Seller of 7102 Primrose Way, Carlsbad
We couldn’t have asked for a better realtor to guide us through the sale of our home. From the beginning, his knowledge of the local market was spot on. He developed the right strategy, positioned the house well, and we only needed one weekend of showings before receiving multiple offers—including the buyers who ultimately purchased our home. What impressed me even more, though, was his communication and ability to navigate a very difficult and complicated situation. He has an incredible ability to read people, communicate effectively, and know when to push, when to give someone space, and how to keep everyone moving toward the same goal. There were moments during the process when I felt completely powerless to keep things on track, and he somehow always knew how to step in, lower the temperature, and move us forward. He also took a genuine personal interest in what we were going through. He wasn't simply trying to close a transaction—he cared about getting us through the process and was a calm, steady, guiding voice during a turbulent time. Selling a home is stressful under the best of circumstances. Our situation was anything but ordinary, and I honestly don't know how smoothly we would have gotten through it without him. His market knowledge was excellent, but his communication skills, patience, professionalism, and ability to manage people are what truly set him apart. I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for a realtor, especially if you want someone who understands that successfully selling a home is about much more than just knowing the market.

I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Matthew. From beginning to end, he was absolutely exceptional and exceeded every expectation I had for a real estate agent. The house I was buying was a complicated transaction with a number of issues that came up along the way, and this is where Matthew really showed his value. Instead of simply identifying problems and leaving me to figure them out, he immediately went into action. He tapped into his network of trusted plumbers, termite professionals, inspectors, contractors, and other specialists to get me answers quickly and help me understand what needed to be addressed. He coordinated with everyone, followed up, and made an overwhelming process feel manageable. Matthew was equally incredible on the financial side. He worked closely with my mortgage broker to explore creative financing options and help structure the deal in a way that worked for me. He collaborated with everyone involved and stayed engaged in every aspect of the transaction. What impressed me most was that Matthew never treated anything as “not his job.” He took ownership, made calls, found solutions, and kept things moving. There were many times throughout the process when I thought, “I honestly don’t know how I would be navigating this without him.” He was knowledgeable, responsive, proactive, patient, and an incredible advocate for me from start to finish. I always felt that my best interests came first. I ended up with a home I absolutely love, and I genuinely believe the experience would have been dramatically more difficult without Matthew. I would recommend him to my closest friends and family without hesitation. Five stars truly doesn’t feel like enough. If you want an agent who is experienced, connected, resourceful, and completely committed to his clients, Matthew is the one.

Matt is a professional realtor and so helpful with explaining the process and what expectations will happen. Every step of the way he kept the sale rolling. Estate sale, cleaning up ,open house, flooring and painting scheduled, inspections and getting that work completed and the list goes on and on. He is very knowledgeable about what he is doing. Helpful at explaining. Passionate with getting the job done in a timely manner. Communication is another highlight. I was out of the area and Matt kept me in the loop. Even took photos of work getting done. ABOVE AND BEYOND 120%. Thank you MATT for all your professional experience in getting this home sold!!!

Bryan helped my husband and I navigate our first home purchase and we greatly appreciated and benefited from his expertise, guidance, clear and incredibly fast communications, and especially his patience with all of our questions. He was always available and helped us every step of the way, including with vendor recommendations after closing. We highly recommend working with Bryan and will be recommending him to our family & friends when they are ready to buy or sell.
Seller of 2151 Island Shore Way, San Marcos
Bryan and the Devore Realty team made us feel supported every step of the way while selling our home and purchasing a new one at the same time. Bryan’s expertise, organization, and thoughtful guidance kept every moving part on track and made the entire experience feel seamless from start to finish. Bryan and his team were exceptionally attentive, responsive, and communicative throughout the entire process. They anticipated our needs, provided clear direction, and always made us feel that our best interests were their top priority. Their patience, encouragement, and steady support gave us confidence during what could have been a very stressful transition. We couldn’t be happier with the outcome or more grateful for the care Bryan showed us throughout the journey. We highly recommend Bryan Devore and the Devore Realty team to anyone buying or selling a home. If you want knowledgeable, organized, and genuinely caring guidance, they are an excellent choice.
Buyer of 902 Royal Tern Way, Oceanside
Working with Bryan was a genuinely positive experience from start to finish. Even though our time working together was relatively brief, it was clear right away that we were in good hands. Bryan communicated clearly and promptly at every step, making sure we always knew what was happening and what to expect next — there was never a moment where we felt left in the dark or unsure of the process. What really stood out was their deep knowledge of the 55+ housing market. It's clear this isn't just a side specialty for them — they understand the unique needs, priorities, and pace that come with this stage of life, and they brought genuine expertise and thoughtfulness to every conversation. That kind of specialized insight makes a real difference when you're navigating a market that doesn't always get the attention it deserves. Overall, Bryan is professional, reliable, and easy to work with. Even in a limited engagement, their solid communication and market knowledge left a strong impression, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for an agent who truly understands the 55+ community.

Buyer of 310 Chinquapin Avenue, Carlsbad
From the very first moment, Anna was careful to deeply understand our needs, from size, location to budget and desired design. Anna developed a list of potential candidates that gave us a great understanding of the market and the opportunities to fulfill our dream home. She set aside all the time we needed to visit the different options. As we were deciding on the house, she made sure we understood all the details, from neighborhood to nearby amenities from the shortlist candidates, helping us make a final decision. Once we moved forward, Anna made sure the process from offer to closing went smoothly. Anna has kept in contact to make sure everything is ready for our move in. In every step Anna went beyond to make sure we found our new home, we cannot thank her enough!

Shannon was on top of all the transactions between buyers agent, escrow and us the sellers. Pushed escrow to fund our proceeds asap when escrow wasn't seeing the urgency. She was also a great mentor to our son who was learning on the transaction.
