āWe cannot say enough about the incredible dynamic duo of Joy Bender and Rob Aumann at LuxurySoCalRealty. 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. 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!ā
