I can’t thank Steve and his team enough. My property had many challenges before the sale. I felt overwhelmed by the projects needed to get the property ready for sale. Steve and the team handled donations, repairs, updating and staging. Due to the professional efforts by all team members, my property sold well above asking price. I am grateful to the team for all of their efforts. I highly recommend them and will list my next property when the time is right.

There are realtors who help you buy or sell a house, and then there’s Steve, who becomes your advocate, strategist, problem-solver, sounding board, and steady presence through one of the biggest transitions of your life. Steve simultaneously helped us sell our home AND purchase our new home. Two major transactions, with all the negotiations, timing, logistics, uncertainty, and emotion that came with them. It was double the transaction and, at times, double the stress. I genuinely don’t know how we would have navigated it without him. Steve’s experience was evident at every stage. He knew when to push, when to be patient, what deserved our attention, and what didn’t need to become another source of worry. His communication was exceptional. We always knew what was happening, what came next, and that someone was looking out for us. Just as impressive was his emotional intelligence. Steve never treated our concerns as inconveniences or made us feel like “just another transaction.” He listened, understood when we needed information or perspective, and remained calm when things became stressful. He never added to the chaos- he helped remove it. And then there's his incredible team. Every person we worked with was instrumental in bringing our two transactions together successfully. Steve has clearly surrounded himself with people who share his standards for professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine client care. By the time we sold our house and had the keys to our new home, calling Steve simply our “realtor” no longer felt adequate. He was our advocate, our voice of reason, and someone we trusted completely. What truly sets Steve apart is something you can’t teach: he knows how to take care of people. Steve and his team helped us close one chapter of our lives and begin another. We couldn’t recommend them more highly. Five stars simply aren’t enough.

Savvy negotiation skills truly paid off on this one. Excellent job all around.

We have worked with Steve Ploetz' team on two different occasions and could not be happier with the selling process from start to finish. Steve demonstrated excellent listening skills to truly understand our goals overall and built a strategy to provide an outcome even better than we had hoped for. Steve and Eli are excellent in communicating throughout the process and back each other up every step of the way. Communication was always clear, next steps were always identified, and progress was swift. We highly recommend Ploetz Team and will be forever grateful for their guidance and support.

Steve and his team are very professional, responsive, and straightforward. They know how to get the deal done and help me through the entire process. The only real estate agent I’d use! I would not only call Steve my real estate agent I would call my friend.

Was exactly what I needed, his confidence was awesome, and he sold my condo in two weeks.

We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Steve and his team. He took the time to help us develop the best strategy for selling our home while working through a few non negotiables we had regarding timeline and sale price. Steve was transparent throughout the entire process from deciding when to list, coordinating open houses and showings, to navigating counteroffers. At no point did we feel out of the loop or uncertain about his guidance. Our home received multiple offers within the first week, and Steve was even able to negotiate an additional two weeks for us to stay in the home after closing at no extra cost. We highly recommend Steve and his team for any real estate needs.

My wife and I are very happy with Steve Ploetz and his team. They were very supportive and engaging during the process of selling our home. He and his team helped us navigate multiple offers, counter offers and inspection reports. We would definitely refer him to our family and friends and will use him and his team the next time when we buy a house.

Steve was always available and helpful. He was very professional and secured a great price for our home. Definitely recommend!

Excellent market knowledge Thorough communication Savvy negotiating Absolute recommend

We have had Steve as our agent for many sales and purchases. He is a professional! Outstanding in communication and has the knowledge of the Real Estate Market continually. It is refreshing to see a real estate agent with integrity and honesty!

The absolute best. Words can’t describe how this team and Steve helps the buyer or seller through a market like San Diego and keeps you on track for the best possible chance to find the dream home you have always wanted or the next chip to help u obtain a lifelong dream of owning a home. I personally would not own a home if it wasn’t for all the advice and guidance from Steve and his team. The absolute best in the business.
