Phenomenal Experience 

"Having bought and sold homes in seven different states, I can say without hesitation, Judy Dunning is the best real estate agent I’ve ever worked with. This was not just another transaction. It was the sale of a family home that had been in our lives for 61 years. The process could easily have been overwhelming and deeply emotional — even depressing at times — but she handled every step with such grace, expertise, and steadiness that it made all the difference. Her knowledge of the neighborhood was invaluable. She understands the market at a level that goes far beyond statistics. She knows the nuances, the buyers, and exactly how to position a home for success. All of which contributed to the home selling for top dollar. What truly set her apart was how she managed the entire process from beginning to end. She coordinated outstanding estate sale professionals who made what could have been an exhausting experience feel seamless and organized. Every detail was handled thoughtfully and efficiently. I genuinely could not have done this without her. She combines deep market expertise with warmth, compassion, and absolute professionalism. I always felt supported, well-advised, and fully represented. I would work with her again without hesitation and recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for not just a skilled agent, but an exceptional one."

ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…ā˜… Excellent Experience

"I had an excellent experience working with Judy. From the beginning, advising and organizing a refresh needed to prepare my home for sale. Judy did an amazing job on coordinating it all, we used Compass Concierge. What started out as a smooth sale, became challenging. We had some issues presented involving my HOA which she handled in a very smooth and professional manner to resolve them. She has an incredible knowledge in all aspects of selling a home. She was always right there, available to answer my questions and concerns. She kept me informed on everything going on. I couldn't have been more pleased and excited when my escrow finally closed. I was very fortunate to have worked with Judy as my real estate agent."

Maurine S, Carlsbad, CA

ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…ā˜…ā˜… Outstanding Job

"Judy did an outstanding job representing us in our home purchase. She helped us in formulating our winning offer. Once in contract, Judy quickly arranged all of the inspections that we had to complete in a very short time window. When items were found during inspection she negotiated for appropriate credits. We would highly recommend Judy as a realestate agent! We so enjoyed working with her!"

"Judy is amazing. She got to know us, and helped us find a home in a community that checked all of our boxes. Buying a house can be stressful, but Judy's knowledge and responsiveness put us at ease and the whole experience was smooth and enjoyable." -kdnorthcott0, Santa Ana, CA

"We bought our home in Carlsbad with very little knowledge of the area. We came from Minnesota and Judy and Dianne did a terrific job educating us on the North County areas and helping us navigate the wild and crazy 2021 real estate market! She kept us positive, realistic and confident that we would find the right home for us. When it did come across, we were prepared and stood out from the rest of the buyers. Home buying is an emotional process, and we are so thankful we had them helping us the whole way. Thanks Judy and Dianne!" J & L Gerritsen, Carlsbad, CA

"I've worked with many agents in the last 27 years. You are a true professional. It has been such a pleasure to work with you. My only regret is that I didn't meet with you in person. The Internet has changed that personal contact which I so so miss. Maybe our next transaction will be face to face. Either way, I look forward to working with you again. - Sharon Laciura Star Real Estate"

"Judy was amazing to work with during my home purchase. She was always there to answer any questions, always there to let me in to see the house again, or take measurements. It is so refreshing to work with a real estate agent that really makes the extra effort for her client. Judy invests both her time and energy into making either buying a home or selling your home, a positive experience for all involved. I would recommend Judy to all my friends, family , and co-workers." - J. Di Tolla, Newport Beach"

"Judy was amazing. She developed a strategic plan for the sale of a condo in Newport Beach that brought in multiple offers in one week, resulting in a completed sale a couple weeks later. Judy handled every detail along the way & she was so very sensitive to our needs in a difficult situatiion. And all of this was accomplished while we were out of state. She has our highest recommendation." - M. Kavaney, Arizona

"This is the second transaction we have used Judy for in less than 12 months and she's amazing. We were negotiating and looking while living cross-country and the entire transaction was smooth and efficient. We are still new to the Orange County area and Judy has guided us to perfect neighborhoods for our family. She has gone above and behind to make our big move easy!" - Molly P, Bayshores/Newport Beach

"I recently had one of my investment properties for lease on Lido Isle and was getting very limited interest for over 30+ days. After hiring Judy Dunning with Seaside Realty, she had the property marketed on the MLS as well as multiple affiliate real estate websites. Within a week we had the property leased to a very qualified tenant. Judy is easy to work with and did a great job getting my property leased quickly…well worth the money. Thank you Judy!"- Mark Coleman

"We had an excellent experience with Judy! We are relocating from across the country and she was so helpful in narrowing down neighborhoods and finding areas that really met all our requests. We really challenged her geographic borders and asked her to research A LOT of areas. She did so very happily and did a lot or preview work, which allowed us to make the best use of our time when we were in town. She was quick and responsive and really went above and beyond to make sure we found what we wanted...and we did! She uses her community connections to get the best information and her attention to detail during the offer and closing process was flawless. We are SO appreciative of her hard work and help!"
