Many of our church friends recommended Anna Jin to us. After few conversations with her, we felt very comfortable and hired her as our realtor. She helped us purchased a larger home in Irvine and rented out our smaller condo in Tustin. She has not disappointed us! From showings, making offers, negotiating with sellers, home inspection, and mortgage loans, she has been on top of everything, and has informed us of what's to come so there aren't any surprises during transactions. Anna knows school systems well, and has made transferring our kids' schools easy. We have been leasing our condo for over 9 years, and we gained good tenants with Anna's help as well. We talk to Anna even when we are not in real estate transactions. Her advice to us is always valuable. We are fortunate to have a great person near to us who we can rely on. Anna means trust to us! read more

Anna is the most knowledgeable realtor we have ever met. We have asked her many questions related to real estate investment, from number analysis to the area studies. She's always happy to help and answers promptly. We lived in TX and wanted to extend our investment in CA since our daughter is working here. From finding the house to going through the transaction, Anna was patient and explained every small item that we need to pay attention to. She secured our loan with a great rate, and reminded us not to have big spending and unusual banking activities to ensure a smooth closing. Anna was very pleasant to work with, professional and detail-oriented. Thank you Anna for a very stress free transaction, from beginning to end! Good luck ahead! read more

Professional is different! There are lots of realtors on the market who can list, stage, and sell home, but working with Anna Jin has always been a great experience for me. I am amazed by Anna's broad knowledge, negotiation skills and integrity! Since meeting Anna, I have given all my real estate transactions to her. I've had 9 real estate transactions with Anna in the past 12 years. I've bought and sold homes for myself in Irvine and Tustin, and also bought/rented/sold rental homes in Irvine and south Orange County through her. As a investor, I am very selective with my agents. Anna Jin is who understands and knows exactly what I want and most important she is very trustworthy. She applies different strategies to different situations and has solutions for every challenge I face. With an in-depth knowledge about mortgage loans, she does not just immediately trust the buyer's loan pre-approval letter, but instead she verifies the facts herself and screens the buyer's loan to make sure that we do not waste time with an unqualified buyer. Her negotiation power is amazing. I recently purchased a 1.7 million dollars single story home, and we got an additional $10k price cut by using some findings at home inspection. After this purchase, I sold my Tustin Ranch home. I was worried that it would sit on the market for long, because it is a high end property, but she helped me sell it within 3 days and handled it all by herself, because I had to go to overseas to visit my ill parents. During the transaction, she stayed in contact with me every step of the way via email and WeChat. We had a very smooth closing. I feel that Anna is always on my side and trying her best to protect my interests. I refer her to all my friends. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a professional realtor! read more

We met Anna at our former next door neighbor's open house, which she was selling at the time. She was very friendly and patient, making sure to answer everyone's questions. We weren't planning to buy that house at first, but ended up liking it, so we purchased it through Anna! Right after the closing, we also hired Anna to sell the former house that we had. After a few years, our kids were grown up and we wanted to move to a smaller house. Again, Anna not only helped us purchase a condo but also sold our house. In every transaction, Anna has impressed us with her broad knowledge and professionalism. She pays attention to all the details and clears out our concerns beforehand. Our buying and selling experience with Anna was very pleasant. I can't thank her enough for all the work she has done for us. She is for sure our realtor forever! read more

We were new to the area and did not have much knowledge about the real estate. We have known Anna through a good friend. At the beginning, we did not have any idea of what property could be a good fit to us. Anna was very patient. She showed us different homes in different communities, including older and newer homes. We slowly built up our knowledge about the communities, schools and houses. After viewing so many homes, we can possibly narrowed down our focus on the new homes. She came to all of our meetings with the builder and design center. We had hard time to understand all the materials of the cabinets, counter tops and flooring, but with her explanation and help, we were able to pick the ones work for us. Now we really love our new house, and we know this won't be possible without Anna's help. We appreciate Anna's great effort to help us, and highly recommend her service to everyone! She gained our trust through her hard work! read more

After we purchased our primary residence with Anna a couple of years ago in Irvine, we then purchased an investment home in Rancho Santa Margarita. Although we have some experience as Real Estate investors, we were still able to learn something new through Anna, like focusing on numbers not emotions, considering all the factors affecting the returns, comparing different programs with different lenders, maximizing the leverage, and asking the seller to pay for the closing cost. There are so many tools we learned how to use in order to invest in real estate. We learn different things in each new transaction with Anna. With her analysis and advice, we feel very comfortable in every step of the way to reach our goal. Now we have promptly rented out this investment home, and are looking for one more property. It has been a real pleasure working with Anna and learning new things! read more

Yeah, I am so excited to be able to move into our first dream home! Wahoo!! This wouldn't be possible without Anna's help and guidance! We are first time home buyers and knew nothing about the home purchasing process, so we were a bit nervous. Anna suggested us to write everything down, like our preferred area, our financial goal and budget, and all the concerns we had. By analyzing all of these concerns one by one with her, we were able to narrow down our focus and hunt for the home that best fit us. She also found a great lender with a great rate and a program which is much better than the one we shopped for. Although we had a bit of a hard time due to the seller's HOA's delayed response, we were still able to close this transaction on time. We learned that the home purchasing process needs cooperation from so many different parties. Anna made it all possible with her great communication skills. We really appreciate everything she has done for us, and highly recommend Anna for anyone looking for sell or buy their homes read more

Me and my wife were looking for our first house back in 2011. Anna was referred to us by my buddy. Ever since, it has been a great experience working with her for the almost 8 years now. When we purchased our first dream home in Tustin and obtained the mortgage loan through Anna, we remember being very nervous and excited at the same time. Mostly nervous about having a mortgage loan thou. Anna was able to break down complicated matters into clear and simple answers. We later had to rent out our home after being relocated to Texas 3 years later and Anna's keen eye helped us to find a very good tenant. And when we had a water leak in the house, she helped guide us in working with the insurance company, the tenants and the contractors. With her help, we didn't even need to fly back to CA! When deciding to sell our Tustin home earlier this year, she once again guided us in choosing a pricing strategy and preparing to put the house together for sale. She is attentive to the market trends and pricing and helped us confidently choose the right buyer. Our experience with her was smooth and pleasant! Now she is not only our realtor, but also a close friend. read more

We are new to this country and planned to move here to provide our son and daughter the best education. We have interviewed many realtors, and Anna impressed us the most and gained our trust. She has an in depth knowledge about education, the private and public education system in US, strength and weakness of each school and their potential impact for students with different goals. Learning this helped us greatly for choosing the location in which we want to live. The US real estate market is also very different than China. This is another eye- opening experience for us. From figuring out our location preferences, to learning how to negotiate, and eventually learning how to make a win-win deal with a seller, we have learned a lot. This was truly a pleasant experience. We love the house we bought through Anna. Our kids are also happy and enjoying the school very much. Thank you Anna, for everything you have done to help us! We will stay in touch with you and share with you the progress the kids are making. We wish you more success in your business and life! read more

Our family was relocated from Ann Arbor, Michigan (Go Blue!) to California where Anna helped us in purchasing our first Californian real estate in Aliso Viejo. We found Anna from one of the Ad she was running for her listing and got to understand the market and process to buy a property in California. Btw, Californian Home Prices is through the roof. I could afford a mansion in Michigan with the prices over here. Anyway, during the transaction, Anna paid great attention to details and pointed out that an addition in the property did not have a permit, she explained to us on the pros and cons, and any limitations or rules that we should be aware of. She was also able to renegotiate a fair price for us. She communicated directly with the lender to get their approval. It was a smooth and pleasant experience! After the closing, she also helped us picked new flooring that made the house look even spacious and cleaner. With Anna's help, we were able to fit into OC life quickly and comfortably. I miss Michigan a lot but the weather over here is so much better! read more

We just purchased our dream home and closed escrow! This would have been impossible without Anna's help. We worked with Anna before in a relationship as a tenant and landlord's realtor. She listens to us and finds out what would benefit us the most. When we decided to purchase a home, we were concerned about the liability of terminating the lease early. But Anna worked with us closely to shop for a new home and find a new tenant for our landlord at the same time. We had a seamless back-to-back closing for these two transactions. With her step by step instruction, we obtained our loan pre-approval, narrowed down our search and found the best way to gather important information about community and homes. Anna's advice played an important role. With enough comparison and analysis, we were able to make a comfortable decision. We are very excited about moving into this new home and want to thank Anna for all her help! We wish to share our happy experience and highly recommend Anna to anyone looking for a professional real estate agent! read more

We have known Anna for more than 20 years. During our time with her, we purchased our first dream home, purchased our current home, purchased investment homes and also rented out properties. All of our real estate transactions have been handled with Anna, and she has upheld her character throughout our time with her. We recently sold our investment home through Anna. The property was dated and needed improvements before putting it on the market. Anna brought us two contractors to compare and obtain estimates. She also helped us visit shops to decide which cabinet, countertop, accessories and paint color to pick. With her advice and coordinating, we have successfully managed to complete the home improvement in a short period of time, and the house turned into a great show case. We sold the house within 3 days at twenty thousand dollars above our expected price. The escrow was very smooth. We have never worried about transactions, as she has been always capable to handle any trouble if it comes. Anna is the only person we trust in Real Estate, and she has never disappointed us! Thank you Anna! read more
