Think Boutiq Real Estate Lenders

" Your reputation proceeds you, and everyone has one. Based upon a recommendation I enlisted Maggie Knight to sell my downtown Long Beach loft which she successfully did in record time. So when it became time to sell an investment property, I didn't hesitate to call Maggie and her team at the Knight Group again. Maggie's marketing efforts were insightful, creative and spot-on. She directed all aspects of the remodeling, staging, and dealing with the HOA. I cannot begin to describe how helpful this was to me as I've retired and don't live nearby. She was there for me, she made it happen, and she set a record sale in the building. Not only is she a great person, but she has a great reputation! "

- Ray Holdgrafer

" Dependable and hardworking! Terri was an excellent realtor. Always willing to go the extra mile for me. She answered every question I had, explained everything in detail. Always upfront and honest. The brochure she did of my home was gorgeous! She helped stage my home to looks it's best. Once my home sold, at top dollar, she got started right a way on finding me a new home. I am now happily in a new home and couldn't have done it without Terri. Verified by RateMyAgent "

" Maggie a wonderful agent! She is very supportive and very patient. I have known her for many years and she has always provided me with the level of support I needed during my search for a home and then buying a home. She took the time to understand what my husband and I were looking for and took to heart what was important to us. Buying a home is a very big moment, and we felt like we had a good friend on our side during this process. Maggie listened with open ears and advocated for our best interests. We are now in a beautiful new home and we are very happy. If you are looking for an agent who is kind, smart, knowledgeable, and professional Maggie is the right agent for you. "

- Tatiana Dorman

" Sarah was amazing to work with for buying our home. She is professional and knows how to navigate the complications of making offers on homes in a tough market. She was a delight to spend time with while going to multiple open houses all while listening and learning our preference. She is honest and you can rest assured that she has your best interests in mind when making offers. She was always quick to respond to any concerns or questions. I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy their next home. "

" Maggie Knight and Jeannie Jones are professionals. But they make the magic happen in a personal manner. They were realistic and practical with me and my family- giving us needed deadlines, but also gave us the needed inspiration to actually make this move happen. These are two bright, kind, ethical women. I enjoyed how they collaborated and showed respect to each other, to other contractors and folks in the mix. Buying and selling is stressful- I needed their level of honesty, consistency, and will be forever grateful at how they jumped in to help with a variety of adventures along the way. (Can you say plumbing?) I have no doubt that they want the best for my family and for me. This was essential on top of the foundation of their impeccable knowledge of the market and to successfully navigate both the sale of my house and the purchase of our new home! I would refer Maggie and Jeannie to my parents and one day, to my children. And I recommend them highly to anyone who appreciates good humans who also are exceptional in their navigation of real estate. "

- Ellen Hartwick

" Maggie Knight was a pleasure to work with. Very professional, & enjoyable agent to have that was always on top of things & following up for us whenever she could, regardless of whoever she had to contact or look up to reach out to. She was with us at the beginning of our journey of searching for a New-Build home within the masterplanned community of Ontario Ranch, & she stuck with us hard & fought for us throughout the entire time. Whether if it was assisting us in acquiring a lot during multiple builder's Phase Releases or if it was during Closing Escrow time, we wouldn't of wanted to have anyone else by our side. Thank you for helping us find, build, & close the deal on our very own first Home Maggie. Alyssa & I appreciate all of your outstanding services & efforts. "

- Teddy Allen & Alyssa Mae

" As a first-time home buyer, I was both excited and anxious about going through a real home-buying experience with no prior knowledge about offers, inspections, appraisal, escrow, taxes and insurance. Through a professional acquaintance, I contacted Maggie Knight and was immediately delighted to hear her professionalism and enthusiasm on our first phone call. She would always return my phone calls, text messages and email messages to provide me answers to my questions and put me at ease throughout the whole process knowing I was represented by a very experienced, highly competent and very nice realtor. With her professional network of lender contacts, home inspectors, and construction workers, she helped guide me through all phases of owning a home from getting pre-approved for a home loan through her lender contact, submitting a highly competitive offer with a personal letter for the home I desired, responding to counter-offers, scheduling a qualified and certified home inspector through her contact, reviewing the home inspection report and submitting a repair request, obtaining a quote for home owners insurance, reviewing the appraisal report, and finally closing escrow. I highly recommend Maggie Knight for anyone looking to buy a home. Her experience, confidence and sincere personality made it a rewarding experience for me. "

- Tony Thomson

" Maggie handled everything for me, from scheduling and recommending workers, moving company, to construction company for my newly purchased residence. All top notch reliable people. Maggie is extremely dedicated to her clients in every way. A stressful process of selling and buying another home was not stressful at all because I knew I was in perfectly capable hands. I didnt have to worry about a thing. Maggie is also always available to questions as she returns calls immediately. Her professionalism, knowledge, and experience is outstanding with the entire process of what may and will arise. I will be recommending her services to my family, friends, and coworkers. Additional qualites of Maggies I want to mention is that she is always positive and personable. I will seek Maggies services in the future with all of my real estate transactions. "

- Susie Leskera

" Sarah Sweetheart - We love her beautiful smile and warmth. It felt like we were house shopping with a good friend. Available - She never said no to a viewing, whether it was a second or third time at the same house, or even after we were in escrow she was available for us to still look around. Respectful - My husband and I felt very well served by her. She has a servant's spirit. She always made us feel like it was whatever we wanted. She never made us feel embarrassed to ask a question or ridiculous for doubting a decision. Analytical - She paid very close attention to what we wanted, our taste, our style, our needs, our budget, and was very well versed with the market and neighborhoods of interest. Honest - Our family appreciated her tactful, professional honesty. In no way did we second guess her loyalty to us. She was devoted to our best interest. "

- Cynthia Thompson

" Russ helped my boyfriend and me find our first home together. Russ remained patient with us as we looked at homes for over a year. He always listened to what we were looking for and made sure to show us homes that checked all or most of our boxes. When it came time to putting an offer in, Russ went above and beyond to make sure we got the home. We would recommend Russ to anybody and would not hesitate to use him again in the future! "

- Lauren & John

" Maggie is a wonderful agent. Smart, savvy and professional, I could not have made this life changing journey without her. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. She really is the best "

- Laurie Potter

" I spoke with Maggie a couple of years ago when we were considering making a move to Long Beach. Our plans were delayed and we had another agent when we decided to make the move late in 2017. The other agent failed us. I recognized Maggie on one of her listings and called her. We made plans to look at properties that week ... and we looked at several ... then we both searched the MLS for days but nothing filled our wants and needs. Maggie didn't give up and 'thought outside the box' to find 'our' new home! It was for sale by owner ... we met at the owner's open house, looked at the home, liked it a lot, and Maggie negotiated the purchase for us. We moved in a week ago and we know we made the right choices: first by calling Maggie, second by choosing our new home. If you choose Maggie as your agent, she will represent your interests with honesty and integrity! "

- Jan Beaman

" The house Maggie helped us get was listed right down the street from our rental. We were moving out that weekend, and never thought we'd be back in the quiet, beautiful area we were about to leave. Maggie had an open house the Sunday we were cleaning the rental to leave, and we took a break to check it out - just for fun. Then we went back, and back, and back again. All along Maggie was there with her assistant to help all the questions we had about the house, as well as enjoy our excitement about viewing the house. Finally, we decided to make an offer that late Sunday evening! Since she had been so helpful, we decided to go with her as our agent. Without batting an eye, she said when she was available and came over to our empty rental to write the offer. After writing up the offer, she suggested that it might be good to write the owners a letter, leaving it up to us to express whatever we wanted to about the house, the neighborhood, and ourselves. We wrote the letter, met the couple, and ended up getting the house! All that might not have been possible without Maggie. We also used Maggie as the listing agent to sell our house. We ended up accepting an offer well over the asking price due to Maggie's pricing strategy, which we initially bucked a bit, but in the end we were thankful we let her set the price. She does her homework, and has a specific strategy with explicit reasons for her suggestions. That won us over. All along the way, in both selling our previous home and buying our new home, Maggie was available to answer every question we had. And when she was not available (she was on vacation for part of our escrow), her assistant Teresa kept things running smoothly for us. Maggie surrounds herself with highly competent associates, as we found out. Maggie not only does the work for you as seller or buyer, she also celebrates your little victories along the way with you. Whether it's removing a contingency or getting a loan approved, she's right there with you all the way to the day of closing! She keeps reminding you that you're getting closer every day - something that's much needed during a stressful few weeks. We could not have been happier in our sudden, unexpected turn at buying and selling a house than we have been with Maggie Knight. "

- Mike Chambers

" My husband and I feel very lucky that we found Russ to be our real estate agent. Russ helped us to find our first home and it was everything we wanted. We had a lot of things on our checklist (we were quite picky!) and we were not living in the area we were looking to buy in. Russ was so easy to get in touch with and on top of things. He would use Marco Polo to send us videos of the houses we could not see in person and he always kept in mind our checklist and budget when sharing new properties with us. When we were confused on paperwork details during the buying process, Russ always explained everything easily and clearly and was very patient. He is kind and funny and it was wonderful to go through the house buying process with an agent like him. We definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a new home. He is the best! "

- Lauren & Drew

" If you're looking for the best agent out there, look no further! This was my first home buying experience, and KJ made the process so easy and smooth. I didn't know what to expect, but KJ walked me through each step and explained everything. She was very responsive to all of my questions and concerns and made me feel at ease. You will not be disappointed! "

- Nick T.

" Yea! Maggie sold our home in record time. Getting the listing out quickly, getting the photos out there to having Open House almost immediately. Maggie's knowledge of the neighborhood, the plus' of the property and the Coldwell Banker name brings professionalism to the table. We're glad to have chosen Maggie to sell our property she's professional, trustworthy, and she works hard at selling your house. She is highly motivated. Thank you Maggie, you made this endeavor stress free and it was a pleasure doing business with you. "

- Vicki Jansen

" "My Wife and I had the most amazing experience working with Cynthia in purchasing our first home. She is extremely knowledgeable and very professional. She is always available and guided us through every steps. she always puts the client first and looks for their best interest. She communicated with us consistently throughout, provided helpful checklists of the process so we knew exactly what to expect and when and even offered us help with our move. she was always transparent and gave us unbiased opinions. She continued to be by our side through the escrow process, answering our questions and continued to look out for our best interest until we closed...and we closed in less than 28 days! The entire home purchase process can be stressful and emotionally draining but with Cynthia, it wasn't. We are so thrilled to have found our home and we cannot thank Cynthia enough!We highly recommend Cynthia & her team to anyone looking to buy/sell their home. You will definitely be in good hands!" "

- Althaf Basheer

" I would highly recommend Brett! He is knowledgeable, personable, and caring. As a first time home buyer, we were very nervous and Brett’s care and attention calmed our nerves. Every aspect from the tours to negotiations and to receiving the keys was an absolute breeze. My wife and I will use Brett for all of our real estate needs in the future! "

- G.M.

" Isadora is knowledgeable, approachable, personable, endlessly patient, and incredibly generous with her time (including mornings, evenings, and weekends over the course of several months). She answered every question and explained every form and every part of the process clearly and thoroughly. Buying a home in this market is challenging, but working with Isadora made it as painless and straightforward as possible. We highly recommend her. "

- B. L.

" We thought buying a house was going to be a stressful experience and yet it went so smoothly. Nicole walked us through the entire process and made the whole experience pleasurable and stress free. She asked us for list of wants and needs and delivered! We highly recommend her!!! "

- L. Obar

" Maggie and Jeannie are the epitome of what it means to be a class act. From our very first meeting, I was highly impressed by their knowledge, professionalism, and communication which made me feel extremely confident that they could help us sell our home quickly. And that they did! I am extremely appreciate of their delicacy with navigating the entire process as they were many obstacles to overcome. When all odds seemed like they were against us there were moments where we felt defeated, and it was hard to keep going. But their tenacity gave us the strength to push forward, and I am thankful they were there to guide us every step of the way to the finish line. I would recommend Maggie and her team 1,000 times over and over again for any of your real estate needs. I can't tell you enough how impressed I am with this dream team. They are absolutely the best! They are truly dedicated to their profession, pay attention to detail, highly responsive, and possess great negotiating skills. Maggie, thank you again for everything! When we're ready to buy another home, I'm definitely calling you! "

- Liz Cristobal

" It was seamless from start to finish.... I couldn't be more satisfied..!! Nicole is a "True Professional" and I would use her again. We listed with her and the 1st weekend we had 10 strong offers to choose from. We picked the best and sold own Home and closed escrow in less than 30 days!!!!!! "

- S.D.

" Our sale and purchase happened quickly and seamlessly. We closed less than 30 days from our list date. Every detail was attended to by Maggie and her team. Even the listing agent on our purchase raved about them. If you want your move to be as easy as possible you need to hire The Knight Group. "

- Carolyn Gatze

" Maggie was truly the DREAM real estate agent to sell our home. Within days of us deciding to sell our house, Maggie was able to secure several off-market showings & offers through her existing contacts (before it even listed!), and after publicly listing, we ended up with a handful of great offers to select from right away. She was incredible in every sense of the word, and made the home selling process incredibly easy for us as well. Highly recommend!! "

- Dan & SJ Cox

" It was so great working with Maggie Knight and her team of amazing professionals! We were able to find a home, close escrow quickly and expertly while having fun along the way. I can highly recommend this team. ~ Pam Redding "

" Hands down to our Realtor Dublin, after 9 months of looking he came through and helped us find our Home! We couldn't have asked for a more consistent, caring, generous man to go through this journey with us. Through my emotional ups and downs in searching for our first home he stayed positive and kept me focused! He never made us feel like clients it was more like we were his family. I'm eternally grateful for him! Even though escrow closed months ago he continues to check in on us. We gained a friend for life. That's what I call an excellent Realtor/ Man! "

- Gloria R.

" This review is long overdue! If you are looking for a real estate agent that is friendly, knowledgeable and goes the extra mile Simone McCormick is your girl! My husband and I booked an appointment to view a property through Zillow and it connected us with Simone for our tour- WE ARE SO GLAD THAT IT DID! We had been looking at properties online and knew what we wanted so when we met her and toured the condo we knew we wanted it! We were not working with a real estate agent yet and when we met Simone on our tour and talked with her it just felt right, like a great fit. It turned out to be a perfect fit! We put our offer in the next morning with Simone as our realtor and our offer was accepted that evening. Everything moved so fast and she was there every step of the way to answer any questions, tell us what the next step was and to help us navigate around our first home purchase. I can't thank Simone enough for helping us purchase our first home. If you are looking for a real estate agent look no further- Simone is your gal!! "

- Stephanie O.

" My wife and I were recently represented as buyers by Russ Quackenbush. From inception of the representation to the close of escrow, we could not have asked for finer service. Russ was exceedingly professional, never pushy and was client-oriented in that he always put our interests first. He worked tirelessly to help us find, and then conclude the purchase, of a property in which we are entirely satisfied. We have purchased and sold numerous properties over the years and no agent has performed to higher standards. We recommend Russ enthusiastically and without any reservation. "

- Dave and Chris

" My family has worked with Maggie and her amazing team on three separate real estate projects in the past three years! She is very positive and hard working, not to mention having her never ending support! We knew we were in good hands with this last sale which proved to be emotional and bittersweet. We will be friends forever, and I cannot say enough wonderful things about her - You Go Girl!! "

- Pam Redding

" It was an absolute pleasure working with Maggie. She always had the best insight and work ethic. This was huge considering I am a first time home buyer and had some less than positive experiences with other agents before hand. I knew she would always have my best interest at heart and applied herself in neighborhoods/ areas that were outside of her usual territory. I can't thank her enough for taking my calls at all times of the day and on the weekends especially. I couldn't think of a better agent to buy my first home with. Thanks Maggie! "

- Nick Pegnato

" Me and my husband would be completely remiss not to shout out our amazing agent and friend. When we met Jolie Koblin over 22 years ago, we knew she was bomb.com but we had no idea what a blessing she would be to us later in life. Early 2022 we decided to finally start looking into buying and shared the news with family and friends, we had about 4 agents that were quickly recommended to us by them. But we knew if anyone was really going to help us that will be Jolie. She had the patience to explain the whole process of everything. Jolie thank you for being our power player and working so hard for us. May you continue to be as blessed in your career and life as you are a blessing to so many people. Love you Jolie! "

- Tania L.

" She cares and she hustles for you Terri handled a duplex income property sale, so it was a little different than your normal home sale. She is so charismatic and good with people. She showed our place, had patience with our endless questions and sold it without as much as hiccup. She really hustled for us, she is very caring and loyal to her friends and clients. Her client(s) will probably be added to her array of friends. She does her work and searches out the right person for your place. Thank you Terri...you are a love Verified by RateMyAgent "

" Your reputation proceeds you, and everyone has one. Based upon a recommendation I enlisted Maggie Knight to sell my downtown Long Beach loft which she successfully did in record time. So when it became time to sell an investment property, I didn't hesitate to call Maggie and her team at the Knight Group again. Maggie's marketing efforts were insightful, creative and spot-on. She directed all aspects of the remodeling, staging, and dealing with the HOA. I cannot begin to describe how helpful this was to me as I've retired and don't live nearby. She was there for me, she made it happen, and she set a record sale in the building. Not only is she a great person, but she has a great reputation! ~ Ray Holdgrafer "

- Ray Holdgrafer

" What a world wind! We told Maggie we were ready to put our house on the market and needed to sell FAST, since we were moving cross country in a month! And man did she deliver. From start to finish she partially staged our house to perfection with help from her amazing network, did full photo /video/ Instagram and print marketing, listed, set up showings, an open house weekend and ultimately got us 8 over asking offers in the first week!! We accepted and closed with an offer at $151,000 over asking!!!!! And to top it off, with a only 15 day escrow that allowed us to leave the state with the money in our pockets, ready for our new home purchase! But she didn’t stop there, after we left there were a couple of things that needed tidying up at the house and she told us not to worry, she’d take care of it and ensure all was ready for the new owners. Aside from the stellar outcome of our sale, Maggie’s kindness, hardwork and overall passion for prioritizing her clients best interests at alll stages blew us away. We are so incredibly greatful to have worked with her and wouldn’t work with anyone else in CA. Looking forward to our family and friends buying and selling with her in the near and far future. Thank you Maggie! You’re truely the best! ~ Ava Brannon "

" Jolie made the entire experience of selling my house effortless. I was impressed and relieved how quickly and expertly she resolved any issue with the buyer. She has a positive attitude, very knowledgeable and such a pleasant and easy manner. During each step of the process she continually kept me informed and I felt we were a team. I wish I could give her another star, five isn't enough. "

- Jonathan B.

" Maggie handled the sale of our property and purchase of our new one. Not going to lie - this is a tricky scenario to navigate and she took every single step with poise and with a plan. For our sale, she recommended a few months back to prepare the home by painting our fence, decluttering, sprucing up the front and back yards. When that was complete, she scheduled a professional photographer and videographer and had our listing prepped in MLS. She had already ordered all the fliers, brochures and just listed postcards - all waiting to be distributed. When we found the new home we wanted to write an offer on, she immediately listed our property and built the necessary relationships with the other listing agent. Even though we were contingent on the sale of our property, our offer was accepted and everything closed in about 30 days. It was seamless. "

- Jodi Bonk

" If every Realtor was as good as Maggie, the world would be a better place! We loved our house Esther! It was during my years there I met my husband. Esther holds a special place in our heart. And, when the time came that we needed just a little bit more space and expand to new beginnings, we wanted to work with someone who we could trust. Who is willing to take the journey with you, this is Maggie! She is a respected leader in her profession, a personable and energetic guide through the complex home sale process, and an ultimate professional always willing to go to bat for what you need, not just what you want. She knows the market and it shows! Thank you Maggie for the partnership and for making the sale of Esther smooth and quick. "

" KJ and her team are amazing! As a first time home buyer, I was not sure what to expect and she walked me through the process step by step. She was great at listening to me, translating my needs into some great opportunities and challenging my thinking when I needed it! What I enjoy most about her approach is that she's genuine and savvy. You see this first hand in how she leads her business by building authentic relationships, her impeccable hard work and her willingness to connect you with people to make your vision come to life. This market is not easy for a buyer but having KJ here to guide my vision for a home and decisions ultimately landed me a place that I could not be more thrilled about! Thank you KJ and team for all your hard work (and patience) along the way. Highly, highly recommend KJ for any and all real estate needs, especially if you're in the Long Beach area. "

" Ms. Teasley, This letter is a long-time coming, and is intended to show our gratitude and appreciation for the exceptional service and client representation you provide. You have certainly earned our respect and admiration. Your professionalism and positive attitude pave the way with the most-troubling real estate transactions we tend to face. We receive remarkable responses from clients we refer to you, and we appreciate the results you achieve. We are aware that transactions coming via our office frequently entail probate, litigation, foreclosure, and evictions, yet you never waiver, and clearly fear no challenge. In fact, we are starting to believe you actually look forward to the complicated ones, and we are impressed. The clients are too, and they can sense your calming and professional control of the whirlwind around them. You truly have a skill, and we notice it. You should know that. That is why we call you our “Litigation Avoidance Consultant” and whenever possible, we seek your involvement, and benefit from your services. However, when litigation is inevitable, you certainly can stand and deliver. As an example, recently, our mutual client accompanied you and me to court three times, and there she saw your hard work pay off. When does a realtor actually go to court, let alone three times, for one client? That case involved a probate, a quiet title action, an eviction, fraud, contract disputes, local law enforcement, the District Attorney, and more. Your willingness to battle with the pending foreclosure, neutralize the problematic tenant, provide a signed declaration with valuable industry insight, along with your preparation, appearance, and willingness to testify in court, most-certainly helped us prevail. Clearly, your collaboration made a difference with all involved, and eventually in the courtroom, as the other party knew you were there, and knew the truth was soon to follow. There is no doubt, your effort in that case facilitated the hard-earned result for our mutual client. And, you did all of this while keeping an escrow together for the eventual successful sale. It was impressive. There is no substitute for experience, and your experience is the foundation of your zealous advocacy for your clients. You have a work ethic like no other realtor, and our clients and our firm are thankful for you. Although we do not want to share you, we do wish you great success and hope this letter represents what a valuable asset you are to our firm. You certainly have our permission and our support to present this letter to others and use our firm as a professional reference as you continue your client-focused, result-oriented, real estate practice. We wish you all the best, and look forward to bringing you in for the next case, and the next one after that. There is clearly no one else we will call. You are the best. "

" It was a pleasure purchasing my first home with Realtor Maggie Knight! She was always available, even last minute to show me properties and inquire/ provide me with any specific details I asked. Great communication skills and always thoroughly explained the buying process once my offer was accepted. It was obvious at the start she is highly dedicated to her profession, I would definitely work with her again in the future. "

- Desiree Mendoza

" Working with Russ will make your home purchase journey very easy. From the moment you meet him, you will be able to see just how much knowledge he has about real estate. Not only is he a real estate agent, but he also has a lot of experience being a buyer and seller, which comes in extremely handy as he knows what to look for in a home. The feedback he gives at every open house is extremely beneficial to buyers who don't really know what to look out for. He also checks out homes for you, and sends videos with his review, which also saves a lot of your own time. He's also very nice and easy to talk to. He takes into account what you're looking for in a home, before suggesting homes to you, unlike other agent's who just send any home available. Overall, Russ is someone I can trust, and will be recommending to all my family and friends. "

- Rodrigo Garcia

" Sarah is the best. We met her at an open house when we were first considering moving and instantly felt comfortable with her. She was the first realtor we had met that did not pressure us into selling our condo when we were thinking about buying a house. She spent a great deal of time and energy showing us houses until we found the perfect one. We were a little picky and she never made us feel like we were wasting her time, she never tried to "sell us" on a house, and she worked with us to find the perfect one. She is also the friendliest person and somehow is always happy. Sarah also took a lot of stress out of house hunting by looking at the houses before she recommended them to us. And she worked with our lender so we did not have to deal with a bunch of phone calls all the time. We could not be happier with the experience we had with Sarah and highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell their property. "

- Jeff Marshall

" We met Mike on accident, after realizing that our first agent was not a good match for us. We immediately clicked with him and it was a blessing that we found him. Sticking with him was a great choice! First, Mike made sure we made informed decisions; he has educated us through every step, answered every question, and was patient with us! Besides the client education, he has also provided pep talks whenever I felt discouraged, and I really appreciated whenever he helped shift perspectives… Home buying was a such nerve wrecking process and it helped a lot that we had such a patient agent with a positive mindset! Next, Mike was a TRUE REPRESENTATIVE! He represented us well and fought for us through every offer, every step of the escrow process, and every roadblock we’ve encountered! Whenever I think he’s done a lot, he went and did a lot more. So many problems and pushbacks happened during escrow, and Mike fought to make this sale happen for us! His hard work is also very evident! He’s worked so many weekends and holidays, has sent us e-mails, messages, and paperwork late at night and in the early morning. He’s never late on anything. He would already have updates for us before we even wonder about updates. Finally, he introduced us to mortgage broker @cheninelozano , another great contributor into why we’re homeowners now! We’re so grateful that Mike recommended her. All in all, we are so grateful that we chose Mike as our realtor. His work defines “going above and beyond.” I know the best gift I can give him for everything that he’s done is my review and referrals because this hardworking man deserves more blessings!! Thank you Mike for everything!! "

" My wife and I were looking for an investment property, but didn't have a preapproval, and weren't expecting to find something so quickly. But we did, and I called my friend Maggie, and she jumped on it. We were the first to see the property, talked at length with the owner (who was also the realtor), I got preapproved quickly, and we got our offer in. It didn't get accepted, but while touring open houses for in earnest properties, we happened upon a house right by the beach that we fell in love with for ourselves. We weren't planning to make a move for another year, but the house was too good to pass up, and actually a blessing for our growing family (the baby we are adopting was born 9/6/16). Maggie once again jumped in full steam ahead. It was a long windy rollercoaster as we had to scramble to sell our LA home. Maggie, my Long Beach realtor, had to coordinate with my LA realtor, up against numerous deadlines and unforeseen issues to seamlessly reach a concurrent close of escrow for both properties. At times I thought it wasn't going to work out. But Maggie was always calm, cool and collected, optimistic, and never showed an ounce of stress. She was always accessible, a calming force when I was a crazy stressball, and she got things done quickly, efficiently, and with good results. Plus, Maggie loves Long Beach and just purchased a home there herself. Her passion for her work and the city shows, and anyone would be lucky to have her as their agent. Thanks, Maggie!!! We love you!!! "

" Israel Hernandez provided excellent service going above and beyond to make sure our family got into the perfect home for us. He sent not only me, but my partner and my mom daily searches that met our criteria. He does his research and goes above and beyond by accommodating us in every way including scheduling his schedule around us in order to view countless open houses. I can always count on him! Even until this day he is very helpful in providing any information I seemed to have forgotten about our home. Thank you Israel for all that you do and continue to do! "

" The cape! The crown! Give it all to this hero! Maggie helped my husband and I through every aspect of first-time home buying. From sending us listing that fit our needs and wants (perfectly) to clearly explaining the entire process to us newbies, to emotionally supporting us through the scary parts, to helping us keep our eyes on the prize and strategize. Maggie had our backs through the entire process. It was obvious she is well respected in her profession, as she had a very positive and cheerful rapport with everyone we encountered. People say home buying is stressful? Not when you know you are in very good hands. "

- Marianne Stewart

" Maggie is the most thoughtful and thorough real estate agent I have met. It took us months to find the right property but she remained patient and insightful. I can't wait to work with her again! "

- Kosta

" To begin with our house was sold within the first 12 hours at full price... I am in investor that has dealt with several transactions and realtors during the span of several years .This time was special , we sold our family home and needed a special team . Maggie and her team truly distinguish themselves from the rest . The level of professionalism, knowledge, ideas in marketing and attention mixed with the human touch and understanding they have to each transaction build up a trust relation that is hard to see in today's real estate world. Having them represent us was truly a pleasure, a success and a blessing ! "

- California Homeowner

" After seeing how great she was with our friends, we reached out to Maggie in hopes of finding our first home. We put our trust in her completely, and here we are now with a beautiful house for our family. We wanted 3 things from our agent: responsiveness, knowledge, and patience. Maggie absolutely crushed those. She answered every one of our million phone calls, text messages, and emails. She gave us thoughtful, veteran advice. She helped us stay optimistic (yet practical) when the market created impossibility after impossibility. She knew when to slow things down for us, and when to put pressure on the other side. She’s both a guiding hand and a bulldog. If you’re starting out your journey, there is no one better to have by your side. "

- Michael and Pooja Kim

" After going through 2 real estate agents, we found a gem in Sarah! She's absolutely amazing! She payed attention to details and showed us homes that fit our wants and desires. I appreciate her willingness to show us houses at the spur of the moment. From beginning to end, Sarah was there for us. In fact, we just had a house warming, and Sarah on her own, volunteered to be the photographer. She took pictures and later emailed them to us. Totally unexpected! She's just amazing! Buying a home is a huge commitment and you'll want someone that you can depend on to be there for you! I highly recommend you contact Sarah! She'll help and guide you through the process! "

- Jorge Pineda

" Cynthia is simply OUTSTANDING! Stress-free and dependable experience. She’s been there every step of the way for me, from viewing the homes I’m interested in to finding the best mortgage broker, to inspections, to making the right contacts to ensure I’m knowledgeable about the house I’m buying, and to finding the right specialists who can help with my concerns. I absolutely wouldn’t know what I’d do without her. Also, she’s HONEST and full of great advice. Considering I’ve gone through this process for buying my first home, this time around with buying my vacation home I can’t believe how much better it could have been if I’ve found someone like Cynthia to purchase my first home. I definitely will recommend her to anyone who needs to buy a house. "

- Diana Tran

" I can't think of anything that could have happened to make this experience better. Maggie was incredibly professional, self sufficient, and supportive during this whole process to the point I would consistently forget we were even selling our house. She worked out all the necessary details and appointments with our tenant to make the entire selling process smooth and basically invisible to us. We knew when we bought our last house that Maggie was our realtor for life and this just cemented that fact to us. We appreciate you Maggie and can't wait to work together again soon! "

- Katie & Ryan Leahy

" I want to start of as saying as a first time homebuyer I had no knowing of what to expect. My agent Sara was very professional, patient and I immediately felt very comfortable with her, I felt her sincere in wanting to help me find my dream home, Sara went beyond my expectations, after one month of finally finding my dream home, I still message Sara with questions and she responds immediately. Thank you Sara for your professionalism and patience and all you did to help me get my dream home! "

- Gabby L- Anaheim Hills, CA

" Working with Nicole in my home-buying experience was truly a great experience, she always took the time to answer any and all of my questions, always responsive, very knowledgeable, and always looked out for my family in the process, which I genuinely appreciated. Nicole ensured we, as home-buyers, were well informed with up-to-date information and changes in the real estate market, she was very professional and attentive to us from beginning to end. She genuinely cares, is committed to making the experience seamless, and always has her client's best interest at heart. I am so grateful to have been referred to Nicole and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell or purchase a home. Thank you so much Nicole! "

- M. Cruz

" Nicole was the best! We emailed her on a Sunday evening wanting to put an offer on a home completely out of the blue, and by Tues, we had been pre-approved, seen the house and submitted an offer. That one didn’t work out, but for every other home we saw, we were looking at the home the day we saw it listed, or maybe the day after. She was always super responsive, knowledgeable and has been an absolute dream to work with! We just purchased our forever home and the process was seamless thanks to Nicole. I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a house! "

- K. Estes

" I made a phone call to Zillow last October 2021 and I was connected with Cynthia. I have to admit I was a bit of a cranky customer who was a little exhausted with my previous home-buying experience. Cynthia was very understanding & calming. She asked a lot of pertinent questions to understand what I wanted in a home and connected me with a good lender who was able to meet my specific needs. I wanted to give up several times because it was looking very hopeless but Cynthia encouraged me to persevere and kept me on track. I’m glad she did and I’m very happy I found a great home just before the interest rates went through the roof. I can’t thank Cynthia enough and would recommend her to anyone 100 times over. She’s very down to earth honest and did an extremely good job negotiating on my behalf "

- Daniel Hesketh

" We worked with Jolie to buy our current home and to sell our previous one. Jolie was very professional and responsive throughout the entire process. She responded at all hours and was prompt with appointments. She took the time to answer all of our questions and always kept our best interests in mind. We recommend her for your home buying/selling needs. "

- Diane Tran

" I had such an amazing experience with Dublin and the Wahlberg Group that I would recommend them to anybody. Dublin looked at places with us for two solid months. He would meet us as often as we wanted, sometimes looking at more than 15 places in a day. He was very good at getting leads on places that had what we were looking for, and was honest about things that we might regret later (like a bad neighborhood, or structural damage). In the end, he came through big time, and found us our dream home. He was with us throughout the entire process, working closely with our mortgage officer and the listing agent, and met us at the house for all of the inspections and walkthroughs. We closed a week ago yesterday, and are still amazed at how fortunate we were to find Dublin. "

- Joe B.

" The professionalism and responsiveness of Maggie and her team made the selling process once of the smoothest I have experienced. Listing to closing Maggie provided provided continuous updates allowing for the highest visibility of my timeline horizon. Ultimately, this process transparency let me plan my move with astonishing accuracy. Beyond her sharp acumen for the industry, Maggie was pleasure to work with and easy to talk to. If you are looking for a real estate professional that hits all the marks, I have and will continue to recommend Maggie Knight. "

- Nicholas Garcia

" If you are looking for an honest, responsible, and outstanding realtor, I would highly recommend Maggie. If you are ready to buy, or just thinking about purchasing a home, I would recommend that you give Maggie a call. She is not like your typical high pressured realtor that simply wants to put you into any home for a commision. She takes the time to understand what you like, and if your future dream home is within your budget! I was a very uncertain and skeptical homebuyer and Maggie instilled confidence in my ability to purchase my beautiful home. She walked me through the process step by step. I gained an overwhelmingly high trust and I am now settled in my unbelievable home! To put a cherry on the top of my home buying experience, she left a beautiful gift on the counter when I walked into my new home. I was delighted to find a beautifully engraved cutting board with my name on it, and a nice bottle of champagne in a cute basket. Needless to say, I truly believe in Maggie and I recommend her at the highest level without reservation! You will find your dream home with Maggie! Give her a call now! "

- Joanne Culverhouse

" Both my husband and I would use Nicole Hinkle again in a heartbeat for either selling or buying real estate. When we started we had seriously considered selling our home ourselves. Several people (including an escrow company) said it was simple to do and would save us a lot of money. We also considered using a company like Redfin and others because they offered low points to sell your home. After meeting with several agents and representatives from these other companies we started feeling uneasy about going the cheap route. They just didn’t make us feel comfortable about listing our home and getting it marketed like Nicole did. Nicole has such a positive, upbeat personality and we liked everything she had to say about helping us sell our home. Of course we wanted to list our home for a high price but Nicole suggested we start out just a little lower and see what the market would do. Within 1 week we had 6 offers on our home. We negotiated and settled on a buyer and thought well that is the end of that, our home has sold and now we just wait for everything to close. Little did we realize that is when the real work of a realtor begins. With a very short escrow there were numerous things that came up that she had to act on and ALWAYS kept us informed. She handled the process of selling our home (that we loved for many years) with the up most professionalism and understanding (cutting the ties to your home can be hard). Both my husband and I would recommend Nicole in a heartbeat (either selling or buying). We have one more home to sell in the future for a family member and will definitely have Nicole assist us with that sale. You won’t go wrong with Nicole. "

- L. Durham

" Maggie and Jeannie did a great job navigating the process communicating next steps, advice, and support. Never had to pull information from them as they pushed it to me. Would highly recommend dream team of Maggie and Jeannie. "

- Tom Ashcraft

" Maggie is a wonderful agent. Smart, savvy and professional, I could not have made this life changing journey without her. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. She really is the best. "

- Laurie Potter

" Maggie was on the ball. Any questions were answered clearly and promptly. Throughout the whole process my husband and I felt confident that we were getting the best advice and in turn the best value. "

- Julie Somers

" I just purchased my second home with Maggie Knight! I cannot imagine working with a more skilled, compassionate, and caring Realtor. I purchased my first home with Maggie two years ago and used her again to sell my home and purchase an upgraded condominium in my same unit. Thanks to her focus and tenacity, My unit sold in seven days. Maggie actually came to my home on a Saturday morning and spent several hours assisting me through the process. Thank you for being a remarkable realtor Maggie! You are truly a rock star! "

- Joanne Culverhouse

" The house that I had to sell was my mother's house after she had passed away. I had never sold a house before, and my decision came down to two realtors. I decided to give Brett Martin a chance and he knocked it out of the park! Not only did he make the ENTIRE process a very smooth transition, but he kept in very good contact with me and made sure that I understood everything that was going on. He was very patient and understanding that I had no idea what I was doing, and made sure to explain everything and answered all of my questions. Anything that I needed done, he got it done and then more. His negotiation skills are top notch. Brett Martin did an exceptional job at selling my mother's house and I will use him again if I need a realtor in the Orange County/LA County area! "

- Christina Z.

" I was honored to receive a referral from Maggie for a couple that was selling their home here in Las Vegas and purchasing a home with Maggie in Southern California. Maggie was able to win a multiple offer negotiation for our VA buyers and they successfully closed on their home! Then the pressure was on for me to get their home listed and sold quickly here in Las Vegas so they weren't paying double mortgages and I was able to do so. This transaction was over a year in the making before our clients were ready to make the move. Maggie assisted me with keeping our clients motivated throughout the process and of course keeping me informed of any updates on the buying side! I can call Maggie and she's available anytime with one of the friendliest personalities I've had the pleasure of working with! I look forward to working with her again! "

- Katarina Harris

" Me and my husband are looking for our very first house. We've been going to open houses and the number one question of the selling agent is "Do you have an agent?", or sometimes "You can only see this house if you have an appointment or an agent." This is the time when we decided that we have to get an agent. It was January 30, 2020 when me and my sister attended a free workshop at Long Beach and this is where we met Jolie Koblin. During this time, we do not have our agent yet and we are still in the process of knowing if we could get a house or not. After being pre-approved, by our lender, she suggested to contact an agent as soon to help us start looking for houses. She gave us Jolie's card and told us talk to her first. We never looked for another agent... March 1st when me and my husband met with Jolie at her office, we clicked! And there it is, everything started from there. I even requested from her if she can find us a home on or before Easter Sunday, and that was an aggressive request...We just laugh about it. She found us some houses that we described to her during our meeting. We are scheduled on weekends due to our availability and most of the open houses are scheduled Saturdays and Sundays anyway. March 7th, it was a fun house hunting the first day with her. She was well-organized specially on the path on which house comes first. If I remember it right, we went to at least 4-5 houses in one day because the sequence arrangement and how far and close the places are to each other, it was well-setup. It is really better to find an agent to help you out on asking questions about the house. So while we are looking for the house and how it was, Jolie is chatting with the seller's agent to see what are the ups and downs on the house. Or what is the history and special about it. Questions that we will never think of asking, such as the solar panel installed in a house, etc. It is nice of her to let us know right away whats good about the house that we are looking for. And actually, that is the first time we felt that the agents are looking at us as serious buyers and not just some people looking at open houses. Jolie is very professional and dedicated. With all these story, what Jolie did for me and my husband is very special. Jolie closed our very first home. Remember I mentioned above about how aggressive the request on when to find our home, it was April 16th when finally we received our home key! This is in the middle of this Covid-19 struggles and home quarantine. With the help of the seller's agent, Jolie's team, and the lender and lender's team, we got our home. Jolie did not leave us hanging even though we almost gave up. She was willing to help, anytime and all the time. Jolie found as our home, not on Easter Sunday, but 4 days after which is still a very short duration. That's how good she is. I believe that the people you meet in your lifetime are meant to be met because they will be part of your story. And Jolie Koblin will always be part of our book. We will never forget her. She's very helpful and fun to work with. She is really really nice. We still owe her a celebration due to social-distancing but we are very thankful of having her took care of us on this journey. Me and my husband are proudly recommending Jolie Koblin. Let her provide you the support as an agent, whether you're selling or buying your house, beyond your expectation. Thank you again Jolie!!! :) "

- Crislie T.

" We contacted Maggie via email, as out of town buyers, to help us locate a vacation condo. She was extremely prompt in responding to us and setting up a virtual meeting. She listened to our wishes and then provided us with the current state of the real estate market and immediately made us feel confident about choosing to work with her. Right thereafter, she began to send us properties that matched our wish list. After choosing one we were particularly interested in, Maggie went personally to the property to give us a FaceTime tour of the condo and allowed us an opportunity to see the property without delay. After deciding this property was a perfect fit, she provided guidance for making an offer. Once our offer was accepted she provided prompt, daily updates and was instrumental in helping our lender to stay on track with the closing timeline. Overall she was exceedingly competent, personable, and professional and we would recommend her without reservation to anyone looking to enter the Long Beach real estate market. "

- Melissa Mitchell

" We had a fantastic experience with Maggie! She helped us find our dream condo near the beach in Long Beach within 2 days of searching. She looked after us every step of the way and we closed within 30 days. I highly recommend her for your real estate needs. "

- Judy Lewis

" We truly believe we were able to secure our dream home in a super competitive market because we had Maggie leading the way. I appreciate how much she listens to her buyers and helps them make tough calls in tight timelines. Not only was her strategy and approach spot on, but she made the process enjoyable and fun... thank goodness! "

- Katie Sanson Leahy

" Our experience with Maggie was outstanding and much appreciated . Her knowledge of how to market the property to buyers is unbelievable and truly impressive. We had a tremendous amount of buyers looking on line at our property daily. The house sold quickly with more than one offer. Maggie has a wonderful presence with her clients and prospective buyers. She is a hard worker and after using her she is now my friend. Judy and Gary Cooper "

- Brad Cooper

" I was referred to Cynthia by another realtor. She ended up being one of the most valuable assets in my corner when it came to purchasing a house. Very communicative and prompt. Always available. If you have a question about something but you're not sure if Cynthia would know the answer, ask her anyway. She probably knows. People say realtors will be replaced by computers one day, but a computer will never replace a top realtor who can go above and beyond. She has a huge breadth of knowledge, experience, and connections, and has great people skills when it comes to all the other people involved in buying a home. I have already recommended her to one of my colleagues. Socal is a tough market and Cynthia intuitively understands how to navigate this. "

- Jennifer Chen

" Nicole is an excellent realtor. She is very professional and takes very good care of her clients. She listens to you and provides you with the properties your looking to purchase. She was my realtor on the sale of two properties and the purchase of a property. She is extremely knowledgeable about real estate. She is very patient and will find you the home your looking for. I highly recommend her to help you find your dream home. "

- K. Tsio

" Nicole helped me find the house of my dreams! Never once did she push me or make me feel uncomfortable which was great being that buying a house is stressful enough. She also helped me sell my condo with a short escrow with in the same month which was awesome!! I highly recommend her as your agent. She’s always on top of it and gets back to you fast with any questions. "

- A.

" Sarah Helped me sell my old house and buy anew one in one pleasant and seamless process. She knows the area intimately and is fantastic to work with. "

- Kenny Kwong

" Maggie is obviously a rising star in the Long Beach residential real estate community. Her attention to detail along with her ability to keep us on task throughout the entire buying process was so reassuring. Her smile and calm demeanor make our home acquisition a fun and enjoyable experience and we will certainly recommend her to anyone we come in contact with when it comes to buying or selling a home in this general vicinity. We are a proud SoCal homeowner thanks to Maggie! "

- Robert Foster

" “I first got to know Julie when we worked together at DIRECTV in El Segundo. I was always impressed with her kindness, professionalism and the level of effort and engagement she put into her work and her relationships. It does not surprise me that she has been able to take these skills and apply them to real estate. As a property owner in Long Beach, she has been my go-to person to understand what is going on in the area - she is a wealth of knowledge. In this day and age it is hard to know who you can trust, and I would trust Julie with any real estate transaction. If you are lucky enough to be a buyer or seller, she would be a great partner for you!” "

- Stacey Heffner

" This is the third time I've bought and sold a house and working with Maggie was by far the most pleasurable experience I've had. Maggie was incredibly knowledgable of the local market. Because of this, she helped me set a good and fair asking price. We sold the property quickly and without any hassle. During escrow, Maggie was extremely responsive to my questions and concerns. She also was on top of every detail and had tremendous follow through. I felt comforted and assured through out the entire process. Maggie is also very personable. She's professional, friendly, positive and calm. She made what can often be a trying experience simple and low stress. I couldn't recommend Maggie highly enough and will surely use her for any future real estate transactions. "

- Katie Leff

" Jolie makes your life easier and goes the EXTRA mile in your home search. She is always willing to jump to action when a house pops on the market. Gives her realistic opinion on options and helps make her clients feel important. I can not say enough about working with Jolie! "

- Deborah C.

" I can't say enough good things about Linda. Selling my home after my mom passed away was very stressful, but Linda helped me through the process. I worked long hours, and she was very accommodating to my schedule and was patient with me. She sold my first home and helped me purchase 2 other homes. She took time to listen to my needs, and went above and beyond. "

- Tammy

" I highly recommend Russ Quackenbush. I am a first time buyer, knew very little about the area, and had very specific requirements for the home I wanted to purchase. Russ listened to my needs and was able to find me what I wanted. Then, he went above and beyond, and helped me along every step of the complicated and confusing (to me) process that is escrow. He stood up for me when I needed (sometimes I didn't even know I needed it). Russ even helped me find contractors. I really appreciate how Russ was a constant presence, taking the time to answer my many questions. I really, really do recommend him wholeheartedly. "

- Kozameh

" If you want to win, you need Maggie on your side! After selling our home with Maggie, we took a few months off before jumping into something new. When we re-started our search, the market had changed and I'm so glad we had Maggie on our side. Quick, thorough, dedicated and professional, she really helped keep our spirits up and made it fun The moment we saw our new home, we knew it was the one and said "Maggie, we want to win". We love our new home - it has everything we wanted and we loved working with Maggie. If you want to win, you want Maggie on your side. Thank you Maggie! "

- Katherine and Kevin

" Thank you for your professional service! The sale of the condo was fair and successful. We know you put a lot of effort to work with the buyer. We really appreciate that. Hope our paths cross again in the future. Best wishes for you and your business! "

- Johnny & Susan

" My wife and I put our house on the market, for sale by owner. Althought we had many lookers we didn't have any serious offers. Then Maggie called with a client that was serious about Bixby Village housing. We agreed to terms with Maggie and she brought her clients to view our property. Within an hour we had an acceptable offer and the rest is history. Maggie was extremely personable with a wonderful sense of humor but more than that her professionalism shined throughout the entire transaction. She worked tirelessly to complete the necessary paperwork and guide us through the closing and escrow process. Give her a chance and you'll understand why I recommend her. "

- Joe Steele

" Great to work with. Always supportive. Smooth transition. Very knowledgeable with the surrounding areas. Helped me out a great deal. I couldn't have sold my place without her especially not as quickly. "

- Rich Clausen

" Linda helped me purchase my very first home and was such a pleasure to work with. She was always available to view listings, quickly provided offers for the homes we were interested in, and helped us with the entire escrow process all the way to close. Linda is very professional, communicates clearly, and is a great resource when it comes to the overall process of home buying. We would highly recommend Linda for anyone looking for their dream home! "

- Michael

" Very knowledgeable, reliable, friendly and a pleasure to work with. Always there when we needed her, 10 am or 10pm she was always available. Always honest and never sugar coated anything. "

- N. Omar

" To begin, special THANKS to my agent, Simone McCormick, for her patience above all else. I was a tough client with some very specific requirements, including affordability, location, and more. The other challenge I presented to Simone was I've been living in Vermont and looking from afar. Over the last couple years I regularly visited Long Beach to look at condos, and Simone would arrange showings of what I wanted to see. Before I showed up she would always investigate my questions in advance. I could only afford an entry level unit. Nonetheless, Simone treated me as if I were purchasing a high end mansion - with great respect and dignity. During the last year she made some offers on my behalf that did not work out. But she did not give up on me! From Vermont I called and emailed Simone regularly to inquire about condos I saw on the MLS. She was so patient and professional with all my inquiries. Because Simone never gave up on me, I finally found my dream condo - walking distance to Downtown Long Beach and the sandy beach! She stayed steps ahead of the entire escrow process, keeping me informed of what was coming next, and she fought for my interest when the seller's agent became pushy. "

- Benjamin L.

" Maggie has many strengths, but I must say the one that impressed me the most was her communication skills--she consistently kept us abreast of ALL that was happening during our transaction. Never before have we had a Realtor take the time to update us at every turn! Thank you, Maggie! "

- Lesa Barker

" I would without a doubt recommend Maggie Knight, I have known Maggie for quite awhile and was surprised when my husband called her to look at houses. My husband can be difficult but Maggie without skipping a beat was on it. Always answered our questions and made sure we were comfortable every step of the way. She helped us find a lender, the people she chooses to work with are just as amazing I don't think she will settle for less! Honestly We talked about moving for the last 10 years but were to scared! now 40 days later I can't wait to move in to my new home and make new memories!!! "

- Adelina & Alex Calleros

" Dublin did an outstanding job during the purchase of my properties. I first used the Wahlberg group to purchase my condo (I am a repeat customer). Dublin was attentive to the details of the purchase and kept both the seller and me aware of what was happening. When necessary, he contacted the loan officer as well, to keep the purchase moving forward. VERY professional, and made the transaction smooth. "

- Denis Y.

" Maggie was INCREDIBLE to have as our real estate agent. She was very creative (despite the challenging market of low inventory) to help us stand out as buyers, she was persistent in finding us the perfect home, knowledgeable about the various neighborhoods for us to consider, and just an overall joy to work with throughout the home buying process. Despite facing multiple challenges with finding a move-in ready 3+bd/2ba within our budget during a time of limited inventory, she ended up finding us just THE perfect home for our growing family which checked off all of our specific boxes that we were looking for. We couldn't ask for a better real estate agent throughout the home buying process, and feel extremely lucky to have worked with Maggie Knight as our agent. "

- Dan Cox

" Maggie was exactly the referral agent I needed. I had a pair of buyers moving from Northern California to Maggie's area and needed a seasoned realtor that would be a great support for a family relocating to a place with which they were fairly unfamiliar. Maggie was quick, responsive, friendly, personable, helpful, thorough, determined and persistent. Maggie's dedication helped them find the perfect home. Maggie is amazing and I welcome the opportunity to recommend Maggie. "

- Jamie Ennis

" Linda was a great help when my wife and I were searching for a rental. She was always quick to respond to our queries. When we moved in and found a few problems with the house, Linda promptly notified the owners and ensured everything was fixed right away. She also took the initiative to properly record any pre-existing damage in the house. "

- Miguel Guzman

" Dublin is a real estate ninja! We had the monstrous task of finding and closing on a home in 120 days. Dublin went above and beyond, visiting properties with us near every day, advising us on nuances of each property we wouldn't have spotted, and ultimately managing a very unresponsive seller's agent to make sure we closed on time and that our interests were protected. 10/10 experience. I would absolutely recommend The Wahlberg Group to anyone who is looking for a real estate group to work with. "

- Shannon D.

" If you're looking for top service in your property search, look no further, Maggie is it! Without a doubt she surpasses top level service. Professional, knowledgeable, personable, and supportive. She goes the extra mile to ensure your goals are met. She truly cares about people, and the results for all involved which makes a significant a difference when making a property investment. Thank you Maggie, you're the best! "

- Tiffany S.

" Dublin Wahlberg, Jenn and the entire staff of the Wahlberg Group and Maria and Elsie at Pacific Estates Escrow did a tremendous, professional and timely sale of my property. Towards the end we hit done snags with my Incompetent HOA, but Dublin and his people handled it with true professionalism. I've dealt with many different realtors and escrow companies over the past 20 years I've been doing real estate. I can say with confidence, if you're looking for a team of professionals who can get the job done, even when curve and screw balls are thrown, this is the team you want to have in your corner. Thanks so much, "

" She is an amazing realtor anyone could ever ask for. With the market being so dynamic, it took me over a year to get my offer accepted, but she never gave up, always supporting me in any situation. I would like to thank her for everything and am definitely going to call her up if I decide to purchase another property or sell the current one. "

" I was lucky enough to meet Maggie and Jeanie on my journey to find a home within a 30day period These ladies are the BEST Both have gone out of their way to make sure that all requirements were met and within my price range. Within a couple of days and many properties, my new home was in escrow. we were well on our way making sure all deadlines were met to insure closure within the 30 days. I highly recommend these ladies if you prefer the handling of this moment very professional and many good times along the way Great sense of humor "

" It was a pleasure working with Maggie. She made things so easy for us. She is considerate and very professional. We are very happy with her, and I will definitely use her again in the future. "

- Susan Wang

" When I first met Sarah Vogel about selling an apartment building in Long Beach, she said, “I will make it easy for you,” and she certainly did. Sarah’s experience, knowledge of the local market, and her ability to effectively negotiate led to a one-week listing and sale with a 21-day escrow. Additionally, Sarah was responsive to all my questions and concerns and made sure I was well informed every step of the way. Most importantly, I really enjoyed working with Sarah and felt comfortable throughout the entire process. "

" I am writing this glowing review to express my gratitude for the exceptional service provided Russ. As a family of first-time home buyers, We were initially overwhelmed by the process, but Russ made it a seamless and enjoyable experience. He listened to our needs and preferences, provided valuable insights, and helped us find the perfect home for our family. What first drew me to Russ was his enthusiasm and understanding of the intricacies of buying a home. We were working with another agent at first, but Russ quickly and convincingly lured us into working with him with his honest attitude and terrific work ethic. Russ truly went above and beyond to ensure that everything ran smoothly. He was always available to answer my questions, provide guidance and support, and was patient in explaining the ins and outs of the market, especially during the hectic time in which we were trying to buy. His extensive knowledge of the local area was also invaluable in helping us make informed decisions and make the right decisions for our budget and desired location. I appreciated His honesty, integrity and the dedication towards helping us find our new home. He truly made the process of buying my first family home stress-free and enjoyable. I would highly recommend Russ to anyone looking for a professional, attentive and dedicated real estate agent. He is truly the best in the business and I am so grateful for his help in making my family’s dream of owning a home come true. "

" My Dream Home! Israel went above and beyond helping us find our dream home for me and my family. His knowledge into today's real estate market is superb and made everything work out for the best when we didn't think we would ever own. "

- Rachel B.

" Maggie is a gem. She will make sure your experience with her is smooth and seamless. I appreciated her honest opinion, recommendations & having her own personal resources to expedite the process even more. Thank you again Maggie for welcoming me officially. "

" Maggie was my first and only choice when I began the search for my new home in Long Beach. She is the best and I have no hesitation in recommending her. "

- Robert Dawson

" This Yelp review is for Simone McCormick. I truly believe that my wife and I lucked out and got the best person we possibly could to help with our first home purchase. From day one, Simone made sure we understood how the buying process goes, and was there with us every step of the way. From the first meeting, over coffee, to her being there when we opened Escrow, we couldn't have asked for a better agent to represent us. I think we must have looked at almost 80 different proprieties, and there was never a hesitation from Simone to look at more to ensure we found our perfect home. Coming from a sales background, I can appreciate Simone's style. She truly connects with her clients, and we joke that we are going to be sad that we won't get to talk everyday once we close Escrow. We are so thankful for everything Simone has done for us! We make sure to have stacks of her cards with us at all times to pass along to all of our friends and family! Simone, thank you so much for everything. You made what we through would be a very scary, stressful, and hard process easier than we could have ever imagined. Anyone that is looking for a Real Estate agent, STOP YOUR SEARCH NOW AND CALL SIMONE. I PROMISE IT WILL BE THE BEST DECISION YOU COULD MAKE! "

- Jason K.

" Coralyn and Dublin did an outstanding job marketing and selling our oceanfront condo. Although my background was finance and real estate I needed someone who was current on today's processes to guide us through the sale. These folks are professional and never pushed for any decision from us. Instead, they presented what they found based on the current market and let us make our own decisions as to asking price, marketing (open houses or not, etc.) and whether or not to accept or counter an offer. We were out of state sellers and we always felt our property was cared for throughout the process. They earned our trust and we would recommend this team to anyone seeking to buy or sell property. "

- Wil K.

" Our journey started with following @longbeachhomesforsale on Instagram. A whole year later (thanks to the pandemmic and my fears) we finally linked with @the_knight_group and we made our way back to CA. Words cannot express the appreciation we have for Maggie and The Knight Group! Truly she makes you feel like Ohana and does what Ohana does and fights for you in this crazy market. We love you Maggie and thank you for everything you've done. xo "

" Sara helped me sell my place and help me found a nice townhouse in the location that I really wanted. She’s very helpful and the process was very smooth. She’s a great agent and very helpful. I highly recommend her! "

- Laura A- Bell Gardens, CA

" KJ has helped us buy our first home and then sell and now buy our second. I came into the home buying/selling process completely clueless and thanks to KJ, feel informed and empowered that everything resulted in the best possible outcome. We sold our home with one day of COVID safe showing above asking and then bought our dream home beating out 21 other offers so I think that alone speaks to KJ's greatness. KJ is super responsive, in great contact with other agents, and knows the ins and outs of the process to get her clients the best result. After seeing how other agents work throughout the buying/selling process, it really became clear how AMAZING KJ is compared to other agents. I never felt in the dark or confused at what was happening. I'm definitely guilty of getting home buying jitters and nerves and KJ is able to restore your faith in the whole process and have you feel confident you'll end up in the right home. Truly no better agent around than KJ!! "

- Carissa

" Maggie is an amazing Realtor. She was helpful, knowledgeable and patient in guiding me through the entire process. I would highly recommend her to anyone interested in buying or selling a property. "

- Jesica Schooler

" If you're looking for the best agent out there, look no further! This was my first home buying experience, and KJ made the process so easy and smooth. I didn't know what to expect, but KJ walked me through each step and explained everything. She was very responsive to all of my questions and concerns and made me feel at ease. You will not be disappointed! "

- Corinne

" Buying a house is scary, overwhelming, and frustrating - BUT Maggie is THE BEST! If you're a first-time home buyer (like me) or someone who has bought before (like my wife) Maggie knows how to explain things as simply as possible. She made the process as organized, least-stressful, and smooth as it could have been. I needed a lot more explanation, whereas my wife needed more of the big-picture information and Maggie was fantastic at keeping us up-to-date throughout the entire process. We live in Long Beach and wanted a house in Long Beach, and she knew all the in's and out's of the area which was so helpful. She was always available, responded quickly to any questions we had, and gave us great advice about the different steps of the process. She's kind, compassionate, and one of the most wonderful people I've ever met. I'm so grateful we worked with her and if we're ever buying/selling in the future, she'll be our go-to! "

- Sunitha Menon

" Jolie helped us buy our first home after looking for years with other agents. She communicated with us every day during the process and explained every step. We had lots of questions and were short on time. She worked around our crazy schedule and put us at ease. We definitely recommend Jolie if you need a realtor. Doris and Julio "

- Doris M.

" In 2018 Maggie sold my grandparents’ house in Naples Long Beach. I was in charge of leaving the keys for the new owners and we had briefly exchanged messages at the time. 3 years later, still living in France I decided the next move was to purchase a condo in Long Beach. I started looking on Redfin, and July 13, as I woke up Maggie’s name popped back in my mind and I immediately texted her from France to let her know my plans. She responded immediately remembering who I was which already amazed me! Exactly 5 weeks later I am the owner of an incredible condo in Bluff Park Long Beach. Contacting Maggie was the BEST MOVE EVER! Not only was she super responsive to all my messages and questions but she also took so much time to explain how everything worked here! She supported me in all my decisions while guiding me into the wisest choices! She set up twelve condo visits in 4 weeks, and while I felt apologetic for wanting to see so many places she always greeted this with great enthusiasm. She also was very proactive in investigating HOA Rules and Regulations which I could have never done on my own! When we finally found THE ONE, Maggie jumped on the tiger and took control of the situation! Her insight, intuition and great knowledge of the market made us win the bid and the rest is history!! Maggie was with me every step of the way and if everything was such a success and went so smoothly it’s definitely thanks to her!! Mille Merci Maggie!!! "

- Isis Augier

" Maggie was exactly the referral agent I needed. I had a pair of buyers moving from Northern California to Maggie's area and needed a seasoned realtor that would be a great support for a family relocating to a place with which they were fairly unfamiliar. Maggie was quick, responsive, friendly, personable, helpful, thorough, determined and persistent. Maggie's dedication helped them find the perfect home. Maggie is amazing and I welcome the opportunity to recommend Maggie. "

- Jamie Ennis

" Working with Terri was an absolute pleasure. We had never sold a home before and were completely lost. Terri's attitude was " NO Problem, I'll take care of it" was a blessing, Terri handled everything. She is informative, professional, organized and very easy to work with. Terri has her clients best interest at heart. I would recommend Terri to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Thank you Terri! "

- Jim Caslin

" Maggie Knight was a pleasure to work with. Very professional, & enjoyable agent to have that was always on top of things & following up for us whenever she could, regardless of whoever she had to contact or look up to reach out to. She was with us at the beginning of our journey of searching for a New-Build home within the masterplanned community of Ontario Ranch, & she stuck with us hard & fought for us throughout the entire time. Whether if it was assisting us in acquiring a lot during multiple builder's Phase Releases or if it was during Closing Escrow time, we wouldn't of wanted to have anyone else by our side. Thank you for helping us find, build, & close the deal on our very own first Home Maggie. Alyssa & I appreciate all of your outstanding services & efforts. "

- Teddy Allen & Alyssa Mae

" Nicole made the whole home buying process a breeze. We never felt rushed to make an offer during the whole process until we found the right home for us. We looked at a lot of properties but she never lost hope we’d find the home of our dreams. She was very helpful throughout every step. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. "

- J. Ngo

" I have worked with Jolie in the purchasing of a home for a young couple. She is very professional, paid close attention to the details, and knew what it would take to close the transaction. I would recommend Jolie in the purchase or selling of a home. "

- Charlie Nicholas

" Maggie Knight is a Super Star! Maggie was my realtor who was by my side every step of the way during my hunt and subsequent purchase of my new home! I had a list of specific requirements and she supported me by paying attention to my needs and even validating them. She seemed genuinely interested in my perspective. I was very comfortable with Maggie; her personality and energy won me over. I felt that she worked hard to get to know me in an effort to understand my needs and wishes and she made them a top priority. She was responsive to texts and on time for all our appointments. Jeannie Jones is a member of the Knight Group and they worked together to help me close the deal with the seller. I felt that they both put in a lot of effort to support my interests during negotiations. Jeannie's years in the field and her network of associates were a definite plus because of the trust she had built with the selling agent. I highly recommend the Knight Group if you are looking for a team to represent your interests with integrity, energy, and results. #HappyBuyer #GoMaggie "

- Sharon Hill

" Jolie is an awesome person to work with. She has the endurance and positivity to support anyone through the rigors and emotional pitfalls of house hunting and really works hard to understand what her clients want and need. More importantly, she possesses amazing real estate savvy and excellent people skills critical to working with other agents in negotiating and closing a sale. My husband I worked with her and her co-agent, Charlie Nichols, from early March of this year - and closed on our first home on May 27th. Thanks to her commitment, attention to detail, and follow through we were able to have our offer accepted, negotiations agreed, and sale finalized in less than thirty days. And this was working through the restrictions of a pandemic! If you are looking for someone who is down to earth, supportive, and really knows the real estate business, then Jolie is your person. "

- Sarah P.

" Working with Jolie was a truly amazing. I met Jolie, at an open house, a few years ago when I popped in to see a unique live/work condo. She was really nice and asked the dreaded question... "are you working with an agent?" To my surprise, she was not pushy or overly aggressive, which is a huge red flag to me. We chatted, I took her business card and followed up with her a few months later. She recommended I attend a first time home buyers information class because I was terrified of the home buying process and COMMITTMENT. She assured me the class would be very informative and should answer any questions that I had. I attended the class, but didn't take any further action. Two years later, 2021, I reached out to Jolie and the Mortgage Broker to start the process again, but with certainty. Jolie pulled out her previous notes from three years ago and updated them. She selected several homes that were worth touring and within 2 months I had selected a home and closed escrow. I cannot say enough wonderful things about working with Jolie. She remained in constant communication with me, daily, she truly made this process easy and helped me find my starter home. "

- Sadine S.

" Nicole was great to work with, and always trying to find ways to help us. She offered to connect us with lenders, designers, contractors, movers and more. The definition of a full-service realtor to me! Additionally, she was very knowledgeable, and if she wasn't sure on a specific question I had, she wasn't afraid to seek the answers elsewhere. Nicole is a genuine person who cares about our success, not a salesperson looking for a payday. Thanks, Nicole! "

- Z.

" So excited to be returning to CA! Thank you, thank you, thank you Maggie, for finding the perfect home and executing the sale with ease. Your professionalism from start to finish was top-notch. Could not have done it without you! "

- Sue Landauer

" An amazing and Stellar team all the way around!!! I've never had such a joyful experience selling/buying a home! My last 3 experiences were nightmares! I just figured that's how it always goes. Maggie and Shaylie showed me how wrong I was. I can't wait to make my new home just as beautiful and have you all over for a famous Anjlart Homemade Greek Feast! Thank you again and again! "

- Anjlart

" Nicole holds your hand through the whole stressful real estate process. However, that is not what I find amazing about her. I have been investing in income properties since 1976. Most realtors are there for the deal. Once the deal is done, it is done. Nicole has continued to be there for me once the deal closed. I had at least two incidences when I was out of town and needed help. I called Nicole, and she did not hesitate to help me. She took care of everything so that I could relax and my tenants were treated kindly. Currently, she is looking for another property for me. I would not hesitate to recommend her to a friend or relative. "

- L. Rosental

" Maggie is the best!! She made home buying a breeze. She helped my husband and I find our first home. She was always available for any viewing, text or phone call and are response time is incredible. She has a great team or people she recommends around her to make sure offers, mortgages and paper work are all done in a really timely manner. We closed on 21 days on our house!! It was so fast and efficient. Couldn't recommend her more! Thank you Knight Group! "

- Rosie Butler

" Maggie is swell!! I think I can pinpoint the moment I knew she was the best agent we could ask for in Southern California! My husband and I were somewhat interested in a house, but it definitely wasn’t “the one”…we were just in that frustrating “just pick one, settle, and move already!” stage of house shopping. Maggie basically told us that she’ll support and help us however we needed, but that she would really like to find us a house that we love. That sense of loving professionalism is what she’s all about-she’s not just working….she cares about people! We were a pretty picky family and changed our mind a lot, and Maggie was incredibly patient and accommodating throughout it all. She made so much time for us and helped us find a GREAT house that we are so excited to make into our home. We really couldn’t have done it without her! Simply put, Maggie is the best! "

- Lesley and Ryan Parcher

" Nicole was hard working and energetic. She kept me well informed every step of the process. I felt she worked in my best interest while maintaining a high level of ethics and honesty. "

- L. Gadge

" Maggie was just terrific, from start to finish. I was selling my house and buying a new place, and she walked me through the whole process with a great sense of humor, positive energy, and honesty. One key point that made a difference, she really excelled at the marketing process to sell my house. We had a great showing at our open houses, and got really good offers. Proof of her excellence? $50,000 over the asking price! She did a great job for me, and I am sure she will for any of you. Maggie and her team are terrific. "

- Laurie Potter

" Cynthia is simply OUTSTANDING! Stress-free and dependable experience. She’s been there every step of the way for me, from viewing the homes I’m interested in to finding the best mortgage broker, to inspections, to making the right contacts to ensure I’m knowledgeable about the house I’m buying, and to finding the right specialists who can help with my concerns. I absolutely wouldn’t know what I’d do without her. Also, she’s HONEST and full of great advice. Considering I’ve gone through this process for buying my first home, this time around with buying my vacation home I can’t believe how much better it could have been if I’ve found someone like Cynthia to purchase my first home. I definitely will recommend her to anyone who needs to buy a house. "

- Diana Tran

" I can't think of anything that could have happened to make this experience better. Maggie was incredibly professional, self sufficient, and supportive during this whole process to the point I would consistently forget we were even selling our house. She worked out all the necessary details and appointments with our tenant to make the entire selling process smooth and basically invisible to us. We knew when we bought our last house that Maggie was our realtor for life and this just cemented that fact to us. We appreciate you Maggie and can't wait to work together again soon! "

- Ryan Leahy

" I don't think my husband and I would have found our dream place if it wasn't for Dublin and Coralyn ( son and mom duo). We are a younger couple who have always dreamed of living in a metropolitan area, but because we are in our 20's, we were limited to what we could purchase. We saw that Dublin had a listing on redfin and decided to call him up, and although the place was just outside of the area we wanted to be, he could tell our hearts weren't in it. He then compiled a whole list of properties and took us on a tour of Long Beach (he's very knowledgeable and will tell you all the best restaurants and hang out spots). After a few days of searching, we finally found a condo and went into escrow. It was more centrally located, but a bit smaller than what we wanted, even so, we thought that was it! But Dublin one uped us, he went above and beyond and found something even better! He's a great listener and knew our taste, he found a unit that was just about to hit the market, and was able to send in an offer for us before anyone else! We were ecstatic and pulled out of escrow from the precious condo and was able to go straight into escrow for the new unit. Coralyn then took over and stayed in constant contact with us, giving updates and answering questions at odd hours. Both are some of the most genuine people I have ever met, and you can tell they are well-loved and liked by everyone because of the many persons that came up to us to say hello while we were hunting for homes. Their names will be the first that comes to mind when recommending realtors! "

- Devin S.

" This was my 3rd real estate transaction with Maggie (purchase of an investment property which was a 1031 exchange), and she was stellar as always! Extremely professional, knowledgeable, caring, patient, and always accessible by phone, text, and email. The level of commitment she has to her clients is unparalleled, If you are hesitating on which real estate agent to go with, choose MAGGIE! You won't regret it! "

- Shana Prechtl

" Maggie came over the first time with confidence and positivity’that we were going to make our dreams come true. She was honest with us, kept us going through the rough changes in the economy. When we started to stress out and doubtful she had the right answers to turn us around. Motivational and great with communication. We always felt that she cared and we were important to her. She made our Dreams come True! Thank you so much! Words cannot say enough! We couldn’t have done it without her guidance and support. We would recommend her with no hesitation! Rick & Michele Rutkowski 09/2022 "

- Michele Rutkowski

" Above and beyond! Maggie's guidance and expertise are the reasons we are happy home owners in Long Beach. Maggie is an expert in the very tricky Long Beach Market. Her advice is sound and reliable. We were in our new home in less than 30 days! We were first introduced to Maggie when she helped our daughter buy her first home. I observed the calm and smart advice that helped my daughter and her husband get the home they chose. I knew when my husband I decided to purchase a home in Long Beach, that Maggie would be a perfect fit. Maggie worked hard and responded immediately to all my questions. Maggie has access to a great group of lenders and contacts for all the needs. Maggie looked at our requirements and sent us daily market updates. She helped us avoid the dreaded bidding war and we were thrilled to close on time and without any hiccups along the way. She really went above and beyond making sure we were taken care of every step of the way. I am so grateful for her expertise and knowledge! Our experience with Maggie was exceptional. I highly recommend her for any real estate needs you may have. "

- Michele Stewart

" What a world wind! We told Maggie we were ready to put our house on the market and needed to sell FAST, since we were moving cross country in a month! And man did she deliver. From start to finish she partially staged our house to perfection with help from her amazing network, did full photo /video/ Instagram and print marketing, listed, set up showings, an open house weekend and ultimately got us 8 over asking offers in the first week!! We accepted and closed with an offer at $151,000 over asking!!!!! And to top it off, with a only 15 day escrow that allowed us to leave the state with the money in our pockets, ready for our new home purchase! But she didn’t stop there, after we left there were a couple of things that needed tidying up at the house and she told us not to worry, she’d take care of it and ensure all was ready for the new owners. Aside from the stellar outcome of our sale, Maggie’s kindness, hardwork and overall passion for prioritizing her clients best interests at alll stages blew us away. We are so incredibly greatful to have worked with her and wouldn’t work with anyone else in CA. Looking forward to our family and friends buying and selling with her in the near and far future. Thank you Maggie! You’re truely the best! "

- Ava Brannon

" KJ is simply the BEST! Being fairly new to Long Beach and a first time home buyer, KJ was both educational and patient with me. Not only is she an amazing agent, but she is smart and genuine and definitely someone you want on your side. KJ helped us find the perfect home in under a month, thanks for her connections in Long Beach, and the entire escrow process was quick and easy. KJ was available 24/7 to answer any questions that I had and she made everything so easy for me. KJ was by far one of the best aspects throughout the entire process and I highly recommend working with her. Thank you again, KJ!! "

- Hayley L.

" Selling your home is a stressful endeavor and not always fun. Maggie took the stress out of the process, and made it a pleasant experience for me. She did this by knowing what to do, and doing it professionally. She was able to capture the feel of living in a downtown loft, and was able to convey it in her marketing. She communicated with me every Friday keeping me updated on not only my loft, the competition, and, the real estate market itself. When I was frustrated she listened, and offered suggestions. I cannot say enough about Maggie. Results oriented and a real estate pro! "

- Raymond Holdgrafer

" Buying a house with Maggie was a great experience from start to finish. I appreciated such thoughtful attention to all of my real estate expectations. From listening to my needs to explaining important documents to understanding the real estate market and the local region, Maggie was impeccable. It was refreshing to have sometime that truly understood the value of customer service; because of that, I would recommend Maggie to anyone. Everyone who is going through the process of buying a house, should have her on their side. "

- Jodi Bonk

" From the second my husband and I decided to start the house-buying process, Maggie was with us every step of the way. We needed a lot of guidance as first-time home buyers, and she provided that and then some. We had a lot of things that we were looking for in a first home, and she really went above and beyond to find properties that checked our boxes while also staying in budget. I could call/text her at any time of the day, she was always so great about following up on any and all properties we sent her way. She was so creative with different ways to submit offers so we stood out to sellers in an extremely competitive market. We are beyond happy with our home, and could not have bought it without Maggie's help and support. To top it off, she even planned a surprise party for us when we got the keys! We cannot recommend her enough!! "

- Emily & Danny Gutch

" The rental real estate market in DTLB moves super fast. Thank you Dublin for getting me such a nice flat on such short notice. Dublin is great to work with. He is easy going, transparent, and honest. If you need a rental this is the place to go. "

- Helen A.

" What can I say...Maggie is a rockstar! She handled our hairy purchase of our family home in Long Beach last year with poise and grace when all kinds of wrenches were thrown at us. Then rather unexpectedly we decided to purchase a vacation home/investment property in Palm Springs. We came across an amazing opportunity which required fast action, charm, a good business sense, and a great personality. It also required a few trips away from her home base in Long Beach to make the deal happen. Maggie did not disappoint. She even offered to drive us a couple of times. Maggie is always available by phone, text, or email. Her level of service as a real estate agent is exceptional. And if you happen to have little children, they will adore Maggie. She's like a baby and toddler whisperer! Maggie loves her job and loves people. I can't recommend Maggie enough. I'm proud to call her my agent and my friend. "

- Shana Prechtl

" Cynthia is simply OUTSTANDING! Stress-free and dependable experience.

I absolutely wouldn’t know what I’d do without her. Also, she’s HONEST and full of great advice. Considering I’ve gone through this process for buying my first home, this time around with buying my vacation home I can’t believe how much better it could have been if I’ve found someone like Cynthia to purchase my first home. I definitely will recommend her to anyone who needs to buy a house. "

- Diana Tran

" As everyone knows, purchasing a home is a time of mixed emotions. My husband and I experienced excitement, anxiousness, worry and sleeplessness. Purchasing a home is a BIG DEAL! You want someone who understands your needs, your financial situation, your expectations and someone you trust to have your best interest. Through our friends we met a Loan Officer. We started the process with him and used our previous Real Estate Agent. This was our second time purchasing a home. The first time went so smoothly that we figured we should go with our previous agent. Long story short, the information being given to us was confusing and false. I reached out to Eric at a stage where I was upset and wanting to give up. He introduced me, via the phone, to his wife, Sarah Schurz. Immediately I felt like she was listening to me, she understood my concerns and she was willing to help me even though I wasn’t her client at the time! The joke is Sarah talked me off the ledge and she really did! You are to essentially opening your life to a stranger and this person is to represent you. You want to make sure you are selecting the best person for the job! The connection with Sarah was unreal! It felt like we knew her for years! Sarah was available to us day and night, yes even late night. We would see a house online and in a moment’s notice she would setup the appointment for us to view the house! If we saw a place and the area wasn’t what we were looking for or some other matter that she knew wasn’t for us she would tell us. She looked out for us. She understood our needs and wants. She was honest with telling us the good, the bad and the ugly. After a few months of searching we found the perfect home! We couldn’t have got through this without her. She is honest, caring, knowledgeable and a great person. We consider her a forever friend. "

- Andrew and Melissa Pinon

" We would start with adding more stars to rate Maggie! She is amazingly amazing, beyond amazing! In one day she got us an appointment to tour 'our home to be' and by the second day she closed the deal! She has the perfect professional connections that make the process really smooth... a month later we are moved in! We love her! Marley, Naomi and Miguel "

- Naomi Tsuha

" Nicole has been our agent for over a year until we found the right home at the right time. She was never pushy or overly eager to make a sale. She walked us through the home buying experience by keeping us informed and ultimately recommended a responsive lender. Most importantly, Nicole demonstrated availability and resolution skills after the sale of the home. Find me another real estate agent that hires plumbing services to serve her clients. Nicole sees the job through, a quality not often seen. Highly recommend, you’ll be in good hands! Thanks Nicole. "

- B. Suenos

" Maggie went above and beyond during our entire home purchasing process. We are first time home buyers and had tons of questions and concerns but Maggie made us feel completely supported and comfortable through the whole process. We had extensive repairs that had to be done after the home inspection- every step of the way, Maggie was communicative, responsive and always had a positive attitude. Her expertise in her industry is truly unmatched. We can’t recommend Maggie enough! "

- John & Nala

" Sarah is an OUTSTANDING realtor, who goes above and beyond in every way. She guided me through the painstaking process of finding and purchasing my first home all in record time because the rental i lived in was being sold out from under me. Sarah is extremely observant and perceptive, and quickly came to appreciate the nuances of my taste, and could easily winnow down a long page of listings, to just the key homes that would be close to their target. I am pretty picky and Sarah patiently took me from home to home, all the while, remaining kind, calm, and accepting, no matter how many homes i summarily rejected out of hand as not options. She always made me feel hopeful that we'd find THE ONE, even when i was riddled with doubts and plagued by feelings of despair and hopelessness. I was also traveling a lot during this time and Sarah was "agent extraordinare" taking care of me, showing me listings online and setting up appointments for us to visit immediately upon my return. I could not have felt more supported personally and practically by Sarah! Once i found a home i wanted to buy, Sarah came to my house and spent hours with me, until late into the night, as we scrambled to submit a competitive offer on the ONLY house i wanted....Sarah was my right hand woman, guiding me every step of the way, helping me manage the stress and anxiety of the house buying process, through her calm, steady demeanor, solid advice, perceptiveness and compassion. My anxiety and stress did not end when my offer was accepted, but thanks to Sarah, she was the angel who guided me throughout the rest of the escrow process, helping me navigate the unknown and overwhelming tasks associated with the escrow and purchasing processes. Sarah is truly outstanding...she has a well honed intuitive sense that she brings to the table, to help buyers find the property they are looking for even when they can't describe it themselves. Paired with her keen intuition, Sarah possesses a range of technical competencies and proficiencies that help buyers, especially newbie buyers like myself, to navigate the complex terrain of real estate transactions - translating all the jargon into simple, understandable, and accessible language for non-real estate professionals. I felt like i could always count on Sarah for every aspect of the home buying experience, from assuaging my anxiety, fostering hope, finding great prospects, and breaking down the complexities into manageable bits.... I am SO GRATEFUL that i met Sarah at an open house, and that she was my guide, mentor, and agent throughout this journey! I am confident that Sarah will be all of those things and then some if you embark on your real estate journey with her as your guide. "

" Maggie guided my daughter and son-in-law every step of the way as they purchased their first home! She was open and honest and responsive to all of our questions. We couldn't have asked for a better agent! I would recommend Maggie to anyone looking to buy or sell! "

" My grandparents mean the world to me and when they decided to move back to Orange County. I was so happy, however a big move from out-of-state can also be stressful! That's why it was extremely important to choose the right Real Estate agent. Thankfully we did - Dublin Wahlberg and the team at The Wahlberg Group are the best! I couldn't be more grateful! He wasn't just an agent looking for commission or pushing for a sale; Dublin was literally a part of the family throughout the entire process! He checked in with them regularly, sent countless options to consider and went out of his way to understand what they wanted. When they were in town simultaneously visiting family/house hunting, Dublin worked around their schedule and had a comprehensive tour of quality open houses planned out. He was professional, dedicated to finding the perfect home for them and beyond patient with my grandmother's unrealistic demands. (Don't tell her I said that) Thanks again for everything you did for them Dublin and I will definitely be telling anyone in the market to sell or buy that I know the best agent to call!! "

" In this crazy real estate market, Maggie was the one who made selling our current home and buying our dream house possible! We were anticipating multiple days of open houses and relentless weekends searching for our new home, but Maggie and her team were able to sell our house (over asking!!) in just a few shorts days, and we were able to get in to look at the house we really wanted as soon as it hit the market. The rest is history! Both transactions went smoothly and we were truly lucky to have Maggie guiding and supporting us every step of the way. She’s THE best and we are lucky to call her our realtor and friend. And - our kids ADORE her! She went above and beyond all of our expectations and is such a positive and kind person. "

" Russ is very professional. efficient. and very knowledgeable. He sold our property in less than a week higher than was offered. He was very prompt in getting back to me, responsive to my calls. emails and text messaging. Very friendly and helpful, always willing to work with me and my husband. Russ is committed in rendering excellent quality of service. I'm very thankful that I did contact him when I received the note card with his business calling card. It was a pleasure doing business with Russ and I highly recommend him. "

" An awesome home buying experience !! Maggie has a amazing capacity to quickly learn what we wanted, what we needed, what we liked and didn't liked and after that she was able to narrow down options and focused into a list of well fit places for the family finding our new house real quick. Her support and expertise during the offer/inspection/appraisal/closing process made the experience very smooth. "

- Henry Barzotti

" Maggie went above and beyond our expectations as our realtor. She communicated with us and the buyers agent constantly and we always new the status. We got a great deal on a house in an awesome neighborhood by Maggie knocking on the door of a house we liked. And, voila, they agreed to talk to her and us! And all of this on the rising tide of COVID-19. We can't thank Maggie enough. OK, one more time, thank you Maggie! "

" "Terri was such a help and blessing in the sale of our home. Terri, always our strength especially during these Covid-19 times, there could be no open houses, but Terri followed all guidelines and was able to show our home one client at a time. Her representation of our home was absolutely perfect and showcased the features of our home. Terri is a pleasure to work with and a professional in all areas of sale expertise. I would recommend Terri Nomann to anyone as a sales representative!!!" txldie 16762 Bayview Dr, Sunset Beach, CA 90742 Verified by Zillow "

" Worked w Jennifer Dykema recently and bought our dream home. She showed patience and poise. She was persistent and fair. She really listened to our needs and didn't waste time in showing us many homes that met our requirements. Not only did we meet a great realtor but we made a friend.. we appreciate you and all you did for us "

- Chad Michael

" Maggie is the nicest and the kindest person you can meet! In addition she is an awesome realtor. She is truly a professional! She guided and supported me throughout the process. She was always there for me and she answered all my questions! She is very knowledgeable and she helped me beat 17 other offers. This had to do with the way she wrote the offer and the way she negotiated on my behalf. If you want to buy or sell a home there is no one better than Maggie to have on your team! "

- Ray

" If you seek a well rounded representative that exudes a strong command of her craft for the sale of your home, Maggie is your person. From the start Maggie is a terrific listener who comprehends your goals and desires. Next, Maggie communicates fully and often such that there is never a gap in expectations or in the approach to achieving those goals. This is not to say Maggie agreed to everything I wanted. Rather, Maggie's solid knowledge of the market always underpinned her gentle guidance, steering me to the best choices to meet the goals I initially communicated to her. The sale of a home is a large asset that I would only entrust to an irreproachable agent. Maggie is that in spades. "

" Simone McCormick is fantastic!!!! She recently helped my husband and I purchase the perfect house for our family. She is exceptional and we are truly grateful! Simone is always available to answer any questions or address any concerns, she is very detailed and highly motivated. She didn't stop until we found exactly what we were looking for. She handled all the covid compliance with ease. She would literally drop everything in a moments notice to show us a new listing so that we wouldn't miss out on anything. And even when I would change the criteria of what I wanted or needed she would go with the flow so seamlessly. She's a super good listener, patient and very perspective. She would know exactly what I wanted (or didn't want lol) even when I didn't tell her directly. She's awesome!! And she has the most excellent negotiating skills!!! Even in this extremely competitive market she was able to get us the home we wanted without even breaking a sweat! Thank you Simone! You're the best! "

- Stephanie D.

" An amazing and stellar team all the way around!!! I've never had such a joyful experience selling/buying a home! My last 3 experiences were nightmares! I just figured that's how it always goes. MAggie and Shaylie showed me how wrong I was. I can't wait to make my new home just as beautiful and have you all over for a fmous Anjlart Homemade Greek Feast! Thank you again and again!! "

- Angeline Damigos

" How can I begin to describe the impeccable service we received from Maggie? From the very beginning, we always felt like we got her undivided attention and care. She listened to what we wanted, needed, and threw in her view when it was necessary. We looked at a lot of homes before we finally found "the one". She held our hand through the entire process and was our biggest cheer leader. Many times we felt she was more excited for us, because we were more nervous than excited. She kept us in the loop about everything but also shielded us from what we didn't need to know. She truly was our eyes, ears, hands, and heart. When we got our keys, she gave us the most thoughtful and generous house warming present. And her service and care has not stopped after we got our keys. The surprises continue even after we moved in. Maggie is truly THE BEST REALTOR EVER!!! "

- Jinky Steinberg

" Maggie was just terrific, from start to finish. I was selling my house and buying a new place, and she walked me through the whole process with a great sense of humor, positive energy, and honesty. One key point that made a difference, she really excelled at the marketing process to sell my house. We had a great showing at our open houses, and got really good offers. Proof of her excellence? $50,000 over the asking price! She did a great job for me, and I am sure she will for any of you. Maggie and her team are terrific. "

" Maggie Knight is still a Super Star! She was with me every step of the way for a purchase of a home in Long Beach in 2019. Her personality and energy won me over, so when I was in the market for another home at the end of 2022, I went back to Maggie, no question! Just like last time, I had a list of specific requirements, and she supported me by paying attention to them and even validating them. I felt that she spent the time to get to know me and understand my needs and wishes and she made them a top priority. Maggie is fantastic with people, including everyone involved in my real estate transaction, together with the sellers, other realtors, escrow officers, and inspectors. I highly recommend Maggie and her Knight Group’s Think Boutiq Real Estate team. Go Maggie, you are THE BEST!! And we LOVE our housewarming gift! "

- Sharon HIll

" I’ve had the pleasure of working with Maggie for almost 3 years now as her real estate photographer. When my husband and I were starting the process to buy our first home there was no question we wanted to have Maggie represent us. She’s extremely organized and thorough. She’s was there for us at anytime for any questions we had. In the end we beat out 6 offers on the first home we made an offer on. We can’t thank her enough for guiding us through this whole process. I highly recommend Maggie if you buying or selling your home! "

- Katie Cappannelli

" Maggie is an absolute Rockstar! I had already purchased my first home with Maggie, which has now become our rental property, and we were fortunate enough to have her expertise during this housing crisis. I don't believe there is any other agent out there that would of scored us the deal we got on our newest property in such a competitive market. She made sure to establish a great relationship with the seller's team and ensured that we had a competitive yet FAIR offer on what is now our new home. She has a plethora of resources and contacts to make sure her clients are comfortable during the escrow process and spared no expense to meet our needs. There is no other agent in California I would ever trust before Maggie Knight and will continue to use her services till death do us part! "

" My partner and I 100% recommend working with Dublin Wahlberg. TLDR: Dublin is punctual, professional, treats lgbtq clients equally, and went to bat for us effectively in negotiations on our home in the South Bay. He will listen to what you want, find you the perfect property and get it into escrow and closed for the right price on time. He is knowledgeable about both the OC and Los Angeles. We met Dublin through a recommendation of a long time trusted friend. We were stressed and pressed for time, juggling the sale of another property out of state and staying too close to our quirky family here in L.A. for comfort! Not to mention the 9 hrs per day 6 days a week of neighbors construction we needed to escape from. Add the Pandemic and we were going bananas ready to move to a bigger, more peaceful home. Dublin didn't feed that stress at all. He communicated clearly every step of the way, keeping us informed of all options lending expertise and yet leaving the decision making up to us with no pressure. Dublin listened and understood exactly what we were looking for. We had a prior agent who kept insisting on showing us homes we didn't want at all. Dublin is the opposite really got what we were looking for and how we wanted to work. I get the sense he is very adaptable. We looked at dozens of homes and Dublin handled all logistics even the Covid hurdles with grace and a smile (under his mask but I knew he was smiling!). He has a positive, can-do attitude which is exactly what we needed during this stressful time. I asked Dublin to negotiate for us and he was able to help us effectively get to a fair price and fast timeline for all. From signing forms, to viewing appointments, to help with scheduling inspections Dublin was consistently on time and on point. As an LGBTQ couple we are always ready to deal with and work around B.S. or negligence (from flat out prejudice to unconscious bias) from professionals from doctors to bankers to caterers. It is what it is, extra work. We didn't have to do that extra work with Dublin. Being LGBTQ was a non-issue throughout the entire process. I would definitely not hesitate to recommend Dublin to LGBTQ and non-traditional families in addition to everyone else. We've landed in a home that is perfect for us that we feel is a super solid long term investment. We have Dublin to thank for a 500% reduction in stress as we now sit in our quiet back yard! Thank you Dublin! "
