Top Small Team in CA
Extraordinary properties deserve more than market expertise. From the first conversation through closing and long after, we bring the discretion, precision, and genuine care that our clients expect and rarely find.
Doug and Rachel Swardstrom built the Swardstrom Group on a simple belief: that real estate, at its best, is never about the transaction. It's about the client it serves. Before real estate, Doug oversaw more than a billion dollars in real estate equity as CEO of an asset management firm, and Rachel spent years mastering strategy and negotiation at two Fortune 500 companies — training grounds, as it turned out, for the work they were meant to do together.
Partners in life long before being partners in business, they've built one of Coldwell Banker Realty's #1 Small Team in Newport Beach on a standard that hasn't changed since day one: know the client, understand the goal, and treat every part of the process like it matters. Because it does.

Doug, Rachel, and TEAM Swardstrom are simply put "The Best"! In today's business world, it is hard, if not impossible, to find individuals who take pride in what they do and stand behind what they say. This dynamic duo and their TEAM do both. I would recommend them at the highest level. Their market knowledge, client roster, and marketing skills were put to work and yielded the highest price per sq. ft., with MULTIPLE offers over the asking price for my home. THANK YOU both for an amazing experience! Much Success,

We are so glad and grateful to have been able to work with the Swardstrom Group in purchasing our first home together! We wanted to select a team who was very familiar with the Irvine area and this group was the perfect choice. Rachel treated us so kindly and like family ever since the beginning of our home search. They certainly lightened the load and allowed us to focus on our work and family.

Our purchase wasn't easy, given we were purchasing a property hours away AND doing an exchange AND doing it all virtually AND completing the purchase sight-unseen. That said, we were put at ease, given Rachel and Doug's extensive network and ability to put us in touch with only top-notch contacts and vendors, making for a seamless process. Cannot recommend highly enough!!

We couldn't be happier with our decision to work with Rachel and Doug Swardstrom and their exceptional team as our listing agents for the sale of our home in Irvine. From the first meeting, Rachel and Doug impressed us with their preparation and knowledge, answering all of our questions and providing expert guidance on pricing and renovation options that fit within our budget. Their professionalism and expertise saved us a lot of time and energy, as they expertly managed the coordination with contractors and kept us informed every step of the way. They hosted a fantastic open house and within just two days, we received a great offer. Rachel, Doug, Sandra, and Michelle were a true pleasure to work with, always displaying attention to detail and fantastic communication skills. Even after accepting an offer, they continued to provide excellent support and kept us informed throughout the entire transaction process. We highly recommend the Swardstrom team to anyone in need of a top-notch real estate agent. They made our home selling experience effortless and enjoyable, and we couldn't be more grateful.

We were thrilled to partner with the Swardstrom Group again on the purchase of our dream home. They not only successfully sold our last home for record price in July but they also found the perfect home in the perfect location for our family 2 months later. We had the best experience working with Rachel, Doug and Chris and their team. They made the buyer process fun, easy and personalized. They took the time to listen to what we were hoping for in a new home, location and community and found us exactly what we were dreaming of. They specialize in white glove service by providing special touches like gifting us with a beautiful housewarming basket at our key exchange and offering to host a popsicle party to introduce us to our new neighbors. We are so grateful to them for our new home!

They assisted us with the sale of our homes twice in Irvine Ca and can say with confidence that Doug and Rachel are the best agents we have ever used. Doug and Rachel have the qualities that make them an extremely successful and effective agents. We can’t say enough about their professionalism and knowledge within the industry. They have high integrity and are very conscientious and tenacious, always keeping the client's best interests in mind. One of the qualities we respected the most was their no- nonsense style, they get to the point quickly yet professionally, always respecting the client's time and do a great job of listening to their client’s needs. They are extremely responsive to questions, often responding immediately to our late night emails after midnight. They show great attention to the details enabling the transaction to get done. We have the highest level of confidence in them. Our transaction went very smoothly and we closed on time. As mentioned above, they represented us on the sale of our homes twice and we would not hesitate to have them as our listing agent again. Home sale processes can sometimes be complex but we have the highest level of confidence in Doug and Rachel and feel they would be able to properly assess any situation and figure out an effective solution. In any future transactions, we will only have Doug and Rachel represent us.

Rachel and Doug Swardstrom of The Swardstrom Group did an amazing job helping us sell our home in 2019. But before I get into what they did, I think it's important for you to know that these two (and their associates) are kind people, they are very patient with however many questions you have the are the kind of friends you'd want to have over for dinner. On the business side of things, Rachel and Doug took the time to research our neighborhood, share relevant information on selling strategies and gave us prudent advice in the sales process and timing. They made sure they were available to us, meeting with us on many occasions and staying connected via phone calls, emails and texts. Rachel and Doug did a great job getting our house on the market with professional staging, photography, videos and on the most relevant websites to help drive interest. The first week they did a grand opening party showing which was lively and fun, followed by open houses and many private showings while still taking into consideration the disruption it can be in their clients lives. All their hard work resulted in an offer in the first month on the market and a strong close very close to our asking price. My wife and I can't recommend them highly enough!

I would most highly recommend Rachel and Doug Swardstrom to anyone looking for assistance with buying or selling a home. Rachel and Doug were exceptionally knowledgeable, professional, helpful, and provided attention to the most minor details when selling our home (down to helping with last minute cleaning and managing all of our pets for showings and open houses). They utilized all of their resources in our local community to spread the word about our home, and as a result, our home sold very quickly, and at the best price per square foot for our plan. Rachel and Doug were always available and responsive for any questions or concerns. They helped us to find an appropriate rental home, and are now also helping us in purchasing a new home. In the future, we would without a doubt return to Rachel and Doug for any further real estate assistance that we needed. They have made the process as stress free as it possibly could have been. As a result, we highly and without any reservation would recommend them to anyone looking for a realtor.

Rachel and Doug Swardstrom came highly recommended to us from a “friend of a friend” and we knew the minute we met with them that they would sell our home and they did within a couple of weeks. We sold during what I think is a difficult time due to Covid and no open houses but that wasn’t the case. They had lots of showings and were always mindful of safety to both the home owner and the potential buyers coming in. Rachel guided us through the process and always stayed calm and was very professional. She will tell you “I’m working for you” and she definitely goes the distance and won’t let you down. We had previously listed our home with a different realtor and that wasn’t the case. Rachel and Doug are a pleasure to work with and we couldn’t imagine having anyone else sell our home.

The Swardstrom are solid professional RE agents and good to work with. Doug and Rachel recently sold our high-end home in Irvine at a record price for the community and less than 2 months from listing to close. They provided a lot of assistance and had good contacts to help prep our home for listing. The marketing was superb, from professional photography and videos to advertising and holding Open House. During purchase negotiation and through escrow, there were few tenuous periods, but Doug and Rachel persistence and composure helped us work through the differences with the buyer. We highly recommend the Swardstrom to either sell or buy your next home. We've recommended them to our relatives that are considering putting their house on the market.

Rachel, Doug and her team are tremendous sales people but more than that they were very sensible and understanding of my family needs when it came to selling our house. They showcased it beautifully and that resulted in a lot of traffic during open house days. She delivered all the promises and went above and beyond her duties to make the sale a reality and on time and with no stress. We highly recommend their professional services. Her orientation on the selling process was outstanding and she and her team paid attention to every single detail to keep us on track when we entered the closing process. I will use her services again, she is highly recommended. Thanks.

"After repeated failures with other brokers We finally engaged the Swardstrom's to help sell our hidden canyon home and work with us to relocate to another city. This was the magic touch we needed to make things happen. Not only did they sell our Hidden Canyon home in record time, they also helped us find our forever home with everything and more than we ever imagined in back to back deals. They professionally brought us the best possible dollars on both transactions. It truly couldn't have worked out better. They are a class act. These guys truly are the Hidden Canyon Specialists."

We have known Rachel & Doug since we originally bought our home in Quail Hill! They are true professionals and sold our condo for a new record price for our floor plan on Dewdrop (during the pandemic too - using YouTube video and “virtual” showings)! While Rachel & Doug are known as the trusted and dominant real estate agents in Quail Hill, we also quickly learned how great they are in researching, finding and buying a new home for us! We will miss Quail Hill and our neighbors! Thank you Rachel & Doug for helping us with this transition time in our lives!

Rachel and Doug were great agents to have, particularly because we're fairly new to home buying/selling. They were patient and resourceful when answering our many questions, direct when we needed advice, and full of experience and insight to keep us on track. There were definitely a couple of times they went above and beyond, advocating on our behalf when we weren't able to. Overall, we achieved our goals, and we certainly have Rachel and Doug to thank.

Rachel and Doug are true professionals. They were responsive, available, friendly, professional. Their level of expertise is among the best. They were highly flexible and motivated. They sold our house in basically one week. There are many people out there who work as real estate agent. I think there are few who are real professionals. Rachel and Doug are among those few. Highly recommend them without reservations.

Rachel and Doug are professional, hard working, knowledgeable and this is proven by their track record in the market. They sold my parents house for over asking in just hours after hitting the market. What a great, pleasant, and smooth experience. Every step of the process was eased by the confidence we had in Rachel and Doug.
