“Jeff was great to work with and very knowledgeable, he made the process very smoothand even fun at times. He was always helpful and had a great attitude,even when we got stung by a swarm of angry beeswhen their hive was being relocated! Jeff was quick to respond, organized and verypatient while I was hunting for a hard to find property.”
“We just signed the final papers and the relief is amazing! Selling a home while trying to buy a new one is a crazy juggling act and I was terrified. Our realtor stepped in, calmed us down, and lined up both closing dates perfectly. The marketing on our old place was so good we had a buyer in three days. Then he fiercely negotiated on the house we wanted to upsize to. It felt like watching a master at work and we are completely settled in now.”
“I am officially writing this from the couch of my brand new living room! We were so burned out from looking at houses on our own and getting absolutely nowhere in this tough San Diego market. Switching to an agent who actually has over two decades of experience changed the whole game for us. He got us in to see places before they even hit the regular apps using a personalized search tool. When we finally found our dream home, his negotiation strategy was spot on and we won without even being the highest bid.”
“Guys, I cannot tell you how amazing it has been to work with Jeff. Ten years ago when we moved to San Diego, he was our buying agent and helped us secure a great property for a wonderful price. A decade later, I still call him a friend and he sold that same property for us. I couldn’t have been happier with the process. Jeff has remained the steady, knowledgeable, kind, and aggressive agent anyone would love to have in their corner. As a military member who has moved many times, Jeff has been by far our best agent we’ve worked with. He is prompt with his correspondence, has the perfect balance in his council of market realism vs. ambition, has a great team at his disposal. Would give six stars if I could.”
“Jeff helped me purchase a home in San Diego while I was still living on the east coast. I knew little about the area and required a lot of assistance. He was readily available with knowledgeable guidance and extra support. He blocked off a weekend to show me around and I found my ideal home in the first two days. With Jeff's help the negotiation process and closing were seamless. During the months between closing and my move, he was diligent in attending to the property and helping me schedule improvements.”
“As a first time homebuyer on a tough time crunch, we couldn’t have asked for a better person to guide us through that process. Jeff took his time to educate us through every step, answered any question we had (and fairly quickly might I add!) and spent some longgg Saturdays with our family looking at homes. His ability to negotiate, communicate, provide recommendations, and identify all areas for concern was truly unmatched. Highly recommend!”
“I have been a Mortgage Advisor for 24 years, have worked with thousands of real estate agents, and Jeff is among the best. His commitment to his clients best interest, knowledge, and negotiation skills, are among the best.”
“We hired Jeff Hinds to sell our house in San Carlos. We first interviewed several agents to select someone we liked and could trust, and we found Jeff to be very personable and easy to work with. He also demonstrated a strong knowledge of the current marketplace, and combined with his historical experience, he helped to establish the range of expectations. Jeff provided sound advice on pricing the house, staging and preparing the house/property for the market, and supporting an appropriate number of open houses based on market activity. He also provided valuable guidance during more than one buyer negotiation as we navigated the pros and cons of seller decisions. We sold the home in nine weeks during the summer of 2025 and we felt that he helped us maximize the value in the house for the market conditions. We would definitely hire Jeff again.”
“Selling my home of over 50 years was going to be a daunting experience and I anticipated much confusion. I had to have a real estate agent that would be knowing, understanding, patient and calm. I chose Jeff Hinds upon a recommendation of a friend and he proved to be exactly what I needed. Knowledgable and resourceful, he closed the sale of my home in a timely manner, at a fair price and with undue stress on my part. I would recommend Jeff Hinds to anyone looking for a real estate agent who is honest and who makes their client's needs a priority.”
“Jeff is such a great realtor to work with. For us, in both buying and then eventually selling the same house 3 years later. He has always been easy for us to get ahold of, and went way out of his way to make both our purchase and sale as easy and smooth as possible. He put a ton of time and effort into getting our house sold for us - helping coordinate and then meeting with: various trades, cleaners, stagers, repairmen, plumbers, electricians, termite-repair professionals (he also has a great roster of various tradesmen to refer for any possible type of home repair); coordinating showings and open houses - all after we’d already moved across the country. He helped so much in guiding us through a stressful period with some big roadblocks and complications that came up during the original purchase process of the house back in 2022 - also from completely across the country. All this to say it was much appreciated coming from a military family with the strict timeline and potential need for “remote-coordination” that comes with military moves. All of his recommendations and his dedication in guiding us through the ins-and-outs of a multitude of offers and then eventually finding us the right buyer (and consulting and fighting for us with various appraisers to set the most competitive price) were much appreciated. Especially with the current state of the market as well as the hiccups that come along with buying and selling a fixer-upper, let alone a 40+ year old house. His familiarity of and experience with the SD area (and with the intricacies of our specific neighborhood) were a life-saver when it came to 1. finding the right buyer 2. justifying the value of the neighborhood, house and all of our renovations and 3. especially in finding applicable and appropriate comps. For anyone in the San Diego area looking to either buy or sell a home, we highly recommend Jeff Hinds and would expect anyone and everyone else to have nothing but great things to say about working with him!”
