"Luke and his team found our new home, closed on it, and successfully sold our old home in under 6 weeks. The Ebbin Group is THE dream team. Since he represented us both as buyers and sellers, I can honestly say his genius on both sides of a real estate transaction is supreme. He is a negotiator that knows when to hit the gas pedal and when to tap the brakes. Excellence requires character, integrity, nuance, and experience. There is no one better."
- Virginia and Jerry McFerran
"Luke provided us with 5 star service in all aspects of finding our perfect Santa Barbara property. He was able to negotiate a complex transaction while we were out of the country and even found us temporary housing when we arrived. We would highly recommend Luke for any sale or purchase of real estate in the Santa Barbara area. He has the knowledge, integrity, and warmth that will make your experience a fulfilling one."
- Richard and Donna Haro
"Full of market knowledge and transaction experience, Luke also brought commitment and great instincts to the entire process of selling our home. He produced top notch marketing materials for us and communicated with us seamlessly throughout. He got it done and was a real pleasure to work with."
- John Simpson and Patti Pagliei
"Luke Ebbin has represented me as the seller and buyer on 3 separate transactions. I’ve bought and sold over 20 properties and have never used an agent more than once, with the exception of Luke. He is by far the most prompt, professional and honest agent I have worked with. Every transaction goes without the usual stress knowing Luke can handle the detail and nuance for any circumstance. In a competitive marketplace like Santa Barbara these qualities are what will make a successful transaction no matter whether you are buying or selling."
- Wendy Weitzman
"We have been coming to Montecito for 25 years and thought we knew the area. But Luke introduced us to cool places we never thought to look. Our transaction wasn’t that large but was complicated and took a long time. Luke gave us great advice on structuring the offer and made sure that our interests were protected all the way through to the close. His professionalism and sense of humor never disappointed. We will definitely use Luke again and recommend him to anyone looking in the Santa Barbara area."
- Peter and Molly Harrigan
"On the scale of 1 to 10, Luke scores a perfect 11. He has helped us with two purchases in Montecito over the last four years; in both transactions, he was gracious, patient, and incredibly attentive to our specific needs. He came highly recommended to us by our friends and neighbors and we remain grateful for the introduction. A dedicated professional and strong negotiator, Luke’s an invaluable resource to any buyer who’s new to the community."
- Oliver Goldstick and Bud Leslie
"We have done three transactions with Luke. He is an extremely well informed, thorough agent - both residential and commercial. Luke helped guide us through a difficult deal with ease. He is a great listener, great communicator and always put our interests first. We would highly recommend Luke for any and all your real estate needs."

"We bought a home in Montecito in July 2023. We were lucky enough to get connected with Luke Ebbin and team through a referral from one of his other happy customers. The whole experience was 5-stars."
- Sean Doherty
"If there’s only one thing I needed to know about buying & selling homes in this area is I wished I had met Luke sooner. I’m very thankful I had him help me this time around. A bona fide professional in every aspect including insights only an experienced and extremely hard-working person could have provided. Luke protected my interests and gave me peace of mind during an unpredictable, last-minute change in lenders, continually provided sound advice, and was available to assist in every minute detail both ensuring a smooth transaction and everything afterward."
- Kurtis Sakai
"We have worked with Luke 6 times in the last 8 years – to rent, sell twice, and buy three times. He’s a total pro - expert in Montecito properties and a pleasure to work with because he works hard, communicates effectively, and thinks creatively about every facet of buying and selling a home."
- Chris and Amy Giles
"Luke is an unusually responsive and sensitive realtor. He sought to understand our needs and desires, and he brought a breadth of experience and knowledge, far beyond what we have previously seen in realtors. He’s also remarkably genuine, authentic, and honest. If we need a realtor in the future, we would definitely use Luke and recommend him to our friends and family, as we think he’s exceptional!"
- Kate Ludeman and Eddie Erlandson
"Luke and his team far exceeded our expectations in our recent transactions and kept us calm throughout the process. (No easy feat.) We continue to recommend The Ebbin Group to our friends and colleagues because of Luke's insight, professionalism, and attention to detail. He is top-notch."
- Oliver Goldstick
"I never thought I would say that buying and selling a house would be enjoyable, but working with Luke was a true pleasure! Luke is a straightforward communicator, has an amazing knowledge of the Montecito market, and was responsive and attentive to details. Not only did Luke represent us when we downsized after becoming empty nesters, helping us find our dream house that we thought didn’t exist, but then he turned right around and sold our house during the challenging few months after local natural disasters. Both transactions went seamlessly. We can’t recommend him more strongly."
- Carrie Towbes & John Lewis
"I can’t recommend Luke highly enough. He is the consummate real estate professional and made our property acquisition in Montecito seamless; from identifying the perfect property through negotiating the offers all the way through closing, Luke was there 100%"
