What do Clients Say?
I hired Wendy to sell my summer home in Solana Beach. I was thrilled with her work! She used her crew to clean, organize, store and stage my home from top to bottom as I live out of state and was not available. She is honest and hardworking as they come. I highly recommend Wendy as a seller’s agent.

I met Wendy through social circles in Solana Beach. I found her to be very competent, super smart and easy to talk to. So when I decided to sell my investment property in Bay Park, I asked her to represent me! She used all her fantastic skills and connections to help prep my house for sale, including doing some of the front gardening herself! She sold my home within a few weeks after obtaining multiple offers and negotiated a great price as well as terms. Because I was doing a 1031 exchange, she also had to help me find a new home within 60 days! She personally picked me up several times a week and showed me homes all over the County of San Diego. I eventually bought a new investment property in Oceanside, a new hot area, which Wendy recommended! At the close of that escrow, she also was able to secure a new tenant immediately and was able to obtain the first 12 months of rent upfront in cash! I felt well taken care of by Wendy, and now I consider her a dear friend (as well as realtor for life!)

I would recommend Wendy Forrester without hesitation. Success in purchasing a home in today's fast paced housing market is unequivocally linked to how wisely you choose your real estate agent. Loan acquisition is seemingly only half the battle. Losing out on home you can finally love, is frustrating to say the least. Wendy has many years of experience and is a very savvy negotiator. She also specializes in the price range of homes sold in this coastal area. She has lived here for 25 years so she has the connections to hear about upcoming listings. On a personal level, her enthusiasm for her job and her energy level impress me. Her communication style is clear and she makes it easy to communicate with her. She is tenacious and I wound up getting a very good deal on my house because of it. Fast forward, 2 years later, she sold my home in Rancho Santa Fe and found me a beautiful new home in Encinitas! I highly recommend her for all your real estate needs

Wendy was great to work with! She is very knowledgeable about properties in the North San Diego County area. Wendy was also very good at crunching the numbers and finding me a great investment property. As an investor, I will not buy a property unless the numbers make sense and it is a great opportunity. Because the market was just starting to turn, Wendy acted swiftly to get me a great investment property in a timely manner while it still appeared to be a buyer's market. She worked hard to negotiate with the seller's agent concentrating on the bottom line of what I wanted to spend. We got the property for the price I was willing to pay! Her services didn't stop there, once we obtained the property, she found an exceptional property management company who rented out the property with a two year lease at top dollar! I will use Wendy again, without hesitation, when purchasing an investment property in the San Diego area!

As a recent widow who needed extra help and support moving on with my life, Wendy's assistance in selling my family home was invaluable. She went above and beyond at every turn. She worked so hard in preparing the home for sale that I received multiple offerings above list the day the property came to market. I would never use another San Diego realtor. Wendy is the best!
