We could not have asked for a better agent! Courtney has been amazing to us through the entire home searching and buying process. Before working with Courtney, the entire process seemed intimidating. When we started working with her, everything changed! She definitely knows her stuff, and does a great job explaining it in ways that are easy to understand. She answered every one of our questions happily and never made us feel like we were bothering her (we had a lot of questions!). She made the house searching process a breeze. We told her the general sort of place we were looking for, as well as used her website to set up filters for them also. She would let us know when houses would pop up on the market that she thought we would be interested in. As first time buyers, we weren't 100% sure on what we wanted, so as we started viewing places, she would listen to our feedback and ask questions, and then use it to help find us places that fit even more with what we were looking for. After we found THE ONE, Courtney worked tirelessly to help us set up inspections, get quotes, recommend services, everything! If plans changed, then she was on the ball and seamlessly made adjustments. Besides these normal buying activities, we did run into a pretty rare issue with the house we had to deal with, but instead of just letting us deal with it ourselves, Courtney jumped right in and took a lot of extra time helping us with that even though she had NO obligation to! I had to leave a review to give props to Courtney, because she has been so great to us. We've recommended her to friends already and will keep doing so, and if we are ever in the market again to sell or buy, we know who to contact! read more

Courtney Koranda - Compass - Real Estate Agents Near Me - San Diego, California

Courtney has been an absolute pleasure to work with. We are first time home buyers and she has held our hands through every step of the process and made sure that we fully understood everything. Partway through the home search process, we changed our minds on what we wanted, with a different budget, home type, and area, but she stuck with us. She really is the sweetest person. She helped us to find and book contractors to give quotes during the inspection period. When I mentioned how we weren't going to have enough furniture to fill our new home, she even got us in touch with some other clients of hers who were downsizing and who were willing to give us some of their old furniture. While Courtney is very nice to her clients, she is also a tough negotiator and will make sure that you get a good deal. She also has a ton of real estate experience and can handle any issues that may arise. I definitely recommend calling her if you are thinking of buying or selling a home in the area. read more

What a blessing to have Courtney as our agent to sell the home! She is a very professional and responsible agent from the first day of interview and to the closing date. Due to COVID-19 situation, almost everything from the start of selling process was different from our previous experience and even unpredictable what used to be routine processes. She was extremely capable to understand our needs and diligent to provide all new information with incredible flexibility. Furthermore, she helped us greatly not only to transform our condo presentable, but also to provide competitive market analysis for our decision. The sale process was smooth and done quickly through her guidance, unlike our initial worry. It is obvious that she enjoys helping her clients with professionalism and kindness as she even checked in us with a beautiful plant after completion of sales process. I will recommend her to any of my friends without hesitation. read more

We just relocated here from the Midwest and had no idea on where to land. Courtney took the time to educate us on numerous areas and could not have been more patient on helping us wait until the perfect house in the right neighborhood come on the market, She had fight like a champ to make sure we got the house in a crazy bidding war, with out her hard work we would not have gotten the home. Her knowledge of the market and her solid reputation with other agents was key. We have bought and sold many homes and have never had such a caring, dedicated and honest agent work in our behalf . It was a true pleasure to be lucky enough to work with such a great agent. John E read more

My husband and I bought our first home with Courtney's help in 2010. She listened to our wants and needs, and she was patient with our many questions about the process. Courtney displayed a thorough knowledge of the San Diego real estate market and always led us in the right direction during our home search. She responded quickly whenever we contacted her about seeing a house or needing some other type of information. We were confident from the start that Courtney would be our advocate in a competitive market. She was aggressive but never pushy--and she did everything in her power to close the deal. We have recommended Courtney to anyone who's asked about local agents. And when we're ready to sell, there's no one I'd rather work with than Courtney. read more

I thought it would be stressful and nerve wracking trying to sell a house from a different state but Courtney took all that stress away from me. She really went beyond as a realtor and took care of things I couldn't do living two states away. Always kept me up to date with everything going on. I had such a great experience working with Courtney. I would gladly recommend her to anyone for buying or selling a home. read more

Regarding Courtney Koranda, what a phenomenal realtor! We had a property in the Carmel Valley, and a real need to remodel the property and sell it in a very short amount of time (less than 3 mo). And to add to all this, we do not live in San Diego! We met with Courtney, and after our initial meeting, found a contractor, helped us with making supply and product selections, gave us a real sense of what pricing would be for this. After 6 weeks, the remodeling was completed, and our home was sold within less than 3 months and at a price 20% our asking price. What a super job! We couldn't be any more pleased and couldn't make a higher recommendation towards Courtney as a true friend, business partner and realtor! Sandy and Shaun Collard read more

Courtney K. Erwin is an astounding woman in the Real Estate world and presented me with the opportunity to own my very first home and have absolutely nothing to worry about. The thoughtfulness and attentiveness that she puts behind her work is like none other and gives a sense of excellent customer service like I have never experienced before. I am so grateful to have worked with such an amazing real estate broker and to have had the greatest experience in purchasing my home. I will continue to work with Courtney in all of my future ventures and strongly encourage you to do the same. read more

With the advent of so many online review tools it gets easy to file only great reviews. However, in the case of Courtney that is the obvious review...Great! We had lived in SD for over 16 years. We had spent a few dollars to upgrade our home and loved our neighborhood. But, this year our daughter had our first grandson & back east we went. The key to selling our home was to find an agent with talent, skill, and care. We reached out to the realtor who had sold us the house originally and she recommended, with the highest praise, Courtney. Our first meeting with Courtney made the decision obvious. She was genuine, informed, poised, and above all...all about us. We fell in love instantly. She just came across as knowing what it would take & how to do it without making any unreal promises. She immediately went to task planning a selling strategy. She created appropriate graphics, set up both walk-in & fellow realtor open houses, helped assigned the needed repair personnel, she reviewed & mapped competing/comparative house, et al. She suggested ways to stage & prepare our home for optimal presentations. AND she personally was on guard 24/7. Truly!! She even keep eyes on goal while on her wedding & us being out of the country. We were blown away!! Over the next several weeks we were updated & adjusted for the market. She helped us decide on pricing strategy. She was just all game. Within a realistic time our home sold and for a price that was very good. Pleased? Beyond any more rhetoric. This woman gives you what you expect from a pro realtor & will leave you with a friend. read more

Courtney made our home buying experience extremely easy and as stress free as possible! It was so helpful having such a knowledgeable agent who knows the ins and outs of the San Diego area. She was able to give us honest feedback and help guide us in the right direction. For first time home owners, we became overwhelmed with all the paperwork and hurdles involved but Courtney was on top of every step of the process and really helped guide us in the right direction. We highly recommend her and will definitely be using her again in the future!! read more

Courtney was amazing and really saved me! I was in a bad situation, close to foreclosure on my rental property, and feeling lost on what to do to get out of it. I had thought about about short selling, but didn't know where to start, and was also hearing from people that I might be too late to start one. So glad I reached out to her and explained my situation. This process can be very frustrating for sellers since there is little visibility into what's happening from week to week. She basically held my hand through the entire process. Dealt with both banks for my 1st and 2nd mortgages, and got my place approved for the short sale and sold within about 60 days. Without her expert knowledge and also her special contacts within the industry, there would have been no way I could have ever got my short sale through. Thank you so much Courtney! I will definitely be using your services in about a year to purchase a new home! read more

How can I describe Courtney? Fabulous! Really she went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with our home decision. Courtney helped my mom purchase her home a couple of years ago and my husband and I knew that when the time came we would contact her again to help us purchase ours. We made sure to tell her that as we helped my mom during her search. She did not forget us and made sure to keep in touch with us. Well finally the time came and one daughter and another on the way later we knew it was time to call Courtney. She did not disappoint this time either. She was attentive to our requests, patient, made awesome suggestions and always answered our questions in such a timely manner. She explains every detail of the papers you are signing and would not do it any other way! She kept in touch with our lender and escrow office so professionally and we never felt left out of the transaction. She made sure our voices were heard. If we ever need to do this again, we will again call her. read more

Courtney is AMAZING! She helped us buy our second home and could not have been more helpful, professional, and easy to work with. She was on top of everything and explained every detail for us. Then, she recently helped us rent our home and secured a great tenant within a week! If you want someone who TRULY believes in customer service as well as guiding and educating their clients through the home buying process then she is the woman for the job. She really wanted to help us and I cannot thank her enough for everything! read more

Courtney was referred to us from an executive at my work and was highly recommended. She is an incredibly knowledgeable real estate agent and helped us navigate several unexpected problems with the homes we were interested in or made offers on. She has previous background in appraisals which proved to be a great asset. She has a great network of home inspectors and is an excellent negotiator. She is a great listener and quickly got to know what both my wife and I agreed upon in a house (and where we differed). Ultimately we got the ideal house in a beautiful neighborhood for a great price that we both love. Early on we made an offer on a nice house in an area close to my work but the seller was difficult to work with and had a house that was in need of a major chimney repair that previous inspectors had overlooked. Courtney helped us navigate this difficult seller and through her hard work arranging expert electrical and chimney inspectors we were able to avoid buying a house with too many issues. She helped us evaluate other houses that appeared nice but she pointed out areas indicating they were actually poorly remodeled and basically flip houses. When she did find us an amazing house with all our wish list items she negotiated a significantly lower price than asking. I highly recommend Courtney. read more

Courtney is amazing! We had a friend recommend Courtney and we couldn't have been happier with how our house hunting experience went. She is very flexible, realistic, easy to communicate with, resourceful, and you can really see she enjoys finding the right home for you. She helped us find our first home with a baby on the way and made the experience as easy as possible. I'll have to say that we met as realtor and home buyers but left as friends! read more

Courtney helped our family with our home needs in so many ways. She not only helped us find a month-to-month rental when we had just moved into the San Diego area, but she then got us in to an amazing Poway neighborhood at an unbelievable price point by being one of the first to see the home. She negotiated fairly and confidently. Several years later, she assisted us once more in the sale of our home, achieving a FAST sale at top dollar, providing us with some staging, professional photos and marketing. Courtney will go above and beyond with all your real estate needs, we can't thank her enough...! read more

Courtney is wonderful to work with. She is professional, very knowledgeable, and personable. She helped my husband and I buy a condo several years ago, and when we decided to sell it and buy a house, we didn't even consider working with anyone else. I felt that she really cared about helping us, and went beyond our expectations making sure everything was right. I highly recommend her! read more

In our last 30 years my wife and I have sold and purchased 8 homes around the country. We've dealt with some of the best, and less than the best, realtors in our travels. We're demanding clients asking for professionalism, intelligence, expert communication, and empathy, to get an understanding of our needs and guidance in this extremely important life event. One realtor not only met but exceeded all of our expectations. Always professional, smart, and knowledgeable about all aspects of buying and selling one's home. Always putting our needs first, we always felt that we were in good hands and had the very best representation available. That real estate professional is Courtney Koranda. She helped us showcase our home, price it perfectly and sell it over our asking price In 17 hrs. We moved to Central California and she even took the time to help us find a solid real estate pro in our home search and purchase. We would use and recommend Courtney for anyone wanting the very best real estate agent for your most important Real estate decisions. read more

We had a great experience with Courtney. She was always very responsive and quick to set up showings when we asked - but she never pressured us and she was patient when we changed our minds about what we wanted. She also offered great and honest advice you wouldn't expect from a realtor. Courtney made buying a house easy - even the dreaded paperwork part. We will definitely use her in the future if we decide to move! read more

We just bought a new house (in Aug 2016) with her assistance. And we are writing this review after our first, wonderful night in our new house. It was our first home buy and even though I read EVERYTHING (that internet can throw at me) about home buy guidelines, advices, and things to look for, I would be lost without her. She knew exactly what should I watch for and adviced me on things that can only gained through many years of experiences. I was able to avoid a possible nasty situation, thanks to her, and finally found this wonderful, yet affordable house in La Mesa, CA area. She was diligent, and frank when it comes to personal opinion, yet maintained professionalism. Our house, that we were in interested in, turned out to have some minor water leak issue after house inspection. She worked extra miles to resolve the issue to my satisfaction. I praise her for her fast response and willingness to work extra. I had couple agents to choose from in the beginning. All were highly recommended from my relatives, close friends , and coworkers. I chose Courtney to work with even though she was least known agent to me at that time but it turned out to be excellent choice, thnaks to my coworker who introduced her. She clearly stands out among other agents. It looks like we will her loyal customer, but too bad we just can't afford to buy and sell houses every other month. read more

Had a wonderful experience with Courtney recently. She sold our home in Solana Beach and sold us our new house in Leucadia. I was very impressed with her level of knowledge coupled with outstanding professionalism. She worked tirelessly to work out all details and stayed involved after all deals were closed to tie up the smallest of loose ends. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a qualified agent. I have already referred her out to multiple people. read more
