I had the pleasure of working with Wade, during the recent purchase of my new home. My journey with Wade started when I was still living in San Diego and needed to relocate to the California central coast for my job. I found a rental property online and reached out for more information. The rental property was managed by Monument Global Estates; the company Wade works for. To my good fortune, Wade happened to be the point of contact – my first touchpoint in the Buellton/Solvang area.
Wade went above and beyond to provide information on the area, suggest locations that would be safe and desirable for a single woman to live, and offer suggestions on local eateries, entertainment options, and area highlights. He and his lovely wife even met me out for dinner when I came for a house-hunting expedition, going above and beyond to assist.
During my year-long tenure as a renter, I explored many properties throughout Buellton, Solvang, Santa Ynez, and Los Alamos to purchase. Wade was with me every step of the way; very patient and understanding of my desires, purchase power, and proximity to work needs. He helped identify the pros and cons of each property and offered perspective on areas of improvement at each location to meet my standards.
When I found the home that was right for me, Wade was incredibly responsive and proactive in moving the process forward. He worked hand-in-glove with the inspectors (home, pest, fireplace) the Title Company, and contractors to make my home feel like mine; all while I was working full time.
In short, I highly recommend Wade Koch for any prospective buyer in the Central Coast region. He is incredibly responsive, knowledgeable on the area, and knows who to call to get things done. And most importantly, he is a good human being. As someone who rarely goes on record with endorsements, this is one that I freely give. Give Wade a shot – I promise you won’t be disappointed!

With Wade Koch, it’s not just the buying and selling of property, it is a “Relationship and a “Friendship” in business and in life. From my experience, Wade Koch isn’t just a real estate agent — he’s deeply woven into the fabric of the Santa Ynez Valley. He has invested the time to truly learn this community inside and out — its homes, its businesses, and most importantly, its people. His knowledge isn’t just from research; it’s built through real relationships, involvement, and genuine care.
Wade approaches every transaction with kindness, diligence, and determination. He makes the process feel effortless, yet you always know there’s great strategy behind the scenes. His ability to negotiate and leverage opportunities is exceptional — and always done with integrity.
Wade has anchored himself in the real estate community in mind, action and heart by diligently educating and connecting himself in knowledge and closeness to all happenings and involvement related to the businesses, residential housing and individuals of the community throughout the entire Valley.
What sets Wade apart is how connected and resourceful he is. Whether you’re buying, selling, renovating, or just settling into the community, he has trusted contacts for everything — and he shares them generously. Beyond that, he takes the time to build a personal relationship, not just a professional one.
With Wade, you don’t just gain an agent — you gain an ally, a guide, a lifelong friend!

Wade was a pleasure to work with both as a property manager and a realtor! He is super responsive and effective, and moved our renovation process speedily along, kept up with servicemen, and then sold our family properties in unbelievably little time! He's a people person, respectful, informative, and understanding. We had a loss in our family recently, and he was very supportive and helpful navigating the turbulent time. I couldn't recommend him more strongly!

It was a pleasure working with Wade and Kristina at Monument Global Estates from the very beginning as property managers and eventually as realtors. They helped us renovate our country rentals into chic modern homes and sold them in record time! One home sold before it was even officially listed for sale. Very trustworthy, friendly, and experts at what they do, I highly recommend them both!

Wade Koch went above and beyond as our real estate agent. From our very first meeting, he was professional, knowledgeable, and truly listened to what we were looking for. He guided us through every step of the process with patience and expertise, always making sure we felt informed and confident. What impressed us most was his responsiveness — no matter the time or question, Wade was always available and quick to respond. He is a strong negotiator and an even better communicator, keeping us in the loop from offer to close. On top of that, Wade is genuinely kind and personable — the kind of person you're glad to have on your side. We couldn't recommend him more highly.

looking to buy or sell.

Wade helped us relocate from Santa Rosa to Solvang and made what could have been a very stressful
move feel manageable. He knew the local market inside out, listened to what we needed, and never
pushed us toward anything that wasn't right. His communication throughout was exceptional. We're now
happily settled in Solvang and grateful we had Wade in our corner.

Brooke helped us sell our home in Grover Beach and it was a wonderful experience. She was professional,
communicative, and always looking out for our best interests. She got us multiple offers quickly and
negotiated a great outcome. We would work with her again in a heartbeat.

We moved from San Diego to the Central Coast and Wade was recommended to us by a friend. From the first call, he made us feel like we had known him for years. He was patient with our long-distance search, honest about every property, and made sure we understood the market. When we finally found the right home, he negotiated hard on our behalf. We couldn't have done it without him.

Brooke went above and beyond for us. She was patient as we figured out exactly what we wanted, and
when we found it she moved fast to get us the deal. She's the real deal.

When my husband and I decided to sell our home, I was set on listing for sale by the owner. Well, my thoughts completely changed when we met Brooke Fraser. She was very professional but also personable. Did not try to persuade me to list with her (she was showing our home to a client of hers) but instead offered suggestions and advice regarding ways to protect ourselves while trying without a listing agent. My husband and I decided to list our home with Brooke. It only took a short time to receive offers. Through the escrow, there were a couple of hurdles to get over but Brooke was on top of them and resolving them the second they popped up. Brooke made the process more enjoyable and easy. Thank you so much Brooke for helping us move to the next adventure in our lives.
