Stephanie is amazing and extremely knowledgeable, as she helped us through this incredibly overwhelming home-buying journey. She brings this awesome "mom energy" to the process; deeply invested in our happiness, yet she remains an absolute professional and a sharp negotiator. One thing that stood out immediately is her work ethic. No matter the time or the challenge, she is on top of it. She taught us so much along the way, pointing out details we never would have noticed and ensuring we were making an informed, confident decision. The support system she has built is equally impressive. A huge thank you to Darla, PJ, Phet, Darlene and Billy! This team is reliable, responsive, and genuinely kind. What we love most is that Stephanie and her team still keep a close connection with her Ohana; she doesn't just disappear after the sale. Even now, we are still able to lean on them for guidance and expertise for any of our random questions. We are thrilled to officially join her Ohana and couldn't have asked for a better group to guide us home. Thank you, Stephanie and team, for looking out for us every step of the way!

From the beginning, she was professional, attentive, and truly had our best interests at heart. The personal touches throughout the process really stood out -- from the thoughtful stress relief kit to even taking us to dinner after the sale of our home.

If you are looking for someone trustworthy, driven, passionate, and genuinely amazing at what they do, I highly recommend Stephanie for buying or selling your home.

As someone with real estate professionals in our household, we were very selective about who we trusted with this sale--and Devin and Courtney exceeded every expectation. From day one, they brought clarity, strategy, and a truly hands-on approach. They helped us think through the property's potential, coordinated thoughtful improvements, and guided us on where to invest time and money to maximize value. Nothing felt generic or rushed--every step was intentional. What really stood out was thier negotiation skill and steady leadership. When lower offers came in, they held firm, stayed patient, and never lost sight of the bigger picture. Their confidence and experience paid off, resulting in an excellent outcome and a smooth, stress-free closing. If you're looking for a team that is proactive, strategic, deeply knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in your success, we can't recommend the Lucas Real Estate Group highly enough.

Regina has been amazing to work with in buying a home! I highly recommend her for all your real…read moreestate needs. She is a great communicator and has a warm & kind personality. She was great at communicating with the listing agent to show our interest in the home and helping us figuring out a strategy in getting the home of our dreams. She listens well and is such a good sounding board. She is on top of everything throughout the escrow process which can be very stressful. Super kind, patient and smart. She will advocate for you when needed and is great at handling all kinds of personalities. We are so thankful that we got connected to her during such important decision in our life, for all that she has done for a smooth closing and to have her in our corner. A true gem! Thank you Regina!

Having worked with other realtors in the past, it was clear when we first met that Regina was not…read moreyour typical real estate agent. She genuinely cares for her clients, is honest and transparent, and has the best communication skills in the business. I was particularly impressed by her level of effort in following up with the seller's agent to secure our offer on the house we ultimately decided to purchase (and also the house we previously decided to withdraw our offer from). Our experience was definitely above and beyond expectations. Being on the buyer side in a market like Irvine was a little intimidating at first, especially because we didn't know the area well, and the kind of property we wanted was in short supply and very high demand. It was invaluable to have Regina guide us through the various neighborhoods and give us candid insights/feedback on the properties we either toured or expressed initial interest in. Her attention to detail, thoroughness, and patience were greatly appreciated, as Orange County real estate was certainly a bit of a learning experience for us. After gaining more familiarity with the area, we felt confident in proceeding. The first house we submitted an offer on had over 14 other competing offers. Through persistent communication, hard work, and determination, Regina was able to get the seller's agent to accept ours. I was extremely excited and impressed, but due to other reasons, we ended up backing out and re-entering the market. After that initial experience, we had full confidence that if a house popped up that we really wanted, she would make sure our offer was selected against the competition. The house we ended up purchasing came on the market shortly after. Unfortunately, another bidding war ensued, but Regina once again came up on top. We couldn't be happier. Very few properties fit all of our criteria, so the fact that the house we ended up buying checked all our boxes is almost unbelievable. I'd like to thank Regina for the frequent, detailed updates throughout the process that were perfect for someone like me who cares about all the little details. I also appreciated that we never felt rushed or pressured. If you're looking for a realtor in Orange County, you are unlikely to find one better than Regina. I highly recommend her to all!

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.

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!

Long story short: John's the man…read more Short story long? As with all first-time home buyers, the experience is overwhelming. From understanding your own finances to navigating the real estate market and endless terminology, it's easy to become paralyzed and lost in the storm. This is where John comes in; he is the lighthouse guiding you safely back to harbor. John has deep industry experience. He understands the market, what's out there, and exactly how the process works. Most importantly, he listens. He truly understands your situation and has your best interests at heart. John remembers your goals and what you said would make you happy, using that as a compass for every decision. At times when we couldn't find the right fit and I started to deviate, he would remind me of my original vision to ensure I didn't settle. I'm going to say it twice: he truly has your best interests at heart. I have a tendency to push my limits, and John wasn't afraid to step in and advise me when something might overburden my finances. He isn't just trying to close a deal and meet numbers; he cares about your future. He is incredibly patient. There was definitely a learning curve for me, but John understands that everyone learns differently. He took the time to rephrase complex concepts and provided examples to ensure I fully understood every step. He never made me feel "dumb" for asking questions; you can tell he genuinely cares through his tone and approach. John is also remarkably responsive. Whenever I found a listing with high potential and forwarded it to him late in the day, he would acknowledge and respond promptly. Even when I felt bad for reaching out late, he provided peace of mind by doing his homework immediately. We were often at the property the very next day. He acts fast and efficiently. Finally, he is solution-oriented. There were many times I thought a goal was out of reach, but he would do the research and return with a Plan A, B, and C. This gave me so much hope and reassurance throughout the process. The home search is a roller coaster of emotions, but John is there with you side-by-side from start to finish. You never feel alone, and you never feel doubt with John in your corner. "Looking back at where I started, I am forever grateful for John. He turned what felt like an impossible mountain to climb into a clear path forward. Through his hard work and dedication, I am a proud homeowner in a place I truly love, and I couldn't have done it without him." If you want more than just an agent--if you want an advocate--John is the one to call." Thank you for everything.

I will first state facts and then some very odd things that happened on Zillow afterwards…read moreI have bought and sold five houses in the past ten years and not new to the process and have worked with different agents. The commission structure was low at 4% and I don't need a lot of hand holding so it was attractive. Here is a list of errors. - Two weeks into the agreement we finally get a sign on 6/27 and only after I stressed concern - An old description was used from Zillow or something that was wrong with 1.5 baths 4 bed in the description. Lori copied and pasted this ignoring the description I sent her and not even bothering to proof it. The house is a 2.5 bath 3 bed, totally remodeled which is quite important. This was updated today after pointing it out and asking it to be updated - The photos were from an old listing, before a major remodel. This has been changed after stressing concern - Lori never brought out a camera for professional photos until a started to stress concerns, so the photos were off an Iphone. Photos never made it to the MLS before we fired her. - The photos there were uploaded were sideways in the listing and duplicated. This has since been correct after stressing concern - Lori showed up 40 minutes late for an open house. YEAH, I could understand 15 minutes, but 40 is crazy specially when it's the first time seeing the home. She asked if I was at the home for the open house when she pulled up which thank goodness I wasn't. I could have been a buyer. - Lori no longer works for that office after emailing this to her broker Here are the "odd" things - On Zillow the house came up as sold for 30k less than our asking price shortly after she was fired. The main photo was changed from the outside of the house to the half bath which was mostly consumed by a toilet - On Trulia it's still listed for sale, says Keller Williams but when I call it's Real Estate One. The listing agent is Ivory Clinton and when I called he was more concern about helping me sell my home vs. him not being my agent. Those can't be simple by chance errors. Unprofessional, unethical, fraudulent.

We recently worked with Carly to sell our home and buy a new one here in Orange County. We honestly can't imagine going through this process with anyone else. She sold our home off-market as a pocket listing to close friends of ours (yes, she represented both sides of the deal!) and somehow, we're all still friends. That's how gracefully Carly handles even the most complex, delicate transactions. She's sweet, calm, and genuinely kind...but don't let that fool you; she will stop at nothing to get her clients the best possible home and deal. Carly also navigated a very difficult seller's agent on the purchase of our new home. She handled the situation with unbelievable professionalism, patience, and poise all while keeping a smile on her face and our interests front and center. She's strategic, responsive, intuitive, and deeply committed. You always feel like you are the priority, and you never have to wonder if things are getting handled. She truly restored my faith in realtors. If you're buying or selling in Orange County and want someone who's both in your corner and a complete pleasure to work with call Carly!

We had the pleasure of working with her both as buyers and sellers, and she truly exceeded our expectations on both sides. When we were buying, Carly skillfully navigated a very difficult seller's agent on our behalf and never let the stress get to her--or us. Later, when it came time to sell our own home, she guided us through the process and helped us secure the price we wanted. Carly's combination of industry knowledge, calm confidence, and genuine care made all the difference. We always felt supported and well-informed. If you're looking for a realtor you can fully trust--who will advocate for you and get results--Carly is the one. Highly recommend!

We had to amicably part ways with our prior property manager after our unit was vacant for 4 months and we were so glad to come upon Marshall Reddick.

We had an intake interview with Chris Carlson who answered all of our questions accurately and honestly. Everything that he shared with us about their management style, good and different, was accurate. Our property manager is Oscar Muratalla and he is wonderful and a trustworthy communicator.
