was great throughout the whole home buying process. He was great about answering all our questions and if he didn't have the answer he researched and applied he efforts in gathering the information so we were well informed. Brendan connected us with a wonderful finance team and together the entire home buying process was a breeze. Thank you Brendan!

Bredan Delaney helped me tremendously with the purchase of my house. I was a first-time buyer, so I knew little about the home buying process. Brendan explained things in detail and in a language, I could understand, instead of all that technical speak!
He is a very kind, respectful person, with the patience of a saint!
Whenever I had questions, he got back to me right away. We made a plan as to how I could purchase the house, taking it one step at a time, until it closed.
Thank you so much Brendan you made my dream come true!
Of course I will recommend Brendan Delaney!

Damien listened to my needs. He was always available when I had questions. He would return my calls in a timely manner. He gave me good direction and feedback. When I found a house that I wanted, he was willing to go the extra mile for me. Example: taking measurements and letting me know the condition of the house. Since he was a contractor previously, his help was very important. Since I live out of state currently this information was very valuable for me to make the right decision in purchasing this house. I would highly recommend Damien for anyone who would like to work with a true professional.

Damian was recommended to us by my son who had a great experience working with him. We live out of state which can be more challenging, but Damian really got to know us and what we were looking for. He is a great communicator, gave us solid advice and rose to every occasion. He was honest, professional and always on time. We highly recommend Damian - 100%.

We used Damian to help us sell a home we renovated. He was attentive, honest and a great communicator from the very beginning. He was patient with all our questions, was always concise and always explained the reason for his responses. When we were about to go off track, Damian very patiently steered us back on the right tracks.

Damian is a real Real Estate Professional. He managed the sale of our home in a most exceptional way. He was knowledgeable and quick to respond to questions and situations, helping us through the difficult transition of selling and moving. We're so glad to have had him in our corner. He's a "keeper" reference!

Damian handled the sale of my house very professionally. He is experienced and knowledgable in all aspects of real estate, and I felt comfortable letting him handle all the details of selling my home. He assured me the house would be sold in a weekend and it was. While there were a few bumps along the way he took care of all the details. I feel that all aspects of the sale were handled with the greatest of care.Thank you so very much Damian!

I highly recommend Damian Bautista!..Going through a sometimes difficult transition of selling my home and finding a replacement home with many contingents, Damian always made himself available to me to answer my many questions and when he didn’t have an immediate answer he reached out to others and got back to me quickly. Even after closing he continues to be helpful!

I will recommend Damian to anyone I know looking to buy or sell a house. Damian's tried and true strategy was a winning solution for selling my house quickly and at a great price. He's extremely knowledgeable, having worked two sides of the industry in both construction and real estate. He's very responsive in an business that requires hustle and is a master when it comes to negotiation and strategizing. 11/10 would recommend.

Appreciated Damian’s honesty, very quick responses, calm approach and experience.

Damian was fantastic and got things done and sold for us quickly. He even sat down to explain things to my grandmother so she would be comfortable with the whole process. He really went out of his way. We moved my grandmother to an assisted living complex so selling was a huge priority. He was even able to sell the house before going to market. He is very professional and made this the smoothest transaction I have ever had selling or buying a home. I would recommend him to anyone.

Damian was my Realtor who helped me sell my Auburn home in an expeditious manner. He had a specific strategy and it worked because of his thorough knowledge of Auburn and his expansive real estate background. This move was an extraordinary one since we moved to South Carolina but it encompassed four states. Damian provided us a Realtor in SC as our contact to find our new home out there. Damian was professional, on time, answered all of our questions, gave us excellent advice on home repairs since he was a former General Contractor, friendly, honest, and a great listener. We would highly recommend Damian for your future real estate needs.

What impresses me most about Denielle Davis is her ability to read people very well as they tour a home. She gives them time and space to explore on their own paying close attention to what catches their eye and leads them to linger. It's at that moment that she uses her subtle sense of timing to add a brief mention of for example an appliance's capabilities that aren't obvious at first glance. Sometimes she puts people at ease by adding a little music low from a small speaker to creates an environment in which private comments may be kept as such. Each time she's gathered names and contact details that help us follow up with visitors afterward. These follow-up calls are invaluable for I've learned that the agent who reaches out prompts an offer in many instances.

As a first time buyer Damian’s guidance was critical . From helping to understand all the information in the paperwork and negotiating price and sending contacts of people I needed to get ahold of and recommending quality companies to get the work done that I needed to meet the contingencies in the escrow agreement . Damian even drove out to my property the day I had an engineer and county inspector for the perc and mantle test to see where we could place a septic before buying just to make sure everything went smooth for us, and it wasn’t nearby . All around great guy to have on your side . Knowledgeable and friendly and the communication was next level.
