Fantastic experience: Elizabeth is THE go to realtor for Del Mar, Solana Beach, and RSF! She has represented us as both buyers and sellers and we love working with her. Elizabeth has decades of real estate experience, and has deep roots in Solana Beach / Del Mar. For our family, that meant that she had an extraordinary ability to understand the stage our young family was at and helped us find the right neighborhood and home for our needs. Elizabeth is a stand out because of her consultative approach, her genuine care for her clients, and her deep bench of strong, professional relationships. Her connections proved to be important in both transactions we completed with her -- she helped us get our dream home against 7+ competitive (cash) offers! We loved working with Elizabeth. If you are looking for a skilled and deeply connected realtor that you can trust, call her!
Fantastic experience: The best in the business. As a first time homebuyer, there is absolutely no one I would trust more than Elizabeth Reed. If you want to work with someone who has both the expertise in experience and the intangible humanistic skills in connection, it's Elizabeth Reed. We are a young family and had specific goals in specific micro-neighborhoods of San Diego, but also lacked experience and insight. She guided us through every step, showed us every house on and off market we might be interested in, and when it came time to close the deal, we (she) beat out multiple offers that came in within three days. None of this would have been possible working with another agent. We truly cannot recommend working with Elizabeth highly enough. You will be in the best hands possible.
Fantastic experience: Elizabeth and team were amazing. She executed our marketing plan and strategy beautifully. Her advice on how to respond to various offers was so valuable. Would recommend her 100%!
Fantastic experience: I used Liz for the sale of my $7 million luxury property in San Diego. She exhibited a high level of trustworthiness, expertise and integrity throughout the entire transaction. Myself and my partner in the sale were so grateful for her support and her knowledge of the area, which was really thorough I would relish any chance to work with Liz again!! Thank you, Liz for being the best!
Fantastic experience: We had a wonderful experience working with Elizabeth when buying our home last year. She was incredibly responsive and had an excellent understanding of the different neighborhoods, which really helped us narrow our search. Thanks to Elizabeth’s insight and guidance, we ended up buying in an area we hadn’t originally considered—but it turned out to be a great fit for us. We are very appreciative of her hard work, dedication, and commitment to helping us find our next home. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell!
Fantastic experience: We were looking to relocate from Seattle to Del Mar, so we carefully researched local agents and interviewed three realtors before choosing Elizabeth Reed. We were specifically looking for an experienced agent with long-term success, deep local market knowledge, and familiarity with neighborhoods, values, and construction quality. Elizabeth exceeded all expectations. She is highly experienced, knowledgeable, and built immediate trust with us. Throughout the process, Elizabeth was engaging, insightful, and a pleasure to work with. Her understanding of the coastal area markets was invaluable, and her guidance and negotiation skills helped us secure our dream home. What truly sets Elizabeth apart is her dedication beyond closing. When we encountered post-closing issues, she remained actively involved and ensured everything was handled properly. Elizabeth is thoughtful, professional, and genuinely cares about her clients. We highly recommend her to anyone buying or selling in the coastal area.
Fantastic experience: We recently had the opportunity to work with Elizabeth and were impressed by her professionalism, approachable manner, and attention to detail. Even in a short time, it was clear she’s dedicated to achieving great results for her clients. Highly recommended!
I’m so glad we’ve been able to work together lately, Luke! Thank you for the lovely review.
Fantastic experience: Not only was Elizabeth able to close escrow quickly and efficiently in our "dream location" of Carlsbad (near everything), but she was able to provide great contacts for all kinds of services and repairs expediting the whole buying and selling process. A true pleasure!
Thank you, Jeff. It was my pleasure working with you two. I am so excited for you to start the next chapter in beautiful Carlsbad where you will be so close to your family members.
Fantastic experience: I have had the immense privilege of working with Elizabeth for over 25 years, from purchasing our first home to downsizing when our kids went off on their own. Elizabeth has always been attentive, professional and looked out for our best interests. In addition, she also assisted our daughter in the purchase of her first home. Elizabeth is unique in that she treats all home needs and clients equally. I would without reservation recommend Elizabeth for your real estate needs!
Thank you for your kind Review, Becky—it’s crazy to think that we’ve been working together for more than 25 years, and I feel so lucky to be helping the next generation of Chamberlains find their homes in San Diego, too. So many amazing memories with you all, and many more to come!
Fantastic experience: Working with Elizabeth was an absolute dream! She helped us find our dream home in a few short months and we couldn't be happier. My husband and I were first time home buyers so naturally had many questions and fears. Elizabeth and her team were extremely knowledgeable, met us where we were at, provided us with guidance and reassurance, and made sure that we were comfortable every step of the way. Elizabeth was constantly sending new listings (on and off market) and moving the process forward. Going to an open house/listing with her was such a treat because she was seemingly friends with and knew every realtor and face in the business. In summary Elizabeth is extremely professional, hard working, kind, and the absolute best client advocate. We are forever grateful to her and her team.
Solo, thank you (and Jake!) so much for your trust in me. I miss going to open houses and listings with you two—we had such a blast! It’s so fun having you in San Diego now, and I’m excited to see you two soon!!!
Fantastic experience: Dear Elizabeth, I just wanted to thank you for your help, it was easier than I thought, you are very professional and really helped me finding the right place for my clients in San Diego. I highly recommend your services. Thank you again for taking care of them.
Thank you for the kind review, Carlos! Always happy to help your clients find home in sunny San Diego.
Fantastic experience: There's about 496 things that can go wrong when buying or selling a home. You definitely want to choose someone with a proven track record who has experience overcoming the hurdles that will be thrown at you by the banks, escrow, City of San Diego etc etc. Elizabeth and her team have seen it all and can make the transaction as smooth as possible!
Thank you for your review, Paul — I appreciate your trust and look forward to continuing to work together for many years to come!
Fantastic experience: If you're looking for an amazing, well connected, talented, kind, and savvy RE professional (who's insanely successful without the fuss, pomp and circumstance) - look no further - you've found your person. Seriously... enough said, call her already. Here's why: What can I say about such an incredibly wonderful human?! We are a family of 5 that recently relocated to SD County. Elizabeth is kind, patient, makes home shopping "pleasant" even with 3 kids, is so well connected across SD county - and even outside. Elizabeth helped us with a difficult rental situation and then helped us find the impossible home - in a specific area where nothing was for sale. Through her expertise and network, she found literally exactly what we wanted - and even the exact perfect situation for us with respect to closing timelines, etc. She even showed up to help provide design feedback during the remodel stages with little more than a quick request, takes our daughter with her for volunteer activities, and so much more. Elizabeth has become part of our family, and we feel so grateful to have met her. When you move to a new area with children (or even without), it can be an uneasy feeling. I can attribute our immediate sense of community being here to Elizabeth and her team. This is, of course, in addition to her insanely awesome skills. Elizabeth and her team set a new standard for real estate professionals - deep expertise, extensive networks to find off market inventory and DESIGN and REMODEL professionals, amazing negotiation skills - but to do all of this AND be a kind and decent person that cares deeply - beyond the transaction or potential transaction - is truly remarkable. There should be a button for 10 stars... If you made it this far, why haven't you called Elizabeth yet?! HAH!
I am so grateful the Kopers came into my life! You are a truly fantastic family, and I have enjoyed every moment, well almost every one, working with you all to make San Diego your home. I'm grateful to have recruited a new friend to volunteer with me at the Frosted Faces Foundation! Here's to many more laughs and adventures to come.
Fantastic experience: Elizabeth Reed exceeded all our expectations when helping my family sell the home we grew up in. What could have been a challenging and emotional process was made smooth and manageable thanks to her incredible expertise and dedication. She approached every hurdle with confidence, finding solutions that worked for everyone involved. Elizabeth’s professionalism, market knowledge, strategic thinking, and calm demeanor transformed what initially felt like an overwhelming endeavor into an organized, seamless experience. She stayed on top of every detail and communicated exceptionally well with my family, ensuring we felt involved and informed throughout the process. This made the entire experience not only smooth but also seemingly effortless for us. Elizabeth is truly a standout realtor, and I can’t recommend her highly enough to anyone looking to sell their home.
Thank you and the rest of the McCracken/Baker family for putting your trust in me during this challenging transition. As always, I loved spending time with you all, and I am sending you the very best in your new chapter.
Fantastic experience: I went to San Diego for a short vacation and to experience life in Southern California since I am close to retirement. Elizabeth was recommended to me by a friend and I communicated to her that I was NOT close to buying a house and that a short tour of some of the neighborhoods around San Diego was all that I was expecting . Elizabeth spend almost two days showing us around and even scheduled several visits to some properties so I would get a feel for for the different areas and housing options available . She went above and beyond what a typical agent would have done! It’s rarely the case that your realtor is a highlight of your vacation but Elizabeth Reed and her team were. I can’t think of any other realtor that we have worked with .. and we have had a few … that was as professional and as thoughtful and caring as she was!
I'm so glad your "quick vacation" will hopefully turn into a new chapter in San Diego in the future, Alex. I'm so happy that I was able to spend time with you two in this magical place. Thank you for your kind words, and for putting your trust in me! I look forward to spending more time together in the years to come :).
Fantastic experience: Great person and professional, taking care of all details even at post-closing, I felt really confident working with her and her team.
Thank you so much for trusting in me to help you find your perfect home in San Diego, all the way from Mexico! I loved every minute of working with you, and it was icing on the cake that I got to learn something new about the home-buying process for foreign nationals. That is expertise I will carry into the future thanks to you. I will always be indebted to the Schorrs for bringing your family into my world. Thank you, thank you!
Fantastic experience: Our family of four, which includes a tween daughter full of sass, a mischievous son, and a hard-to-please French husband, has always had an amazing experience with our patient, sweet, and kind agent Elizabeth Reed. She is never pushy, always attentive to our unique needs, and manages to keep the entire family happy—a feat in itself! We highly recommend her for anyone looking for a stress-free and enjoyable experience.
Of all the fun, eccentric families I have had the pleasure of working with over the last three decades, the Dupuys might just take the cake! Through all the tweendom, mischief, and French perfectionism, you were seriously a joy to get to know. Thank you for trusting me to help you with your real estate needs. Hope to see you soon!
Fantastic experience: Elizabeth and her team were extremely professional and on-point throughout our transaction. They were very responsive and gave us a high level of service and attention that is rare to find. Elizabeth Reed's robust experience, knowledge, and integrity is exceptional. Five stars all the way around. She is a true gem.
Thanks for the kind words, Shana and Tim. I'm so grateful Dr. Coles connected us, and that I was able to support you through your move from Colorado. You doctors are always among my favorite clients! We found the perfect home for two tennis and golf lovers in La Valle/Morgan Run. I'm so glad you can enjoy the active and social Rancho Sante Fe lifestyle you were seeking there.
Fantastic experience: Over the last 6 months, Elizabeth has shown me every day what an incredible Agent, professional, and person she is. As a first time homebuyer, purchasing a home is an intimidating process to look forward to - but from the first meeting, Elizabeth established what an asset she would be. She set me up for success on day one, and followed through with every meeting or showing we had. My home journey was rocky at times due to my lender, not to mention a tricky market we are in now, but with each speed bump Elizabeth was there to hold my hand, calm me down, make me smile, and get me any and all answers I was looking for. Whether that was reaching out to her colleagues or pushing forward herself, she made thing happen with such grace. I truly believe I wouldn’t be moving into the home of my dreams if it wasn’t for Elizabeth - thanks just isn’t enough!! If you are looking for a passionate, hardworking agent to get you the home you’ve always wanted, Elizabeth Reed is the one you are looking for.
I loved working with you, Megan -- I'm so glad we found you the perfect home. Through all the bumps in the road, I think we were a dream team and never lost sight of what mattered most to you in your search. Thank you for your kind words — reading this gave me a big smile and reminded me why I so love being a Realtor!
Fantastic experience: There are no words to describe the service Elizabeth shows her clients. I am beyond grateful for her expertise and knowledge throughout the process. She is hardworking and thoughtful. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for the best Real Estate agent.
I appreciate your referral, Rhonda, and I am always very happy to send my clients (and kids!) your way for best-in-the-biz Real Estate finance advising. Looking forward to many more years working together!
Fantastic experience: Elizabeth is extremely detailed and is the best agent I have had the pleasure of working with! She is knowledgeable in every aspect of buying a home!
Thank you so much Stephanie — I loved working with you, too! I hope you are enjoying your new home.
Fantastic experience: I have known Ms. Reed for more than a decade and though I have needed her representation during that time period, I have many patients who have used her services. Their response is always the same, stating that she is 'highly personalized in her approach, pays attention to detail, is calm, and an astute problem solver.' I know from listening to her over the years that she often becomes friends with her clients, helping them many years later often with subjects/issues completely unrelated to real estate. She genuinely enjoys her job and her clients, that is clear.
Thank you for your kind words Jeffrey -- I hope I will get to help you out one day, too! Until then, I will be sure to keep your toffee jar well stocked :)
Fantastic experience: Elizabeth Reed did a fantastic job as our realtor. She went above and beyond throughout the entire time that she represented us. She is one of the best realtors we have worked with over the last 40 years. We are thankful and blessed to know Elizabeth. We highly recommend her for your real estate needs. She is wonderful.
It was such a pleasure working with you, Nancy and Bob! Thank you so much for the kind review. It has been such a treat helping your family find homes in San Diego — not only your new spot in Carlsbad, but Tiffany and Sam's new home as well. I know that there will be many amazing memories created there with your beautiful granddaughters. I hope to see you all soon!
Fantastic experience: One of the best agents I've done a deal with. No drama. No nonsense. I'd work with her every day of the week and twice on Saturday. Her team is great also.
Thank you for your kind words, Vinny — the feeling is mutual. I appreciate how responsive and thoughtful you were throughout our transaction — and how you brought a good sense of humor that helped make our work even more fun. Until the next one!!!
Fantastic experience: We have been working with Elizabeth for the last 6 months and we feel so lucky to have found her! Elizabeth worked hard at trying to understand our family’s needs to make sure we found the perfect home. She is very much a real estate expert through all the steps and stages and has an amazing eye for detail. She’s very kind and has a warm personality that made us feel very comfortable from the beginning. We always felt like we were her only clients. Even though we have closed on our new home in RSF, Elizabeth still shows up to meetings with our interior designer and contractor so she truly goes above and beyond to help out. You cannot go wrong choosing Elizabeth as your realtor.
I would work with the Assenmacher family any day of the week ... William, Robbie, and the three pups included! Thank you for having faith in the San Diego sun even though you had rain on all four of your visits from Tucson! All that rain and one broken knee later, it is great knowing you found the perfect home. I appreciate your kindness throughout the process. I'm excited to see the results of your big renovation and had so much fun being a tiny part of the process for you. The Rancho Santa Fe community is so lucky to have you. I'm looking forward to making good on my promise -- we need our next date :).
Fantastic experience: Elizabeth is by far the best real estate agent we’ve ever worked with. The relationship doesn’t end when you occupy your home. She continues to support clients even after closing. On top of that, she’s a sharp negotiator and we love our home!
I'm so glad you found the perfect home (one of my favorite deals and houses in my 35 years of Real Estate) and so grateful our relationship didn't end with the deal. I so loved our ski trip to Snowmass together, Henry, and can't wait to have you two here in San Diego full-time soon. Thank you for all the fun, and for sending me so many referrals — I feel lucky to be part of your fast-growing community here.
Fantastic experience: Elizabeth Reed is truly in a league all her own when it comes to real estate and customer service. If it weren’t for her, there’s no way I would be sitting in my dream home and typing this message right now… Elizabeth is so well respected and connected within the San Diego area (especially North County) she was able to open doors to several beautiful homes before they even went on the market. Perhaps the most surprising thing about working with Elizabeth: after she closed the deal on our house, she has never stopped helping us. She’s the first person we call when we need to find a maintenance or repairman. Heck, she even babysat our daughter one time! If you are lucky enough to find Elizabeth Reed, just know…you’ve hit the jackpot!
Amy, you are my referral queen. Thank you for bringing so many of your amazing relatives, colleagues, and even a few great strangers into my world. I think my favorite memory was babysitting your first baby girl so you two could go on a well-deserved date night. I appreciate that you knew exactly where you wanted to raise your family, and that you had the patience to wait for the perfect spot.
Fantastic experience: Elizabeth worked with us for several years as we looked to downsize….she beared with us as we looked at many homes before we finally found the right one and she managed both the sale of our current home and purchase of our new home flawlessly and expeditiously…..it was best-ever realty experience I’ve ever had
Thank you so much for your kind review, Dave. A deal 25 years in the making :)! It was such a pleasure working with you and Lois to find your new home in Del Mar — even though Rancho Santa Fe misses you! So excited to see how your next chapter unfolds in your beautiful beach bungalow.
Fantastic experience: Elizabeth Reed and her team are the most conscientious, through and thoughful team. They follow through on researching the best value and benefits to the clients. Elizabeth has great depth of knowledge of the San Diego markets and market trends which help prospective buyers in decisionmaking. She is also well respected by other real estate brokers for her integrity and honesty. She is not just "out for the sale". She carefully reviews the properties for the right fit for the buyer- whether it be price, location or condition of the property. NEVER agressively prompting a buyer. She and her team have a great"after sale" attitude also. They share referrals on crafts people, attend to simple tasks like Re-keying! We were referred to Elizabeth by friends and it has been a great relationship over the past year finding just the "right property" for us.
Thank you, Shelley. I am so excited to have the two of you down in San Diego. I have a feeling you'll be here more than you expected — and I know all your friends and family down here feel the same way! I loved finding the right second home for you, and look forward to seeing you and Woody soon.
Fantastic experience: Elizabeth is simply AMAZING. Absolutely incredible. She was very in-tune with our needs, proactive, and a fantastic advocate for us throughout this very stressful home-buying search! She made the experience feel effortless (or relatively so) despite a very complicated escrow process. She knows everyone in the business, was able to provide immediate, high-quality references for contractors and inspectors, and knew the pitfalls to avoid. She is completely honest in her dealings with us and everyone else, which we so, so much appreciated. Definitely not looking to hoodwink anyone for a sale. It is clear that our best interest was her top priority. She works with a great team at Berkshire Hathaway. Her assistant, Devin, was very responsive and helpful, always jumping in when things had to be done under a time crunch. Could not recommend Elizabeth and her team highly enough!!!
You and Raha are the dream clients — I am so grateful for you! Your persistence, patience, and tenacity ultimately paid off big time ... and I'm so glad Pommie the pomegranate tree has finally found her permanent home. I cannot thank you enough for your support with any and all health questions I have come across with my mom, and I will never forget your amazing keynote speech raising awareness for people living with cystic fibrosis at our Berkshire Hathaway fundraiser. Friends for life!
Fantastic experience: I had the great pleasure of working with Elizabeth Reed and Devin Richard to purchase and to sell a home in San Diego. Before I made this commitment, I spend time interviewing them to make sure their expertise, ethics, integrity, and workstyle were irreproachable. Throughout both transactions, they handled things flawlessly and were a lot of fun to work with. When challenges arose, they found great solutions, quickly and seamlessly. I would highly recommend them to family, friends, and business associates. They are a winning team.
Thank you for trusting in me as your Realtor, Jocelyn! It was such a treat working with you and John and your canine kiddos. San Diego misses you, but I know that you are enjoying your next chapter in sunny Hawaii.
Fantastic experience: Elizabeth was assigned to work with our family as part of our relocation from the Bay Area to San Diego for my job. After meeting Elizabeth for the first time, I quickly realized what an absolute GEM of an agent and human being I had the fortune to work with! I feel incredibly lucky that Elizabeth was our agent- she took time to get to know our family and our unique needs. Since we didn't know the area very well, she showed us around the different neighborhoods and offered insightful perspectives on each community (and very helpful recommendations on everything from restaurants, painters, schools and nail salons!) When we finally honed in on the area we wanted to live in, and nailed down our criteria for a home, Elizabeth was laser focused on identifying the right opportunities that were coming up, even before they were officially listed. She is very well connected which is helpful in such a hot market, so we were able to get early insights to homes that might fit our needs. Since we were not living in the area yet, Elizabeth would go to some of the homes we were interested in and do Facetime calls with us to show us the properties. We set aside a weekend to come down, and Elizabeth had identified a number of listings for us to visit that were all within our criteria. The San Diego market is so hot right now, and each home is selling for 400K+ over listing with multiple offers. I had heard stories from colleagues that they had made offers on over 20 homes before finally getting an offer accepted, so I went into this market very concerned that it was going to be a long haul to buy our dream home. With her deep experience in market, Elizabeth was able to guide us effectively through the process, ensuring that we had everything in place with lenders and helped us put together very strong packages. We ended up finding our dream house and getting the offer accepted on our 2nd try! Elizabeth is also a very strong advocate for her clients and skilled in negotiating so that both buyers and sellers can get what they need. She was able to get all of the inspections done within a few days of the offer being accepted, and was skilled in negotiating the repairs we wanted that were not mandatory, without offending the sellers. Even after we closed Elizabeth is still helping us, providing links to service providers, and getting quotes from multiple painters etc. Through out this whole process, I new that Elizabeth had our best interests in mind. She really cares about the families she works with, investing a lot of time to not only ace the big things (getting her buyers in top position!) but also all the little things- noticing where there should be repairs, pointing out things that might drive you nuts over time, clearly stating the pros and cons of different communities. We were also about to sell our home in the Bay Area as part of the relocation, and she provided very useful tips to help us prepare our home to get top dollar in a hot market, and gave us good advice on interviewing agents to sell our home. Throughout this whole relocation process, I really felt like I was working strong advocate, highly experienced, well-connected professional with an absolute heart of gold. I highly recommend Elizabeth and her team if you are looking to buy or sell your home! She is a superstar!!
Astrid, you are far too kind! I have so much respect for you, your family, and your amazing work at Pfizer. Even though it is always challenging house-hunting from afar, you made it look easy — multiple trips for the Bay Area included -- with great humor and a great attitude the whole way through! Can't wait to see you two, and your beautiful daughters, soon :)
Fantastic experience: Elizabeth Reed was an absolute God-send in getting us into our home in Encinitas. Not only did she make a stressful situation easier with her calm demeanor and professionalism, but she took care of they minute details we may have missed. We are thrilled to have had the opportunity to work with Elizabeth and would do it again in a heartbeat.
Thank you for the review and for trusting me as your Realtor, Scott. It was my pleasure helping you find your new home, and you always know who to call if you need me. I adore you and your sweet family!
Fantastic experience: Elizabeth Reed is truly one of a kind. Over the many years we've worked together, she has helped me buy and sell numerous properties in Rancho Santa Fe and Encinitas. In every case, she has gone above and beyond to represent me with integrity and discretion, each resulting in a deal that has exceeded my expectations. There are a very small number of Realtors in the industry who operate at Elizabeth's level of knowledge, network, and professionalism, but I can confidently say she has provided friendship and support that goes far beyond her duty/obligation. Thank you for the loyalty and love!
Jeanne, where to begin! Thank you so much for the lovely review, my dear friend. Through our many transactions — and many, many dog walks — it has been one of the gifts of my career becoming your friend. Here's to many more years of tequila, popcorn, and well-placed Scotch tape!
Fantastic experience: Elizabeth has helped us buy twice and sell once in the past five years - she is an absolute pro and helped us stand out in a difficult and competitive market both times we purchased. We highly recommend her!
Every deal has been a treat! Thank you for working with me and for letting me spend time with two of the cutest kiddos I've ever met -- you have honestly become my extended family. Can't wait to see you, the kids and your lovely parents soon!
Fantastic experience: We were new to the greater San Diego area and Elizabeth was great from day 1. To start she took time to understand our relocation situation and share a lot of knowledge about what to expect in a challenging situation as a buyer. She then took time to show us a range of properties across a wide geographical area so we could learn about communities in the greater San Diego area and refine our search. Once we had an idea about where we wanted to focus our search she was very accommodating with us and our 2 kids (they were 1 and 3 so this was always a challenge) building flexibility in the viewing schedule and even would play with the kids and keep them occupied while we looked at properties which was above and beyond our expectations. Elizabeth’s connections throughout the industry ultimately helped us get an offer accepted and close on a great home in a tough market. We would without hesitation recommend Elizabeth to anyone.
Fantastic experience: Being my first home, Elizabeth made me feel safe, heard and respected throughout the process. From the first time we met until today, she has always been, honest, professional and patient with all our questions and concerns. She made sure we saw things in homes that might be an issue or potential problem down the road. I felt and feel very comfortable with Elizabeth and always trusted her opinion. She fought for us from our offer to our repair requests. She’s a true asset to your organization. She’s become a great friend that we will always cherish. Thank you sooo much Elizabeth for everything you did for us, in order to make our dreams come true. Affectionately, John
Thank you for standing by my side through every negotiation. I think we were a real force to be reckoned with! Your humor and dedication to the process made my job easy. Looking forward to a tequila tasting in the future in your amazing new home! Couldn't be happier for you two.
Fantastic experience: We Loved working with Elizabeth. She always had our best interests and desires at heart and in mind. Elizabeth was dedicated to finding us the right house and ensuring we received all we needed. She understood our apprehensions and took the time to explain things and answered all of our many, many, many questions. She is truly a professional and dedicated to her clients
You two made the process fun — even though we definitely toured some *very* interesting houses along the way! I can't wait to see all the magic that comes out of your amazing new kitchen. I love being a Realtor because it brings friends like you into my life!
Fantastic experience: When I needed to sell my property in Leucadia, I was referred to Elizabeth Reed by a friend who had previously worked with her. How glad I am. Elizabeth is not only a warm, honest, caring individual, she is a consummate professional. She walked me through every step of the process. She helped me find trades people to make needed repairs. She marketed the property in such a way that it sold almost immediately at a time when properties were sitting on the market. She made sure that the escrow went smoothly and closed on time. When I have real estate transactions, I will only be represented by Elizabeth Reed. She is great!
Who would have known that a referral to sell your home so many years ago would lead to a friend for life? I love every minute we spend together and appreciate you so much. I can't wait to meet Monty, and for the years of homemade bread and incredible eats to come.
Fantastic experience: Don't look any further for an amazing real estate broker…Elizabeth is who you want to work with!!! I have worked with numerous brokers on lots of real estate transactions in multiple states, and no one even comes close to Elizabeth’s professionalism, market knowledge, work ethic, and personal integrity. We first met Elizabeth when I was relocated to San Diego for a new job. We knew nothing about the area, let alone the real estate market. Elizabeth was a true bright spot in our move to the West Coast. She patiently took us on a number of tours of the area, sharing her extensive knowledge and insight about the various towns and neighborhoods. And as anyone who knows Elizabeth will attest, her deep knowledge is about more than just real estate, but everything one would need to know coming into a new community. She then guided us to the most amazing rental home. Elizabeth then took the time with us over the course of two years to really understand what exactly we would want in our own home and neighborhood. She patiently took us on many, many, many home tours and really honed in on what we wanted. And when the perfect home was coming onto the market, she had us in to see the home before it was officially released. With her guidance, expertise and extensive partnership with other brokers, we had an offer accepted within 24 hrs of seeing the house and we could not be happier. The closing was seamless…we now pinch ourselves everyday since we get to wake up in our dream home. Thank you Elizabeth!
How lucky am I that you two ended up in my world? I guess we have to give Russell some thanks for his help with your letter of interest :) Thank you so much for the trust you've placed in me, and for being an unbelievably helpful guest at the holidays — you saved this vegetarian from roast duty! I am so glad the San Diego weather won you two over from New York City. Sending my love to the three of you, and especially to Candice, whom everyone thinks is my long-lost sister. The biggest compliment of all!
Fantastic experience: Elizabeth Reed was instrumental in purchasing our family’s dream home. Her expertise, professional prowess and fantastic sense of humor guided us smoothly through a complex negotiation with a challenging seller. Her recommendations and referrals have been like our own insider’s guide to our new town… and her holiday nut brittle is legendary! We’ve recommended her to several friends and coworkers who have moved nearby and they adore her, both personally and professionally, as much as we do!
I will never forget how the Pechulis family came into my world — I think of you as one of the last (and best) gifts I received from my late best friend, Wayno. I know that we will be friends forever and you can count on a little extra toffee every December :).
Fantastic experience: We relocated from another part of the state and Elizabeth helped us through the entire process of purchasing our new forever home in San Diego. I loved working with her! She was very professional, honest and responsive. We also really valued her opinion and expertise. We definitely recommend her to anyone looking for an agent in San Diego.
It is rare to have a client as efficient and decisive as you two. Can you believe we got the job done over FaceTime, with you flying down afterward to seal the deal? I'm so happy to have found a house for you and Baby Celine and look forward to a sushi date soon.
Fantastic experience: Elizabeth is a fantastic real estate agent and, more importantly, a remarkable, understanding and caring person. When we began our search for a new home we weren’t sure exactly what we wanted or where we wanted to live. Luckily, we met Elizabeth early on. She took time to understand who we were and what we needed. She didn’t anticipate that it would actually take us more than three years to find the right place. But she guided us all the way, reminding us that “it’s a process.” When we finally found our new home she saw to every detail of the purchase, and then patiently guided us through the process of selling of our old home. Although we moved four years ago, Elizabeth has remained a true friend upon whom we can always rely. Thank you Elizabeth for everything, we are eternally grateful for your professionalism and support.
Peter and Shelly, I often forget that I ever was your Realtor — who could have imagined the beautiful friendship that would grow from it? I feel so lucky to be part of your San Diego family and that you have become part of mine as well. I can't wait until the next Christmas dinner and the next time I get to see my favorite cat in the world :) !!!
Fantastic experience: Anyone can find a house; Elizabeth found our HOME. In 2018, we moved down to Cardiff from the Bay Area. From day one, Elizabeth listened to our needs, and spent more time asking & learning about what was important to us. When we flew down to look for a house, Elizabeth knew exactly where to look and what to show us. No time wasted in areas we weren't interested. She is an expert in Del Mar, Solana Beach, Cardiff By The Sea, Leucadia, Encinitas, and the entire North County. We found that Real Estate is her passion, equally so in helping her clients. She went above and beyond...found our contractor, and even helped with appointments while we were in transition. She is now a friend, and we are forever grateful she found our Home. We wouldn't trust our real estate needs with anyone else. Its the biggest decision / purchase people make, so why settle for less than the Best!
I'm genuinely honored to have played a tiny part in your evolution. Who would have known when I helped you design and build the man cave in your beautiful Cardiff home, that I'd be at your wedding a few years later :). After meeting your beautiful bride and your sweet parents, all I can say is “friends for life."
Fantastic experience: I have know Elizabeth for over 20 years and have had numerous real estate transactions with her. She is extremely knowledgeable, hard working, and takes GOOD care of her clients! She is truly one of the best in the business. I highly recommend Elizabeth to anyone wishing to buy or sell a property!
Best friends for life, JB! I will always appreciate your loyalty and friendship, and working together is just the icing on the cake.
Fantastic experience: I’ve worked with Elizabeth on several transactions representing me both as a buyer and seller. She has an incredible work ethic and gives so much of herself to her clients. Elizabeth knows how to negotiate to get the deal done without over spending or leaving money on the table. Her knowledge of the greater San Diego real estate market as well as specific neighborhoods and even streets is impressive. This insight was advantageous when I was zeroing in on the perfect neighborhoods to invest in as well as to raise my family. Elizabeth is truly a class act, personable, and professional.
Thank you so much, Steve — for the sweet review, for the endless laughs, and for always keeping me on my toes! Together, we've learned how important it is to stay flexible, using so many different areas and approaches to get the job done. I love working with you and Crysti, and look forward to our next deal together.
Fantastic experience: Elizabeth is absolutely amazing. As a first time home buyer I had little knowledge about buying a house and Elizabeth made the entire process seamless. I had complete confidence in Elizabeth’s recommendations and she was able to answer any question I had. It was so great to work with someone who has such a vast knowledge of San Diego real estate. I will work with her again in the future and have, and will continue to, recommend her to anyone I know looking to buy a home.
I appreciate you and Kevin so very much. I have also loved watching your lives meld together over the years. Thank you for sending me so many great referrals - I have enjoyed spending time with your friends and family :).
Fantastic experience: I enjoyed working with a trusted agent, Elizabeth, lending support and advice in the heart of Covid. She went beyond what was expected of a realtor to sell my property. Her commitment was reflected in her attention to the details. She is knowledgeable, accessible and is a good communicator. Elizabeth was invaluable to the selling of my property.
Thank you so much for being patient and thoughtful throughout a very difficult transaction. I am certain we will be friends forever after that experience :). All my very best to you both up North.
Fantastic experience: What can I say about Elizabeth, other than she is amazing! Elizabeth was referred to us through a mutual friend. From the moment we got in contact with Elizabeth, we knew it would be a perfect fit. Elizabeth consistently reassured us that we would be able to find a place that was to our liking. As first time home-buyers, she made sure that our questions were answered and talked us through every step of the way. It was a tough closing, but Elizabeth was so consistent with our seller and so positive during our entire closing process. She still contacts us every now and then to check in on us and answer more questions that we have. We have recommended Elizabeth to our family and friends, and told them that if they are ever thinking of buying a house in the San Diego area, they really need to go with Elizabeth as she will make sure that all of the details go off without a hitch!
You and Greg were so much fun to work with. I will always feel supremely lucky to have been a tiny part of your amazing day. Thank you for your patience and humor as we navigated one of the most difficult escrows I have dealt with in a very long time. I wish you both a lifetime of happiness!!!
Fantastic experience: Elizabeth goes above and beyond for her clients and ensured a great outcome every time we worked with her and her team. She sold 2 homes and was an Agent on the Buy side of one of our homes as well. We highly recommend her and her team!
You, Kelly and the rest of your amazing crew (four legged friends included) will forever have a big spot in my heart. Your transition from coast to city to ranch to mountains has been awesome to watch. I know that you will thrive in Colorado but you are all missed terribly back here in San Diego.
Fantastic experience: A work colleague referred me to Elizabeth Reed to assist me in purchasing a home. From our first meeting I knew that this was a good fit. Elizabeth was willing to show me any property I was interested in and also found others that were suitable for me. She was able to point out advantages or disadvantages. It was equally important to Elizabeth that I found the right property that fit my needs. We put in many offers. Elizabeth did not let me get discouraged. After successfully purchasing a property Elizabeth did not give up on me. From helping me choose a paint color for the walls, suggestions for furniture and most importantly helped me navigate hurdles with my home warranty claim. I know that Elizabeth will continue to be available in the future. I highly recommend Elizabeth Reed and will use her services for my next real estate transaction.
Carolyn working together with you to find you a home was a pleasure. Your positive attitude was constant throughout the process and served us well. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your home buying experience.
Fantastic experience: We’ve known Elizabeth for over 14 years now. She has bought and sold six homes and counting with us. Her knowledge of the market, resources, attention to detail, work ethic and flawless execution of documents and contracts are just some of the numerous reasons we value our long term relationship with Elizabeth. Elizabeth provides an exceptional level of boutique customer service so whether you are buying or selling, she makes it all very easy as she handles and anticipates everything! She is always mindful about protecting our investment and never hesitant to call out issues that we might otherwise miss. Her connections are broad and deep and she is highly regarded by her peers in the industry. To anyone who is considering buying or selling their home in San Diego, we emphatically recommend Elizabeth. She is the best!
Kim, my friend, thank you so much for trusting me as your Realtor. You two have kept me sharp with the diverse properties we've worked on together, getting things done even under unusual circumstances. I love your kids, love your parties, and love you both! Please keep bringing the challenges and the laughs :).
Fantastic experience: Elizabeth Reed has helped us buy two fantastic properties - a condo in Carlsbad (helped sell that one, too) and our current home in Del Mar. There are not enough words to commend her patience, her expertise in the San Diego marketplace, her attention to details, her fair-mindedness and negotiation skills…all of it! She is a gem among gems in managing a very stressful process - especially in a competitive buy/sell market. She deserves 10 stars!
Thank you so much. It has been my pleasure working with you two and watching your hard work and dedication reward you - congratulations!!! I appreciate all the referrals you have sent my way more than you know. So excited to have you in the hood :).
Fantastic experience: Elizabeth has helped us buy/sell three (3) homes, and was able to get us top dollar. Her knowledge of the market is phenomenal as are the services she and her staff provide. Elizabeth has an enviable work ethic: She is on it until the task has been completed. Do not hesitate for a moment to engage her for your real estate needs. I know we won't. Martin Schacht
Thank you for making my job as a Realtor fun :) and for the friendship that has lasted decades. I appreciate you both so very much .
Fantastic experience: As a first home buyer, I really had no clue the extent of what I was getting into. Elizabeth was absolutely stellar in helping guide me through the entire process from loans, inspections, resources etc. I never felt like I was lost or not in the know of what was going on. Elizabeth also has a network of individuals at her disposal that will take the burden off your shoulders and answer questions as they come up through the paper process. I would 10/10 recommend Elizabeth for first time home buyers and will definitely leverage her again when I decide to bu another home down the road.
Jeffrey, the pleasure was all mine. Your responsiveness and dedication to the process made my part easy. This may have been your first home purchase but I know that it is far from your last. THANK YOU!!!
Fantastic experience: She made our dream come true! Elizabeth was our relocation specialist and found us the perfect home in San Diego. As first time home buyers we weren't sure what to expect, let alone during the 2021 market! Elizabeth's calm and confident personality reassured us we were in good hands. She is incredibly knowledgeable and experienced, and was a great sounding board for making such a big decision. Her main goal was for us to be happy with our new home, not just making a quick sale, and she worked tirelessly with our lender to ensure closing went smoothly. I highly recommend hiring Elizabeth to find your next dream home!
Thank you, Brian... Working with you and Lisa was such a pleasure. You are truly one of the kindest clients I have ever assisted with their home buying adventure. Please give an extra hug to your special little bundle who apparently helped us seal the deal :). Do not hesitate to reach out if you need ANYTHING!
Fantastic experience: Elizabeth Reed was the realtor who made our relocation from the East Coast to California happen. From the first area visit, to finding a short term rental, to securing our new home, Elizabeth was the calm and knowledgeable professional at every turn. We are an experienced relocation family with several real estate markets under our belt, but none as competitive as San Diego. Elizabeth and her team worked so hard on our behalf, and we tell everyone that the home we love is ours today due to her. We give her the highest recommendation!
Thank you both for the kind words … I appreciate you both both very much .
Fantastic experience: Elizabeth Reed is an excellent realtor. She is extremely knowledgeable, responsive, kind, and responsible. She respects her clients and goes out of her way to help them succeed. Her perseverance is exemplary! She is honest and hard-working. You will always want to have her in your corner.
It was a lucky day for me when you reached out about that listing I had in Carmel Valley. Your patience, persistence and humor served us all well…17 or 18 offers later, we finally got the job done :). You and your boys have a special place in my heart. Thank you !
Fantastic experience: We have known Elizabeth for over 25 years and have done numerous real estate transactions with her during that time. She is a master at putting deals together - the tougher the better. She has always put our interests first, and our trust in her has been rewarded repeatedly. She knows the San Diego market inside and out, is very well connected, and is incredibly responsive. We will continue referring friends and family to her, and look forward to continuing our wonderful relationship for many years to come.
Friends for a lifetime ... who knew that my job as a Realtor would bring me that?!? Your loyalty as well as your humor has been a constant for me for at least a quarter of a century. Thank you both so very much. BTW, you still have the award for lowest hourly rate but we don't need to talk about that :).
