Serri was an absolutely exceptional real estate agent, and we can't recommend her and her partner…read moreGeorge highly enough. We hired Serri to sell our five-acre property with an exceptional panoramic view, our beloved home, and from the very first walkthrough she was extremely professional and thorough. She inspected every bit of the home and grounds and immediately knew how to position it to meet our specific goal: a quick sale, at a strong price, with no lingering on the market and no price reductions. A previous agent had pitched our home as a retirement property, which never sat right with us. Serri saw it exactly as we did, as a family home, and priced and marketed it accordingly. She brought in her own staging team, photographer, and videographer (including drone footage), and recommended a handful of relatively small, inexpensive updates, including a fresh paint job. The return on those modest changes was remarkable. They made a huge difference in how the home showed and clearly helped drive up buyer interest and the final sale price. Serri and George held a single open house that brought in over 100 visitors, and within 48 hours we had two offers above our asking price, from a family with young children and another who was ready to start one. Both could clearly picture themselves living there. Serri and George managed every step of the process with great care and skill. We were also in the middle of an international move at the time, which made everything more stressful, and Serri and George took every worry off our plate. Whether you're buying, selling, or just need solid advice, Serri and George are fantastic, and we recommend them without hesitation.

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.

Kimberly and Barb, her assistant, were absolutely the most dedicated real estate professionals I've ever known, AND we've moved 7 times, so I know! My husband and I were moving across country this time, so there was a lot involved in attention, timing, negotiating, and yes, hand-holding. She was knowledgeable, wise, and always had our backs. We immediately had multiple offers and a final price of thousands above listing price. The results spoke for themselves: our beloved home was sold in just 6 days to the best buyer.

It was a pleasure having her on our side throughout the home buying process. Everything moved so fast because of our unique situation but we were fortunate enough to have Angie on our side to walk us through everything. It is an extremely overwhelming process for first time homebuyers but having people on your team who care makes it not as stressful. It still is so surreal to think that we are now homeowners.

We had our house on the market for several months with a different realtor. It was not a good experience. After many months of frustrations, I contacted Neda. She came to our house PREPARED and had done her due diligence on our property prior to our meeting. We walked thru the house and then sat down and reviewed what she picked out "to do" to bring top dollar. She immediately noted lighting need some upgrades. She noted we should paint the exterior a different color. She noted a couple of rooms needed painted. She noted several other items. Mind you this is a custom built 4200 sqft home in an awesome neighborhood. Anyway, we followed her check list and worked with a couple of her contractors to do all the recommended items. We didn't even list the house and she sold it in three days for a very good price! I am not sure why anyone in the North County/Encinitas/Del Mar, Solana Beach etc... area would use anyone other than Neda and her team. They quite simply are THE BEST realtors in the area! I think she could write a book and teach so many other realtors, the proper way to sell homes. Thank you Neda!!

Tim Holsten was our real estate agent when we purchased our La Jolla vacation rental property ten…read moreyears ago in 2008. When we decided to sell the property this year in 2018, Tim was our natural choice after our positive experience when we purchased this property. His wife Andrea has since joined the business, together as the Holsten Team, and she is adept at staging properties for the market. We listed the property in mid-March with some apprehension, since the new tax laws have negatively impacted the market for second homes. As such, we assumed our buyer would either be purchasing it as a primary residence or as a rental property. Originally, we staged it as a primary residence, but when the response was tepid, we discussed with Tim the idea of focusing on staging it primarily as an income property. His flexibility and willingness to listen to our ideas, and his advice along the way, proved vital as we transitioned to stage it for the vacation rental market. As we continued to rent it, Tim coordinated the showings with other agents and had open houses during the brief windows when the place was vacant. We had an offer less than a month later! And with Tim's help during the negotiations, we were able to get full asking price. While listing and selling is critical, closing escrow can be challenging, as well. There are many stages and complexities we never fully realized existed until we sold our place. Tim was great at managing the entire closing process, start to finish. He was diligent, professional, and always helpful. Andrea added great insights, too. We live in Orange County and if we ever decide to sell our home, we would love it if Tim would be willing to drive an hour north to help us. The Holsten Team is great, and we would use them again in a heartbeat, and highly recommend them to others.

Tim is great. We have used his services twice now - to buy our first home 3 years ago and then…read moreagain recently to sell it for a sudden upstate move. Both times were in pretty crazy market circumstances, and he was the calm force for us while we made some big decisions. What I like most about him is that he is a genuinely nice guy, ethical, someone anyone would want to do business with. He isn't that "sales-y" guy that is pushy or embarrassing as your representative. He is earnest and I think other agents appreciate that. Which, in the end, is good for getting what you need, I think. If you want someone who is really there to help you, who is prompt with all communication and takes the time to explain anything you need about real estate, Tim is your guy. He really goes the extra mile for you, and in a stressful situation like a buying/selling your property, you will need him!
