Testimonials

I would highly recommend Susan to anyone looking to buy a home in the Dana Point area. As first time home buyers and new to the area, she was invaluable in guiding us through the process. She spent time getting to know us and our preferences and she knew right away when a home was or wasn't for us. She's a great communicator, incredibly responsive, and an overall joy to work with. She helped us purchase our home as the backup offer despite other higher offers because she knew what the seller valued. She is truly the best realtor in Dana Point and we could not have asked for someone better to work with on our journey purchasing our first home!

If you want someone to work tirelessly on your behalf, then Susan is your realtor. The results were amazing. We received 11 offers within 4 days and sold for over $150K above asking. She was so responsive to us and she has such a great sense of the market. She knows what buyers want but also knows how to efficiently stage a home for sale, as my results would indicate. I’ve sold 3 homes in the last 10 years and Susan is the best realtor I’ve ever had – bar none!

I can't say enough about how much we loved working with Susan! Susan is one of the most thoughtful and kind people we have ever had the pleasure of doing business with! She is attentive and patient, and really creative with getting the deal done. My husband and I were blown away by Susan's attention to detail and willingness to go above and beyond her job while we were in escrow. She was so helpful in finding us vendors and resources to make sure we had the peace of mind in making our purchase. I truly cannot recommend Susan enough- we have bought a few homes over the past decade and our experience with her was truly top notch.

We have friends that gave us three different realtors they recommended. My husband and I interviewed all three and selected Susan because she followed up with us and had good energy. We were lucky to have such an impressive professional she took us out that weekend to look at open houses because we were ready to buy! We looked at 15 homes and believe it or not the first one we looked at was the perfect one! It was a very smooth purchase and Susan was reliable with communicating to all parties concerned. Buying is stressful so it was nice to be able to count on someone every step of the way. She is truly a gem! We've been in our new place for a week now and couldn't be happier! Thank you, Susan! Hope to have that glass of champagne together soon!

Susan was a delight to work with from start to finish. She worked with us for 4 months helping us find our home and made every step of the process easy for us. We could not recommend her more - she is competent and knowledgeable and thinks of all the little things throughout buying and selling a home. We would definitely use her services again! 5 Stars for Susan Chase!

When it came time to sell my father's home in Nellie Gale, our first thought was of Susan Chase as we knew her personally and were not that impressed with the other realtors we had interviewed. Boy, are we happy we did! Susan was proactive, professional, and creative. She had great ideas about staging and minor touch-ups which we never would have thought of...things that cost little but increased the appeal of the home. She was on top of the process from start to finish and had backup offers in case we needed them. And the marketing and networking strength of Compass Real Estate was phenomenal as well. At it turned out, the home sold and closed very quickly, in what we were concerned was a down market, for over asking price. We cannot recommend Susan Chase of Compass Real Estate highly enough.

Susan was everything we could ever want in a realtor when it came to selling our home. Her marketing efforts left no stone unturned using printed, published, website, social media, and networking to get our home sold. With an impressive knowledge of the market and so much added value she stands out as one of the best around. Some agents simply stick a sign in the yard and Susan gets the work done to make a sale happen! We highly recommend Susan!

Susan was our realtor on both the buy and sell side transactions when we decided to downsize from our larger family home to a new place perfect for empty nesters. We had a terrific experience with her on both and highly recommend her and her team. She is organized, communicates with all parties clearly and made everything go smoothly despite some tight timelines. She has a great network of resources to help with all phases of the process and the modern marketing savvy you need in today’s real estate world.

Coming from the east coast we were unfamiliar with the area and real estate market. From pure luck, we came upon Susan Chase, and how lucky we were to find her. She was professional, concerned with our needs, and went out of her way to make our experience stress-free. Making a major financial decision needed proper guidance. Susan was all of these things. Not only was she a professional, but we consider her our friend. I would recommend her without any hesitation!

Susan was wonderful to work with! Her knowledge and expertise of the local market and real estate, in general, were so helpful. She professionally guided me through the process of selling my home and buying another - it really was stress-free due to her complete handling of the transactions. I'm most certainly recommend Susan and have to anyone who is searching for an outstanding real estate professional.

Our family has moved around the country many times over the years, and as a result, have gone through the process of buying and selling homes often. We can honestly say that working with Susan was our best experience with a realtor. She was in contact with us often, and always kept us up to date on what was happening. She took the time to explain things to us and she went above and beyond to resolve issues quickly. We knew she was looking out for our best interests always. Susan helped us find our get-away home in Dana Point. She not only is our realtor but now a very good friend as well!

I had the best experience using Susan Chase as my realtor. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the Orange County area. She recently helped me find a beautiful townhome and certainly made my first home purchase easy and stress-free. Susan was so helpful throughout the entire process, always thinking of every little detail. I can't recommend her enough!

Susan helped us get our forever home here in Laguna Niguel. She is an expert in the South County area and really knew her neighborhoods. We are a young and growing family and shared with her what we were looking for. She knew of the neighborhoods with the best schools and that had a great community or family environment we were looking for. It was super easy to work with her, communication was great, as we texted back and forth about new houses that were coming onto the market and she was diligent in helping us find the right homes to look at. After finding our forever home, she stayed on top of everyone during the closing process to make sure we secured our home. Thanks, Susan you are truly wonderful!

Susan helped us in the sale of two of our properties and the purchase of our new “Dream” home in Laguna Niguel. She was able to sell our home in 3 days with her cutting-edge marketing and her network. She was available 24/7 and followed through in a very timely manner with whatever support was required. We had complete confidence in her professional positive communication and negotiation skills while working with both the buyers and sellers on our behalf. If you are looking to buy or sell, we highly recommend Susan!

Susan was so helpful when we started the process of buying our first home. She was knowledgeable and held out hands through every step. I appreciate how patient she was as we went to many open houses and gave us the feedback, we needed to make the best decision for us. She was always there to answer any questions we had, and I am so thankful for her!

Susan helped me buy my new home, and she was wonderful! She was there the entire time, ready and willing to answer all my questions. She helped me when I could not be there I moved from outside the area, she and went above and beyond my expectations. I would highly recommend Susan to anyone looking to buy a home. She definitely knows her way around this area and this business! Thank you again, Susan!

Susan made our condo purchase one of the best real estate buying experiences that we have ever had. At our first meeting to look at the condo that we ultimately purchased, she took the time to get to know us and our needs in finding the perfect condo for us. Her no-pressure approach gave us time to talk through and make the decision to place an offer on our terms with her advice. She provided us with timely advice and updates throughout the escrow process. Her connections with our loan provider, the escrow company, our home inspector as well as carpet and painting companies for renovations that we needed to have done after move-in made it a very efficient process. She also ensured that the seller took care of all items that required repair before we moved in. We now have the perfect condo for our needs and have a great new friend. We will certainly go to Susan Chase again in the future for our real estate needs!
