About Leslie

I work with homeowners on how to maximize their property value and look for investment opportunities. As a seasoned agent since 2005, my primary focus is my clients. As an expert in communication and negotiation, I support my clients in every step of the process to help them find the property of their dreams. In fact, I make sure my clients are fully informed throughout the selling or buying process from start to finish, by listening to my client's wants, needs, and concerns. As an advocate for my clients, I strive to ensure that their home buying or home selling process is as smooth and as stress-free as possible. This is why communication is "key." My clients feel they can reach out to me with any concerns or questions since they know I will be there for them. I am available to support you every step of the way.

Broad professional guidance from negotiating, knowledge of financing to expertise on escrow

We have known Leslie for many years now and during this time we went out looking off and on to look, taking some breaks for a couple of years or so at a time. Over the years, she never lost her patience with us, taking us to see literally over a hundred homes, never giving up on us. We must have been some of her most difficult clients, but during this long haul, she never gave up on us. She was there to show us countless of properties for long hours, always with the most wonderful attitude and reassuring positivity that we would find our dream home. Her reliability and positivity was catchy too that we would find a home. She quickly became a friend, giving us the inspiration and hope we would soon need. This summer 2021, with that same glimmer in her eye like she had nine years ago, and with her candid relentless persistence, we set out again but found ourselves in a pandemic with absolutely nothing affordable on the market, but that didn't stop her. From diligence, persistence and her good-natured approach, it was no surprise she found a home we absolutely loved. Thinking back on it, our experience in looking for a home, what first comes to mind was how fun she made it, how she made house searching an enjoyable experience. We'll always remember her warm-lovingly approach without pressure as she turned home buying into a exciting and fun experience. We highly recommend Leslie as a realtor. She is a trooper and will always be there for you until the end. She is very agreeable and flexible with time and actually made it fun with her great personality and good advice from many years of experience as a realtor. Her broad professional guidance from negotiating, knowledge of financing to her expertise on the escrow process made the purchase seamless and stress-free. For us, she showed us how to turn house buying from a nearly hopeless experience into a positive, most enjoyable one.

Leslie Cruz is Awesome!

We set out to purchase a home in San Diego County while still living in Los Angeles. Leslie Cruz agreed to work with us in finding our ideal place. We searched in various areas of Central San Diego County and never quite finding the right place. Leslie remained patient always listening to what we were looking for. Initially we asked for a turnkey place but rapid price increases were making that option less and less possible. In listening to us, Leslie showed us a place that had just come on the market; a fixer upper. Not what we were looking for...or so we thought. In the end, we fell in love with the potential of the property and ended up purchasing it at a reasonable price. Reasonable for SD home prices. In the end, a difficult process was made easier with Leslie Cruz by our side and we are grateful for all of the help she offered. We appreciate the patience she had, even when showing us place on Sunday afternoons. Thank you Leslie!

Amazing!!!

Leslie was amazing to work with and helping us find our first home. She was on top of sending us listings and giving us her time to show us many houses. She is very reliable, trustworthy, professional, kind, helpful, is there to answer any questions you may have, and more! Wouldn't recommend anyone else.

Great agent, cool and calm in a Covid crazy market

Needed to downsize and purchase smaller living space for parents, and sell their home too. Met with heavy competition in the market. And while it was indeed frustrating at times Leslie was able to remain cool and calm and we were able to purchase a place better than expected. For the sale of the home, Leslie had great marketing skill and suggestions. Sold that weekend and higher price than expected. Thank you Leslie!

Exceeded our expectations!

Leslie was amazing! She was very good about caring for every detail, followed through immediately and respected all of our requests. Our entire experience was wonderful. Leslie made the whole journey easy and we could feel confident everything would be properly cared for by her and her team! We are looking forward to one day using her again.

Centrally located, highly upgraded condo

Leslie Cruz was our realtor for the sale of our condo and the purchase of our property. If you want someone who will work their butt off for you, then Leslie is your realtor. Above all, she is always honest and will always put her clients needs and wants over making a sale. She is sincere, professional and knows her stuff. She is one of the hardest working people I know and will do everything in her power to sell your home or make your dreams come true in buying a new home or like us our dream property. PS- she knows land which is sooo so important if you are looking. There are so many things that typical homeowners aren’t aware of in purchasing land. If you want a Realtor you can trust and have your back, choose Leslie.
