This is our third home transaction with Dean over the past 15 years. He’s been instrumental in preparing our house for sale, finding a property for us to purchase, and negotiating the best terms for both. Dean has deep market knowledge and is well networked with agents, contractors and financial resources. I would highly recommend Dean’s service and representation on real estate matters.
Seriously, Dean is amazingly competent and successful. He has consistently helped us get the highest prices in the neighborhood for sales of six homes over the decades and he has helped us win deals at great prices for seven purchases. Dean is clearly more interested in our success than his own, but because he is such a fantastic realtor, he is one of the most successful in Orange County. I really can’t say enough about him. Dean has become a great friend over the years and a person we fully trust. No other realtor even comes close to Dean.
We have used Compass and Dean/his team specifically for 3 transactions (an 4th is pending) and introduced them to a 5th which was executed. Dean has been very methodical with well thought out strategies and approaches to both buying and selling. He uses data and his extensive professional and personal experience to support his conclusions. He is easy to communicate with and very responsive. Did a stellar job on the price negotiation especially when we ran into a bit of roadblock. We appreciated the team approach as well vs being a one man show. Support staff that assisted and stepped in that were knowledgeable and provided value-added input regarding, design, valuation, and strategy. One point we valued in addition to all the work on the actual transactions is the introduction to vendors (designer, handyman, architect, GC, landscaper, stone/tile, etc) that he has first hand experience with and knows their quality, pricing, and what they can and cannot deliver. That saves us an incredible amount of time rather than vetting ourselves. We highly recommend Dean for both buying and selling properties in and around CDM.
Being able to sell a property in a market that has hit a big bump has been a surprise. Dean Leuck and his expertise; his contacts and his understanding of sales was a game changer. Selling from out of State became no problem. I can recommend him highly.
It’s rare to come across a more professional and knowledgeable real estate agent than Dean. Buying high-end homes that meet all your criteria can be a challenging process, but Dean made it seem easy, helping us secure our dream home in Coastal Orange County. This is the second time in the past eight years that we have relied on Dean’s expertise, and once again, he exceeded our expectations. We couldn’t be happier with the outcome and highly recommend his services.
Dean and his entire team are first rate! They marketed our property by performing a thorough market analysis, producing extraordinary photos, videos and aerial shots and quickly placing the listing online. They were available and responsive every step of the way throughout the sales process. Their efforts resulted in the generation of multiple offers within a week. The house ultimately sold for over asking price. Dean and his team represent the best of how a real estate transaction should be experienced! We highly recommend engaging this team! They are truly professional grade!
Dean and his team have helped us buy and sell multiple homes now. They make the process so easy from start to finish. Great strategy and communication along the way as well.
After 12 years in Seattle, my wife and I finally decided to relocate to her hometown of Newport Beach, CA. Our agent in Seattle is very prominent in the Pacific Northwest, and she hand-picked Dean Lueck to be our agent down here in Newport Beach. It's easy to see why Dean was singled-out as the best agent. He works tirelessly and generously for his clients. He is an excellent communicator and quickly understands the preferences and needs of his clients. Dean's professionalism is impeccable; he is an expert in all aspects of real estate, from the marketing, financing, economic, psychological, aesthetic, and environmental dimensions. Dean is clearly a respected leader in the field down here. He has so many years of experience that he has seen the market go through all the changes over the past. When we go to visit homes with Dean, all the other agents know him and greet him. If you are lucky enough to have Dean as your agent, you will be very happy with the results.
It was a pleasure working with Dean. He is extremely knowledgeable about the real estate industry as well as professional and friendly. Dean went above and beyond to help us with the entire purchase of looking for a home to finally buying. I would recommend Dean to anyone wanting to buy and we will definitely use him again in the future.
When it comes to selling your home in Newport Coast it just doesn’t get any better than having Dean and his team handle the job. His knowledge of this market, and his multitude of successful transactions made it an easy choice for us to ask Dean to help with the sale of our home. Beyond his extensive transaction history, he was a master at recommending the things we should and shouldn’t do to show our house in its most favorable light. He even helped us procure the best contractors to make the recommended repairs, at minimal out of pocket cost to us. The result was the sale of our house at above the asking price. Again, it just doesn’t get any better than this.
