“ Justin is a top shelf Real Estate Professional. He gently coached us through the process of listing and selling our home and took care of everything along the way. We left our house with him for a weekend and he was able to get it sold in two days at $80k over our asking price. I know it was Justin's professionalism and straight forward calm demeanor that got us our deal. He is genuine and easy to contact with questions. Justin is a pleasure to work with, I highly recommend him if you are either buying or selling a home anywhere in North County San Diego.”

“ After over a year of searching, Justin’s network led him to a bungalow home that had yet to hit the market. Justin had a hunch it was the perfect home for us and was able to schedule a viewing of the home prior to it being listed. Due to his professionalism, the sellers selected Justin to represent them as well. He prepared our offer and the sellers accepted it in just two days. Justin did a fantastic job representing both sides and the escrow was completed only sixteen days from the accepted offer. From the viewings, to writing the offer, to selecting qualified escrow, legal, inspection and title insurance professionals, Justin made the process of purchasing a home as easy as possible. His excellent communication skills were key to keeping the process flowing in a timely fashion. We highly recommend Justin for either listing your home or for purchasing a home in the coastal region. His dedication to his clients is the reason we have our dream home! ”

“ Justin was referred to us by family given his knowledge of the area and I am very happy we were connected. A few highlights: Knowledge of neighborhoods, trends/markets and value - Deep network of contractors and vendors for many different aspects that is useful in all phases of transaction cycle as a fringe benefit -Genuinely easy person to talk to and navigate through a transaction with, from planning, to offer, to execution and post sale - Analytically we: got under asking (double digits), got additional sellers credits where warranted, stuck precisely to our close timeline Every deal comes with minor bumps and we ironed those out quickly and no better person to do it with than Justin. Highly recommend and we will be back for any future transactions.”

He was able to get our offer accepted fast without a lot of back and forth. Justin was also instrumental in scheduling all of our inspections and helped ensure we closed escrow with no hassles. I highly recommend working with Justin!”
