Joe made a complicated process easy and I would definitely work with him again. I sold another home in a different area with a different realtor around the same time and Joe was head and shoulders above the other realtor.

Joe and his father went above and beyond to help me through a very tough house sale due to my personal situation. They worked tirelessly to make sure the process was as smooth as possible.

Joe Royds was great to work with. He really went out of his way to make us feel comfortable selling our home. He is friendly, knowledgeable, and we couldn’t have done this without him.

Joe is extremely accommodating and flexible with his schedule. We have worked with Joe for about a year, and he has shown extreme patience with us as we looked at house after house. You know when you have a great agent when they don’t pressure you into buying any home, but instead points out the potential flaws it has. Joe has demonstrated this, and has gone above and beyond in helping us find our new home.

Joe was such a pleasure to work with. He was very patient in answering all of our questions (we had a lot as first time homebuyers) and was knowledgeable and guided us through the entire process. We would definitely work with Joe again in our next home buying process.

Joe is very personable and knowledgeable and works hard to coordinate things. If he can’t be there, he will always have an associate to cover for him. This is our second purchase in the last year using Joe so that should say it all. We have referred a few friends to him as well.

We were 100% pleased with our Redfin agent, Joe Royds, throughout the entire process of buying our new home. From day one, Joe was communicative, proactive, friendly, thorough, upbeat, strategic, responsive, respectful, and fun to work with. He worked well with the selling agent to represent our interests and get the information we needed. He coached us on crafting an offer that was within our price range but strong enough to be accepted. He has a real talent for the business of real estate and a strong network of relationships that made our purchase process easier than I could have imagined. I highly recommend Joe to any buyer out there!

We recently bought a house via Joe and the rest of the South Bay Redfin team. The team was always incredibly responsive, often getting us in to see houses the same day they came on the market. We particularly enjoyed seeing houses with Tanja, one of Joe's team members. She always noticed and pointed out details that helped us quickly decide if the property was a good fit, or not. Joe wrote up our offers and helped us negotiate the entire purchase and closing process, negotiating a few items back and forth with the sellers. We were doing a 1031 exchange and operating on a tight timeline, and I really appreciate the fact that once we had sold our first property and operating on a tight timeline, the Redfin team made it all happen within our time constraints. Nicely done South Bay team!

Working with Joe, made us feel like we had a pro on our side. He knows all the nuance of buying and selling homes and helped us understand the process. He worked at all hours to answer questions and make sure that our concerns were addressed. He has a great ability to read people and we always felt like we were on the same page as he executed our sale. We were left feeling super happy with our experience and learned a ton in the process.

We were extremely please with Joe's professionalism as he went above & beyond what he needed to do for us. He patiently worked with us as we searched for the perfect home every week for 4 months until we finally found the one. He guided us through the whole process from beginning to end and was flexible with us, allowing us to communicate with him at all hours of the day which was important as my husband & I worked graveyard. He was quick & timely with his responses & was very efficient with his work. We finally closed on our home last week & are excited to spend more years in it all thanks to Joe!! Thank you to Joe & his team--John, Tara, & Tanja, for all their hard work & patience!!!

We purchased our home with Joe. He was very helpful during the process. He is very patient and he doesn't stress the buyer like some other agents do. I definitely recommend Joe.

Joe doesn't push you to buy home. He is very responsive and active. When it comes down to negotiate the price, he is the one you are looking for. He is one of the reason that I won the bidding war.

We had a great experience working with Joe.
He is an excellent communicator and always kept us in the loop throughout the process. He made himself super available and would always be a quick phone call, text or an email away whenever we had any questions.
Aside from that, he went above and beyond his job as a realtor and made sure our experience was as smooth as possible.
I'd definitely recommend him to my friends & family!

I had a fantastic experience working with Joe as my buyer agent. Joe is experienced, friendly, and excels at communication.
Joe was very efficient in both communication and execution. I met with Joe on a Thursday, gave him a list of properties on Friday, visited the properties on Saturday, submitted offers on Sunday. Soon after, I was in escrow by on Thursday, one week after we met.
One of my favorite aspects of working with Joe, was that he was prompt and clear in his communication. He responded back to me usually immediately. If not available at the time, he got back to me within the hour every single time.
Overall, I had one smooth experience with Joe. I would recommend him to anyone who's on the market buying or selling.
