I would give Rob and Laura a thousand plus stars if I could. Choose these two amazing souls for your home buying purchase. I promise it will be the best decision of your lives. Rob is amazing with the numbers and the explanations. No question is a dumb question. We were first time homebuyers and had so many questions about every single aspect. Rob was willing and ready with the "what else you got for me". And would quickly turn around to crunch numbers or do research to get us comfortable with every step. Laura is the sweetest person but also absolutely fierce with her negotiations and stands firm for what is the best offer for her clients. She is super organized and will get showings scheduled so fast and easy as if she already knew before we even mentioned the property. Rob and Laura are so knowledgeable about the RE market and even more so on the crazy CA market. We felt fully supported and really in the best hands for this market. They landed us an amazing unicorn deal with so many savings we didn't even know of. Thank you, Rob and Laura for being amazing at what you do and truly caring for the best outcome for your clients. We are so grateful to have met you! read more

We can't believe how easy of a house buying process this was. Rob and Laura handled every detail and it left us waiting for when we would start to feel overwhelmed. It never happened. They were both always quick to respond to our millions of questions, and really broke down different options for how to package our offer that we didn't even know existed. While touring houses Laura brought up both the pros and cons with the house so we knew what we were getting into right away. We knew we could trust her opinion and she had our best interest at heart. At the end of the day their expertise, promptness, and energy got our offer accepted which beat out a another offer that was $25,000 higher with more money down - they are just THAT good! Now we are settled into our AMAZING home that we thought we'd never get, and we couldn't have done it without them. read more

With Purpose Realty - Our new home thanks to With Purpose Realty! - Real Estate Services Near Me

Laura and Rob came highly recommended by a colleague. We decided to work with them because they checked the box for what we were looking for: good-hearted, honest, communicative, hard-working, and knowledgeable. We were living in SF at the time, looking to buy a single-family home in a very competitive market in San Diego. We were first time home buyers and had a tight deadline. Our situation was not easy, but Laura and Rob made it happen and we are beyond impressed by their work ethic and skill. We took a weekend trip to San Diego where Laura and Rob showed us 17 homes in two days across many neighborhoods. We were so impressed by how they carefully scheduled and mapped out every showing to make sure we saw every house we were interested in. For each house, they evaluated the condition of the home, taught us what to look for, built rapport with the seller agent, and showed us around the neighborhood. The home we ended up purchasing initially had 20 offers - yes 20 offers!! We thought we stood no chance, but little did we know that having Laura, Rob, and team on our side would be our competitive advantage. After a round of negotiations, we were the top 3. Of the 3 offers, the two competing offers were $20k and $40k above ours, and one was all cash. While we were the lowest and only put x% down, the sellers accepted our offer...we were blown away! Throughout negotiations, Laura skillfully communicated with the seller agent. The seller agent let us know a big reason the sellers chose us was because of how communicative Laura was, how quickly she responded, the team they had in place (lender + inspection team) which allowed for us to close quickly, and the fact that they give back to the community by donating a part of their commission. We HIGHLY recommend Laura and Rob - you will not be let down. We truly believe we have the home we love today because we decided to work with Laura and Rob, and we cannot thank them enough! read more

Laura and Rob are not only the best real estate team but also some of the best people out there. Throughout the entire experience their kindness and genuine care for other people shined. They are so clear in their purpose of wanting everyone involved in each situation--from buyers to sellers--to experience a genuinely positive outcome. On top of that they donate a portion of their proceeds to a beautiful cause (Street Angels). We were lucky enough to both buy and sell with Laura and Rob and it was a magical experience. Prior to this experience we bought and refinanced our condo. Some of that experience was good and some not so much. Even the best of our prior experiences didn't come anywhere close to what we experienced with Rob and Laura. They went above and beyond and exceeded even our wildest expectations. When we initially met with Laura she was so informative and clear. We were worried about buying and selling at the same time and she gave us comfort while also being realistic. Initially we had planned to buy before we sold with a contingency for selling our old place. But, because Laura is amazing (I am not kidding Laura is seriously amazing!!!!!) she found us our perfect place on the first try before it was even on the market. We ended up making an offer (only one! Our first in this home buying experience) which was accepted. I am confident that the reason it was accepted was due to Laura and Rob's competence and care. I don't even think we were the top offer but they know the market so well and have such an amazing relationship with other agents that it didn't matter. We love our new place! Next we had to sell our old place. Obviously time was of the essence because no one wants to carry two mortgages at once. Yet again Laura and Rob went above and beyond to help us. Rob helped us update our place with new light fixtures, hinges, door handles and more. Rob was so kind! He knows we are both elementary school teachers, so our free time is a bit limited. His help was so important and valuable. He went above and beyond the call of duty which exemplifies the type of service they offer. Then, there was staging and professional photography (which is not necessarily standard with other agents!). They definitely made sure our home would sell for top price. It sure did! It became the highest comp in the market by a good margin. Plus it was an all cash offer with a quick close. It would not have been a better situation for us! Above all what really stood out was just how much they care and how good they are at their jobs! They are fun, knowledgeable, and kind! I love that they value education and work to educate homebuyers! This was a perfect 5 star experience and I will recommend Laura and Rob forever. read more

As first time home buyers, we were nervous going into the buying process as it seemed scary and overwhelming from the outside looking in. Cut to Laura and Rob. They prioritized educating us about the entire process from day 1 through their workshop and in every conversation. When it came to submitting and offer and all the details associated with it, they both went out of their way to make sure we felt comfortable with every decision and understood all of the moving pieces. This level of support made that initially scary and overwhelming process smooth like butter. Not only did we get to know Laura and Rob as our real estate agents, but we got to know them as people. This made all the difference as we had even more trust and confidence in them. They both have amazing hearts and senses of humor that it felt like we were working with old friends. We could go on and on about how wonderful this power couple is, but overall, this was exactly the experience we were looking for - educational and personable. We're so lucky to have found Laura and Rob and recommend them to all of our friends and family! read more

We couldn't speak more highly of Laura and Rob, they are amazing people to work with! From the beginning we had what I thought were unrealistic expectations of being in our new home within just a couple of months, and they went straight to work. In this market, it was extremely difficult to have offers accepted and even tougher to get a home below asking price but someway and somehow, Rob & Laura helped us find our dream home AND get it for BELOW ASKING PRICE!!! They are extremely responsive, and very hard workers. No doubt in my mind that throughout the entire process, they always had our best interest in mind and helped guide us through the entire process. They created best resources that will help ensure you will always make the best and most educated decisions. We learned SO MUCH from them. They have an amazing team overall. My wife and I are very grateful to have had the opportunity to work with them and we know that in the future whether buying or selling, we absolutely will look no further than with Rob and Laura. We also will refer anyone we know to them for their real estate needs! Thank you guys for all the amazing work, the hustle and for helping us find our dream home for our little family! - Giselle, Nico, Jose & Nacho! read more

Laura and Rob are a dream team to work with, highly recommend them!! They educated me on the process and made sure I knew what to expect every step of the way. They worked with me to buy my condo sight unseen during the pandemic with FaceTime tours and inspections. They understood my needs and wants, communicated very well; it gave me all the trust and confidence on my purchase. They are experts in the field, very creative and strong negotiators. They worked day and night to make sure we closed the deal in a very competitive market. Thank you Laura and Rob, you're the best!!! read more

The home search process is a trying one, especially as first time home buyers San Diego, but we made it with the help and support of Rob and Laura! They were so wonderful and made us feel heard, answered any and all questions, and were completely transparent from our first intro meeting to officially closing on our condo. With Purpose Realty is your one stop shop for home buying/selling and you might even make some new friends along the way. Thank you again! read more

I LOVE THEM. I'd become FB friends with Laura through a doggie playdate, and watched her sell house after house. There was just something about her & Rob, I knew they'd be the ones I wanted to work with despite having tons of other referrals. I was SO right! The process was a rollercoaster of emotions for me, but they held my hand through it all and were so well organized and prepared it was a breeze by comparison. I found the perfect place, closed in record time AND had it appraise for MORE than what I paid!! Wouldn't have had it any other way. Also, they're just cool. read more

We were soooo lucky to have found Laura and Rob to guide us through the craziness of buying our first dream home! It is such an overwhelming process, but somehow these two made it seem easy. We loved working with such honest, hardworking, and trustworthy people! They were always so available and responsive morning, noon, and night. They care so much about their clients. They not only worked tirelessly to find us our dream home, but made a point to keep us educated and extremely involved in the process all at the same time. I would suggest these two to everyone and anyone looking to buy a home, they will no doubt help you through the process and make it the best experience possible for you! read more

Purchasing our first home was such an easy and educational experience with Rob and Laura!! We had a bad experience with our first agent and we're so glad we switched to this power couple! Super responsive, informative, and passionate about what they do!! My husband is active duty military and the process still remained easy and stress free while he was away! They know what they're doing to help your offer get accepted! read more

From the second I met Rob and Laura I thought, yup - these two are amazing and I'm probably going to buy a house with them. What I didn't know at the time is that the whole process would only take 48 hours. First house, first offer, and before I knew it I was moving into a dream condo two blocks from the beach. Every interaction with them was authentic, professional, and you got a sense that they really cared for your best interests. Going through the process with them, I can say that is true and that they have probably set the bar too high for any future real estate agents that I work with (only if I don't buy in San Diego of course). The cherry on top was getting to celebrate with them in Greece, yes Greece. We independently planned trips to Greece and overlapped on several islands. These two are the best and can't thank them enough!! read more

I cannot say enough about how amazing it was to work with Rob and Laura!! My husband and I were first time home buyers and had very little knowledge of the home buying process. Rob and Laura walked us through the entire thing and even had a free online class for us to do to become more confident in the whole process. After our offer was accepted, the appraisal came back lower than we hoped. Rob went to bat for us and came through with a new appraisal at value. His and Laura's confidence, knowledge and positivity kept us at ease through it all and we ended up with the right home for us! With Purpose Realty is a team you can can trust and will undoubtedly fall in love with. True professionals that genuinely care! read more

When I met Rob I wasn't even looking to buy a home. My girlfriend and I stopped by a open house that he was hosting just for fun. A couple weeks later, I decided to reach out to Rob and asked him if he could pull a couple properties for me just to see what was out there. He immediately introduced me to Devin Pelley (lendor) which is equally as awesome to see what I could afford. He was very honest, efficient and VERY easy to work with. Within days we were looking at homes and I was talking to the both of them daily. As a first time home buyer the fear and stress were really high at times and I can honestly say im glad I picked these two top work with. Rob gained my trust very quickly and made the process smooth and painless. They both demonstrated exemplary customer service, rapid responses to my every need/concern, their sense of urgency were comparable to mine, commendable honesty, hardwork and because of those tireless efforts I became a first time homeowner on 12 Sep 2018!!!!!!!! Thanks Rob and Devin. You're the best! read more

I recently sold my first home with Rob and Laura. It was very bittersweet, but Rob and Laura made the process smooth and exciting! They helped me with suggestions and executions of touches around my home that would make me get the most bang for my buck... Let me tell you, I did!! I can't imagine having anyone else buy or sell a home for me! They're very professional, checked in with me regular, gave me honest opinions, and worked with me on when the right time was. I can't recommend them enough!! read more

Rob and Lauren were great to work with on the purchase of our new home. They were responsive and incredibly well organized. The process was straight forward and the communication very clear. We would happily work with them again. read more

WE GOT IT FIRST TIME HOME OWNERS Thank you so much Rob & Laura This would not have been possible without you guys.

Ended up contacting Claude and in just 2 days he confirmed that we can get this. He's awesome, we are thankful to him as well. You guys really worked hard for us just to get our first house.

Best experience from beginning to end! I am a first time home buyer, and started by searching multiple realtors. Laura and Rob are by far a great team. Always ready to answer all my questions. I decided to initiate my experience with them and have no regrets. Laura and Rob begin by educating you. Which I appreciated (as a first time home buyer I took all available information to me). Once the courses with useful information and resources were completed; We then talked addressing my needs and assuring it's something that can be met. Once I gave the "I'm ready" Laura and Rob took the wheel :) very easy process. Thank you both I am now a happy home owner ‍ read more

Rob and Laura went above and beyond, even though I don't live in California. I had moved to Seattle and was struggling to find an agent who would help me navigate the tricky market when trying to sell my house during COVID. Within one day they put me in touch with a fantastic agent who helped run comps for me and made me feel like I was making an informed decision. The agent they recommended ended up also going above in beyond in every way, and ultimately ended up listing and selling my house in record time. I am so grateful for how Rob and Laura prioritized me even though they weren't going to my main agents and helped me find the perfect local agent to help me through my first home sale. read more

I had the absolute best experience with Laura and Robert in the purchase of my condo. From the very beginning to the very end, I felt their support and responsiveness.

I felt a connection with them as people right away - they're wonderful! read more

Laura and Rob are not only extraordinary real estate agents but are sure to become lifelong friends. They listened carefully to all the things that were nonnegotiable in my search and found exactly what I was looking for with great patience and a fun attitude toward the process. On the evening that I was to pick up my keys, they gave me the most heartwarming surprise. I walked into my new condo to find my family waiting on a Zoom call... my son in Singapore, my son in Berlin, my brother and his husband in Toledo, my sister in Reno, and my sister in Cleveland.

Wonderful home buying experience! Rob, Laura and Devin were spectacular with meeting our needs as well as making us comfortable during the home buying process. My Husband and I purchased our home without being in the area and Rob did an amazing job relaying information about the house and inspections via FaceTime or videos making us feel confident moving forward with the buying process. All of the information/instructions they provided were always easy to understand. I highly recommend this team for first time home buyers! read more

Rob and his partner Laura made home buying process so painless and made sure we were informed during the entire process.

I didn't feel pressured by attending to use their services. I would recommend the team because they are very organized, thorough, and hardworking. read more

These two were amazing! We started looking for a new primary home and Laura and Rob made it happen so fast. They were patient and understanding of all our questions, responded quickly to us and the listing agent, and ensured that we closed on time (21 day close) while simultaneously working to get us the best deal, even in this continued hot market. They are an awesome team and you won't be disappointed! read more

Laura and Rob were great. They were very helpful with walking us through the very complicated process of preparing our home for sale in Oceanside while at the same time preparing our 2nd home (condo) for sale also and to make things more interesting, buying a home in Oceanview Hills. An overall complicated process for all specially for my wife. Laura's spanish speaking abilities made the process easy as she explained and answered my wife's questions in spanish. The timing with the sale and purchase involving three homes was made easy with Laura's and Rob's help. The process was stress free and easy for everyone thanks to Laura and Rob. They did an excellent job without a doubt. read more

Crème de la crème! If you are looking for a professional, smart, caring, strategic-minded, engaged and amazing group of people to help you find or sell a home, no need to look any further. My wife and I were looking to move back to San Diego from San Marcos for well over a year. We have purchased 3 other homes throughout our marriage and can't say that going through the process was ever really any fun. Well, things were about to change. Great Karma came at us full steam ahead. We ran into Rob and Devin at a home they were showing. During our conversation they got us to open up and tell our story. They wanted to know what we were looking for and why we wanted to move. They intensely listened to our individual needs and wants. Fast forward, we hired them. Rob came up with a phenomenal marketing plan with many angles to show and sell our home. The first weekend he held a soiree that produced great results. Our home sold that weekend. Here is a link he put together to show our home online as well, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TlJwTjnL2wI . When we couldn't make it home on time for another showing, Rob came over and took our two 70 lbs. dogs, (our babies) to a nearby park and played with them. He sent pics and narratives of the day. My wife melted and so did I. Meanwhile, in the background Devin had his hands full with getting us a great rate and mitigating through the many curveballs we kept throwing at him. Simply put, Devin is GIFTED! This team gave us everything we wanted. All the details we provided when we first met them came to fruition. Unlike before, the process was fun and educational. They are patient, transparent and informative. They will coach you all the way through until you get your keys. Heck, we are still in contact. They gave us our dream home. We found a beautiful completely remodeled 1933 Spanish casita over by San Diego State. WE LOVE IT!!! I recommend this team 110% THANK YOU ROB, LAURA and DEVIN. Vic & Jen Guzman read more

Rob, Laura and Devin are an incredibly helpful and dynamic team! I attended their Hops & Homes training in February and gleaned a wealth of knowledge. Whether you are just starting to learn or are well into the process of buying your first home, they have something to help you with.

Laura and Rob are hands down a power duo!! Their professionalism and knowledge of the real estate market in our area make everything they do smooth and so easy to navigate! They helped us with a difficult challenge of selling and buying a replacement property, made sure we had clear expectations, and held our hand every step of the way. At the end, the result was way beyond our expectations of our financial and real estate goals!I couldn't be more thankful for their hard work and leading us through this process! Laura's negotiator skills are out of this world. She will play hard to make you win no matter what!

It's really a fortune to find a team of realtors that are so personable and do care about helping you achieve your goals. They're definitely a winning team! read more

We met Rob at an open home when we had just started looking at buying our first home. We attended With Purpose's "Hops and Homes" (run with mortgage broker Devin Pelley) to get a basic intro into home buying. The entire process was seamless. They took the time to find out what we wanted and showed us a variety of homes that met our reqs. Rob and Laura are incredibly organized, employing apps/checklists to make sure there is constant communication and nothing gets missed. We had the added difficulty of my husband and I traveling for work and they coordinated our closing during a completely insane travel schedule. Everyone says buying a house is stressful, but with Rob and Laura it was dare I say it, fun?! Thanks guys, so glad we stumbled into that random open house. We love our home and are so grateful to have you both as our realtors and also our friends. Cannot recommend highly enough! read more

Laura, Rob, and Devin were phenomenal in breaking down each important step of becoming a first time homeowner during their Hops and Homes event. They are informative and they do not come off as though they are trying to get you into their office as a client. They stress the importance of having a realtor-coach as opposed to only having a realtor. Strong relationships are top priority to this team and I am so excited for our upcoming appointment with them to explore more about buying a home. 100% recommend attending an event or contacting them directly whether a first time homeowner or not. read more

In May of 2019, my friend Jason and I had put our condo on the market with a family friend of Jason's. A couple months later, we had a few offers, but nothing was going through, and the listing was going stale. i had met Rob at a friend's housewarming party they put on at the Rabbit Hole bar. He kept touching base to see how things were going, but kept it low key, and did not press the issue. After one more offer fell through, We decided we needed to make a change, and so we released our agent, and hired Rob. The first day we spoke with him, he stopped by the property to see what he had to work with. He came up with a game plan to help us get the condo sold. He staged the condo, took professional pictures, and set up an open house the first weekend. By Monday, we had several solid offers, and accepted one. Rob is very attentive, proactive, and communicated with us well to let us know what was going on at all times. He was able to do in a few days what our first agent couldn't do in a couple months. He also helped me find a new condo to purchase, and was always looking out for my best interests. Rob is top notch, and I would highly recommend him. read more
