I visited an apartment that, Comet was renting. I was given some information about the utilities. When I received the lease, it didn't match the information that I was given previously. Comet refused to refund my application fee. Booo! read more

We went looking for a realtor to meet our unique needs and we found that and so much more. We cannot say enough wonderful things about Comet Realty, Tim, Haley and their staff.

We have now used them to buy and sell our homes, it's so great to find people you can trust. read more

Worked with Comet Realty for thirteen years as a renter. Haley was always communicative, kind, prompt, and receptive to any issues that arose in a fourplex over a decade and a half. When I'm ready to buy a home I will definitely come back to Comet Realty for help in that area read more

We had a great experience working with Brian Gust at Comet Realty. He is super-responsive and, based on our needs, found us several properties in the area to look at. Through his efforts, we were able to find a home that we loved in Arroyo Grande. Brian made the buying process easy to understand and helped us navigate the necessary steps (offer, inspection, appraisal, financing, etc.). My partner and I would highly recommend him for his great service! read more

Comet Realty was the property manager for a rental house I lived in for two years in San Luis Obispo. I cannot thank them enough for providing such a reliable, kind-hearted, attentive, and all around wonderful experience throughout my first rental process. Hayley is just the best! She is very responsive if any problem arises. When the pandemic affected some of my home's employment, she was incredibly understanding and ensured our rent would be affordable during this hard time. Hayley even helped me secure a new apartment when I was ready to move! You cannot go wrong here. 5 stars all the way! read more

I had a great experience with Comet Realty & would highly recommend them when looking for a property management company in SLO. Layne was my property manager for just over 2.5 years and also helped managed us through the property sale process. She was very informative, friendly & thorough when educating my wife & I on our tenant rights and abilities. Not to mention how responsive she was to our needs. She always gave us ample heads up when service appointments were scheduled on the property & communicated to us each step along the way. Not an easy task for anyone involved in a tenant occupied property sale during COVID however we were grateful for Layne's above and beyond service to us. All protocols were followed & she was very reasonable throughout the entire process. THANK YOU! read more

The only good thing this company did was not respond. Ended up with a better house, I appreciate your negligence.

Rented a house through Comet Realty in San Luis Obispo and Hayley was my landlord. I cannot say enough great things! Hayley was always very quick in responding to any questions or concerns I had, and would promptly schedule repair appointments for any needs I had. She made the entire renting process a breeze from start to finish, and is one of the friendliest people I know. Would highly recommend renting through Comet Realty and Hayley! read more

Tim is awesome! I highly recommend working with Comet Realty when buying a home. My husband and I moved to San Luis Obispo from Seattle and were familiar with the market (so we thought). Tim sat with us, listened to our wants and expectations, and the next day, we were off looking at home possibilities. After a couple of showings, we narrowed our search and found our beautiful retirement home near our grandchildren, with a low maintenance yard, and within our retirement budget. Thanks Tim. read more

We worked with Tim and Hayley at Comet Realty to purchase a rental unit when our son started school at Cal Poly a few years ago. They worked with us to understand exactly what we were looking for. More importantly, they used their extensive knowledge of the local San Luis Obispo market and property management experience to guide us into a purchase that has been a solid income generating investment from the first month. We were so pleased with our experience during the purchase process that we decided to have them handle our property management services on an ongoing basis. We've found them to be responsive and straightforward with a good dose of humor thrown in to keep it interesting! They are always willing to provide information and advice, even for other real estate matters not related to our SLO property. It definitely feels like a relationship and not just a transaction. read more

Hayley Townley is a miracle worker! She sold our home to a cash buyer in less than a week and we got what we wanted. We are out of state and in the middle of moving so when our renter said she was leaving at the end of the month we were overwhelmed. Hayley listed our home on a Monday and sold it the following Friday. She helped us with the cleaning and located a carpet cleaner. She was there to help every step of the way and reduced our stress immediately. She always answered our calls and emails in a very timely manner. We cannot recommend her enough! read more

This is a company of scammers, they took twice money for a rental application from my son and my wife, and didn't even bother to answer the phone after the application was submitted. read more

Whether you are looking to buy or sell, Comet is your company if you are looking to work with reasonable, knowledgeable, professional, and down-to-earth folks. What makes Comet different from other Realtors is that they are honest, competent, honest, fun, honest, and did I mention HONEST? I have been through the home thing a few times now, and I was glad to have Tim and Hayley Townley representing me. I never felt they were trying to sell me something that was out of my price range; or something that was right for them and not for me; or something that would not meet my needs. They were attentive and listened to our requests, likes and dislikes. We are now in a home that is an absolute dream. Okay, for those of you that think I'm exaggerating, it's 12 blocks from the beach, has first and second floor views of the ocean, a separate (not to mention HUGE) master suite, and that's just to mention a few of the things we love about our house. We will don't ever plan on selling this place (it was a great deal for what we got). Even if we have to move from the area, we know we will always have the perfect home to retire/return to when we are ready. My first experience was in selling my home at the beginning of the downturn of the housing market in 2006/2007. I thank my lucky stars for Tim and Hayley for their smart and professional handling of selling my house. A lot of properties were still not sold more than a year later and it only took them three months (beginning in December, which for all of you know is not a particularly good time for selling property in a downward market) to get my house sold. It was due to their savvy and knowledge that they were able to move the house and get it sold for a fantastic price. read more

Keith, my property manager, was a professional from start to finish. If you live in SLO, and want reliable, fair property managers, do yourself a favor and use Comet. read more

Comet Realty (Keith) has been managing my rental for 1 year now, and they are simply fantastic. From the initial visit to finding a tenant to actually managing the property, they have been timely, professional and a pleasure to work with. I also get the impression that they treat their tenants with respect and are looking out for both renter and tenant. Recommended! read more

Had a great showing with Hailey one of the realtors and was told I would be contacted after they showed it to one more group. I never heard back and was ghosted for five days even after making follow up attempts. I tried calling Tim to see if he could contact Hailey and he was very rude and brushed me off by saying you don't need to be talking to me call her. Ended up with a better house. Thanks for not calling me back ! read more

Hayley Townley of Comet Realty is amazing. We listed our home in Arroyo Grande with her and purchased our next home in Nipomo with her help. All along the way, Hayley was there for us, giving us advice, answering all questions throughout the process. She is completely respected by other brokers, loan agents, escrow companies, and repair people. Whenever I called someone and said Hayley referred me, they snapped to attention and gave me the BEST service. The whole double move process took six months, during which time Hayley helped us avoid a big mistake, steered us to our new (perfect for us) home, sold our large home to the right buyers, and kept us sane throughout the process. And she can also let her hair down and laugh a ton when appropriate! Thank you Hayley and Comet Realty! read more

If you are looking to purchase property on the Central Coast, call Comet Realty. I yelp'd (is that a thing? newby here) and contacted Tim 3 years ago. We're closing on our third rental next month. All three located, negotiated, purchased, and managed by Tim and Hayley @ Comet. If you want someone to work on your behalf rather than work for a commission, Comet is the way to go. read more

Comet Realty! Love them! Tim and Hayley have been managing our rental property in Pismo Beach for over two years and I can't say enough good things about the service we receive. I highly recommend them for all your real estate needs! Thanks Tim and Hayley! read more

I was looking to buy a home in the Pismo Beach, Shell Beach, San Luis Obispo area. Hayley from Comet Realty came highly recommended and SHE DID NOT DISAPPOINT!! She is an expert in her market. She listened to my likes, dislikes, goals, budget, timing etc. We toured 5 - 7 homes and I literally could have purchased the first home she showed me! She is well versed in the school districts, neighborhoods, hospitals, shopping districts etc. We also needed to facilitate a 1031 Exchange and she had all of the expertise in this area as well. I highly recommend Hayley for all of your real estate needs on the central coast. read more

In working with Hayley Townley, I enjoyed the area expertise and flexibility she provided while I was a downtown SLO renter. Always easy to communicate with and never failed to answer a question. Covid rules were always taken seriously. Enjoyed my time working with Comet Realty. read more

Keith Silva, of Comet Realty, has been my property manager for the past two years. I can't say enough nice things about him. He quickly responds to any issues that come up and either does little repairs himself or sends the appropriate technician. I highly recommend Comet Realty!! read more

Very friendly and always prompt about repairs! Highly recommend using Comet for your property management and rental needs!

We have just completed our second property purchase with Hayley at Comet Realty. Not just a great business relationship, but tremendous fun! Hayley is tireless, extremely smart and knowledgeable about all things real estate - homes, rentals, investments, leases, tenants, crazy clients like us. She knows everybody you need to know. She knows where to look, what to look for and how to get it. She took very good care of us in a difficult transaction the first time around, found us our dream house, way beyond what we had hoped for. Then she found us a fantastic investment property, easy, painless, the best possible experience. She really, really cares. 100% confident, 100% professional, just the absolute best. read more

Worked with Comet Realty these past few years on a home we owned. Upon hiring Hayley she completely turned the rental experience around in a positive way! Any questions (by me or the tenants) or problem was taken care of in such a timely matter we were blown away at the professionalism both Hayley and Tim showed us! Recently, we decided to sell our property. Hayley and Madison took on the challenge and got us a very fair price in a short amount of time! We could not be more pleased with their work and appreciate them enough to say I would not use any other Realtor in the San Luis area! read more

Hayley has been the property manager at my condo for all 3 years that I lived there. I go to cal poly, and I hear from all my peers about landlord/property problems all the time. I have never experienced any problems with hayley, she has been easy to communicate with, reasonable, and overall wonderful to work with. She's the best ! read more

If you're looking for personalized service and a true ambassador to the greater, San Luis Obispo area, look no further than Hayley Townley and Comet Realty. Upon a visit to Morro Bay, Hayley took my husband and I on a 4-hour tour of a large chunk of the county. She knew that we were thinking of relocating to the area, from Chicago, IL. Since we were pretty ignorant of the area, Hayley educated us, thoroughly, about the different towns, price points, pros & cons, job opportunities and where to buy the best, roadside produce! If we do choose S.L.O. for our relocation needs, Comet Realty will be the first phone call we make! read more

Tim has been a pleasure to work with in helping us purchase our future retirement home in Los Osos. Tim was responsive yet patient and gave us an honest assessment on whether homes were overpriced and areas to avoid. He's not in it to make a quick sale but really wants his clients to feel they made a great purchase at a fair price. I will definitely use Comet Realty for future purchases and sales. read more

Had an overall bad experience renting from this company. Keith was difficult to work with because he always took a while to reply to emails. We had a pretty significant mold problem and it took them a WHILE to act on it. Overall I would not recommend using this company to rent or to manage your property. read more

We ended up renting from Tim and Haley when we moved to SLO in 2013 and they were amazing landlords. Couldn't have been happier with how they treated us and how they responded to home repairs. At one point they even got us a new, better, bigger fence! What could have been better?! Our move-out was simple and easy, and they even recommended us to our future landlord. When we are ready to buy - we will be sure to use them :) Thanks Tim and Haley! read more

I bought my house in 1999, Hayley from Comet Realty took me around to houses in the San Luis area for about a year (she was VERY patient with me). As a single mom with 3 kids I needed just the right place for just the right amount of money. When we found just the right one she walked me through every step of the process (I still chuckle when I think of "press hard 6 copies.") As my kids grew up and moved out I began thinking about downsizing, this time Tim was my house guide. They both are the most amazing people, so kind and so knowledgeable about the business, and to put the icing on the cake, they have the best sense of humor too! Perhaps I abuse my client-Realtor privileges but I still call them for all kinds of questions and they never hesitate to help me. Thanks Hayley and Tim, Comet Realty totally rocks! read more

Realtors. Property management. Just the words alone can cause churning in the pit of your stomach. Unless you add Comet Realty. Then everything changes. They take the stress out of the entire experience AND make it fun. If I had to choose five words? Honest, integrity, knowledgeable, dependable, and you know they are on your side for the entire process. (OK that is more than five) It doesn't HAVE to be stressful and Hayley and her team prove that. Yay for Comet Realty! read more

Tim and Hayley are both fantastic Realtors on the Central Coast. They have been the Realtors for my wife and I for several years and after we purchased three houses with them we have determined that there isn't anyone better than them. They're truly exceptional and have a vast amount of Central Coast market knowledge. I wouldn't want anyone else to represent me in a purchase or sale because they simply get the job done and will not let you down. Their level of customer service, determination, and work ethic surpass the other Realtors we have used in the past and I look forward to using them again soon. Thanks again Tim and Hayley - you guys are the best! read more
