My agent was Joel Schneider and I would definitely recommend him and Whissle realty! I love my new home and Joel went above and beyond getting me into it!

I cannot express how much I would recommend Joel Schneider of Whissel Realty to anyone who is in the market to purchase a home.My husband and I met Joel at an open house. He was kind, easy going and most importantly for us, not pushy at all. He gave us our space to peruse the property at our own pace. We chatted a bit and he seemed genuinely interested in what our needs were and what we were looking for. After looking at several open houses on our own, we decided that we needed representation and felt really good about giving Joel a call to represent us in our journey to purchase a home. Funnily enough, he already had a list of homes ready that met our specifications when we called!Joel is both a golden retriever and a shark - and by that I mean he is probably the kindest person you will ever meet, yet absolutely formidable when it's necessary and the situation calls for it. As first time homebuyers, we had a lot of questions. Joel was very transparent and managed expectations very well throughout the whole process (even when he had less than stellar news to deliver). No question was too stupid or too much.His expert guidance and industry knowledge made the potentially tumultuous process of buying a house in the 2024 climate smoother than we had anticipated. He made sure we were empowered with all the knowledge we needed to move forward with purchasing our house and went to bat for us every single time. He was also super available and responsive - anything and everything we had a question about, he had an answer for.The office he works for also has a lot of great benefits - including a free moving truck not just on your moving day, but whenever you need to use it! This was a great touch and proved very useful several times for us.We felt listened to, cared for and ultimately, he pulled out all the stops to secure us our dream home. We truly can't imagine working with anyone else for this purchase, or for any of our future needs. Joel is truly a standout in his field and we are very lucky to have crossed paths with him. Working with him felt like we had the knowledge and know how of an industry professional on our side, yet at the same time working with a close friend who will truly stop at nothing to help you succeed. We cannot recommend him enough!

Joel Schneider is a kind, energetic, and personable individual who went above and beyond. He connected me with valuable resources both within and outside his office, even as I became increasingly stressed as the process ramped up, and even for matters outside his direct responsibility. For example, he helped me find someone to assess the health of the HOA in the community I was considering. For any concern in which he was not the expert, he had one in his pocket waiting and happy to help. And he did so quickly.

Joel's always prioritized my best interests as a buyer. He provided excellent recommendations for lenders and other professionals, ensuring I had a smooth and successful home-buying experience. For future home purchases, I will be hitting up Joel again without a doubt. I highly recommend him to anyone searching for a dedicated and knowledgeable real estate agent in the San Diego area.

Joel has been a fantastic partner, advisor and supporter through the process of selling our property.

Our circumstances included:
-the property being in Julian and as a co-trustee, me being on the East Coast
-Joel provided guidance on preparing the property for sale including some facelift to the interior and exterior
-Joel offered very helpful advisement in identifying a viable sales price
-Joel committing to his own sweat equity to the sale
-Joel consistently provided timely and regular communication that really helped us stay current on key issues, especially being geographically distant
-Even in the face of some minor obstacles, Joel kept an enthusiastic and optimistic attitude

I highly recommend Joel as a realtor and would readily work with him and Whissel again!

Joel did an absolutely amazing job with helping me find a home in San Diego!! He was extremely attenative to my situation and even went out of his way to accommodate my needs. He is super friendly and easy to get along with! He was able to get me a condominium that is in highly sought for area and was even able to negotiate a extremely great price for it. Joel and his team are hard working and extremely helpful. I definitely recommend choosing him for your realty needs.

Joel did an excellent job assisting us with the sale of our home. He helped make an emotional situation a seamless process. He handled everything professionallly and reliably. He was so responsive and helpful and truly helped us get what we wanted. He became a friend and business partner. I am so thankful for all of his and his team’s efforts. I highly recommend Joel and Whissel Reality Group.

Couldn’t have had a better San Diego home buying experience. Joel Schneider was always available for every minor question, inquiry, last minute house tour and rescheduled final walkthrough. His approach was both warm and knowledgeable and we never felt pressured or rushed. I guarantee that we would have paid more for a less-amazing house if we hadn’t went with him, and when the day comes to sell our home we will turn to him to get the most for it. Wish I could give more than 5 Stars!

Joel is a great guy! Professional to a tee, but really personable and took the time to get to know us and really got to know what we were looking for in our forever home!

I had a great experience with my agent Joel Schneider! He was always a phone call away and responded immediately to any concerns and question. I was moving to the San Diego area and he provided great knowledge of the area, upcoming developments, and future upside potential within the areas we were looking. The process was smooth and he listened to our concerns offering advice the entire way. I would recommend him to others as well as the Whissel realty team. In the end Joel helped me find and close on the perfect property and even helped me move in! Talk about full service start to finish!
