What clients are saying about Rick DiBello

Outstanding Service. Everything was great...The updated list of homes via email was a great tool in streamlining the looking process... We really appreciated your honesty when looking at the different properties and felt 100% confident when putting an offer in on our place. You did a terrific job at understanding what we were looking for. Thanks again for everything, we will of course recommend you to any friends or family who might be looking for a new home!

Sean and Erin N.

 

Once again, many thanks. You should know that I think this is extremely professional of you and a great service to me. I will always use you for my property investments; you have always been so responsive caring and truthful. Always keeping (our) best interests as your utmost concern. Not easy to find in today's market. You really understand the value of giving good and truthful advice and keeping customers for the long term rather than making a quick kill and having someone unhappy with a  wrong decision. Thanks for all you do,

Keith R.

 

Rick DiBello is very knowledgeable in the Orange County area and he will not waste your time looking at houses you would not be interested in. He does his homework. Rick knew every phase of the sale. He kept up with the
deadlines and solved any problem that came up. He is very resourceful. Rick went above and beyond my expectations, and I wouldn't work with anyone else in Orange County for residential sales.

Outstanding service! Buying a home or property can be quite stressful and time consuming for busy people. Your attention to detail, proactive ideas and preparation beforehand allowed us to find our home in record time with a shortened stress period. Your sense of humor was greatly appreciated, especially helpful in overcoming our jet lag daze.Your prep work and timing in the showing of homes was in my opinion outstanding. Your opinions (positive & negative) on each home was for me a big help. For us, another big deciding factor with choosing a home, was the schools available and their rating/reputation. Having a list of ratings was a big help as we had no other sources to turn to at the time. Your introductions to the main players in the escrow proceedures, advice on timing and negotiations were spot on. We have purchased quite a few properties in the past, with this escrow being, by far, the smoothest.

Mike & Patty S.

 

Outstanding Service! Very positive and fun. I really appreciated the insight and experience you brought to the home buying process, and would certainly recommend your services to friends and family. Thank you for helping find our little casita. We love it.

Kathleen C. and Chris K.

 

Outstanding service!! (You were) very patient (and) always appeared to truly have our best interests in mind. I always felt that if we needed to hear something, you would say it. You wanted to provide us with the best solution.

Nathalie and Stephen G.

 

I sent Rick an e-mail when I saw his Internet site. He responded immediately to help me with my search. He sent me listings daily and followed up with his own very detailed e-mails. He really took alot of time and didn't try to just "Sell" me anything. I will recommend Rick to anyone I hear that is looking for a place to buy :)

Cassidy K.

 

Outstanding Service! We had a great experience working with you. We always looked forward to our trips not only to see our possible new homes but to seeing you as well. Not only would I recommend you to friends and family but I am tempted to start the process all over again because we had such a great time. As you know my boys both thought we were moving in with "Uncle Rick" and were very disappointed when they realized they were not!

Mark & Kathy S.

 

Outstanding Service. Thanks very much for your professionalism, excellent people skills, and the human (relations) elements of honesty and integrity. (You showed) maximum patience and availability...with an outstanding ability to adjust to the (our) inconsistencies as to what (we) wanted in a home. Thanks very much.

Bill & Susie M.

 

Let's face it, moving is never an easy prospect...and neither is relocating long distance! Both of us have dealt with realtors in the past, but never with one who was so helpful... We had two other realtors [before] contacting Mr. DiBello... We had unanswered inquiries, promises of info to be sent out, and we never seen a thing. From the moment we started working with Rick, things started progressing normally & smoothly...I have yet to shake the man's hand, but I smile every time I think of him! If you ever get the hankering to move out to Southern California, this IS the man to call beyond ANY doubt!

Laura & Kurt S.

 

I will have absolutely no hesitation in recommending you as an agent to anyone I can. The experience has been smooth, professional and your response and caring attitude has been beyond any expectations I could have had. Service like this is unusual today to say the least.

Keith R.

 

Outstanding service! I can't think of anything that could have improved our home search. We looked at every property in the area within our price range and you were able to give us straightforward advice about each one. You also went above and beyond to keep the half of us on the other side of the country engaged and informed .... finally with your help we found a wonderful house! Your advice, knowledge of CA real estate, humor and most importantly friendship made all the difference.

Kent & Linda S.

 

Outstanding service! We feel that your personality is the only one that we could have worked with for the long and difficult process in very difficult market conditions. Finding the right house took longer than expected, but was well worth the time it took.

Rob & Gail B.

 

Outstanding service. GREAT experience. You showed me a lot of options, were creative, and took the time to help me find what I was looking for. Would highly recommend you to everyone I know. Really enjoyed it.

Amy L.

 

Outstanding service. We felt very comfortable with your style. You were perceptive and helped us define our needs and desires within the framework of our budget. You were very attentive (but not overbearing) throughout the process and saw to it that the escrow and closing went as planned. The use of email during the search phase was useful and saved time.

Roger & Carol O.

 

I know sales representatives that would have dropped us after the first meeting... Thanks for hanging in there. You dug deeper into understanding what appeals to us even though it appeared our preferences seemed to change by the minute. Thank you for introducing us to half of Orange County and our new home!

Ron & Heather B.

 

Outstanding Service! It was great working with you, and the low pressure environment surely helped us get what we wanted without feeling obligated. We were very happy with your patience and knowledge of the areas. We were impressed at the level of knowledge which was more than what even the property listing agent could provide!

John & Anita I.

 

I would recommend Rick to anyone who wants to work with a staight shooter who gets the job done. If you want someone who is all about image, overpriced neighborhoods, flashy cars with gold packages and fake fingernails--don't call Rick. There are a lot of realtors out there who claim to be pros at personal selling and who provide great service, but in fact her are few who can measure up to their own self-pomotion. Rick DiBello stands head and shoulders above the rest of Orange County's RE professionals, because he not only takes the time to get to know his clients, he asks them the hard questions they haven't even asked themselves when it comes to making the decision of buying a home. Rick then takes that information and begins his search in earnest.

Rick got to know my personal likes and dislikes as well as my housing needs then he cut through all the noise and showed me homes that truly fit my budget and lifestyle. Most real estate brokers try to upsell you--so they get a fatter commission check. Rick didn't play that game with me; instead he listened and spent countless hours previewing homes to show me until all listings were exhausted. His relaxed demeanor is real, but he's an aggressive and tireless consultant who gets the job done. And it doesn't hurt that he know the area inside and out--including restaurants, schools, and traffic patterns.

Outstanding service! Rick's personality is so well suited to this work. Home shopping is emotional and stressful. He is very calming and supportive.

Having personally purchased 9-10 homes I feel well positioned to say that I have never received such prompt and comprehensive service delivered consistantly over a process which took over 10 months; a test of time which separates professionals into catagories. Rick is in a catagory by himself - it's a category we all still believe in, but rarely find ourselves operating in.

_{Cory & David Q.}

 

Outstanding service! You are an excellent agent who should be teaching others in your profession how to do it the right way. We so appreciated your honesty and integrity.

_{Steve & Claire P.}

 

We cannot thank you enough for all the hard work you have done for us. Your knowledge, experience and professionalism was very evident while representing us in our search for a new home. I told our agent here that we consider you a life long friend. Before we starting looking for a house, we asked God to send us an agent we could trust and be comfortable with. He sent you to us. We are very thankful for that.

_{David & Linda R.}

 

Very good service. We especially liked your preparation prior to our viewing properties. You had physically previewed each property. Therefore, you able to talk about the positives and negatives of each. You knew your inventory and the areas in which they were located. We were very impressed with that. We appreciated and used the package of data that you provided. I think you handled our side of the negotiations very well.

You were very thorough, detailed, accurate, knowledgeable about the inventory. Excellent and timely communication throughout the entire process. We felt greatly supported and professionally represented. Not only that, we felt we made a new friend. Rick, thanks a lot.

_{Bert & Louise D.}

 

We are so glad we ran into your Web page! You immediately made us feel comfortable with your genuine personality. Unlike many of our previous contacts, you were truly interested in our needs. You gave us valuable information about the area and invested quality time to really get to know us. We like your work ethics and are pleased with your negotiation and representation you provided us.

_{Dan & Teri W.}

 

Outstanding service! You are the best! I really enjoyed working with you. You are not only a great realtor, you're a great person too.

_{Scott & Debbie G.}

 

I am quite sad to announce our decision [not to move to Orange County], especially after the many hours you have dedicated to our real estate needs. We have been truly impressed with the efficiency, professionalism, insight, and kindness that shows throughout all your work! Dominique and I feel very lucky to have been able to work with you.

_{Dominique & Diane M.}

 

Outstanding service! We corresponded for a year before we even met so I felt like I had an old friend on my side. Can't get any better than that.

_{Tony & Karen H.}

 

James Brown has nothing on you, Rick, you are the hardest working man in show business! We really enjoyed working with you and you found us exactly what we were looking for. We would GLADLY recommend you to any friends or family that might be moving in to the area.

_{Mike & Courtney Z.}

 

This was a great experience for us! THANK YOU! We loved the quick response time. We loved the ability to communicate by email. We loved the accessibility we had to you. We loved your computer savvy and the fact that you could send us floor plans and comps within a matter of hours. I've already given your name to the friend I told you about, so hopefully she'll contact you soon. If my Mom decides to move here, we'll contact you again!

Rick was the best-prepared agent we have ever met. If you’re looking for property in Orange County, you’re unlikely to find an agent as dedicated and professional as Rick DiBello. He was always there for us – patient, thorough and ethical.

_{David & Tami M.}

 

Outstanding service. Thanks a million, Rick!!!! Don't know how we would have gotten through escrow without you.

_{Jeff & Terri M.}

 

Great job. Biggest strength is that you are not a "salesperson." We really enjoyed working with you and never felt "pressured." Your honesty and integrity are unparalleled. We always could count on you to give us your honest opinion and not lead us down a wrong path--even if it meant adversely affecting you financially. We're always a little cynical dealing with real estate people and after some of the ones we met together on the seller side, I'm sure you can understand why. You helped break many of the negative stereotypes we had. You're follow-up with us after the deal was closed was also impressive.

_{Bill & Audrey S.}

 

Outstanding service. The whole process worked very well for us. The preview of homes via e-mail was great. I liked the low-pressure sales experience. I also thought that the time you took to find us a third-party property manager was great.

_{Jim & Lorna N.}

 

Outstanding service. You performed beyond our expectations and certainly better than our previous experiences with real estate people. You're generous with your time, quite honest in your business dealings, spent a lot of time finding us what we required, returned phone calls within a reasonable time period, negotiated with ease and most of all you were not a "Hard Sell" in the negative sense of the word. Also, your loan contacts made the whole transaction work for us.

_{Alonzo & Rose K.}

 

Outstanding service. You were a pleasure to work with! You've redeemed my image of people in real estate.

_{Bob & Varda N.}

 

Good service. I enjoyed working with you. You are extremely personable. _{Gary & Margaret S.}

 

Very good service. Your follow-up was perfect. Preparation was excellent. We enjoyed working with you.

_{Ryan & Amy G.}

 

Your service is wonderful! You were right on top of previewing houses, and showing me just the ones that met my criteria. I can't think of anything you could have done to improve your service. You were so sensitive to my needs that I would recommend you to my friends and family without hesitation.

_{Arana G.}

 

Your service was grand. We had a wonderful experience shopping for our new home. You provided us with all the information we needed to help us purchase our first home. And you gave us a delicious pasta dinner! We would happily recommend your services.

_{Darrin G. & Donna P.}

 

Your service was excellent! I enjoyed working with you via e-mail. You responded very quickly and sent me everything I needed, asked for, etc. You are very easy to work with, you respond quickly and are very knowledgeable!

_{Monique C.}

 

You service was outstanding! You were one of the best realtors we've worked with. You listened and understood our needs, only showed us properties that made sense for us, and overall were a delight to work with. We would absolutely work with you again.

Rick won't waste your time. He's a pleasure to work with, no pressure, professional, and knows his job. We highly recommend him.

_{Wayne & Lisa D.}

 

Outstanding service! Very comfortable relationship. Rick is very professional and very skilled at recognizing his customers' personalities and matching them to a home. Working with him is a good decision you will ultimately be grateful for.

_{Barbara A.}

 

He's the best!!!

_{Colleen C.}

 

Glad to be working with you. You really care about your clients.

_{Rick Y., Home Inspector}

Outstanding service! Realtor, interior designer, tour guide, counselor... A+ job at all of them. You zeroed in on our (sometimes conflicting!) preferences and your recommendations were right on. I would like to add more, but it would go to your head! :-)
