"Hands down the best real estate agent I’ve ever hired... Erik Romero lease out my downtown
condo during a time when the market was flooded with comparable listings. I firmly believe
Erik’s strong work ethic, extensive market knowledge and superior marketing material are the
thee main factors that permitted me to attain full asking price for my residence. I plan on hiring
him again in the future and would certainly recommend him to anyone looking for an honest real
estate professional." - Dr. Edward K.
★★★★★
"Erik is an amazing real estate agent. His extensive knowledge of the real estate market in San
Diego was instrumental in selling my downtown condo. The marketing materials he provided
were phenomenal. He was also persistent in showing my condo so that it would receive the
maximum exposure. Erik always kept me informed of the comparable listings in the
neighborhood and advised me on how competitively list my condo. As a result, we were able to
sell my condo above comps. During the sale, he kept me informed of any issues and met all
deadlines. I would not hesitate to call Erik for future real estate transactions, since he was such a
pleasure to work with. Erik is professional, knowledgeable, and most importantly, honest. He has
a strong work ethic that makes him stand out as a top notch real estate agent." - Lily C.
★★★★★
"Having closed numerous real estate transactions (both sale & rental) with Erik in the last seven
years I can say he is one of the most diligent individuals I have ever met. His passion for real
estate drives his success in an industry where most others fail. From his polished level headed
demeanor, to his extensive market knowledge and high-end marketing material this man truly is
a pleasure to work with. I would recommend Erik to anyone looking for a proven real estate
professional who always puts his heart and soul into every aspect of his profession. – Carlos V.
We have done 3 transactions with Erik Romero in the past two years and intend to use him for
our future transactions too. We have not met a more honest, energetic, responsive, dedicated
agent. He uses the most up-to-date marketing methods and is the opposite of the part-time
agent that hangs a sign, makes a flyer, and waits for buyers to come. He makes the sales happen." - Randal M.
★★★★★
"Erik was the most professional in our transactions, both as a listing agent and buyers rep for my
new condo. He responded immediately to any questions or issues I would have. He held open
houses frequently, both brokers and buyers and was able to guide me to a very competent
mortgage broker. He was always friendly and courteous and was never as much as a minute late
to an appointment! I would highly recommend him and would never consider using anyone else
myself." - Susan S.
★★★★★
"Erik is, by far, the best realtor with whom we have ever worked with. He is kind, professional,
straightforward, knowledgeable, flexible, and dedicated. He was so attentive and never delayed
action. Knowing Erik was there was incredible peace of mind for us, as we lived in a different
town. More importantly, Erik did a great job with the sale of our home. He worked with us
through two separate sales cycles (we changed our mind about selling the first time). He took
beautiful pictures of the home, put together highly professional materials, and posted on the
web in an expert fashion. I wish we could clone Erik and bring him with us to be our agent
wherever life takes us." - Dr. Michael L.
★★★★★
"Erik was great to work & I would highly recommend him! Erik came highly recommended to me
by a friend and didn't disappoint. I needed to find a place very quickly in downtown SD and Erik
was right there when I needed him. He not only found me a great place in a quick time frame
that fit my budget, but he also helped give me some advice on leasing my other properties. He
took eased the stress around & moving to a new one and made the entire experience seamless.
Moving can be such a headache; it was nice to have someone knowledgeable and willing to
assist with everything I needed. I will definitely use him again in the future." - Lacey B.
★★★★★
"Erik Romero is a pleasure to work with. This is my second time using his services. He is very
conscientious, extremely professional and very knowledgable. His confidence and experience in
his field is unmistakable. Erik took pictures and made a video of my place and of the surrounding
downtown area for viewers. It was very impressive and really brought out the best in my rental.
He is a real go getter and puts 110 percent effort until his job is done. Erik brought in a very
generous amount of viewers from his advertising. He had my place listed on more than a dozen
sites, all of the general ones, plus some I have never heard of and even The Coronado Real Estate
Magazine. I was out of town while Erik was working on renting my place out. He informed me
that one of the bedrooms didn't show well at night because of poor lighting. Since I was
unavailable, Erik went out and purchased a lamp for his evening showings. This is just one of
many thoughtful gestures I experienced while being Erik's client. He was always punctual and
easy to reach via phone, txt or email. My place was available during the Thanksgiving holiday,
going into the Christmas month, one of the most difficult times to rent from my experience. Not
only did Erik present to me an excellent potential candidate, but 3 interested prospects, all of
whom had great references and credit so I had my pick! I would highly recommend Erik and will
definitely will contact him again in the future." - Jenna M.
★★★★★
"I moved to San Diego area from Hawaii and needed assistance finding a place that was both
conveniently located and within my budget. After contacting Erik, he was able to find me the
perfect home. Every communication with him was quick, professional, and helpful. Something
that struck me about him was his immense knowledge of the San Diego real estate market. After
dealing with and having somewhat lackluster experiences with other agents in the past, I was
pleasantly surprised by the level of service I received." - Bill O.

"Erik is amazing! He is extremely professional and responsive. He helped my friend and I find a
new home in less than two days! As soon as we reached out, he called us right away and set up
an appointment to meet. He was right on time to our appointment and showed us every part of
the home, including all common areas. He was very transparent in regards to details with the
home and we really appreciated that. We found an instant trust in Erik. Once we let him know that we were definitely interested, he made it happen in less than 48 hours! He made our
stressful move situation A LOT less stressful and I think him for that! We will be reaching out to
him for any future moves and definitely recommend him to our friends." - Samantha B.

Leading by example is my way of making a difference and contributing to my community.
