Sam and Elena are great. Very thorough going through the home inspection report, checking for any outstanding permits, always advocating to get the best deal for me. I am so greatful for them.

I have purchased two homes with Sam and Elena at Golovey Real estate. They are both very responsive and helpful throughout the whole home buying process. I would highly recommend anyone to contact Golovey Real estate when looking to buy a home in the Sacramento Metro area.

I just recently worked with Sam and Elena to sell my home in Folsom CA. Sam came recommended from a dear friend who had a wonderful home purchasing experience with Sam and Elena.

It was an effortless process to work with Sam in selling my home. He and his team put together beautiful material for potential buyers; Colorful high quality brochures, YouTube videos of the wonderful Folsom community with the home as a center piece, and Instagram posts. It was so incredible to see how much care and time was put into selling my home.

Sam flourishes in sharing his knowledge of the communities and it's specialties as well as understanding the changing dynamics of the real estate market.

He worked with me in every way to make the sale right for both myself and the buyer. I would recommend working with Sam and Elena as a someone who needs to sell their home as well as someone who want to purchase a home.

May whoever reads this enjoy the process.

I had a great experience selling my home in Sacramento with Sam and Elena. My home sat on the market for 4 months with little interest while using another realtor before I decided to switch to Golovey Real Estate. They were able to get my house sold in 2 months and were a pleasure to work with. The transaction went smooth and they communicated our strategy every step of the way. I highly recommend Golovey Real Estate if you are selling or buying a home in Sacramento, Roseville, Folsom, or Rocklin. They are in tune with the Sacramento Metropolitan area and were amazing.

We recently bought a new construction home in Roseville, CA and working with Sam and Elena through this process was a great experience.

Once we selected a builder and lot, they made sure every detail was taken care of, right from reviewing disclosures, providing guidance on documentation required, builder follow up throughout the process, and providing checklists for the final walkthrough to ensure we got the best quality possible. We are very pleased with our home!

This being our first home, the process could easily have been overwhelming but Sam and Elena made sure it was a smooth experience. I would highly recommend Golovey Real Estate to anyone looking to purchase a home in the Sacramento area!

We recently bought a new construction home in Roseville, CA and the experience working with Sam was amazing. Sam was very professional throughout the buying process, right from walking model homes and selecting a builder until closing.

Sam's knowledge of the Sacramento area, real estate in general and the processes involved in buying came through in every interaction with him. He was very patient with the myriad questions I threw at him, and took the time to answer all of them. He followed up with the builder throughout the construction and closing process.

Sam makes it a point to understand your needs thoroughly and provides advice and guidance with your interests in mind. I truly appreciate that.

I would work with Sam again in a heartbeat, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking to purchase a home in the Sacramento area!

We recently bought our first home in Elk Grove and Sam was such a great support throughout the process. From helping us select the right builder and neighborhood to answering our many questions and keeping us updated during inspections, he was with us every step of the way.

We recently worked with Sam and Elena on selling our home, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. Having previously purchased our home with Sam’s help, we already knew the level of professionalism and dedication he brings. Throughout our time as homeowners, Sam was always just a call away—whether we needed reliable referrals for repairs, landscaping, or other services, he was quick to respond and always provided trusted recommendations.

When it came time to sell, choosing Sam and Elena was an easy decision. The current market isn’t simple, but their strategy and persistence made all the difference. They hosted multiple open houses that drew strong interest, and even after those events, they continued to market our property actively to maintain steady traffic. Their commitment ensured our home stayed visible, and in the end, we were able to secure a great price.

What really impressed us was not just their knowledge of the market, but their genuine care throughout the process. We always felt that our best interests were at the forefront. Sam and Elena’s teamwork, attention to detail, and constant communication gave us complete confidence.

We are truly grateful for everything they did to make the sale successful. If you’re looking for agents who go above and beyond—whether you’re buying or selling—we couldn’t recommend Sam and Elena more highly.
