Rob Martin is a very kind, knowledgeable, and communicative person to have as an agent. He…read moreunderstood that my husband and I were trying to purchase our first home and he walked us through what the steps entailed and was patient about repeating the process a few times. When the time came to make an offer on a home/go into escrow, Rob hustled and was constantly communicative with us, the seller's agent, and various 3rd parties for us to quickly close on the house. He has a very calm demeanor, but hustles to get things done efficiently. He turned something that seemed daunting into a very smooth process.

Towards the end my frustration was piling up because I hadn't seen a house that I truly loved. I was ready to buy the next house we saw but he stopped me from doing it. He understood my frustration, but told me to patient and wait for the right one. He promised it would come along, and it did. This is the type of agent you want, someone who has you and your family's best interest at heart. He is an agent that is not in it for the quick deal, he truly wants his clients to find their dream home and to be ecstatic about it. There are many real estate agents out there, but few like Jon. On behalf of me and my family, thank you for everything Jon!

I believe even one star is too generous for Emmett Cahill, broker at QFC Real Estate. He was…read moreunprofessional and insensitive throughout our experience. We renewed a contract for an office that belonged to my 40-year-old son, who sadly passed away last year. Emmett drafted an amendment that included a clause allowing the tenant to make changes to the office without notifying us.He knew we had prior issues with the tenant who removed my late son's valuable furniture, without notifying us and we were unable to recover which was very sad for us. We had to ask him to change that clause after it was already signed. Additionally, he made inappropriate comments about his own client--my tenant--calling him "very difficult" and stating that he, Emmett, was "more like us" (like my husband and me) and that he was on our side. How disloyal to his client. On another occasion, he was extremely rude over the phone and later apologized via email: "I wanted to apologize for the call earlier. I was in the middle of something prior, but I should not have spoken to you that way." This behavior is unacceptable. I rarely write reviews, but I felt it was important to share this experience.

Since a sale and transfer was actually made, in all fairness I am going to add one extra star to…read moreJon's review. Being very new to the home buying experience I made many mistakes in dealing with him, so if you are new to the home buying process or, you are experienced but don't want to work with someone who might take advantage given the chance, be careful! Details below, but to summarize my list of issues in dealing with Jon for those of you who would like to save some time: 1) Dishonesty/Deception 2) Lack of integrity/lacking in professionalism 3) Placing personal gain above his clients 4) Negligence Now to go over it all in a little more detail. This summer I purchased a condo through Jon, though I hope to eventually make money on this deal, the transaction itself has been fraught with financial perils. To point one, I have caught Jon in many demonstrable lies, from small things like lying that he wasn't responding to me related to issues because he had changed his phone number but then later talked to me from that same phone number. Those are small things that are annoying but are benign in comparison to the larger overarching dishonesties. Originally I had applied for this loan through Zillow and after consulting my lender he told me to apply for the property I was pre-approved for and wait for a Zillow realtor to contact me. Shortly I get a call from Jon, he shows me the property and uses a sense of urgency to get me to make an offer, while being very clear that if I make the offer I would forfeit the 1% he chooses to omit that by signing I would be forced to only work with him for 9 months and that he is not in fact affiliated with Zillow.Despite telling him several times about how excited I was about the $5,000 rebate, Jon never once disclosed that he isn't actually with Zillow and just stole a client from them. Fast Forward a little bit and my lender calls me to meet with the realtors, that is when I figured out something had gone wrong. The realtors from Zillow are quite aggravated that Jon had taken a client from them and explain that while this behavior is not illegal it is quite unethical. At this point I can still technically go through with my lender from Zillow and get the rebate and still go through Jon as the realtor, but now Jon starts playing hardball. He says that if I don't go through his lender he won't work with me because he doesn't believe that Zillow can close this transaction... yeah right.Interest rates are going up and I am locked in at a rate, my choices are to wait another year or say screw it and go through Jon and his lender and he knows it. Prior to agreeing to go through Jon, I made sure to get it in text from him to ensure that if I go through him and his lender there would be no added fees or cutback fees, then I would agree to go through him and forget about the $5,000 zillow lender's rebate in hopes of just making the transaction finish.Jon assures me there would be no irregular fees and that no issues would arise from his lender.Of course when the transaction was finished and I was reviewing the final paperwork there were of course a bunch of "Quick Closing Fees"&"Fast Closing Fees" for 700-900$, fees that all got bumped into my escrow account. Worse than that, I have been paying this lender UMW for my state taxes, and at the end of the year I get a letter saying that my taxes have been unpaid, that I am overdue and my property could get a lien on it. Of course I quickly double pay the taxes on my property that I already had paid for the year, after reaching out to Jon and his lender, still have been unable to get any of my money back that I double paid.. They just keep spinning their wheels and refusing to transfer it. Other than that lie, there were many others that also cost me financially.Before selling the property Jon had disclosed that there are going to be repairs done to the property but that it's no big deal because it's just an external project, they'll shut the water off for 1 day and just clean the pipes outside. When the time came around to do the project after the sale was over, I painfully found out that it was an internal project, that there would be a team of 5-8 workers coming in and cutting holes in my house. The holes still haven't been repaired because the company hired by the HOA to do the project went bankrupt even prior to the sale.They had shut off my water for 8-12 hours a day for 2.5-3 months and did heavy construction from inside. As someone who works from home and also had been renting a room in my apartment, this was very costly to me. I had to find new places to work and discount my roommates rent.Overall to describe why it sucked working with Jon is that he was very hands on to try to close the deal as quickly as possible, and then hands off when issues arose around things he had assured me would be fine. There were many other issues I tried to write in but they don't fit in the review.Attached Zillow lender/realtor can corroborate

Knute is the only real estate agent you will ever need to contact. We have purchased and sold two…read morehomes in the last decade with him and I can honestly say that we feel genuinely grateful that he was on our side during such a stressful process. We are constantly recommending him to friends who are in need and will always be grateful for the experience, expertise, and kindness. He is always responsive and informed and constantly smoothing over the process (often before we even know an issue has come up). Our last house purchase was a very nuanced situation and he navigated assuming a VA loan easily. Being a new and difficult process for both us and Knute must have been intimidating but he managed to make the entire transaction somehow pleasant. He is kind, responsive, trustworthy, knowledgable, relatable, helpful, and consistenly goes above and beyond for his clients. He was also going above and beyond for the buyers of our home because their agent was out of state. You want him on your side and I am forever grateful that we have been able to work with him twice.

He was very attentive that he made us feel like we were the only client he was working with. We strongly recommend Knute to anyone who is looking to buy a house, as we would definitely work with him again!!

Working with Farid has been one of the best decisions I've made in real estate--three times…read more He helped me buy and sell three homes, and in every single transaction he exceeded my expectations. From start to finish, Farid was sharp, strategic, and completely dialed in. He doesn't just "list and hope"--he actively positions your property to win. What really sets him apart is his ability to negotiate. On all three deals, he got me more than I was asking for, which still amazes me. That doesn't happen by accident--that's skill, experience, and knowing exactly how to play the market. Beyond that, he made the entire process feel smooth and controlled. Communication was always clear, timelines were tight, and there was never a moment where I felt uncertain or out of the loop. He handles pressure like a pro and makes you feel like you're his only client. If you're serious about buying or selling and want someone who will actually maximize your outcome--not just get the deal done--Farid is the guy you want in your corner. I wouldn't use anyone else.

Gary helped us purchase our first home! We was proactive, responded to all communication very…read morequickly, and advocated effectively for us throughout the process (i.e., getting a competitive offer accepted, negotiating seller credits, and ensuring the escrow process was executed smoothly and completely). As mentioned in other reviews, Gary is realistic, honest, and a man of high integrity. Gary is a stellar residential real estate professional! We will recommend him to people we care about and will work with him for future real estate transactions.

I am currently in the middle of my third real estate transaction with Gary (buying our first home,…read moreselling it now, and buying our new place). I am someone who analyzes every detail and worries about the numbers, so I needed a strategic partner, not just a salesperson. What stands out most is Gary's integrity. During our search, he actually advised us against buying certain homes because he spotted drawbacks I had missed or knew they wouldn't fit our long-term goals. He wasn't trying to close a quick deal; he wanted to make sure the move was actually worth it for us - that we were getting more square footage, accounting for a possible growing family, and other things we've mentioned to him. When it came to selling our current home, I really appreciated how realistic he was about the price. Instead of promising us an inflated number just to get the listing, he gave us a brutally honest, data-backed valuation. He manages expectations perfectly so there are no surprises later. It's honestly wild how dialed-in he is to the San Diego market. He's been doing this for decades, and it shows! He walks into a house and predicts almost exactly what it would sell for (and he was always right). He knew exactly how to negotiate so we didn't overpay, showed us off-market homes we never would have seen on Zillow, and knew precisely when to strike to get our offer accepted. We've talked with other agents through open houses we've casually walked through, but watching Gary work is different; he pulls off these complex moves effortlessly and with such a good nature that you almost forget how sharp the strategy actually is. We are currently trusting him with the complex process of buying and selling simultaneously, and having someone who will give you the unvarnished truth is invaluable. If you want an agent who protects your interests over his commission, Gary is the one.
