Becoming a SoCal homeowner is one of the most outstanding achievements of my life so far, and I couldn't have made it happen without Liz. I moved to SoCal about 1.5 years ago and had so many plans of hanging out in all different parts of San Diego county to make an informed decision about where I wanted to look for my dream home. Unfortunately, 2020 threw a bit of a wrench in my plans, but luckily, I had Liz as my agent. Liz spent the initial part of our relationship getting to know who I am and my interests. She set up a personalized site to assess properties, and I was able to leave notes to tailor what properties might interest me. Liz's attention to detail and her willingness to share the info you, as a customer, might not know to look for builds confidence in your relationship. It was evident that she was genuinely passionate about helping me find the perfect home and not focused on just a quick sell. She is extremely thorough and a great communicator, which is very important to me when making such a massive purchase with many complexities. Once we found the perfect home, the process went extremely smooth, and everything went according to plan. Liz set expectations upfront and prepped me to ensure I knew our tentative timelines and what I needed at each stage from submitting our competitive offer, negotiations, and finally closing. Lastly, I would like to note that Liz was very diligent about all safety protocols regarding COVID to ensure health and safety at all times. I am eternally grateful for Liz.

When we decided to buy our home, we knew the first call we had to make was to Liz Biala. Her reputation of excellence and efficiency proceeds her. From our very first call, we felt confident that Liz was the realtor for us; she was direct, knowledgeable, clear, always on time and motivated to help us find our forever home. Purchasing a home is stressful, let alone in a pandemic and nationwide lockdown! From the ever changing COVID regulations to the competitive market, Liz was on top of it all. She went above and beyond to help us view properties when we couldn't be in town and made sure all of our showings were safe and simple. After actively searching with us for months, we found our dream home and Liz helped us beat out 17 other offers to seal the deal! She understands the industry and gets the job done! We couldn't be happier. It truly was her professionalism, patience, talent, knowledge and skill that landed us in our forever home. We are truly grateful to Liz for making it the most simple and painless process possible!

Words cannot express the gratitude I have for Liz. She has made my escrow that was extremely difficult due to COVID so much smoother. Without her, I am not sure it would have closed. As a matter of fact, when all professionals did not know where to turn, Liz had the expertise and creative ideas that saved the day. Even more so, I felt like I had a friend with me for the ride and that means EVERYTHING when you are struggling in between 2 homes. She was extremely reliable, always available and ready to give expert advice and negotiate in a way that would make the transaction a win win for all. It was not an easy undertaking and Liz helped navigate towards a smooth close of escrow. I would recommend Liz to everyone that is looking to buy or sell. She knows the market and how to get you the best possible scenario that will make the other side want to commit and stick it thru even when lending or condition of property negotiations get difficult. Thank you Liz. You are the best. Hands down.

I'm a local Realtor & my client recently placed an offer on one of Liz's listings. I was very impressed after our first conversation as she asked some relevant and specific questions about my clients financing. Liz wanted to ensure it was solid to avoid any fall outs and protect her client. After I was able to satisfy the questions & provide a complete offer. She was very quick in responding and in fact had a response to my clients offer the very next day before noon. Which was awesome because we submitted the offer just the night before. Through out the escrow process. We all had such a great experience & this was a smooth escrow. Liz and her team were very professional, effective, efficient and great communicators. I've been in this business for over 10 yrs now and this is the first yelp review I've felt inspired to provide. If you're thinking of using Liz. As a professional in this myself I highly recommend her. She provides service with a spirit of excellence that is rare in this business. God bless you Liz!

My husband and I had the pleasure of having Liz represent us for both the sale of our home and purchase of our forever home. We just closed escrow in February and the entire process was completely painless. She really took the time to get to know us both and ensure that we got exactly what we wanted in a home, in the area we wanted and in our price range. Liz worked tirelessly and went above any beyond. Her professionalism and industry expertise were invaluable. We found Liz to be extremely knowledgeable and attentive and completely sensitive to how stressful the sale and purchase of a home is. I would highly recommend Liz without any reservation for the sale and/or purchase of your home!

We were in our house for over 34 years and when it became time to downsize we asked Liz Biala to help us. Liz helped our son find and relocate into two houses over the years and he and his wife were very happy with her work. We now understand why. Liz realized immediately that leaving our house would not be easy unless and until we found a home that made us excited about leaving. She was very patient and always available by email, text or phone, steering us to properties that fit our requirements and honest in her opinions about them. Most impressive was her knowledge about the true value of homes, including potential for resale, regardless of their listing price. She epitomizes what you hope for in an agent helping you make one of the more important decisions in your life. We are grateful not only for her patience, knowledge, honesty and availability but also for her professional yet friendly approach throughout the whole process. Thank you Liz.

Liz "gets" it! She's responsive, knowledgeable, and very savvy and we're thrilled that she helped our family find our forever home in San Diego. Our homebuying process began while we were living out of state. She really listened, asked the right questions, and focused on homes that met our criteria and neighborhoods that were a good fit for our family's lifestyle. She also previewed and videotaped many homes for us so that we could prioritize and visit the best ones each time we were in San Diego before the move.
Once we had an accepted offer, she worked tirelessly to get great inspectors, plumbers, contractors, roofers, and foundation expert bids as we worked through the inspection and disclosure process.
It's a tough market for buyers and Liz moved swiftly to get us into our dream home. In the end, we got all of our must-haves and our long list of "wishlist" items -- all in a less-than-30-day escrow!

We believe that if you're looking for the right realtor to help you get your dream home Liz Biala is the best! Her savvy advice helped us sell our house for top dollar so we could afford the new home of our dreams. She gave us the total HGTV experience guiding us through simple updates and stylish staging to make our "old house" shine & sell in less than a week for more than anything similar in the neighborhood. We are so grateful and so excited that she helped us beat out the competition to get us a new home that checked off everything on our wish list in our target neighborhood!

My husband and I have been working with Liz for over ten years and we can not say enough about her!! Liz has guided us through the purchase and sale of two of our homes. Liz entered our lives when my husband and I were newlyweds. Now, as a family of 5, Liz continues to cater the home-buying/selling process to our family. She makes the process smooth for us all while making our home look absolutely beautiful. We cannot thank Liz and her team enough for all of her hard work that went into selling our home. The best part of all is that despite the market or time of year, Liz has always managed to bring in MANY offers for our home with over asking offers.

Liz held our hands for over a year so that we ended up with the perfect home. She was really patient with so many market changes and led us to a completely different type of home than we first envisioned, but that completely met our needs.

The home we bought was short sale and, let me tell you, there were lots of hoops to jump through with the bank! Despite all the hoops we encountered, our home buying experience was smooth and relatively easy thanks to Liz. Whenever a problem with the bank during escrow arose, Liz never concerned us with it until she already had a solution. She was professional and patient and the fact that she truly loves what she does shows in her passion for finding the right home at the right price.

Liz is fantastic. She was very patient with my wife and I during a very long housing search. She has great knowledge of the properties in San Diego, and can definitely help find you a place you'll love. She is especially good with providing you lots of data on previous sales in the area to make sure that you get a fair price.

Liz is outstanding. She guided me through the entire process and went beyond the traditional real estate agent. She handled so many things that were my responsibility, but that I couldn't handle with my too-busy schedule. I would recommend her to anyone!

Liz was beyond excellent help for our CA Real Estate needs. From the moment we met Liz she took charge and made selling our CA property an easy, timely experience. We live in another state, so her help was critical to our sell. Liz immediately helped us with professional recommendations, contractors, repairs, inspections, approvals, staging, all of which resulted in the timely sell of our property. After our initial meeting with Liz, we did not have to make another trip to CA. Liz was always available for phone calls, and provided very friendly, professional advice. We all highly recommend Liz, and will definitely use her again.

Liz took much of the stress out of my first home purchase. She was generous with her time and showed me as many homes as possible to familiarize me with the market. She quickly understood my needs and directed me to the ideal neighborhoods in San Diego. Liz made me confident I would be able to pull the trigger when I saw the right home. I almost overlooked the home I purchased until Liz suggested it was a great fit! Liz quickly closed the deal and worked effortlessly with my lender, the seller's agent, and everyone else involved. Liz is personable, responsive, patient, and knowldegeable! Thanks Liz!
