    Our #1 home - extremely competitive home due to the recent complete remodel and turnkey/move in ready status.
    Janzel M.

    --This review is specifically for Ryan Chae on the Dan Choi team.--- My husband and I met Ryan through a warm introduction from the Dan Choi real estate team on Halloween 2021.  We were originally planning on renting a house in the Orange County area because we were moving from San Francisco and weren't familiar with all the different neighborhoods.  We started our correspondence via email, to which Ryan was super prompt and responsive, which was crucial as the search was going to be mostly remote/long distance due to our tech jobs being based in SF.  We were free the last weekend of October 2021 so my husband and I flew down to have Ryan show us some houses that met our criteria. For Friday and Saturday, Ryan had set up 16 showings total.  My husband and I had actually looked at rentals in Los Angeles on our own over the course of a week in September and had found that process awful because we were at the mercy of how promptly someone's property manager answered the phone, if the website was easy to navigate, or if a lockbox happened to work at the site.  Ryan set up absolutely EVERYTHING for us, had a nice printout for each day and even set up some showings on the fly.  He also showed properties we didn't see on Zillow/Google!  He made the process painless, and honestly actually enjoyable.  He listened to all our feedback and as we saw more places he actively fine tuned what he'd show or not show. After looking at 16 rentals and realizing how competitive even getting a rental was, late Saturday night my husband and I decided that we'd buy instead.  Ryan was a rockstar with the hard pivot.  He worked tirelessly that evening to make sure we'd see as much as we could in our short weekend trip. For Sunday and Monday, he set up yet another 16 houses!  Switching to house buying instead could've been extremely stressful for any other agent, but Ryan took what he was given and not only rolled with it, but OWNED it.  After knowing what we liked and didn't like in the 2 days of rental showings, Ryan ONLY set up houses that were worth our time. The potential house search marathon was efficient, thoughtful and what needed to be done in case we had to continue the search from San Francisco after the weekend.   By the end of 4 days and 32 homes, I could confidently say if Ryan saw a house by himself without me or my husband and told us we'd love it - I'd have him write the offer and not bat an eye or have an ounce of hesitation.  I wouldn't even have to see pictures or get a link to some details! We put 4 offers down and due to Ryan's masterful guidance, knowledge of the market, and hustle we had BOTH our #1 and #2 offers accepted.  I am typing this review sitting in our #1 home that we got to move into on New Year's Eve 2021.  From initially meeting Ryan in late October, it took him 60 days to make this dream come true. Buying a home in the very crazy, low inventory Irvine/Tustin seller's market is tough, and there was a lot to learn as first time home buyers.  Ryan was not only professional, but also personally someone I respected and am happy to have befriended.  We wouldn't have won our bids without him.  Most people just have offers rejected.  We got to PICK between our #1 and #2 choices.  If I could give him 10 stars out of 5, I would!  But alas Yelp doesn't work that way haha. Highly, highly, highly recommend working with Ryan.  My husband and I will continue to grow our real estate portfolio with him exclusively due to this wonderful first experience. --------- Ryan is a part of the Dan Choi team so we did also have some interaction with Theresa Choi and Mina Yasuda (Mina Mortgage on Yelp). We also had the pleasure of meeting more of the team at a nearby Open House during our Home Inspection. Everyone on their team is extremely nice, professional, communicative, and reliable. Although this specific review is for Ryan, great agents reflect a greater team. I suspect working with any agent on this team would mirror our experience of stellar communication, masterful resources for the OC market, and excellent client service.

    First day in our dream home!

    See all

    My husband and I had the privilege of working with Liz to sell my mother-in-law's home after she…read morepassed away in August 2025. We first met Liz in September 2025, and from the very beginning, we were incredibly impressed. What immediately set her apart was her approach to pricing the home. Rather than relying solely on neighborhood comps like most agents, she used a sophisticated valuation system that factored in the home's condition, upgrades, and improvements over time. She walked us through how the software evaluated renovations such as kitchen and bathroom updates, roofing projects, and other investments by considering when the work was completed, what was spent, and the local return on investment. It was fascinating to see such a detailed and thoughtful approach to determining the home's true market value. During that first meeting, Liz also took the time to thoroughly explain the market conditions and discuss the best timing for listing the property to maximize its value. She confidently told us that once listed, the home would likely sell within three to four weeks. After months of preparing the house, which included cleaning out more than 50 years of memories and belongings, we finally listed the property in April 2026. Throughout the entire process, Liz provided exceptional guidance every step of the way. She was knowledgeable, patient, and never once pushy. She always presented us with information and options, allowing us to make informed decisions while trusting her expertise. That trust paid off. Just as she predicted, we received multiple offers and sold the home within three weeks! Liz exceeded every expectation we had. She made what could have been an overwhelming and emotional experience feel smooth, peaceful, and manageable during a very stressful and heartbreaking time for our family. Her professionalism, compassion, and dedication are truly unmatched. Elizabeth Do is a gift, both in her work ethic and in her humanity. I cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Liz, you are truly the GOAT!

    Best experience I have EVER had working with any real estate agent or Realtor!!…read more I've bought/sold two homes in the past working with at least 3 Realtors through the process and Liz and her team delivered the best experience BY FAR! My wife and I worked with Liz on the purchase of our new dream house in Orange County. From the start she was going above and beyond what we were expecting. We called rather suddenly when a property showed up on the market and scheduled to go see it with her. We weren't seriously looking before this. By the time we got to the property she and her team already had a good understanding of the history of the listing and were working comps real time to give us a clear understanding of what fair market value would be. Even adjusting it for what we were seeing in person at the property. We weren't certain if it was more of a buyer's market or a seller's market as it had been a seller's market for so long, but she explained the current conditions/trends of what she was seeing in the area and gave us EXCELLENT advice every step of the way. But she was also never pushy. She ultimately left it up to us to make the decision with the information she provided. We trusted her expertise and it absolutely paid off, literally. We got a deal on the property that we are very happy with. She offered great advice on everything from prices, timing, and even when to potentially walk away. Liz has a team of people that really seem to communicate as a team, not just a group of individuals working under the same company name. In passing conversations Liz talked about how she and her team work together, and it does seem like they get to share in each others expertise and experiences to develop a good understanding of the market. Liz also talked about what she does to train her team, and she seems like a great leader. No one looks left behind to fend for themselves, and it seems very structured so that everyone has support and training to deliver great customer service. Liz has a great reputation in the area which I think was a huge benefit in our case. The seller's Realtor already knew Liz and trusted her. We happened to meet the seller's Realtor, and even without Liz present, the seller's Realtor had nothing but great things to say about their interactions. Her expertise really does seem to be in demand as she seemed to be giving seminars or talks to audiences even outside of her team. Even with her busy schedule it never really impacted the scheduling of events at our home. She always still met us at the property for events like home inspections, walk throughs, and giving us the keys to the property. She always provided great communication and was very responsive whether it was through e-mail, calls or texts to help answer questions. I can be "particular" (picky) about some things and whenever I brought up a question or concern, no matter how small, she never dismissed it or tried to excuse it as something I didn't need to worry about. She took my concerns seriously and got them addressed. Out of everything, I think this is what I am most grateful for as it kept me comfortable working with her and I never felt like she was just trying to "close a deal", which was my preconceived notion of Realtors unfortunately. She really does seem to care for her clients and making sure they are happy. I would 100% work with Liz again!

As someone with real estate professionals in our household, we were very selective about who we trusted with this sale--and Devin and Courtney exceeded every expectation. From day one, they brought clarity, strategy, and a truly hands-on approach. They helped us think through the property's potential, coordinated thoughtful improvements, and guided us on where to invest time and money to maximize value. Nothing felt generic or rushed--every step was intentional. What really stood out was thier negotiation skill and steady leadership. When lower offers came in, they held firm, stayed patient, and never lost sight of the bigger picture. Their confidence and experience paid off, resulting in an excellent outcome and a smooth, stress-free closing. If you're looking for a team that is proactive, strategic, deeply knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in your success, we can't recommend the Lucas Real Estate Group highly enough.

    We really enjoyed working with the whole team from beginning to end…read more everyone was knowledgeable and friendly throughout the process This was our first experience with selling a home non-traditionally and if we had the opportunity to do it again it would be with Sellers Advantage. GREAT GROUP OF PEOPLE Thank You all from Joe and Linda M.

    I've known of Seller's Advantage from all the t.v. commercials and radio ads through the years. I…read moredid not want to go with a traditional realtor due to all the fees at the end to pay. Also the chance of our house selling in a timely manner at this time will take much longer. My wife contacted Seller's Advantage and one of their O.C. reps, Alvin came over and assessed our house. He gave a fair offer, but in my opinion, it was $50,000 under what I was wanting for my lowest offer. I did take into account the war with Iran just started and 2 houses in the neighborhood dropped out of escrow cuz seller did not want to lose $80K. Also the rising gas prices was also a factor. Why would anyone want to sell their house at this time of crises? So I decided to take Seller's Advantage's offer. From signing papers till our final move out, all went well and Seller's Advantage kept us up to date with what needed to be signed and move forward. Also the escrow company they work with were helpful and making sure we knew how our sale was coming along. I also liked that with Seller's Advantage there are not closing cost, realtor commission, home inspection, etc; and having to clear out things that we did not want to bring along to our new place. I would recommend Seller's Advantage(S.A.) Orange County if you are looking to sell your house faster than with a traditional realtor without all the fees and hassles that goes with that. Tara was our go to person with S.A. and she was very helpful keeping us on track with the sale of our house. There are others from the S.A. team, but I don't remember their names that have helped along the way and they did a wonderful job helping us. Thank you Seller's Advantage for making the sale of our house easier than I would have expected.
