I highly recommend John Tu as an agent for buying, selling or renting.” - John C. - Irvine, CA


★★★★★

“John was nothing short of amazing to work with. He knew exactly what we wanted and didn’t try to change our minds at all. He provided me with information and detail that I never would have known which made the process from a to z seamless.” - Stephan K. - Irvine, CA


★★★★★

“We recently made the decision to move our children from private to public school, which meant finding a rental home in a specific area as quickly as possible. While many realtors overlooked us because we were only looking to rent and not buy, John stood out immediately. He returned my call right away and was incredibly friendly, helpful, and professional from the start. John took the time to answer all of our questions, followed up promptly, and was flexible with scheduling. When we met him in person to receive the keys, he was thorough, kind, and never made us feel rushed or unimportant—even though this wasn’t a high-commission deal. He treated us with genuine care and respect, which made a stressful transition much easier. I highly recommend John to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate realtor. I will absolutely be referring friends and family to him, and when the time comes to purchase a home or investment property, John will be our first call.” - Lana P. - Huntington Beach, CA


★★★★★

“John assisted me through the home purchasing and rental processes with a completely professional and positive attitude. Everything he promised came true -- and more. Thorough, fair and thoughtful are all qualities that John possesses as a real estate agent. He was always on my side and protected my interests at every opportunity. I could not recommend John more highly.” - Will A. - Irvine, CA


★★★★★

“John is very detailed and supportive. I moved to CA from out of state and he helped me with everything. He is able to show my apartment virtually, being a great middleman man communicating with the homeowners, checking every appliance in the apartment, and notifying any possible issues in advance. He is not only an agent but more of a friend. You can see his passion and energy while working with him. Will recommend him to anyone I know!” - Shao L. - Irvine, CA


★★★★★

“John was by far the most detail oriented, respectful, and professional agent that I’ve met. He showed two rentals to us and it was exactly what we were looking for. The whole process from searching, showing, application, move-in to final inspections was more than smooth and breezy. He even celebrated our move in by a well written post card and wine! The communication with John was the easiest and most delightful. I never had to care about the details because he dealt with them all; all I need to do was clicking on some DocuSign on my fingertips :). Thank you John for your service and I highly recommend John for any of your real estate needs.” - Fuheng D. - Irvine, CA


★★★★★

“When I first met John, he was my opponent at the final of an athletic tournament. He said he's a Realtor; I asked him for his business card and said "I'll give you a call in about a year." One year later, I gave him a call and asked him if he could help me buy a house. A few weeks later, we closed on a house--the home of my dreams. I couldn't have done it without John. His expediency and punctuality, his knowledge and expertise, and above all, his kindness and generosity all contributed to a smooth and seamless experience. To wit, when I had questions, he had answers. When I had doubts, he had reassurances. When I was overconfident, he advised me to take more time to think things through. But most importantly, he treated me with respect and esteem, he took great time and care to explain things to me, and he listened to my worries and concerns. When I first met John, he was my opponent at the final of an athletic tournament. He's now my Realtor, my adviser, and also my friend. I highly recommend John for all things real estate.” - Thien L. - Bakersfield, CA


★★★★★

You're truly a great agent and an even better person!” - Thi N. - Fountain Valley, CA
