“We cannot say enough about the incredible dynamic duo of Joy Bender and Rob Aumann at LUXURYSOCALREALTY. Because of their tenacity, we had almost no negotiation and bought the full oceanview, three-bedroom condo with a large deck for an incredibly reasonable price. We first began working with Joy and Rob in 2017 when they represented us on buying a condo in La Jolla. Because of their tenacity, we had almost no negotiation and bought the full oceanview, three-bedroom condo with a large deck for an incredibly reasonable price. You know you have a great real estate agent when the seller's agent (a well-known La Jolla name in real estate) takes the time to pull you aside and tell you that your agent is fantastic. Yes, that happened. Fast forward to 2021. We have three big boys and needed a little more space and were ready to commit to an actual home. The challenge to this is that we were living full-time in Austin. As places came on the market, Joy and Rob would rush over to FaceTime a tour for us. When we had questions later, they would be FaceTiming us from the property again in under an hour, even when we were texting at 7am. Soon, we found the place. However, there were already 7 offers on it. Thanks to that tenacity and deep knowledge of real estate strategy, we ended up ultimately getting the house over 13 final offers! And guess what--our offer was not even the highest bid, but Joy and Rob had put together the best offer using other tactics. Now we are in a dream home. And the condo? Joy and Rob sold it for 11% over asking in three days!”

We were searching Google for a San Diego real estate agent
to sell our luxury home and found Rob and Ty Aumann. The reviews were favorable
and led us to inviting him to our home to discuss their approach to marketing.
We liked all that was shared in terms of their strategy, pricing and most
importantly, their focus in delivering on our particular needs.
We had an open house kick off weekend which drew tremendous interest and within
days, secured five offers. They explained each offer and shared their perspective.
We selected the offer that best met our needs and situation. Three weeks later
we seamlessly closed on our home and purchased another as we were relocating.
If you want true professionals that will respect you and your home as well as
be there every step along the way, we highly recommend contacting Team Aumann
at LUXURYSOCALREALTY.

What an experience working with Rob and Joy! We’d been stalking the higher end of the La Jolla real estate market for about a year, so we had a decent idea of what we were looking for. Still - we were buying into a very competitive market. Yet these two consistently got us into pocket listings, dutifully accompanied us to the many “probably not but we should look anyway” showings, and gave us expert guidance on the unique drivers - and detractors - of value on the luxury homes we were seeing. Not once did they try to push us or make us feel uncomfortable. Not once did we feel like it was a transactional relationship with them - entirely the opposite: we felt like they cared for our home purchase as they would for their best friends. When we did land on our eventual purchase, it was the day it hit the market. We were one of multiple offers, but with Rob and Joy’s guidance, ours was the winner. But that was just the start - thanks to their process and their network of vendors, we were able to negotiate a price discount. They were also instrumental in managing the relationship between the mortgage broker and seller’s agent - the process took quite a bit longer than expected because of our complicated financial/business structure, and we are 100% certain that the seller’s agent would have pushed the seller to walk away too soon, without Rob and Joy’s efforts on our behalf. All’s well that ends well, though, and everyone was thrilled the day the deal closed. We can’t imagine a better San Diego realtor. And while we don’t typically write online reviews, it’d be criminal not to do so for these two! They work insanely hard for their clients, and we feel very lucky to have found them.
