Testimonials

Nestor and Michelle helped us upgrade to a larger home in Woodbridge and we couldn’t be happier with them. Our young-ish family had outgrown our current home but we couldn’t stand the thought of leaving the Woodbridge area. Given our highly specific constraints and the challenging market we knew we needed a realtor with a huge amount of local expertise. We also needed an agent who was willing to form a potentially long term partnership with us as we methodically searched for the perfect home.

Michelle and Nestor were absolutely perfect for us during that process. They know every nook and cranny and floorplan in Woodbridge. They really helped us hone in on what we were looking for in a house and they helped keep us focused on those priorities.
Our search wasn’t a straightforward process. It took longer than we initially thought and was almost derailed by an unexpected change in employment, but Nestor and Michelle stuck with us. They never made us feel rushed, or like we needed a snap decision. Quite the opposite, they kept us calm when we almost jumped at a few houses that weren’t right for us.

In the end we were working with them for almost 6 months before we found the right house. But by the time that house came on the market we had honed in on exactly what we wanted. Purchasing a home is never going to be stress free, but they made the entire purchase process as easy as can be. They expertly guided us through the offer process, including some tricky counter conditions. They kept escrow organized and moving, making sure that everything got done on time, but never making us feel overloaded. They even brought us moving boxes 🙂

As good as they were as buyer’s agents, they were even better when it came time to sell our previous home. We basically just gave them the keys the day after we moved and they took care of everything. We gave them a budget for how much we were willing to spend getting the condo ready and they made recommendations on what work would make the best return on investment, lined up the contractors, managed the repairs, and did an absolutely fabulous job staging. Michelle and Nestor executed a great marketing plan for the condo and then put on an amazing open house that not only showcased the house, but the location and why we were so set on staying in Woodbridge. In the end we were able to choose between several strong offers on our house and had an easy escrow and closing.

We spent a lot of time “auditioning” real estate agents; meeting them at open houses, soliciting recommendations from friends, and ultimately setting up meetings with several. Nestor and Michelle were our clear favorites from that process and looking back we absolutely made the right choice, both financially and for our peace of mind. When we started I did not expect I’d be adding my real estate agent to the Christmas card list, but that’s where we are. When you work with Nestor and Michelle it feels more like you’re with a friend than a business relationship.

Nestor and Michelle were recommended by no less than three of our trusted friends and now we know why. After exploring various options to sell our home as well as meeting with another agent-we sat down with Nestor and Michelle. In short, experience matters. They do a thorough assessment of your home. They have a team of trusted professionals who will make your home shine and stand out among others. Marketing is well planned and executed perfectly. Communication is consistent. The housing market is ever changing and not easy to navigate which is why who you choose to sell it is paramount. We could not have done it without Nestor and Michelle and suggest you do too.

I have used Michelle and Nestor several times to lease out my condo in Woodbridge. They have been fantastic each time with great attention to detail, responsiveness and professionalism. Their insights on screening tenants and their network of repair contractors is really useful. They make the entire process hassle free! I highly recommend Michelle and Nestor if you’re looking to lease or sell your property.

If you want a dynamic team with integrity, industry expertise, and who has your best interest in mind, Michelle and Nestor are your team. I have known and worked with them in different capacities for over ten years. I am confident in their ability and work ethic which are characteristics that are important to me and the clients I recommend to them. Highly recommended - Top notch service!!!!

Our family will be forever grateful for the care we received from Michelle while selling our home. She guided us with seasoned professionalism while simultaneously listening to and honoring our needs. She tended to tasks large and small with full dedication and attention to detail. She was proactive and thorough in her communication with us, enabling us to fully trust her and feel confident our best interests were at the heart of her work. I wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend Michelle, she understands the nuances of this business and is a pleasure to work with.

I had the pleasure of working a transaction with Michelle for a home in Newport Coast. I represented the seller and Michelle represented the buyer. From the very beginning Michelle was professional and courteous and really advocated for her client without being pushy. The sellers always decide who the buyer will be and I hoped my seller would select Michelle's client because I was looking forward to working with her! After we were under contract, Michelle was extremely collaborative and together we overcame all obstacles to get our respective clients to the closing table. She is very knowledgeable and is an excellent negotiator as well. I would not hesitate to recommend her and sincerely hope I am able to work with her again!

Michelle is truly a rare gem in the mix!!
Choosing the right realtor can really make or break your buying or selling experience. Don't just pick the agent that already sold on your street. I made that mistake and had a terrible experience. Michelle was recommended to me by a friend, now I'm recommending her to you!

To say the service I received from Michelle was outstanding would be an understatement. Michelle made the experience such a breeze, I had no worries at any point when selling my home. Michelle held an open house, where she provided personalised water bottle and hand Sanitizer with my home details on them along with a lovely brochure of the house. We found our buyer from the open house and Michelle negotiated us an amazing deal including details we didn't even think about. From then onwards things continued smoothly. Michelle checked in with us often, she even messaged me a few days before Mother's Day saying she left me something at my door. It was a lovely plant with a note wishing me a happy Mother's Day. Michelle is so thoughtful also on our moving day she messaged asking if we would like her to bring us lunch. Which she did and I'm so thankful for that. Unfortunately we was moving to another state so Michelle was unable to help us find a new home. But she still checked in on us to see how house hunting was going and continued to give us advice.
Michelle thank you so much for everything you done for us, you really are an exceptional realtor. If we return to Cali we will be coming straight to you.

Thanks again from Jo.
