I've been toying with the idea to buy an investment property in the San Diego area over the next…read more1-2 years (assuming rates go down to affordable levels). While I'm originally from San Diego, I'm unfamiliar with the real estate market other than looking at properties on Zillow. While talking to a childhood friend, she recommended her realtor Erin and gave me her number. It felt too intrusive to call her personal cellphone so I decided to go to her website to learn more about her and ultimately decided to call the general number. Well, guess who answered?! lol Erin. I had to mute the phone shortly after she answered because I was awkwardly giggling to myself like a crazy person. I guess I just figured someone from her team would answer so it's funny I ended up talking to her anyway. We had a nice conversation. While I had many questions, she patiently answered them all. She offered locations to consider in my price range, townhomes and single family homes and places that don't charge an HOA. I thought HOA's were only on condo's, derp. Erin demonstrated to me that she's more interested in the relationship than the transaction and I respect that. We went ahead and scheduled an appointment at her office next week so she can help me with planning.

Selling and buying a home can be very overwhelming, but having to right Realtor can make all the…read moredifference and that is exactly what I experienced with Erin Wade. It was time for my mom to finally downsize to a home which would be more manageable; square footage to yard maintenance; for someone in their 80's. Therefore, I searched Yelp and after viewing the realtors on Yelp, Erin Wade stood out even before I read her reviews. I called Erin and set up a meet and greet with my mom and husband to discuss options for selling and buying a home in the area. From starting to finish, Erin was friendly, professional, and went above and beyond to make the entire process smooth, stress-free and successful for my mom who has never had to deal with selling and buying a home for over 30+ years. Erin is incredibly knowledgeable about the market, communication was always clear and timely, and she responded to all texts and/or emails in a timely matter even while out of town for family event. If it just so happened Erin was not available, she assigned someone from her team to cover in her absence. Erin made sure we were kept in the loop on any information about the property my mom was selling and the one she was purchasing. Erin really catered to my mom's needs and to my husband and my expectations during the process. Overall, Erin made us feel we were the only customer even though we know that is not true. We; my mom, husband and I, are grateful to have found Erin Wade and her team to help my mom sell her home and find her forever home. If you are looking for a great, reliable, friendly and knowledgeable Realtor. Erin Wade is that Realtor. I will definitely call Erin Wade when I am in the market to sell my home.

We recently worked again with James to sell our mother's house after her passing. There was no…read morefacet of the experience where James did not excel. You simply cannot beat his professionalism, experience-based knowledge, and responsiveness. It had been an arduous time for the family and it was especially important to us that the home move quickly and easily; at a good price. James came through for us. James sat down with us to discuss and understand our particular needs and preferences and informed us what our options were. From beginning to end he was always available to answer questions and address any concerns. We would highly recommend James to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy real estate agent, especially during a vulnerable time.

His professionalism is…read moreunmatched and on both occasion his dedication to get us the best possible outcome has been spot on. He is deeply dedicated with vast amount of experience and passion for residential housing. We also found him to have a great breadth and depth of knowledge about real estate. He is consistently made himself available from initial search through closing. Even after closing he made sure we are well settled in the house and followed up on relevant items. He is a great negotiator and provides insights on the current state of the deal that allow us to make the right choices. He also provided us with timely updates as relevant to the ongoing contract. We admire his consistent dedication to provide the best deal available be it negotiating with the seller, getting good deal from loan manager, providing other recommendations for home improvement.

Recently had our sixth transaction with Shay Realtors, both as sellers and buyers. When buying,…read morethere is simply no comparison. Ray and his team (including Theresa, Nancy, Troy, Tina, and Amanda) take the time to understand your needs even when you aren't sure what those needs are. They ask questions, they listen, and they educate you, so that you'll know the "right" property when you see it. As a seller, there is no broker better. They help you prepare your home for a quick sale and, in our case, way above asking price. It's so obvious seeing properties being sold by other agents who have not taken the time to properly prep a house to sell. Conversely, Ray knows what sells and won't let you waste money on irrelevant improvements, but stages and then markets the house to maximize its appeal. Maybe most importantly, Ray and his team support you during what can be a stressful time and help you every step of the way. They make buying and selling a property a wonderfully easy process.

From the…read morevery first meeting, it was clear we were in great hands -- but what stood out most was how well the entire team worked together. Every person we interacted with, from listing to closing, was prompt, professional, thorough, and genuinely attentive. It was obvious that Ariana's team communicates closely and coordinates every detail seamlessly, because nothing ever fell through the cracks. We never felt pressured, and the whole group made us feel comfortable and informed at every step. Their teamwork really shined in how they marketed our home -- sharp photography and strong social media exposure all came together flawlessly, generating multiple offers right after our first open house. It's clear this success wasn't the result of one person, but a well-oiled team pulling in the same direction. Our home sold over the weekend and closed within 30 days! We couldn't be more grateful to Ariana and her whole team for making the sale of our San Marcos home such a smooth, stress-free experience.

Her expertise and experience gave us complete confidence.....this is actually our third time working with her. Soon after, Jamie Renfro welcomed us with a warm email and kept everything organized, while Transaction Coordinator Katie Henry handled every document and deadline flawlessly. Thanks to this exceptional team, our home sold quickly and at a fantastic price, with far less stress than we expected. We highly recommend Arianna and her team...Jamie and Katie....of the Schwarz Real Estate Group to anyone selling in San Diego County!

I do not live in the area and don't have a clear grasp on the local market there. From day one, Lindsay helped me get through the process with ease.

What could have been a really stressful, and a bid sad, experience went with ease thanks for Lindsay and her awesome team.

Ivan was an amazing agent to work with! He was very communicative, and really helped me feel more…read moreconfident about buying a home. He always answered questions I had throughout the process, and updated me whenever a change was made. I highly recommend you choose Ivan if you are the type of person who wants to be informed about everything, like I do. He was also very quick to respond to texts, and worked on counter offers immediately, sometimes late at night, to get me the best chance possible. The final escrow period was really complicated and stressful, but Ivan was really good about keeping up with the uncommunicative sellers and getting them to agree to things. He seems to also know a lot of people in the industry, so he has a lot of good relationships with seller agents, and is able to get deals made. I also worked with Patty, a showing agent, who was very knowledgeable and a delight to look at homes with. She was always honest about the pros and cons of a house, and always had all the details I needed to know. She went above and beyond in driving me all around San Diego, and helping me figure out what I wanted in a home. Highly recommend the Beer team, and especially these two, when buying a home.

Her consummate professionalism gave us the confidence to navigate a complex process and feel in control throughout. Robyn demonstrated a commitment to doing everything top shelf. Staging for example is something most agents treat as optional, Robyn included it as part of her service, and it showed up in her results. Our home sold quickly and at exactly our asking price. In the current market environment we credit that outcome to how thoroughly prepared and well-presented the property was from the start. For anyone seeking an agent who brings genuine expertise and careful attention to every stage of the sale, Robyn comes with our highest recommendation.

Serri was an absolutely exceptional real estate agent, and we can't recommend her and her partner…read moreGeorge highly enough. We hired Serri to sell our five-acre property with an exceptional panoramic view, our beloved home, and from the very first walkthrough she was extremely professional and thorough. She inspected every bit of the home and grounds and immediately knew how to position it to meet our specific goal: a quick sale, at a strong price, with no lingering on the market and no price reductions. A previous agent had pitched our home as a retirement property, which never sat right with us. Serri saw it exactly as we did, as a family home, and priced and marketed it accordingly. She brought in her own staging team, photographer, and videographer (including drone footage), and recommended a handful of relatively small, inexpensive updates, including a fresh paint job. The return on those modest changes was remarkable. They made a huge difference in how the home showed and clearly helped drive up buyer interest and the final sale price. Serri and George held a single open house that brought in over 100 visitors, and within 48 hours we had two offers above our asking price, from a family with young children and another who was ready to start one. Both could clearly picture themselves living there. Serri and George managed every step of the process with great care and skill. We were also in the middle of an international move at the time, which made everything more stressful, and Serri and George took every worry off our plate. Whether you're buying, selling, or just need solid advice, Serri and George are fantastic, and we recommend them without hesitation.
