ReviewWhenever family, friends or neighbors are needing to sell/buy a house, we immediately refer them to Destry and his team. He has pulled some real miracles in dealing with some of the sales of those homes! He is currently in the process of closing the sale of our home. What can be a stressful situation has been made much easier with his guidance and expertise. Destry is a top notch realtor and person in every way- extremely professional, very knowledgeable in all aspects of real estate, always responsive to calls and questions, confident demeanor and straightforward. Its been a pleasure working with him all these years and we continue to refer business to him as we know he will get the job done 100%. If you want the best of the best, we highly recommend Destry and his team.

Review My friend/co-worker said she knew the best realtor in the area and recommended Destry after hiring him 20 years ago as her buying agent.I wondered how she vividly remembered his services? Well, fast forward to last January when my husband and I listed and sold our house with Destry and I now totally understand where she was coming from. Here are the pros and cons:Pros:- Destry is "off the charts" unbelievable in every way possible!- He possesses a calm, friendly, reassuring, professional demeanor - not pushy nor a push-over. - His knowledge and experience came into play throughout the sale of our house, especially when a couple minor issues came up during escrow. Destry knew exactly what to do and immediately took action- He is easy to contact and immediately returns messages- Somehow he remains humble and approachable through his success- His assistant, Samantha and recommended professional photographer, contractor, roofer, are la crA?me of the crop - second to noneCons:- absolutely noneAs a side note, I attended a retirement party and found out three additional co-workers hired Destry as their buying and/or selling agent. We shared nothing but positive experiences! Thank you Destry :)

Review To Whom It May Concern,We have owned and leased our Redhawk Association, Temecula, California single family home since 2005. We decided to sell our home. Since we live in Downtown San Diego, we were in a bit off a quandary on identifying a Temecula-area real estate agent.My wife and I were recently introduced to Destry through a friend/associate of 15+ years.We are at the VERY early stages of selling our home, but the professionalism Destry has exhibited, has been 2nd to none. We feel that comfortable with him, that we do not even think it is necessary to meet with him face-to-face. My wife and I have been married for over 45 years and have owned properties in NY, DC, and California. This is the VERY 1st time that we have placed our total trust in a real estate agent, and we truly believe he will do a Fantastic job marketing and subsequently selling our home.Based on our limited knowledge and initial impressions, awe would be willing to recommend Destry without reservation.Most Sincerely,Dr. Reid Jilek

Review This is the second time we have used Destry for a buy and sell transaction. Although the normal issue occurred during the process, Destry was able to handle most of them without getting us involved. Which was a huge help as we were already dealing with so much. He knows exactly what needed to be done is every situation at occurred. He went above and beyond for us both times. I will never use any other agent again. I feel completely confident in all the decisions he made during the buying and selling process.

Review Destry Johnson was the best real estate agents we have ever worked with. He sold our home and helped us purchase a new home. He took care of every detail including helping us through the inspection process. It was the easier real estate experience we've ever gone through. We highly recommend his extensive experience and customer service.

Review Destry Johnson treats you with respect, dignity, and patience every step of the buying and selling process. You are more than just a transaction when you work with Destry. In our transaction, he was tremendously patient and flexible when one of the sellers became sick and worked with showing the house around the sellers schedule. He appropriately set an asking price for the house and scheduled events like termite tenting, and having repairs completed. He also worked closely with the estate seller as well.He was readily available always via phone or text message to assist and ensure the transaction closed on time. Destry is a true professional with a kind, good heart. I whole heartedly recommend his services without a spec of reservation.

Review Destry is very responsive, experienced, and knowledgeable in his field. He is also very familiar with the City of Temecula and surrounding cities and unincorporated areas. More importantly, Destry knows enough real estate law from his experience and if not 100% sure will seek guidance from his legal contact. This came in handy when looking at homes where the seller was representing themselves as the Agent or utilizing non-traditional realtors that charge flat fees or less percentage for commission. Destry is also very astute and helpful when walking through a home as he looks at other conditions you might not think of or overlook. Another advantage is Destry's large contact of service providers he personally knows and/or utilizes that come in handy when selling or buying a home. Highly recommend.

Review Destry was both our selling agent and buying agent for our homes in Temecula and Escondido a few months ago. Destry also sold our previous home in Temecula 19 years ago. It is stressful to be in two escrows at the same time but Destry kept us apprised and was always one step ahead of us on some very difficult decisions. He is an expert in real estate and exhumes a confident and positive demeanor throughout the selling and buying process. He is also very personable and fun which made the process so much easier. We highly recommend Destry - he is a natural at what he does. Totally unrelated but he has a huge heart for animals so that tells you everything about what kind of person he is. Cant say enough about working with him and would do it again in a heartbeat. Destry thank you for your expertise in selling our home and getting us into the home we fell in love with. We are super grateful and will recommend you to anyone looking for a true and knowledgeable professional that will work hard for you every minute of the day. Hang on and enjoy the ride - its going to be a fast one!

Review We are so happy to have had Destry handle the purchase of our new home in Murrieta, California! Destry Johnson is a pleasure to work with and very friendly - he will find you the home you will love and you can count on him to carefully handle the negotiations and all aspects of buying your new home. His local knowledge of the area helped us to find a place in a super neighborhood we would have never known about.

Review Destry was our buying agent when we purchased our house in Temecula and we liked him so much that we hired him again when we were selling the same house. Since we were selling the house remotely, Destry helped us with everything including arranging house cleaning, landscaping and getting everything ready for showing. I was so amazed how smooth the entire process was thanks to his work.We also appreciate that he always puts client's benefit as a priority. e.g. Destry convinced us to wait when we were almost going to accept an offer that's lower than our expectation. And as he expected, a much better offer came in within a few days!

Review We came to Destry with a wish list, a budget and one complicated request- we needed an extended escrow. He jumped on it and helped us negotiate an offer well below list price on a house that met every one of our items on that wish list. This guy is a REAL ESTATE MIRACLE WORKER! We felt that he always had our best interests in mind and that we could absolutely trust his judgement and opinions. What more can you ask for? Plus, this guy is funny and thats something youre gonna need in the home buying process.

Review Destry is by far the BEST Agent in the valley. He is well respected among in his industry. I have been fortunate to have had the pleasure to work with him on 3 tranactions and they all could not have gone easier. Just tell him what you are looking for and he will find it. He is amazing and very professional to work with. If you want a professional who cuts through the BS he is your man! He also has a great group of vendors for all your needs and these people are outstanding I have had several repairs done to my home and the people he referred me to are top notch! Thanks Destry for making buying, selling, and buying a home so easy!

Review Destry Johnson is Five Stars PLUS! My late husband and I met Destry in the 90's when he listed and sold our first home for us. He found the perfect new home for us and after ten years sold that home for us.He also assisted us in buying acreage. Most recently he has gone above and beyond to help me sell the home that was built on that acreage that we purchased 22 years ago. He has found a relocation for me. Destry, does everything with ease and his client comes first. Destry is never to busy to answer the smallest question to the largest one. There aren't enough words to describe the service you receive when you make the call to Destry Johnson.

Review I can not say enough about our agent Destry Johnson at Berkshire Hathaway Home Services Ranch & Coast Real Estate.I know that's a mouth full however it's well worth the effort.Destry is hands down the best agent with a can do attitude.This agent actually listened to what both my wife and I wanted and delivered properties that were on point without wasting any of our time on homes that didn't meet our needs.Too often, agents act as though they hear you, yet roll you around town totally missing the mark. Not this agent/agency. No matter what the challenge, Destry erased such statements "Challenge" and steered them into victories almost effortlessly. Thank you, Destry for your Service "Marine"; and for your outstanding customer focus as our real-estate agent. You Rock!!

Review Destry was referred to me by a friend and I am so glad that happened. He was quick to respond from the get go and was clear that he understands the market from the low end to high. My property was for sure "entry level" type purchase and he didn't treat me any less than VIP. He was always available to answer questions and provide guidance. He has a very logical plan on how to sell the property and lived up to the expectation. He was honest and fair, which of course is critical in making a transaction like this.

Review Working with Destry Johnson in finding the best home for me was a breath of fresh air! He was low-key/low-pressure, interested in learning about ME in order to locate a property that matches my needs, knowledgeable, available and, during the negotiations, he had MY back. I felt complete trust and confidence while guided by Destry, as I was new to the area and very unfamiliar with the various neighborhoods. I knew, without a doubt, that he would look out for my best interest, and he did. Additionally, his follow-up is amazing. I would highly recommend anyone to contact Destry Johnson for their real estate needs.

Review Destry became my realtor by pure accident. I wasn't actually trying to contact him directly, but made a mistake online. Turned out to be the best mistake I could of made. We were serious buyers, but wanted to find a house before we picked our bank. Backwards thinking maybe but we were secure in our financial health. No one would take us to see houses without preapproval. Then the mistake and Destry called. He said, "sure let's go, what house/s do you wanna see? Don't know I can pick some out. What are you looking for?" We knew. He took us out to see the 3 houses. We picked one got preapproved quickly and 3 days later we were making an offer. Destry was non-pressure, relaxed and educated. Trusted us and what we wanted and worked with the sellers agent to fix what needed to get done. Simply the best of the crop I've come across. I would highly recommend him! Now a few months later we are getting comfortable in our new home. Because of the policies of the other agents they lost a sale. Destry backed us 110%. When your making your choice pick him and his agency. You won't regret it.

Review Destry did an excellent job handling the sale of our Mother's home. We had the extra challenge with this transaction since none of us lived in the area, but his team worked closely with us and made it much easier than I ever would have imagined. He was there to walk us through every step of the way with great advice and no question was ever a dumb question to ask him. He priced the home fairly and with his outstanding marketing resources the home sold quickly. Thanks Destry !

Review Destry made a believer of us when we gave him the listing for our first home in Riverside County and bang it was sold. The next home had a buyers lender that piled on delay after delay. Destry negotiated an incentive to get the buyer to complete the escrow or pay a growing fee for the delay. Destry helped us with our next purchase and when the sellers misrepresented the facts he was a big help in getting our settlement. On our most recent home sale, Destry was faced with an inexperienced buyer's agent, a no money down buyer with a small time clueless lender. He educated everyone and got our sale. This home was only on the market five days before we accepted the offer. You want Destry on your side.

Review This is the third home that Destry has helped me to buy. This time the process was complicated with an unrealistic wish list provided by my wife that severely limited the available properties that we could look at. Destry was sensitive to our unique needs and managed to show us properties as soon as they came on the market so that we were often times the first ones to view a property., Thanks for all of the excellent work and dealing with my wife lol
