We are moving back to the North County area from the East Coast and had a very limited window to see houses in person. Ahead of our visit, Holly did a great job listening to what we wanted, providing options for us to review, and gathering feedback to distill the market down to houses that fit all of our parameters. During our house hunting trip, Holly tirelessly showed us house after house, including several day-of additions, to ensure that we had a solid understanding of the market. During this time, Holly did a great job of sticking to our original vision while adapting to our feedback as we started to better understand the market. Through this process, we felt we able to make an informed decision despite only having a few days in the area. On the last day, we found a home that was the right combination of all the things we wanted and needed for this next chapter of our lives. With a clear first choice, Holly fought hard to ensure that we were able to secure a winning offer. With her help and guidance we got the offer accepted just as we were getting ready to leave California at the end of our house-hunting trip! Getting that offer accepted was a huge victory, but Holly's effort and value did not stop there. Through every step of the the escrow process, Holly continued to advise us and fight for the best deal. This effort saved us a lot of money and made us feel confident that we truly walked away with the best price the market would allow. Even after closing Holly has continued to be a vital asset as we transition back to California. By conducting walk throughs and working with the selling agent to ensure that the property is ready for move in, Holly has once again shown that she is committed to ensuring that our best interests are represented through every aspect of the real estate buying experience. In addition to all of these wonderful qualities, working with Holly was fun! We had a great time getting to know her and she turned what could have been an absolute grind into an enjoyable and educational experience. She has our absolute highest recommendation!

If you are CLUELESS about the home buying process like we were, just go ahead and set up an appointment/call with Angie. She is seriously the best and will gladly answer all of your questions and hear your situation. Angie really gave us the time of day. 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. You will not regret having this team on your side!

The true value of a real estate agent does not come to light when everything goes swimmingly, as…read morehappened in the past year or so in San Diego. People were outbidding each other for properties. Values went sky high. Buyers were willing to take anything and everything. Anyone can sell a property when that happens. The real value comes to play when things go a bit off-track, as happened with us. And it was then that Casey Cooke showed himself to be a consummate real estate professional. He had to, and did, deal with an extremely difficult and incompetent agent on the other side of the transaction. He guided us through the pricing of our home, always with an eye toward obtaining the most return, but was equally well grounded in what the position of the market was at that moment. His conclusions were rock solid. We have seen few people as well informed as he. When things became difficult, Casey solved problems. He stood up for us when unreasonable demands were made, and forcefully supported our position, taking the effort to back up his statements with market-based facts. Casey Cooke is utterly professional. We couldn't have done better in choosing him to sell our home for us. We cannot recommend him highly enough.

Our property manager, Victoria Hempel tried to lie and harass us because we wanted her to remediate.

Con Am is the worst property management company ever! We have been emailing this property…read moremanagement since June about mold growing in our master bedroom and both bathrooms and have had no replies or remediations other than it being cleaned by the old maintenance staff on the window once in June. I called the properly manager 3 times since this Wednesday after we stopped paying rent this month and filed a notice with a lawyer on Monday and he initially said that they will talk to the risk department first on Wednesday and then that changed to Thursday with the updates from the vendors that came on Thursday. Multiple vendor came by to look where the mold is growing but didn't really test anything. They said they were going to use the moisture reading from 5 months ago when they replaced the master bathroom and other bathroom flooring as soon as we moved into the apartment that was warping and coming off from the existing moisture issue that no one informed us about when we moved in. When we did not hear back after the supposed Con Am management call, I called David again around then to get an update only to find out the risk department was not able to join on any of the calls and when asked for their contact, David the manager refused to give their contact details out to us to reach out and resolve any lease contract issues which is now null and void due to Con Am breaking the California habitability law. My attorney has requested Con Am's attorney's information at least twice, once on Wednesday and another on Thursday, but for some reason my attorney has not been given Con Am's attorney's information. We have been trying to resolve this mold issue for months, and even after we were served with a 3-day notice, Con Am has still not engaged with us or my attorney to resolve this issue or the 3-day notice. When on the call with David, he asked once if we were willing to move to another unit in the building when he mentioned all the possible work that is going to be done with the hvac leaks, walls, flooring and pest control/ termite treatments and I pointed out that they may need to do a lot of renovations in here to make this apartment habitable as I cannot live here during that time since Con Am has failed to resolve the mold issue, so I may be forced to move out due to how sick myself and my dogs feel while living here since we moved. I said we are willing to take a look but the way that this whole situation is being handled is really not making us trust that the other units may be any better than here. We have had to live here with mold and these issues which we made the management and leasing office aware of as soon as we saw them without any proper long term solution for these ongoing issues from basically the time we moved here. We are not paying rent to live here in this unit like this and they need to offer a long term solution of me moving out one way or another. My dogs have had multiple vet visits into thousands of dollars at this point just for horrible allergies which the vet just confirmed may be caused from mold. I'm having multiple doctors visits for confirmed mold symptoms myself. I am concerned for the health of my husband, dogs, and myself. Con Am's failure to address this issue is causing us financial hardship and health issues. Property manager David said that his management refuses to let him to give us the risk dept/ lawyers contact information so I did mention we're being forced to consider other means of legal action if we do not hear back on anything today. The 3 day notice to pay rent to David served for September rent is illegal and void at this point as the lease was violated by their management and the contract has become void due to management's lack of response to resolve the mold and water damage and rotting wood issue for months.
