Dave guided us through all the stages of our successful home purchase. He helped us identify potential properties in an ultra-competitive market, conducted a video tour for us, negotiated a non-cash offer that was accepted, and closed in a timely manner.
Excellent service , very knowledgeable, would recommend to others ,friendly no pressure.
Dave is truly experienced and guided us through the hurdles of the transaction with ease. This market is not amateur hour and he truly pulled through to get us our home even through the setbacks as a pro!!! We would recommend Dave for anyone that is wanting to buy or sell any real estate. He was in top of every deadline and has a team to make sure all docs are in on time. He definitely sees ahead of the deal to assist with any foreseeable hiccups. We appreciate him being sensible and understanding with us. His lender recommendation is like non other with speed and competitiveness which helps him excel on closing to the best of his ability!
My wife and I had an absolutely amazing experience with Dave. We moved to California, unexpectedly, after my job relocated. Having little knowledge of the area, we really lucked out with Dave. He was knowledge about the region, the towns, individual neighborhoods, and the homes he showed us. I could tell Dave was ready to discuss, in detail, the home he showed us. No matter home many homes we asked to see, Dave never rushed us. He took the time to show homes and discuss thoughts we had about them. I plan to recommend Dave to everyone I can.
Dave is the best! He is knowledgeable, responsive, reliable and so enthusiastic! Even in a crazy market, he went above and beyond to take care of us, put in offers in quick deadlines, advise us and make us feel as comfortable with the process as possible. He was a pleasure to work with and there’s no doubt we’d use him again!
had the best experience with Dave! He made buying my first home an incredibly smooth and stress-free process. Dave was always there if I had any questions and I felt very reassured that I was in great hands throughout the entire experience. Dave treats everybody like family and I can't imagine going through anyone else. Dave really is your guy! Two thumbs way up!!!
I would definitely tell that Dave is super clear and to thepoint from beginning to end. Communication is key during time sensitivesituations and Dave is the perfect guy during those times. Every conversationand meeting with him was extremely helpful and just made us feel that our timewas well invested with him. THANKS DAVE!
Working with Dave and his team was amazing! We looked for the right luxury beach house in Del Mar that could also work as an investment property for years and throughout the process he was patient, willing to put in the work and always quick to respond and provide resources for work, assessment and truly anything we needed when we needed it to ensure success. I've been in the real estate industry for over 10 years and I can say full heartedly that Dave puts other agents to shame. What you want in an agent is: market/contract knowledge, experience, integrity, financial literacy, resourcefulness and, ideally, someone you enjoy going on the journey with as there are inevitable challenges in this game...Dave and his team just hit it out of the park on all of these characteristics and more. I can't emphasize enough what a Rock Star Dave and his team are and going with anyone else for your real estate needs whether it be purchase or property management would be a grave mistake!
Dave is a great realtor. Knowledgeable, friendly and professional. I would recommend him to anyone.
Dave was as good as it gets, super responsive and knowledge,would highly recommend to anybody looking for an agent!
Dave is one of the best agents in town! He treats all of his clients like they are family! Highly recommended!
Humble, energetic, honest and friendly, Dave is simply someone I inspire to be as a person.
Dave was so easy to work with and every step of the way was there to explain things and calm my nerves as a first time home buyer. I highly recommend Dave Kaushagen for all of your real estate needs.
As a first-time home buyer, I had no idea what I was in for, but Dave did. He took the time to explain everything to me, step-by-step. If I had questions or concerns, he was always quick to respond. He's very knowledgeable, honest, and he genuinely cares about his clients. He can be a real "Pitbull", if need be. He doesn't allow others to take advantage of his clients. I trust Dave tremendously. In fact, when my fiancé and I plan to expand our home, he'll be the one we call.
Dave Kaushagen gave us a sense of confidence that we could reach our goals right from the start. As we made the journey (of selling our house) we encountered some unexpected bumps in the road. Dave's knowledge, expertise, and compassion made a big difference! We made it. Sold the house and moved across country.... now settled into our new life.... with a new friend ..... Dave Kaushagen.
Dave helped me sell my home. He was very professional and he communicated effectively throughout the process. Dave is a hard worker and he seems to know the market really well.
We were actually referred to Dave by our 1st lender. He was our 3rd realtor and needless to say the 3rd time was the charm. He is the most professional, down to earth realtor that I have met and think that he is the best out there. He helped in our search for the perfect house and would not let us settle in any way for anything that we did not love. We looked at over 30 houses in the course about 4 months and even when he couldn't make it to the house due to prior engagements, he sent an associate to give us access.
Once we found our love it homes, he was very fast usually having the bid put in within a few hours. He also sent out mailers on our behalf to see if anyone else was selling homes similar to the ones we were bidding on. Once we found our love it home, he actually got us a great deal with his negotiating skills and got us into our home with very little out of pocket on our part. He made the search and bidding process so easy on our part, as we had heard the horror stories from friends about their search.
I cannot express how happy we are in our home thanks to Dave and he actually came to our house warming party that we invited him to, so he keeps in contact well after his job is done. We have been in our home for almost 5 months now and still check in with him with questions and he has never turned us away.
Great Person and even better Realtor. .
We received Dave's business postcard all the way in Japan when we were stationed there. We usually don't respond to business advertisements, but for some reason, we took a chance and called Dave. We explained our situation to him, noting our concerns being miles away from our condo in San Diego. Dave was very professional from the get-go and provided us information that solidified our decision to sell. He took care of us every step of the way, from advertising, staging and eventually, selling the place. It didn't take long either. He even assisted us with coordinating with the tenants that was renting the place at that time, as well as the with the property manager. We couldn't ask for a better realtor. He has our highest recommendation. And we did, to our friend who also had a property in San Diego but was living out-of-state due to military obligations. In no time, he also sold her place. Dave was very helpful, even after closing. He provided us advice when we were looking for another house in Washington (even though he was no longer our realtor). Our experience was not the same and we wished the whole time that he was still our realtor. Dave is timely, efficient and again, very professional. If you want great service, hire Dave Kaushagen. Thank you so much Dave.
Dave offered excellent advice for setting up our home for our sale. We followed his advice to the letter and sold our house for top dollar in three days! But the most important item is the trust we felt while working with Dave. He gets my recommendation for anyone with thoughts of selling their home.
Dave was instrumental in our process to purchase a new home for our family. In a sellers market, with minimal inventory, and homes being subjected to bidding wars among buyers, Dave's drive to help us get into our dream home was the key factor for our success.
He did not sit around and wait for us to tell him what homes we wanted to see, instead he was extremely proactive, and called us the moment something hit the market that he thought we'd have interest in. He put together outbound marketing campaigns to canvas the neighborhoods we told him that we were interested in. If we couldn't view a home right away, he dropped everything, went to the home, took video of it and posted it for us so that we could get a look ASAP.
Completely unlike other agents we had spoken with in the past, Dave encouraged us to pass on homes that just didn't feel right to us. Despite our frustrations in the market lacking homes for sale and wanting to jump at homes and considering settling for something that wasn't ideal for us, he kept us positive, that the right home would come, kept telling us to not settle or lower our expectations just to get into a home.
Dave did not want to just make a sale, he TRULY wanted to help us find the right home, one that would make us happy and feel like home. He succeeded. I don't care how much someone tells me they like their current agent, I will always insist that they at least have a conversation with Dave to see the difference in his style and approach to not make a sale, but earn a clients trust and business.
