From the very beginning, Theresa took the time to really understand what we were looking for and what mattered most to us. She never made us feel rushed or pressured, and instead approached everything with patience, honesty, and genuine care. It was clear that we weren't just another transaction--we were people she truly wanted to help. What stood out most to me was how responsive and thoughtful Theresa was throughout the entire process. No question was too small, and no concern was ever brushed aside. She always made sure we felt informed and confident in our decisions, which meant a lot during such an important moment. Beyond that, Theresa is incredibly knowledgeable and skilled. Whether it was navigating negotiations, handling unexpected challenges, or offering practical advice, she consistently went above and beyond to make sure everything worked out in our best interest. I'm genuinely grateful we had the chance to work with Theresa, and I wouldn't hesitate for a second to recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. You'll be in excellent hands.

Katherine Kim, without a doubt, is the best real estate agent my wife and I have ever worked with!…read more With her expertise and knowledge of the Orange County market, Katherine provided us with a plan that ultimately led us to purchasing the perfect home that fit our needs. Katherine's dedication to us was key because we had placed an offer on another home only to see the home, we would eventually buy listed on the market couple hours later. Katherine quickly pivoted to contacting the seller's agent and getting us a viewing of the home. We submitted an offer that same day and it couldn't have worked out better! Katherine's professionalism and planning was exemplary. She provided us with valuable information about the community we purchased our new home in which confirmed our decision was the correct one. Katherine's support and dedication to us during the entire process was simply awesome! Thank you, Dan Choi Real Estate! Katherine, thank you so very much! We were very fortunate to have you as our real estate agent!

When we wanted to sell our home in Fullerton, we interviewed three different agents and team Liz was hands and shoulders better than the other two. They identified areas that needed to be improved in the house and got us quotes for painting, power washing, carpet/tile cleaning and repair, and carpet replacement. They made everything very easy for us in what is naturally a stressful process. When we moved out of the property, they kept and eye on it and ensured that everything that needed looking after was taken care of. After the house was on the market, they followed up with the agents of prospective buyers, managed the offers and asked all our questions about disclosures. Their team is a joy to work with and we were very pleased with the outcomes.

When it comes to finding someone who will work for you, Vickie checks all the boxes. We were looking to close escrow within a tight timeframe and Vickie made sure that nothing was missed. She coordinated between escrow, title, seller, vendors and us on countless occasions far exceeding what the expected responsibilities would typically be of a realtor. Vickie not only fulfills her responsibilities, but she anticipates the next question you will ask and even answers the questions you don't think of asking. Most importantly, Vickie is a great communicator. She made sure that we were up to date on every single detail of the transaction, big or small. We felt confident throughout the purchase process. I would not hesitate to use Vickie as my realtor again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an experienced Orange County realtor who goes above and beyond for her clients.

She's knowledgable, organized, dependable, honest, and goes above and beyond in just above every aspect of the job. We both have very high standards for people we work with, and Vickie has set a new standard for how real estate agents should be. When it was time for us to make an offer on a house in Yorba Linda that had multiple interested parties, Vickie was on top of it. Her fun, bubbly and approachable personality not only makes her a joy to work with, it also comes in handy during negotiations. She was able to connect with the sellers agent and relayed valuable information that helped us present a competitive and fair offer. Instead of asking us to make a high offer to outbid the other offers, Vickie was strategic and recommended different approaches to make our offer stand out. And it did. The whole process was a breeze and she handled all of the communication and scheduling with inspectors, fumigation, and advocated for us to have the sellers fix everything that came out of the inspection report. Vickie is truly an exceptional realtor and anyone buying a home in Orange County would be lucky to work with her.

Best experience I have EVER had working with any real estate agent or Realtor!!…read more I've bought/sold two homes in the past working with at least 3 Realtors through the process and Liz and her team delivered the best experience BY FAR! My wife and I worked with Liz on the purchase of our new dream house in Orange County. From the start she was going above and beyond what we were expecting. We called rather suddenly when a property showed up on the market and scheduled to go see it with her. We weren't seriously looking before this. By the time we got to the property she and her team already had a good understanding of the history of the listing and were working comps real time to give us a clear understanding of what fair market value would be. Even adjusting it for what we were seeing in person at the property. We weren't certain if it was more of a buyer's market or a seller's market as it had been a seller's market for so long, but she explained the current conditions/trends of what she was seeing in the area and gave us EXCELLENT advice every step of the way. But she was also never pushy. She ultimately left it up to us to make the decision with the information she provided. We trusted her expertise and it absolutely paid off, literally. We got a deal on the property that we are very happy with. She offered great advice on everything from prices, timing, and even when to potentially walk away. Liz has a team of people that really seem to communicate as a team, not just a group of individuals working under the same company name. In passing conversations Liz talked about how she and her team work together, and it does seem like they get to share in each others expertise and experiences to develop a good understanding of the market. Liz also talked about what she does to train her team, and she seems like a great leader. No one looks left behind to fend for themselves, and it seems very structured so that everyone has support and training to deliver great customer service. Liz has a great reputation in the area which I think was a huge benefit in our case. The seller's Realtor already knew Liz and trusted her. We happened to meet the seller's Realtor, and even without Liz present, the seller's Realtor had nothing but great things to say about their interactions. Her expertise really does seem to be in demand as she seemed to be giving seminars or talks to audiences even outside of her team. Even with her busy schedule it never really impacted the scheduling of events at our home. She always still met us at the property for events like home inspections, walk throughs, and giving us the keys to the property. She always provided great communication and was very responsive whether it was through e-mail, calls or texts to help answer questions. I can be "particular" (picky) about some things and whenever I brought up a question or concern, no matter how small, she never dismissed it or tried to excuse it as something I didn't need to worry about. She took my concerns seriously and got them addressed. Out of everything, I think this is what I am most grateful for as it kept me comfortable working with her and I never felt like she was just trying to "close a deal", which was my preconceived notion of Realtors unfortunately. She really does seem to care for her clients and making sure they are happy. I would 100% work with Liz again!

Long story short: John's the man…read more Short story long? As with all first-time home buyers, the experience is overwhelming. From understanding your own finances to navigating the real estate market and endless terminology, it's easy to become paralyzed and lost in the storm. This is where John comes in; he is the lighthouse guiding you safely back to harbor. John has deep industry experience. He understands the market, what's out there, and exactly how the process works. Most importantly, he listens. He truly understands your situation and has your best interests at heart. John remembers your goals and what you said would make you happy, using that as a compass for every decision. At times when we couldn't find the right fit and I started to deviate, he would remind me of my original vision to ensure I didn't settle. I'm going to say it twice: he truly has your best interests at heart. I have a tendency to push my limits, and John wasn't afraid to step in and advise me when something might overburden my finances. He isn't just trying to close a deal and meet numbers; he cares about your future. He is incredibly patient. There was definitely a learning curve for me, but John understands that everyone learns differently. He took the time to rephrase complex concepts and provided examples to ensure I fully understood every step. He never made me feel "dumb" for asking questions; you can tell he genuinely cares through his tone and approach. John is also remarkably responsive. Whenever I found a listing with high potential and forwarded it to him late in the day, he would acknowledge and respond promptly. Even when I felt bad for reaching out late, he provided peace of mind by doing his homework immediately. We were often at the property the very next day. He acts fast and efficiently. Finally, he is solution-oriented. There were many times I thought a goal was out of reach, but he would do the research and return with a Plan A, B, and C. This gave me so much hope and reassurance throughout the process. The home search is a roller coaster of emotions, but John is there with you side-by-side from start to finish. You never feel alone, and you never feel doubt with John in your corner. "Looking back at where I started, I am forever grateful for John. He turned what felt like an impossible mountain to climb into a clear path forward. Through his hard work and dedication, I am a proud homeowner in a place I truly love, and I couldn't have done it without him." If you want more than just an agent--if you want an advocate--John is the one to call." Thank you for everything.

I was able to cleanly close on a deal in Irvine under asking for an adjacent home that went 30k over with identical layout and interior. I would recommend her to my mom if she was buying.

I explained that I had a distressed property that I needed to sell in Mission Viejo above the lake. Kathe understood where I was going with the sale and property and was quick to meet with me and quick to start bringing investors by to look at the property. Within days we had multiple cash offers and hit the "magic" number I needed for the sales price. The process was quick and Kathe made it so easy. She went above and beyond also checking on the vacant property when I wasn't in town. Kathe also helped me set up an estate sale at the property.

Review for Irene and Ricky Real Estate Group…read more I started looking for a home Jan 2025. I met Irene on July 2025. I purchased my home on Nov 2025. Before meeting Irene, I had already seen around 80 homes. In total, I visited over 100 homes before finding the right one. Irene worked with me for nearly 5 months and put in more than 8 offers on 5 different homes before securing our current home for a better deal than I could have imagined. Reasons I am so happy to have worked with Irene: 1. Well-connected: The main reason I would recommend Irene is that she is so well connected. She knew all the realtors of the homes we put in offers for. If we wanted the home, she would contact them immediately and get me all the details on how we should approach the offer near real-time. 2. Reliable & Experienced: She has most likely sold or purchased a similar home to what you are looking for. She knows dates / prices and lot types and can give you recommendations with proof to back it up. You want someone like her in your corner whether buying or selling your home. There is a reason she has been the #1 realtor in Irvine (volume-based) for the past 2 consecutive years. 3. Honest: She really wants what is best for you. She also wants your business now as well as in the future. When I was having second thoughts about the home after putting in offer, she talked me through my thoughts and advised that I should pull out now explaining that liking the house is much more important than how good the deal is. Instant trust. 4. Team: Her team members (Grace & Geoffrey) follow up very well and are very calm and caring, which is a perfect balance to Irene's quick-thinking demeanor. I'm extremely meticulous with my purchases and do extensive research and comparison shopping. Buying a home took that approach to an entirely new hyper-methodical level. Irene matched my obsessiveness with her diligence and never missed a detail. She is fast-paced yet very patient--hard to explain, but its immediately obvious once you work with her. I was so happy with Irene that within 2 months of closing, I got 2 other families to work with Irene to buy / rent out their home. They also really loved her so I am even more confident in recommending her without hesitation. While this home may not be my forever home, Irene is most definitely my forever realtor.
