Excellent! He communicates effectively and clearly. Also, he is a skilled negotiator. As a realtor, he is extremely detailed, professional, and reliable, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. He is easy to work with and always goes the extra mile for his clients. He helped me to purchase a home as a first-time home buyer and reviewed all the details for me.

We are so thankful and lucky to have Minju help us on our journey of purchasing our very first home! My wife and I are expecting our first child and need to start looking for a house as soon as possible. Luckily, we had the best realtor in Minju to guide us through this complex process from beginning to end. Knowledge: We can see immediately that Minju has a strong understanding of the real estate field and stays in touch with current events, changes in rules, and important data in specific cities. He explained to us in detail what the steps would be during the buying process. He explained how quickly the process would move, what important dates to pay attention to during escrow, and even aspects of inspection and remodeling. Preparation: Minju got us started quickly by sending us photos and videos, and links to houses we might be interested in. From there, he was able to get an idea of our taste and style, and I think he figured us out pretty quickly. He then set up time to visit open houses and always came prepared with information such as the pros or cons of each house. Minju always arrived on time and had paperwork for us to review. Communication: Not only was Minju very good at answering our questions and responding quickly to text messages and phone calls, but he was also very proactive and took the initiative to ask us questions first and inform us ahead of time so that we always stayed on schedule. Minju is great at explaining the process and making it easier to understand terms and numbers we are not aware of. Minju always has a positive attitude, is very kind, and very friendly, which makes the process much easier to digest, as we feel very comfortable and at ease when making decisions together as a team. Efficiency: I now understand buying a home has a lot to do with quick timing, and Minju was very impressive in terms of quickly and accurately making sure we stayed on schedule. I always felt like I was in good hands. We never had to wait long for him to respond to a text or an email. Often, he was actually ahead of us and could predict our thought process. He was able to write the offer letter very quickly after we chose the house, and it was also very thoughtful and represented us very well. He was also able to work efficiently with the other listing agent to make sure all parties were moving together at an appropriate pace to get the deal done. Negotiating: You can tell Minju loves what he does, and I had a lot of confidence in him to make a deal because he had confidence in himself and faith in the work we had done. You can tell Minju wants what is best for his client because he will be vocal about specific changes that he feels must be made to make things fair for both parties and will make sure to include all the important details. He will also ask you for input before making big decisions. I can see he is able to create a healthy and effective deal-making process due to his positive and calm attitude, as well as keeping an open line of communication with transparency and honesty. Organization: Minju did a great job keeping all of our many documents, listings, emails, etc, organized throughout the entire process. He kept our open house listings organized through a website and with consistent emails. He was also able to gather our financial documents and make them presentable and streamlined for the offer letter. He was also able to connect us to the lender and other third-party experts, and act as a bridge between us all through the process so that all of us were on the same page. Overall, we could not have asked for a better realtor to work with. Buying a house is a life-changing event, and it is no easy task to take on, but Minju has all the skills you would want in a professional to handle such a task. Friendly, reliable, fast, organized, knowledgeable, thoughtful, and much more. All I have left to say is that Minju is the true definition of "going above and beyond." Thank you!
