They are knowledgeable, responsive, efficient, and, most importantly, they know how to get the deal closed. Buying a home can be stressful, but they made the entire process smooth and straightforward. I've bought multiple homes before and had multiple experiences with other real estate teams that were frustrating, disorganized, and unnecessarily complicated. Cary and Valerie were the complete opposite. They responded quickly, stayed on top of every detail, communicated clearly, and handled everything promptly. If you're looking for a real estate team that is professional, dependable, and truly gets results, I can't recommend Cary and Valerie enough. They are the only real estate team I would confidently recommend to my family and friends!

Absolutely the worst property managers and people in general I've ever had to deal with. In the…read morefirst two weeks of living in the property I literally had to stay home everyday for service calls. Water heater (6 service calls), hot tub, ceiling fan, shower heads, toilet, dishwasher (clogged with food from previous tenant). Inge claimed that she "personally conducted a walk-through). That didn't change the fact that nothing was in working condition and even light fixtures around the house had half of the bulbs burnt out. I used to work in property management and at the very least you put new bulbs in the ceiling fixtures when you do a "walk-through". As I continued to live in the unit it was a battle to get anything fixed at all and even more of a hassle to get it done properly. Whenever I would call for service they would either ignore me or blame the problem on me. There is a huge pine tree on the lot and its roots clog up the drain. I called to have the drain rooted and they told me it was my fault and my responsibility. When sewage started spewing into my front yard I called the health department. I still live in the property, but IPMI no longer "manages" it. Thank God...

Due to circumstances out of our control, we moved three times last year. We found this company when…read morethe place we were going to move fell through, and it's been a great experience from day one. Inge has been one of the best property managers we've ever had. From showing the condo to quickly executing the lease to promptly dealing with problems, Inge and her team anticipated our needs and exceeded our expectations. When we had a plumbing issue, she had someone there immediately. When a problem arose with a neighbor, she quickly rectified it and took charge of communicating with everyone involved and provided solutions. You never know what you're going to get with a landlord or property manager, and we couldn't be more pleased that we stumbled upon this company.

I love living here. The homes are individually owned and while some are rented out by their owners,…read moremore are owner occupied. This makes for a strong community. The connected homes are soundproofed well. Street noise from Beach Blvd. rarely filters through. It's dog friendly with dog owners walking their leashed pets morning and evenings. The HOA fees are low by Orange County standards. Even so, the maintenance and landscaping are maintained on a regular basis and upgraded as needed. Any issue I have had to report to management was handled promptly and professionally. The architectural approval process for my vinyl windows was promptly handled and clearly stated. I'm going to enjoy living here for many many years to come.

The place is nice until certain degree, but the way how the management treats tenants it is really…read morebad. First of all, if you left any visible object inside your parked car a short distance from you residency in the property your car window will be broken by the burglars; and yes all the neighbors know about this situation but the management does not care about it. There are not cameras, they do not want to hire a security guard company or the management did not demonstrate that the police was contacted to patrol the area or just a simply neighborhood watch group or signs....nothing, as a tenant you cannot participate in the home owner association meetings (? what meetings?) Because you are just a tenant -( But pay the rent on time...of course; but you do not have 100% tenant rights) Something really curious, the police it is always there, but morning time patrolling to see if you parked wrong and some cars get tickets, and that is understandable; but the police can also patrol the same area at night; and that should be the manager's job to ask the police to come and patrol this place at night. We lost the electric power in the property...not long ago, since 3am in the morning Saturday and nobody said anything about the reasons or the cause for this problem, the power came back at 5:30 pm....and without electricity there was no breakfast, no pool access, no AC, the refrigerator unfreeze totally and we had a real hard time opening the garage...and you know why?? Because everything is electric.....the management did not say anything at all NOTHING!! Finally, the same person; the manager is never there, but you can see his car parked outside his house; you can knock on the door or window, make phone calls and nothing happens.... it is very simple, he will choose who to help or attend. Think twice if you want to rent or to buy in a place like this. Zero stars for the person called "manager" and zero stars for the company who owns this place. To the company that owns this place....you better send somebody pretending to be a potential tenant or a future owner just to see how your manager works.

When we decided to sell our Cypress Village townhome in early 2026, a call to Julie and Joe Sanchez…read morewas our first step. Their reputation for being the premier real estate agents in the area is well deserved. From our initial meeting, when they conducted a thorough walk through and assessment of our property, Julie and Joe demonstrated such genuine care. They asked pertinent questions about property updates as well as what we enjoyed about our home; making sure not to miss any marketable details. Beyond a price point, they suggested a marketing time line to maximize interest in our property. Their years of working with Cypress Village properties equips them with a deep knowledge of the community, the home owners' association, and the amenities that make this a desirable neighborhood. Julie and Joe also made tactful suggestions on the staging of our home to show it to its best advantage. We were appreciative of all their hard work and guidance which resulted in an offer above asking price the first weekend on the market. If you've ever bought or sold a home you know that's not the end of the story. During the escrow period, they patiently walked us through all the required disclosures, appraisal, and inspection processes. They were so responsive to our questions and concerns, never losing sight of the fact that we were also in escrow on our new home in another state. Their calm reassurance kept our worries in check and the transaction on a timely schedule. We were so impressed by their kind and caring demeanor I joked that if they ever moved on from real estate they'd be excellent marriage counselors! We wholeheartedly recommend Julie and Joe Sanchez from First Team Real Estate. Eileen and Damian Stafford

Dear Joe and Julie,…read more Thank you so much for your outstanding work in selling our home. Since meeting with you in January 2025 and listing our Cypress Village home in March, we have been so impressed. We were thrilled when you secured a full-price offer during our very first open house weekend. Your communication throughout the process was excellent, and you answered all of our questions, making the entire transition smooth and seamless. What we appreciated most was your deep knowledge of the neighborhood, especially knowing your son lives here as well. We would highly recommend you both to anyone looking for real estate services without hesitation. Best regards, Greg & Kim R.

Overall Satisfaction: This has hands down been the best customer service I've ever received. I…read morecan't say enough good things about Sorin, who has gone above and beyond to provide excellent care. I was especially pleased with the final check in and how detailed the inspection was, and especially how prompt the issues were remediated. As a first time homebuyer, I was pretty nervous going into the purchase. I rolled my eyes at the promises made to commit to the warranties. I was so pleasantly surprised when literally every defect was corrected and how easy it was to request service. Customer Care/Service Experience: Sorin deserves a raise! Several raises!!!! We have been so well taken care of. He's regularly gone out of his way to identity defects that my wife and I had missed. He's also been incredibly patient with our many questions and has provided us with incredible peace of mind. I would also like to recognize and thank Mikey and Jorge for their amazing touch ups. They were friendly and a pleasure to work with. Windows/Sliding Glass Doors: There is a LOUD ASS DOG that lives next door (in the other residential neighborhoods we share a border with). His name is Chico. Sometimes he barks all night. The windows pretty much block out 90% of the noise, which is pretty amazing. Plumbing System: Plumbing/toilets overall have been great. Water heats up pretty fast and stays hot. Only needed minor maintenance for one of the toilets where the water kept running, but Sorin was able to schedule a plumber to come fix it literally within days. My only comment is with the shower head in the jack/jill bathroom. Haven't had any issues, per se, but the water pressure and angle of the head is alright at best. That being said, it is the default model so I can't really complain. Cabinets & Drawers: Another shoutout to Sorin for getting us service to replace the underside of a cabinet that experienced shrinkage. Heating & Air Conditioning: Probably the best AC I've had. Left it running all summer without issue and with the solar panels the cost has been insanely low. Doors: No issues with the doors themselves but a lot of the frames were not sealed around the edges, which did let in ants during the summer (caulked?) However, pointed this out to Sorin and got it addressed pretty much immediately (thanks again to Mikey and Jorge). Garage door has been solid so far. Grading & Landscaping: It's been raining A LOT the last 2 weeks. Pleasantly surprised at how effective the french drain has been. Have experience literally zero flooding despite the relentless volume of water coming down. Positioning of the roof gutter/drain to the french drain excellent. Around the community, lot seems to be draining pretty damn well even for the houses that are downhill. Sound Transmission: 12/10 sound insulation. You can hear when neighbors are going up/down stairs in the garage but literally cant hear anything between our shared walls. Exterior Paint: Points off for the material that coats our outside walls and backyard walls, erodes pretty easily with minimal contact from our trashcans. The bottom of a section of our backyard walls has pretty much crumbled away. Appliances: Went with the default appliances. Nothing spectacular but overall pretty good. Expectations: The house wasn't perfect. There were definitely small things that the builders seemed to cut corners on (e.g., the door frames). That being said, overall the build was excellent and because of how good the customer service was (I have to shout out Sorin and team again), I am extremely satisfied with the product.
