"My husband and I can't say enough about the Joslin Team, Crystal and Brenton. We met Crystal and Brenton at an Open House during our home search and were immediately impressed by their upbeat personalities and the beauty and personal touch in their presentation of this home...it was like a Million Dollar Listing event! You knew they went the extra mile for their clients (the sellers) and perspective buyers. Although the timing was not right for the purchase of this house we knew that Crystal and Brenton would be our realtors. When ...

We met Crystal and Brenton at an Open House during our home search and were immediately impressed by their upbeat personalities and the beauty and personal touch in their presentation of this home...it was like a Million Dollar Listing event! You knew they went the extra mile for their clients (the sellers) and perspective buyers. Although the timing was not right for the purchase of this house we knew that Crystal and Brenton would be our realtors. When we were ready to buy the experience was amazing. Buying a home can be extremely stressful but Crystal and Brenton seamlessly guide you through every step of the process. You know that they are doing everything in their power and beyond to protect you as a buyer. There are so many amazing aspects of this twosome but their "concierge" skills are a buyers dream scenario. Crystal and Brenton are able to suggest/provide various contractors that they will schedule for you and each contractor has been impressive with their insight...again removing stress from the buyer. Additionally, Crystal and Brenton have great taste and a good eye for renovations.We strongly recommend the Joslin Team if you are planning on selling or buying a home! These are two beautiful people who you can trust and have complete confidence in! Thank you Crystal and Brenton for making our home purchase a happy time!

"Crystal and Brenton were top notch on the sale of our home and helping us to find a new home so we could downsize. Everything from taking us to look at houses and helping us to narrow down our options, to staging our own home and hosting open houses were critical as we made the transition through the many stages of selling and buying. Crystal’s questions, responses to our questions, advice and follow-up were incredibly helpful.

Brenton’s technical background in the housing industry offered even more perspective as we evaluated properties. They offered expert referrals so we could prepare our house for the market, contractors we will use again as the need arises. But beside the real estate savvy and knowledge, they were great fun and kept their cool when we threw a couple of wild cards at them. Dan and I give them five stars based on the trust we built in partnership with Crystal and Brenton, the experience they brought, and the “make it happen” attitude they displayed time and again when it mattered most.

"I recently worked with The Joslin Team on selling and buying my home in Rancho Carrillo and I couldn't be happier with the experience.

" "Crystal and Brenton were so great to work with! We moved from out of the area, and they showed us more houses than we could count, trying to find the one that was right for us. They were so patient and never got frustrated with us and really got to know what we were looking for. They were always willing to show us more houses that would fit our needs and wants. We didn’t want to rush into purchasing the wrong house and we were running out of time to find housing due to a job relocation, so we ended up renting while getting to know th...

They were so patient and never got frustrated with us and really got to know what we were looking for. They were always willing to show us more houses that would fit our needs and wants. We didn’t want to rush into purchasing the wrong house and we were running out of time to find housing due to a job relocation, so we ended up renting while getting to know the area more. Crystal continued to send us monthly market updates, for when we were ready. Frustrated with how much houses were selling for over listing price, we decided to get on a few wait lists to build a new home. To our surprise, we were able secure a new build home. Crystal tirelessly reviewed our lengthy build contract in a tight timeline and pointed out areas needing closer review. We had a few bumps in the building process, and Crystal quickly stepped in to advocate for us and communicate our concerns with the builder and sales office. Crystal arranged for a home inspection and she and Brenton accompanied us in our final walkthrough. The Joslin team were there for us every step of the way. We are thrilled to be in our new home and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to sell or buy a home." Jim and Dawn Milton, Purchased in San Marcos, CA "

"We recently had an extremely positive experience with the Joslin Team in the sale of our late father’s home in the San Elijo Hills area of San Marcos. Within a week of the estate sale the house was prepped and ready and was only on the market for two days when a handful of great offers came in. Crystal and Brenton listened to our family’s wishes as far as scheduling, and were very reasonable in the costs associated with fixing up the house and staging it. The house showed magnificently.

"Our experience with Crystal and Brenton was awesome! They are super-responsive, extremely knowledgeable and are also a really fun team to be around! Their ability to prep our home, get it to market in record time, and project-manage the whole process was outstanding and resulted in multiple amazing offers at our Rancho Carrillo Carlsbad home in the first weekend! We highly recommend them!"

"I could not recommend the Joslin Team more. They helped us with the entire sale process after the passing of our father. They helped with estate sale, repairs, inspections and all the details to get the property sold for over asking with multiple bids. We aren't local to Rancho Carrillo or Carlsbad and were worried about the task at hand to manage the sale of a house. Crystal got things done. She listened, knows the market and was phenomenal at keeping us up to date and communicating. Thank you Joslin Team!!"

"Crystal and Brenton are kind, patient, professional, hard working, caring and detail oriented! My partner and I are very particular, so we wanted a very specific type of home with a specific floorplan. As such, our dream home was not easy to find, especially with the current state of the real estate market, the pandemic, and uncertainty of the economy. But with Crystal and Brenton's help, we successfully navigated through all of that, and more! Thank you both for staying with us during our long home-buying process! Our home is a new bu...

"Crystal and Brenton are kind, patient, professional, hard working, caring and detail oriented! My partner and I are very particular, so we wanted a very specific type of home with a specific floorplan. As such, our dream home was not easy to find, especially with the current state of the real estate market, the pandemic, and uncertainty of the economy. But with Crystal and Brenton's help, we successfully navigated through all of that, and more! Thank you both for staying with us during our long home-buying process! Our home is a new build, so that came with its own challenges, complexities, and of course, rewards. They were incredibly helpful in being with us every step of the process, especially in dealing with the builder. We are so thankful for them because they fully looked-out for us and our interests! The lender that Crystal recommended was also an excellent fit for us! We got a professional experience coupled with care and efficiency from the entire lending team. In addition, their lead team member often made us laugh! That was so helpful because home-buying is no visit to the spa! Lol! Having lived in Los Angeles almost my entire life, my client/customer experience with Crystal and Brenton is something you would see in Beverly Hills, Malibu or Studio City, but of course with their expert knowledge and long experience working in San Diego County, particularly North County. What also makes them special is Brenton's eye for structural detail. He used that to point out pertinent features of every home we toured. That was so helpful! Moreover, Brenton happens to be a professional floor installer. We used his services to select and install beautiful hardwood floors, tiles and carpet. His work is amazing! I highly recommend him. We got lucky that Brenton was part of our team because we could not find the right style of flooring from the builder. Having Brenton meant saving us time from having to interview and research floor installers. It also saved us time from having to visit the builder's design center, again. At that point in our process, saving time was so important because we were nearing our busy work season, and therefore would not have much time for more house-related projects/decisions. Lastly, what I like about Crystal and Brenton is their positive attitude, openness to our ideas, and eye towards our goal. Also, we got special treats and gifts to celebrate each important milestone in the home buying process! Thank you Crystal and Brenton!"
