Thank you Alex for making the sell of our home go as seamless as possible. You believed in what our home could do and produced that for us. I specially enjoyed the beautiful pictures you took that showcases the very best of our home. I also appreciate you being available for all of my questions and calls. I will definitely recommend you to anyone I know that is looking to sell their home in San Diego!
~ Deitre and Dale Parker
Not only did I receive a great offer on my home, you also helped me find a wonderful home, beating out other buyers in this crazy market! Thank you for your expertise and for making the transition seem effortless.

I couldn’t have asked for a more top-notch real estate agent than Alex. He was tremendously experienced and knowledgeable about every aspect of the purchase of my new home. He was always available to answer any question no matter how small, and his input was smart and savvy. Beyond the real estate transaction, I always felt that Alex cared about me as a person, and still do. He understood that finding the right home is a life decision, not only a financial one. I can honestly say that it was a genuine pleasure to work with Alex and would highly recommend him to someone looking for homes in the San Diego area.

I am still in shock…. We… are still in shock! Buying a home with you by our side was an amazingly smooth and short process. From the moment we met you and saw our first home together, both Doug and I truly felt like we had an advocate on our side. You inspected aspects of the homes that we would never know to look for and not once tried to sell to us like a car dealer…. you had the amazing ability to guide us with LOTS of patience and helped us pick the most amazing home.
Then it got even better, the group of professionals that you referred us to for lending and inspections were amazing. Doug and I are so grateful that you were with us through it all and felt that we had and still have you on OUR side…. We will keep you close to our hearts because you took care of us like we were family.
Thank you so much!
~ Rosie and Doug
Your patience and dedication to our needs in our home buying process made every step of the way a wonderful experience. You answered every question we had, no matter what time or day it was and always had a smile on your face. You helped our family find what we so proudly call our home. Our feeling is you have became a part of our family and are always welcome in our home. I have nothing but wonderful memories and positive things to say when it comes to Mr. Alex Yapjoco. He is top notch in my book!

When my wife and I started looking for our first house, we weren’t sure if we were really ready to move out of our apartment and commit to purchasing a home, especially given the high real estate prices in San Diego, so wanted a more casual, hands-off realtor. We had briefly tried another realtor before Alex, but he was too pushy and aggressive for us. When looking for a new realtor, we chose Alex because we had already been using his MLS search listings webpage. Alex had one of the best, most comprehensive MLS search listings available. It was free to use, and he did not immediately call you or hassle you if you registered. It was fully customizable, allowing you to search for several different amenities and in very small, local areas – not just by zip code. In addition, you could save the search criteria and have updated results automatically e-mailed to you. Alex knew we wanted a hands-off realtor and respected our needs, and we never felt pushed or pressured by him to buy a house or to bid more than we felt comfortable with. Instead, Alex was very patient and agreeable, let us offer what we wanted for the purchase price, even if it was well below the asking price, and was willing to show us any home we wanted. In fact, Alex showed us more homes than I can remember over a period of about eight months! I think many other realtors would have abandoned us after showing us that many homes over such a long period. Alex even showed us homes that several other realtors wouldn’t, such as short sales and homes sold by the owner. He also showed us homes over a very large range of asking prices and never asked to see a preapproved loan statement or questioned why we were looking at such a large range of pricings. He also didn’t mind when we frequently changed our minds about a house or what we were looking for in a house. Alex wanted to make sure that he found the perfect home for us and didn’t want us to settle, and he was willing to do anything to help us find that perfect home. And, while we appreciated Alex for his laid back attitude, he was thorough, fast-acting, responsive, diligent, knowledgeable, hard working, and aggressive when it came to getting the job done. If we wanted to see a house, Alex was immediately available to show us the house. If we wanted to make an offer, but wanted advice on how much to offer, Alex immediately e-mailed us comparables. When we decided to make an offer, Alex immediately had the papers drawn up and e-mailed to us, had us electronically sign them, and then submitted the offer. Any questions we had, Alex was able to answer them or did the research to come up with an answer. When we had an offer on a short-sale, Alex constantly worked with the seller’s bank to try to get the short sale approval to go through. When we needed contractors, inspectors, etc., Alex always had the best recommendations at hand. Alex also did an excellent job of working with difficult sellers and keeping deals on track and moving forward and also working with the seller’s agent. We finally did find a great house that had everything we wanted and was at an excellent price (below the seller’s listing price). Given that Alex was able to adapt to our style and personality, and find us the perfect home (even though we seemed reluctant to actually buy a house), I would imagine that any buyer or seller would be happy working with Alex. I could not have been happier with Alex as an agent and I highly recommend Alex, 5 out of 5 stars!

As first-time homebuyers we were completely oblivious to the workings of the real estate market, much less a market as hectic as today’s, but with Alex’s extensive knowledge and networking the process was made much easier. Alex’s constant commitment to professionalism made searching for a new home an enjoyable experience. As an agent he is attentive, hard-working, honest, and most of all…patient. We always felt like a priority and never felt pressured. Not only would we recommend Alex to others, we already have.
We are so happy in our new home, but sad to see him go. Thank you, Alex!!”

I am a veteran of home sales and purchases. The most recent is my 6th. Alex is the most patient, accommodating, thorough, tireless and courteous real estate professional with whom I have dealt over the last twenty years. He possesses uncanny calm in the face of complicated and frustrating situations. A real professional!
~ Gary M.
From the first moment we spoke to Alex we were amazed at his ability to answer all of our many questions. He treated us like we were his only clients and was fully dedicated to helping us find the home of our dreams. In just three months we closed escrow on a place that far exceeded our expectations. The saddest part of the deal was having to say goodbye to our realtor, who had started to feel like family. Alex and the many people he had referred us to along the way, have made the home buying experience so memorable! It was certainly some of the best months of our lives!
~ John, Andrea and Annabelle W.
Alex is great! We didn’t know very much about the real estate market in San Diego until we met Alex. He helped us find the perfect home in a nice neighborhood, then helped us come out on top when the vendor had several offers to choose from. He was able to help resolve every challenge we encountered. Alex’s skill and knowledge made all the difference.
I recommend him to all my friends and family. In fact, he has helped other family members purchase their dream home.

Being a young couple in the Military lifestyle my husband and I thought that we would never find a decent home (not too expensive) for us to purchase. I started out with an agent from a well known company and she was the worse. She made me second guess even purchasing a home. She made me believe that she was all about the purchase and not about our well-being. During all of this we were tied up in an escrow that we no longer wanted to deal with and she really didn’t help us get our money back. All of the frustration turned into upset and I didn’t know what to do. So I decided not to use her again due to my experience. Finally, I received a phone call from Alex (right on time) and I explained to him that we were still tied up in an escrow because the seller is not giving us our money back. Alex got his information and gave him a call and within 3 days the seller signed a release. By Alex’s expertise and professionalism I knew that he was about his clients and not the purchase.
So I started over with Alex and my husband and I never felt more comfortable. Every question that we had it was answered; no matter the subject. We were never rushed or pushed to by something unless we were interested. Within the month we found a very nice condo and purchased within 3 weeks. The entire process was painless and fun. If I was to ever recommend a real estate agent it will be Alex Yapjoco hands down. I am very pleased with his professionalism and caring. We thank you Alex with all that we have. You are #1 in our book!

We live in the Bay Area but had to purchase a home in San Diego within a short period of time. Alex guided us to the perfect house, and completed all the details on the purchase in a very professional and timely manner. We have purchased seven homes, but have never had such great service.
Alex also sold 2 of our homes in a very quick manner while getting us the best price possible!

I was always the one who thought that I would never be able to buy a house in Southern California. I found this website and saw properties in the areas I was interested in living and submitted a request to view some of them. He replied back in very short order and within a day I was standing in the living room of a condo I never thought I could own. The reality is, I’m in the military, I had 2 car payments and currently rented, so getting financed seemed impossible. Well Alex referred me to a mortgage broker that worked miracles for me and was able to secure my financing.
From the day we first met to the moment that our bid was accepted by the sellers, we had only worked with Alex for a month! In that time we looked at dozens of properties, and drove all over San Diego, not to mention the late night phone calls. I mean Alex really worked hard for us, and I was very pleased with my experience. I’ve referred everyone I know that is looking at homes to him, and when it comes time to sell, I’ll be calling him back as well. Thank You so much Alex for helping make my family’s dream a reality!

Working with Alex was great! Every silly question I could come up with was answered quickly if not immediately, and accurately. I could not have asked for a better real estate consultant. I have more than a few friends in the real estate business and no one performed like Alex. We just told him what we liked and he found several options. We ended up with a great deal very quickly and if not for Alex it would not have happened. The search for a home was made easier with his emails and web page. If you want a full time real estate professional Alex is your guy.

Although we had a friend that was a realtor, we didn’t feel comfortable asking that friend to do the things that you did for us. You went the extra mile to find us our dream home!

Dear Alex,
It’s been a few months since we first met you and we haven’t regretted it one bit. It was the best thing that we ever did when thinking about purchasing our first home for our new family (baby “Jake” is due June 15th, 2004).
One of the things that I loved about working with Alex is that he is very tech savvy. His web site is really amazing! I loved it because it’s a great tool for me to shop for homes all over San Diego County and having a very demanding job during the day made surfing the Web at night looking for homes, very easy. My wife loved all of the “time sensitive” current updates for new homes in the area.
However, searching for homes in the San Diego county was a little tricky at first. We had no “basic knowledge” of the many beautiful area’s San Diego county has to offer. Alex quickly got us focused on our needs and pricing in the area. Then we found it, the home of our dreams. Conclusion: Alex got the job done right! I strongly recommend Alex Yapjoco when searching for your next home or the home of your dreams.
With very best personal regards,
~ Christopher, Tamara and “baby” Jake J.
We had tried three or four realtors over a six month period to help us find our dream home. I was referred to Alex through our mortgage broker. Within 24 hours we had found exactly what we wanted. It was miraculous! Not only did he find us a house, he helped us through the escrow process. Alex is #1 in realtors.
~ Sandy W.
We are all moved in and mostly unpacked. Our home buying experience was an absolute pleasure! From our first meeting you were professional and courteous. Alex knew the right questions to ask the sellers and us. Alex was quick to answer our questions and if there was one he was not sure of, he found the answer within a day.
Alex made sure that our expectations were met and our escrow went extremely smooth. There were no problems with any part of our home buying experience. Alex, you are one of a kind! You made our first dream home a reality! We are looking forward to the day that our new daughter gets to enjoy her room.
THANK YOU!
~ Marco, Elise and Maddie
Thank you so much for all your help. Melissa is all moved in and everything seems to be going smoothly. You made our real estate purchase in San Diego seem effortless. From the time that Melissa contacted you through your website to the final walk through and close of escrow, I felt like you paid attention to all the details and put a lot of effort into making the transaction easy since we were out of the area. We would definitely recommend you to anyone looking to make a home purchase in the San Diego area.
