Comment: Not happy with this reality team. I was lied too multiple times by Rafael Rivera, I wasnt in the best place at the time, he received a triple commission on the buy and sell side of my property, false promises galore. Only reason Im giving two stars was for his hustle. Worked in sales my whole career never lied to get a deal done.

Comment: As a Home Inspector, this business has recommended our services to their clients.Its refreshing to see agents that care about their clients, and arent only focused on closing the deal. One reason I can tell is when I do an inspection on a home, and the home ends up with lots of issues on the report...they are thankful that the report showed all the issues, instead of being upset that now the deal will fall apart.

Comment: Nicole is an amazing Agent! We are so thankful have found her. She made the transaction easy for us. Knowing she understood all the documents & helped explained the process before hand took the headache of buying home away from us. Nicole took the time to listen to what we wanted even when we ourselves didn’t exactly agree. Nicole found us something that was perfect and had everything we both wanted.We met Nicole at the end of May & had our keys by mid July. Nicole had great communication with our lender and was extremely responsive during the entire transaction. Thank you so much Nicole.You are our forever realtor!

Comment: Alli and the team at ProchLight really made closing a breeze. While finding a place in SoCal is tough, once youre ready to bid, Alli is great at making sure you have the right strategy. Once in escrow, the team were not only professional but also made the entire process simple and efficient. Cannot recommend them enough.

Comment: PorchLight Realty is the best in San Diego for a reason. After searching for a buyers agent for the purchase of our first home, we landed on PorchLight. Mark Pattison and his amazing team of agents helped my partner and I move into our first home so effortlessly, quickly and easily. Mark and his team recommended their preferred partners, from mortgage lender to home inspector, and helped us to close quickly and so easily. We are grateful to Mark and the entire PorchLight team for their expertise, honesty, transparency and knowledge for us as first-time homebuyers! Mark was always just a phone call or text away, and made the entire process seamless. Thank you, PorchLight and Mark -- you now have clients for life!

Comment: I cant speak for everyone at PorchLight Realty, but we worked with a Realtor named Scarletr OHara and had a great experience!Scarlett made our homebuying process swift. She was personable and highly responsive. Responsiveness was of the utmost importance to us as 2 busy working professionals. I greatly appreciated her candor and willingness to be flexible with our schedule and unique needs. My husband and I are both very savvy and do a lot of self education and research. Unlike most Realtors, Scarlett was not discouraged by our frequent requests for information and tendency to be a little high maintenance. We highly recommend Scarlett and we will definitely be using her again for future purchases.

Comment: Hello,I just want to recognize Jacklyn for being patient and helping me through the process. I informed her that my dream was to own a home but I never thought as a single parent working full time saving money through out the years, I would be this close to actually owning one soon. I immediately started the application process and Jacklyn always responded back instantly for each question I had. You are not taught on how to provide world-class service, you are born with the trait to provide others with world-class service. So I thank you Jacklyn, so much from the bottom of my heart for all that you have done and continue to do. You respected the budget I’m looking for but most of all, you made the time for myself and family and words could never express how grateful I am to have met you. Many more beautiful blessings to you and your family. I ensure you that, I’m referring my coworkers and family /friends to you.

Comment: Jacklyn Laquindanum and Virgilio Felix have been incredible to work with. They truly are in the business of helping people and you can tell they are passionate and love what they do. They changed the course of our lives and have helped make our home owning dreams come true. As first time home owners we had a lot of questions and needed help understand the home buying process.They are both so patient, extremely responsive and easily accessible through email, calls and texts. They have been in our corner from day one and frankly getting connected to them has been nothing short of a blessing from God. They connected us to our lender and we got preapproved so quickly! Within weeks for meeting them, we were under contract in escrow on a home that we absolutely love. I’m so thankful for their dedication and discipline, it’s been a joy to work with them!If you are looking for some solid realtors in California, your search is over! You’ll be in the best of hands with Virgilio and Jacklyn.

Comment: My husband and I just bought our first home together thanks to Sarah Simonetti and Tiffany Smith, and we couldnt be more thankful to them for all their help! Both Sarah and Tiffany were extremely professional throughout every step of the way, they kept communication open and made sure we hit all our milestones on time throughout escrow. We had actually been in and out of the house search as we rented for the past four years, but finally being able to put down roots and finding our forever home in San Diego definitely wouldnt have happened without their help.

We like to move fast and waste no time and neither did Porchlight when it came to getting us our home. Couldnt be happier with the result and the counsel they gave us every step of the way.

Comment: I can not even begin to express the thanks and praise I have for Sarah Simonetti. I was given short notice to move to the states from overseas and managed to cross paths with her and it was the biggest blessing I’ve ever received. Her and her team would stay up to match my time zone and would answer my questions at all hours. Then she found me a diamond in the rough property and I knew it was the one. Even with me being scared to commit to my first house she was there every step of the way and never let me feel like I was alone. If you want an agent that’s passionate and feels like family, this is where your search ends. You’d be crazy not to work with her on such a big life chapter.

Comment: Steve Addobati is an awesome agent and I don’t think my family would have been able to get into the house that we’re in now without him. We worked with an agent previously and after being beat out on 8 or 9 different homes we decided to try a new agent. Steve did a great job of explaining the current state of the market and helped us to write a winning offer on the first home we decided to put on offer on with him! We really were on the brink of quitting and just signing a new lease with our landlord, thank you for saving us from continuing to pay someone else’s mortgage and allowing us achieve our long time goal of home ownership!

Comment: I recently purchased a home in San Diego and I know for a fact that it wouldnt have gone as smoothly without Chelsea Knave as my trusted realtor. Throughout the process, Chelsea was so thorough and communicative. The market in San Diego is tough, but Chelsea encouraged me that she and the PorchLight Team used the most current and creative strategies to write competitive offers on our behalf. She is adamant about creating a stress-free experience for her clients. Once we were in escrow, Chelsea handled a major issue with such poise that we didnt realize there was an issue until after shed already found a solution. Long story short, we found our perfect home and were still able to have repairs covered (which is rare in this crazy market). I would buy and sell a home with Chelsea Knave in a heartbeat.

He really knows what good customer service is and you can really tell he loves what he does. Just follow him on Instagram 😃

Comment: As first time homebuyers, my husband and I were nervous before starting the buying process. We worked with Chelsea Knave and on day one she made us feel comfortable and settled our nerves. Chelsea is well-informed, professional, courteous, and personable. She listened to our wants and needs and respected our budget. The process was seamless and we couldn’t be more happy with our experience. Thank you Chelsea for all of your help!

He has great attention to detail and is committed to finding the home that is right for you. He supported us through the whole process, was clear and transparent with our options and got us into our dream home.

Comment: My wife and I finally decided that we need a house of our own and that we’re done renting, but the only problem was that we had no idea where to even begin. A friend of ours who had recently just bought his first home referred us to Rick and working with him was amazing from the beginning. He made the entire process so easy and was informing us on so much that we didn’t even know was involved. Thank you, We will be in touch!

Thank god we were able to meet Ricky Ramirez. He answered every one of my 1000 questions and broke the process down for me in a way that i could comprehend.He was not only extremely informative, but he was polite and courteous the entire way through. He made me and my wife feel extremely comfortable and we couldn’t be more appreciative.

She truly is an agent who listens to what your needs & wants are and doesnt stop looking until she has found the property that best suits your requirements. She is bubbly, bright, positive, kind and a go getter. Her fun and positive attitude made her a joy to work with and her honesty and energy was refreshing. I would highly recommend Kady Smith to anyone interested in purchasing a home!

But after meeting Kyle we realized it was entirely possible. Kyle is very knowledgeable about the entire home buying process and understands how to advocate for his clients. We ended up getting an amazing deal on a condo in North Park because Kyle found us credits to help with closing costs. We love the condo and its proximity to everything in SD. The home buying experience could not have been better, and we highly recommend letting Kyle find you a great home if you are looking to buy in San Diego.

Comment: Alex Farlow is the reason I am finally becoming a home owner in this ridiculously competitive home market. I could say many great things about him but I will keep it short.I had the pre-approval letter but not the desire to even bother looking for houses anymore. One day Alex calls me and asks me about my home buying process. I explained, I vented, and he tells me how he can help me out. More than anything I enjoyed talking to him because of his personality and how he said he moves fast. I live a super fast paced lifestyle (just like any other resident in the U.S.) and he said if I wanted to see a home just to let him know, hell move fast and work with my crazy schedule. He said he could even accommodate a video-call to my fiancee during one of her breaks at work so she could also see the home.We only saw one home and we nailed it. That is just insane. I just couldnt believe that Alex had sent me exactly what I was looking for. Its almost like a build your own pizza where you choose the toppings but in this case -- a home! (Laughing emoji)The condo had (23) offers, they considered only eight of those and at the end of the day they chose our offer. That was not because of anything that I may have done but rather than what Alex suggested we do. Networking is a powerful tool. You may have similar skills or work experience but at the end of the day it all depends on who you know to land the job. In this case, I feel having an awesome realtor works almost the same way networking does.Alexs dedication, knowledge and his passion for helping people made me trust in him. The process was quick and with minimal and minor issues. Alex proved me wrong in believing that customer service didnt exist anymore.

Comment: Steven Addobati is going to be one of the greatest real estate agents in San Diego in due time. I couldnt recommend him enough to anyone looking to buy a home.Steve has been helping me for 2+ years as I shopped for a home. Throughout all the searches, the failed escrows (not our fault) and to the actual purchase of my now new home - Steve was incredibly gracious, friendly, and professional. I know he originally came from Disney, and all that customer service training and quality care to clients shines through. Steve is prompt, always willing to chat, and will always be upfront if he doesnt know something but gets back to you quickly with an answer. Buying a home is pretty scary and I had a many honest conversations with Steve and he never applied pressure into me doing anything I wasnt comfortable with. Anything that had me worried, he would dig into and return with facts, numbers, history of the area or someone to speak to. I never had to ask, he just did it - who does that!?If youre like me and you hate real estate agents, because they come off like car salesmen, individuals who are just trying to hit a quota and cash a paycheck and treat you like another number in their system - then you need to call Steve. Hes the opposite of all those people. He genuinely cares and brings so much humanity into the largest transaction a person will ever go through.I cannot thank Steve and the Porchlight team enough! You guys rock!

We felt confidence and we knew that he would get rid of all the stress other buyers are experiencing with new agents who don’t know how the homebuying process works! We just got pre approved, with help of Felisa - a lender who works only for their team, and ready to go shopping! He is showing us a lot of off-market inventory which helps us not to compete in this crazy market!

Comment: My husband and I have recently moved from New England to Southern California and were absolutely blessed to have been put in contact with Kyle Alberto. His charismatic personality in combination with his high standards and professional approach surpassed our expectations. Kyle was enthusiastic and patient with us during our stressful home search process and made sure to exude confidence and knowledge of the local market.Kyle was punctual to all of our appointments, ensured to triple check all of our requirements and left none of our questions unanswered. Kyle has earned himself a couple of happy clients and we absolutely recommend homebuyers in the San Diego area to give Kyle Alberto a call.You will be glad you did!

Comment: Kyle helped me purchase my first home in San Diego!! He was super communicative and made the process easy and stress free. In a tough market we beat out multiple offers based on his suggestions on how to write our terms to get the offer accepted, we beat out 20 other offers!!! Great all around experience and I recommend anyone buying their first home to work with Kyle!

Comment: Our Realtor, Shannon Wineman, with Porchlight Socal, is AH-MAY-ZING!!!!She was everything I could have hope for in a real estate agent… Knowledgeable, thoughtful, detail oriented, focused, supportive, understanding, etc. Buying a home is crazy stressful! Shannon never came across as stressed or frustrated. Always calm and reassuring, but making sure things were happening in the background. Shannon help us come up with an offer that was competitive, yet within our comfort zone. Never once did she try to push us in a direction that we didn’t want to go in.Our first home buying experience was a huge success because of Shannon.She’s so wonderful that I recommended her to my parents, who are selling their home soon.I really could just go on and on about how wonderful Shannon is. In the end, she is a truly caring individual that will work her butt off to help you obtain your goals!

Comment: I have met with two other realtors before finding Rick. And thank god I found him! What a difference this man makes!! I have had the pleasure of working with Rick for the past several months and his dedication to my family will not be forgotten. He helped with selling my moms home and finding one for us. She received more than she was expecting and was happy with the ease of it all. Rick is extremely professional, he definitely knows this business but what makes him stand out is how genuine he is. He really took the time to hear what our family needed and he never veered from that. I always felt I had his full attention and he was dedicated to us. You can reach him day and night. He’s never pushy, he just offers advice and knowledge. He offers a helping hand and he truly means it. He bought and installed our smoke detectors for us as I wasn’t able to do it in time. Who does that?!?! Rick goes above and beyond!

Comment: Jason Plunk worked with my mother in law who is 87 years old. We live in San Diego California. She wanted to move out of the State to her daughters home. Her home was full of memories and selling the home was emotional. Her first time doing anything as big as this. Jasons excellent communication skills, patience and understanding helped her tremendously. He gained her trust and she succesfully made the sale and the move. I will recommend him and the Porchlight Team to others without hesitation.

Comment: Nicole helped me sell my first property and buy my second property in about two months. She put in a lot of work and drove many miles to help me achieve my goals. I felt like she was on my team rooting for me and advocating for me. Nicole answered all my questions and kept in contact whenever I had a question or concern. I felt like we were a team and she listened to my feedback, concerns, ideas and worked with them. Overall, Nicole made a stressful process like dual escrows with a 1031 fun, if that ever was even possible she pulled it off! If and when I need help in the market I will always call and work with Nicole! Honorable mention for negotiating with the sellers agent and getting the price reduced to my offer! Thank you Nicole!

My real estate agent is AJ Carmona and he went above and beyond when we were selling and buying homes. My family’s home was only listed on the market for 5 days and we received multiple offers. I definitely recommend AJ if you’re looking for a knowledgeable professional who will follow up with you regularly.

Comment: We recently relocated to Carmel Valley from abroad and needed someone with local expertise and someone who could guide us through not only the real estate process, but also someone who knew the local schools and could advise on that front also.Not only did we need someone to trust our move to, but we needed someone who was really on top of the latest developments in the market given the current COVID-19 conditions.We could tell that Artsiom really did his research and knew exactly what current best practices are. He showed us homes and dialed us in for the inspection using Zoom so that we could go back and review the recordings even after the showing. Brilliant!Artsiom and PorchLight Realty Group helped us navigate unchartered territory and we are very thankful and even though we decided to postpone our immigration we will definitely hire him and recommend him for all our friends!

Comment: I recently purchased my first condo and could not be more pleased that Sam was by my side. I initially met her through a random showing, when I wasnt even looking to buy, and as soon as I met her I knew I would be utilizing her services.Once I decided to buy, I had my lender connect us. She did nothing short but exceed my expectations! She was extremely knowledge about VA loans, super motivated to find listings, constantly checking with propertys realtors with questions, and made me feel comfortable without feeling pressured about finding a property. Her biggest goal is making her clients happy! Being a first time homebuyer I was pretty stressed and she was able to make me feel calm and confident with all decisions along the way.If anyone is looking for an amazing realtor with the best energy in the world look, no further than Samantha OBrien!

He has an eye for detail and is always one step ahead. He guided us and was at our disposal for any questions and concerns.Justin is amazing and we are so fortunate to have had him on our journey. He helped us to find the perfect home, and I would recommend him to anyone who is searching for a new home.Thanks Justin!

Comment: Mark helped us buy our first home and we are so glad we decided to work with him. The process of buying your first home under normal circumstances is emotional, stressful, and long - but we were doing it during a global pandemic! Mark was incredibly patient and helpful and never pushy with us.While Mark was our agent, we felt the support of the entire PorchLight team. If we wanted to view a home with short notice and Mark wasn’t available, there was always a competent, professional team member to help us.We made several offers and Mark counseled us to walk away from some after our offer was accepted because it was more important to him that we love our first house than for him to get a sale. When we found “the one”, he continued to advocate for us and his shrewd negotiating skills ended up saving us tons of money.We’ve been in our home for 2 months now and we are still pinching ourselves because we can’t believe that this is OUR house! Through all the ups, downs, and unknowns, Mark and his team always had our backs with our best interests as their guiding light. Without the PorchLight team, I can’t imagine having such a positive outcome. Thank you PorchLight!

Comment: My goal in writing this is to have you, the reader, think there is no way this can be a real, unpaid for review. I assure you it is very real. Getting connected with Justin was like finding a tailor who can make your suit fit just right. Let me explain.During my first phone call with Justin he immediately started by asking what my wife and I needed in a home. Justin made it clear he wouldnt waste our time showing homes we would give a hard no. Throughout the entire process it was abundantly clear Justin was not here to sell us the first home we saw.Soon, and I mean like immediately after my first call Justin quickly got to work. Filtering and tailoring our needs, matching us with homes in areas we wanted to be in, well within our budget.Ill add we did not make this process easy for him as my wife is a police officer with a crushing schedule and Im active military stationed overseas. That did not stop Justin from working around my wifes schedule and the 11 hour time difference for me.Justin always found a way to keep us both connected, grounded, and aware of everything in the process. I cant recall a single time he didnt answer the phone, or response to a text or email.Every question we asked was answered quickly, and with great confidence. His knowledge of the inland empire area was obvious and impressive. What I found even more impressive than his confidence and knowledge was his ability to adapt to unique challenges. Again, let me explain.If you are reading this several years from now then you may remember COVID-19. Despite being in the middle of a global health pandemic, working with a deployed service member, and a police officer with rotating schedules, Justin tackled these with ease. Nothing that stood in his way kept him from professionalism and supporting us.If you are reading this as a first time home buyer there is something you need to know. Real Estate agents make money based on a percentage split between themself, and the selling agent (flip flop if youre selling your home). This means its lucrative for them to sell you the most expensive home as fast as possible. Basically the equivalent of a used car salesman.I am here to assure you the used car salesman example I just discribed is NOT what you are getting yourself into with Justin. Throughout the entire process he always reminded my wife and I we have time and we did not need to settle. This is one example it was clear Justin actually cared about putting in a home we loved.I also cant forget about Justins assist and paperwork ninja Sarah! She handled everything professionally and clearly. There is a LOT of paperwork in this process and it all went smoothly without error.In conclusion, the reason I am writing Justin and his team this lengthy and glowing review is because i wanted to give him back something which reflected the quality of his work. Justin is a hard worker, who will tell you the truth, and genuinely cares about finding you the perfect place.If you are reading these reviews to decide which agent to go with, Im here to say you cant go wrong with Justin. Steady in the chaos.- Jake and Tyller.

Erin was able to guide and educate us on the current process. She is extremely flexible, knowledgeable and professional as well as a genuinely nice person!! Erin cared about what our desires were and offered an honest assessment of the properties that we considered.

Comment: The process of buying or selling a home is intimidating because its so confusing and cumbersome. If you need someone in the San Deigo area who is an expert in real estate and will take the time to explain your options and answer any questions you may have then turn to Mitch Allen (with PorchLight). This guy is a wealth of real estate knowledge, keeps it very real and puts a lot of time and dedication to making sure your personal goals are met. Working with him feels like doing business with a trusted friend.

Comment: I found Erin by going through Veterans United iniatially as my lender and felt like she was very honest and flexible when it came to me being uneasy about sticking with one lender. I ended up going with a different lender which was better for me but I stuck with Erin. She helped me get my expectations in check with my house search in San Diego. I wanted a big yard and wasnt initially looking into condominiums. I was pretty sure that I wanted to live in the North Park area and I ended up loving the condo that she showed me with in walking distance to Balboa Park. It didnt have the yard but you cant beat the location. Erin was very flexible with my schedule and willing to meet me late in the afternoons and I was able to contact her anytime with questions. I ended up traveling with work during my closing and she helped me out immensely while I was gone and I was able to close on time. Thanks again Erin for all your help!

Comment: If you’re looking to buy a home, Joe is definitely the guy you want. My wife and I were looking to buy a house instead of renewing our current lease. A friend of mine referred Joe to us and I couldn’t be more thankful. As first time home owners both of us were clueless about how it all worked and had so many questions. The first day we met Joe, he made everything seem so simple and definitely calmed our nerves about home buying. We both have crazy schedules being in the military and Joe was able to always meet us and answer questions for us anytime of the day. From Day 1 of just talking about what we wanted in a home, to going out and looking at houses, to finding the perfect house and finally closing on the house Joe was right there with us and really made the process so easy. Joe really is THE BEST! Even after closing he still has checked up on us and made sure everything was going good. I would recommend him to anyone I know buying a home or selling.

Joe is honest, professional and attentive. He is sincere when he tells you that he’s there for you if you need anything and prompt to respond to any request. Joe is extremely patient showing us as many homes till we found the right fit. The home we were interested in already had an offer. Joe did his magic and we were in escrow the next day. He was very informative throughout the whole buying process always reassuring us that we were moving forward. Everything went as scheduled and we even closed earlier than expected saving us $$.Joe made home buying such a wonderful experience for us. We would recommend him to everyone we know!

Comment: I worked with Josh from Porchlight last year, and given that this was the first time I had ever considered buying a house, he was able to answer all my questions. Honestly, the home buying business was pretty daunting to me, but he broke the whole process down for me :). Porchlight has the awesome website where I was able to constantly check listings, and Josh showed me like a bunchhhh of houses ((I was very picky)).Overall, I would highly recommend Porchlight to anyone that is looking to buy a home. I can’t speak to selling a home yet, but based off their professionalism and knowledge I would say they are the agency to go with.

Comment: My wife and I transferred to the San Diego area from across country. Looking for a Realtor who specializes in VA home loans was our goal. Our sponsor immediately recommended Erin of PorchLight by a fellow Veteran who had nothing but great things to say about her. Erin has family who are former military members and therefore understands the challenges of a VA home loan. She is well connected and was very prompt in communicating with us. She and her team made the entire experience fun and painless. The best part of our entire experience was that she found us a home in a very short period of time. Erin is the consummate professional who will work hard and stand by your side throughout the whole experience. Thank you Erin for a job well done!

Comment: Getting through home buying felt so tedious at first but I’m incredibly grateful for the support of Porch Light. Josh Taylor was super informative, got to the very nutty gritty of the details I needed and it was way quicker then I could’ve imagined. He worked within my budget by guiding me to a special website and explaining the breakdowns with patience (even after hours during a late night panic!) I highly recommend!!

Comment: I am so thankful and grateful I found Erin Burns! Erin is a great realtor who is very professional, efficient, extremely knowledgeable of the current real estate market and most importantly Honest. She was able to turn what had been a nightmare into a Dream come true. The previous realtor I had been dealing with was not very experienced nor very personable which was the exact opposite with Ms. Burns. Once I gave her details on what I was looking for boy did she get to work. Erin did a great job of emailing/texting me properties she felt fit what I was interested in. She was always available on short notice and was willing to work around my busy schedule to show me different listings, she even took me out on a Sunday to show me properties. She made everything so easy and smooth. Once we found exactly what I had been looking for she really proved to be a superstar in her field. She did all the research in what other homes in the area were selling for (which I learned are called Comps 😉) and always gave me a quick and honest answer. I truly felt that she always had my best interest in mind and was not just in it for the commission. Erin kept in communication with me throughout the whole process which I believe was the reason my deal was able to get done in before my 30 day escrow. Hearing her voice congratulate me on the purchase of my new DREAM House was a day I wont be forgetting anytime soon. If youre in the market to buy or sell a home I strongly recommend Erin Burns.

Comment: Joe was a great realtor. At first I learned a lot watching his live videos on Instagram and those information helped us to have a more clear vision of what we want to have. Later on, he became our agent and he helped us sell our home and buy a replacement. He was very professional, helpful, and responsive and this new place is awesome specially with a nice bottle of champagne he gifted us... Absolutely loved the experience. If you want a great realtor agent do not look further.

Comment: Joe Vahedi is an incredible person and an even better realtor. He made our first home buying experience so easy and was so friendly during the entire process. He even saved us a bunch of money on the house by helping us with the offer. If you are looking for an honest, well educated, very professional realtor in SoCal then Joe is your guy. Do yourself a favor and go with Porchlight and ask for Joe! Thanks again!

Comment: Erin Burns was awesome! I decided it was time to get out of renting in Pacific Beach and start paying towards my own first home. Erin was so helpful and full of knowledge. She definitely listened to what I wanted and what I didn’t want, and always had a quick answer to any questions. She stayed on the loan team and the seller agent to make sure I closed before my lease was up, so I didn’t have to break it. I highly recommend Erin.

Comment: Sarah was the most transparent agent that Ive interacted with. I met with 3 agents prior to meeting Sarah and she was the first to make me feel like she was on my team. We had been searching for almost a year, but when we met Sarah it finally felt like we were on the right path. She was real with us about what we could get and she led in the right direction. We are so happy with the condo we closed on and havnt had any unexpected issues yet (I hear thats rare). Thank you Sarah for helping us find a place to call ours here in Coastal North County... we didnt think this was possible.

Comment: Joe Vahedi was the best realtor that i have ever worked with and I highly recommend him for any realty related needs.My wife and i met with Joe and laid out a plan to sell our house and buy a new one. Joe got the deals done - we sold our house above asking and got our new house under - along with closing costs and with extremely fast closing times Joe was always available and was quick to respond to our calls and texts. He was able to reduce the stresses that came with buying/selling and kept us moving the right direction.We love our new house and property and will continue recommending Joe to all of our friends.

Comment: Thanks for everything! Working with Mark, Alli and everyone we met from the PorchLight team was such a pleasure. We wanted a listing agent that had expert knowledge of our neighborhood & the market, innovative marketing & sales ideas and a proven success record - and that’s what we got from Mark. We are grateful for your hard work, advice and showing our house at its best. We were delighted by the professional photos plus custom video and website for our listing. Your friendliness, responsive and go-getter attitude shined and it’s no surprise everything you brought to the table got us multiple offers at our first open house and a successful closing. Simply amazing. If we buy again in San Diego - we know who we’re going to first! In the meantime, we’ll be referring you to our friends!

Comment: I would give all the stars, Thank You’s, Positive Reviews and praise to Mark Pattison and Alli Urguby for their exceptional work. Mark and Alli and the entire team were nothing less than perfect. Mark & Ali brought not only her expertise to her area (I wanted Urban, Central San Diego Only) they brought warmth, kindness, professionalism and joy to the purchase of the Condo they helped my father and I find. When our budget, wants, needs or desires shifted, Mark or Alli met the challenge with a smile and simply adjusted. The entire Porchlight team gave us the feeling of being their only, and exclusive clients. My constant emails, texts, and phone calls never went unanswered even when they were in remote areas or on vacation! Our purchase had many moving parts with My Dad’s VA loan, a Notary visiting him in the hospital to sign final documents, our travelling, and odd hours. Mark & Alli worked tirelessly for me for over 8 months to find the perfect home. We had a fast 15 day seamless close. I will continue to share glowing reviews about my experience with Mark, Alli and everyone involved. We are forever grateful, and truly felt like we made new friends through this home purchase.Janelle & Joe

Comment: We couldnt think of a better, more qulaified real estate agent to work with than Shannon Russel. When making such a large decision, we wanted to work with someone we could trust. Her professionalism, knowledge, honesty, enthusiasm, negotiating and closing skills, and work ethic are much appreciated and respected. We highly recommend her to anyone searching for a new home.

This team goes above and beyond with integrity and works hard to get the best for each client. I would highly recommend working with them!

Comment: Mark Pattison was an absolute professional while buying a home in San Diego. We were looking for a house for our family and he always showed us houses that matched our wants, needs and price range. Mark was patient with us and we didnt always enjoy the house hunting experience. He knows the San Diego market extremely well and he found us our perfect house. Mark even took the time to introduce us to all the major neighborhoods in the areas we were looking so we were better able to narrow in on the ones we liked.When making the offer, he knew exactly what to do to get the deal while all along looking out for our interest. In a crazy market like this, I feel we were blessed to have come across him.We would highly recommend Mark to our San Diego friends and family for any of their Realtor needs.
