Chris Fajkos Real Estate - Truckee, California

Kristen Charlson

Chris is the epitome of what you want in a real estate professional. Our journey with him began a year ago when we inquired about a Trulia listing, and his responsiveness was immediate. He took us to see properties in Old Greenwood and Gray's Crossing that same day. While those initial homes weren't the perfect fit, what impressed us most was how Chris took the time to truly understand what we were looking for in a second home.

What sets Chris apart is his consistent, thoughtful approach to staying connected. His weekly "Sunday Scrolls" property updates and quarterly check-in calls were never pushy - instead, they showed his genuine interest in our journey and timing. He listened carefully to our thoughts and kept us informed about market opportunities without any pressure.

When our ski lease unexpectedly fell through, Chris was our first call. His response was incredible - within 48 hours, he had researched and compiled a perfectly curated list of properties that matched our criteria. His deep market knowledge, thorough research, and hands-on approach made our stressful situation - smooth and efficient.

Chris's combination of market expertise, proactive communication, and patient, long-term perspective is truly exceptional. He wasn't just looking for a quick sale - he was committed to helping us find the right property, right insurance broker, right lender at the right time. If you're looking for a real estate agent who will invest in understanding your needs and be there for the long haul, Chris is your person. We couldn't be happier with our experience and highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell in the area.

We love Chris! He supported us in selling our house during a very stressful time. He was approachable, down to earth, easygoing, and VERY competent. He listened to what we wanted, recommended how to proceed, and patiently coached us through all the steps. He kept us regularly informed and accountable for the tasks we needed to complete without pressuring us. I especially appreciated his responsiveness and the time he took to answer all our questions. The entire process felt smooth, supportive, and efficient. Chris stands out as a kind and honest person you can trust. I highly recommend him as a top local realtor.

Chris provided us an honest and direct assessment of each area we were looking at. He accompanied us on a whirlwind weekend of house tours. We appreciated his candor patience with our many questions. He went out of his way to get us passes to the pavilion at Old Greenwood which helped us get a better feel for the community before we purchased our home there. We always felt like Chris had our best interest in mind.

Exceptional Experience with Chris in Securing North Lake Tahoe Airbnb Property

I recently had the pleasure of working with Chris to secure an Airbnb property in North Lake Tahoe. Throughout the process, Chris demonstrated exceptional professionalism and a thorough approach. He took the time to understand our specific requirements and carefully shortlisted properties that met our needs.

However, what truly set Chris apart was his pivotal role in ensuring the deal went through despite some unexpected delays and hiccups in the mortgage process. When we faced challenges in meeting the original committed timeline, Chris stepped in and effectively communicated with the seller, keeping them informed of the situation and our efforts.
I highly recommend Chris for any real estate needs in the Truckee/Tahoe area. His expertise, professionalism, and dedication to his clients are truly exceptional.

Chris goes the extra mile to ensure his clients have the knowledge needed to make an informed decision with regards to real estate. I highly recommend working with Chris when buying or selling a home in Tahoe.

Chris was a pleasure to partner with on our home purchase in Truckee. His knowledge of the Tahoe/ Truckee market is exceptional and his patience in dealing with all of the issues that come with purchasing a property greatly reduced all anxiety that comes with not knowing too much about this real estate market. Of particular note during our home buying process was Chris' ability to navigate the complexities of the 1031 exchange process. Chris has my highest recommendation for purchasing and/or selling in the Tahoe/ Truckee market.

Sara Fitzpatrick

Chris has been a friend for years and when our family needed a local realtor to help with a complicated 1031 exchange, we knew he would do a great job! Chris helped us navigate the process of purchasing our dream property in Truckee while we were simultaneously selling our property in San Diego. Chris was always helpful and professional while communicating with the many people involved in this transaction during a long escrow. He is very quick to respond to any questions and was so easy to work with. Chris has a large local professional network, which became invaluable to us when we had a last-minute issue with obtaining insurance on the home we were purchasing.
Thank you, Chris! We will always be grateful for you, your local expertise, network of associates, and all the help with purchasing our dream home!
