Kurt is one of the kindest and most knowledgeable real estate professionals it has ever been my pleasure to work with. During my search for a new home in San Diego County, he went above and beyond the expected, carefully listening to our needs and wants in a new home, finding properties that entirely met that criteria, providing great advice on the condition of each property and commute-ability of the neighborhood, and taking the time necessary to help us find our “forever home.” The purchase experience was free of the stress and worry I had experienced in several past real estate transactions, thanks to his years of experience and knowledge in the field of Southern California real estate. His aura of confidence, can-do attitude, and incredible “people skills” were evident in every interaction with people involved in this purchase. He was right there with us through every step of the home-buying process, offering us great advice and referring us to exceptional pros in each area of expertise. Because of that, our home inspection uncovered a few items we needed to address immediately, sparing us any surprises after the sale. Kurt offered us excellent referrals, not only to our home inspector, but also exceptional insurance providers, escrow services, and lenders. I heartily recommend Kurt Francis to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home or property. He is a total pro—and one of a kind!
