She always arrived early to scout out the properties and helped us make a great impression with the selling agent so our offer stood out to the seller. She even negotiated a repair credit that we didn't think would be possible! If you're in the market for a home, I would highly recommend Gail.

Gail was incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to truly listen to both of us. She provided thoughtful guidance throughout the process and helped us explore options without pressure.

We couldn't recommend her more highly.

There were a few hiccups (at no fault on the side of ADH) but our agents Christy and Meagan were so helpful as to what we should do next and how we should proceed when things didn't go our way with a not so professional listing agent with the first house we wanted. They were also more than willing to travel farther than normal to find us a house that was both affordable and had everything we wanted! We had to move in quite quickly and were very accommodating to our schedule. Overall we were so happy with our experience and I have and will continue to recommend them to anyone looking to buy in the San Diego area!

I cannot say enough good things about Meagan; from being 100% honest, sincere, and a hard charger, she was able to get my house sold in a timely fashion.

I truly felt at the end of everything, I was not only working with a "realtor," but a friend. Meagan truly cared about my feelings and thoughts during the entire selling process and I had absolute trust in her. I couldn't be more thankful to those who recommended her to me. I will with absolute certainty use her and American Dream homes in the future for my next home!!!!

If you're a homeowner in the process of interviewing realtors, I highly recommend you add Carylee…read moreStone with the Stone Home Team to the top of your list. My husband and I interviewed several realtors at the height of the market in February 2022. Most realtor's talked about how "good the market is," etc. Carylee was the ONLY realtor who said, "Whether it's a buyer's or seller's market makes no difference - here's the things I do..." She proceeded to tell us about her staging, photography, video(s), innovative and beautifully designed marketing materials, open house(s), her proven systematic methodology, and her negotiation skills. The best part? She made good on her word and DELIVERED on every point. Trust me when I say The Stone Home Team is a well-oiled machine. Record Breaking: We received the highest price ever recorded in our gated community, and we had the smallest floorplan. If you're considering selling... run, don't walk, to learn more about Carylee Stone and what she can do for you.

Let me start by saying that I have nicknamed Carylee Stone, "The Wizard." What she did for us was…read morenothing short of a magical wand waving over our entire situation. I know with absolute certainty that our lives would look very different had we not gone with the glowing referral we received from a close friend. I began the process of house looking by meeting and talking with a few realtors who offered discounted commissions and also understood how challenging it is to purchase a house in North County San Diego with its very highly priced market. I soon realized that I was getting nowhere. Literally. There was no way I was going to find our family a new home with the lack of effort, attention and knowledge I was experiencing. Then, I spoke with Carylee. I instantly realized the value and worth of this person and have never looked back. From the very first conversation, she was in. She grasped the complexity of our financial and family situation and right away, got to work. Before we even committed to the decision of working with her, she was researching tax programs that would help our family and provided us with resources to tackle each component of our unique situation. What she demonstrated at that moment was determination, attentiveness and care. Care for all the nuances, all the needs and all the wants. I knew I was given a gift by having her help us. For the next few months, we were a team. Finding homes, touring homes, discussing the pros, the cons, and everything in between. It is scary and challenging and also deflating to tour homes, write offers, get outbid and try again. But who remained by our side, repeatedly telling us that our new home is out there and we will find it? Carylee. And, the Wizard did just that. She worked for us and with us to find our new home, to make sure we were represented well at every step. She was direct, honest, available and at all times, had our best interests at the forefront of every decision and every piece of advice. To say we trust her is to put it mildly. To say we are grateful is an understatement. When she told me, "I got you," I knew she really did. Carylee is that person. She is that person who can and does make dreams come true. Our 8 year old daughter puts it perfectly. She says, "Even though this house stuff is hard and long, just think... we wouldn't have met Carylee if we didn't go through it." No truer words have ever been said!

This is a long overdue review, where to start…read more My girlfriend and I were looking for a home to purchase. We had gone from Realtor to Realtor. Not because we were picky, but because it seemed like most Realtor's saw us more as a "number" rather than a client/partner. After a couple months of casual searching for homes, we ran into David, who was doing an open house on one of the homes we were interested in. The entire time, he was responsive, honest, friendly, and just an all around genuine person. After talking to David for about 30 minutes, I knew I wanted him to represent us. After discussing the houses he was showing, he told us he would reach out to our realtor to discuss anything if we wanted to. He didn't even ask if we had a realtor, which honestly I felt was way better than immediately asking someone if they have a realtor they are working with. I told him we were looking for someone to work with, and wanted to know if he was interested. After that, David never changed in personality or professionalism. He spent HOURS searching for homes, as well as scheduling many different visits with potential prospects. No matter what day, or time, David was there. He would call me, text me, or anything, to let me know statuses, updates, and answer any questions or concerns. He also had a lot of experience in "fixer uppers" as well as other potential costs, etc. for things. He also had great experience in codes and regulations. Eventually, we landed on the house we wanted. It wasn't on the market yet, but David reached out to the landlord ahead of time, to explain our situation. We made an offer, and jumped out of escrow on our current offer, which we realized we did not want after finding our home. David was patient, attentive, and helpful in giving us critical advice, and his opinion whenever it was needed. I never felt like David was forcing us to buy anything. He was willing to put way more than enough to time to get us the place we wanted. Every other Real Estate agent seemed like we were a burden when looking for places to visit, etc. Also, we told many Real Estate agents our budget, and David was the ONLY one (out of 5+) agents that actually stayed within our budget. Others kept trying to sell us higher amounts that we were approved for, even though we told them we want to only go to a certain amount. We are still working on renovations on the current home David helped us get, and we are excited to have him over to see the new place! David, we can't thank you enough for your help and natural professionalism in working with us to get this place. For that, we are truly grateful. Josh R.

First off, listing with her was easy, all electronic, and she answered all of our questions promptly. Then, due to the crazy market at the time, showings were every half hour (and more) and Marla worked with the agents to make sure everyone saw our home. In the end, we had 14 offers all over asking price! Marla even took her time to break down every offer in an email and called each lender/agent ahead to make sure the buyers weren't wasting our time and that they had the funds to purchase our home. Once we were in escrow, the buyers had a VA loan and the loan approval requirements were very strict. Marla fought to make sure our home was appraised at the proper price and that the escrow didn't fall through. She paid attention to every detail and calmed my nerves every step of the way. Thank you so much Marla!
