“Tyler and John were an absolute pleasure to work with. Tyler brought me several off-market opportunities, and within just three weeks of working together, we were in escrow on an off-market condo in La Jolla. They always had my best interests in mind, were readily available to discuss scenarios and situations as they arose, and worked tirelessly to get the deal done. As a real estate investor, I look forward to working with Tyler and John on many future purchases.”

“I want to sincerely let anyone who reads this review know that Tyler Safran is a fantastic realtor. That is not just words - he truly cares about his clients from beginning to end! I had a death in my family which resulted in a decision to sell my property in Irvine, CA - Tyler was more than compassionate regarding the situation - he gave of his own time when he did not need to and when his efforts required 100 % he gave 200%! I have worked with many realtors in my life from many well know large firms and I can tell you that no one has ever come close to Tyler in his approach and the way he handles things! Truly amazing individual! Hands Down!!! If you require a realtor this is your man! You will not be sorry - he more than does what he says and again he really cares! I would more than recommend him - he knows his stuff and he will more than take care of anyone's needs!”

“Tyler is the best realtor in CA, I cannot stress this enough. I have, and will continue to, recommend Tyler to all of my friends and family. I had been searching for my perfect home for a year and a half before I met Tyler. It wasn’t the listings that didn’t convince me; it was the realtors. I met Tyler, and within one week, I found my home and was in escrow! The trust he gave me made me confident in moving forward because I knew he represented my best interests. He is knowledgeable, trustworthy, hardworking, and understanding. Mine was an international transaction, and he handled it perfectly. Despite the time difference, he was always available, and despite the many questions I sent his way, he was there with a reassuring text or email. Thanks to him, we found a lovely home in San Diego!”

“I have been very pleased working with Tyler as a referral partner over the last six months. I was recently connected with Tyler as I had clients in the Temecula area looking for a home. Due to my schedule constraints, I was not able to physically be with my clients and Tyler stepped in and did an amazing job. When handing off a referral, it is natural to think and hope that the receiving agent is able to take care of your clients the way you would and successfully close the deal. Now having multiple clients work with Tyler, I can assure you he does exactly that. He has been very attentive and communicative with me throughout the process with updates, but most importantly, taking care of the clients and moving them along in the process smoothly. I have been very happy with him as a Referral partner and will continue to work with him.”
