Client Testimonials


 

Hi Mark,
Jeannie and I just want to thank you for your patience and calm throughout the
nearly two years it took us to find just the right home. I know of no other person
on earth who could have put up with my constant questions and crazy "what ifs".  The
only sad part about buying our dream home in Cayucos is that I'll miss the excitment
of the hunt and the goofy laughter of a kindred spirtit.  Thanks beyond words. 

Bill and Jeannie Stiers.

Mark,

Just a quick note to thank you for all of your help.  Lori and I really appreciate how easy you made it for us and especially how you help us guide Jessica.  This was truly one of the easiest real estate transactions we have done.  Thanks again, and we look forward to working with you again in the future.

Wilbert Cho, P.E.

If you’re looking for a realtor who is both able and willing (even eager) to tailor his or her services precisely to the specifics of your needs, then Mark Wimberly is the realtor for you.  We met Mark entirely accidentally while we were looking at places that didn’t really interest us.  Mark was clever enough to figure out why we weren’t interested in the place where we met and offered to show us something he thought suited our preferences. He was absolutely right; what he showed us was exactly what we wanted.  In order to afford the place Mark showed us, we needed to reach a complicated arrangement with the current owner which included transferring an existing property of ours to him.  None of this fazed Mark at all.  He was flawless in keeping up with all the details of the various aspects of the deal, and meticulous in keeping us informed.  Overall, he managed a complex process smoothly and seemingly effortlessly.  We’ve purchased a number of houses over the years and dealt with a bevy of realtors.  Mark is clearly our favorite across this extensive experience.

When my wife and I decided to relocate to San Luis Obispo we were very fortunate to meet Mark Wimberly. We had a pretty specific set of criteria for our dream home, and Mark was patient, thoughtful, intelligent and resourceful in finding us just the right spot and working with us to negotiate just the right deal. Our new home hunt took us a good six months, and Mark was with us each step of the way. Never a hassle, always a helping hand.

Thank you Mark for your help with my two new developments in San Luis Obispo County.   Not only did you find buyers for 6 of my 15 new homes last year but your help getting local agents interested during open houses got us sold out in less than a year!   I really appreciated how all of your buyers closed escrow with a very positive opinion of both you and me.  I think it is your attention to detail and interest in helping your clients follow up on those details that has led to your success.
 
Thanks again!

To whom it may concern,

I would like to express my deep gratitude to Mark Wimberly, who assisted my father in the purchase of his home. It was an extremely trying time for my father and Mark handled the situation with grace and ease. I am especially grateful to Mark for the patience he showed my father during multiple home showings and frequent telephone calls. The advice that Mark gave my father helped with some difficult decisions which later provided for a significant decrease in anxiety regarding the purchase of a new home. Mark was extremely flexible with his schedule and he was always available when we needed him. This was important since my father was moving from the Los Angeles area and was not in the San Luis Obispo area very often. I was also impressed with Mark’s enthusiasm for his work, which is clearly expressed in his strong work ethic. I entrusted the care of my father to him and I cannot imagine how anyone could have done a better job. I would recommend him very highly to anyone interested in selling or buying a home in the San Luis Obispo area.

Sincerely,

Denise Taylor, MD

Hi Mark,

I wanted to thank you for the extremely caring treatment and professional services that you provided in our recent condo purchase.  This transaction was complicated by having a first time buyer and an out of town co buyer. You acted as my eyes and made this the smoothest real estate transaction I have ever experienced.  Your attention to details and communications was exceptional.  I whole heartedly would recommend you to one and all.
Thanks Again.

Dear Mark

Thank you so much for helping us find our new home! Clearly you know the market well AND listen well since you found the perfect home for us quickly and at a price below our budget. We also want to commend you for your professionalism. We appreciated you educating us during every step of the home-buying process. With your knowledge of Real Estate law, we always felt well represented, in control, and at ease in what could have been a stressful and overwhelming process.

Finally, we want to express our gratitude for your friendly and dedicated service. You were always there when we had questions, and during critical inspections and meetings. In fact, you even went the extra mile in helping us with advice when selling our home in Southern California though you were not the listing agent. You were also quick with great recommendations for other needed services from mortgage brokers to repair contractors (all of whom were timely and proficient).

You are obviously passionate about what you do. By that we don’t mean just buying and selling houses; you clearly care about what is best for your clients. Because of that dedication, and your skill at navigating these complicated transactions, we’d recommend your services to anyone buying or selling a home. Again, we can’t thank you enough for making the process as painless as possible, but also for making sure we found the home where we would be happiest.

We love our home! Thanks!

Mark facilitated the sale of my home in an exemplary manner, keeping me informed of all activity and offering me keen and enthusiastic advice along the way. His attention to detail and willingness to help with some minor home repair, saved me lots of time and worry.  Being a single women and relocating across country, I relied on Mark's strategies and well-rounded one-stop service.  In addition, his level of service did not decline during the entire process and I was able to sell my house even in an over-saturated market.  I didn't really understand the value of a real estate agent, but after the experience, having the right real estate agent and team working for your side makes the difference.  Even after office hours, he sought to alleviate my fears and concerns and even worked around my schedule and the three hour time difference to ensure the job got done.  I am available anytime to elaborate on my positive and rewarding experience with Mark and his company.
Sincerely,
Sara Slow

Hi Mark,

Just wanted to say thanks and let you know how pleased Carole & I were with our recent condo purchase. Really appreciated your due diligence and "sweating the small stuff" so we wouldn't have to. You made the whole process easy. I especially wanted to thank you for your ongoing follow-up and in getting the answers to our many questions. We'd be happy to recommend you to anyone we know who is planning on buying a home.

All our best,

Dave & Carole Buchanan

Mark Wimberly recently completed a complicated real estate transaction for me, which I am eternally grateful for. His professionalism, diligence, attention to detail and his positive attitude not only assisted in closing the deal but also helped me in coping with the stress of the situation. I have dealt with several real estate agents over the years and Mark is clearly above the rest in his real estate knowledge, negotiation abilities and people skills. I would highly recommend Mark not only to my business associates, but my friends as well.

We moved to San Luis Obispo with a cursory knowledge of the areas, and an idea of what we wanted in a house. Mark Wimberly took the time to show us several corners of the county, and directed us to resources to consider when choosing a certain area of SLO county.

Mark advised us on offer strategy in a strange market. Mark helped draft a strong contract; he helped us consider certain things that would be positive, neutral or negative to the seller. Of four offers, ours was accepted. His work did not end there.
Mark was with us at every turn - he helped with inspections, went with us to county hall to negate any zoning concerns (we met with the planner that worked on our house!), and recommended a contractor for some upgrades we were considering. Mark gave us the straight answer; it was always the truth.

If we could sum up our experience it is this: "Mark treated our money like it was his. He made sure we knew any potential risks. When we buy or sell, Mark will be the only one we call."

I am deeply indepted to Mark Wimberly for his dedication and hard work in helping me to purchase my new residence in Los Osos.  Although my daughter and her family have lived in Los Osos for about eight or nine years, I was relatively unfamiliar with this area.   Mark is quite knowledable about property in Los Osos and in the neighboring communities.  He provided me with a list and detailed descriptions of several properties in Los Osos that met my criteria concerning size, location, price, etc., and patiently showed these properties to my daughter and me.   After viewing several properties in Los Osos, Arrroyo Grande, and Grover Beach, Mark helped me to locate and purchase a beautiful two-story residence only one half mile away from my daughter's home in Los Osos.  Even after the original offer, counter-offer, and counter-counter-offer, Mark's work was not done.  He arranged for a thorough inspection of the entire house by a team of licensed professional home inspectors.  In general the house was in excellent condition, but there was some doubt about the condition of the heating furnace, and Mark persuaded the sellers to replace it with assistance from a seller's home warranty policy.  I have little knowledge about real estate values and laws.  Without Mark's invaluable professional help, I would not have been able to purchase my beautiful new home.
