Testimonials


The Resume of Terri and Paul Guess

Ask any Realtor you meet for 50+ prior clients that you may ask any question of you want!


Many times you will find Testimonials from selected clients on a realtor's web site. Our approach is different... just as it is with our marketing.  The way that you know what a person is "Truly Committed To" is by the results.  Below is a list of some of our prior clients and behind each name is a link to their e-mail.  Contact any of them... or all of them.  Ask them anything you want about the service we provided them.  Our commitment is to achieving our clients goals!  We don't sell real estate... we do "Agency"... we represent others... at their request and with their permission to... apply our talents, knowledge, experience, thought processes, work ethic and physical assets in the achievement of their goal.  We are not interested in a "deal"... we are interested in lifetime clients.  We call our approach "Excellence in Agency"... and whether you are Selling or Buying... we have the proof of our commitment!


These are in a random order... not in order of how pleased they were :-)... date of sale... value... or any other criteria.  To Protect the privacy of our clients from "spammers" a "(remove this)" text link has been added to each e-mail.  When you click on the name... your e-mail software will insert a valid e-mail address preceded by (remove this).  Delete from the address the "(remove this)" and you will be able to send e-mail to any or all of these.

Bill and Stephanie Stevenson  Fell in love with their home the minute I saw it.  Photo in Union Tribune generated 168 responses. Did the first free standing web page we ever did... were not sure how that would work... Results were our first sale in Fallbrook... and truly the reason we live in Bonsall today.  Property had been on the market with another realtor.... no activity.  We fixed that! :-)


As you can tell by the above... most of our business is referral.  There is a message there :-)  That portion of our business that is not referral ... is 95+% Internet.  There's another message in that statistic.  We love what we do... our clients do too.  Please contact us if we can be of assistance in any way.
