I have been working with real estate agents for 20+ years. James Dye is the best real estate agent…read moreI have ever known. He help me to buy a home a couple years ago. Now he just closed a sale for me as a listing agent. James inspected the house and gave me a list of what he recommended to be done to get the best price. After that, he helped me to contact all reliable professionals to do the work. Within the 1st day on the market, we had 5 buyers come to see the house and got 3 offers at the end of the very same day - all above the asking price! The 2nd day on the market, we had 5 more buyers to come, and got a few new offers; and 2 return buyers from the 1st day of showings came and presented all new offers. From all the offers (from 2 days of showings) we chose 4 offers which were $100,000+ above the asking price for the house in its as-is conclusion - the chosen buyer came $120,000 above the asking price, full cash, all contingencies removed, escrow was closed in less than 2 weeks! BTW - we had 2 back-up offers, just in case if something will not work right with the first buyer; all the offers were $100,000+ above my asking price. I have never experienced anything like that before. Fantastic! When you have the best agent, you have the best outcome!

You simply cannot beat his professionalism, experience-based knowledge, and responsiveness. It had been an arduous time for the family and it was especially important to us that the home move quickly and easily; at a good price. James came through for us. James sat down with us to discuss and understand our particular needs and preferences and informed us what our options were. From beginning to end he was always available to answer questions and address any concerns. We would highly recommend James to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy real estate agent, especially during a vulnerable time.

While I'm originally from San Diego, I'm unfamiliar with the real estate market other than looking at properties on Zillow. While talking to a childhood friend, she recommended her realtor Erin and gave me her number. It felt too intrusive to call her personal cellphone so I decided to go to her website to learn more about her and ultimately decided to call the general number. Well, guess who answered?! lol Erin. I had to mute the phone shortly after she answered because I was awkwardly giggling to myself like a crazy person. I guess I just figured someone from her team would answer so it's funny I ended up talking to her anyway. We had a nice conversation. While I had many questions, she patiently answered them all. She offered locations to consider in my price range, townhomes and single family homes and places that don't charge an HOA. I thought HOA's were only on condo's, derp. Erin demonstrated to me that she's more interested in the relationship than the transaction and I respect that. We went ahead and scheduled an appointment at her office next week so she can help me with planning.

It was time for my mom to finally downsize to a home which would be more manageable; square footage to yard maintenance; for someone in their 80's. Therefore, I searched Yelp and after viewing the realtors on Yelp, Erin Wade stood out even before I read her reviews. I called Erin and set up a meet and greet with my mom and husband to discuss options for selling and buying a home in the area. From starting to finish, Erin was friendly, professional, and went above and beyond to make the entire process smooth, stress-free and successful for my mom who has never had to deal with selling and buying a home for over 30+ years. Erin is incredibly knowledgeable about the market, communication was always clear and timely, and she responded to all texts and/or emails in a timely matter even while out of town for family event. If it just so happened Erin was not available, she assigned someone from her team to cover in her absence. Erin made sure we were kept in the loop on any information about the property my mom was selling and the one she was purchasing. Erin really catered to my mom's needs and to my husband and my expectations during the process. Overall, Erin made us feel we were the only customer even though we know that is not true. We; my mom, husband and I, are grateful to have found Erin Wade and her team to help my mom sell her home and find her forever home. If you are looking for a great, reliable, friendly and knowledgeable Realtor. Erin Wade is that Realtor. I will definitely call Erin Wade when I am in the market to sell my home.

I recently worked with Rick Solo (Villalobos and Solo Realty and Lending Group) in selling a condo…read more The service I received from Rick was exceptional and by far the best real estate experience I have ever had. From the time of our first meeting to the end of Escrow, Rick and the team provided five-star service. Rick was professional, honest, transparent and incredibly knowledgeable about the current market and strategies for moving forward. I needed to upgrade and make some improvement in the condo prior to listing, and Rick took care of everything with design, purchases, contractors, expense tracking and necessary oversite. He kept me informed every step of the way and always respected my input. As a result, we had a healthy return on the investment when the house sold within 2 weeks of being listed. I know that if, and when, I sell another property, he will be my first choice. To summarize, Villalobos and Solo Realty are the best! James L.

She's professional, polite, proactive, punctual, organized, positive, knowledgeable... I was referred to Lindsay by a Northern California realtor, as I was moving from Northern California to San Diego. First, we had a quick chat to discuss what I was looking for and we really connected. (So much so our initial conversation was almost 2 hours but seemed like 30 minutes.) Within a week Lindsay connected me with a great lender and provided me with additional information to help understand the homebuying process. (As a first-time home buyer there were many terms and processes that were foreign and confusing.) Over a span of a couple months Lindsay and I texted, called, emailed, and I flew to meet her on a few occasions to view properties. Although it was a little complicated purchasing a home in San Diego from Northern California, Lindsay made it work with ease. I always felt well taken care of with minimal stress and I trusted Lindsay was on top of things. Even things I didn't think of or wasn't aware of, Lindsay thought of and communicated everything to ensure I understood and was up-to-date. I couldn't have asked for a better realtor. Lindsay really is the best and I would definitely recommend her. I will follow her anywhere! Thank you, Lindsay and team!

Going into the process, we had a rough idea of what we were looking for in terms of pure specs (eg: number of bedrooms, square footage, etc.). Kathleen helped get us setup within her company's listing site and also recommended some zip codes to look in to help narrow down our search. We prepared a list of houses we were interested in and that very same weekend, we were able to meet up with Kathleen to begin our touring. We ended up looking at nine houses, including a few we added last minute, which Kathleen was happy to help with. During our touring, Kathleen was pointing out both flaws and positives in homes. As we haven't lived in an actual house for years, Kathleen also corrected us when we thought certain things were weird but were actually just modern trends in newer homes. We ended up liking two houses enough to put out bids, which Kathleen handled the day after our touring. To our surprise, we ended up winning the bid on our number one pick. Based on what we'd been reading around the internet and hearing from friends who recently purchased homes, we were expecting a very painful process, but we lucked out on the bidding part of it. We did encounter more challenges along the way, such as the seller (an iBuyer) being very slow to respond and saddling us with an equally slow escrow company at first. Kathleen fought for us every step of the way though, including negotiating for a decent-sized credit to help us deal with some repairs our new home will need. In the end, we went from "looking to buy a home" to closing in a month. Even with the delays caused by the seller and first escrow company, we were still able to close on the expected date in our timeline. Thank you very much Kathleen, we'll forever be appreciative for you helping us in the search for our new home as we prepare for the next chapter of our life. And she even bought us a cake and boba, too!
