They offered to meet us on a weekend in Irvine just to help educate my husband and I about the area housing market, trends, the home buying process etc. We were immediately sold on their professionalism and initiative and decided to go with them to find our new home. Throughout the months during our home search, we continued to be impressed by their patience, commitment and professionalism as we put down offers on multiple places without success. Tommy & Lisa are just good, down to earth and honest people. They wanted to find us the best place for the right price as much as we wanted to do so for ourselves. At one point we even expanded our search into Ladera Ranch and other neighborhoods and Tommy & Lisa continued to be patient and optimistic. We cannot thank Tommy &a Lisa enough for being such fabulous agents and making the home buying process so pleasant. If we ever sell or buy again, we will 100% use them and will refer them to all of our friends!

Deneka is knowledgeable, kind, incredibly patient, and always available. She's truly making our dreams come true one house at a time!

We had an incredible experience working with Deneka as our real estate agent in purchasing our…read morehome. She was attentive, caring, and personal, always going above and beyond--even being available when we didn't expect her to respond right away. As soon as we reached out from a recommendation of a friend, she hopped on a call with us to really understand us and what we were looking for. Not only did she provide us with a wealth of confidence in her knowledge and personality, but it was clear that she paid attention to the little details of who we are and what we were wanting not just in a house, but for this stage of our life. When we found a house we were interested in, Deneka immediately dropped everything to give us a tour over FaceTime, and when we flew into town the next day, she cleared her entire schedule to tour us in person. Deneka is highly professional and knowledgeable, patiently guiding us through the entire process. She gave us a comprehensive tour of all the areas and homes we wanted to see in south Orange County, accommodating our needs as out-of-state buyers by scheduling the last-minute, full-day tour. Her flexibility in working with multiple contacts on our end, and her strong relationships with builders and other realtors were invaluable. Thanks to Deneka's dedication, expertise and heart, we found the perfect house for us to grow our family in, to build community with, to host fellowship in, and to create the foundation of our family and life in Rancho Mission Viejo. Even well after closing, Deneka continues to support us--sending us recommendations for local places she knows are important and meaningful to us and providing guidance on addressing questions or needs with the builder. We would recommend Deneka 100 times over. She is simply the best, and we couldn't be more blessed to have been connected to her!

Theresa Choi who made what can often be a stressful and overwhelming process feel smooth,…read moremanageable, and even enjoyable. From the very beginning, Theresa took the time to really understand what we were looking for and what mattered most to us. She never made us feel rushed or pressured, and instead approached everything with patience, honesty, and genuine care. It was clear that we weren't just another transaction--we were people she truly wanted to help. What stood out most to me was how responsive and thoughtful Theresa was throughout the entire process. No question was too small, and no concern was ever brushed aside. She always made sure we felt informed and confident in our decisions, which meant a lot during such an important moment. Beyond that, Theresa is incredibly knowledgeable and skilled. Whether it was navigating negotiations, handling unexpected challenges, or offering practical advice, she consistently went above and beyond to make sure everything worked out in our best interest. I'm genuinely grateful we had the chance to work with Theresa, and I wouldn't hesitate for a second to recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. You'll be in excellent hands.

Reached out for realtors in Mission Viejo via Yelp since I don't live in the area and…read more I was contacted by Kathe. I explained that I had a distressed property that I needed to sell in Mission Viejo above the lake. Kathe understood where I was going with the sale and property and was quick to meet with me and quick to start bringing investors by to look at the property. Within days we had multiple cash offers and hit the "magic" number I needed for the sales price. The process was quick and Kathe made it so easy. She went above and beyond also checking on the vacant property when I wasn't in town. Kathe also helped me set up an estate sale at the property. When I say Kathe exceeded my expectations, that is truly an understatement. Kathe was freaking awesome! From start to finish; the process was simple and I was kept in the loop by her and her escrow company. Thanks again Kathe for the outstanding job you did. I cannot recommend Kathe enough when it comes to all your real estate needs.

A True Dynamic Duo - Never worked with anyone better!…read more We have been living out of town for over a decade now and wanted someone local to help us return closer to family and friends. Their online presence and reviews were impressive. We called them and within the same day started looking at properties with Rob. What I think Rob does best is that he read us well. Every search became closer to a dream home we didn't even know we wanted yet. His ability to read people also helped greatly when it came to negotiations. He far exceeded my expectations. After an offer was accepted, we met Janet and I was immediately impressed by her attention to detail, patience and comprehensive levels of support. There were weekly comms, thorough check ins, and proactive lists of service providers that we are using daily as we move in. So lucky that we found these two. Truly couldn't imagine the process going any better. We are lifelong fans and will share with people closest to us.

I cannot thank enough to Janet for her wonderful customer services and professional skill selling…read moreour home. Every little step, she would make sure to communicate to me and I understand clearly for what decision I am making. We got into a bit challenge situation due to the first time home buyer was transferring the money from overseas. I used to do this and knew it wasn't difficult. However, I guess each country handles money transfer differently, which caused us 1.5 weeks delay on the closing and we were almost loosing our purchase on the other house that was pending for the sell of our current home. Everyday was tense and thank God the buyers and their lender finally pulled it through with everyone's help and we were able to close the escrow within expected timeline. Without Janet's great communication, this would not happen. Thank you so much Janet and thank you Blackstone team for all your help and support!! Well deserved 5-STAR services!!

There were a lot of work needed on our property before going on market and Rosemary was there every step along the way. She got things lined up so we could get to market as planned. Wonderful project management skills! Rosemary's sense of style and potential buyers' preferences are spot on! Her recommendations for upgrades really increased the property's appeal. I wanted my own home to look like that after the upgrades were done! I relied heavily on Rosemary's expertise in navigating the complexities of the real estate transaction. Her advice and guidance are invaluable! Everything went through smoothly on an accelerated closing schedule all thanks to Rosemary. I highly recommend Rosemary to anyone looking for a top notch realtor who is trustworthy, professional, personable, and knows her business inside and out. She's the only one I would go to for any future real estate needs.

I recently had the privilege of being personally represented again by Rosemary Hieber. I would like…read moreto offer my professional and personal endorsement of Rosemary Hieber as she originally helped me purchase my home in 2013 and more recently assisted me in the sale of the home, helping me expertly navigate property management issues and tenant issues that were outside of her responsibility. During the course of the last year, Rosemary was able to help my tenant find a new property, help me close out an unresponsive property management company contract and even offer options for remodeling and loft conversions. Rosemary negotiated a very favorable price and term for my home sale and made the process efficient and seamless, and expertly solved any problem that was presented. She was always available to me, 7 days a week and always responsive, and her problem solving skills are the best. She represented me expertly always with my best interest at heart, as I was remote during the entire process. She took the extra time that no other realtor would, to make certain that all parties are satisfied and all the loose ends are buttoned up. Her attention to detail was head and shoulders above others and her disciplined engineering approach to details was impressive. I highly recommend Rosemary Hieber as the agent of choice for all your real estate needs as she will always work in your best interest and manage all efforts to sell or buy a home in the most expeditious, seamless manner and negotiate the most favorable price and terms.

Best experience I have EVER had working with any real estate agent or Realtor!!…read more I've bought/sold two homes in the past working with at least 3 Realtors through the process and Liz and her team delivered the best experience BY FAR! My wife and I worked with Liz on the purchase of our new dream house in Orange County. From the start she was going above and beyond what we were expecting. We called rather suddenly when a property showed up on the market and scheduled to go see it with her. We weren't seriously looking before this. By the time we got to the property she and her team already had a good understanding of the history of the listing and were working comps real time to give us a clear understanding of what fair market value would be. Even adjusting it for what we were seeing in person at the property. We weren't certain if it was more of a buyer's market or a seller's market as it had been a seller's market for so long, but she explained the current conditions/trends of what she was seeing in the area and gave us EXCELLENT advice every step of the way. But she was also never pushy. She ultimately left it up to us to make the decision with the information she provided. We trusted her expertise and it absolutely paid off, literally. We got a deal on the property that we are very happy with. She offered great advice on everything from prices, timing, and even when to potentially walk away. Liz has a team of people that really seem to communicate as a team, not just a group of individuals working under the same company name. In passing conversations Liz talked about how she and her team work together, and it does seem like they get to share in each others expertise and experiences to develop a good understanding of the market. Liz also talked about what she does to train her team, and she seems like a great leader. No one looks left behind to fend for themselves, and it seems very structured so that everyone has support and training to deliver great customer service. Liz has a great reputation in the area which I think was a huge benefit in our case. The seller's Realtor already knew Liz and trusted her. We happened to meet the seller's Realtor, and even without Liz present, the seller's Realtor had nothing but great things to say about their interactions. Her expertise really does seem to be in demand as she seemed to be giving seminars or talks to audiences even outside of her team. Even with her busy schedule it never really impacted the scheduling of events at our home. She always still met us at the property for events like home inspections, walk throughs, and giving us the keys to the property. She always provided great communication and was very responsive whether it was through e-mail, calls or texts to help answer questions. I can be "particular" (picky) about some things and whenever I brought up a question or concern, no matter how small, she never dismissed it or tried to excuse it as something I didn't need to worry about. She took my concerns seriously and got them addressed. Out of everything, I think this is what I am most grateful for as it kept me comfortable working with her and I never felt like she was just trying to "close a deal", which was my preconceived notion of Realtors unfortunately. She really does seem to care for her clients and making sure they are happy. I would 100% work with Liz again!

He was always quick and efficient with communication and updates. We've worked with other agents in the past, but Ray surpassed all our expectations.

I would exclusively work with Ray for all future home purchases.

I struggle now as I write this. But I will write in nevertheless. Simply put, Danielle faced challenges that no realtor should have to face, much less endure repeatedly, in order to adequately and professionally represent her clients during the sale of my prior house. But, Danielle did so. And she did so with grace, patience, and respect. I fully understand that my review does not sound like the review of a realtor, but this sale was not your typical sale in any way. I find it hard to express in words how much Danielle helped me as a client, and as a person, during this process. She was always willing to talk things through and work together to come up with solutions, to bounce ideas off one another and to come up with the best approach. She was always prepared when an unexpected, or predictable, curveball was thrown by one of the parties involved in the sale. I have sold and bought a house before and I know buying or selling a home is stressful, but this sale was a nightmare. Danielle helped me make it out of that nightmare, and for that I am forever grateful, and would recommend her to anyone. She is a great realtor and a solid human being.

A few months ago we found ourselves in a very tough spot and had to make the decision to put our…read morehouse on the market. As anyone who has sold or bought a home knows, the whole process can be pretty daunting on a Good day! I contacted Danielle and explained our situation. At the time we were pursuing a couple of different directions, which included the possibilty of staying in the home or putting it on the market. Danielle was SO accomodating and understanding of the stress we were both under. She immediately set to work pulling together comps in the area, checking them diligently as some of them were actually listed wrong with MLS, presenting us with a very comprehensive plan of her marketing strategy and at the same time, listening very carefully to what OUR goals were. She was 100% ewith immaculate attention to detail. I especially appreciated that she lives locally and understands the unique aspects of this location. We went back and forth at least 3 times, getting ready to list, and then telling her we needed another week, then calling again and telling her we were ready to list again. She was supremely patient about all of this uncertainty and plugged along on her end, making sure she had everything in order in either case. As it turned out, we didn't end up having to list the home and honestly I felt terrible having to tell Danielle that we weren't going to sell after all, especially after the immense amount of work she put it. Her response was incredibly kind. She essentially said that she was happy for us and that we had to do the right thing for our family, and that if it were her own home, she would feel the same way about having to leave it. That was precisely what I needed to hear. I cannot recommend this hardworking, kind and bright woman enough. If the time DOES come for us to sell our home, we would definitely call her again.
