We only ever deal with Runa for real estate. And it's for a reason. When I first started looking…read morefor a house many years ago, I started with the internet. There are so many resources out there, you can practically buy/sell online without a realtor; however if you are not schooled in real estate it's likely you will make several mistakes along the way. When we met Runa she opened a door to decades of knowledge and tricks of the biz. She quickly became a trusted member of our family, who herself became invested in our success. We've purchased two houses through her and have recommended her to our family and friends. With Runa this is what you get: - no nonsense honestly regarding the market and home purchase offers - intimate knowledge of the home market - unbiased opinions regarding potential homes to purchase - home sellers, Runa works hard for it 24/7. Midnight paperwork? She is game. Around the clock she is doing what she can to sell your house. - for home sellers, if you don't like or follow her advice she will do as you ask, and she will continually calibrate to make what you want work. - she works with professional photography and does the 3D map of your house. What I liked most about working with Runa, is I never once felt like I was not working with a friend even when I knew her for 5 minutes. She is the only Realtor any San Diegan will need.

My father had a reverse mortgage on his home and Runa ensured that there were no issues with the escrow process when it came time to close on the sale. The sale was also fast. Got multiple offers within the first week of listing the house, and we went to closing within a month of getting a signed contract. Runa also helped out with finding a reputable estate sale company (Resale Nook in Vista) who did a fantastic job on selling the items in the house that my father didn't want to keep. The entire staff at Tri City Realty went above and beyond to ensure a pain free selling experience for us and I would highly recommend them for your real estate needs.

I just recently purchased a home in the area with their representation and I couldn't have been more pleased with the exceptional service I received. Hiring Tammy Barbee as my agent was the best decision I could have made. She is extremely knowledgeable and always fights really hard for her clients. Tammy went above and beyond to accommodate my needs and always made herself available. Tammy is very friendly and personable, but she also has that killer instinct you hope to have in your corner when it comes to negotiations. Jeff and Karlie were also great resources and instrumental throughout the entire process. Purchasing a home can be a very stressful and intimidating experience, but Tammy and The Lund Team put me at ease and helped me every step of the way. I truly felt like I had an all-star team watching my back the entire time. I will definitely go back to The Lund Team for all my future real estate needs, and I strongly recommend you do the same.

As first-time homebuyers, we couldn't have asked for a better team than Lori and Bailee. From the…read morevery beginning, they were incredibly committed to helping us find the right home, taking the time to understand exactly what we were looking for and guiding us through every step of the process. What really set them apart was their dedication and commitment to protecting our interests. They caught issues that even the home inspector missed, and used that information to negotiate effectively on our behalf. Their expertise and persistence helped us secure a great deal and gave us confidence that we were making the right decision. Lori and Bailee were always responsive, patient, and willing to answer our questions, making what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and manageable. Their knowledge of the market, strong negotiation skills, and genuine care for their clients were evident throughout the entire process. We greatly appreciate their hard work and dedication.

Mo is just THE BEST…read more Funny, Savvy, and so easy-going. Home-buying alone is enough to sprout new gray hairs, but we were selling our house and looking to get into our next property - and we are very, very thankful that we had Mo as our realtor throughout the entire process. From the time we had our first consultation meeting to the time we closed escrow on our new house, she was there every step of the way - from dealing with the peculiarities of working with a solar loan and a solar lease assumption process (including one where the solar lease company had already gone out of business) to dealing with the logistical challenge that this global pandemic has brought. We appreciated her candor - it is so easy to let emotions get carried away in the home selling and home buying, she made sure we had all the pertinent information and provided some great advice before moving forward with major decisions. She will be your greatest advocate and ensure you are getting the best deal possible (whether you are on the selling or the buying side). She knows how to craft and tailor a deal to make the most attractive offer to sellers. We competed against 14 offers of which most had a higher offer - and the seller took ours. She is tenacious - the escrow process if full of critical milestones and she has it all memorized. She will make sure ALL PARTIES involved in the escrow process are accountable and meet their deadlines. This is especially critical to ensure the process goes smoothly and timely. IT IS ESPECIALLY NOTABLE that we entered into a ridiculously fast escrow timeline (12-days) - in the middle of a global pandemic - and lets just say there was never a time that the escrow company was waiting on loan documentation from us. Regardless of the logistical challenges that COVID has brought, she kept her cool, kept us updated, and kept us calm. NOT AN EASY FEAT. We highly recommend Mo 100%. Can't wait to work with her again!

I could go on for a while about how happy and thrilled I am with my experience having her as my agent. It felt really good working with her to secure my home and I truly believe you would be just as happy as I to have her as your agent.

About a week later, everything changed and we needed it sold fast. By fast, I mean we needed it listed within days and sold within a couple weeks. Before we even got off the phone with Crystal after telling her this, she had window cleaners scheduled, a photographer scheduled, and a timeline for when we would list and how things would go. We started this process on a Sunday, we were listed by Thursday, had an open house that weekend and we're in contract two weeks later. They helped us with lists of what to clean, what to remove and what to leave in the home. They guided us through the inspections and paperwork. We never felt alone in this process. We were highly stressed with the timeline we gave them but they stayed calm and reassuring the entire time. Crystal always had answers for our questions and never seemed caught off guard by anything the buyers threw our way. I can't imagine having a different agent for this deal. I'm leaving so much out of this review. There are just too many good things to list. I so very highly recommend at least meeting with the Joslins before you buy or sell anything. You won't be sorry.

Crystal and Brenton are kind, patient, professional, hard working, caring and detail oriented! My…read morepartner and I are very particular, so we wanted a very specific type of home with a specific floorplan. As such, our dream home was not easy to find, especially with the current state of the real estate market, the pandemic, and uncertainty of the economy. But with Crystal and Brenton's help, we successfully navigated through all of that, and more! Thank you both for staying with us during our long home-buying process! Our home is a new build, so that came with its own challenges, complexities, and of course, rewards. They were incredibly helpful in being with us every step of the process, especially in dealing with the builder. We are so thankful for them because they fully looked-out for us and our interests!  The lender that Crystal recommended was also an excellent fit for us! We got a professional experience coupled with care and efficiency from the entire lending team. In addition, their lead team member often made us laugh! That was so helpful because home-buying is no visit to the spa! Lol! Having lived in Los Angeles almost my entire life, my client/customer experience with Crystal and Brenton is something you would see in Beverly Hills, Malibu or Studio City, but of course with their expert knowledge and long experience working in San Diego County, particularly North County.  What also makes them special is Brenton's eye for structural detail. He used that to point out pertinent features of every home we toured. That was so helpful! Moreover, Brenton happens to be a professional floor installer. We used his services to select and install beautiful hardwood floors and carpet. His work is amazing! I highly recommend him. We got lucky that Brenton was part of our team because we could not find the right style of flooring from the builder. Having Brenton meant saving us time from having to interview and research floor installers. It also saved us time from having to visit the builder's design center, again. At that point in our process, saving time was so important because we were nearing our busy work season, and therefore would not have much time for more house-related projects/decisions. Lastly, what I like about Crystal and Brenton is their positive attitude, openness to our ideas, and eye towards our goal. Also, we got special treats and gifts to celebrate each important milestone in the home buying process! Thank you Crystal and Brenton!

She even brought her personal power washer and helped me clean my backyard, and personally rolled up her sleeves to help me repaint a room to get it ready for new buyers.

We stayed at a "luxury" home managed by Swell Property and were very disappointed…read more The outdoor areas were unusable. Patio furniture was extremely dirty with moldy cushions, a toilet brush was left on the primary bedroom patio, the BBQ was filthy with only two burners working, and the backyard was dirty enough that we had to clean it ourselves. Inside, the home was not properly cleaned. We found mouse traps with bait in a kitchen drawer, dirty rugs, mold in the shower, loose toilet seats, several TVs that did not work, and sticky, deteriorating remotes. The couch was covered and visibly filthy, more like dorm furniture than a luxury rental. The pool table netting was ripped so balls fell to the floor, sports balls were flat, and a rusted outdoor table stained my husband's jacket. After checkout, the property manager called once, said he would follow up, then stopped responding. When a property is advertised as luxury, guests should not have to clean or deal with broken amenities while on vacation. This was not close to the standard promised.
