ZillowVERIFIEDWe used Aumann realtors to sell our home in San Marcos. Their photography is exceptional. Their marketing is top-notch. Their motivation to make a deal is unparalleled. We sold our home at asking price during a challenging market and a tenuous escrow. Would definitely recommend.

ZillowVERIFIEDJoy & Rob Bender not only did an exceptional job as the listing agents for our new home, but also proved to be extremely professional, resourceful and critical to the process of us obtaining it. We fell in love with La Jolla and quickly learned that the real estate market is incredibly competitive. Being from out of town, we were very cautious who to trust with this large purchase. It was a tremendous fortune that Joy & Rob were on the selling side of the one we ended up choosing. Joy, who showed us the home, immediately impressed us with her professionalism & we were sold on the house within minutes. She also demonstrated a rare ability to serve her sellers interests and ours at the same time helping us craft our offer on the spot. Her problem solving & negotiating skills were swift and second to none. With a quick closing and several moving factors, Joy & Rob together designed a win/win arrangement and worked with our agent seamlessly. They both would answer questions within minutes (sometimes seconds) and made a potentially stressful situation smooth, pain free and actually pleasant. The execution of the entire process was precise, accurate and professional. Timing was critical and without Joy & Robs good work, we may not have acquired the house. During our closing it was obvious that the seller was also pleased. They are clearly as respected by their long term clients as they are by us. When it comes to Real Estate, where a lot of funds are at stake, timing is everything and the devil is in the details, we recommend Joy & Rob if you want to be in the best of hands. We are grateful they were there for us.

ZillowVERIFIEDMy husband and I contacted Joy and Rob when searching Trulia for our home value. They found a buyer for our Avanti Renaissance townhome immediately and we closed on time with no delay. We would recommend them for anyone looking for an agent to successsfully sell their home.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe contacted Joy after finding her on zillow to begin looking at townhomes in La Jolla for rental purposes. We arrived On Saturday and she helped us get more familiar with La Jolla as a community with many recommendations that we were grateful for. She also seemed very familiar with the inventory, prices, and rent amounts. My husband and I will be back in April and look forward to continuing our search.

ZillowVERIFIEDJoy worked with us on a cross-country move from Boston to San Diego. Joy helped educate us on the market and provide us with a variety of options to choose from (I.e. Urban vs suburban, inland vs costal, school divisions, local attractions, etc...). We felt very informed during the transaction and 2+ years later we are very happy with the decisions we made for our family. We highly recommend the use of Joy's services.

ZillowVERIFIEDJoy Bender is a hardworking and dedicated realtor and we strongly recommend her. We highly value her responsiveness and appreciated the number of hours she spent with us in person, and by phone and email, keeping us informed and updated throughout the process. She showed extraordinary professionalism and we could not have had better support. The personal attention and direction she provided over several months resulted in finding the perfect home for us.

ZillowVERIFIEDIt was a pleasure working with Joy Bnder. As a first time home buyer, I was very confused going about to get a home. During this whole process, I didnt feel like I was walking through this by myself, because she was always reachable. Either by phone or email, she seemed to get back to me really quick. Thank you for always being very patient with me. A friend asked me, aEURoeHow come your process of buying a home went so fast?aEUR? And I was proud to say aEURoeBecause I am working with a really good team.aEUR? I always hear how other people complain about their first time buying a home being so complicated and I got to say, thanks for not putting me in the same boat as everyone else. My first time buying a home experience was great! Thank you very much!

ZillowVERIFIEDI met Joy in her open house event looking for rental property. She was very knowledgeable about the current inventory available for sale and also recently closed homes. We spent the following day looking at property. I was impressed with how organized she was with her scheduling of showings and respectful of my close time schedule. As I continue to look for property and look to purchase by the end of the year I look forward to continue to work with Joy and Rob.

ZillowVERIFIEDI found Joy on zillow after researching many different agents. In real estate we say time is of the essence, and Joy Bender gets that. You dont get a second chance in this market, with multiple offers and homes coming on and off the market very quickly. Watching new inventory, previewing, and having an unprecedented response time was important to me in selecting an agent. As listings came on the market in addition to the automated feed on her website Joy would email me directly an pertinent listing with corresponding feedback that I found very helpful.

ZillowVERIFIEDJoy was great at helping me through getting the pre-approval process started all the way up to closing by being so detail oriented and organized. I will highly recommend Joy as a realtor to anyone who I run into. Joy, let me reassure you that I am so grateful becuase I have heard so many horror stories from other first time homebuyers and you were great! Everyone I have talked to cant believe how smooth you made the entire process of buying my first home for me. Thank you! Katie H.

ZillowVERIFIEDThank you very much for helping us with our first time purchase! From the first time I talked on the phone with you I knew I could count on your knowledge and professional advise to help us find a home that was best for us. Thank you Joy for not giving up on us when it seemed like we could not get the paperwork required to finalize the loan so we could finish. You stood by us until we had success.

ZillowVERIFIEDJoy was excellent during the entire process of selling my home. We were working with a severely condensed timeframe and she did everything humanly possible to make the process successful. Ultimately, we are getting the house we dreamed of and huge part of our success attributed to Joy and her team. My wife and I definitely suggest her service to anyone looking to buy or sell in San Diego.

ZillowVERIFIEDLast weekend we called Joy off of zillow and with only a days notice asked to see La Jolla townhomes. She said it would be difficult to get in because many of the sellers and tenants needed a 24 hour notice before a showing. We were just short of that window of time but Joy made it happen, and we got an educated feel for the market and what our budget under $1.5M could buy. Thank you for making our last minute househunt happen!

ZillowVERIFIEDI am more than happy to provide a testimonial for the service I received while searching for a home in La Jolla. I felt that Joy was very experienced and had a good understanding about the different beach areas in La Jolla. It's eye opening when you begin to closely examine different aspects of living in each area. I highly recommend Joy and her team and have already shared her contact info with others.

ZillowVERIFIEDI am very happy to provide a review for Joy and Rob. I contacted them through zillow seeking a condo for my daughter. We emailed and texted extensively prior to meeting the first time. They were very knowledgeable about both the Del Mar and Rancho Santa Fe condo market touring us through the Covenant of Rancho Santa Fe and the Del Mar Village. I recommend them for anyone who demands responsiveness and expertise in San Diego.

ZillowVERIFIEDI flew in to San Diego from Austrilia seeking investment properties for long term rentals. Joy and Rob picked me up at the airport. They first gave me a tour of Mission Beach, Mission Bay, Pacific Beach, and Birdrock area of La Jolla there suggested beach communities based on my budget for two bedroom condo units. Because I am looking for rental units I was very impressed with their knowledge of the buildings and which ones would allow for 30 days or less leasing. They also helped acquaint me with the local restaurants, shopping, and local destinations. Upon my departure they gifted me with Bird Rock Roasters coffee to take home. I look forward to resuming my search with them this winter on my next trip out.

ZillowVERIFIEDI contacted Joy online through Trulia as we were comparing ocean view homes in Del Mar and La Jolla to Monterey and Santa Barbara. She picked us up at our hotel and spent two days educating us about the area, country clubs, schools, and different pockets within each city. I regret that we did choose to purchase in Monterey but may purchase another property in La Jolla/Del Mar in two years and would definitely use Joy to purchase.

ZillowVERIFIEDJoy worked with my wife and I on a cross-country relocation from Boston to San Diego. Joy helped educate us on the market and provide us with a variety of options to consider (urban vs suburban, inland vs costal, school divisions, proximity to local attractions, etc...). We felt very informed during the transaction and at the time of writing (six months post closing) we feel we made the right decisions for our family. We highly recommend the use of Joy's services. Feel free to reach out to me directly with any questions you may have on our experience.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe had a great experience working with Joy to sell our home in San Elijo Hills. She made the process extremely easy and was very knowledgeable about the market. I would recommend Joy to anyone looking to buy or sell a house in the area. If we ever decide to move back to San Diego, I will be giving her a call.

ZillowVERIFIEDJoy was a wonderful Realestate agent. She was very knowledgable about the area. She knew what our price range was and was able to show us 9 places in that price range in a very short period of time, which was nice because we were on vacation. She seemed very honest in telling us what she thought about each condo based on her knowledge of the surrounding neighborhood and by what we were looking for in a condo. She was very helpful through the whole escrow process as well. I would highly recommend her. We have already recommended her to our friends.

ZillowVERIFIEDI was a first-time homebuyer and had many questions about the whole process abeit I had taken a home-buying class before. She answered all of my questions quickly and made everything understandable. I felt very comfortable working with Joy and team. They made sure that everything go as smoothly as possible and had MY best interest at heart. Awesome quality for any professional! Not to mention, she stayed at my housewarming party for most of it! Thats the kind of interpersonal relationship you will develop having Joy and her team.

ZillowVERIFIEDJoy Bender lives up to the title of Short Sale Specialist. She took on our home without batting an eye. Now with that said, our home is what in the business refers to as A'quaintA'. Translated this means OMG this house is old. Joy sat down with us, explained our options and outlined an aggressive game plan. Within three months, the short sale was completed. During that time Joy was available to answer any questions and she kept us informed on the current status. We highly recommend to anyone who is serious about utilizing the short sale process.

ZillowVERIFIEDI found Joy online while searching experienced listing agents with strong marketing plans. I feel like I had a great experience working with Joy because she always kept me informed of what I needed to do and have on hand to make sure that things worked out as smooth as possible with listing. She was always looking out for me and when it came to getting the closing nailed down she did a great job on her side to get it all pulled together to meet my time frame constraints.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe relocated from Michigan with very little time to do a home search. We were unfamiliar with the San Diego area and California in general. Joy did a great job seeking to understand what our home and space preferences were, our budget, and desired proximity to work and schools. Joy is very efficient and made good use of the time we had available to preview properties. She knew we didn't have a lot of time to spend searching the web and provided numerous options for us to review. She was able to provide information on schools, neighborhoods, hidden costs, tax information etc. We felt she was straight up with us on what to expect in our price range and she exhibited professionalism and integrity. Joy and Rob made closing very easy for us long distance and help us to organize inspections etc. We were relocated and in our new Poway home in just over 6 weeks. Joy and Rob have remained in touch with us and have been as much friends as business associates. Joy and Rob helped to make a very stressful situation (relocating your family 3000 miles away) a positive one. Service beyond the sale - we still get in touch with Joy and Rob for recommendations about contractors, great places to eat, what is happening with the housing market as well as how much to invest in our home based on property valuations. We highly recommend their services.

ZillowVERIFIEDJoy Bender is the most experienced and knowledgable Real Estate agent I ever worked with to purchase a home. She knows the La Jolla market and surrounding areas better then any other agent we tried working with on our purchase in June 2015.

ZillowVERIFIEDJoy and Rob found our perfect first home in one weekend, Joy was so aggressive she was able to get us the home we wanted, when the seller wasn't even willing to look at offers until one week into the listing to attract multiple offers. After our lenders appraisal came in, Joy was able to get us a $10k price reduction. Being first time home buyers we had a lot of questions and needed extra help, and they were there to guide us and answer any questions we had. My husband and I definitely recommend them to anyone looking for an experienced real estate agent."

ZillowVERIFIEDWe found Joy to be very pleasant, energetic, easy to work with. She was quick to understand what we were looking for. She was prompt with any inquiries, questions or concerns that we had. Very straightforward and not pushy. Closing was very smooth. And above all she found us a tenant within a month after closing. I really appreciate from the depth of my heart for everything she has done so far for us. Looking forward to work with her for all our real estate needs in the San Diego area.
