For all of you out there thinking about helping out your friend, family member, or friend of a…read morefriend who just became a real estate agent.... stop! And call Chris Roberts, he is a real agent who came highly recommended. I'll be honest, I do have high expectations, so when my 3 other friends told he was great... I still wasn't sold. But then they told what he had accomplished for them. Since I believe in facts rather than opinions, I knew he was the right guy for me. Long story short, he found us the perfect home for us in less than 2 months. We got it for 20k under asking price and we received more credits that asked for. Because he found a loophole!! Trust me this guy money!!!

I am the trustee of a Trust that needed to sell a residence in the Rancho Arbolitos area in Poway…read more I interviewed several real estate agents, all of whom were well qualified, but I chose Chris for several reasons. I highly recommend Chris for your real estate needs. I signed a listing agreement with Chris just before the coronavirus turned horrific. It was understood that the house could not be actively marketed until a very large number of personal property items were sold or otherwise removed from the residence. Unfortunately, at the time I signed the listing agreement we did not realize that conducting a sale of personal property during coronavirus restrictions would be much delayed. Finally, many months later the personal property was sold and repairs and cosmetic improvements could be started. The residence was in good physical condition, but out of date. Chris recommended that we spend some money to re-tile bathrooms, re-carpet almost all of the rest of the house, remove wallpaper and re-paint all interior walls. He recommended excellent contractors for this work and these improvements were all made timely and at reasonable prices. I am confident that these upgrades were beneficial in both obtaining a better net price and a faster sale. As soon as the upgrades were completed, Chris, at his expense, had a videographer film a high quality presentation of the residence. All of this work resulted in numerous showings and multiple offers for the residence. Chris guided me through the counter-offers and we quickly signed an agreement that unfortunately fell through when a financial problem arose for the buyer that was not known at the time the buyer was prequalified. Original interested parties were contacted and new prospects looked at the house. We promptly signed an agreement with a new buyer at a higher price. With Chris's help, all of these matters were timely accomplished. Chris recommended an excellent escrow company and the sale was completed and the proceeds received even though we were out of town on a long-planned trip. Throughout the entire listing, contractor upgrades, negotiations, disclosures and escrow, Chris provided excellent advice that assisted me in meeting my fiduciary responsibilities to the Trust beneficiaries. I have purchased numerous properties over the years, but I am extremely pleased that I used Chris's advice throughout this transaction. I strongly recommend Chris.

If you're looking for a great surveyor look no further!…read more Matt provided us with an amazing experience. I highly recommend working with him. Basically we had to get a survey done on our property because we were building a new home and didn't want to build into the property lines. So the city ordered us to get a property survey done. Matt provided us with a good price and went on to explain the process of what he was going to do and gave us timelines on when it can be done. Very professional and he has a great personality. Our property didn't have any monuments and Matt had to set all of those, which were very difficult. After Matt did all of this work and submitted the survey to the county. We passed our inspection from the city. I highly recommend working with Matt.

As a tenant of a rental property, I have been very happy with Mojgan and Ryan's communication and…read moremanagement of the property. They have always communicated with tenants about important notices and have been very timely in their responses to issues that have come up. Not only are they timely, Mojgan is very respectful, effective, and helpful in her communication. She has been one of the best property managers to work with! Having two property management companies before this, I cannot say enough about the professionalism, effective communication, and care that AllView Real Estate staff have provided!

I wish we had met Ryan Case and the Bottrell Team a year earlier, when we first considered selling…read moreour San Diego home. Unfortunately, we allowed a friend to steer us toward the wrong agent, which ultimately cost us six months with nothing to show for it. This time, we did our homework and interviewed five different agents. Ryan stood out because of his persistence, thorough follow-up, and clear strategy for overcoming our home's previous overexposure on the market. He truly was available 24/7, just as promised, and delivered an offer we didn't think was possible. Even when a difficult inspection threatened to put us back at square one, Ryan remained calm and immediately brought in several affordable tradespeople to address the issues. He was the glue that held the entire transaction together and never stopped working on our behalf. We wish we could give Ryan more than five stars. He is truly incredible at what he does. A special shoutout to Donna and Julianna as well, they were equally fantastic throughout the entire process!

Giving five stars and a glowing review is simply not enough to express how happy we were to work…read morewith The GreenHouse team. As first time home buyers, we had no idea where to start. We were also out of state which made everything that much more difficult. I'm a big Yelp user and relied on the hundreds of other 5-star reviews to look for a real estate company. I was so impressed with Craig and Jesse from the start. The initial call was SO organized, thorough, and personal. Not only did they give us a incredibly detailed step-by-step guide of the buyer's process, but also spent the time to learn more about us as people and what we were looking for in a home. I was surprised my how much time and energy was invested before even signing any contracts with them. After meeting with a few different teams, we chose the GreenHouse Group and 100% stand by our decision! Communication was consistently strong and we were always in contact with someone/the entire team along the way. We worked with Lori & Alexa who also helped us navigate documents and important deadlines. The GreenHouse Group has a well-designed platform to track the home buying process--making it easy to see deadlines and to-dos. We worked with Craig for our Kick-Off Tour. The GHG evaluation system for homes captured everything important to consider when purchasing a home and we learned so much about what to look for when checking out a home. Craig was straight-up, incredibly knowledgable, and clearly looking out for our best interest. He took us to see quite a number of homes that day and even had snacks and waters to keep us going! Unexpectedly, and uncommonly, we found a home from that weekend's trip we wanted to put an offer on. Craig jumped right in and guided us through the 'make-an-offer' process. He worked incredibly hard to negotiate on our behalf and was able to coordinate inspections and video walk-throughs for us when we couldn't be physically present. We were always promptly and transparently well-informed and advised. We never felt pressured or persuaded to make any decisions. Craig and the GHG team presented the facts and gave recommendations based on 20+ years of company experience--always looking out for our best interest. They were 'real' and weren't out to "sell us" on anything. Even during the rent-back process, the team coordinated with the other realtor to work with the sellers on transitions and key dates. It was super fun when Jesse and Lori were already at the house when we arrived to pick up our keys--what a thoughtful surprise! To top it off, they came with a whole container of new home goodies and essentials for us to use while we settled in (and even had some for our dog!) The care box was super useful, especially when we didn't have any of our kitchen items yet! Even after the sale and getting our keys, the GHG team is still there to answer your questions and help you out--including a list of recommended contractors and other services you might need when moving into a new home. I'm sure I am forgetting something here, but needless to say, we 10/10 recommend the GreenHouse Group to anyone looking to buy (or sell!) a home. We have no regrets and could not have asked for a better team. Thank you GHG!

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!

I just happened across the review by "Mo F." and would like to set the record straight…read more I am the owner of this apartment, which serves occasionally as my private residence and is furnished with custom built-ins, Kreiss Collection upholstered pieces, West Elm glass table and Breuer-style leather dining chairs. Upon move in, Mo commented on the superior condition in comparison to places she'd seen, saying she would take good care, as she was a landlord, as well. At one point, I had the unit offered for sale, but soon observed that it was not in acceptable showing condition, although I had extended a generous rental concession to the tenants to cover any inconveniences. As it was obvious that I would not get an acceptable offer, I took it off market. However, I was totally unprepared for the condition in which I found the apartment when the tenants left, in a hurry, to go on vacation. The lease states very clearly that, minus normal wear and tear, the premises are to be returned in the same condition as when rented, any plumbing stoppages are the responsibility of the tenant, and any damages are to be quickly brought to the attention of the landlord. These are standard rental lease agreement terms. What I found was a severely backed up dishwasher with broken glass (which I had paid to have repaired once before), large red wine stains on the living room couch and etched into the Italian limestone flooring, soiled upholstered bedboard, frayed and cut dining room chairs, abundant dog hair over furnishings and floor, missing light bulbs, and a shoddy attempt to cover dirt spots on the custom cabinetry with mismatched paint. There was no attempt at cleaning, and the list goes on. The repairs were way in excess of the $2,900 deposit although, contrary to Mo's assertion, I did return $1,200 to them -- totally undeserved as it was. I am also appalled that she and her husband are attacking Pete Saxon Realty, since her dealings were always directly with me. She even asked, when she said she was engaging an attorney, if their complaint should involve Pete Saxon or be limited between landlord and tenant. I told her clearly that Pete Saxon had no part in the dispute. But, here she is placing blame on everyone but herself, and making the slanderous accusation that agents routinely keep tenant deposits. Although I am a broker, I have kept my license with Pete Saxon Realty because he has twenty-five years of exemplary service to clients and I value his knowledge and integrity.

Their professionalism, responsiveness, and attention to detail have consistently exceeded my expectations. One of the biggest benefits has been the incredibly low vacancy rate. They've done an exceptional job keeping my properties occupied with quality tenants. Whenever an issue has come up (because things inevitably happen in property management), communication has always been prompt, transparent, and proactive, and every problem has been resolved quickly and professionally. Maintenance requests are handled efficiently, repairs are completed without unnecessary delays, and service costs have always been fair and reasonable. Managing rental properties from a distance can be stressful, but SD Discount Property Management has made it virtually worry-free. After more than a decade as a customer, I can confidently say they've earned my complete trust. I genuinely couldn't ask for a better property management company and recommend them without hesitation.

From the time of our first meeting to the end of Escrow, Rick and the team provided five-star service. Rick was professional, honest, transparent and incredibly knowledgeable about the current market and strategies for moving forward. I needed to upgrade and make some improvement in the condo prior to listing, and Rick took care of everything with design, purchases, contractors, expense tracking and necessary oversite. He kept me informed every step of the way and always respected my input. As a result, we had a healthy return on the investment when the house sold within 2 weeks of being listed. I know that if, and when, I sell another property, he will be my first choice. To summarize, Villalobos and Solo Realty are the best! James L.

This was the second time we've worked together, and both experiences have been outstanding. Mike and his team are always willing to go above and beyond to help in any way possible. This purchase was especially challenging because of the loan processing company we were working with. There were numerous delays and obstacles along the way, but Mike stepped in and personally helped move things forward by reaching out to our loan officer and underwriter. His involvement made a significant difference in keeping the process moving. What impressed me most was that, even though the home I was purchasing was a value purchase and certainly not one of his multimillion-dollar deals, Mike and his team treated me with the same level of attention, respect, and professionalism. I never felt like my transaction was less important because of the size of the deal. Having the Wolf team on my side made all the difference and ultimately helped ensure that we were able to complete the purchase. I'm incredibly grateful for their support and would highly recommend Mike Wolf and his team to anyone looking for a team that genuinely cares about their clients and is willing to fight to get the job done.
