Reliable realtor you can trust, unfortunately look elsewhere…read more I had a scheduled showing with Mick at a property today at 4:30 p.m. we had confirmed yesterday. I text him at 4:00pm today as a confirmation that we will see you soon. He responded with a short message saying the seller is no longer showing their property. I called him no answer. I texted him back no answer. We literally arranged our day to go see this house. I think he completely forgot about us and did not even have the audacity to offer a explanation to the property situation. Terrible realtor to work with. Blowing off serious buyers and treating them with no respect or audacity to even return their call or text. This property is already been on the market for over 130 days, that should already shows a reflection of a poor performing agent.

My partner and I recently relocated back to San Diego. Due to accepting a new job in San Diego, my…read moregoal was to purchase a new property prior to starting the position and although this may sound like a simple task, I wanted to complete this in less than 6 weeks. From the moment I accepted my new job, I was placed in contact with Mick who immediately reached out to us to gain an understanding of our real estate wish list. Mick quickly grasped what we were seeking and provided his expert advice on the local market and since we were relocating from out of state, he also provided recommendations for a listing agent and brokers to obtain a pre-approval for our new home loan. At no point in this process did we feel pressure to make a decision. Mick was very accessible during our home purchase, is meticulous, trustworthy, and responded to our inquires in a very prompt and courteous manner. For each home we toured, Mick honed in on specific likes/dislikes and provided his expertise on our potential investment. Mick is a great negotiator and negotiated a reduction in the purchase price for our new home. The rapport we built with Mick put us at ease and we are 100% confident on our investment. I have worked with at least 6 realtors and Mick is by far, the best realtor I have ever worked with and if/when it comes time to list/purchase a new property, I will not hesitate contacting Mick again.

We've had the absolute pleasure of working with Brian Bazinet twice now- he's helped us buy not…read morejust one, but two homes- and both experiences were completely stress-free from start to finish. Brian is the kind of realtor you dream of working with: trustworthy, reliable, and incredibly friendly. He truly listens to your needs, is patient with every question, and goes above and beyond to make sure you feel comfortable and confident every step of the way. Buying a home can be overwhelming, but with Brian it felt seamless- he handled the details so smoothly that we were able to actually enjoy the process. What really sets Brian apart is his genuine care for his clients. He isn't just trying to close a deal- he wants to make sure you find the right home and that you're happy long after the paperwork is done. That kind of integrity is rare, and it's why we wouldn't think of working with anyone else. If you're looking for a realtor who makes the process easy, enjoyable, and 100% trustworthy, Brian Bazinet is the one. We can't recommend him enough and will continue sending all our friends and family his way.

Kimberly Schmidt is hands down the best realtor I've ever worked with. She was more than an agent…read more-- she was a strategic partner who had my back the entire time. 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!

We had a fantastic experience with Todd at Compass. We were moving to San Diego from out of the…read morecountry, so needed a lot of support and guidance when buying a home. He made himself available whenever we could make it to town to look with us, and he really took the time to understand what we were looking for. His wealth of knowledge and ample experience were a huge help since we were new to the SD market, and relatively clueless about the process. From beginning to end, and even after closing, Todd and his team were there to assist us with buying our dream home. Todd went above and beyond with many visits over to the house, and many calls answering questions or troubleshooting solutions to issues that came up. He was patient and wonderful throughout, and held our hands through all of the paperwork, inspections, insurance, etc. Most importantly, he was always honest with us and had our best interest at heart. We wish everybody provided the kind of service that we got and can't say enough great things about Todd Armstrong and Associates. Highly recommend!!!

We hired Todd and Jon based on a referral from another Military member who knew him personally,…read moreused them to buy two homes and we can't stop recommending them to others from day one! We went from an extremely stressful team at Century 21 that couldnt get us into a home for over 7 months to Todd's team which was night an day and into our home in under 3 months including closing timeframes. Day one was an interview with all our of desires, expectations as well as his teams expectations. This meant a lot to me and my wife. It also helped them understand who were were are clients. This market is stressful enough, they took that on THEIR shoulders and off of ours. They understand that there always will be another house out there and he will always put the best foot forward. They never pressured us on going out of what we can afford. That is huge! Communication was key for us. Never had an email or voicemail go under noticed for over 2 hours! They could have a 100 clients but they make you feel like you are the only one. Weekends werent days off for his team. VA process: It can be difficult to get a seller to agree to VA sometimes, they are educated on what a VA loan actually is and he markets it well to the seller for their comfort. Prior Military member: This meant a lot for us. Understanding the lifestyle of your client. He also knows the meaning of hard work with excellent results. Lender: They set us up with a team from Chase that met our needs and get rates, low fees etc. Putting in an offer: This process can be the most stressful here in San Diego. They made it easier by knowing the area, market value and we got a deal right at appraisal! Todd and Jon are great negotiators and make sure that every need we requested was fullfilled. Closing process: As easy as it gets! No to mention they have been in the business for a very long time and help set up our "future projects" with other clients to eliminate that hassle of random contractors. Thank you for everything your team has done for my family and your cards with be given out anytime someone talks about real estate.

WARNING: Deceptive Practices & Breach of Contract I am sharing my experience with Jeff Brick…read more(Listing Agent) to warn other buyers to protect their interests. Had I known his methods, I would never have proceeded with this transaction. 1. Unauthorized Property Removal: A washer and dryer in good working condition were present during showings but removed without my consent after contingencies were waived. When confronted, the claim was they were "old and worthless" -- then why go through the trouble of removing them? Only $500 was offered for appliances costing $2,000+ to replace. 2. Breach of Signed Repair Agreement: We had a signed Request for Repair (RR No. 2) where it was explicitly agreed to hire "Licensed Contractors" for the roof, plumbing, and electrical work, and a "Qualified Professional" for the chimney. Instead, repairs were assigned to an unqualified flooring/painting contractor. This was a direct violation of our written agreement, coordinated by the listing agent to save costs at the expense of the home's safety and quality. 3. Misleading Termite Clearance: He provided a "clearance" that lacked the industry-standard warranty, relying on deceptive wordplay to bypass professional accountability. Bottom Line: Jeff Brick prioritizes closing the deal over honesty and contractual obligations. Do not rely on his assurances; verify every single detail with your own independent experts.

I originally reached out to Alan around 6+ months prior to our planned move to SD and he immediately responded with some listing recommendations as well as suggestions on next steps once we got closer to our desired move date. When we met him in person about 1.5 months prior to our move date, he led us on 3 tours at different properties to show us what types of sqft, amenities, layouts and units were available for our budget. He helped us apply for the unit we wanted and we got it! He is extremely knowledgeable about SD and always had a positive attitude whenever we had questions/concerns about the move/unit. We've used other types of rental websites in the past and never going back. If we stay in SD for the next several years, we are definitely going to reach out to Alan for his expertise on the next place if the time comes!
