a few words ..
FROM OUR CLIENTS

“  When we considered selling our Dana Point home, Max Crispi and Melissa Davies-Crispi became our advisors, partners, trusted allies and real estate agents. Their counsel regarding pricing, marketing and home presentation was not only invaluable but uncannily accurate and effective. The result? We sold our home in 5 days for considerably more than our asking price and closed the transaction three weeks later. From beginning to end 26 days! What a performance! “

“ Max and Melissa made buying my first home a smooth, easy and fun process. I felt like I didn’t have to do anything as they took care of me from start to finish. They found the most amazing house for me and I couldn’t be happier. I am very happy I chose Max and Melissa and would recommend them to anyone.”

Max and Melissa Crispi just sold our house for a great price in under 100 days. They marketed our home all over the country using amazing photos and video. Our home received 2-3 times more views on Zillow than comps in Sea Summit. They also brought us a great buyer that wanted a fast close. Max and Melissa also found us a great rental while we wait for our new home to be completed. Best realtor team in Orange County- thanks for everything.

Melissa and her husband Max were delightful to work with. They were patient, knowledgeable, kept us informed and really worked hard to get the perfect home for us. I have already recommended them to our friends!

“ I’d like to thank Max and Melissa for helping me buy and sell my homes. The process was absolutely seamless due to their tenacity and follow through. This is the second home they have helped me purchase and both times they were amazing. I consider them my good friends and would recommend them to anyone buying or selling a home!

“ We were out of state buyers looking for a vacation property in Newport Beach. We were referred to 3 other realtors who basically turned up their noses at us when we gave them our budget and what we were looking for. Melissa and Max came through as a referral from our friend’s business associate. Immediately, their demeanor was different. Melissa and Max followed through on searches and even spent a day with me going through all the possible “beach communities” when I flew down there. They were incredibly patient with us while we waited for something new to come on market and even some off market listings. Not once did we feel pressured to spend more money or that we had to make an offer just because something came on that was actually in our budget. Since we were not local, 90% of our showings was done via FaceTime. In the end, through their perseverance, they found an off market listing right when we were thinking about tabling our vacation home dream. Oh, did I mention they also made sure our purchase agreement went through while we were traveling overseas?! Seriously, I don’t know how much more service you could get from a realtor. But there is more... We are currently doing a massive renovation to the duplex that we bought. Prior to construction, Melissa and Max assisted us with getting the units vacated, getting keys to contractors, taking pictures of the newly vacated space, and have offered to go check in on the property during construction. They go above and beyond their realtor duties. Most importantly, beyond this busi- ness deal, we genuinely consider Melissa and Max our friends. I cannot recommend them enough!

Melissa is a top-notch real estate professional. She has a skill set, personality and results orientation that are superb. Highly recommended. She listed our home, we received multiple offers and went to contract – all in 4 days. Our closing price was $87,000 above listing price!

"Max & Melissa Crispi are a dynamic team. Their knowledge, work ethic and professionalism enabled us to have our condo successfully sold at a higher price than we'd expected. Listing to sale took less than six weeks and they built in extra time post sale for us to locate and purchase another property. "

Melissa and her husband and partner Max helped us sell our home quickly in Irvine. They were very professional, honest, knowledgeable, and quick to respond to emails and text. A nice perk is that we also needed a handyman and cleaner to help fix our place up to sell and they had reliable trustworthy contacts that made the process seamless. They also were more than fair in negotiating the property sale. We would utilize their expertise again in the future and highly recommend them.

They were incredibly patient with us

I met Ms. Davies-Crispi in August, 2012 when I was looking to move to an upscale apartment. Ms. Davies-Crispi impressed me with her knowledge of that market. She showed me several beautiful properties. We looked at apartments at each property as well as touring the grounds and inspecting the amenities (gym facilities, pool, community center, etc.).

We met with the leasing agents at each property. Again, I was impressed with Ms. Davies-Crispi’s process expertise and negotiating skills. I decided on an apartment and Ms. Davies-Crispi referred me to an interior designer who did a wonderful job furnishing the apartment.

I have lived in the apartment since renting it in 2012 and am extremely happy with my choice. Ms. Davies-Crispi continues to stay in touch with me asking if I remain pleased with my decision. Her follow-up is just one more example of her professionalism. I highly recommend Ms. Davies- Crispi. She is knowledgeable, personable and competent.
