"My wife and I were new to the neighborhood and met Tom while walking the dog. Tom knew we were looking to buy in the future, but nothing right away. We have had other agents blast us with emails and calls, knowing we were not actively looking. Tom stayed in touch and was never pushy to get a deal done. We were not easy clients and Tom was super patient and a vital resource during our search for a new home. Tom is a real estate veteran, he knows the ins and outs of the market and the neighborhoods. I think one thing that stands out is, Tom is respectful and courteous to everyone in the process. He spoke with our mortgage agent first thing, he was in constant contact with the sellers agent and never put us in a us vs them situation. It took the stress out of the process. After the sale, Tom is still a resource as we get settled in. I have never heard of an agent that offers that type of resource. Five stars, two thumbs up! Making dreams a reality!

"Tom did an amazing job helping us prepare for the selling process last summer. He had great advice and made important connections to service providers that could help us present the home in its best light. We were able to realize the equity that had built up in our home. Fast forward to this Spring and he stepped up again as we looked to buy our next home. It was a difficult environment with limited inventory, but he helped us stay focused on what was important to us and encouraged us to remain patient. We found a great home in the community we had targeted and couldn't be happier. We really enjoyed the Compass custom search feature and the quick communication with Tom that it provided." -Carl Pinkard

"Tom is a 5-star agent, and really an above and beyond great guy. Tom was recommended by a previous agent I worked with who moved out of the country. I was told that he would be a great fit for us to sell our current home and find the next. Our buying and selling process was wrought with complexities – few of which were within our control. Our situation involved sellers wanting to back out of the sale, one house waiting on another to close, multiple job changes, and a significant number of moving pieces. Throughout the entire process, no matter what the problem or road-bump, Tom was a calming presence and relieved any stress we may have felt in this process. He was helpful, extremely knowledge, and always available and prompt with all of our questions and concerns. Tom maintained an empathetic, down to earth approach, and never seemed beleaguered or put-out, despite our complicated and months-long work with him. I can't say enough about the professionalism and grace that Tom exhibits. He is truly someone who will go out of their way to ensure you not only find your perfect home, but are comfortable along the way. Because agents are paid commission at the time of close, you can sometimes feel pressure to make decisions or move the process along. With Tom, we never once doubted that his instructions/advice had our best interests in mind. Coming from the real estate industry myself, I can tell you that this is a rare combination of traits. If you are lucky enough to work with him, I can guarantee that you are in the best hands, and my wife and I could not be happier with the results! Thank you, Tom!" -Ryan Martinez & Erika Allred

★★★★★
"I highly recommend Tom. He is very knowledgeable about the area and the pros and cons of the neighborhoods. He listened to what my "checklist" was in purchasing a home and he delivered! He was extremely competent and professional throughout my home purchase process. He also went above and beyond post-closing to ensure that my dream home was just that. I would not hesitate to contact Tom again for any real estate needs." -Laura H.

★★★★★
"If you are lucky enough to meet Tom and have him represent you as your realtor, you will be in the best of hands. Tom was always extremely professional, knowledgeable, had great attention to detail, was never pushy, and consistently always had our best interest in the forefront. We genuinely felt like we were being taken care of by a family member even though we only met him as our realtor. He has a huge heart and truly wants the best for his clients." -Robert & Claudia

★★★★★

★★★★★
“My wife and I met Tom at an open house as we were navigating the home buying process on our own. After walking a few houses with him, we quickly realized how valuable having Tom in our corner was. He took so much pressure off of us in our search, as he quickly learned precisely what it was we were looking for in our house hunt. His knowledge of the area, and experience in the North county real estate market was crucial in nding a house that best tour needs and budget. After finnding Tom, our search was much more deliberate and organized. Tom is a true professional who made our satisfaction his top priority. If you are looking for a person of high integrity who is con dent and capable, Tom is your guy. If you are looking for someone who will work tirelessly and doesn't mind getting his hands dirty on your behalf, Tom is your guy. Where other agents I have met talk a big game, Tom delivers. ”

★★★★★
“Toms years of experience shows immediately with his detailed knowledge of every popular, and obscure neighborhood we wanted to look at. Constantly gauging our evaluation of each property with educated questions and respectful suggestions. We never felt pressured by Tom and he was extremely patient while we searched for a home over many months. Extremely flexible and self-driven to turn any stone to help get us in the right direction during our search, and all throughout escrow. I highly recommend Tom for any realtor needs, I look forward to working with him again on any future real estate transactions.”

★★★★★
“My husband and I worked with Tom on both buying and selling our first home. Tom walked us through the entire process and helped set us up with professionals throughout it all. No question was too small or silly since this was our first time selling a house. We highly recommend Tom. He is an expert in the San Diego area and really cares about his clients! Thanks for everything, Tom! ”

★★★★★
“Look no further-Tom Wilson is the Realtor you want to work with! You will not nd a more qualified, enthusiastic, aggressive and thorough, detail- oriented realtor out there! Within hours of my husband and I deciding to list our house with Tom, he was canvassing our neighborhood, knocking on doors and speaking with all of our neighbors drumming up buzz and interest about the upcoming listing and Open House. Whatever we asked of Tom, he did it without hesitation. Tom worked closely with my husband and I to lend his support and guidance on every decision we made along the way. We are soon to be empty-nesters, and while Tom was selling our home he showed us potential properties that we had not even thought of. While the end decision was ours, we really took Tom’s educated thoughts and suggestions to heart. Did we want more land? Did we want a condo by the beach? Did we want an older house to x up or new construction? Tom never hesitated to show us any property we asked him about. He kept us in line with the nancial goals we had set, and even helped us SURPASS them! Tom genuinely cares about his clients, and at the end of the day, he isn’t happy unless you are thrilled. Not only did we nd a great realtor to work with, we now have a friend for life! ”

“We worked with Tom in buying our new home in Carlsbad. Tom was great to work with, very professional and listened to what we were looking for. He was very responsive to all of our questions and requests, and provided expert advice on the market. He was always available to show us properties, and had some great suggestions on other neighborhoods to look based on our needs. Tom was able to negotiate a deal with the sellers that we were very pleased with and went above and beyond in managing the entire process to complete the transaction. I would highly recommend Tom as your agent. ”

★★★★★
“Tom was introduced to us by an agent/former neighbor of ours, and came very highly recommended. He definitely lived up to that expectation! Tom is very knowledgeable about both the local area and the intricacies of both buying and selling a home. Procedures and best practices that he recommended to us not only worked, but had never been addressed by previous agents. He is very responsive, approachable, and respectful to his clients, as well as a genuinely nice guy. We were quite nervous selling our first home and looking for our new home, but he immediately set our minds at ease and we jumped in with both feet. We are so very happy that Tom came into our lives, and will remain friends with him far beyond the scope of the house buying process.”

★★★★★
“In March of 2019, we discussed downsizing and moving into a rental situation. TOM WILSON was our neighbor and was our 1st choice in choosing a realtor. Right from the start, Tom was talking with our neighbors creating interest about our upcoming listing. His expertise & years of experience guided us thru every step of the home selling process. Tom held an Open House each & every weekend. His dedication never waivered and was very much appreciated. Tom earned every STAR of his 5 STAR rating with our experience!!!”

★★★★★
“After searching for numerous realtors, we knew Tom was the best San Diego had to offer when we interacted with him at an open house. His knowledge and years of experience made it an easy choice, but more importantly Tom is a very personable and trustworthy person that is always willing to help, and make himself available during all steps of the home buying process. As first time home buyers, Tom turned an initially daunting process into a very quick and worry free process. During our first in-person meeting we discussed the entire house-buying process, and Tom explained all of the ins and outs as well. His general attitude and approach made us feel confident that we'd find something perfect for our needs and that we'd have fun along the way. Tom was absolutely essential in helping us not only find the right home, but also in making sure we had an understanding of the home buying process in order for us to be able to make informed decisions, and have the best home buying experience. My wife and I highly recommend Tom to anyone looking to buy or sell!”

★★★★★
“If I could give Tom more than 5 stars I would. Tom is the only realtor you will ever need. He helped me sell my older home and purchase a new one. I had just lost my husband and needed to sell my large property to downsize my life. He guided me through the process of getting my older house ready to sell. He worked tirelessly to help me get all the repairs done that were needed to sell it. He helped me find contractors to do the work and he often came out to oversee their progress. His expertise and follow up in what needed to be done was amazing. He always went above and beyond. When it came time to find a new home he was on top of the process and negotiated a great deal for me. He found me a home that is my dream home and the start of a new life. Tom communicated with me constantly throughout the process and was always available when I had a question or concern. He was also sensitive to the emotional challenge of my moving out of my home of 20 years. His emotional support throughout the process was crucial for me. I feel like I have found a friend for life.”

★★★★★
“Tom was a tremendous help in our home buying experience. We were relocating from out of the area, and so we needed to make sure that during our occasional trips to town we were able to see as many properties as possible and get additional color on micro neighborhoods that is hard to discern from just looking at online listing sites. Once we found the right home we had to work quickly as seller wanted a short close, Tom was crucial to get all the inspections and other processes done quickly and ahead of schedule. We had an issue on our end with the lender (completely unrelated to Tom) at the date of closing, during which Tom did a great job stepping in to make sure everyone was communicating between the loan agent, the escrow company, and the seller's agent. After close, Tom has been a wealth of resources for local trustworthy contacts for contractors and other resources. He knows and loves the area.”

★★★★★
“Tom was the true sellers’ partner—never allowing us to lose focus on the goal: selling the property. I am 1/2 of the selling couple and I could not have been happier with Tom‘s help, professionalism in the face of difficulties with escrows for two days anticipated showings to sell resulting in six months of frustration. He was the solution not the problem. We were the problem and he helped us solve it in very creative ways. He was always humble, polite, humorous, and very focused. He was a gem to work with.So many details were addressed in the background that we underestimated initially. He really knows his business! Never was he unavailable for showing us properties that would make things work. We looked forward to his 9-10 PM touching bases.”
