Bought a single family home in San Diego



I met Jay Becker 10 Years ago while in my 20's looking for a piece of property in San Diego. I had just moved from Chicago and my budget was at the very low end! I was having trouble finding an agent who took me seriously. I went through two before him. My Bank actually gave me Jay's card. Our first phone conversation was all I needed to trust him. He was willing to take the TIME and EFFORT. Something I was not finding other agents. He is very down to earth and actually drove me to the airport after viewing a property. He sold me my first condo in 2011. Fast forward to 2021. We just closed on our dream home. We had another agent we were working with due to knowing the specific neighborhood we wanted to be in. She was terrible and I could hardly get through one offer with her before I knew I needed Jay. The next home we saw pop up we immediately called Jay and we're able to seal the deal in a day. In today's competitive market he made it happen for us. I knew he would! He never has let me down and now we will use him to sell our current house once we move. We will use Jay as long as he's still working! Please don't ever retire Jay! ??

I recently tackled house-hunting in the highly competitive San Diego real estate market with agent Jay Becker. He was outstanding in so many ways, and helped me land a beautiful house in the La Jolla/PB area, beating out many interested buyers, and ultimately netting a sizeable buyer’s credit. He is a star quarterback to have on your team. Jay brings to the game, the experience and wisdom of 30+ years in the San Diego real estate market, a winning and easy-going personality with none of the arrogance often found in the profession, incredible patience, constant availability to the client, a seeming super-human abundance of energy, and skillful guidance in the tricky plays required to win in the San Diego market.

Bought a Single Family Home in Encinitas


Jay Becker represented us in purchasing a house in Encinitas (in the 5 mil Range), preceded by an enjoyable search of the areas from San Diego to Carlsbad. We were so impressed by his deep knowledge of the area, his ability to discern our needs and recommend properties, and to interface with the other agents representing other properties. Jay was always prompt, going the extra mile for so many situations, responsive at all hours, and very organized. He was exceptionally good at maneuvering through the complicated situations we came up against, and really went to bat for us in several situations. He was so persistent at getting us into properties we were interested in. Plus, he is absolutely the kindest, nicest, pleasantest person to be around. We always felt he had our best interests at heart, and he was always open to our questions, concerns and worries. Finding a new house was a fun process thanks to Jay. We appreciated that he has impeccable integrity, deep experience, and good taste to boot. We can highly recommend him as a real estate agent!

Sold a Home in Solana Beach in 2020




I met Jay Becker through a long time friend who had listed and sold her home with him. She had raved about how professional he had been and how happy she was with the outcome of the sale. So Jay is who I called when I needed to sell my home of 23 years. And I am so glad I did! Jay and his associate Daren advertised in many places; print, digital and even television in order to sell my house. They were always available to me and kept me up to date on any and all efforts to sell the property for the highest possible amount. I so appreciated their professionalism, and positive energy at a time that was extremely stressful. Thank you to both of you!

Bought a single family home in Rancho Santa Fe in 2020


My husband and I had been low-key searching the housing market in SD for a majority of 2020…and mostly just feeling sad about it all because everything seemed to cost an arm and both legs. At the recommendation of friends, we began working with Jay Becker. Jay helped my husband and I secure our dream home in Rancho Santa Fe just before the holidays, which is nothing short of a miracle considering the boom in the San Diego market and COVID. From the start, Jay really came through for us - constantly arranging showings, (a process made more challenging because of the pandemic) and communicating with listing agents on our behalf. When we were in escrow, Jay helped everything go smoothly and always had our back; Jay thoroughly reviewed our inspection reports, helped us negotiate for credit where it was due, and guided us through every situation. Besides Jay’s sharp professionalism and attention to detail, he brought personality, humor and levity to every single day, something that my husband and I appreciated so much. Shortly after moving in, Jay and his wife arrived at our door with a lovely housewarming basket. It feels amazing to spend the holidays in our new home, we absolutely love our new space and are so grateful to be where we ended up.

Bought a single family home in San Diego in 2020



I can confidently say that Jay Becker and his team are the best Agents in San Diego by a long shot. I worked with Jay on my first home purchase in 2013 and again just recently when we bought our 2nd home in San Diego. In 2013 we purchased a townhome in Crown Point San Diego that Jay said was a very wise investment and that turned out to be true as property value has increased 30% since we purchased. I knew absolutely nothing about buying a property but Jay makes it easy and will educate you along the way. Just recently Jay guided us through our 2nd home purchase in the "Burbs" Of Rancho Penasquitos ... He played an instrumental role in helping my wife and I come out on top and a very sought after home that had over 10 competing offers on it. The thing that stands out with Jay right away is his experience level. Jay knows the entire San Diego Market like the back of his hand. He may tell you he specializes in coastal properties but we wanted to buy a home in Rancho Penasquitos and Jay came through all the same. He brought us properties that hadn't even hit the market yet so that we could better understand the bang for your buck in "PQ"... but he has been through every possible scenario that can come up in a home purchase or sale and he handles them all with grace and Class. Jay will never make a decision for you but he will give you all the info you need and help you understand how to make the best decision for what you want. Zero pressure . I came to Jay 3 other times over the last 5 years when we were thinking of making another purchase and each time we decided at the last stage to back out because for whatever reason the timing wasn't right. I never got the impression that Jay was annoyed or bothered when we kept backing out , he was always understanding and because of that I stayed in touch. Don't mess around with an inexperienced Agent. Buying or selling a home is too important to put the outcome in someone else hands that doesn't know what they are doing. Call Jay Becker and set up a meeting. I can assure you that when you meet Jay and you do some research on him and his firm you will be confident he is the right Agent for you. 10/10 , 5 Stars, A+ agent ... you won't regret it!

Sold a Single Family home in La Jolla, La Jolla, CA.

We met Jay Becker at the Sotheby's office on Prospect St in La Jolla, California. His personal magnetism and professionalism prompted us to invite him to our home for an interview. He arrived fully prepared with area comps and a wealth of research he had done on market values. He spoke with us for about three hours explaining everything we needed to know about selling our home in La Jolla. As our agent, Jay worked tirelessly in putting together a high end package for the sale of our home including marketing, advertising, a superbly done and dynamic video of our home and suggestions for staging our home to be more suitable to a wide range of buyers. He was very selective in choosing those buyers that would be capable of purchasing a home in our price range. Upon finding a potential buyer, Jay really went to work. His negotiating skills are of the highest caliber and he was able to bring us an all cash offer with a twenty day close. It seemed miraculous to us and yet I understood the skill and work Jay had put into our home was paying off. Jay Becker can only be described as a top professional in his field. He is personable, easy to get along with and listened to all our questions and needs. After the close of escrow, he continued to help us and the buyer create a seamless transition that was beneficial to both parties. I would rank him the number 1 agent in La Jolla, California.

Jay sold my $7.5m oceanfront home in La Jolla and literally found the 'needle- in-the-hay-stack' cash buyer through his smart and targeted marketing backed by top notch Sotheby's International Realty. He is an excellent communicator and negotiator and stays the course through thick and thin until a property is sold, while never losing focus on his #1 goal: to make his client happy. Definitely my agent of choice for any future transaction (buy or sell) and he should be yours too

My husband and I retained Jay after one of my clients (who has utilized him on multiple transactions) recommended him. One of the primary reasons we wanted to work with Jay was his decades of experience in the industry. My husband and I are not at all experienced in home buying and older homes in general, and Jay was incredibly knowledgeable and provided us a lot of guidance on how to navigate the entire transaction. We were also attracted to Jay because of his reputation for being a stellar negotiator and he did not disappoint in that aspect either. Because we ultimately ended up pursuing a house that was a trust sale, we were informed from the onset that they were not willing to negotiate or repair anything. However, with Jay's artful negotiations, we ended up receiving a credit of 5% of our home purchase price or more than $45,000. I would not hesitate to work with Jay again and would recommend him to anyone who is need of a spectacular real estate

When we were considering buying a home, my wife and I had an assessment of fair value on a property and we considered purchasing direct from seller pre-market to get the best price. After further consideration, we had heard positive feedback from a few well trusted sources regarding Jay Becker and sought out his advice are very glad we did. Jay proved himself a capable negotiator and was able to get our offer (which was well below the seller's asking price) accepted. He was more than thorough, and walked us through each step of the due diligence and sales process while providing sound advice throughout and even after the close! I would highly recommend Jay to my friends and business associatesMore

Jay knows the San Diego's neighborhoods and helped us find the right vibe for us. He showed us several suitable homes for our needs and helped us find the perfect spot. He was very thorough and responsive during the whole process. I always felt confident with Jay and knew we were in good hands. He helped us negotiate a good price and got a great house. He followed through on every step including even going to City Hall to verify the builder's plans were filed correctly. Highly recommend!! Jay is awesome! Would use again anytime

I honestly never take the time to do reviews, but the professionalism, responsiveness, work effort, and expert guidance Jay Becker gave my wife and I was absolutely outstanding. This was our second home, so we knew about the process and generally what to expect, but Jay made the search, the bidding, and closing the transaction so seamless. Any hiccup (not by Jay, but from the seller, seller's agent, title company, etc.) was immediately addressed and a solution was provided. I can't say enough great things about Jay. We are now very happy owners of a beautiful home in the San Elijo Hills area. Thank you Jay - we look forward to working with you in the future!

Jay is fantastic! He’s thorough, knowledgeable, detail oriented, trustworthy, hardworking and truly passionate about his career. His negotiating skills are on point, You will know it when you work with him. As a first time home buyer I was scared to trust any realtor but my wonderful coworker stepped in and introduced me to Jay! After that, the amazing services he has delivered is exceptional. If I am buying a second home, I will only work with Jay. He is solid gold. Also I don’t take my time to write reviews so...

I very *rarely* endorse anything or anyone. However, I was compelled to make an exception for Jay Becker of Sotheby's. From the introduction phase Jay was very personable, non-pushy, had a not-a-salesman attitude, and he was very knowledgeable. I was impressed both with his patience and being readily available almost 24x7. I truly liked his professionalism and representation of us when we finally "won" out on a multiple-bid property. If you're looking for a realtor and are in the San Diego area, you would be crazy not to use Jay!

I searched for recommendations for a realtor to help me find a condominium in San Diego. I was living in Florida and wanted to deal with someone that would take an active search role for my new home. Jay Becker came highly recommended and I found out that he is one of the best. He was able to complete the purchase for me while I stayed in Florida. His communications were always timely and informative. His sage advice has allowed me to find an excellent new home.

Feel so lucky and fortunate to have found Jay. Was not sure if he'll deliver or meet my expectation at the beginning as I never had good experience from previous brokers. One day one, I asked him on if he'll be there with me from beginning to the end or will he pass on the work to the other associates in office. He promised me that he'll be the one who handles it. Not only did Jay kept his promise, he went above & beyond his professional parameter numerous times just to make sure the transaction stays at its course and time. Jay kept me posted on every little detail & even makes follows up after close of escrow. I definitely will recommend Jay to all my family and friends. Thank you, Jay for an amazing experience.

Jay represented us when we sold a La Jolla condo. There had been legal problems that stalled sales in the building in recent years, so it was a challenge. He went way above and beyond in prepping it for sale. We never expected that but we are grateful that he was able to highlight all the best points of the property. He also deployed the full array of marketing tools in his toolkit, generating tremendous interest when the condo hit the market. The offer that we accepted came in the first few days and the escrow was both speedy and smooth. We are very pleased with the outcome. Jay represented us in the past as buyers, too. Now we know he's great in both buying and selling. More

This was the second time that we worked with Jay Becker. The first time, he was our buying agent and although we were under a tight timeline to buy a house, Jay patiently worked with us and always put our benefits first before his. He was very professional and delivered perfectly and we were able to purchase a beautiful house in Sorrento Valley. We happily lived in the house for 3 years and due to business reasons, we decided to move to Bay area and sell the house. Since it was later in the summer that we decided to list our house, the market was slowing down and it wasn't much time left to the end of summer and start of school as we had to make sure the house selling will not cause my son to miss the beginning of school or change of school at the middle of the year. So, we were not sure how the process will go and if we are able to make the moving happen on time, this time our timeline was even tighter. After bringing Jay up to speed, it was such a relief that he assured us that if one agent in town can deliver the best value sell under our time limit, will be him. And sure he did deliver again. During the the listing was official on MLS, through pre-listing marketing he was able to bring so much interest to our house and we received two very good offers of which the second was higher and better term and we accepted it before we were on MLS. He was able to get the most value out of the improvements we made in the house, despite of some negative comps in the area. He found the perfect buyer who appreciated how we have improved exterior and interior of the house, that's why he broke the neighborhood's record on selling price of houses similar to ours. Everything went smoothly during the contingency period and the house closed in almost 3 weeks. He was even able to negotiate a 2 week rent back from the buyers so we get enough time to pack and move. With lots of good memory from San Diego and our Sorrento Valley house, we are exploring Silicon Valley and enjoying our new place. Thanks to Jay, we were able to pull this move off successfully.

We met Jay at one of his listings when we were only casually looking. That house wasn't right but Jay's enthusiasm for the area turned us into serious buyers while his experience, knowledge and low-pressure style convinced us he was the right fit for our agent. Jay immediately confirmed our decision with his insightful assessment of the list of houses we had identified. He listened to and observed our reactions during showings to come up with additional properties. He even took notes on each property, so that he could help us remember things about the different houses. When we were a little stuck, Jay proactively searched out under construction properties and listings not yet on the market. Throughout the search process we found his advice invaluable and directed at finding a house to meet our needs foremost. He was very patient, never pressured us and was always responsive. Once we found the right house, he went to work to make it ours. Jay advised us on the offer and then successfully negotiated to get it for less than what we would have paid. Jay was just as attentive after contract acceptance as he was during the search. There were some repairs needed that many sellers would not have done, but Jay got them to do everything we asked for. His negotiating style is not antagonistic at all, which preserved a good relationship with the seller. He kept in close contact during the process leading up to closing to ensure that nothing fell through the cracks. When we had a reluctant title officer, he called someone he knew to walk the property and make us feel completely comfortable. He continued to check on repair progress up to the final walk-through. Even after closing, Jay has continued to work for us, checking in to make sure everything is okay. We always felt that he put our needs first. His integrity, thoroughness, work ethic and experience make it easy for us to recommend him to anyone looking for a new home. Next time we move, hiring Jay Becker as our agent will be the first step!

I had the pleasure to meet Jay Becker as soon as I moved from Sao Paulo, Brazil to San Diego. My husband and I didn’t know any brokers in the city and we needed a broker to rent a place. Luckily our paths crossed Jay Becker’s path and since then we rented a condo in La Jolla, we bought a condo in Pacific Beach, we later sold this condo and we bought a house in La Jolla, all with Jay’s Impeccable guidance. All those transactions were very successful because Jay Becker kept an eye on the market and even got us into homes before they hit the market. Having an agent that we trust made the process stress free and enjoyable. Jay Becker was above our expectations every step of the way on both sides, the buy side and listing side of the business, our sale achieved top market price re-setting the neighborhood comps and he found us our dream house in La Jolla and we couldn’t be happier. We truly recommend Jay if you are looking for an outstanding broker. He is an expert and a perfectionist on everything he touches. He won’t be satisfied if you are not satisfied.

.Our extended family has used Jay Becker in 6 home transactions---each one with superlative service and results. Jay is the finest real estate broker I have ever met and I have been in law practice for 44 years. He is creative, prepared, and gets along well with other brokers and real estate personnel. He would never sacrifice our satisfaction for a quick commission. We trust him with our most important decisions and he has never let us down.

 We had recently bought a house thru Jay Becker. Ours was one of the tough Escrows as the seller party was least cooperative and had extremely difficult selling agent. Here is where Jay's vast experience in handling differrent kinds of Transaction came into play. Jay handled this extremely difficult selling agent in whatever best possible way he could. In many cases he went above and beyond that buyer's i.e. mine interests are taken care of.... Our was competitive situation where we came across multiple offers. Jay's wisdom in tackling a tough Seller Agent along with thought process in terms of how to win a multiple offer situation proved to be boon for us. It was due to Jay's sharp mind and situation awareness that we were able to have our offer selected amongst multiple offers In our situation Seller wished to continue staying in the house for a month or so after close of Escrow. Jay made sure that proper Move-in/ Move-out form was filled up making sure SELLER continues to take care of the house in best possible even while he was renting. Since, I have been first time home buyer, I had tons of questions and confusions. Jay was always extremely patient with me and like a great mentor kept guiding me across thru the entire process. Many a times, he called me at night just in case he was busy during day and patienty explained me what our next steps should be in the process. Just to conclude will say that Jay is great Realtor and proves every penny's worth during Home Buying or Selling process. He is all about taking care his client's interest and leaves no stone unturned to make sure the Clients rights and interests are full protected and makes every effort to get the Transaction/Escrow process close smoothly and in his client's favor. I strongly recommend Jay Becker for Realty Needs. Without any doubt, would chose Jay again in future if needed. Regards, Rishi

Jay was a delight to work with in the search for our new home here in San Diego. He provided us with a number of properties that met our needs and gave us, as newcomers to the area, considerable insight into where we should be looking and the type of property. His knowledge of local property and areas appears to have no bounds, and he is the best negotiator that we have ever met with; the result a great house at a great price. In addition he gave us a complete understanding of the purchase process here in the USA and especially in California, and he actually made the whole buying experience enjoyable. We would have no hesitation in recommending Jay for the dedicated service and assistance that he gives and not least for his tenacious approach to negotiating for his clients

For exceptional service and attention, Jay is the "go to" person in real estate. From the moment that we first contacted Jay on the telephone from the UK when moving to California was a dream, through our first meeting having arrived to our eventual purchase, Jay has worked tirelessly to find us the home that matched our criteria, and thanks to his excellent negotiating skills at a price that we would not have thought possible. Jay has been with us every step of the way in both advising us on California property purchase and of California life. For anybody seeking that "A1" personal service with attention to your every needs we would recommend Jay without any hesitation.

He really worked with us to make our experience as stress-free as possible and showed a depth of caring for us as a family that really helped us make the right choices. We ended up not selling our home for personal reasons but when we decide to sell again he will be the first person we call.

He's motivated and exceeded my expectations. You want this guy on your side of the transaction because he's a master negotiator. He negotiated a great deal for me and I got my house much below the market price. Highly recommended

Wow, what can we say about Jay... Jay served as our real estate agent when we bought our first home and when we sold our first home. He negotiated the price both times in order to get us the best deal possible - allowing us to buy under the asking price and sell highly over the asking price. Business aside, Jay is a great person. He is so kind and honest, and he was upfront with us from the start. He kept us up-to-date on the progress of each step, and he was always available for our questions. Jay and his team were extremely professional, and they went above and beyond for us. We would highly recommend Jay for all your real estate needs in the San Diego area.

Jay is the best agent you could ever imagine. He is way different than the agents I have seen so far.

He is professional, responsive, knowledgeable, respectful, and more above all he is not pushy at all. He listens to your requirements, and throughout the process makes sure they are his priorities versus other agents who try to form their recommendations and support around the commission numbers.

His connections around the industry will help you get the job done. During our house hunting process, we first put an offer and went to Escrow on a house located in La Jolla. But, after investigating we figured the house had some foundation problems which might not be an issue for some, but it was for us. So, we decided to cancel. Although he lost significant amount of commission which he deserved for such hard work, he never showed any attitude and never gave up till the last moment and always acted classy and

Then, he showed us some more houses and this time we found our beautiful family house in Sorrento Valley and bought it. Very happy and excited to move in to this house in couple of days. We could not do it without Jay.

I would recommend Jay to anybody who is looking for a property in San Diego. He is the BEST

San Diego is experiencing a sellers' market. Some properties are receiving 10-15 offers over night, which was the case while we were searching. Jay was our buying agent and made sure our offer got accepted. He has a great personality and works hard. In this market you need an agent to help your offer stand out. Sellers often choose who they want to sell to based on your agent and how easy they are to work with. Jay Becker is an asset to have on your side. Highly recommended.

As a first time home buyer I should say that the process can be nerve racking and sometime make us feel lost. Jay did an amazing job explaining me every step to make sure my interests were protected. He was always available and returned all my calls and texts really quickly. Jay also contacted me every time there was a new update to make sure we were on the same page. I felt that I was really connected with him which made the process a lot easier for me. We closed in a shorter time than I was expecting and I can say that I am now a happy homeowner. I will recommend his service to anyone looking for a real estate agent. Buying a house is something huge in a lifetime and I can say that Jay is the guy. His experience definitely makes a difference.

Jay has been our agent now for over 2yrs and over that time has worked tirelessly on securing the best properties for us as a family. On hand, at times 24hrs a day!!! We cannot speak highly enough or recommend him more strongly. He has negotiated and talked us through the rental and buying process, scheduled appointments at a moments notice, accompanied us on countless viewings, always prepared to go that extra mile. On our eventual purchase Jay really stepped up to the mark, ensuring that we not only got the best price but that every detail in the contract had been meticulously studied and confirmed, ensuring that there were no hidden surprises on completion. Thanks again for spending the time to really understand, what we as your clients required from a home. Tony, Johanna and family

Jay Becker with Lux-Re-Homes has been nothing but an absolute professional with us throughout our entire journey of purchasing a house.

No matter your price range, he has experience through all income levels. A hard worker that is 100% committed to his client. I would refer him anyone in the future without question.

Jay Becker at LUXREHOMES was referred to us by a good friend because we were tired of dealing with other agents that weren't qualified enough or were too aggressive and pushy. My friend highly recommended Jay and boy he was right!

With Jay's immense knowledge and tact, we were able to successfully secure an offer on a short sale property that had 6 other offers. Jay was also instrumental in dealing directly with the short-sale co-ordinator to speed the process up and close faster. As a result, we were able to close this short-sale property within 6-8 weeks of making the original offer.

Throughout the process, Jay was always polite, friendly, attentive to every single detail and made the home purchase process a breeze which is a welcome change for first time home-owners like us. He always educated us on each and every aspect of the home purchase process and was always available to address any questions/concerns that we had.

I don't think I would even look elsewhere when I want to buy/sell homes anymore. Jay will be the first person I will call. We're customers for life.

We are coming up on the one year anniversary of living in our new home, and are still talking to friends about the great results of working with Jay. A lot of folks can show you property, but in the end as a buyer you need an agent who is going to help you actually acquire property. Aside from being a stellar person - Jay was clear, direct, and informed. His negotiating abilities on our behalf were remarkable. His persistence and follow through with passive and resisting parties was the difference between getting our dream house or not. (That's a big difference!) If we have the opportunity to purchase another residence in the San Diego area, it will certainly be with Jay.

With Jay's help, we recently purchased a lovely single family home in North Pacific Beach. We purchased this home in a competitive environment and Jay navigated the process, relationships and negotiation with the utpost professionalism. We truly believe we would have lost this opportunity if we had any other realtor representing us. Jay is a master negotiator with expert ability to read a sales situation and negotiate terms that will satisfy all parties. We hope to use Jay as our realtor for many years to come and highly recommend him to others.

One clear advantage was preparedness. You responded quickly to my notification that this property just hit the market, and we were able to obtain seller acceptance the day the property hit the market. Patience, and diligence on your part allowed us to navigate through the trust sale efficiently and close 10 days early. You are ideal clients, and wonderful people. Lots of health and happiness in your new home. Jay

Jay recently helped me close on a house in North Pacific Beach. I could not be happier with his professional service, candid guidance and most importantly, his punctuality in returning calls and answering questions. Being a first time home buyer, Jay took the time to make sure I fully understood every aspect of the transaction. I feel confident that I made a great investment and would recommend his service to any family member or close friend. In fact, I already have! I keep in touch with Jay and he has become a great friend. Thanks again, Jay!

What could be a greater compliment than to have a client tell me that they want to transition to the Real Estate industry and work together? I enjoyed working with you and look forward to a long term relationship in the years that follow.

We were up against a few investors with cash and Jay was able to negotiate our offer to the top position which led to the purchase of our first home. Jay was very upfront about everything in the process and he will be the first we call in the future.

Jay and his team did a fantastic job of locating the oceanfront condo we were looking for. He spent lots of time with us educating us on the communities and also paying attention to our particular desires to help focus on the best choice for us. When we made our choice he negotiated through a very complicated bankruptcy & HOA lien situation saving us a six figure amount. His proactive work with our bank lender, the escrow company, and the HOA was the difference between closing and losing the deal altogether.

Mark and Sharon, Thank you for you nice review! We were well prepared for all the obstacles that we faced, and I commend you on your patience and support throughout. Having a banking background definitely helped in our negotiating on this bank owned property. We are glad that you are happy with your property, and we hope you continue to enjoy bluffside home and your panoramic ocean views. You were a delight to work with.

We found Jay through his very useful Web site and found him to be highly attentive to us throughout the search for an investment property, through the offer process and through the purchase. We don't reside in San Diego so we relied on him a lot. He is very knowledgeable about San Diego properties. He represented our interests very well and we would recommend him to others looking for a San Diego home or investment property.

MaryBeth and Dave, It was a pleasure. NASA (your employers) have put ME to the test and it was a successful mission. I appreciate the opportunity to work with consummate professionals that bring forward great insight. I hope you enjoy your property. Best Regards Jay
