Client Testimonials

ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…
ā€œWe were first-time homebuyers, and Josh made what could have been a stressful and overwhelming process
feel manageable and even exciting. From the very beginning, he stood out with his intelligence, strong
communication skills, and endless patience. The journey to finding our home was long and had its challenges,
but he never gave up on us.


Josh guided us every step of the way, always making sure we understood the process, answering all our
questions, and advocating for us. His experience and knowledge really showed — we always felt like we
were in good hands. No matter how discouraged we felt at times, he kept showing up with a positive
attitude and a determination to help us find the right place.


Thanks to his hard work, dedication, and support, we’re now proud homeowners. We’re incredibly grateful for
everything he did and would highly recommend him to anyone — especially first-time buyers who need
someone who’s both professional and genuinely caring.ā€œ - Patrick, Buyer.

ā€œWithout getting into great detail I want to say if your looking for a realtor that honestly cares about what
your looking for and helps you find your home after countless visits to potential homes never giving you any
sign of frustration then I recommend Josh on an extremely high level. Looking for a home for one year after
quite a few bad realtor experiences. You never know what it's like to do deal with a truly amazing realtor
until you worked with Josh. I can say this after months of bad realtors and then spending the last few months
with Josh as he helped us and tolerated our high demands and many disappointing views of homes that
didnt work out. You will see the difference after you switch to Josh for a realtor experience that is about your family needs and not the realtors.ā€œ - Mike, Buyer

Josh, our Real Estate Agent, demonstrated exceptional professionalism and care throughout the entire process. He was proactive, detail-oriented, and always ensured everything was on track.

When the market slowed, making it difficult to sell our property, Josh provided honest and insightful advice. He suggested we hold off on selling until conditions improved and recommended renting the property to minimize potential losses. He even connected us with a colleague who handled the rental process efficiently. In less than three weeks, our property was rented out successfully.

Josh’s commitment to his clients is truly remarkable. He goes above and beyond, not only excelling in his role but also providing tailored solutions that fit his clients’ needs. We are thoroughly satisfied and highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell property. Thank you, Josh, for your outstanding service! - Emer, Seller/Lessor

About Josh
The Beginning

Born into a family of entrepreneurs, Josh learned early on that true success begins with putting people first. Raised in the vibrant city of Metropolitan Manila, the Philippines, he was shaped by a culture that values resilience, creativity, and compassion. Those early roots gave him a grounded perspective, a worldly outlook, and a deep sense of care for the people and places that influenced his journey.

Skill and Hard Work at a young age

At just 19, Josh founded his first company—a restaurant and service business—driven by his natural ability to build not only brands, but also meaningful relationships. Over the past decade, what started as a bold venture from a teenager became a cornerstone of his community in Manila, reflecting his vision, dedication, and heart for serving others.

Real Estate Journey

Working in real estate has always been Josh’s dream. As a true patron of culture, lifestyle, and the arts, he saw the industry as the perfect stage to bring together his managerial skills, artistic vision, and— above all—his deep desire to serve people meaningfully. From the very start, his passion for the craft shone through in extraordinary ways. Within just three months of stepping into the business, Josh had already transacted his first three deals—an achievement that reflected not only skill, but also his relentless drive and heart for his clients. And in only eight months, his dedication was recognized with the prestigious LuxeSF Rising Star Award in the San Francisco Bay Area. This honor celebrated not just his record-breaking performance but also the impact of his authenticity, passion, and growing reputation as one of the industry’s most inspiring emerging talents.

The Purpose

For Josh, success in real estate is rooted in compassion for the people he serves, clear and honest communication, meticulous attention to detail, and a commitment to lifelong learning. His mission is to make every client’s journey seamless, enjoyable, and deeply memorable.


 
ā€œOwning a home is one of the biggest decisions you’ll make in your life. My passion is helping people find their dream destination—a place where they can live, grow, and create lasting memories.ā€ – Josh
