“I am Judge Jonathan T. Colby and I proudly and highly recommend Patty Cohen as your real estate agent. I have been fortunate to have worked with and been represented by Patty more than four (4) times on luxury La Jolla property transactions. She is highly knowledgeable as to multi-million dollar real property deals and Patty gives it everything she has. Patty Cohen is so smart, has great integrity and exhibits true professionalism. It is apparent that Patty is shown great respect by other highly reputable real estate agents. My family and I highly recommend that you retain Patty Cohen on your next real estate transaction.”

“I started working with Patty based off a recommendation from friends who I know are tough to please. I thought, if Patty can please them, this will be great for me. I had heard that she helped several of their friends with homes, and all were happy. I didn’t know what could be so special about an agent. After working with her, I can summarize her in one word: tremendous. She’s extremely knowledgeable, has tons of experience, knows the local agents and scene, can raise red flags for you, and also tell you when to back away from a home. She is also endlessly patient, will walk you through every step, and you’ll never feel you are doing it alone. Above that, she has encyclopedic knowledge of San Diego and working professionals who can help you. If Patty doesn’t know a person or the answer to something, she’ll find out. She gets the job done. It’s her MO. Patty worries about things so you don’t have to, and she stays organized and professional even when other players are not. I would work with Patty, and only Patty, again and highly recommend her to anyone.”

“The process was completely seamless, professional and steeped in total trust. Trust in Patty’s knowledge of the market as a whole, our La Jolla market specifically, trust in her marketing and networking skills, and trust in her suggestions to ensure a top selling price and ultimate top offer. She sold our home in 3 days for over asking price! We were actually away while she handled each and every necessary detail during the entire process. She saved us from so many possible headaches and pitfalls that can often come up during the sales process. We would never consider buying a new home or selling another one without her representation”

“Patty and her team were extremely professional, energetic and responsive. The listing was absolutely fabulous with amazing photos and superior video. Once the property listed we received multiple offers and sold over the asking price! We truly believe that the listing details, staging, and overall presentation of the property contributed to the sale. Patty went above and beyond during closing to ensure we closed on time as well. We have already recommended Patty Cohen and her team to several others. If you're looking for professional results with a sale contact Patty!”

“Patty Cohen's professionalism and years of experience as a real estate agent were instrumental in helping us sell our Del Mar house. Patty put together a game plan that resulted in the house selling for $250K more than we had expected. Patty's staging team worked to maximize the impact of each dollar we spent. Her marketing plan ensured our property was visible to affluent buyers across the country. Patty's pricing strategy, negotiation skills and attention to detail were also instrumental to a smooth closing. Finally, Patty was very pleasant to work with. She is an excellent communicator, who provided frequent updates and respond immediately to any requests. I would highly recommend Patty anyone seeking a top-notch Realtor”

“We were looking for a vacation property in SD and we were directed to Patty Cohen. Patty & her son, Daniel, spent a day showing us properties and each would have fit our needs. Based on our comments during the day she recognized what we were looking for and then showed us a condo in La Jolla, which we loved and purchased. When we were ready to relocate permanently to CA 5 yrs. later we realized we needed a single family home. Patty came through again and found us our new home and sold our condo. We would highly recommend Patty to anyone looking to relocate or sell their home. She is personable, engaging & professional.”
- The Moore Family (11/19)

★★★★★
“We worked with Patty to sell our home and on the rental of a property. Throughout both transactions, her counsel was well-reasoned and extraordinarily helpful. She took great care to understand our objectives and relative priorities, and clearly used that input to guide us through each opportunity. Patty is extremely well-connected in San Diego and put her relationships to good work helping us find the right buyer and potential tenant. We were very happy with both the process and the outcome, and couldn't recommend her more highly”

“Patty is a pleasure to work with and expert at what she does. This was our second transaction with her and she delivered, selling our home in just 5 days with a full price offer. She let us know what to do to prepare it for the best outcome making our house shine above others that were not moving in the area. We give Patty the highest marks and do not hesitate to recommend her."

“Patty Cohen impressed us from the very first meeting. She came well prepared with years of experience, market analysis, neighborhood specific comps and the highest level of professionalism. We immediately noticed that Patty was an excellent listener and communicator and that she would be hands on and responsible for every detail for the entire engagement. The marketing materials were outstanding and the home was thoughtfully presented to likely buyers inside and outside the neighborhood including to her extensive client list. Patty communicated with us daily and was accessible throughout the process. It is not surprising that Patty Cohen is one of San Diego's most successful real estate teams!"

“Patty was an extremely expert realtor. She had lots of knowledge of the market, was very patient and was creative in finding ways to find a home that would fit our needs (contacting fellow realtors, being very proactive for us in our search, etc.). She supported us wonderfully throughout the purchase process, from the first house visits to getting the coverage we were supposed to with the home warranty."

“When it came time to find an agent for our long distance move we chose Patty due to her strong performance in the areas we were looking. But that was only the beginning. Patty worked tirelessly to understand our criteria, develop strategies in a difficult market, and attend to our every need. In an environment where timing is everything, Patty responded nearly immediately to every request and cheerfully accommodated our desire to be very involved in the technical aspects of the search and purchase. She never lost her cheerful attitude in helping us find "the one." We wholeheartedly recommend Patty for your next purchase in San Diego."

“We live in the Napa Valley. Seven years ago we were looking with another broker in La Jolla when we encountered Patty Cohen at a property she had listed. It was a remarkable experience. Here was a knowledgeable, totally transparent broker pointing out both the good and bad aspects of the property. Five transactions later Patty is still our trusted friend and broker. Last month she represented both buyer and seller in selling our condo and was just and fair beyond expectations. We love you Patty"

“When working with most people, you take the bad with the good and hope that it all works out in the end. Working with Patty Cohen wasn’t like that. We enjoyed every one of our interactions with her! We are experienced real-estate buyers and sellers and have worked with over 12 realtors in the last 15 years. Patty is at the very top of our list. Her experience is fantastic and negotiating skills superb. Her knowledge of the SD area is amazing, but equally important to us is her knowledge of other Realtors — an often undervalued asset. Beyond professional interactions, ‘Aunt Patty’ became a favorite of our kids, and we look forward to spending time with her. Whenever we buy a new home, it will unquestionably be with Patty.”

She is a relationship-driven professional with high attention to detail and put all her energy and knowledge into finding our dream home. Her professionalism and patience made our year-long search pass smoothly in a hot market. Patty is knowledgeable throughout San Diego, well informed on market pricing, and guided us through multiple offers to a successful transaction. Five stars really isn’t enough — highly recommended!”

“This letter is to offer our highest recommendation for the real estate services provided by Patty Cohen. She effectively marketed and sold our home in the toughest real estate market in years. From arming us with information on comparable homes to closing the deal without missing a detail, we were completely confident in her service. Ms. Cohen is also a personable and friendly professional whom we hope to know for many years to come. We plan to use her again and recommend her to friends and family.”

“My husband and I worked with Patty Cohen to find and purchase our first home. She came highly recommended by a friend, who described her as a real estate professional with a fierce reputation of getting the job done and being a great client advocate. Throughout our 9-month search, Patty was incredibly patient and responsive. She arranged tours quickly, kept us informed during offers, negotiated a generous credit when issues arose, and fully supported us when we chose to walk away. When we found our dream home, Patty expertly guided us through a multiple counter-offer situation, explained every step of escrow, and handled nearly everything for us. At closing, she even hired a crew to clean and prepare the home. We are now living in our dream home thanks to Patty, and she still checks in on us. That truly shows her dedication to her clients, not just the sale. I highly recommend Patty Cohen!”

“When we decided to sell our family home of over 50 years, Patty Cohen and her team made sure we were well taken care of every step of the way. We were no longer living in La Jolla, yet Patty handled everything—from finding the best buyer and managing contractors to overseeing details involved in selling a home remotely. She checked in regularly, was thoughtful about the emotional nature of the sale, and fought hard to get the best outcome rather than taking the easy route. Patty and her team went above and beyond, showing kindness, patience, and true dedication throughout the entire process.”

“Patty Cohen was personally recommended to us when we were seeking a realtor to purchase a home in San Diego. We have just closed escrow and had such a wonderful experience with Patty that we wanted to share it. Patty exceeded every expectation with her knowledge of San Diego, expertise in real property deals, patience, and responsiveness. She immediately understood what we were looking for and never tried to impose popular tastes on us. Patty previewed countless homes, guided us through inspections, proactively negotiated with the seller’s broker, and managed every step of the process with care and transparency. She negotiated a price well below list and within our budget, and we could not be happier. Her service could honestly not be any better — as we say in France, “c’est une perle!””

“My wife and I bought a home in La Jolla in early 2014 and retained Patty in late 2013 while living in New Jersey. After researching brokers with expertise in La Jolla, Rancho Santa Fe, and Del Mar, we chose Patty for her track record and commitment. She devoted significant time to educating us about the market and ultimately guided us to La Jolla, which was the perfect fit for our family. Patty taught us not just about the house, but about the community, vendors, and neighborhoods. She handled issues related to us being out-of-state buyers with ease, even meeting contractors and helping with closing details. Most importantly, Patty is a trustworthy and genuinely good person. We wish you the best of luck in your search.”

“We recently sold a condo in La Jolla, CA. Patty Cohen and her entire team are outstanding! We have owned several properties over a 45-year period, and Patty is by far the best agent we have ever had. Patty took care of every detail, communicated extensively, and followed up on every question. She was involved in every step—from the photo shoot to inspection to coordinating closing. She developed a superb strategy for selling our condo, and we received the same comprehensive, professional service she provides for multi-million dollar listings. Our condo sold in 1 day, and everything was handled seamlessly. Patty and her team are the real deal, and we would use their services again without hesitation. Look no further if you are thinking of buying or selling!”

They were professional, organized, and proactive, coordinating all contractors and repairs needed to get the house ready for sale. They made the process seamless, handled every detail, and kept me informed at every step. Thanks to their guidance, the home was presented beautifully, and the sale exceeded my expectations.

I would wholeheartedly recommend Patty and Daniel to anyone looking for trustworthy, experienced, and results-driven realtors.”

“Patty Cohen is superb, not only with her long-term exceptional knowledge of the Greater San Diego and La Jolla market but also in delivering above and beyond any client's expectations. I have worked with many agents in the past, and she is the only one who exceeded my expectations.

“It is with great confidence that we recommend Daniel Albrecht and Patty Cohen as real estate professionals. Over the years, Daniel and Patty have represented us in the majority of our eight real estate transactions in San Diego, most often on the selling side. Their professionalism, knowledge, and trustworthiness have consistently exceeded our expectations. They approach every sale with a deep understanding of the market, attention to detail, and a calm confidence that makes even the most complex processes smooth and stress-free. Their ability to position and market our properties strategically, while guiding us through important decisions with clarity and care, has been invaluable. Most recently, they managed our largest transaction to date, and once again demonstrated the integrity and expertise that set them apart. We trust Daniel and Patty implicitly and would not consider working with anyone else in the real estate field. They have been more than agents to us—they have been reliable advisors and partners in every stage of the real estate process. Without hesitation, we highly recommend Daniel Albrecht and Patty Cohen to anyone seeking real estate professionals who are not only knowledgeable but also genuinely committed to their clients’ best interests.”

“It is our great pleasure to recommend Patty Cohen as an agent. Patty was briefed on what we were looking for and immediately responded with a variety of homes. As she presented the properties, she noted how they met or slightly deviated from our brief. She gave us space to observe, answered questions, and offered honest advice. Patty was always available, responsive, and followed through on every question without pressure. She went the extra mile to schedule inspections while we were out of the country and helped us negotiate a more complex transaction involving new construction and a foreclosure. Patty’s professionalism, punctuality, and commitment to her clients are unquestionable. We feel very fortunate that she guided us through the process and made the journey smooth. We will definitely call on her expertise again.”

“Patty Cohen was referred to us by a local friend when we were looking for a vacation property in San Diego. We were delighted to meet Patty and her son, Daniel, who spent a day showing us numerous properties in downtown San Diego. Each property could have fit our needs, but she suggested we look at a condo in La Jolla. She immediately recognized what we were looking for and directed us to this perfect condo. When we were ready to move permanently to SD from the East Coast 5 years later, Patty helped us find our new home and sell our condo. She also coordinated the move of our furniture from the condo to our new home. We highly recommend Patty to anyone looking to relocate to CA, move within the community, or sell their home. She is personable, engaging, and professional.”

“It is my pleasure to write this letter of recommendation for Patty Cohen. I researched several brokers before selecting Patty to sell my parents’ house in La Jolla held in a Trust. From our first meeting, I was impressed with her professionalism and knowledge of La Jolla. Patty worked diligently months before the listing, coordinating vendors for cleaning, landscaping, staging, and more while keeping my goals and budget in mind. The staged house showed beautifully, and she obtained an all-cash offer in less than a week, closing in just 14 days. Patty’s incredible work ethic, responsiveness, and professionalism made the process smooth and minimized stress. I wholeheartedly give her my highest recommendation.”

“During one’s lifetime, one finds a few individuals that offer truly outstanding service. It is a pleasure to recommend Patty Cohen and her team. Whether buying or selling a home in La Jolla, California, you can’t go wrong with this team. First, they are extremely knowledgeable about the market. As one of the top real estate teams in La Jolla, they are directly involved in a substantial number of transactions and have an extensive network of professionals who regularly share market knowledge. Second, they provide thoughtful and relevant advice. To Patty, serving her clients is a much higher priority than any specific transaction. Her market knowledge and realistic guidance attracted us to enlist her services for the sale of our home. Third, they are outstanding communicators. Unlike many brokers, they regularly updated us on our property and comparable market activity. Fourth, they are very detail-focused. Every aspect of a transaction is carefully monitored, every “I” dotted and every “t” crossed. The team stays on top of paperwork and schedules. Finally, they are exceptional at marketing your property to buyers. With great photos, internet placement, advertising, and their extensive network of brokers and past clients, every eligible buyer toured our property. Besides all these attributes, they are exceptionally nice people and a pleasure to work with. We can’t recommend them more highly and would be pleased to respond to anyone seeking more details about our experience.”
