Yong Choi is the BEST realtor to work with!

Yong Choi has represented us on three real estate transactions. We recently completed the third transaction in Oct 2026, which went flawlessly due to Yong’s real estate knowledge, understanding of the mortgage process, his work ethic and ability to negotiate an excellent contract. Yong’s professional demeanor is excellent. He is polite, shows up on time, and is always prepared. Yong has impeccable communication skills. He listens carefully to what our real estate goals are, and sets up showings of properties that meet those goals. He responds immediately to phone calls, texts and emails, and handles each question or request very quickly. His ability to explain complex answers in a way we can understand is very helpful. Yong is always very friendly and has a positive attitude at all times. During negotiations, he was able to communicate is such a positive manner, and made us feel confident about the process. It is clear that Yong enjoys his work as a realtor, and he is an absolute joy to work with. We highly recommend Yong Choi, and we will use him again on any future real estate transactions!

Yong is the full service broker.

I knew when I first met Yong that he was someone that I'd like to work with. He has a wealth of knowledge and shares that information in a very understanding way. Yong is very supportive through the process and always responds in a timely manner. You won't find anyone better to journey through the sales process with.

Excellent real estate agent! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We cannot thank Yong Choi enough for his incredible work. Yong is incredibly detail oriented and executed the entire transaction with the highest levels of competency and professionalism. Yong and Tony listed and sold our Scottsdale home in only 9 days! Their marketing was top-tier, their advice was spot-on, and their communication kept us at ease the entire time. They made what is usually a complicated process feel completely effortless. We highly recommend Yong Choi to anyone looking for a superb real estate agent!

Best realtor experience in 50 years of buying and selling my homes!

Yong Choi of Sotheby’s Realty was my first choice out of several recommended realtors. Fortune smiled the day I met this gracious, knowledgeable and affable gentleman. Mr. Choi arrived prepared with a printed folio of selling area stastistics, market comps, end-of-sale potential return and all expected costs at escrow close. I learned more about my neighborhood in this meet than was gleaned during several years of ownership. Yong Choi exceeded every expectation during the sales process and brought home a clean offer and one-week closing. Thank you, Yong, for your engaging professionalism, verity. You gave me the win I needed.

Smoothest transaction we've ever had!

It was such a pleasure working with Yong. His knowledge of the market, the buying process, local vendors and trades made the entire transaction so much less stressful. He is super communicative and if he didn't have the answer immediately he found it and got back to us right away. Yong's knowledge and professionalism made a very complex transaction quite simple. We highly recommend Yong Choi to anyone looking for a great real estate experience!
