"5 STAR REVIEW: We can't thank Mike enough for his guidance and experience. Buying a home for the first time is exciting and also completely overwhelming. He was able to guide and more importantly educate us through the entire process. We relied on Mike's experience to help us negotiate a fair price and protect our interests. The deluge of questions that we had were always answered in a timely and personable manner. This was much appreciated. We love our new place and have Mike to thank."

"5 STAR REVIEW: Mike’s expert knowledge in real estate is simply unmatched by anyone. He was efficient, professional and 100% committed. He was able to successfully negotiate an agreement on the very first offer we made on a home. (Even though, we were one of ten other offers and not the highest bid.) Most importantly, he was able to guide us and sincerely took time to educate us on the process. I give Mike my highest recommendation. If you are seriously looking to purchase a property in San Diego county. Mikes the person to call. Hands down."

  -Tiffany Altman, Client

"5 STAR REVIEW: I talked to three realtors and Mike with the most genuine, knowledgeable and responsive. A friend recommended him to me and I’m glad she did. I trust his expertise. He’s in authority on real estate. If you’re selling, trust Mike, he’s got connections and makes it easy not to settle for less for status quo."

"5 STAR REVIEW: I have worked with Mike Shenkman on numerous real estate transactions over the past 15 years, from acquisitions/dispositions, property management, unlawful detainer actions, need for legislative guidance (I.e. Covid regs), and community-based policy issues. His vigor and work ethic is unmatched, and I can’t think of a single professional in the industry across SoCal (and beyond, frankly) that I can trust more with my business. I’ve come to him with multi-million dollar projects and high-stakes legislative issues, and smaller, first home purchases, and time and again, he puts in the same level of unwavering dedication and personal consideration across the board. He’s a charismatic fast talker and deal worker, and naturally displays the utmost old-school integrity of generations long gone. I’ve worked with several real estate professionals on both sides of the deal, but I ONLY trust Mike with my clients and personal investments. No wonder he was named best in the business "

"5 STAR REVIEW: Mike has successfully helped me purchase several properties, both of which had strict requirements and time restraining due to being 1031 exchanges. I am very happy with what I purchased and had all my questions answered, even ones I didn’t know I had. Mike also manages some investment properties for me. I haven’t had any problems and he has made the process a breeze. Moreover, he is always extremely prompt with his communication whenever I have any question, and very gracious with his vast knowledge when I need unrelated real estate questions answered. I don’t plan on working with any other realator or manager in San Diego, Mike takes care of everything."
