David is one of the best realtors in the game today. He’s perfect for anyone looking to find their first time home or upgrade to their dream home. He was always ready to answer questions and provide insight and assistance for any questions we had during our purchase. Would recommend him to anyone looking for a top shelf realtor.

My fiancé and I had the best home buying experience with David! Not only did he find us our dream home within our budget, he found ways to connect with the seller through her agent and structure the proposal so that our offer stood out and was accepted. This is our first home together, so there were some stressful times. Thankfully, David helped us navigate the process every step of the way. He was so patient, available, informative, and he deescalated our stress levels when we needed it most. He was active in finding inspectors, contractors for repairs, and helped us envision the big picture view of our home's potential. We would buy or sell again with David without a doubt. I've even referred him to my sister! Thank you for everything David. We really appreciate you.

David was very personable, helpful and informative throughout this process. He helped us know what next steps to take and was positive. He made the buying our new home a fun journey!
Working with David Zarraonandia was exceptional. From the very beginning of our home-buying journey to the final closing, David demonstrated unparalleled professionalism, expertise, and dedication. He always responded to our questions promptly and took the time to truly understand our needs and preferences. David was the one who recommended checking out the home that we closed on and we absolutely love it. I would highly recommend David Zarraonandia to anyone looking for a realtor.

David is a real gem to work with. He looks after your interests, very helpful and knowledgeable in the buying and selling process and all things related. He makes the buying process less stressful. You can't go wrong in having David as your agent. And he teaches negotiation classes at local colleges. The guy to have on your side.

From the first moment that I met my realtor David Zarraonandia, I recall how positive, driven, and hardworking he was. I had brief conversations with him about California real estate, and unlike so many others in California, David would constantly inspire me to not give up on my dream of being a homeowner. He was informative, encouraging, resourceful, and full of knowledge that slowly started “lighting a fire” in me to actually start changing my mindset from impossibility to possibility to probability to certainty. It’s as if David began to single handedly reignite that dream of mine to be a homeowner, but better yet, he inspired me to take action. The dream was no longer a dream; it was a reality. We started looking at homes in January 2023, and I was delighted! David took each home... Show More

My Real Estate agent was David Zarraonandia. He is a college Professor here in San Diego and has a Master’s in Business Administration. His professionalism, his communication skills amazes me. He is an excellent dealmaker and his dealmaking wizardry helped us to close the deal at 8% under the asking price in the 9-8-9 school district. I highly recommend him to you if you are looking something in the greater San Diego area.
I have already recommended Redfin and DAVID!! To everyone I know!! He was super professional and honest, walked me through step by step, attended many many many tours personally (I had a long list of wishes) and once even laid on a floor to help me measure a space in my newly purchased dream home!! He was super knowledgeable about a great many topics both inside the houses as well as the process I was getting myself into. With his help, I was able to make a well informed decision, that I’m SUPER happy with!! I can’t thank he and his team enough, he didn’t give up and helped me stay positive through the yucky financial stuff too. They really went out of their way to provide a personalized service!
The most friendly and knowledgeable agent. It was our first time buying and he was so good about explaining everything to us in a way that we actually understood and provided the coaching we needed to get to the finish line without making us feel pressured to make a quick decision! Can’t recommend enough!

David was one of the greatest professionals across all industries my wife and I have ever worked with. He was always quick to respond and act. Selling our house was one of the most stressful times of our lives. Every single time David would answer the phone we were able to breathe a sigh of relief knowing he's got us. He took care of everything from start to finish. If you need the best agent, or you need the most money possible from the sell of your house. David is the one to use.

David is amazing. I can't say enough good things about him. I sold my house with Redfin years ago with a different agent and had a good experience, but the level of attentiveness and customer service David gave me, on the buying side, was above and beyond. It took me 4 months in this brutal market to find a house I liked and get an offer accepted. Most of the time I wanted to see a house the day it went on the market to have the best shot at submitting a competitive offer. David always responded to my requests to tour right away and got me an appt as soon as humanly possible. When he couldn't come with me because he was already booked, he quickly set me up for the tour with another Redfin agent. I always preferred to tour with David, though, because he really knows about houses! When we... Show More

We purchased a family home with David and it was a real pleasure to work with him throughout the whole process. He was always available, patient and helped us with countless viewings until we found the right place. David was our trusted advisor throughout the offer and escrow process, he was knowledgeable, gave us many great recommendations and always had our best interests in mind. In addition to his wealth of knowledge as an agent, David also has a kind and caring personality and our whole family enjoyed getting to know him as part of the process.

David went above and beyond what I ever expected from an agent. It was such a pleasure to work with him as a first time buyer. He has endless patience for questions and a huge wealth of knowledge and expertise to share. I trusted him to always have my best interests in mind and he lives up to it by always going to bat for you with finding potential homes to view, smart tactics to get your offer accepted, and dealing with inspectors and sellers and everything else in escrow. He noticed a pretty significant find during my inspection that the inspector himself was about to miss before walking out the door and we got it noted in the report and were able to use that to get repairs done! He is friendly and responds very quickly to your questions and requests, and I felt so confident having... Show More

I read David’s other reviews and I second every single one of them. If I read the reviews, I would have picked him as my agent at the beginning! But like others, it was a pure chance. I met him at one of the Redfin tours. Redfin attracted me because I felt I could see any of the houses without bothering agents. So, I kept looking at the houses, and gradually I got to know him better and better. Then, our journey or quest for finding a perfect home began. It was the time of extreme seller’s market. We made the first offer, thinking it was the home I would buy. Wrong. Then, the second offer… then the third offer thinking the third time was a charm… One of the houses, we even made an offer without seeing, offering $200,000 above listing, and still we lost. Imagine the stress level I felt,... Show More

We met David purely by coincidence. We were first time buyers and we went to see a house with another agent from another company, but she was completely useless, she didn’t tell us anything about the process of buying a house, she failed to submit our offer in time etc. Then we decided to view a house from Redfin, this is where we met David! He was very friendly, informative and really really helpful. He spent hours telling us about the home purchase process. I am very grateful for his help! Whenever we needed to view a house, he was happy to be there any day. We were even under impression that we were the only clients he had at the moment (obviously he had many many others). Overall the experience we had was overwhelmingly positive, we recommended David to our friends. Thank you, David!

I'll give David a huge 5 stars for costumer service. As an extremely busy ICU charge RN buying a house during this pandemic would have been extremely difficult. But thanks to David everything went well from start to finish. He went above and beyond to accommodate my busy schedule. Thank you so much!
WOW!!!! Where do I even start? David Zarraonandia is beyond amazing. From day, one he was constantly going beyond what was expected. He made the home buying experience enjoyable, fun, exciting, and easy! In such a difficult market, he was able to create a strategic game plan that helped me find the home of my dreams. David's knowledge and skillset also helped us create a winning offer even though there were several other offers/buyers. One thing that stood out about David was his ability to put my interests first. He did this through his honesty, amazing communication, and hard work. Without David, I would have never been able to purchase this home. A great example of this was when I experienced loan issues. Not only did he rally everyone together to make sure everyone was on the same... Show More

David came in on the 11th hour to complete a close for a new purchase. He was attentive, responsive, and provided great support and advice when needed. With the last minute loss of my agent so close to closing, David was very reassurance and put his best foot forward to ensure closing was done on time, and reassured the seller at all times that nothing would stop the process. I highly recommend David for your real estate needs.

He went above and beyond to give us a complete picture of the area, the property, the fittings, and everything else we needed to consider to make an informed decision. With his clear knowledge of building structure and prior experience working with a builder for multiple years, he knows the ins and outs of the real estate industry and can guide you to make the best decision.
