  • What Jill's Clients Say

    Doug and his team went above and beyond. He responded back to me every time I had a question or concern. We knew he was number one and when my husband and I walked into his office we knew he was our guy!!! Could not be happier with our outcome and if we ever do business again in California we will walk into his office and have him represent us again.
    ~ Nicole & Jim G.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    My wife and I have bought and sold six residences in the past years. Doug Echelberger and his staff were the most professional, responsive, and accommodating than any realtor we encountered during all those transactions. We highly recommend them.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    Oliver was a pleasure to work with. He is very knowledgeable about the real estate market, and made the entire process run smoothly. He was always quick to respond to any question we might have, no matter how small. He helped us to get the most for our home and was realistic in the negotiations.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    There are realtors and then there are realtors. Doug and his team are on another level. I began speaking with Doug 3 years ago and kept in touch in the event we wanted to make a change. We had a major life change and selling our home was key. Selling a home can be stressful and Doug kept stress at a minimum because he had a solid strategy - and that was not just me telling him what I want for him to list our home on the MLS. From pre-listing a...

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    Doug Echelberger, and his team, are wonderful! When we recently decided to sell our home, there was no question who we would choose to do it for us!! NO QUESTION! The incredible professionalism, knowledge and guidance from Doug and his team was invaluable! They made, what is usually a very stressful event and process, effortless. I was surprisingly shocked at the amount of clear and concise communication from everyone! There was never a questi...
    ~ Lenore G.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    Doug and his team are exceptional. They exceeded every expectation that I had. Communicative - check, professional - check, helpful - double check, responsive - triple check. Most importantly, though, they listened to me when I described what I wanted in a house and found the exact right one for me. I could not be happier with this group of outstanding real estate professionals.
    ~ Lisa T.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    Doug & Ken Ross were wonderful to work with in the sale of our home. We were living outside of the area when the home was on the market, and they coordinated maintenance and repairs. The communication was frequent, courteous and honest. They are trusted advisors and we wouldn't hesitate to work with them again on a future home purchase / sale.
    ~ Patrick R.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    I did not know Doug or any of his associates prior to listings our home with him, My wife is ill and he and his associates handled everything without her having to leave her bed. I would not hesitate to use him or recommend him to anyone.
    ~ Willis W.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    Exceptional knowledge of neighborhood, market, and provided expert advice on what repairs were/were not needed. Agent responsive immediately to phone calls, emails, and texts.
    ~ Bonny D.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    Doug did a great job generating multiple offers on our home and getting us to the price we wanted. And escrow went seamless and hands off for us. Thanks Doug!
    ~ Adam S.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    We have used Doug and his team to sell 2 homes and purchase 2 homes over last few years. He is the best in the industry hands down. He’s is incredibly knowledgeable and walks you through the entire process and never misses a detail. We cannot say enough wonderful things about him and his excellent team!
    ~ Monica C.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    Doug recently sold our condo, and we couldn't have been happier with him and his team's professionalism and level of service. Doug always kept us informed throughout the process and calmly provided us suggestions during key decision points. I highly recommend you contact Doug if you are looking to either buy or sell your home.
    ~ Glen and Jonda H.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    Doug and his competent team recently sold my condo in San Clemente. I was the recipient of exceptional service and competency. It was not really until I was faced with the many decisions required as a seller that my trust for Doug and his team became evident to me. I found myself not worrying about anything at all! This is not typical of my nature. Doug and his team made me feel that there was no need to worry due to their competence and proac...
    ~ Alison M.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    We chose Doug and his team because of the reputation they have from both buyers and sellers in our area. It was very important to us to work with a team that had a great knowledge of the market as well as a reputation for being at the top of their game, they were both. We did not want a broker to come in and give us an unrealistic selling price to entice us to list with them, but an honest appraisal of what our house should sell for and a best...
    ~ Ken and Wendy S.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    Doug Echelberger is the definition of a trusted realtor. Doug and his associates handled the sale of our former home and the purchase of our new home with remarkable professionalism, especially considering that most of it was done with my wife and I confined thousands of miles away on the east coast. Doug and his team assisted with, arranged for and even supervised most of the tasks associated with preparing, repairing, showing and eventually ...
    ~ Kevin and Maureen D.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    This was the most painless, easiest experience ever. He and his team kept me informed throughout the process and delivered as promised and even closed 1 day earlier. He coordinated minor repairs and re-piping the property to get the sale done which was huge since I work full time and was not in the area. There was no drama, fuss, or last minute crisis which I had half expected based on past experiences with selling homes. I still can't believe...
    ~ John L.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    We highly recommend Doug and his team. He’s smart, responsive, detailed, professional and listens to his clients before setting a price strategy. He has high standards and it comes through in the quality of his team, including the photography and his process all the way through to escrow close. We were in dire straits when hiring Doug for the second time (he sold a previous home in San Clemente and was not in the Irvine market). Our Irvine ag...
    ~ Kurt L.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    Doug is a long-time expert on San Clemente real estate and it shows. He and his team are very knowledgeable and responsive. Doug knows the local market, the trends and all the details to professionally guide one through a successful transaction. This was all evident and part of our great experience working with him and his team. He more than successfully met my expectation of an agent that can take on all the responsibilities possible during t...
    ~ Robert and Lynette S.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    My husband Larry & I had an incredible experience with Adam Trejo. He was very responsive, paid attention to detail, he was always on time, completely professional and truly cared about our needs and our situation. We can’t thank Adam enough for everything he did for us and for all the time he spent with us. He’s the best and we highly recommend him if you are looking to buy, sell or lease.
    ~ Kelley and Larry S.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    Doug and his team were lights out from beginning to end, and absolutely crushed it getting us the best possible price for our home. Honest, transparent, and punctual.
    ~ Taylor and Ashley T.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    We have bought/sold over 8 homes throughout the country and have to say that Doug and his team far exceeded any other realtor in every category. One word sums up our experience from start to finish - fantastic!
    ~ Mark and Patricia P.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    Doug and his team helped our family sell our home and purchase another home. Doug’s knowledge of the San Clemente market was second to none. He knew what properties were available as well as those coming onto the market. He quickly understood our needs and likes. He found us a new home quickly and had our old house under contract within a week. He supported us through the sale and purchase processes and answered all of our questions. He handle...
    ~ James and Heather D.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    Doug and his team went above and beyond our expectations! Not only did they sell our house quickly and above asking price, they extended their efforts to help us secure our new home. Doug personally reached out to our agent in Oregon as well as our lender. Very professional and a pleasure to work with.
    ~ Megan M.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    Working with Doug and his team was such a wonderful experience. They were very professional, detail-oriented and timely in response to my questions and emails. My condo sold very fast and therefore quick follow up and turnaround were very important in today's market. Because of his excellent team in marketing and presentation, my condo sold well above list price making my home one of the highest sold in its category. I am so grateful to Doug a...
    ~ Bonnie F.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    I would highly recommend Doug and his team. He has such a pleasant demeanor under any circumstances. He is very responsive and professional in his dealings. Nothing seems to frazzle him. He knows the market and never puts pressure on either party. He and his team were a real pleasure to work with on both our transactions. I would highly recommend him to anyone in the market.
    ~ Hazem A.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    This is the sixth home that I have purchased and sold in my lifetime. I must say that Doug and his team have far surpassed the level of service I have ever experienced with any of them. His team is a well-oiled machine. Communication from them was excellent! They were on top of the entire process. They answered our questions and took the worry out of the sale of our home. On a side note, I interviewed other agents' teams. They both commented t...
    ~ Sam B.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    I was sold on Doug when I made my first call to him. Just the vibe you get from talking to someone who comes across as sincere, knowledgable, and easy to work with. Well as a busy professional dentist who really has no free time. I trusted the sale of my rental to him with tenants still inhabiting the property and repairs needing to be made. I had expected the worst however, I am delighted to say that he and his team made the whole process sea...
    ~ John V.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    Doug Echelberger is known as the go-to realtor for properties in Talega and was our first choice for selling our home. He provided invaluable expertise and guided us through every step of the process. This included recommendations for updating and prepping our home for sale, selecting the right time to place the home on the market, negotiating with potential buyers, and obtaining a full-price offer. COVID-19 created a very tricky and trying pe...
    ~ Randy P.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    Doug and his team (special note to Adam Trejo) were excellent. They provided great advice and their advice really changed the marketability of our condo in San Clemente. This leads to the sale very quickly after changes were made. This specific property was first occupied by a tenant. Then it was vacant. Doug and his team managed both situations very well. Adam was always very nice and helpful, always responding to my various questions both du...
    ~ David A.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    Awesome experience! California went into lockdown from COVID19 literally the week we listed the house. I assumed that we're done for, but Doug got the home sold for a fair price without any drama or fuss; I still can't believe that it's done. I had originally planned on redoing a lot of stuff to get the home ready for sale but Doug suggested new paint, carpet, and deep cleaning only and I have to agree that the home looked almost new afterward...
    ~ John L.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    We are so very happy we chose Doug Echelberger and his team. I was worried because I was having medical issues and didn't think we were going to be able to handle selling our place. But everything was so smooth and we were always well informed via the portals and emails from them on all that was happening. It really couldn't have been a better experience, despite my illness. It's hard to believe it went as quickly and smoothly as it did. We ce...

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    My wife and I have used Doug and his team for seven transactions over the past ten years. I can say without hesitation that Doug has provided us with superior service in every aspect of the transaction; purchase or sale. He knows South County like the back of his hand and is respected by his peers like no other. He truly is a master of his profession and has put together a team that supports his clients completely. I can think of no one that I...
    ~ John C.

  • What Jill's Clients Say

    Doug and his team did a great job with the sale of my home in Talega. I felt the marketing was very good for the home. I was leaving due to a corporate relocation and there were many things that needed to be completed such as inspections and the team went above and beyond to support all of that while I was working in my new location. I have moved multiple times in my career and would put Doug and his team at the top of my list when it comes to...
