Testimonials

I can’t say enough great things about Peter — Jumping into trying to purchase my home/real estate property he made it easy and painless. From answering all my hundreds of questions to explaining details that I didn’t notice he was extremely valuable every step of the way. I also appreciated that even though the area we were searching was not his normal area of practice he put in the extra effort to do his due diligence and research to find the perfect home.

Even though there were 30+ houses that we saw together and multiple offers Peter was along side me every step of the way making sure this big decision for me was something I was always comfortable with and giving his valuable insight when needed. He provided knowledge and advice that one would normally not think of and I felt he wanted to best for me rather than just trying to close out on a deal and this made me appreciate him and understand why he came with such a high recommendation!

We recommend Peter to everyone! His attention to detail and organization made the process stress free. You always feel like his first priority, and he is prepared for every step of the process from knowing about the houses and neighborhoods you are viewing to ensuring nothing is overlooked in the inspections and closing paperwork. His step by step website was informative and guided us through the process. Peter was a pleasure to work with and without him we would not be in our beautiful new home.

Peter is a true professional. He always has the best interests of his clients in mind, and I would recommend him without reservation. He worked with me through a complicated transaction tirelessly. I even got a higher price than was listed! Thanks, Peter!

I reached out to Pete when I decided I wanted to move to North County San Diego. We searched for a home over the course of six months. During that time, he was consistently there to answer any questions or concerns I had and he would arm me with the information I needed to make a decision. He even had a website just for me that explained every step of the process so I could always know what was next. While he would give me his opinion, he always made it clear that I was in charge and would take whatever direction I chose. While I have worked with other agents, Pete’s service was superior and I appreciated that I could always rely on him. I would use him again in the future and would recommend him to others.

Working with Pete was awesome! He was extremely knowledgeable about the home sale process & was always available to answer any questions we had. Pete literally made the sale of our home happen, if it weren’t for his expertise, our home would still be on the market! Thank you for everything Pete!!

Peter is amazing! This was our first home-buying experience and Peter expertly answered any questions we had; we never felt as though we were asking an uneducated question or that we should know all the answers. Buying a home in this market is one of the most difficult situations and Peter was always patient, available, he worked within our schedules, and took the time to provide us with research and details about each home we viewed. Personally, we felt as though Peter’s professionalism, honesty, and fun personality shone through in every interaction we had with him, which made us trust him and value his knowledge. We are now in a home we love and have Peter to thank for all of his dedication and commitment.

We were out-of-town sellers, so we knew we needed to find an agent that we could trust and who would do their best to handle everything in our absence. Peter was up to the task. He was available 24/7 and made us feel confident that he was handling everything. Peter went above and beyond other agents and I would gladly recommend him to others.

Peter Bolane is the best realtor we ever worked with: he was very sensitive to our needs and budget, was always available to resolve issues or simply chat, and exceeded our expectations regarding responsiveness and professionalism. We chose to work with Peter as he had a combination of talents that are hard to find: personable, responsive, thorough and a great knowledge of the housing market in the areas we were interested in. He explained the entire process from start to finish and we could tell he cared about our needs. You can trust Peter to go above and beyond to find you the right house at a fair price. We highly recommend Peter for future real estate needs.

I have known Peter for some time now and, based on who he is and what I’ve heard from others, knew that I would want to work with him when given the chance. He was everything and then some and went above and beyond to support my family with our needs. His communication throughout the process was excellent and we really felt he listened to and incorporated our unique needs. I would highly recommend Peter to anyone.

Our gratitude is hard to put into words. Peter helped us through a very complex real estate transaction. To say he went above and beyond as a realtor is a gross understatement. He mitigated so many challenges before they even reached us that we were virtually unaffected by them. And, since we were long-distance, we found great relief in his ability to stage appropriately, provide beautiful photos, and—above all—his guidance throughout the process from determining the price to meeting with dozens of potential buyers, and from assessing the multiple offers to helping us accept the right one. I am sure I am not even covering the bulk of what he did for us, but suffice it to say, you’d be doing yourself a disservice if you had the opportunity to work with Peter and didn’t. I can’t wait until we can buy a property there again and there is no question who we would trust as a realtor for our next transaction.

Peter, thank you for your professionalism and continued courtesy while consistently working behind the scenes on our behalf. There were some challenges to listing our home for sale, both during a pandemic and with tenants in place, but Peter was up for the task. He leveraged the use of technology to facilitate showings and to minimize impact on everyone involved. As issues inevitably arose during the transaction, Peter coached us on ways to handle the situation but would respectfully leave the final decision up to us. He was always very responsive to our calls, emails and texts. We would happily recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, trustworthy agent.

I can’t think of anything that could have been better. Pete was amazing through the entire process, from start to finish. Communication was excellent and he was always available to answer questions. We truly felt like he cared about us and our wants/needs and never felt any sort of pressure from him. We looked for a long time and Pete stuck with us through many viewings and many declined offers. The market was crazy and honestly I don’t think we would have been able to get an offer accepted if it wasn’t for Pete. We are forever thankful!

We had been watching the housing market for months, so when we saw the listing for our home we knew we had to act fast. Pete arranged a tour of the property that Saturday and worked over the weekend to help us write a great cover letter and get an offer in by Monday! He offered really good advice that helped us beat a contingent offer already made on the house. Once our offer was accepted, Pete was extremely helpful and guided us through all of the paperwork. As first time home buyers, we really appreciated that he took the time to explain the entire process. Pete is dedicated to his work, often putting in his own time to read through all of the documentation (including HOA docs). He even created a google sheet for each line item in our 140+ page inspection report with columns for estimates and links to example products – this really helped us price the house we were buying. We were extremely happy with our home-buying experience and would recommend Pete to anyone!

Thank you so much for all your hard work Pete! Without your professionalism, timeliness, consideration and thoroughness we surely wouldn’t have secured our place within a few days of seeing it. Would 10/10 recommend to any friend or stranger who is looking to buy/sell in North County. Pete’s the man!

Pete was a great help throughout the home buying process. He helped me get the jump on new properties–sometimes before they were even on the market. We looked at several homes together and his insights into each property helped me hone in on the right one for me.

While there were multiple offers for the home I wanted, Pete gave me some tips that helped my offer get accepted without raising the asking price. I am grateful that I had him to turn to during this process as he always took the time to answer all of my questions and concerns in a prompt manner. Pete would provide me with a summary and explanation with each document I received and even gave me a spreadsheet breaking down various costs with links to purchase and contractor recommendations.

I would not hesitate to use him again and have already recommended him to a friend of mine as I know Pete will take excellent care of him.

My wife and I began looking for a house in N. County San Diego in 2017. Pete was our agent from day one. He shared several properties with us that we were interested in. We toured each property and put in offers on 2 of them, but were outbid both times. My wife and I were discouraged and let the search idle for several months. Pete continued to send us properties and encouraged us to be patient. In December 2018 we toured a property that we liked and was in a very good elementary school district. When Pete met us there, he had all documentation with local stats, house info and sellers disclosures. We found this very helpful because the market for homes can be very competitive and if you want to move quickly, it helps to have all the information in-hand. My wife and I put in an offer the next day and it was accepted.

We owe everything to Pete. He was available 24-7. We had many questions and concerns that he answered and shared advice. Pete is a local guy that’s knowledgeable about school districts, demographics and real estate trends. We are happy to recommend Pete to anyone in N. County San Diego looking for a home.

With the help of Pete, we have moved into a larger home that is PERFECT for our growing family! Pete truly worked for us and had our best interest during every step of selling our home and purchasing the new one we fell in love with.

We had been thinking of selling our home for awhile and when we decided to pull the trigger and do it quickly, Pete jumped into action and made it happen with very little time. With a two-month old baby, getting our home presentable for showings was often difficult. Pete would assist in any way possible to make the process easier. We received a full price offer in five days and closed on both homes a few weeks later.

Pete made every aspect of buying and selling smooth and as stress free as possible. I believe it went smoothly because Pete kept us in the loop during every step of the process so nothing came as a surprise. Pete is honest and will tell you the pros and cons which help in making the best decision.

I could not ask for better service from Pete. He went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. We recommend him to everybody we know who may be selling or buying.

Thank you Pete,

Happy new home owners – Don & Cat

My wife and I have been through several real estate transactions over the years and I must say that Peter made this the easiest yet. If any issue arose, Peter took care of it or gave us all the information we needed to make our decision. He responded to our phone, text and emails quickly and made it easy to sign documents online. He kept us informed along the way and addressed our concerns.

We felt that Peter wasn’t trying to make a quick sale but that he cared about our needs and even helped us pick the ideal time to sell our home. When we put our home on the market, we had multiple offers and were able to close within a month.

Highly recommended!

Peter sets a new standard for service in the real estate industry. At a time when others are focused on moving quickly, Peter is focused on doing it right, giving you the best information, providing consistent communication, and really taking the experience to the next level. We were so impressed with his knowledge on the pricing and timing of the transaction. We could not be happier. He was always willing to answer questions and to alleviate any concerns we had about this sale. His embraces new technologies that I believe directly led to a smooth process. Highly recommended.

Peter was very professional, answered every question I had in a timely manner, was always available for communication by phone, text, and email. He knew exactly what needed to be done to sell our home quickly. He took care of everything! I would highly recommend Peter!

Patricia P. Vista, CA

Peter made it possible for me to find the perfect home in a perfect location at a great price. I felt that I was provided with expert guidance, support and patience! Thank you Peter…for transporting me to all the showings and open houses in addition to answering any and all of my questions. You truly made buying my California home an enjoyable and effortless experience. If anyone I know ever needs realtor services, I would definitely recommend Peter Bolane without reservation.

Peter was willing to go the extra mile for us with a complex transaction rarely executed in the market. He patiently and diligently researched this deal and throughout its execution he was the difference between success and failure. I won’t be using any other agent in SoCal – his level of service spoiled me and that is what you want when taking on such a big investment.

Julie N. Carlsbad, CA

We couldn’t be happier with Peter. We hired him to sell our mother-in-laws home. He advised us on what to tweak and it sold within a week, above asking price. We were so pleased with his stress-free communication and expertise we had Peter list our own home two years later. After listening to his advice, we took a few weeks getting our home fixed up, incredibly transformed with his stagers and ready to sell. We knew that the pool of buyers for $2M+ homes was smaller, but without lowering our price, he was able to get the home sold–and during a slow time of year. His track record and continuing results speak for themselves!

Maureen G. Carlsbad, CA

Peter has now helped me with both buying and selling a home. Although there were other agents who wanted to assist me, I chose to use him again because of his excellent service. He went above and beyond to help me throughout the entire process. Peter had a concrete plan to get the home sold and I couldn’t be happier with the final result: my home sold in less than a week, with multiple offers to choose from and above asking price. Thanks Peter!

Roger R. Vista, CA

Peter has helped me with two transactions now and I can confidently recommend him to anyone looking for a competent, hard working agent. When I was looking for a tenant for a rental property, Peter was sure to protect my best interests. When I decided to sell that same property, Peter has been helpful from start to finish.

Prior to selling, he made recommendations on things that I could do to get top dollar for the property. When it was listed, he did a great job getting the home a lot of exposure. When we had interested buyers, he was able to negotiate an excellent sales price.

Simply put, Peter was a trustworthy advocate and I’d recommend him to anyone.
