Sean is an excellent agent, he went above and beyond all my expectations and was always available to communicate with me whenever I had any questions. I wouldn’t hesitate to use him again and I’ll be referring him to all my friends and family.

Sean is an agent you want going to bat for you.
He has an outstanding personality and is easy to work with. From day one, his positive attitude and tenacity built confidence and ease. He does his own photography; if you view any of his previous listings, you’ll be amazed at the professionalism. Our home looked outstanding.
Sean will treat you fairly, negotiate aggressively and won’t accept anything less than the best result for you as a seller. We had an issue with our HOA releasing documents, and Sean pursued that friction point multiple times a day until it was resolved. He’ll answer your calls and questions any time of day.
I cannot recommend him enough. We will use him as our representation when we return to California; thank you Sean!

Sean did a magnificent job for us when he sold our house in Temecula. He went beyond his job as our agent to help us buy our new home. Even though some complications arouse with the new home, Sean worked hard clearing everything and was able to get us our dream home. We feel very lucky to have landed him as our agent/broker.

Sean is an absolute one of a kind in this industry. He is an extremely knowledgeable and caring professional that is laser focused on making sure you as client is kept informed, comfortable and taken care of throughout the entire process. He worked tirelessly to make the entire process smooth. Every question was answered expeditiously. He kept us informed every step of the way, even though we were separated by two continents and nine time zones. We could not have asked for a better agent to help us with the sale of our home. Sean is the personification of what all agents should strive to be. Sean has our complete trust and confidence and I would absolutely seek him out in the future should the need arise.

My wife and I have bought many homes. Sean was the best agent we have ever had! He always answered all are questions and was on top of our transaction the whole time. He worked really well with the other agent. His drone pictures of our house were fantastic!!! Really believe it helped bring buyers to see it. Wouldn’t hesitate to use Sean again!!

Sean is very knowledgeable of the local real estate market. His assessment of the market is very accurate and we received an offer at the asking price within a few days of listing. He has excellent communication skills and is very accessible and responsive to texts and emails. He is also an excellent photographer and spends an entire day to capture his listings at various times of the day. When we were listing our house, our plan was to interview at least three agents, Sean is the first one we met, and we did not want to meet with anyone else. Sean charges a reasonable fee and provides top-notch professional service. He is a highly ethical and experienced real estate agent. We would highly recommend Sean as your listing agent.

We originally contacted Sean O’Neil about 10 months before we were ready to list our family home for sale. He had provided exceptional service for our daughter and son-in-law who had listed their home with him a couple of months earlier. When he first came to meet us and see our home, he discussed current comparables for our property as well as suggested possible improvements we might consider to improve the appeal of our home for prospective buyers. This conversation really helped guide our decisions the following months. We did not feel rushed, and he answered all of our questions. When we were ready to list, Mr. O’Neil completed a very professional portfolio of photographs he took himself that really showcased the assets of our home. Mr. O’Neil has excellent communication skills. He carefully explained each step of the sale from listing through closing including navigating a significant number of offers. This attentive and clear communication was especially important to us as we moved out of state the day our house was put on the market. He is knowledgeable, detail-oriented, and ethical. We enthusiastically recommend Mr. O’Neil’s real estate services without any reservations.

Sean is an outstanding agent, great professional , very efficient and attentive to your need. He charges a very reasonable fee but still deliver an outstanding work. I don’t see any reason i should work with anybody else.

I am am ornery old fart so this is not my first rodeo. In all my years I have never had the degree of service excellence that I have experienced with Mr O’Neal. From our first contact months before we listed with him he never blew me off. He was always responsive to my inquiries and promptly answered all my questions and concerns. With treatment like that, how could I in good conscience not list with him. I just wish he worked in Arizona where my wife an I are moving. Sean, well done.
J Richard Fetters – Murrieta, CA

Sean O’Neil listed my late mom’s home for me. He was great from the beginning to the end. Amazing pictures and great listing. Sold fast. Would use Sean again. Very satisfied with everything he did.

From day one, Sean followed through with all of the promises that he made. He is knowledgeable, always responsive, and kept everything moving forward in a positive direction. Once we signed a contract with him he spent the better part of 8 hours taking highly professional photos of both the interior and exterior of our
Bruce & Jenny Kusler – Murrieta, CA
___________________________________________________________________________________
We must admit that before signing up with Sean ONeil to sell our home (and simultaneously help us buy our next home), we had gained the impression via previous life experience with other agents that all realtors were just simply highly compensated folk for doing very little. Sean turned our thinking around 180 degrees. The best word to describe Sean’s work ethic, talent, professionalism, value and proactive engagement at every step of the process is “AMAZING”. Our faith in the real estate buying/selling business is restored and we truly doubt you will find anyone that will exceed Sean’s experience and value. This guy spent an entire day personally photographing our home inside and out and even from above. Everyone who viewed the photos were blown away, but, not as much as us! As a result, our home received multiple offers and we were under contract within 36 hours…And all this in a neighborhood where other homes had been sitting on the market for weeks. We were so impressed from the selling side of things, we asked Sean to represent us for our next home even though it was located 100 miles from our current home. At a point where negotiations were not going well with the purchase of our new home, Sean came up with an out-of-the-box solution that both parties agreed to. In fact, Sean came up with effective solutions for every twist and turn along our dual escrow path. In a few days from now we will be moving onto our dream home where we will begin our next chapter of life. Sean was such a huge player in making this happen. All we can say is…Hire SEAN ONEIL…You will not regret it.

Once we signed a contract with him he spent the better part of 8 hours taking highly professional photos of both the interior and exterior of our home…these photos were the beginning step for generating interest and subsequent live customers viewing our home. We had a few offers on our home and Sean was invaluable navigating us through some of the challenges that potential buyers can bring to the table…My wife and I highly recommend Sean as both reliable, honest, and experienced real estate agent.

Sean is by far the best realtor I have ever worked with. I have had 2 prior experiences with realtors and he definitely is the most knowledgeable, very personable, and an extremely professional agent. He makes you feel at ease and wants to be sure you have peace of mind during every step of the escrow process. Sean puts himself in the clients shoes always and makes sure no problems arise during escrow. If he anticipates any issues, he takes care of it right away and knows exactly how to handle it in a professional manner. He made sure to take the best photos of my condo and was there for several hours making sure everything was perfect. Sean gave me a heads up every time and explained everything to me putting my mind at ease. I couldn’t have asked for a better realtor! I would definitely work with Sean again in the future and I highly recommend him to anyone looking to sell their home. He is extremely funny too, which makes the process very enjoyable. You will not be disappointed by the service he provides.
Sylvia Blum – Lake Elsinore, CA

Sean is absolutely amazing! Knowledgeable, professional, an excellent communicator and dedicated. From spending 10 hours in our home taking just the right pictures, to how he handled a low ball 1st offer, practically getting them to come back close to asking price, to handling my “I am worried about appraisal” phone call. Sean’s dedication to us and our needs was nothing short of exemplary.
We accepted the second offer 5 days after listing at $5,000 above asking price. The asking price was $20,000 above what other realtors we met with suggested and $10,000 under what Sean suggested. Sean was dead on in his estimate. He was very respectful of our decision to list lower then his suggestion, however he did ask one more time before listing “are you sure this is what you want to list for?” That’s because Sean, with his wealth of knowledge and understanding, knew what it would sell for. Despite the fact that the average days on the market for houses in our community being 95 days. Sean would not be deterred. Which brings me to my next point. We found Sean thru a friend in our community, he sold their house in 3 days at top selling price. When doing our research and reading his reviews, we found a lot of people claiming the same thing; selling their home within a week at top selling price.
But there is more to Sean than just knowing the market. We feel that what truly sold the house was his diligence in helping us understand what was needed for showing and all the time he spent at our house taking the right photos. Superb effort and quality and definitely an example for others to follow. Let me share some of the comments we got from our family:
“He is so over the top, I hope this pays off” (in reference to how long he spent taking pictures. Boy did it pay off!!)
“He really advocates for his clients” (for how he handled the low ball offer and researching buyer’s lender. This was our turning point from “we are dealing with a realtor to “ we have complete and total confidence in you Sean”)
“When you first told me he only charged 3.5% I thought there must be something wrong. I couldn’t believe it. You found a gem” (ALL that he did and only paid 3.5% total that includes broker fee, buyers realtor fee and seller realtor fee)
“Isn’t Sean amazing?, if you only knew what we deal with between realtors out there. Sean is very professional and very thorough” (from the buyers realtor on our final walk thru)
Sean is very talented, with the right formula to get your house sold! There are buyers out there and Sean will get you noticed. He will be involved in the entire transaction and keep you updated. Any questions, you will get immediate response. We are lucky to have found him. After our first meeting and after telling him we wanted him to be our realtor, he says “ I will work hard for you and won’t let you down” This is a bold statement to live by, Sean did so, and then some!

Sean was the most professional agent that I interviewed for the selling of my home. Besides been and spectacular photographer he’s excellent at estimating value for your home. He got me the most money comparing with the other agents I had interviewed who were leaving money behind on the table in their estimates. Selling your home can be very confusing and stressful, Sean made sure to guide me and follow through pretty much every step of the way no matter how trivial or late it could be, he’ll treat you like you’re number one. He’s also very dedicated and knowledgeable about the neighborhood him being a resident of Canyon Hills has given him the best experience and skills that you won’t find in another real estate agent!! I would not hesitate 100% to recommend Sean as the To Go Guy for selling or purchasing a home!! You’ll be very satisfied!

Buying and selling a house is stressful. But Sean and Carrie helped us get through the challenges. We especially appreciated their quick responses, clear communications, and valuable knowledge. There were moments when the transactions were in jeopardy but Sean helped us stay focused and optimistic. Sean and Carrie are a modern, tech savvy team, who are professional and trustworthy. And if you still can’t decide on agent, It only costs 3.5% total to sell your home and Sean takes awesome pictures with his cool drone.

I contacted Sean regarding a property and he was friendly and very helpful in providing details about the property. Once in escrow Sean was always there to answer any questions. It was extremely easy to get a hold of him either by text or call. Answered all my questions kindly and was never rude. Would definitely use Sean again if we ever decide to sell or buy another property.

Sean O’Neil is very skilled and a master at problem solving. If there are any glitches or obstacles in any filings or documentation Sean makes it very simple to resolve. I would us Sean without hesitation, and I have total confidence that the job will be professionally and skillfully executed. With the utmost respect and patience. His ability to rapidly sell real estate is admirable and a welcomed suprise. Sean will not disappoint and couldn’t be a nicer guy. He is honest and trustworthy without question. Sean’s work ethics are above reproach. Highly recommended.

Selling a house isn’t an easy task. Finding that one right person to accomplish this without feeling stressed can be difficult. Well, let me tell you this. Having Sean as our agent, put us at ease during the entire process. Sean had the character, knowledge, and desire to get our house sold and will do the same for you. He was in constant communication and was there any time of the day to answer a question. Out of all the past properties I’ve bought or sold, this is hands down the BEST AGENT period! I will not forget his funny and kind disposition . Thank you Sean. The Creager family

Sean ONeil has been the best agent we have used. He kept us up to date on every aspect of our offer. His expertise of matters involving the sale and closing was far above anyone we have used to sell a home. We have sold 5 homes in the past 20 years and would recommend Sean hands down over anyone else in our area.

Sean was excellent to work with and made the selling process easy and painless. We had many showings. Sean personally took photos of the house for the listing. The photos were spectacular and I believe that was reason behind all the showings. The home sold surprisingly quick! We definitely recommend using Sean for a smooth transaction!

Sean was very knowledgeable and very professional. He was very impressive from the moment he introduced himself to my husband and me. He was extremely masterful in explaining all details of the process. His immediate attention in performing his job and proceeding with the sale process was definitely a 5.

Don Miller – Menifee, CA
___________________________________________________________________________________
I want to say thank you to Sean O’Neil for helping me sell my mom’s house. The house sold in 5 days, possibly because of the great pictures he took before he listed the house. Sean’s commission is lower than most other realtors, and this particular sale was through a trust, which made more work for Sean, but his service was outstanding! He stayed on top of every detail and is a pleasure to work with. I have a realtor for life.
Thanks again,

Sean is very detail oriented, easy to work with and worked tirelessly on selling our home. We had several issues on the buyers side and Sean stayed on top of it to make sure nothing would fall through the cracks, his follow through was amazing. His attention to detail while taking photos of your home was something I had never seen before with a real estate agent, it was as though we were getting photographed for a magazine. My wife and I highly recommend Sean as he was amazing to work with and he works tirelessly until the job is done while always looking out for his clients best interest.

If I had one word to sum up my experience with Sean O’Neil it would be awesome. Sean was the realtor from day one that I felt good enough to stitch up a real estate transaction for myself. If I ever had a question concerning my property and the progress in the transaction Sean O’Neil got back to myself in a very timely matter via phone email or text. My next California home I would definitely use Sean.

I’m a homeowner who used Sean for representation on purchasing a house about 5 months ago. From start to finish the experience was very pleasant. He showed us houses that he knew we would like, due to our budget and requirements. Sean made himself available any time we needed him and still have a great relationship with him and his wife. He helped us get financing where others couldn’t help. Not sure if we would of purchased the right home, for us, without him. I’ll always be greatful for his efforts and would recommend him to anyone who wants great representation!

Sean O’Neil is an outstanding RE Agent; I would recommend him highly. Sean sold my brother’s home; did a fantastic job by getting the selling price that my brother not only wanted, but insisted on. Sean found the right buyer to make the sale. Sean made that happen. My brother was very pleased with Sean’s overall performance, and thought of him highly. When we were planning on selling our home, my brother naturally recommended Sean. We meet Sean, and signed him up that day. Sean not only meet our expectations, but exceeded them. Sean made the selling process as easy for us as possible. Sean always communicated with us by telephone and/or text messages with constant updates. He never failed to keep us updated on any and all issues in the entire selling process. We always knew what was going on. That is a extremely important trait for a Real Estate Agent to master when it comes to selling a home – communication skill; and Sean has great communication skills. That in and of itself is a huge plus! Now, my brother-in-law and sister are thinking about selling their home(s). I have already highly recommended Sean O’Neil to be their Real Estate Agent with a referral.
The best recommendation I can think of and to make is that of a fantastic recommendation and Referral! Anyone who is thinking about selling their home, please give Sean O’Neil a call, you will have a professional, dedicated and trustworthy RE Agent helping you throughout the entire process. The bottom line: If I had to do it all over again, Sean O’Neil would be my RE Agent.

I found Sean through a door flyer. I called him for a meeting and was very impressed with his professionalism from the start. The more we worked together on the selling of my home the more impressed I was with Sean. This was the first home I’ve sold and Sean was very patient and thorough in answering any and all questions we had. There was never a time I felt like I didn’t know what was going on with the sale of my home. There were a few issues with the other side of the sale and Sean handled them quickly and professionally. Even the buyers realtor told us how they enjoyed working with Sean. I look to purchase a home in the next couple of years and Sean will definitely be my realtor.

Judy & Mark – Lake Elsinore, CA
___________________________________________________________________________________
This agent is very honest, patient and forth right. His first priority are his clients. I could depend on him to explain everything so that I understood him, he gets back to you promptly and puts pressure on who ever he needs to, to get the job done. He is very professional and knowledgeable and has very good contacts who are just as reliable, making the selling/ buying process a lot smoother. If it wasn’t for his knowledge things could have took a turn for the worst. I went through at least 6 agents to find someone to my standard before I found Sean. I encourage anyone reading this to research thoroughly before choosing an agent, they are very important to the process in my experience or just go with this guy and save your self a lot of stress.
Sean’s experience showed during the selling of my house. I’ve encountered many estate agents in the past, he’s the first one to have been on call when I needed him, not put pressure on me and actually has knowledge of the area he works in. He knows what puts buyers off and how to get results. He has a good team behind him and is very professional. I highly recommend his service.
Adam & Hamideh Cole – Lake Elsinore, CA

I worked with Sean on an out of state move and I must say he and his team were the best I’ve ever worked with. We were relocating from Arizona to California and had a very short time frame to find a house and make the move (about 3 weeks!). Sean took us through the entire process calmly and with the utmost customer service. He anticipated any questions or concerns we might have had, was extremely knowledgeable, had great follow through and an amazing attention to detail. He spotted potential mistakes other people involved in the sale had made and corrected them quickly so our deal went through quickly and seamlessly even though it was out of state. We are very happy with the new house and with the whole experience. Sean made the whole experience seem easy, even when I was a little crazy. He is proactive, patient, professional, and a nice guy, too.
Judy Burns – Lake Elsinore, CA

Sean is a dedicated and a professional agent that goes above and beyond his duties to help and inform his clients. Sean helped us in a few Real Estate transactions and I would highly recommend anyone in the market to buy or sell Real Estate to contact Sean.

In a word, “extraordinary”. I found Sean to be very personable, exceptionally knowledgeable about all aspects of the real estate transaction, and he is one of the most responsive individuals I have had the good fortune to meet. He worked tirelessly and handled every aspect of the transaction flawlessly. I could not be more pleased with the manner in which he listed and sold my property. Sean is indeed a “Real Estate Professional”, as is the staff with which he works. I highly recommend him without any reservation whatsoever.
Gerry Elder – Lake Elsinore, CA

What a spectacular agent!!! During the process of selling our home we encountered several challenges that Sean O’Neil worked at all hours of the day and night to resolve. Be it 3am emails or 9pm runs to our house to deliver documents to us to be viewed and signed to even going to our jobs on multiple occasions to bring forms to us, Sean did above and beyond anything that we could have imagined an agent to do in order to ease the process of selling our home. Being first time sellers there was so very much that we had to learn and so many questions that we asked constantly. Sean’s patience with us and knowledge of the ins and outs of real estate are the reason why we confidently recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!
Craig & Christian Howard – Lake Elsinore, CA
___________________________________________________________________________________
Sean is one of the hardest working guys I know if you need a real estate agent to buy or sell this is your guy! Sean spent 2 months with us looking patiently at a number of houses until we found the perfect one for our large family. His knowledge of the area was great and his response to our calls or needs was immediate. He would call daily with updates or to make sure there was nothing we needed. When any aspect of a property needed to be checked or researched he was on it right away and got us answers to help us make decisions. He is currently selling a home for my parents. His listings are excellent. He has profesional quality pictures of the property listed and flyers for the property are always availible at the house. He worked with landscapers and other trades to get the house in the best shape for the sale and does frequent open houses to get the house exposure. Sean is a hard working guy and he knows his job if you choose him as your agent you will not be sorry and will be adding your recommendation here next to mine.

My name is Ron Hall. I have the pleasure of knowing Sean O’Neil as my realtor for seven months and can attest he is a person of high integrity, diligence, and professionalism. He recently sold my home, which at times, was a challenge and tested his and my patience. There was an issue with the title. Sean went above his call of duty and cleared the matter in spite of it not being his responsibility. I trust his expertise and wisdom. He not only fulfilled his obligations as realtor, but assured a smooth escrow with consistent, frequent, and timely updates to me. I believe he is an exemplary realtor who would unconditionally “go the extra mile” for his clients wholeheartedly and without reservation. Anyone would be fortunate to hire Sean for his services and would know within a short time he would handle business as efficiently and expeditiously as possible. I thank Sean and give him my highest recommendation.

To buyers and sellers at large,
I never write testimonials because few people earn it but the experience we had with Sean warranted me taking the time to let those considering him know how hard Sean worked to help us get into our new home.
When my wife and I were surprised with a little one on the way, we realized our current living situation wasn’t going to handle the needs of a child and we began our search. We contacted a couple realtors including Sean, and had them all searching for places that met our strict criteria. We refused to live anywhere with a HOA, we wanted land, location, and a real $$$ deal. In the months we searched, Sean was the only one that was producing homes that were within our very particular criteria. Most realtors just showed us homes that fit their schedule or needs (backend deals, double ending, etc), in the hopes we would compromise or get tired of the process and buy something close enough, ultimately wasting everyone’s time; but Sean was monitoring the MLS constantly, showing us homes that were exact fits for us, gladly driving an hour each time, to show us the homes we wanted to go see. The house we finally purchased in Aug. of 2012, came across Sean’s system in the wee hours of the morning. At 3a, I received an email from him (not automated, he was at his desk working) that he had found one that hit all our criteria, had JUST listed and was a short sale (a deal). At 7a I responded back and by 10a, Sean had driven an hour to meet us and we were in the house looking at it; and totally loving it. Before noon, our offer was in.
Sean didn’t stop there. There were offers before and after ours, but Sean was able to establish a relationship with the selling agent; securing our offer; and so the short sale purchase process began. This was a difficult purchase because the sellers weren’t actually ready to sell, there was house damage, etc. Sean maintained contact with the selling broker, lenders, title agents, and everyone in between almost daily through what turned out to be a 5 month process. He arranged to have things fixed in the house that the lender wanted done before funding, and spent dozens of hours on the phone with everyone, at times downright fighting for us or correcting someone else’s mistakes. Sean knew all the rules and I’m certain we would have lost the house had we had any other realtor. His depth of knowledge and ability to execute are second to none and the only reason we now live in the house of our dreams.
Do yourself a favor and just call him.

Potential Buyers and Sellers:
I am writing to let you know of the great services I had with Sean And Carrie O’Neil. I would recommend them to everyone and anyone attempting to sell a home or property. Sean listed my home in Murrieta for sale and sold it in three days.
Sean and Carrie were very friendly, thorough, and professional. They dealt with the Buyers, the bank,the inspectors and contractors. This took a great burden off me.
Now not having a home, Sean and Carrie helped me purchase a new home in Apple Valley . They handled the entire purchase in a short time very professionally. Sean and Carrie seemed more like a family than Realtors.
Great job Sean and Carrie. May God always take care and bless you and your family.

Potential buyers or sellers,
I am writing to you to let you know of the service that I had with Sean O’Neil and his TC Carrie O’Neil. I would recommend them to anyone attempting to buy or sell a home. Our family recently moved from Erie, Pennsylvania and needed a home, Sean was patient with us, through the process, we have 3 kids, and his attention to detail was outstanding. He was thorough, attentive, and also very communicative in letting us know exactly what was going on at every step of the way.
We also sold the same house through him, and he sold that house in one weekend!!! He had a buyer, walked him through the process and had it sold quickly. His TC Carrie, was on top of it too, always keeping us in the loop, daily, sometimes hourly and was very prompt when we needed her, and their knowledge was unparalleled to anyone that I have ever known in this industry.
I would recommend Sean to anyone looking to buy or sell property in the Southern California region. His dedication to this art of selling, was demonstrated by his ability to communicate effectively, and promote efficiently. Thank you Sean and Carrie for all you did.
Best Regards,
Rick Massey & Family – Lake Elsinore, California

Sean O’Neil is such a great Realtor!! He helped us so much to get a new house. It is for me and for my family to live in. He was the seller’s Realtor and worked so very hard, so that the house we bought as a short sale could be ours.
There were two banks involved in the deal. It was a very complicated sale, and there was a new crisis every day. Sean worked tirelessly with my Realtor so that we could finally buy our beautiful new house, before it went into foreclosure. Sean was always available, and very responsive to the many problems that would suddenly come up. He worked days, nights and weekends and did what ever he could do to help us finally buy our new house.
We will be forever grateful for all of Sean’s professional knowledge, and hard work in dealing with the banks, and all of the legal problems. It is a very difficult Real Estate market right now for buyers to even find a house to buy. We finally got the house of our dreams. And we want to thank Sean O’Neil for all of his help and kind consideration.
Sincerely,
Sharon Taylor – Winchester, California

Hello,
I have purchased three properties through Sean. He was a bulldog.
He was very diligent following up with the Seller’s agents and looking after my interest. He did a lot of the due diligence for me, working with my inspectors, reading over all the paperwork, and had the expertise to alert me to clauses and terms that I may have missed. I have recommended Sean in the past and would be happy to recommend him to you.

When we first met Sean O’Neil, he was a straight shooter letting us know if acquiring a certain house was going to be a lot of trouble or not. Sean repeatedly bent over backwards to get the answers to our questions and to make himself available to us for tours. Not only did Sean help us find our home, he also pressured the brokers and banks to make sure all deadlines were met and to keep us out of limbo. We have bought one house through Sean and have short sold one house through Sean. Sean’s performance through both deals was amazing, short selling our home within 4 months while a neighbor had spent over a year trying to short sell their home during the same period. Many of our friends have used Sean for their short sales and purchases and like us, have had everything go as Sean said it would go. I continue to recommend Sean to everyone I know. I honestly don’t understand how he finds the time to do all the legwork.
Sincerely,
Eddie Hernandez – Murrieta, California

We recently purchased a home in Murrieta, California and Sean and Carrie O’Neil (husband and wife) did an outstanding job with the entire process. I’d like to take this opportunity to personally refer Sean O’Neil as an excellent realtor. We were residing overseas at the time of the purchase and Sean was extremely on top of everything. It was a HUD home and they went above and beyond to guide us and figure out alternative ways to fix any issues we ran into. They work extremely well together and were in constant communication with one another, including me.
Because of the distance, there were moments when I felt like we would hit a road block but Sean always managed to find ways to fix the problems. In fact, at one point, I recall telling him “I can’t keep up with you”. He seemed to know what was going on ‘always’ and stayed several steps ahead throughout the entire process . He wouldn’t hesitate to pick up the phone and ask questions on my behalf. I would furthermore add that at times he made me feel like I was his only client at the moment. Should you ever need a realtor, don’t hesitate to call Sean and Carrie. Their professionalism and integrity to find you the perfect home will leave you completely satisfied. Once again, I highly recommend their services. Happy house hunting!
Sincerely,
Jerry & Belinda Lopez – Murrieta, California

Sean & Carrie,
We can’t thank you enough for all the work you did helping us buy our first home. You consistently went above and beyond the call of duty, and we sincerely appreciate the level of care, professionalism, and kindness you showed us. It’s so clear that you’re amazing at what you do – you worked your butts off, and it meant the world to us.
A million thanks!

Sean and his team were great! They helped me get a property at an incredibly low price when homes were very difficult to get. Who could ask for more? They also helped me throughout the buying process and when there were problems Sean took care of them without any trouble. He was always available to answer my questions and he kept me informed of everything as it was happening. I am very grateful to Sean for helping me get my home and recommend him to anyone. Thank you Sean!

Sean helped me through a difficult short sale having to negotiate with both Wells Fargo and CAL HFA on the same loan. After the sale was concluded he also helped to ensure that I made the proper filings to avoid the IRS cancellation of debt tax which I knew was associated with short sales. I was worried because the IRS had sent a bill to one of my coworkers who had to short sale his home a year before with another Realtor, and I didn’t want the same thing to happen to me. Sean helped me understand everything and I made it through in large part thanks to his efforts.

If you want a great Realtor I suggest Sean O’Neil. Sean really listened to our “wants” in a home and was always eager to show us property we wanted to see. He was always there for us with any questions or concerns we had. He was always friendly, efficient and knowledgeable. Sean looked out for us and never blew us off. I always recommend him to anyone I know who is in need of a great agent because of his work ethic and character! Thanks Sean for making our dreams a reality!

Buying or selling a house can be a daunting task, however it makes it easier when you have an agent working for you that you can trust. Sean O’Neil was continually working hard on our behalf. Sean was always quick to respond to any questions or concerns that we had and was very knowledgeable. We appreciated his working around our busy schedule especially because we had a specific time frame in which we were looking to sell our house. He has a great personality, is friendly and is very professional. My husband and I would be happy to recommend him to anyone.

Dear Sean,
I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the superior customer service you have given me to acquire my foreclosure in Spring Valley Lake in September 2010. I saw the beautiful lakefront property on July 4, and you offered to drive the 100 mile distance to meet me, but I refused. You came the next day and patiently surveyed every square inch of the property for two hours to compile a list for the bank to complete. My offer was accepted. It took two months to complete, and despite another party buying the house out from under me, you offered me a multitude of emails and phone calls, sometimes six or more a day. You and your wife worked tirelessly to offer me other alternatives and eventually my home came on the market again.
You got the bank to put on a new tile roof, remove the unsightly wallpaper and thoroughly repaint the interior, and had new carpeting installed. I am proud to tell you that even though property values have drastically declined, the value of my house is now about $70,000 more than I paid for it. I am currently having my loan refied to an even better rate than we were able to get at the time. Additionally when I was hospitalized shortly before the end of escrow, you kept close contact with my two adult children to complete and record the sale.
You also helped me gain back my condo in Alhambra, an extra ninety miles you drove, because my unscrupulous tenants refused to quit the property at the end of the lease. You worked with my HOA and the authorities there to rectify the situation. You also advised me on how to prepare that property for future sale.
Despite the distance from your home to that condo, I will definitely use you as my realtor when I sell it in the near future. I have on occasion called you for advice on real estate, and your quick and friendly responses have been valued and appreciated. My current home is the sixth home that I have bought in my lifetime. No one else has ever given me anywhere even remotely close to the service that you, Sean, have. I wholeheartedly and with no reservations recommend you,Sean, as the best realtor anyone could ever have the luck to find.
Very sincerely,
Gloria A Brambilla – Victorville, California

I was looking to sale my home in the Lake Elsinore Canyon Hills area. Almost like clock work and perfect timing, I came home to a flyer on my door from Sean O’Neil. I called the number on the flyer and Mr. O’Neil answered. I told him that I was looking at putting my home up for sale. Literally the same day, Sean O’ Neil was at my house taking pictures in order to list my home on the MLS. The very next day when the listing for my home was posted, it started receiving offers. A week later, I accepted an offer and a week after that my home was sold. From the day I listed my home for sale to the day it was sold was literally 2 weeks. Hands down, the O’Neil team were very professional and always kept me posted on the status of the sale of my home. I recommend anyone who is looking to sale or even buy a home to give Sean O’ Neil a call.

When my husband and I decided to sell our home, we were very hesitant to select an agent based on our past experience. Sean is professional, diligent, a great communicator, and always takes the extra step. The moment we met I could tell he was going to have our best interest at heart throughout the process. Selling your first home is a traumatic experience; having a great agent is the key to a successful sale. We were never pressured to make any decisions, he gave professional advice, and he always wanted to be sure we were comfortable with every decision we made. He and Carrie make a great team. When I decide to buy or sell my next home – Sean will be my first contact. They always stay one step ahead which makes for a smooth painless process for all parties. You will not be sorry – unless you choose another agent.
Thanks again guys!!
