- We searched for over six months to find a house in the Del Cerro neighborhood. Thanks to Chris, he located our dream home within a 24-hr window from when it became available on the market. Chris made many offers (for us) up to that point and was very pleasant to work with. He is a true leader in his field. We "love" our house! Thank you, Chris!Clark WillitsSourced by Realtor.com
- Chris worked with us for 6 months on a very difficult short-sale. His patience and perseverance with the bank allowed us to close the deal. We have worked with Chris on both buying and selling sides of real-estate transactions and look forward to working with him again.Private ClientSourced by Realtor.com
- Chris has been in the business a long time and he knows the area well and conducts himself professionally at all times. Most importantly, he is able to handle the nuanced details of negotiatiating a final real estate contract. He represented me as a buyer and I was satisfied with the results. I am still in the same house 6 years later.Pamela ChoiceSourced by Realtor.com
- Chris did an excellent job selling our Mission Hills home at a great price when determining the market price was a bit ambiguous. My wife and I were most impressed. He brought is a buyer some $180K above a previous brokers suggested list price in a very reasonable time. He put together a meticulous marketing plan and executed it. Yes, you want Chris on your team. Thanks Chris!Ronald NewcombSourced by Realtor.com
- I hired Chris for the purchase and sale of several properties in the San Diego area since 1997. He was very personable, highly professional, extremely knowledgeable, and dedicated to getting me the results I wanted. From looking for suitable places, to buying my dream property, from listing a house to closing a sale, Chris made sure he was there for all my real estate related questions. I highly recommend him for all residential real estate transactions.Joerg SieberSourced by Realtor.com
- Chris, Always came prepared when he took us to see homes for sale. He was knowledgable about each home, home owner and the neighborhood. And at the end of the day he was forthright and honest. He never hid anything from the buyer about the property whether it was some thing positive or negative. He always had your best interests as his top priority.Yale StromSourced by Realtor.com
- Chris had helped us with the sale of our beautiful Santee home in California. He worked with us personally on what we needed to get done within the home for the sale of the house. Chris made sure he was there for all my real estate related questions, while going above and beyond to make sure the house was presentable during the open house. This home was our first purchase and sale and I absolutely would recommend Chris as a future Real Estate agent. We also learned alot of important decisions that we will need to know in any future purchases.Deeanne TrepaSourced by Realtor.com
