Patrick and his team are wonderful, honest, and hard working people. We highly recommend them for selling your home. He is very knowledgeable about the local real estate market and practices, he offers honest advice, he goes above and beyond to advertise and show the home in its best possible condition, and, most importantly, he is a great person to work with. We interviewed several other agents and found that he was most knowledgeable and honest regarding the positive and negative aspects of our home and neighborhood. More importantly, he and his business partner used that information to improve and market our home and get us the highest price possible in the market. His pricing strategy was excellent: we received several fantastic offers within 5 days of listing and closed in 30 days. We were considering small improvements to the home like new carpet and fresh paint, but he rightly convinced us that these improvements were not necessary from a cost/benefit perspective and due to the fact that our home was not that old. In addition, his knowledge of the neighborhood (he lives there too) allowed him to speak frankly to us and potential buyers about the pluses and minus of the area. Patrick’s effort to ensure a smooth transaction was excellent. We were out of the country during most of the listing and escrow phases, yet he maintained excellent communication using email, text, Skype, and docu-sign. Our distance was not an issue. In addition, he organized and met all workers and tradesmen regarding inspections, repairs, and cleaning, and even discounted his own commission to pay for some of the work. Most important for us, Patrick is an honest, approachable, and all-around great person. He always replies promptly to messages, explains things clearly, and is always smiling. He is just a great person to work with. We highly recommend him and will certainly use him again for buying or selling our next home in San Diego.
