Testimonials

John helped us buy our first home. He’s patient, generous with his time and expertise, negotiates hard, and tells it how it is – a bundle of qualities that stand out in this industry. We’re customers for life!

I know John for 3 years and have done 3 deals through him. I cannot say enough how knowledgeable, caring, on top of his game and still extremely humble and polite John is.

He can get the deal so flawlessly and smooth without being pushy to the buyer or crude to the seller.

He respects everyone and really sees what client needs and works on it until he gets it for you. He is there whenever you need him, texting, calling, and getting information.

I trust him doing our real estate forever and my 2 sons will use his expertise in future also.. Thanks so much for doing a fantastic job for us.

Bought a home in Encinitas, CA

We found our dream home and John secured the deal. There were several competing offers, and we had contingencies that were less attractive than the competition, but John was instrumental in closing the transaction. He communicates clearly and as frequently as you need support (I needed quite a bit and often at very early and late hours). If you are selling or buying, touch base with John – he is talented and brings honor to an otherwise challenging industry and process.

John has a trusted advisor approach to helping his customers. He not only assists with the buying and selling process but brings valuable insights about the industry which obviously comes from years of experience. He has a great network of resources that can be helpful throughout the real estate transaction process. He is highly responsive and always seems happy to help. I would recommend John for any real estate needs you may have.

John was amazing! He made the process so easy. He walks you through everything and makes himself available to you when you have questions. He has a relaxed attitude and is laid back, but knows how to negotiate! I highly recommend John!

We feel so fortunate to have found SDREI. Everyone we worked with from John to Tom was hands down exceptional!!!!! Every step of the process in buying our first home was thoroughly explained. We would always recommend SDREI to friends and family.

We recently found a home in Carlsbad after 3-4 months of searching for the right home. John La Mattery and Lacy White were our team and they were a top-notch duo! They understood our wants/needs and made sure that we did not “settle” on something that was just acceptable…but on a house we could call our HOME. They took the time to understand what we wanted and what our kids wanted/needed as well. If anyone is looking for a partner to help find you HOME, John & Lacy is the team to call.

I have to say that my entire experience was great. John La Mattery was amazing. He keyed on what was important to me and now we live in a beautiful home that is perfect for us. John, and Lacy, were there anytime that I wanted to see another home. John had a lot of patience and spent plenty of time to make sure that we not only got the house that we wanted, but we also got it a the price that we wanted. It was just such a great experience. Thanks.

I purchased a short sale single family home through SDREAI and I was surprised how quickly the process went and how efficiently SDREAI navigated through the short sale process with the seller’s bank. My agent (Daniel Lecuna) kept me up to date throughout the process and we got short sale approval and closed escrow when expected. I would highly recommend SDREAI to my friends and family.
