About
My wife, Michelle, and I have lived and worked the Temecula/Murrieta area since 1992. We know the valley better than most, having raised our two beautiful daughters in this wonderful community with our near perfect weather, great schools, wineries and outdoor activities.

Wondering which neighborhood would be best for you? We'd love to get to know you and make some recommendations. We don't believe our job is to sell you a home—our goal is to place you in the neighborhood and home that best fit you and your family.

I have over 25 years of experience in marketing and contract negotiations, many in executive VP positions with NYSE companies. I love representing my clients' interests to the best of my abilities. Whether it is getting you the highest price possible for your home or representing your interests in purchasing a property, Michelle and I would love to share our intimate knowledge of the area and our experience as top producing full-time Realtors.

Joe is an exceptional realtor! We found him at an open house and were very impressed with his knowledge of the area and personable style. He helped us sell our house and buy another, orchestrating a concurrent closing effortlessly. His focus on interpersonal relationships allowed us to buy the home of our dreams. Having made a stressful situation seamless, we highly recommend Joe to anyone looking to buy or sell.

We recently sold a property in Murrieta and Joe was our broker. After receiving several offers he worked with us to select the best offer. Without Joe's experience and hard work the deal would have fallen apart due to a low FHA appraisal.

I highly recommend the professional, knowledgeable, and quality services that Joe McDermott provides to his clients. Joe McDermott is exceptionally adept in the technicalities of Southern California Real Estate, and goes out of his way to make sure your home buying process is smooth, safe, and secure. Mr. McDermott truly cares for his clients, and ensures that no box gets left unchecked. Furthermore, Mr. McDermott is very well versed in the intricacies of VA home loans and home purchases, and ensures that our military members are protected, cared-for, and treated with respect during their home buying process. A devout family man and dedicated professional, I highly recommend Mr. McDermott for any home buying or selling services.

i have worked with Joe for a long time now he got my family and i into our first home then two years later we sold that home and recently got into our second. Throughout every experience Joe not only was very professional but also very responsive and he took the time to get
to know my husband and i and what we both were looking for in a home and definitely hit the nail on the head with both homes. i couldn't be more pleased with our home buying and selling experiences i would highly recommend Joe for your next selling or buying adventure.

We highly recommend Joe!! He was very helpful through this entire long process. He was very detailed with all the paper work and information we needed to know (specially being first time home buyers). Returned every phone call/text when we had any doubts or questions. Gave us that ease of mind knowing he was there in this stressful situation. Thanks Joe.
