My wife and I worked with Jesse, Craig and Dave over at the Green House Group and we have to say, it was one of the best experiences we've had. With such a big purchase, you really want to ensure you have the best team in place. They get our full support in this category. They were amazing!

From the very first contact with Jesse and Craig at GreenHouse Group, I knew we were in going to be okay with our massive move from the East Coast to San Diego. We've had numerous realtors in the past, and were quite frankly blown away by the level of sincere service, thoughtfulness and professionalism of these guys. We first met with Jesse and Craig over Skype and Jesse did a good job clarifying how and why GreenHouse is different from the rest....its a long list. We gave them our preferences for homes and they did not fail at being our ears and eyes on the ground before we moved to SD.

After arriving in SD, we had a very small timeframe to buy a house for another of reasons. We put a an offer or two on a house we really wanted that was for going for "short sale". As first time home buyers, we had no clue what we were getting into. Luckily, Jesse wrote the freaking book on short sales (literally!!!) and we were so comfortable with the whole process. Thankfully, the deal did not go through. I say thankfully because Im writing this review from our actual dream home in our dream "hood."

Craig used his Jedi mind tricks and was able to finagle a $140,000 price reduction for our house (seriously). Throughout the whole process, Craig's on the spot availability (pretty amazing), patience and support really helped us work out buying our home. I remember Craig stating that he was "shoulder to shoulder" with us and that he was going to fight for everything we wanted. Well, he was exceptionally successful. He also got a home warranty, an amazing consideration when buying a 100 year old house, and has to date, saved us over $20,000 in home repairs (yes!).

In brief, if we want to call this review anything of the sort, is the GreenHouse group made us family like family. They were exceptionally patient with our apprehensions, multitudes of questions, and late night questions-Craig and Jesse wrote back almost immediately. I really think that its because they really love their jobs. Its hard to fake that, at least for a long time.

When we got the keys to our house, we were inundated with home goodies and other lovely gifts and even had an impromptu little party (an Irish inspired theme...). Almost a year later, we still chat with Jesse and Craig, which really exemplifies the relationship that they promote with their clients. Moving across the country is really hard, buying a house in California is not child's play and this combination was not easy for us as we established ours jobs and settled the family, but GreenHouse Group really assuaged the process. I learned to simply trust that they were going to knock it out of the park. Thanks guys. We will be calling you all up for your services if we ever decide to sell our lovely dream house.

Best advice I can give if you're trying to sell or buy a home: Stop your search now. Call Jesse at the GreenHouse Group. All of your real estate problems solved.

We were looking to sell our home and use the proceeds to buy a new home in Point Loma. This caused us a lot of anxiety. What would we have to sacrifice to make this happen? Would we have to move multiple times? Would we have to sell at a bargain price? Would we have to overpay on the house we purchased or buy something that we didn't love? Something had to give....

I'm here to tell you that we got EVERYTHING WE WANTED and gave up nothing strictly due to the fact that we went with the GreenHouse Group. We listed our house significantly over what I thought we could get for it and ended up selling it for significantly over list price! We got a 30-day rent back so we didn't have to move out until 30 days after it sold. We got a fantastic deal on our perfect home that we purchased despite significant competition and several other offers. We closed on our new home and moved in with time to spare meaning we did all this and only had to move once!

There were SO MANY THINGS that could have gone wrong and yet seemingly, with the GreenHouse Group, everything just went right - literally everything. We are so thankful to Jesse and his AMAZING team: Craig (our primary buyer's agent) represented us masterfully and ensured we got the right home at the right price at the right time. Renata made our house look amazing to help it sell for over list price - I still remember coming home from work to see it staged for the first time and our home looked so good, it almost made me not want to sell it anymore! And of course Jesse, the mastermind behind it all, who received way too many of my text messages. Beyond ensuring we got the maximum amount we could get for our house, he was the glue that held it all together - he talked us off the ledge when we needed it; he provided us the honest truth even when at times it was hard to hear; he was responsive, a natural negotiator and ultimately I felt that he (and the whole team) truly wanted the best for me and my family.

In the end, there is no doubt that the decision to go with the GreenHouse Group truly was the absolute best decision for my family.

Jesse and his team at The GreenHouse Group helped me sell my home. But when I say 'helped', that is in fact a gross understatement. Jesse and his phenomenal team were pivotal in making the sale of my home even possible. I had a very unique property and certain elements of this sale turned out to be rather complex.

Jesse was by my side the entire time. He kept me posted at every turn; detailed e-mails and phone conversations were constant throughout the process.

If an issue came up, a solution was already in the works. This particular deal required a HUGE amount of problem solving in areas I was not familiar with, yet everything was explained to me in great detail and decisions were made as a team.

I was truly amazed at the pace he and his team worked at. I can only put that down to the years of experience they have and level of efficiency at which they operate.

I must say, reflecting on this deal, what I appreciate the most was that throughout the entire process, there was always a can-do attitude. I would absolutely consider Jesse not only the person who did everything he could to help me sell my home, but a friend.

To Jesse, Renata, Christina and all the other team members at The Greenhouse Group working super hard behind the scenes, THANK YOU. You are truly incredible at what you do.

If you Have any fears, hesitations, or frustrations with either buying or selling your home, have no fear anymore. Jesse and his team at the GreenHouse Group will coach you through to victory. No matter if you are local or trying to buy from thousands of miles away like us, with his nearly 20 years of being a professional within the industry, he will safely navigate through all the possible pitfalls and deliver the keys to your dream home. Jesse coordinated everything for us from home walkthrough, offer/counter-offer submission, home inspection, and VA appraisal all complete within 17 days of us original offer submission. He will fight for your investment, and do everything possible to make your dream a reality. His best advertisement is not on a bus bench, but rather from word of mouth from the thousands of home buyers and sellers who gave him a shot. We are over the moon with our house and the fact that it all happened is the greatest testament to his diligent and dedicated work ethic.

Jesse and his team helped us to buy and then 3 years later sell our home due to an out of state job change. In everything, Jesse was intuitive, communicative, patient, and knowledgeable. He and his team guided us through a very complicated short sale on the buying end, and then helped us maneuver through a traditional sale. He was incredible and we know we would not have been able to do it without him and his team, and he took us who knew absolutely nothing about real estate and made the whole thing understandable.

I recommended Jesse without hesitation to buy or sell a home.

Jesse and the GreenHouse Group team are the most thorough real estate services company I have ever worked with. I've bought and sold multiple homes in the past and this was, by far, the greatest experience.
Jesse hand held us through the entire process. First, we came in, had a meeting to discuss our goals and objectives. We settled on a plan to both sell my condo and buy a new home. One of the things that was most impressive is that our photos that were used to market our condo for sale were beyond professional. It's something that Jesse does because he knows that pictures on an iPhone are not going to sell our house. Included in our photos was a video taken from a drone that showed our property from an aerial view. That is some next level stuff there.
The best thing about working with Jesse, is that you get all of his resources. Everyone on his team is an expert in the transaction point they are helping you with. So, rather than an agent that is a jack of all trades, master of none, all of the members of the Greenhouse Group have an area of expertise and they execute that area flawlessly.
There is no detail that went unnoticed by the team during our transaction. After working with Jesse and the Greenhouse Group, I wonder why anyone would choose another realtor.

Great Job to Jesse and his team! 10+ out of 10

We sorted through countless reviews when looking for an agent to help us sell our house. With so many glowing reviews for GHG, I learned first hand why. We planned on being in a different state when we sold. So we needed a firm that would be able to handle that. We had Jesse (Realitor) and Renata (designer) walk through the house to see what they thought. They put together a general plan for the things that should be done to get maximum value for the house.

Our situation:

We owned a 3 Bed 2 Bath house in Kearney Mesa. We had 6 months to get the house ready for the sale. Our house had unpermitted additions that added value to the house but were none the less....Unpermitted.

Jesse was excited about the house but had no reservations talking about some of the things that can come up in Escrow due to the unpermitted additions. Renata was up to the task too. We didn’t want to make any design decisions. She knew better then anyone, what buyers are looking for. So it was nice to not have to make any decisions about design.

We knew from the day we decided to sell that we no longer had a “home”. It was now an income property. An investment. Jesse and Renata shared our vision for putting some money into the house so we could maximize our investment. After coming up with a plan that fit our budget we decided to start renovations. We used two different contractors from TheGreenHouse’s contacts. Both did a great job and were very reasonably priced.

We all met at the house again to come up with a plan for the kitchen with our remaining budget. We came up with a great midddle ground “face lift” with the kitchen that would really make the house pop......without popping our designated budget.

It’s worth noting that there were several times during renovations, I would ask them if we should be doing MORE to the house? They would say “Let’s stick to the budget and trust the process”. They could have easily said, “you’re right. That would really help the house sell”. But they had our interests at heart and wanted to make sure that they did right by us. This was when I knew that we hired the right people.

Our timeline changed when our second child came 2 weeks earlier then expected. We came together and concluded we should vacate the house a little earlier so the workers could bang the job out and we come to market a little earlier then expected. We were going to test GreenHouse’s abilities to finish the sale while we were out of state.

The day before we moved to Colorado, we all met one last time at the house. We went over all the things left to do to the house. We hugged and said our goodbyes. Our house was now in their hands and my family couldn’t have felt more comfortable with the situation. Moving is stressful enough. Jesse and Renata made it easy to focus on the move.

The work on the house was completed (right on time and budget). The house was staged, by Renata, and ready to be shown. The pictures were amazing. The market got a little hotter since our first meeting and the house looked amazing so Jesse suggested we should list at $578,000.

Thanks to GreenHouse’s amazing marketing team, we had 14 weekend showings scheduled in the first 2 days!!! We got 8 offers for ABOVE asking price. Then we got the offer we couldn’t refuse. $24k above asking price. Things got even better when Jesse somehow bid them UP to $600,000.

We were all skeptical that the house would appraise for $600k with the unpermitted work. We were at the mercy of the appraisers. But Jesse put us in position to get the maximum amount of money that we could get. Jesse met the appraisers at the house. They all collaborated and had an open dialog about the “worth” of the unpermitted additions. The final appraisal came back at $600,000! All thanks to Jesse “showing them the light”.

The buyers inspector found several things that needed repair (as most do and should). So we did the work that we work we thought to be fair. Jesse was on top of hiring the correct contractors to get the work done. All done well and reasonably priced.

Electricians were super busy during this period so we couldn’t find one to do the work. Instead of going with an unproven electrician, we decided to offer them a $1,500 credit to complete the electrical needs on their own. Long story short, Jesse used his savvy experience to close the deal.

With Jesse’s amazing negotiating/salesmanship skills, Renata’s keen eye for design and managing our budget and the long list of team members on the GreenHouse team.....we ended up closing the deal for $22,500 above our HIGH asking price.

Selling a house is stressful. Everyone thinks you just put it on the market and you sell. Well that is NOT how it works. Jesse prepared us for this reality the first time we met. He prepared us for the issues that would probably come up. We were a TEAM from the start. We made a plan and executed it. I’m so happy that we had the good fortune to find them

I love the Greenhouse Group!! Why? Because they sold my old home in 4 hours after it hit the MLS. And they helped me find a new home that I absolutely LOVE! Jesse has the knowledge of the market, home values and the keen eye in marketing your home for sale. But Renata is his secret weapon! She comes in and makes your home so beautiful that you get top dollar on the sale!! I highly recommend the GHG for buying, selling and/or refinancing your home! They treat you like family and really care about you and your most precious asset...your home!

Really enjoyed working with Jesse and The Greenhouse Group. They were all professional, attentive and accommodating. They were extremely diligent and worked with me every step of the way as I sold me first condo. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell there home!

As we plan our move to San Diego we searched the web for the best realtors in San Diego. After connecting with several we chose GreenHouse and are partnering with them to find our new home. Every interaction has been absolutely delightful and world class. Jesse and his team (we are working with Craig who is terrific) are outstanding. We love their personal and professional approach, no doubt we are in great hands. We like their integrated team approach with selling, buying and financing specialists. They clearly deserve their reputation as the best real estate group in San Diego and we highly recommend them.

Jesse is nothing less than a remarkable real estate professional. He knows every detail of the process inside and out and his negotiation skills are incredible. He was able to help us complete a tough transaction and took care of all of the details along the way. I highly recommend Jesse and the GreenHouse Group.

I was looking to purchase my 2nd property and enlisted the help of Jesse and Anahi to help me find a place I could live at for a few years and eventually turn into a rental. From the initial consult (which I'll admit I was a little hesitant, as I knew what I wanted and was antsy to get the process going), to getting keys to my place, the whole team at GreenHouse was responsive, helpful, ENERGETIC and 100% looking out for my best interest.
Both Jesse and Anahi played devil's advocate and a few times talked me out of moving forward with a place because they knew what was important to me and knew that it wouldn't be the best fit. I don't know many real estate agents who would turn down business to make sure you found the place you love. But so glad they did. I'm now living in an awesome apartment and couldn't be happier!! I've since referred friends to them and will most definitely be a repeat customer! :)

REPEAT CUSTOMERS!
After buying our condo with the help of Jesse and Jeremy in 2009 and the assistance of Christine in managing our rental while living overseas from 2014-2016, we knew we could trust the Green House Group in selling our condo in the quickest amount of time and for the highest price in our development. They did not disappoint! They made selling our home a cakewalk...which could have easily been another added stressor as we were in the middle of an international move, working, and taking care of our newborn. Jesse and his team were on it from Day 1. They described every step throughout clearly and dumbed it down for us non-real estate types. And, they used tools such as docusign and basecamp to keep us informed where we were in the process and for ease in getting documents executed. In addition, major props to Jesse for his remarkable negotiating skills. He got us a cash offer at our asking price within days of listing...in fact we had 3 full price offers and got to pick the best one. Freaking amazing!
It was super emotional saying goodbye to our first home. So emotional that we've asked him to put in alerts for homes in NoCo. We can't wait to work with the GHG again. At the GHG, you aren't just another client, you're family. That's the for real truth. Thanks again for everything!!

The team at the Greenhouse group is fantastic! They each have a roll that they do so well. We couldn't be happier with the results of our home sale.

When we first met with Jesse and Renata in their office, we were not sure of the exact timing of the sale. We thought we would have a few months to prepare but it ended up being a few weeks. Renata gave us suggestions on how to update our home. I'm not going to lie, it was a lot of work, but once we were done we were sad we had to move because it looked so great!

I really was impressed how quickly they were able to get the ball rolling with only a few weeks notice. As I think back, it was such a whirlwind. I was a little freaked out because I was still in the house while my husband was in Florida starting his new job. Jesse was there with kind words and an over asking price offer (thank you, Jesse) within a day of our open house. We also moved across the country in the middle of escrow. With input from everyone (Christine, Renata, Jesse) the Basecamp app they use kept us informed the entire time.

WE CLOSED AND RECORDED IN 30 DAYS ON THE DOT! We are elated with the results of working with The Greenhouse Group! GO TEAM!

I cannot say enough great things about Jesse and his team! We live in Washington State and used The GreenHouse Group to sell our Mission Valley condo. We initially had renters in our home; the GreenHouse Group was extremely patient and respectful our tenants schedule when in came to viewings. After our renters moved out in February, we staged the home and then relaunched our media. We had our open house on a Saturday afternoon and by that evening we had two offers. Our condo sold for above asking price. Jesse, Renata and Christine worked with us every step of the way. While my husband was in South Korea and Singapore, Jesse skyped with us both (me being in Washington) and went over every aspect of our offers. We always felt that they had our family's best interest at heart.

Also, stage your home! It is a service that they offer, please utilize it. Renata staged our home beautifully. I kind of wanted to move back in afterwards haha. The next time we are in the market for real estate in San Diego, we will definitely be using the GreenHouse Group again.

400 miles away, 4 days on the market, $40K over asking... need more be said?! Jesse, Renata and Christine guided us with enthusiasm, professionalism, and attention to detail from start to finish on the sale of our 2 bd/2ba condo.

Why Greenhouse Group was effective-
* Built trust with dialogue (Skype & calls) to thoroughly understand our wants and needs even though we live in northern California
* Made high impact, low cost recommendations to prepare the condo for market
* Identified and hired reliable, quality, fairly-priced contractors to do the work on a tight timeline
* Staged the condo to highlight its best features
* Helped us understand the current trends and pricing
* Marketed with tech savvy
* Masterfully negotiated multiple offers
* Kept communications flowing with a daily update software, photos, email and calls

The Greenhouse team are pros with personality, amazing at what they do, and I cannot recommend them more highly... wish there were more stars!

Phenomenal team, phenomenal results, couldn't be more pleased!

First of all....let me lead off with a WOW.

No empty promises - just precise execution - all the while providing an answers to questions - before they were asked in many instances.

Jesse and I met online - through the Greenhouse Group site. I reside in Texas and was tasked with selling a condo in San Diego. We did the customary 3 bids from 3 Agencies.

I was very impressed with the 30 minute slide show that Jesse created for our property - it was real time and up to date and detailed based on our property. Needless to say - Greenhouse got the "Green Light". But hold on - It gets even better.
We had to re-model the condo (40+ years old). Again, they stepped up and provided their onsite "expert" Renata. She took pictures and made the key suggestions that would minimize expense and maximize the finished product. Additionally, Renata checked on the construction though every phase. When construction was over, Renata then did her magic and staged the condo - it was so good, that my brother wondered why I sent him pictures of someone else's condo.

Within 30 days, yes - within 30 days we had hundreds of hits, countless showings and a valid offer - SOLD.

But it doesn't stop there either - Christine steps in and walks us through the daunting paperwork and closing documents (additionally, she provided assistance with some other documentation concerning the estate).
Jesse and his Greenhouse Group (should be Greenhouse "Team") partnered with 5 Star Title and they took us to the finish line!

Jesse Ibanez has a new creative business model for every real estate company. The Greenhouse Group does not just stick a sign in the front yard and expect it to sell. Every step of the selling process is staged by the Greenhouse Group so it makes it a pleasurable experience to sell. It has been by far by my best selling experience. Highly recommend them!

Jesse & Craig with the Greenhouse Group were really great to work with. It’s because of them that we are starting off 2016 in our own home. We don’t think we would’ve been able to get into the house we did without them. They worked on our behalf thru many obstacles and were there to listen whenever we became overwhelmed. Jeremy & Scott were also very helpful & knowledgeable and answered all of our questions on the loan side of things. We feel very fortunate that we had Craig on our side and would highly recommend him to anyone.

Jesse and his team at the Greenhouse Group are at the top of their game. These guys sold my house for more than the asking price and appraisal price in just 3 days on the market! I highly recommend, if you are buying or selling a home in the San Diego area, that you call these guys right away. I was kept well informed through the entire transaction and felt very comfortable in the capable hands of the Greenhouse Group. Jesse is a great communicator and expertly negotiated this deal. I am VERY PLEASED with the services they have provided. If you are in the San Diego home market you should really see if the Greenhouse Group can help you!

Jesse and his team were a pleasure to work with. Jesse sold my home for the highest price the neighborhood has seen since the crazy days of '05. The process was very smooth and he showed his negotiating skills dealing with the buyer's agent when they tried to get pretty. Also, the pictures he took for marketing truly showed the property in the best light possible. Jesse did a great job keeping me up to date with what was going on, even when I was out of town for a while. The Green House Group provides prompt, knowledgeable service. I look forward to working with them again.

Jesse and The GreenHouse Group is your one stop real estate group and mortgage planning team! We did the tough, selling our condo and bought a house at the same time, during a hot real estate time in SD, August 2015! We received multiple offers on our condo thanks to Jesse and Renata, they come to your house and guide you every step, they are the best with first time homebuyers. They are a machine and have a great strategy to reach so many buyers. Also, Jesse is the co-owner and he is an amazing realtor, our condo appraised for less than what we wanted, and Jesse fought for us and got us a price above appraisal!! Now to the mortgage side, Jeremy and Scott, are even more amazing. We sat down with Jeremy and went through all the numbers and they are the most professional team, they closed our loan on a new house in less than 25 days!! We also worked very closely with Carmen, she showed us so many houses and guided us so much with our house search in this crazy san diego market :) Selling and buying at the same time, was intense for my family, but with Jesse's team, we were always one step ahead.
Overall, i highly recommend the Greenhouse Group to any friend, they have experience, skills, and they are extremely humble people that really care about why they are in the business, they are all about focusing on people and leaving people in a better place. They have impacted our lives and we are now in our beautiful home all settled in. We are so thankful that our friends recommended them to us.

Jesse and his team (Craig, Christine, Renate, etc.) are top notch, client first people. They were looking out for my best interest at all times. We would not have been able to get out home without his team's efforts. They are an outstanding group and I would highly recommend them. They are my real estate team for life!!

Jeremy, Scott, Jesse, Craig, and the entire GreenHouse Group were fantastic during the entire process of helping me finding my home. They helped me from the whole confusing loan qualifying phase to the frustrating home searching phase, and were able to answer all of my questions and concern throughout the process. Once I found a house I wanted to make an offer on, they worked late into the night (I saw the timestamp on the emails coming to me) to help me craft the best offer letter that lead me to getting my home. And when I have to leave town for over a week during the critical escrow period, they were able to push through paperwork and schedule the necessary inspections and meetings to meet my needs.
They were truly a great team to work with. I highly recommend them and will do business with them again in the future should a need arise.

First off, husband and I were first time home sellers so we did not know what to expect. We were referred to Jesse by our neighbor which he had also helped to sell her house within a matter of days. Before contacting him, I had also did my own research on his company and read all the reviews online. Then we had our first meeting with him. My first impression was Jesse is very friendly and approachable. He was extremely knowledgeable about San Diego market and gave us invaluable advices. We then met at his office and proceeded with the paperwork. Jesse understood that we were in a time crunch with us moving back to the east coast. He and his team helped to expedite the process and lead us every steps of the way. With Jesse’s and his team’s guidance, we got an offer more than what we expected! During the escrow process, we encountered some issues with repair expenses for the house, but with Jesse’s exceptional negotiation skill, we were able to pay very little OOP. Jesse always looked out for our best interest and tried to get us TOP dollar for our house. Jesse and his team is TRULY THE BEST REAL ESTATE COMPANY IN SAN DIEGO!!! Lastly, I really want to say BIG thank you to Jesse, Renata, and Christine for making this such an easy process for us. We couldn't have done it without you!!!

Dear prospective home seller,
This real estate team is very professional and very knowledgeable regarding all aspects of home selling. I never waited more than 1 hour for a call back or a returned email. They seem to genuinely care about what they do, and care deeply about the client.
I would highly recommend Jesse Ibanez and his team for your next home selling experience.

Working with Jesse, Craig, Dave and their team was amazing!
First of all when my fiancé Taylor and I got to the Green House Group we were greeted by one of the team with a tray of coffee and tea. It was such a warm welcome. We were new to this, so it was a pleasant surprise to feel so relaxed by their incredible customer service. But it doesn't stop there, on every home tour Criag made sure Taylor and I were completely taken care of the entire time. This was how the entire process went. It was incredible!
They have the home buying experience down! I would work with them again for sure. Success to the Green House Group!

Jesse Ibanez made the experience of selling my home a truly easy one. I expected a lot of stress throughout the process, but I did not have any! He was there to answer any questions, his team did a great job
Helping to get my home ready, and they just made the whole thing almost effortless on my part! I would use the Greenhouse Group again for any home I sell or buy!

All I can say is WOW! We have bought and sold before and expected the usual: list, open house with a few attendees, the realtor tour and the wait. BUT - we got Jesse and his great group at Greenhouse - what a wonderful thing that turned out to be! Jesse took the time to talk to us about what we wanted and then put his remarkable marketing plan into action. He explained what we needed to do to get the house ready (luckily our daughter was in the home and became our boots-on-the-ground); set up a schedule of events and tasks for the whole team ( his group and us), posted the plan on Basecamp (a very nifty management tool) and we were off and running. Jesse did a ton of premarketing through realtor contacts, letters and postcards to neighbors in area of house, posting a video of the property and announcing the open house. We had over 100 people attend that Saturday open house event! We had offers the following Friday and accepted one for over the asking price. It was a cash offer and we closed 15 days later. I say "we" but it was Jesse, Renata and Christine that did the work as we are 600 miles away - we did everything online. We could not have been more pleased, happy, delighted and grateful to Jesse and his team. All three of them kept in constant contact with us giving updates, clarifying concerns, etc. - they were all extremely responsive to us. I have already let my high school friends from Coronado know that Jesse and The Greenhouse
Group are the team to use for buying or selling real estate in the San Diego area. They are the absolute best real estate team we have ever worked with during our six prior transactions and the recently concluded one.

We highly recommend Jesse Ibanez and the Greenhouse Group. They marketed and sold our condo in just a few weeks for a great price. Jesse is energetic and professional and works hard for his clients. There is also no doubt that Renata's staging was superb and helped sell the property. You can trust that the Greenhouse Group will get the best price in the shortest amount of time for your property. Their work ethic, effort, and integrity are unmatched in the real estate arena!

Jesse is a true professional whose mission is to make your home buying experience a wonderful and lasting memory.
He brings with him a breadth of experience and knowledge in his field and uses it to benefit his clients.
Under Jesse's leadership,The "Greenhouse Experience" is one that makes you feel more like family than a client.
My family and I are grateful for Jesse and his team's hard work and diligence in our home buying experience.

I recommend Jesse and the Green House Group to anyone looking for a great home buying/selling experience. Their authentic character and integrity is tangible and they genuinely care about the customer.

Super positive and fun, helpful and caring; especially during a time that can be sooo stressful. His partners at the Greenhouse Group are great, too. An in-house mortgage guy made it a one stop shop and an "all in the family" feel. Most amazingly, the place we bought had been on the market for much more $ and we had put in an offer that was turned down. The place was removed from the market. Months later we saw it back on the market as a bank owned property. We really wanted to get the place for lower than the listing price, which is darn near impossible with an bank owned place. Jesse was the super man and we ended up getting it for like $15k less than listing, but even better it was $30k less than we had originally offered months before! The day we were getting the keys, he was on our porch with David (the awesome mortgage guy)...bottle of bubbly, a video camera and super excited for this first time home!

I don't think you can find a better agent than Jesse. While I often hear people tell stories about how their agent does just enough to close the sale, that couldn't be further from the truth for Jesse. He helped us buy our first home. This was a daunting and frightening process and the Greenhouse Group team couldn't have made it any easier. Before meeting Jesse, we didn't even know what we didn't know, as the saying goes. Throughout the process, we learned a tremendous amount from Jesse and his team. But, more importantly, we had an agent that always seemed to have our best interest in mind. It never seemed like he was doing what was best for his end of the bargain. 1.5 years later, we love our home, and realize every day what great guidance and what great service we got. From the first consultation to our "key party," everything about Jesse and his team was first class.

We needed to sell our home and Jesse Ibanez was Excellent for us. He started the process without delay he had our home inspected, cleaned and staged in a very short time; when the seller needed something from us Jesse sent the issues to us in writing fast so we could resolve it. He kept us informed at all times. He sold our house fast in one day! and at a great price! My wife and I couldn't be happier with the sale! If you need a real estate professional get Jesse Ibanez quick before someone else does!

Jesse and the rest of the Greenhouse Group staff have been remarkable throughout our first home buying experience. Jesse's hard work and dedication are evident in all aspects of his practice. His attention to detail and his knowledge are amazing. He also has relentless energy and a drive to provide the best service available. He truly loves what he does. On top of that, he is incredibly friendly and caring. He is so easy to talk to, and really helps you feel comfortable. He has exceeded my wildest expectations time and again. My family and I feel blessed to have found him when we did. . I can not think of one SINGLE thing that was not amazing. Trust the ratings he receives year in and year out. He is the BEST!

Almost 3 yrs ago, Jesse and the Green Team helped me find my first home. They were the best team I could have chosen for the task. Recently, my wife and I decided that we wanted a lifestyle change, and made the decision to put our home on the market. I did not think twice and I contacted Jesse.
With the housing market headed in a downward direction, various units in my area for sale (many of them on the market for months), and my community going through litigation (which I discovered makes it extremely difficulty for someone to buy in my area); Jesse and the GreenHouse Group not only sold my home in a little over a month, but they sold it over list price. Amazing.
I have now experienced the Greenhouse Group as both a buyer and a seller, and I can say without a single doubt that they are the best real estate company in San Diego County. To Jesse, Christine, and Renata, thank you.
....I only hope Jesse is ready for round 3 when we are ready to buy again.

Working with the Jesse and the GreenHouse group was like reading an amazing book. One where you will love the characters and after you are done you will think about how great the journey really was.
These guys have you covered on everything. I went in as a first time home-buyer having only the knowledge learned from fake TV shows about real estate. They talked me through everything from financing to searching and putting in offers.
After the first visit we made, we knew that this group had to be one of the best, They made us feel like VIP guests to their office and they continued to do so throughout the entire process.
The communication between each other seems great and the various communication paths that they give you to communicate with them is enormous. I communicated with them during my search through email, phone, cell phone, text message, fax, dropbox, and the website they set up that allows various communication methods.
Stuff gets done the day it needs to get done, even after you think they would be home resting after a day of work.
Give them a shot, call, make an appointment. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain by meeting with them. After that first meeting you will most likely be hooked to them and if not you can look elsewhere. But I will tell you, YELP doesn't lie, they have five star ratings for a good reason and Im sure they will have many more to come in the future.
They go the extra step, add that extra detail to their interactions with you. Something that you dont see very often in business. Its all the small things that add up along with their expertise and tenacity which makes for the ULTIMATE EXPERIENCE.
I am part of the Greenhouse Group for life now, and will be calling them for sure the next time Im looking to do anything real estate related.

Jesse was very humbled and excited to help me sell my place. He was able to get top dollar per sq foot for the building that I lived in. It rolled into him helping me buy a new place and we were able to find an excellent place. I miss him and his team of professionals at his office. They were a pleasure to work with and helped every step of the way. I look forward to working with Jesse and his team again, just hopefully not too soon :-)

I had the pleasure of working with Jesse and the GreenHouse Group staff to find and purchase my first home after receiving a recommendation from a friend. GreenHouse Group are pretty much a 1-stop shop and help you out from start to finish - everything from finding the perfect place to locking you into a loan at a great rate. These guys go above and beyond - Jesse even went and physically scoped out places on his own based on my criteria and was able to find the best ones that matched up to my preferences, saving me tons of time and hassle!
My work/travel schedule was hectic and the GreenHouse group made the entire process of finding and buying a home smooth and fun. I've been recommending these guys to EVERYONE, and I now have friends and friends of friends that have worked with GreenHouse to buy their first home. Do yourself a favor - avoid the hassle from the other guys and give GreenHouse Group a call. They are loaded with knowledge and experience, and are very responsive to any questions or concerns you may have. If you are even thinking of buying a home in the near future and want personalized, attentive assistance in this process - and most importantly: RESULTS, then GreenHouse Group is the answer.
These guys are passionate about the real estate business, and have a high degree of professionalism, integrity, and love for helping people out and making the process of buying a home a fun, hassle-free experience.
I sold my condo recently; there was no question in my mind about who to call to make this happen. The GreenHouse Group crew was again right on point! I was in a rush to get it on the market since the San Diego market was ripe, and did not bother staging it. There were a lot of bites but no offers, and after a couple of weeks I considered lowering the listing price significantly. The GreenHouse Group instead recommended instead to sink a few $'s into simply staging the property instead of lowering the price, even though we were listing it towards the top end of some similar comps. I took their advice and LITERALLY the day after it was staged I had two offers roll in! These guys know their stuff! Long story short there was a bit of competitive bidding from the buyers and I ended up getting just a bit over what I was asking - CASH OFFER! As usual these guys exceeded all expectations and handled everything, and made the process easy and smooth. Don't even consider anybody else for buying or selling. Go GreenHouse Group all the way!!

Overpriced and undermanaged.
We were so happy when our deal finally closed. Not so much because it closed but because we no longer had to deal with GHG.
The aggravation of dealing with GHG employees' general lack of attention to detail was only complicated by the fact that most communication we received from Jesse was in the form of canned emails with links to videos of him talking about stuff that didn't always pertain to our transaction.
They had us pay an extra $500 for a Transaction Coordinator which we were fine with as long as there was a smooth transaction which there wasn't, allowed for what turned out to be some very unfavorable terms in our contract with the seller, and grossly miscalculated the closing costs which cost us $2000 out of pocket.
At the end of it all we sent Jesse an email with our review of their services to which he blindly replied "please rate us on Trulia" then a week later followed up with a profuse patronizing "apology" for the entire ordeal which amounted to him dismissively saying "oops, my bad" with no sign of sincerity whatsoever.
It was a long and painful transaction.

Jesse and his team were excellent. They were honest and helped me find a place that met my expectations with everything I was looking for. They were able to schedule around my busy schedule and they made the process of buying my first home a breeze.

Previously we used Jesse and team to buy our new house, and we went back to them with help selling our condo. I didn't think my opinion of them could be improved, but they far exceeded my expectations.
I spoke early on with Jesse to come up with realistic expectations for selling my condo. Christine and Renata managed the project and kept everything working smoothly. Renata scheduled and handled the access for a handyman to come in and fix everything, and then staged the house. Christine came in and took pictures, and when I saw them I was blown away. The condo looked amazing!
With all of our ad material ready, we had a final conversation with Jesse to look at the comps in the neighborhood and get the listing ready to go live. The listing went live on Friday. Monday morning, Jesse called me and I assumed it was a status update... NOPE... we had an offer for full price in cash. My house was on the market for less than 72 hours, and I got top dollar.
I can't say enough good things about Jesse, Christine, Renata, and the whole Greenhouse Team.

I would highly recommend Jesse and his team to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home. My husband and I were nervous of buying a home after our short sale, but Jesse and his team made us feel completely at ease. They guided us through from beginning to the end from the initial house inspection, to finance questions, to handing us our keys. They team is extremely professional and conduct themselves at a very high standard. If you are looking for a team that truly has your best interest at heart, this is the team for you!!! We are looking forward to working with them again in the future!

Jesse and his team are great. They’ve got a good thing going on. My experience with realtors suggests most are some combination of knowledgeable, competent, and friendly. Jesse and his team scores high in all three categories.
We’ve bought two homes now through Jesse, one of which was a short sale. I can say with confidence that the deal would not have happened if it weren’t for Jesse’s personal efforts.
They’ve got a good thing going on at the Greenhouse group. I think the whole realtor market is going to get a wake-up call soon, and service – oriented guys like Jesse will be the big winners.

Jesse and his team were incredible assets to have in my corner throughout the entire process of home-buying. They made everything painless all the while keeping me in the loop and communicating quickly and efficiently. It was like having a personal assistant for a couple of months. Things just took care of themselves (credit to the team who make it appear seamless!). Great negotiator, expert advice and fun! Don't think twice about working with Jesse!

I recently bought my first house with the help of Jesse at the GreenHouse Group and it was a great experience. I cannot compare it to previous experience but from stories from friends, I know that we had a great team working with us. Everyone was friendly and knowledgeable. They were always available for questions or just to listen to my concerns. The communication was great! It was great that we had a web page where we could communicate and see what everyone was working on so I was never in the dark with the home buying process. They were great with my busy schedule and were able to work around my frequent trips out of town and to make time outside normal business hours to get me in my house quickly!!! If I ever decide to sell/ buy, I know that I will go back to Jesse and his team at The GreenHouse Group! And I recommend them to all of my friends!

My house sold in a day, for more than I expected and I can honestly say it was because of Jesse and his team at the GHG. From very early on, Jesse and his team provided me with guidance and suggestions to prepare myself and my house for the selling process. As soon as we were ready to put the house on the market, Jesse and his team were smart and strategic and my house sold QUICK! Jesse was able to negotiate deals that even surprised me! The whole team is fantastic, everyone is amazing at what they do. The GHG feels like family now and I will definitely use them again when I'm ready to buy.

I could use a lot of exclamation points and hyperbole to review the Greenhouse Group, but the best way I can sum up our home-buying experience is really the simplest: After working with Jesse, Jeremy, Shelly, and the entire support staff, I can't imagine trusting anyone else in the San Diego area to help us buy or sell a home. From our first interaction, a Skype video-call set up because we were living overseas, to being handed the keys to our new home, the entire Greenhouse Group were consummate professionals. Even now, several months after closing on our house, Jesse has made himself available for follow-up questions about home value and possible improvements.

The team at Greenhouse Group deserves every positive review out there- I trusted them with helping me to buy a house that would be an investment into my family, and they repaid that trust by helping us to find, finance, and buy the perfect San Diego home. A positive review is the least I can do to repay them.

Jesse not only helped me buy a home, he helped me buy TWO homes and sell one. He and his team are the absolutely best - the combination of knowledge, integrity and sharklike persistence he has cultivated and will bring to your real estate journey is unmatched. I've worked with Jesse, another agent Carmen, mortgage planner/broken Dave, staging expert Renata and escrow genius Christine and they have all been priceless in helping me be successful in these transactions. I can't recommend them highly enough.

From start to finish, Jesse and his team at the GreenHouse Group (GHG) did a phenomenal job selling our San Diego home. We received a full price offer on the home 2 days BEFORE it went on the market and closed on schedule. In the earliest phase of the process, Jesse and Jeremy helped us determine whether it was in our best interest to sell the home or retain it as a rental property. Once we decided to sell, Jesse and the GHG team expertly advised us on the preparation of home for the market in a short time frame - from determining which elements of the home needed upgrading to staging the property. In doing so, they also provided us with a comprehensive list of local home service providers to assist us including a handyman, professional cleaner, and lawn maintenance, all of whom were outstanding and made us wish that we’d found them earlier! Once we were under contract, we came to even more fully appreciate Jesse and the GHG, most notably Christine, as they were extremely helpful in navigating a complex and demanding escrow process. All along the way, they were professional, communicative, highly responsive, empathetic, and proactive in representing our interests. Their attention to detail and emphasis on customer service is remarkable. We couldn’t imagine having gone through this difficult process without their counsel and we are excited to recommend the GHG team to others.

After thirteen bids over the past eighteen months with no success, I was ready to give up on ever finding my ideal home. As a first-time, well-qualified buyer, it took Jesse's knowledge and expertise to finally get me the home of my dreams. His weekly video updates, friendly staff and superb service made the process as smooth and painless as possible.

The customer service at The Greenhouse Group really is some of the best. The tool box and survival kit provided by Jesse and his team during this process were thoughtful, yet very handy gifts. I'm sure no other agency provides these to their clients. I feel like this was more than just about buying a home, it was about building a trusting relationship. Thanks, Jesse! You're the best.

I'm so glad I found these guys! I read the great reviews on Yelp, and decided to give them a shot, and I can honestly say that they made the unpleasant process of purchasing a short sale as smooth as it could be.

The GreenHouse Group is really all about getting to know your needs as a client, so they can construct your story every step of the way. This "storyline" process is indicative of the personal touches that GHG had shown throughout our entire house purchasing experience. Jesse will use your story to create a vision of what you're really looking for, and he will narrow down the field so that you can find the perfect house for you. We think that this strategy worked really well, and provided a very pleasant departure from the assembly line thinking of most realtors and sales people where the only vision they see are dollar signs.

I am a type "A" personality when it comes to financial transactions, so I was very active in working with Jesse, Jeremy, and Andrea throughout this process - and they were really fantastic in accommodating, and allowing me to be more proactive with things that I'm sure they aren't accustomed to. We even had a change in our "vision" midstream that I sprung on Jesse, and again, he was very accommodating.

These folks work HARD for you. There were several instances when I was emailing back and forth with members of GHG around 11PM, on weekday and weekend nights to get stuff answered...WAY above and beyond the call of duty in my opinion!
