“We had a good time working together, the sale and the buy of houses we're pretty seamless all the documentation and the heads up of signing and sending she was on top of any questions that we needed answered if she couldn't do it in that moment, she would always get back to us promptly can't wait to get another house through Janely. Thanks again.”
“Our family was dealing with job loss and illness of our family's main provider, while having to sell our home of 17 years and downsize to a smaller home in a new county. Rienne had the knowledge and nurturing to help us through the most challenging and chaotic transition. She worked extremely hard to sell our home right as the market was shifting and kept the positivity when we were feeling negative. She also worked to find us a new home we could be happy about even though it was a major downsize. She was always available and made the whole process extremely easy and manageable. I would use her again and recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing realtor who will go above and beyond at every turn! We are extremely grateful to Rienne for helping with sale of our home and the purchase of our new home! She is truly the whole package!”
“Nancy was the most professional realtor I have ever worked with. She spent nights and weekends working hard to get our probate property sold. She kept us apprised every step of the way. Her extensive experience with probates made us feel reassured nothing would be missed. Her partner Cory was also intrumental in bringing addition prospects to the table so it was a 2 for 1 benefit. Nancy also has an escrow team that was very impressive. I fully recommend Nancy and her team.”

“We've known Gabby for a few years and have always been struck by how genuine and friendly she is. So when we heard she became a real estate agent, we were thrilled and knew immediately we would use her when the time came to buy our home. Gabby guided us through every single step of the process of buying our new family home. Her communication was exceptional—we never felt we couldn't reach out with a question, no matter how small. Most importantly, she was consistently honest and real with us, ensuring we never felt pressured and always felt looked after. We truly couldn't have picked a better agent. If you're looking for someone who will genuinely have your best interests at heart, Gabby is your person!”
“As a first time buyer, I was a bit intimidated with the process. The knowledge and expertise Steven Padilla and his team exemplify, made this purchase as smooth as possible for me and my family.”
“Excellent Experience and very insightful and helpful through the process of purchasing new forever home.”
“At our first meeting Gautam had an accurate understanding of my neighborhood and it's surroundings. After walking through the house and the yards he gave a clear assessment of our home's value and the reasons why. He also had an idea of what types of buyers would likely show interest, and how to market our home to them. He had an excellent advertising package in mind. One day after being on the market we received a full-price offer. It fell through, but in line were two more full-price offers. The second potential buyer became the buyer. There were three issues with the property that arose and he handled them all. That was especially helpful as we were already out-of-state. The house sold without further issues. Gotham was easy to work with, and his expertise gave me confidence that things would be well-handled. I recommend Gautam highly, and would recommend him to family and friends.”

She has systems in place to make any home purchase or sale flawless and smooth. She is our go-to real estate professional!”
“Danny was excellent. I met him 10 Years ago when he helped us purchase our first home and I wouldn't go with anyone else but him. I trust him and his knowledge. We worked together again now in selling my home. Thank you for everything Danny. I highly recommend him :)”

“We had an amazing experience working with Joelle! From the very beginning, she was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and truly invested in helping us find the right home. Our search spanned across many cities in Orange County, and she never hesitated to go the extra mile—literally and figuratively. She gave us honest insights into each neighborhood, helped us understand the current market trends, and guided us through every step of the process. Thanks to her expertise and negotiation skills, we ended up with a fantastic deal on a home we absolutely love.

“My husband and I have really enjoyed working with Joel in the process of finding a new home. He has been extremely knowledgeable, patient, and professional. He was timely but not too pushy. He is very detailed-oriented, which we appreciated greatly in the unique home purchase we made. He was very clear in explaining documents, market trends, and legal topics we were less familiar with. He was also very reliable and dependable.”

What really stood out was Nick's ability to explain complex concepts in a way that was easy to understand. He provided me with valuable resources and connected me with individuals who helped streamline the purchase process. Thanks to his efforts, what could have been a daunting experience was actually a breeze. I highly recommend Nick to anyone in search of a dedicated, personable, and professional real estate agent. His expertise and support made buying my first home a smooth and enjoyable journey.”

Balboa Island offers residents a charming waterfront lifestyle with walkable streets, harbor views, and a warm, close-knit community anchored by local shops and year-round activities.
Balboa Island is a postcard-worthy enclave in Newport Beach where cottage-lined lanes meet the calm waters of Newport Harbor. Daily life flows on foot or by bike to Marine Avenue’s boutiques and classic frozen bananas, with waterfront strolls punctuated by the gentle hum of the historic Balboa Island Ferry. Local history comes alive at the engaging Balboa Island Museum Newport Beach, while paddleboards, kayaks, and Duffy boats glide past docks at every tide. City services, tide information, and harbor updates are easy to track through the City of Newport Beach.
Families are served by the Newport-Mesa Unified School District, with nearby campuses such as Harbor View Elementary, Corona del Mar Middle/High School, and Newport Harbor High School. After-school life is equally convenient—beach play, bay swimming areas, and pocket parks keep weekends effortless, and the island’s community traditions, from festive lights to sandcastle mornings, make neighbors feel like friends.
Commuters appreciate the island’s quick link to Pacific Coast Highway and easy access to Orange County job centers, with flights a short ride away at John Wayne Airport. Whether you’re drawn to a snug cottage or a modern bayfront, Balboa Island offers a rare mix of small-scale living and big coastal appeal.
