It was such an easy and smooth experience selling my house. Rachel, Tom, and Sam were all super helpful and made the process stress-free. They were honest, understanding, and their communication was amazing. Closed fast, no surprises -- would definitely recommend working with them if you're looking to sell. read more

Due to medical needs, my parents have needed to sell their home and move into something more accommodating. I've been helping them look into companies they could go with to sell quickly without the hassle and without the realtor involved to make it easier on all of us. We stumbled on I Buy SD .com because they were suggested by our neighbor who was curious about the company as well. I initially really liked the company because they were San Diego specific and seemed to understand the area. I had already been researching Opendoor and I BUY SD gave us a slightly better offer. So it seemed too good to be true (and it was...) Come the day before we were supposed to close escrow, I was helping my parents with everything and we get a call. I couldn't believe what I heard on the speaker phone. I Buy SD.com said that: sorry, they had to lower the house price by $80,000 less than the signed contract stated and close five days later than the signed contract stated in order to close now. I was flabbergasted. This is a company where contracts were already signed and paperwork already in place and they chose to drop this bomb and force the house to be a lower price, likely knowing that we had to close or else the new house wouldn't go through in time. Talk about shock and regret. Now we've realized they said several things in the process to us that turned out to not be true, like they were sending a design time to measure the house and it actually ended up being other investors!! That feels really deceitful to me! I wish I had never stumbled across this company and I wish I could have kept my parents far away from it. What kind of company does that to people the day before you're supposed to close escrow? I definitely wanted to write this review as a big BUYER BEWARE! I would never ever wish this experience on someone else, not even a mortal enemy. The stress, pain, and suffering this has caused us is absolutely beyond words. I have been in tears ever since this happened and I'm not sure how to even recover. On the I Buy SD.com website they claim they want to help San Diegans sell their houses as painlessly as possible but from this experience we had it really feels like the exact opposite :( read more

I was told after the walkthrough to sign off a checklist. I was told specifically these were estimates only. I got a bad feeling which I should have trusted. I preferred the other buyer who put actual cash in my hand to lock in the deal. When I told the company I wished to move forward with the other buyer, I was told that I had signed legal documents and they slapped me with a lawsuit. My neighbors knew the market at the time, and one of them buys and sells homes for a living. He said he could have gotten me much more but couldn't step in with the suit in place. It was a low-ball bid, and the whole transaction was conducted in an unscrupulous manner. But such is their reputation in San Diego. read more

Very disappointed but I understand. I had issues with the property but was very transparent since the start. They say they will purchase a property with code violations but that's not true. They don't even buy the property. My reason for the 2 stars? Their lack of communication! They kept saying they would let me know but never said anything. I had to keep asking for updates. If the deal don't work it don't work. Earnest money was never deposited either. Honestly if they would have been more transparent I would have given them better rating read more

Their mode of operation is to make you think they will pay high price and before the date of actual close, the will let you know that they cannot offer what was discussed. They will then lowball you and if desperate will accept any price.... Dont do it. One more thing , as a former realtor, if the buy does NOT deposit earnest deposit, the contract is NULL AND VOID. This is their loophole so if you try to pursue legal action you will not have such the case. read more

The buyer Paul Green (I Buy SD) presented offers in which he did not put a deposit down at initiation of escrow. He claimed a deposit would be made. He then tried renegotiating the buy price as the closing date approached and meanwhile had listed it on the market for &100K more than he wanted to buy it at. The company does not operate ethically and looks to take advantage of owners not represented by agents. Stay away!!!! read more

I buy SD.com bought my neighbors property and I entertained maybe selling mine too. I called and spoke to Danny at I buy SD.com and he asked me if I talked to my neighbor Dave. I said no and why do you ask. Danny said no reason just wondering. Right then I thought something was fishy. Danny also told me that they bought the house from Dave for 1.1 million. I thought that was fishy to as the house was valued at 1.7 million. I immediately contacted Dave as I felt like I was being lied to. Come to find out they ripped Dave off and they lied to me about it. They agreed to1.45 million and then after he moved all of his family's belongings out and shipped it to his new home state, they changed the amount agreed upon because they knew he would probably not contest it as he was in a bad situation. The people that work there are disgusting, deceitful human beings. Human beings is being nice. Dave is a good man and a combat veteran with disabilities and he risked everything for our country and if that's how this company treats our veterans then I want nothing to do with them!! I am also a veteran and like anyone else, I do not like be lied to or stolen from. Further more, I Buy SD.com is full of unethical, immoral people. read more

They lie! They tell you they will put money in an escrow account but then after you pack, ready to move. On the day of key drop off they back out. Or offer significantly less. Then they don't give you the escrow money and you are left holding the bag. I get nauseous every time i see their commercials. Very dishonest read more

Do not do it unless you can afford to lose $1,000s of dollars and time. I enter into aan agreement , they said was CASH. They then told me I had to evict my tenant (losing rent) then it would be 2 months . 5 days before we were suppose to close they backed out saying they could not get financing. I lost thousands of dollars paying HOA fees, taxes, insurance with no money coming in to accomadate them. read more

These guys were awesome! Start to finish, their team made our transaction simple, friendly, professional, straightforward, no hidden terms, very communicative, could not have asked for a more seamless and stress-free experience in order to achieve our goals! I would highly recommend this team for any of your sale needs! read more

My original review was completed during the early stages. For a final review I will say this was a very good experience. They made everything simple and answered questions in a timely manner. Closed quickly with just a few very short administrative delays. They met all our financial and logistical needs and made closing easy. You will have peace of mind knowing they will do everything they say. Their offer was very fair and beat other buyers who I felt really low balled us. Cassie was great to work with, so YES, 5 Stars earned. read more

I have nothing but great things to say about Angel and her team at I Buy SD. The entire transaction was seamless--they were consistently reliable, professional, and always just a phone call, text, or email away. Truly outstanding professionals. read more

I had a great experience working with Sasha, she's super responsive and easy to work with. I would highly recommend!

f you're looking for professionals who stand by their word, I would advise staying away from I Buy SD. They do not honor their offers. I initially spoke with Tom and explained our situation--he provided a fair and reasonable offer. I let him know I would discuss it with my husband and get back to him. When I followed up with Tom about a week later, he said he needed to finalize the numbers with his boss and would call me back. However, instead of having the decency to call, he simply sent a text with a significantly lower offer than what was originally quoted. When I questioned the change, he made excuses, blaming it on the company having 14 properties sitting on the market and losing money. This was both unexpected and very disappointing. read more

We had a hard to sell home, being a dome. I buy sd came thru. It took a little longer, but we got the original price they quoted and closed. Thanks to Sara, litia and Tom read more

Working with Leila and her team has made the home process a breeze. I'm very satisfied and this will be our third home working with her. Thank you Leila and her team for their efforts! read more

As a realtor, I Buy SD is the best cash home buyer in town! They always perform, have great communication, and a fantastic staff. Should you find yourself needing a fast cash offer, I highly recommend giving them a call. read more

I have emailed and called them several times asking to stop to mail me their junk mail without any effect. If they don't have the good ethics to respect this simple request to stop to trash my mailbox with their ridiculous way bellow market offers, imagine what they would do to you when money is involved. My house is not for sale but if it was, I would stay away from them. read more

Don't bother trying to deal with Ibuysd I talked with them for 2 months and finally made an appt.to have them come out to my home for assessment. The day of appt., in fact 45 min before appt they called to cxl. They said "I'm sorry to cxl but we decided your home wasn't a good fit for us". Pitiful business practice if you ask me. Horrible read more

Hi Danny, for the past 2 months you have sent me mail offering to buy my house. I finally called you today March 13 to come by and look at my house and show you documents of a previous illegal transaction. You scheduled 1pm, you knew my email. Well, you didn't email me OR show up, OR call my friends phone I used. When I called you just now you told me my house was listed as sold. I SPECIFICALLY told you I have the documents that show it's false. You didn't offer an apology for the no show or not even an email? Dude, that's disrespectful of my time and hope. read more

BIG HEADS UP: First of all, this company has the highest profile in San Diego by virtue of their endless TV ads and mailers with random lowball offers indicated on phony checks. As such, there's a huge marketing budget that first needs to be covered in buying your house. And, because they are obviously busy, their attitude in presenting an offer is take it or leave it. Not to say they aren't nice...they are simply making low offers they hope will be accepted by desperate people. This appears to be an example of bait and switch methodology. I would imagine their strategy is always the same: start by quoting the inquiring seller a compellingly high number on the phone, and email a contract example with that information. Of course, that's not going to be the final number after they do a cursory inspection. Expect a number at least 10% below their initial quote, with a litany of things they would need to remedy to make it sellable so that they will profit in reselling. Understandable, but just disappointing after all the back and forth blather we weathered. This "process" seemed like a huge waste of our time, given the lack of actual candor. The gist of their pitch is the elimination of selling costs and realtor commissions, which is valid, but I actually think it makes more sense to find a realtor who can suggest and implement improvements with you, then list the property as high as is reasonable, and negotiate the commission rate. The other thing to try is to precipitate a bidding war by calling EVERYBODY you can find in the house flipping business--of which there are MULTITUDES these days--and see where it goes. When the federal reserve starts lowering the interest rates soon, the feeding frenzy will make selling at your target price even easier. Melissa N. ("business manager"): please do NOT post another patently insincere response here...no one cares. read more

Just completed closing on my parent's home and cannot sing enough praises of "I buy SD/GG Homes". My senior citizen parents had received a notice that the city would be putting my parent's home into receivership due to severe neglect and disrepair in less than a month. This was a world turned upside down crisis for my parents and I live on the other side of the country. Once I became aware of the notice we were looking at the reality that we did not collectively have the money to make the repairs and once the city put it into receivership and made the repairs, the house would have to be sold to pay the repair costs as well as legal costs. The city had also deemed the house uninhabitable and we had nowhere to turn. I was put into contact with Matt of "I buy SD/GG Homes" from a relative and within a week Seth visited the house and made my parents a very fair offer, which they accepted. From that point a ROCK STAR closing manager named OLIVIA took the ball and held our hand through the whole process. Again I'm on the other side of the country helping my parents through this. Olivia was my constant point of contact and returned every phone call and text on a pretty much daily basis. She is extremely kind compassionate and understanding of me pestering her every day. At some point the city was going to send fines for violations to my parents. Olivia worked tirelessly with the city to get them to hold off as we were going through the process while keeping me apprised of every communication. Olivia wanted to stick with us through the very end until the funds from the sale were sitting in my parent's bank account, and she did. Jessica was there for escrow and responded to my emails and phone calls very promptly. She was very helpful keeping me in the loop so I could help my parent's with details. Bottom line there were no surprises from "I buy SD/GG Homes". Everything Matt, Seth, Olivia and Jessica did, and stated, from the beginning went just as they said. The offer was never changed (again a very fair offer considering the condition of the house), and "I buy SD/GG Homes" came through and now my parents are in great shape financially and ready to begin a new golden chapter of their lives free from any financial worry for the first time in their lives. In my parents case I will say "I buy SD/GG Homes" were life-savers in this context. That is my experience with them. Thank you Matt, Seth, Olivia and Jessica!!! read more

Very easy hassle free way to sell your home. You can walk away worry free. My closing agent Nik did a great job handling the selling/buying process. Ask for him to handle your sell. read more

I contacted this business to sell my mobile home. Several of the people who work there are nice. I had a terrible experience with Seth the main man. Sight unseen he told me my mobile home was only worth $80,000. Okay later on down the line he was not so nice and offered me a low ball estimate of $30,000. What a joke and slap in the face. Then he said we won't work with you. I found a MUCH more PROFESSIONAL realtor to buy my mobile home. This guy is shady. I wouldn't recommend doing business selling your home with them. Mine was very unpleasant. read more

This team was highly respectful, and the program they offer is smooth and efficient. I would definitely recommend them to others for selling their house. Thank you. read more

I recently sold a rental condo I had to this business. First let me start by saying yes, I got offers in the mail from them that were higher than what they actually offered me, but come on people, they have not seen the inside of what you are selling. Also, they are in the business of making money so of course they are not going to offer you what you think it is worth. Everything went basically smoothly. What They offered me they stuck to. Everyone I worked with, Tom, who made the offer after he looked at the unit, Danielle, who was my point of contact through the rest of the transaction, Ray who talked me through something, and others I talked to were all very nice, professional and took time to explain things to you. They all got back to you quickly. They also picked a very good title company to put it all together and they answered all my questions also. read more

Lydia , a closing manager, at GG Homes (I Buy SD) was incredible to work with. The home selling process was smooth and timely. Lydia communicated frequently which was very much appreciated. Lydia, as well as Brianna and GG Homes, made the home sale process easy. Lydia was very easy to get a hold of and was flexible with our requests. I strongly recommend this team when selling a home and accepting a cash offer. read more

We had a great experience with GG homes. Their customer service is top notch. I definitely recommend transacting with them. They were fair, easy to work with, and flexible. We appreciate all they did to facilitate the transaction. Thanks again, team at GG homes. read more

I got a chance to work with Megan and she was extremely helpful and super communicative. Highly recommend them!

Me and my family have made numerous requests for this company to stop hounding us. we've returned their letters, we've called them, we've texted them, emailed them. They are harassing the elderly people in this household too. When I researched them, can't find an owner. Just shell companies that I can see. When I called them, they refuse to give owners information. All the appearances and actions of a scam company. Run the other way!! read more

Close! Very misleading and they breach contracts. They get you in a contract then market your property at a higher price before escrow closes. If they don't find a buyer at a profit, they back out of the contract. Very bogus. They also failed to deposit the earnest deposit with escrow so they are not out. But you are! read more

Nik Mazzola was very attentive and helpful to make the entire process smooth for our family. Definitely would recommend!

Pushy. Takes advantage of you. Lies about your profit amount! You MUST have a real state lawyer when dealing with this team. Seth, Rachel, Chase was who I had displeasure with working with. 0/10 recommend. Biggest mistake I made of my life was selling to them. The hardship I am faced with due to their lies/pushy behavior is unfortunate. read more

I was super hesitant as I didn't know anyone that used this company yet. I read so many reviews and they are also true. I had a great experience. I had a lot of anxiety and lots of questions and Megan and Seth were nothing but helpful and patient with me. She went above and beyond to make the process Seamless. Definitely recommend read more

I buys.d. Was great to do business with. They met all our needs. We worked with Seth B. and Rachel Z.. They were highly competent, kind, helpful and patient. Rachel walked us through all our questions and technical issues. We highly recommend them! read more

Henry and the entire GG Homes group should be trusted as one of San Diego's best home buyers.

Gio was great to work with, and made every effort possible to assist me in making a deal with I Buy SD! I hope to have an opportunity to do business with him again soon read more

Buying with IBUYSD is a really smooth process! Derya is there to answer every single one of my many, many questions, very patiently and truthfully. read more

We had an agreement for I Buy San Diego to purchase our home. They forgot about the agreement for about the first 5 months. They matched us with an attorney to help us with the probate on the house, who also forgot about us for several months. At the end of probate, I Buy San Diego, offered us about $75,000 less than the original offer, which we refused. I will NEVER refer them to anyone!! Worst experience!! read more

Henry and Seth helped my dad with his real estate transaction, and everything went smoothly ! Highly recommended!
