    Thank you Bob for finding us our dream home and making our home buying experience seamless! You have been so amazing!! THE SEARCH: We found Bob via his excellent Yelp reviews, and after one phone call we knew he was the perfect realtor for us. Throughout the search, Bob emphasised the importance of finding the right match home for us and helped us understand what that meant for our family. We spent one day looking at 5 home options with Bob, and he encouraged us to wait until we'd seen all the options before engaging in discussions on potential offers. We saw one home, which we though was our 'dream' home but was at the upper end of our price range and would have put financial pressure on us. Following Bob's guidance, we moved on to view the next home which ended up being our true dream home and a perfect fit for our family (and budget), and is the place we now call home! Even though we'd only had a phone call with Bob before starting our search, he was able to quickly identify what was important to us and found us homes which checked our boxes. He found us a home that is a mile away from my husbands parents and his new workplace, and in a location that is close to all amenities we could need. My husband and I are both working full time and caring for an 8 month old; Bob read the situation so well and didn't waste our time with suggesting homes that were out of our preferred area or requirements. THE OFFER Bob strategically structured our offer so that we were the winning bid, but not the highest price. We were really impressed with the way he structured our offer, and helped us think about different ways to secure the deal. We were the winning bid of 28 offers and I'm confident that we would not have got that house without Bob's strategic thinking and expertise. CLOSING: Bob was our one point of contact throughout the entire process. He connected us with the loan provider and ensured that everything in place to ensure a smooth close. It helped only having to go through one person, and Bob was able to update us on progress at every step of the way. He was immediately responsive, even on weekends and evenings, and never made us feel like we were asking too many questions. Bob was proactive and was always looking out for our best interests. An example of this was when interest rates were forecasted to increase, so he locked in our rate before it happened and as a result saved us money on our monthly mortgage payments. This morning we collected our keys from Bob as he happily welcomed us to our perfect home. We couldn't have been happier with this whole process, and can't recommend Bob enough!

    Inspira Group, led by Bob Dalsimer and aided by Jessica Sanders made our home buying and financing a breeze. Most importantly of all, Bob and Jessica got us the house we absolutely LOVE! We pinch ourselves with how perfectly the house and yard/pool fits us! Process wise - we were relocating from the East Coast and had essentially four days "in town" to buy a home in the tight SoCal market. We weren't sure if it was possible, but they made it possible and fun! Bob was very strategic in how he navigated us through the home buying process. First on the agenda was how to get the house we wanted - which boiled down to financing. He had prepared us for the multi-offer market dynamics before we arrived so we were prepared to make an all cash offer. He educated us how we could borrow against our retirement funds penalty free for 60 days, then refinance to get a loan so we had most everything lined up before we arrived. We still had a house to sell so didn't have the cash handy. Second on the agenda was the "where" we would live. Before we arrived, we had been using apps to search various neighborhoods to get a feel for what we could expect. Bob also set us on his website so we could rate houses presented for our desired neighborhoods and price range. When we arrived, Bob dedicated 3 solid days to go touring with us. He explained the basic pro/cons of neighborhoods to us and gave us a sampling on day 1 via home visits. Bob really wanted us to "love" our new home, so asked us lots of questions to hone in on what was really important to us. The yard, for us, was ultimately number one and we have a yard everyone says "WOW." On the second day, we found the house that we would ultimately put an offer in on. At the end of the 3rd day, Bob had us return to the house (since his intuition was it was the "one") we ultimately bought with our adult children, who (knowing us very well) convinced us that the house was the "one." Bob never pressured us, nor gave his opinion. He asked questions to understand and to surface what was important to us. Bob sprung into action once we decided - he spoke to the agent, visited her again on the 4th day. He was miraculously able to convince her that we were the right buyers. By the end of the 4th day, among a very crowded offer field, had her convinced to take our offer without going into a multiple bid scenario. He likely saved us from $10 - 20,000, while still getting us the house. And on the 5th day, before we flew back east, the offer was accepted and we closed less than 2 weeks later. Jessica was in the background, lining up houses and moved to the foreground for escrow and closing on the house as well as the 5 week process to get the refinancing done. She likewise navigated strategically, getting creative with work arounds when the underwriter denied the loan since my husband hadn't collected his first paycheck yet. Everything from start to finish was done with skill, focus on customer first and integrity. Bob continues to serve an invaluable role - referring us to vendors for A/C, roofing, gardeners, etc. Their process, likely honed by years of working together, worked for us. We wake up every morning grateful we found them on Yelp.

    First home!
    Jessica K.

    What an amazing experience that we will NEVER forget! Bob and his team were so fantastic throughout this entire process. It was so wonderful to find a team that truly has your best interest in mind. Bob always got us the best deal and we were able to finally purchase our first ever home even during Covid! You will not be disappointing choosing this team. I will recommend them to everyone I know. THANK YOU GUYS for all you do. Never change :)

    To say that my wife and I were completely overwhelmed about the idea of entering the housing market would be the understatement of the year. But for those of you who might share those same feelings, congratulations, you can stop looking, you found the perfect real estate agent. Bob Dalsimer at Inspira Group in Irvine, CA went above and beyond to make my wife and I feel comfortable for the entire 2-year long journey (we were super picky but that never became and issue for Bob and his team). Their patience, hyper responsiveness, and overall expertise in the industry truly made this the most wonderful experience from start to finish. We bought our house at an ultra-competitive time in the market but Inspira Group's strategies and best practices in multiple offer situations always made our offer super competitive. My wife and I must have seen close to 50 homes in person and the best house we saw is the house we ended up getting (beating out 7 or 8 other offers)! Not to mention, Bob worked overtime to find the best loan that made the most sense for my wife and I. You will do yourself a disservice by choosing a different real estate agent, I would recommend Bob Dalsimer to anyone!

    Well...Hello There!

They made everything very easy for us in what is naturally a stressful process. When we moved out of the property, they kept and eye on it and ensured that everything that needed looking after was taken care of.

Instead of asking us to make a high offer to outbid the other offers, Vickie was strategic and recommended different approaches to make our offer stand out. And it did. The whole process was a breeze and she handled all of the communication and scheduling with inspectors, fumigation, and advocated for us to have the sellers fix everything that came out of the inspection report. Vickie is truly an exceptional realtor and anyone buying a home in Orange County would be lucky to work with her.

They are very knowledgeable of the area, and they also live in Laguna Woods. My journey started back in June 2023 when I took the LW bus tour with some friends to see the entire community. The tour provided a general overview and impression of the community, the beautiful grounds and the amenities. The part that was missing from the LW bus tour was information about the business details, how it all worked and the next steps to learn about a property. The tour guide suggested that I find a relator to help me learn about the leasing and buying process. I found Jon and Kathy Wallin after reading their yelp reviews. I called Jon and he suggested I come for a visit. In September 2023, Jon and Kathy gave me a personal tour and showed me a few properties and the community. It provided a great opportunity to learn, ask questions about co-ops and the real estate process. I really enjoyed the tour and knew then I would seriously consider moving to Laguna Woods in 2024. Jon and Kathy kept in touch with me for the months after the tour to see if I needed anymore information during this time. June 2024, I decided to sell my home in Los Angeles and start planning a move to Laguna Woods. Jon and Kathy helped me find a place to rent for a 3 to 4 months while I looked for a place to buy. This proved to be a huge advantage to live there and learn about the different neighborhoods and look at properties. November 2024, I moved to a rental and started looking to buy. January 2024, I purchased a home and closed end of February Jon and Kathy were invaluable during the entire real estate transaction, inspection and HOA process to make this as seamless as possible. They are professional and so generous with their time, and I couldn't have navigated the process without all their support and kindness.

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!

    We made the mistake of listing our home with a good friend , emphasis, unfortunately, on former…read more His strategy was to price the house low to create a bidding war. Sounded great in theory. In reality, after a month of lowball offers, deals falling apart, and absolutely none of the promised bidding-war fireworks, he suggested we reduce the price even further , despite similar homes, many not nearly as nice as ours, selling for more. We were completely perplexed. Every time we asked what was going on, there seemed to be another explanation about something supposedly wrong with the house, but never much acknowledgment that maybe , just maybe, the strategy itself wasn't working. At some point, when your beautiful home starts being treated like the last dented can in the clearance aisle, you know something has gone sideways. So we parted ways, took the house off the market for a few weeks, regrouped, and hired Kathe. The difference was immediate. From the moment Kathe walked through the door, she understood what made the home special. The custom woodwork, the huge back patio, the classic kidney-shaped pool, and all the little details that gave the house character. Instead of telling us what was wrong with it, she saw what was right with it. And we loved that. She brought in stagers, added her own personal touches, repositioned the home properly and , this is the part we particularly enjoyed, suggested we actually raise the asking price by $10,000 over our original listing. The minute the house hit the market, we received multiple offers. It sold in a freaking WEEK for nearly $40,000 more than what we had originally been asking. Talk about night and day. The entire experience with Kathe, albeit a very quick one, was an absolute pleasure. She understood the home, understood the market, and most importantly, knew how to present it in a way that made buyers see what we had always seen in it. We genuinely could not recommend her more highly to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. And when the day eventually comes to say goodbye to our current house, there won't be a dramatic realtor audition process. We're calling Kathe.
