So happy we found Teresa! We had just relocated to Orange County from the East Coast and started the house search in March 2022. After being unsatisfied with two previous realtors (one was pushy and arrogant, the other became unresponsive), we decided to use Zillow to request a home tour for a house in Laguna Niguel. Zillow matched us up with Teresa and she quickly contacted us to set up an appointment to tour the house. Although we decided against that house, we immediately wanted to use Teresa as an agent. She is friendly, insightful, well connected, and very knowledgable about the Orange County real estate market. Upon the first time we met, Teresa even provided us a contact for an excellent local mortgage lender with the lowest interest rates we were able to find! In addition, because of her relationship with the lender they were able to coordinate directly, making our lives even easier. Over the next few weeks, Teresa helped us to navigate the market insanity of Spring 2022. She promptly sent us new listings for homes that fit our price range & location, while also taking time to get to know our “must haves” & “deal breakers” to ensure the listings she sent were personally curated for us. When it came time to begin making offers, this is where Teresa truly shined. She consistently took the initiative to interface with the seller realtors to obtain any insights that would help make our offers as competitive as possible. After losing out on three houses to all-cash offers, our fourth offer for a beautiful house in the Montbury on The Hill Community of Lake Forest was accepted! We offered an extremely short escrow period to be competitive, along with strategic terms all under Teresa’s guidance. She was instrumental in coordinating with our lender, the seller’s agent and others throughout the escrow process to ensure that all of the tasks were completed. She even worked her magic to get us some additional closing credits from the seller and also provided us additional contacts for contractors and home professionals. Overall we highly recommend Teresa! She has been so helpful in navigating the home buying process, and we look forward to working with her again in the future!

Teresa is very professional and kind! We were looking for a home in a crazy market and almost lost hope in finding anything, but she would keep reminding us that if it’s meant to be the right home will find us! I would definitely recommend her to my friends and family!
Teresa was so quick to respond, understood our wants/needs, and helped us buy our first home in an amazing neighborhood! Highly recommend working with Teresa. She really goes above and beyond.
