    • Kevin is an awesome realtor. He is very knowledgeable and knows what customer service is all about. This was our first home purchase and he was great at answering all of our questions. He was very patient and trustworthy. He also gave his honest opinion about all the properties we saw, he wasn't just trying to make a sale, he truly has your best interest in mind. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kevin to anyone. At the end of the day, he helped us get into our new home, which we love, and we couldn't be more thankful and happy.

      - Andrew Kim
    • If I can give this man more than 5 stars I totally would. Two years ago Kevin help me and my family find a place to lease because we were not ready to purchase our first home and fast forward to now Kevin did it again by helping us find a home that we truly love. It took us months to find "our home". It was not an easy task, but Kevin made it as smooth as he can for us. He didn't let us settle for any home. He made sure we were completely happy and satisfy. My husband had a lot of questions and concerns and Kevin not once did not answer them. He was prompt with his responses. It took us months to find our home. I was getting discourage and sad that we couldn't find a place, but Kevin reassured us that the one will come. No matter how fast or how long it will take us he will help us find it. He did not lied. Not only did he helped us find our home, he went above and beyond to negotiate with the seller to give us the best deal possible. I would say our month in escrow went more smoothly than I anticipated.Kevin will be our realtor for life!!! I highly recommend this man. He's very professional and honest. He knew exactly what I wanted in my home more than my husband. He is also good at giving advice on how to decorate your home. I love all his ideas. I am so grateful to have Kevin as our realtor. Without him I think my husband and I would be even more stress out. We are so bless to be able to work with Kevin. thank you so much for making this process a good experience for us and for helping us find our first home that we truly love. We will be looking forward to the next time when we have to upgrade our home to fit our growing family.

    • I found my realtor for life! As a first time home buyers (my wife and I), it can be quite a daunting experience. After our first meetup with Kevin, we knew this is the guy we want to work along with. We met with many realtor in the past where we felt so much pressure to buy immediately, but with Kevin it was the exact opposite. He listened and made sure he understood exactly what we are looking for. The entire time he reassured us that no matter how short or how long it'll take to find our home, he is committed to us till the end. He wanted us to feel at peace through the entire home buying process, and he sure delivered that!Not only is Kevin easy to work with, respectful, and loyal to his client, he has a wealth load of knowledge on real estate and county laws and regulations. His attention to small details (and very nick-picky personality) provided us a new dimension when we went out to look at homes together. It really helped give us deeper insights on what to look out for when shopping for homes. My biggest appreciation for Kevin is that his goal is not to sell me any home, but really finding a home that we absolutely LOVED! I loved how he would keep asking us "Are you guys happy?", it makes me smile to know Kevin is a realtor that cares for his client and really want to make sure we are happy.Another plus working with Kevin, is that he is so well connected with the right people. We ended up using a lot of his recommendations for additional services we needed from inspector to contractor for remodeling, which they were all fantastic! Kevin is so well-liked and such a well-respected individual, everyone that had worked with him have nothing but positive feedback about him. I felt so reassured to choose Kevin as my realtor hearing those feedback.Kevin, thank you so much for your amazing hard work to get us an amazing house. We are so blessed to have met you. You made our experience so pleasant and so fun. I will miss seeing your enthusiasm and definitely look forward to the next time we need look for another place. THANK YOU!!! =)

    • a++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ladies and gentlemen, look no further. if you are searching for a reliable, honest, hard-working and communicative real estate agent, kevin kim is the one. my sister has real estate license, but i honestly would rather work with kevin than my own blood!!!when my tenant of 8 years called to say she was moving out of the state, i panicked. my best friend referred kevin with the highest praise as she had worked with him to rent her property, so i called him during the thanksgiving week. kevin immediately went to see my property and gave me recommendations on some cosmetic upgrades needed and rental amount i should list for. after 2 weeks of minor fix-ups and renovation, kevin listed the house, and 2 days later, i had a several candidates. he carefully then screened each and recommended one family who fit the bill. within a week, lease was signed and security deposit was received. kevin suggested that i meet the future tenants, and i am glad that i did as i established some personal relationship with them.i cannot recommend kevin enough. not only was he my trusted realtor, he acted as a therapist to calm me down as i was incredibly stressed and nervous to find a suitable tenant. he also saved me some money by recommending just enough upgrades needed for the market and the neighborhood. he was always available to answer my questions and provide guidance, and he wasn't just working to get commissions and business, but to develop relationship with his clients. kevin kim, 2 thumbs and 8 fingers up. you are the best of the best!!!

    • Kevin is an amazing realtor! He has sold three houses now for my family, and we have been very happy working with him. Kevin is honest, trustworthy, hard-working, and genuinely cares about his clients. Kevin always worked hard to get us the best price possible. If you are looking for a realtor look no further because Kevin is the best!!!

      - Joanne Choy
    • don't think there is a better realtor out there. Seriously. I was looking for a place to lease with 2 of my friends and Kevin made it as painless as possible. There are so many properties out there but Kevin had the knowledge and intuition to know which ones were worth seeing. He always made us feel like a priority and maintained professional throughout the whole process. What I appreciated most about Kevin was the fact that he never pressured us into choosing a place. He knew that we were ultimately need to make the decision ourselves so he let us take our time while also giving sound advice. Ultimately, we chose the best place for us (Kevin knew along that's the place we'd end up in but never told us to pick it!). That's how you know you have an intuitive, caring, and respectable realtor!

    • Kevin is a very hardworker and awesome person. He was very helpful and made everything easy for my family to buy our first house. He is very trust worthy and honest. Thank you Kevin for all your hardwork.

      - Michael Jon
    • Kevin Kim recently helped us purchase a home in Orange County, and we were so happy to have Kevin on our team. Kevin is professional, dedicated, knowledgeable, friendly, detail oriented, and was committed to making sure we found the house of our dreams. Throughout the process Kevin kept us informed and there was no doubt that he was representing our best interests, which based on the busy work/life schedules of today, was a blessing. Not to mention he was available at all hours any day of the week to answer our questions or concerns. We would highly recommend Kevin to our family and friends.

      - Kris Welch
    • Kevin is an AMAZING realtor!! He helped me and my fiance find our first home. When we saw our dream home, we were worried because there were so many offers on the table. He was so personable to the sellers that they picked us out of the bunch and the most amazing thing was that he was able to negotiate and stay within our budget! He is honest, hard-working, flexible, reliable, and the list goes on and on. He was very helpful in finding our dream home. He wasn't pushy or overbearing like some realtors. He truly has your best interest in mind. He takes the time to get to know you and what you want in a home. I don't know much about real estate, so he definitely informed me about the entire process and made everything less stressful/smooth. He was always meticulous with paperwork and always responded quickly to any questions or concerns. He goes above and beyond for his customers. He even took the time to drive out of his way to take our photo in front of the house with the sold sign. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a home :) Thank you so much for all your hard work and dedication!!

      - Janet Kim
    • Actually, I got a new house 4 months ago. He supported me durning 2 years. It was great experience. He helped us everything. Finally, we found beautiful house. I can tell you if you want to meet a good realtor, you just call this guy.

      - Sunghoi An
    • Kevin is one of the most professional and deeply compassionate people I have ever met. My husband and I had a lot of reservations about becoming first time home owners until we met Kevin. He was an incredible teacher and leader in the process of finding us a home that fit our life and style. He gave us a lot of options that really helped us narrow in on a home we fell in love with. I thought we would find a home we wanted to buy but I never expected to find a home that is absolutely perfect. Kevin found us a home we can live in, grow in and even run our business in. Anything less than perfection wasn't an option for Kevin and we really appreciated that. He is generous not only with his knowledge but with his time. He cared more about us finding a home we loved than he cared about the money/deal/business. His compassion is genuine. If I could give him 10 stars on here I would.. I truly mean that. If you are considering buying a home, meet with Kevin and you will see in the first 10 minutes what an incredible realtor and person he is.

      - Courtney Sims
    • Kevin helped us in the sale of our first home and the purchase of our dream house. He is professional and trustworthy and always had our best interests in mind. He was very flexible and accomodating to our busy schedules and went far above and beyond to assist us during this stressful process. He responded almost immediately to every text, phone call, and email and always kept us updated during the process. He made our goals in finding a home his own and now we have a beautiful home that is everything we always wanted. Thank you, Kevin for your expertise and personal touch!

      - Elaine Sung
    • From the beginning to the end of the process, Kevin was responsive, professional, honest, and aware of our needs. We were in the middle of moving out of state and he made the sale of our home and transition as smooth as it could be. Kevin is very knowledgeable in real estate and priced our home perfectly for sale. Even with our high expectations, the home sold very quickly at a price that we were satisfied with. I would highly recommend Kevin to any prospective home buyer in Southern California.

      - Dan Park
    • Kevin, in my opinion, is the best! When we were searching for a new home he was extremely communicative, timely, and perceptive to the needs of our family. My husband and I know that Kevin truly wanted to help us find a home that would be perfect for our family, regardless of the length of time it would take. As we walked through homes he would tastefully point out different pros and cons to the home that my husband and I (as rookies) would not have noticed. He spent the time and energy to figure out what we wanted in a home, and would send us potential home listings as soon as they were put on the market, or even a few times a few days before. Kevin highly encouraged us to go and see a home he thought we would like. My husband and I had just skimmed over this home, but I'm glad we listened to him, because it is the home that we just purchased! It really was just what we wanted. The purchasing process was seamless thanks to Kevin!He is experienced and will go above and beyond. After the purchase of our home he continued to serve us by helping coordinate things with our contractor.We have already referred friends and family to Kevin and they can't speak highly enough of him either!Our 3 year old son the other day referred to him as "Uncle Kevin." I think that is priceless in explaining how awesome Kevin is as a realtor and as a person!!!

    • evin is the best. My family was looking to move out and find a new home to lease quickly. After trying to find a place on our own for over two months we turned to Kevin. Kevin worked his magic and we were moving into a new place the next week. Kevin is very meticulous, honest, and has great foresight. After each place we looked at he knew exactly what I was thinking. He understood what my family was looking for and needed in a home and he found us a great place to lease. During the process, he was very proactive. He had all the applications and documents prepared beforehand and would answer any questions we had promptly. He made sure that we had all of our utilities set before we moved in. The agent for the owner stopped answering questions the moment we signed the contract and the checks exchanged hands.Lastly, even though I was just leasing a home instead of purchasing I never felt like I was placed on the back burner. Kevin was always prompt and willing to take care of me and my family.

    • Kevin Kim is reliable, trustworthy and hard working. In this day and age where real estate agents and brokers are self-serving sharks who do not have their clients' best interests in mind, Kevin emerges as a beacon of light.We used Kevin's service, knowledge and expertise when we refinanced our home, and he worked tirelessly to consolidate our loans and used his razor-sharp instincts to get us a significantly lower interest rate, saving us several hundreds of dollars each month.His work ethic is a source of amazement to me and my husband, especially when he treats each and every client as if we were billionaires (which we definitely are not.... though one can always dream, right?). I respect his guiding philosophy about each client, knowing that no matter the amount of money the client has, it is their life savings, earned through blood, sweat and tears... and Kevin does not take that responsibility lightly.He returns all correspondences immediately, whether it is an email, text, or phone call. There have been several incidences in which I sent Kevin a quick email regarding some questions or other; though these were not urgent emails, Kevin responded within the hour, taking the time out of his very busy schedule to call me with suggestions and advice.Kevin is one of the best out there in the business. When my husband and I are ready to buy our new home, Kevin will be the first person we plan to call.

    • If you are looking for a realtor that will work tirelessly, that will act solely according to your best interests as a client, and will go way above and beyond anything that you might expect from a realtor, then Kevin is definitely your man.As first time home buyers, my wife and I were a little daunted by the whole confusing process, but Kevin guided us and helped us every step of the way, making it as smooth and easy a process as possible. He has such awesome attention to detail that he has every issue completely covered long before it even comes up, and at the same time he is extremely good at explaining everything that is going on so you know what is what every step of the way.It is very obvious to us that Kevin really is trying to do what is best for his clients, and not just trying to make a quick buck. Our purchase ended up being quite complicated, was on-again, off-again for a while, but rather than giving up and moving on to the next place, he hung in there and kept trying and trying and trying to get us this place just because he knew that it was the one we really wanted. He knows the area, knows the market, and after a couple of meetings, he knew us too, and had a great idea of what we were looking for. And the icing on the cake is that he continues to help us out even now that the sale is complete and we have moved in!We can highly recommend Kevin as a realtor, you absolutely cannot go wrong.

    • My wife and I loved working with Kevin. He was very attentive and was always available to us when we needed something.If you're looking for someone who has your best interests in mind, Kevin is your guy! He made us feel like we were his only clients. He took plenty of time with us and always made us feel like his top priority.

    • evin just helped my wife and I purchase a home in Fullerton. We had such a wonderful experience with him; he was very responsive, was familiar with the neighborhood, and worked hard on our behalf. We really appreciated how honest he was with us and how much he was genuinely seeking our best interest (for example, he advised against us overbidding on a previous property we were looking at). Even in the current market (seller's market, low inventory), Kevin helped us get into escrow on a home in the neighborhood that we wanted/in the price range we were looking for within 30 days of house hunting. Very glad we chose Kevin to be our realtor and very satisfied with all of his help.

      - David Wang
    • evin is the best! As first-time home buyers, we were nervous about the process. It was a huge relief to have someone as professional, honest, responsible and hard-working as Kevin on our side. He worked within out timeline and our budget to find the perfect house for us. He also had great referrals for home inspectors and contractors. Kevin guided us through each step of the home buying process, and made it seem much less daunting. He even got us a large credit from the seller, saving us lots of money. Thank you, Kevin!

      - Christine Fletcher
    • Kevin is an extremely hard-working, trust-worthy and detail oriented-professional who helped us refinance our home a couple of years ago. I am very impressed how he treated us like we were his sole clients, going out of his way on his own time to visit us at our residence. He especially made sure that we were well-informed and educated throughout the process, happily explaining and re-explaining every step thoroughly. He is indeed a consummate professional you will enjoy working with. If you're looking for a reliable finance person who you want to work tirelessly for you, look no further than Kevin Kim! He is very TRUSTWORTHY!!! You won't regret it!

      - Neil Acantilado
    • Hardworking, ethical, intelligent, sharp, far-seeing. These only touch the surface of how amazing Kevin is as a realtor. I was so happy with his services while I was looking for a home, and I'm still just as happy in the one he found for us. He takes the time to get to know his clients and is more than understanding about our needs and wants. He's also one of the most patient realtors I have ever worked with. I'm probably one of the most indecisive people in this world and through all my questions and doubts, I never once felt pressured by him with regards to his own time or with regards to the houses he had shown us. He definitely made us feel like we were his top priority, even though I knew that we were not his only clients and even though his entire commission from us would be what he could probably earn in five minutes. I have no qualms recommending Kevin as a realtor, absolutely no reservations! He is the best.

      - Esther Kim
    • Kevin processed my loan on a short sale with an extremely tight closing deadline. Due to the fact that I reside in San Diego, I used a different real estate agent (who is also incredible!). She was concerned about the narrow window of time we had to close escrow; however, Kevin was consistently nine steps ahead of everyone else. He is a fantastic communicator, insanely organized, fastidious to every detail, and made certain that I was poised to produce every document I needed well before I was required to submit it. Kevin secured an incredible rate for me and was uncannily spot on in his estimations regarding closing costs and mortgage payments. I was told by so many homeowners that the escrow process was a stressful and oftentimes, nerve-wracking one. I can't think of a single moment when I doubted we would close on time, and I attribute this to Kevin's calm demeanor and unparalleled work ethic. Kevin is someone you can whole-heartedly trust and depend on to take care of your real estate and loan needs. I cannot recommend him highly enough!!

      - Gina Lee
    • Kevin is trustworthy, hard-working, and amazingly knowledgeable about Orange County real estate. He worked around our busy schedules and answered all of our questions, sometimes even before we asked him! After showing us a number of homes, he understood what we wanted better than we did, and he knew where to find it. We got a great deal on the house, which is just the right first home for us and our future kid(s), and we couldn't be happier. Kevin, thank you so much for all of your help!

      - Anita Lee
    • Kevin was our agent for purchasing our home in Tustin, CA (Orange county). Several words come to mind when evaluating Kevin: extremely reliable, trustworthy and well-organized. As many have already testified, Kevin met and exceeded our expectations of a real estate agent from the beginning and throughout the escrow process. Time and time again, Kevin went out of his way to meet our needs and continuously followed-up with us at every deadline or meeting within escrow. His promptness and initiative helped to us close escrow within a timely matter. In short, we felt Kevin's actions and character gave us the impression he was putting as much effort into our home purchase as if he were purchasing the property for himself. I would definitely recommend him to all of my friends and families in the future. Thanks Kevin.

      - Herman Ng
    • I can't say enough great things about Kevin Kim. We repeatedly choose to work with him for all of our real estate needs: we bought our house through him; we got our mortgage through him; we are working with him to rent one of our properties; and when we refinance, we will also work with him. His responsiveness and professionalism make him such a pleasure to work with. We recommend him to all of our friends and family. Thanks Kevin!
