    Amazing! In every way! She showed us multiple houses during a difficult time (COVID-19). She sent us countless more houses to assess online, taking into account our preferences and needs. She knows the cities and neighborhoods well enough to make terrific recommendations as well. She represented us well when we bought a new house in Orange and when we sold our old house in Stanton. She listed our house at the perfect price, allowing bids to be competitive. We followed her advice every step of the way and she never dissapointed us. If and when the time comes again to buy or sell a house, she is who we will turn to. She is truly that good!

    I had a wonderful experience working with Team Kociela. I am a first time home buyer so I had no idea what was going to happen along the path to ownership. They made it very straightforward and helped answer all of my questions. I would highly recommend working with Team Kociela :D

    I used Team Kociela to sell my Tustin home a few years ago. The team was competent, hard-working, and knowledgeable = just the right mix for a great repeal estate team!

    As first time homebuyers, we knew that the process of finding and buying a home was going to be daunting. We had no idea that we'd find a place that we'd love so quickly or that we'd come close to losing on our bid if not for Erin Kociela's sage advice. She patiently carried us through the entire process, doling out advice from her years of experience along the way, and ultimately guiding us all the way through to close on our new home. We're so grateful for all of Erin's support and assistance, and we look forward to calling Erin when we're ready to move into our next home.
