“I worked with Amy when I bought my condo in 2011. It was my first purchase, and a short sale at that! It was a long and complicated process, but she was an absolute rock star the whole time. Answered every little question I had, and got me such a great deal on my condo. I am so grateful for Amy, and would highly recommend her for any and all of your real estate needs!” - Joanie B. “Amy O’Dorisio and her team nailed it again. She helped us sell our house in under a month (cash offer) for more than we asked. This was a bit of a tall order considering what we gave her to work with (short timeline, pets in the house, logistical challenges...). It didn’t matter. Her experience guided us to a quick and painless close of escrow. Amy is always available, always professional, super knowledgeable, not to mention a wonderful person. This is the third time we’ve worked with Amy over the years. It almost seems like each time gets better, though I don’t know how... She was perfect in each transaction. I strongly urge anyone looking to buy or sell in the San Diego area to contact Amy O (amyosandiego.com). She is the real deal.” - Mike M. “When my wife Ginger and I decided to look into buying our first home, I called a trusted old friend, and volleyball partner named Chris Magill (owner of Aztec Property Inspections) who is one of San Diego’s top home inspectors. I asked Chris for a recommendation of a good Realtor, and he sent me to Amy. Having no idea what we were in for, we started the search for our first home. In the interest of time I will give you the condensed version of our experience …. For two months, with Amy’s guidance, and support, we searched tirelessly for what would eventually be our new home. Amy went to bat for us right away, trying to separate us from the group of 16 who put offers in on this short sale house in the three days it was on the market. Fast forward 7 more months. After countless roadblocks, pitfalls, the inevitable delays they caused, and the stress that accompanied them, we finally got the word that we would soon be able to make this house our home! Each time this deal almost fell through, Amy was there to save it. From the unique way she presented our offer in the beginning, to the letters she wrote to the banks on our behalf in the 11th hour, Amy always found a way to succeed where others, I am convinced, would have failed. Having someone who genuinely cares about our lives help us through this trying time was a blessing. Amy O’Dorisio is not only one of San Diego’s most respected Realtors, but through this process has become a truly valued friend.” - Jeff C. “Buying a house with Amy was such a pleasure. Helping us choose the right neighborhood, navigate the lending juggernaut, the title process, tax issues, and closing, she was always ready and available to take a phone call or email with our many questions. I liked her Docu-Sign software enabling us to do the paperwork over the Internet. Especially, though, we enjoyed knowing her, and having a cheerful and knowledgeable person with us during our search and closing. Many thanks.” - Ed C. “I dreaded the thought of finding a real estate agent & my fears were confirmed based on my initial conversations with many of them. However, when I met Amy there was no pretension. I felt that we communicated in a very open & affective manner which helped her know what I was looking for & ultimately it helped her work her magic to find my dream home.” - Brent S. “Amy is extremely professional, yet down to earth and very easy to communicate with. She has a vast knonwledge of the real estate market and readily shares any tidbit of information that may be useful to either buyers or sellers. She whole-heatedly loves what she does and it is apparent that she wants you to get the best home/price you deserve.” - Laurin W. “Amy was fun to work with as well as extremely professional. It was nice how she was totally understanding of our needs and timeline, but encouraging of us through the process. I never once felt pressured. Amy was always more than helpful if I didn’t understand something and explained clearly. 150% and 2 thumbs up!” - Sarah K.

It’s tha freshe
It’s that time again! Spring has arrived and so has the need to freshen things up a bit. Whether you’re planning a total home makeover, or you just want to declutter, organize, and refresh some spaces, we’ve got a few ways to get you started. Before you spring into action, make sure you have the right cleaning products. There are a ton of eco-friendly, non-toxic options and it’s worth a little extra research to find the right ones. Clean in chunks. Spring cleaning can feel overwhelming. Start by making a list of everything you want to get done and then break it down into 30-minute chunks. Need to dust, vacuum, sweep and mop? You don’t have to do it all in one day. Start with dusting first and see how far you get. Think floorboards, celling fans, corner walls, and windowsills. That alone will help freshen everything up. Hit the washing machine. There’s nothing better than fresh, clean linens. Take some time to clean stains before

Focus on the bathroom. When was the disinfected your shower head? Showers heads are magnets for mold and bacteria, and use an antibacterial and anti-mold solu areas. When it comes to the sink, tub and nothing a hefty scrub brush can’t take, care forget to use it on the grout, you’ll be am great it looks afterwards.

Windows, both inside and out, tend to get very grimy without you even noticing. Power-cleaning them is probably one of the most satisfying things you can do. Use a streak-free window cleaner and a microfiber towel to quickly wash away all that seasonal buildup. You might also want to clean your blinds along the way, as they tend to accumulate a lot of dirt as well. Your reward? A beautiful, clear view to the outside. Finally, if it’s warm enough, don’t forget to open up all the doors and windows and let that fresh spring air circle through. There’s really nothing better than a sparkly clean home to enjoy on a gorgeous spring day.
