Client review

Davis prepped and sold our home in record time! Our experience with Davis Bartels was nothing short of spectacular. He was truly a professional in every sense of the word. He walked us through each process every step of the way. He really was 100% a "one stop shop". He delivered everything that he said he could and more. If I could give him 10 stars I would. He is my "Go to" realtor for anything that I do in the area from now on. I would recommend him to my family and friends without any hesitation. Thank you again Davis!

Client review

We listed our home in January 2025 and did not close until 2026. Almost a year and a half. If you want to understand why we would still give Davis Bartels and Tatum Teel five stars after that experience, keep reading. When we first listed, the offers came in fast. The problem was our HOA. Rising insurance costs had driven our community's deductible so high that lenders were refusing to finance buyers. Solid offers kept falling through, not because of our home, not because of our agents, but because of a structural issue nobody could have predicted. Davis and Tatum were just as blindsided as we were, and they were honest about it. They never pretended to have answers they did not have. By June, a new HOA board president had renegotiated the insurance situation and our community was warrantable again. But by then the market had shifted. The momentum we had in January was gone. Offers dried up. We asked Davis and Tatum repeatedly what else we could do and every time the answer was the same. Our house was immaculate, well-maintained, loaded with upgrades, and in a prime location within the community. We had done everything right. The market just was not cooperating. In October we made the decision to pull the listing and re-launch in March 2026. One open house later, we had the offer we eventually accepted. Through all of it, the HOA chaos, the market cooldown, the long wait, the second launch, Davis and Tatum never stopped hustling. They stayed positive when we were frustrated, kept us grounded when we needed it, and were genuinely a delight to work with under circumstances that would have tested anyone's patience. We will not work with anyone else going forward. If you are buying or selling, call them. Simple as that.

Davis and his real estate team were very professional from the first introduction to list our home for sale to the close of escrow. They made our real estate process seamless and kept us informed throughout the complete experience. Thank you, Davis and your team for your advice, expertise and professionalism throughout the sale of our home. Its appreciated!

Client review

Davis did an outstanding job helping me find the house I was looking for. He is very knowledgeable and easy to work with. He helped explain the whole process to me. He and his team are wonderful and I highly recommend them.

Client review

Working with Davis Bartels to sell our home in Westlake Village and buy our new home in Thousand Oaks was the best real estate experience weve ever had. If you are looking for a top Thousand Oaks real estate agent, a Westlake Village realtor who actually delivers, or someone who truly knows the Conejo Valley housing market, Davis is the person you want on your side. From day one he was incredibly communicative, professional, and strategic. Davis guided us through pricing, staging, marketing, and negotiations with a level of expertise that made the entire selling process smooth and stress-free. Our home in Westlake Village sold quickly and for top dollar, exactly as he predicted. When it came time to buy, Davis helped us find the perfect property in Thousand Oaks. He knows every neighborhood, school district, and market trend, and he made sure we were seeing the best options before anyone else. His negotiation skills were outstanding and ultimately helped us secure the home at a fantastic price. What makes Davis stand out is that he truly cares. He communicates constantly, explains everything clearly, and makes you feel like youre his only client. He goes above and beyond with marketing, video, photography, and even off-market opportunities. Its no surprise hes consistently ranked as one of the best real estate agents in Thousand Oaks and Westlake Village. If you need a realtor who sells homes for the most money, who understands the local Ventura County and Conejo Valley real estate markets, and who will also help you buy the right home with confidence, I cant recommend Davis Bartels enough. We will never use anyone else.

Client review

Davis and team were amazing! They helped sell our property that had many views but sat on the market for few months. With Davis and teams creativity, energy and enthusiasm, we closed on the property little over a month since listing. We received superb service every step of the process. I highly recommend Davis and team. We will definitely be working with on future transactions.

Client review

Davis and his team were seamless throughout the whole process of our home search. They were always available for questions and available to be on-site when we needed them, especially during the Escrow period while we were abroad. They gave great honest recommendations and really know their stuff when it comes to the finer details of a house. Thank you for helping us buy our first home and making the process so seamless!

Client review

Davis Bartels and his team were absolutely amazing! If you are going to buy a house or you are thinking about it, you definitely should reach out to Davis. Not only did Davis negotiate in such a skilled way on our behalf, his guidance was spot on. I just bought my dream home with my partner at the age of 64. I truly thought I was not going to be able to find a house that met both of our needs. We have come together later on in life and we are very clear about what we want. On a handful of occasions I told Davis, aEURoeI dont know if well be able to find a house that accommodates all our needsaEURoe Davis never wavered in his thinking and optimism. You will be in great hands.

Client review

Davis Bartels and Matt Larsen did a great job helping me sell a very unique property and also also buy my next place. The listing had a lot nuance and could've easily become complicated, but they handed it smoothly from start to finish. They were professional, communicative, and really understood how to navigate the details without making the process feel overwhelming. I supported throughout both transactions, and everything came together better than I expected. I would definitely recommend working with them.

Client review

I know my home buying experience would not have been the same without the Davis Bartels and his team. Davis, Shannon and Chloe were the three that my husband and I closely worked with. Together as a team, they gave us the ultimate experience as first time homebuyers. They guided us every step of the way, answered all of our questions and made what seemed to be such a scary and daunting process less scary. Their knowledge, excellent insight to properties in the area and professionalism is what really sets them apart from the rest. From their willingness to meet up in person with us on multiple occasions, house showings, and speedy replies to all forms of communication (text, email, calls, messages on social media) in my experience really proved that they value client satisfaction and make it a top priority. All three of them made sure to understand our needs and preferences of what we were looking for in a home, the price range that fit our budget, and our vision for how we wanted everything to unfold. If this helps anyone, I would say that my husband and I are definitely on the pickier side and NOT ONCE, did we ever feel pressured to make a decision on anything. Davis Bartels is legit, the KING of negotiation. Our whole experience with them was seamless and I still pinch myself because it still feels so surreal. Our experience is one that every home buyer deserves. Personable, approachable and genuine from top to bottom. Davis, Shannon, and Chloe each of had different tasks/ roles, all of which were needed to make our experience what it was. Whether your ready to sell your house and firm on your price, they will make it happen. If your on the lookout for a perfect home within a certain price range, they've got you. But most importanly, if you're looking for a team that really cares but most importantly KNOWS HOW TO GET THE JOB DONE, look no further. Davis Bartels and his team are the people you want on your side. They are without question the best of the best in this industry and I would highly reccomend!!!!

Client review

I can recommend Davis with the highest regard. He helped us with our recent home purchase and he went out of his way to make it happen, so we could move into our dream house. He is fantastic to deal with, very knowledgable, helpful and always available to solve any problems.

Client review

We had an exceptional experience working with Davis and his team from start to finish. Davis team sold our house after just one open house weekend, bringing in multiple offers over the asking price. On top of that, Davis helped us find a reputable realtor out of state and ensured a quick close, allowing us to relocate in just one month. From the moment we met Davis, we knew we had made the right choice. He laid out a clear plan and delivered on every promise. The home selling process was incredibly organized and efficient. Davis made sure we always felt in control, while never letting us stray from our goals. We couldnt be happier with how things turned out and are grateful for the experience we had working with Davis and his team. Highly recommend!

Client review

Working with Davis to sell our townhouse was nothing short of a game changer. From the moment we met, we knew we were in the right hands. Davis is a true professional who exceeded our expectations. After a failed attempt to sell our townhouse in 2021 with a different agency, we were hesitant to try again. But Davis reassured us, and his confidence was backed by action. He promised to sell our townhouse within a month, and thats exactly what he did! With a tight timeline due to our move overseas, we needed a quick sale and maximum profitaEUR"and Davis made both of those things happen. His communication, market expertise, and constant updates kept us confident throughout the process. He took the time to get to know our specific needs and used his expertise and strategic approach to find the perfect buyer.The difference between our previous experience and working with Davis was night and day. He genuinely cared about our needs and went above and beyond to get the best result. We also appreciated his wonderful team, who were equally kind and professional. We highly recommend Davis to anyone looking for an honest, reliable agent!

Client review

We had the pleasure to work with Davis after going through a relocation for work. He was incredibly helpful, was thorough in communicating back and forth with us, and worked incredibly hard to ensure we were satisfied with the sale of our Condo. I cannot recommend Davis enough to anyone who is looking to sell their property - he truly is a one of a kind in the industry

Client review

Thanks so much, Davis! After inheriting a rental condo in Westlake Village, Davis and team guided the family through a potentially sticky situation with flying colors. This was a long-distance sale, with none of us closer than 450 miles away. Davis helped the tenant relocate, then advised us on preparing the property for sale. With good MLS presentation and Open Houses the condo was sold for a fair price within 1.5 months, even with a couple of contingency hurdles. Davis knew how to navigate, and always kept us informed. Best of all, everyone in the family is still on friendly terms. Nicely done!

Client review

Davis and his team were so great to work with. We wanted to sell our house fast and he was able to get us an offer 25k over asking price with in days of it being listed. He made the process very easy and stress free. Super professional and top notch, so glad we chose him to sell our house!

Client review

Davis and his team were so wonderful to work with. They were always available, whether it be to see a new property, chat about a home or interest rates, or answer any questions, they were always there. What really sets Davis and his team apart are how much they know the Conejo Valley area and the great connections they have within the community. We are so thrilled to have chosen them to work with because with their help we were finally able to find our home after searching for so many years. We could not be happier and will recommend them to anyone looking for a home. Thank you again, Davis!

Client review

Davis and team were amazing! They went out of their way to make everything easy and seamless, which is wonderful when you already stressed! Davis called me with any changes, and made sure things were done in plenty of time. All my requests were met, and he always let me know what was going on no matter how insignificant it may have been. Communication was wonderful, I never had to wait for any answers. He was on top of everything! I really cannot recommend them enough!

Client review

We were so nervous about entering the housing market and all the daunting tasks ahead of us but Davis Bartels Realtor made the process so smooth, simple and stress free for us! They not only found us our dream home at the perfect price point but also helped us prep and sell our old house. I'd recommend them to anyone and everyone!

Client review

Davis and his team got me multiple offers after an open house over the weekend. We sold for an offer above asking price. Watch his videos about making small improvements to increase your curb appeal. He knows his craft well. When you get Davis in your corner you also have his team. His assistant, Robin treated us like she was our assistant. They were always available for simple or complex questions. Davis is savvy and hes a work horse. With all the other deals hes managing he made me feel like I was his only client. His confidence in team made it easy to trust the plan. He orchestrated a seemless process and all meetings were at home at a time that worked best for me and my family. He's a good guy and has a sincere heart. He's got love for public servants and first responders. I'm confident I made the right choice working with Davis and I know there's no one better. You'll have the upper hand with Davis in your corner.

Client review

We recently had the pleasure of working with Davis. He went above and beyond, exceeding all of my expectations in this crazy market. From the start, Davis made sure he knew exactly what our home goals were and was relentless at pursuing them. Davis worked around the clock helping us find the perfect home. Not only did Davis help us find THE perfect home, he also sold the home we had lived in for the last 20 years. He and his team made the process so easy. Our home sold quickly and above asking price, it was truly impressive! I had heard many great things about Davis and his team from friends who have worked with him in the past. I am amazed by how hard Davis worked for us. He did not disappoint!

Client review

TESTIMONAL aEUR" A few words of reflection and support. During a very emotional chapter in our lives, we needed to address the sale of our recently deceased mother and brothers home, a home that was in our family for over 60 years. We reached over to Davis Bartels to help direct and guide us through the least difficult manner to sell the property. Davis and his team were superior in personal professional support, attention to details and commitment. We were able to review a series of options and he helped us choose the most optimum outcome. Davis, I truly thank you and your team for your understanding, attentiveness, and support. We would highly recommend Davis and his team to any upcoming client for their home sells and purchases. You are getting the upmost personal and professional representatives for your real estate needs. Thank you Steven Damiani

Client review

Davis Bartels, Robin, and his well-honed crew of real estate experts are a great team for real estate in Ventura County. They were easy to talk to, had a thorough understanding of houses, and the local market, all during the holiday season. Davis would perform a methodical inspection, looking for signs of problems and commenting on the quality of construction. This was very helpful for first time home buyers who are new to the world of real estate and single-family residences. Bartels handled the negotiations very well and we ended up getting our first home cheaper than the listing price, which we think is a great accomplishment in SoCal. In the end, we found the property that worked perfectly for us and we will be using this crew in the future should we be so fortunate. Thank you once again for your help, assistance, and patience getting us through the myriad of real estate loops n hoops, and getting us our first house!

Client review

Davis and his team were awesome to work with! Davis is very knowledgeable about the local market and was able to get us into showings super quickly and provided excellent advice on how to proceed with our offers. Robin was super helpful throughout the entire process too. They made the entire process of home buying a breeze and were always available to answer any questions or get paperwork completed as needed. We felt completely supported and like everything went so smoothly. We are so grateful to have worked with Davis and his team! Highly recommended!

Client review

Davis did an amazing job working with us in finding the perfect home. As first time home buyers, there was a lot of fear heading into the process, as we didn't know w hole bunch. From the start he was very professional, and actually LISTENED to us, remembering what we were looking for exactly, price points, location, etc. Almost always available if we had any questions whatsoever, and also had great referrals for various things that may or not have needed to be fixed or updated. He took most of the stress out of buying a home, letting us know how the process would work, all the way up until closing. We were actually able to close earlier than expected, and our house appraised OVER what it initially was valued at. Not only is he a great realtor, but genuine human being as well. Doing what he can to be of service. Highly recommend.

Client review

I personally work with Davis on a regular basis as he is one of my favorite clients and someone who I also consider a great friend. Extremely trustworthy, knowledgable and personable are just the tip of the iceberg when describing him as a professional and as an individual. If you are in the market to buy or list a home in the Conejo Valley or Los Angeles (and beyond), I couldn't recommend him (and his team) more. I have referred multiple close friends his way for their real estate needs and he has delivered every time. He has also helped me find a rental for myself and I couldn't be happier with his support in getting the perfect place for my needs and helping negotiate the price I needed.

Client review

Davis and his team did a great job finding the right home for my family. I am a professional real estate broker who decided it was time to work with another professional given the area my family wanted to be in. Davis's industry experience and local knowledge manifested in the small details. It can make or break a deal instantaneously. There are certain milestones in a real estate deal which require the right combination of risk and reward to which Davis demonstrated competently. Shout out to Robin and Max for their service during our purchase.

Client review

Client review

We were first time home buyers and Davis made things easy for us. He was very accommodating of our specific needs and was very helpful in explaining to us the current housing market. He was available any time (even late!) and joined us frequently on the thousands of homes we toured homes.He never pressured us to close on a deal nor tried to persuade us to offer higher than what we were comfortable with. He gave us honest feedback when deciding on what to offer and used his good relationships with other realtors to push our offer forward.I will definitely go back to him for our future home purchases. His friendly and honest attitude definitely made our home buying experience enjoyable.

Client review

What a superbly easy real estate sale Davis pulled off. Quick, painless, & professional are the best adjectives to describe what it was like working with him and his entire team. From our 1st meeting to photography to showings to sale to a super-fast closing, the whole process was smooth. Just the right amount of hand-holding and advice. All in all, wonderful. If we were looking to buy in SoCal after this sale, Davis would obviously be first choice.

Client review

Davis was extremely helpful and attentive throughout the process from the day we started looking for a home until the day we got our keys. I am a first time home buyer and he was able to answer all my questions and give referrals for all work that needed to be done once we got the house. Highly recommend using Davis as your realtor.-Max Gilliam

Client review

Selling a home isn?t nearly as fun as buying one but Davis did an exceptional job at making it a painless process. From start to finish Davis and his team took care of everything we needed so we were able to focus on our cross country move. He?s top-of-the-trade knowledgeable, available around the clock, and honest. With Davis?s help our house sold for significantly over asking, all in a seamless transaction right on our timeline. We?re now on the other side of the country but Davis will always be our go-to for all things real estate and our friend! Thank you Davis!

Client review

Davis and his team delivered everything as advertised. My wife and I were never left wondering what to expect, as they communicated everything in a timely and professional manner. Highly recommended team of professionals.

Client review

Working with Davis was a real pleasure. We didnt know any real estate agent in the area so we decided to meet with one that was suggested by Zillow. After our first meeting Davis made a really good impression on us. He was very friendly, objective and honest and he stayed that way for the whole process of buying a house. He knew the area very well and seemed to have our best interest in his heart. Never pushed us to do anything, was available always when we needed him. His team did the great job and buying a house was a really nice experience for us. We highly recommend working with Davis :)

Client review

I just completed my 3rd and 4th real estate transactions with Davis and I was once again blown away with his service. Buying and selling a house at the same time in this insane market seemed almost impossible, but Davis and his amazing team made it incredibly easy for us. We sold our house at way over asking price, highest in our neighborhood to date. Davis was also able to find our dream home for us and get us in at an incredible price. Not only is he extremely well versed in the real estate world, but the network he has formed within the real estate community is astounding and in this market that is something that should not be overlooked. I know we would not be where we are at without Davis and his team.

Client review

Davis and his team have been nothing but professional and on top of everything since the beginning. Davis has made this entire process so stress free and it?s truly been a white glove experience. He answered every phone call at whatever time and walked me thru things that I didn?t understand. He sold my house for well over asking. I can?t recommend him enough in any real estate transaction. Whether you?re selling or buying Davis and his team are the BEST in town!!! Highly highly recommend ??

Client review

Working with Davis and his team was absolutely great from start to finish.It has been awhile since we bought a new home and the process was seamless. We found our home in a few weeks for price we wanted even in a sellers market, due to Davis knowledge of the market and his many contacts. If you are looking for a home in this area, you should choose Davis. You will be glad that you did!Ken and Leslie Lueders

Client review

Davis is a professional in every sense of the word. We have been on both sides of the transaction with purchasing and selling using Davis as our realtor. He sold 2 homes for me this year with fantastic results. The first was $70,000 over asking and the last was for full asking. He is responsive and has expert social skills. I cannot recommend him more highly. I wish I had more homes to sell! My entire family will use his as we all transition out of the state.

Client review

This week my parents family home will close escrow after being on the market since December 12. Davis Bartels began conversation with me about my property more than a year ago just prior to the Covid outbreak. We conversed many times. He demonstrated great knowledge, professionalism and patience. I was conflicted about selling my parents home and it was quite emotional. I never felt pressure or urgency to sign with him. Davis guided me through every step of the process and always demonstrated willingness to work and speak to the concerns I had . I would absolutely recommend Davis and will use him again.

Client review

Davis (and Matt) are an incredible team. We would highly recommend them for your home marketing needs. Davis throughout the process was highly responsive and answered any thought or question we had almost immediately. He was highly accessible and spent a good amount of time with us. Ive personally known Davis since he was in middle school and very proud of the father, husband and man he has become. Very professional and has the highest integrity.

Client review

Davis and Matt are the best! We asked to see a house they listed, and immediately liked them. That house was not for us, but that started a great relationship and journey of finding the perfect house for us. We did not know the area at all, so they took the time to show us around and explain about the different areas. Their patience was amazing - showing us house after house until they found the perfect one. They are professional, knowledgeable and FUN! This can be a stressful process, but their calm, positive nature made it a very enjoyable experience. We love our new Camarillo house and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for the perfect house in Thousand Oaks, Camarillo and beyond.

Client review

This was our second opportunity to work with Davis and he once again blew us away. His professionalism and attention to detail is unmatched. He is guaranteed to exceed you expectations!!

Client review

We met Davis 3 years ago when my daughter and her husband purchased a townhome and his company was representing the seller. We were so taken by his demeanor and knowledge that when my daughter decided to purchase the property she used him as her agent. He was able to negotiate a great price and he made the buying process as stress free as it can be.The whole experience was so positive I knew that whenever I sold a home I would call him to represent us as sellers. We recently had a rental in the Westhills area that we decided to sell. His marketing skills are excellent and he made the selling process as easy as it can be. With just his targeted pre-market roll out and signage before we even hit the MLS we had 6 offers, with the accepted offer being $80,000 over asking. We were thrilled. He could not have been a better advocate for us. I trust him implicitly. We hope to be putting another home on the market soon and of course he will be our guy. My daughter and sister are also thinking of using him. He is the type of person that does not sweat the small stuff and just removes so much stress from the situation. He is an awesome realtor but more than anything he is just a wonderful person with a very nice way about him.
