She had answers for everything, made the process seamless, and got my condo sold fast (I had 2 offers in a few days!) with zero hiccups. I'm incredibly grateful to have had her on my side. Highly recommend!

I worked with Kimberly recently when I bought my first condo. She was extremely welcoming and…read moreinformative, and made the intimidating experience of buying my first place a very pleasant one. I felt she advocated for me at all the right points of the process, and educated me on many important aspects of buying a home and home ownership in general. She got me a great deal on a really cute condo in Mission Hills, and I still feel very satisfied with the whole process and with my new home! I would definitely recommend hiring Kimberly to help you buy or sell your home. Five Stars!

Selling a home is stressful (especially for someone like me!) but Lori and Jesse made the whole…read moreprocess feel surprisingly easy. They were always available to answer questions, kept me informed every step of the way and made sure I knew what to expect throughout the process. Their advice on pricing and negotiations was spot on, and everything moved smoothly from getting my house ready to list all the way through closing. I also want to give a shoutout to their TC, Alexa. She kept everything organized behind the scenes, was always responsive and helpful, and made sure nothing slipped through the cracks. I have no doubt that her attention to detail played a big part in helping us close on time. Thank you to Lori, Alexa and Jesse in making this process feel smooth and manageable! If you're looking for a knowledgeable, responsive team to help sell your home, this is your team!

My significant other has been nagging me about it for a month or so because I was turning my condo into rental property. The Yelp Projects function is great. I received 3 quotes fairly quickly and decided on using Correct Appraisals. Yelp app marked them as "Verified License" and also I liked the background of the owner when I checked out the website. Corbin had posted his experience online. Also liked that he had spent some time in New York Metro area for at least 8 years. Appraisal was done quickly. As far as the report goes, very detailed with sales comparison analyses and photos. Service was fast, quick, and efficient. Great communications. Very detailed and thorough report. Thanks to Yelp Projects function and Corbin at Correct Appraisals.

I had an outstanding experience working with Daniel Baldwin during our home purchase in San Diego…read more We were coordinating the process from overseas while stationed in Japan as part of a military move, and Daniel made what could have been a complicated situation feel smooth and manageable. He was consistently responsive and communicative throughout the entire process. Even with the time zone difference, he made sure my questions about the property were answered quickly and thoroughly, which gave me a lot of confidence while making decisions from afar. One thing I really appreciated was that Daniel respected my perspective as the buyer. Rather than pushing a particular direction, he helped me think through options and allowed me to drive the strategy when it came to offers and counteroffers while still providing thoughtful guidance and insight. He also went the extra mile by creating a detailed walkthrough video of the property and highlighting the specific items I asked about. That level of effort made a huge difference since I wasn't able to be there in person. Daniel combines professionalism, responsiveness, and a genuinely collaborative approach. I would highly recommend him to anyone buying a home - especially military families navigating a move from out of the area.

As a…read moremilitary family stationed in the UK, we received orders to return to San Diego and decided to buy before our arrival. The entire process was handled remotely through email, phone, and FaceTime. Despite the challenges of distance and time zones, Michael ensured the process was smooth and stress-free. Michael was consistently responsive, professional, and patient, always taking the time to explain each step and make sure we felt confident in our decisions. His FaceTime walkthroughs were thorough and transparent, ensuring we saw every detail of the home. What truly set him apart was his hands-on approach to overseeing repairs and addressing issues on our behalf, providing us with complete peace of mind while we were overseas. Michael went above and beyond for our family. We are deeply grateful for his dedication and commitment, and we would gladly work with him again. We highly recommend him to anyone, especially military families and first time homebuyers.

Rarely have I found a service such as Mike and Jessica provide that compares to their level of professionalism, knowledge, responsiveness, and caring that they bring to the table.

If you're thinking of listing a property in San Diego and you're fortunate enough to know about the Wolfs, I would look no further. It simply does not get any better than this amazing team!

Communication with Karina P. was excellent end-to-end, and the project was completed within a few days. Pricing was $600 if no monument would be affected by the work and $2,000 if a new monument needed installation. For my project, a new monument was ultimately not needed. I'm glad to have found MC Geomatics! I will not hesitate to contact them again if I need other survey services in the future.

Had to crawl through a window at one point to open a door. MLS changes were widely variable as to when they took effect. At one point a picture of the property we had taken was wrongly claimed as the intellectual property of another real estate firm. Homecoin offered no support in the situation. The office on B street in San Diego is a We Work space that's not regularly staffed. Had to call for customer support while standing in the lobby. Very frustrating! And finally canceling the listing resulted in a deluge of spam calls from desperate agents wanting to relist the property. Would have been nice to be warned about that.

I recently signed on with Good Life to manage my property because they seem to be a fit for what I…read moreneed. When researching various property management companies, Good Life's approach was the most straightforward and transparent with no long term commitments. After speaking with them multiple times with various questions, I was left with a feeling of assurance that I was in good hands. Being a first time landlord, I have no experience in knowing how to screen tenants, knowing the rules, etc., especially when my background is not in the real estate and rental business. Having a busy work schedule also means that I won't likely be able to attend to the tenant's needs in a timely manner. This is where Good Life fills in the gaps for me. The team at Good Life during the onboarding process has been super helpful and efficient in getting the property ready, whereas it would've taken me ages in trying to do it myself. I was assigned Andrei as my property manager and it's been a great start. He has been open, transparent, professional, and great to work with since the start. I recently had an online shopping shipment mis-delivered to my rental property, to which Andrei was instrumental in helping to coordinate the handoff between the tenant and me. Even though Andrei is my primary contact, I can see that they have great teamwork. On one weekend, I had a question to which I received an out-of-office note from him. But rest assured, another team member stepped in that day during his time off to help with my question. Good Life also has a great online portal for me to see all the documents and tax information. Their services have impressed me since the beginning, and I look forward to a great relationship moving forward. Keep up the great work, Good Life! I highly recommend them!

I had a very disappointing experience with Good Life Property Management. I applied to a property…read moreonline within one hour of it being posted, and I toured the property that evening. I was very motivated to rent the home, and even noted in my application I'd be willing to pay above the listed price. Well a full day goes by and I heard nothing so I called for a status update. The woman on the phone wasn't sure what the status was and said to call back the next day. So I waited and called the next day and spoke to another rep on the phone who seemed just as clueless. I emphasized that I had applied 48 hours ago and wanted to know what my application status was. He said he'd have someone call me back with an update. That evening no phone call, but a form email saying another tenant was signing a lease and I'd be notified if it falls through. I'm very certain I was the first to apply to this property, but they did not follow protocol of screening applications in the order of receipt. Then the lack of follow up and sounding completely clueless about the status of applications was extremely frustrating. I suppose I dodged a bullet not renting from Good Life. I feel bad for the property owner of the home as they would have gotten more in rent from me, and I was ready to sign the lease immediately. Good Life needs to learn better customer service support.

At inception, we thought we had a pretty straightforward escrow transaction. In reality, we ended up having an extremely complex transaction that involved the Title company and also some very crazy and rare problems. When there is an easy transaction almost any escrow company can complete the project, but the measure of a good or great escrow company is when there are unknown problems and issues that arise and how well do they help the buyer and seller work things out. This was the most complex escrow I have ever experienced, with some of the most bizarre events occurring and through it all Alysia Espinoza and her team at Alliance Escrow helped the buyer and seller complete a successful transaction. Very good experience with high quality people
