Pond Team Real Estate - Compass Encinitas

Our second experience dealing with Pond Team Real Estate was selling our beach-area condo. Their conduct and service was exemplary, the same excellence we experienced with our first sale. From the initial launch, Sparky & Katie orchestrated and managed it all. They staged the condo, coordinated with merchants/tradespeople, publicized and showed it, and managed the closing. Throughout the process, they kept us consistently informed. The Pond Team is diligent and decisive; they actively advertise and pursue every lead. Their attention to each and every detail gave us confidence. They took it all upon their shoulders and were successful in selling the condo. Thanks so much Pond Team for your extraordinary expertise and friendship. K&D

It was our fist time buying a property and we couldn't have asked for better real state agents than Katie and Sparky. They walked with us every step of the way and provided extremely valuable information. They are reliable, easy to reach and quick to respond to questions. They genuinely care! They made this complex process very smooth for us and I recommend them without any hesitation.

Katie and Sparky are the consummate professionals. They are super knowledgeable, responsive and proactive. Katie's expert negotiation skills ensured that our offer was selected among several other competing offers, and she pushed the seller and escrow to make sure the closing went smoothly and that our transaction closed on time. She and Sparky also identified issues that we had not thought to consider, which ended up saving us time and money. We couldn't be happier with this team and will definitely use them again!

Working with the Pond Realty Team has been an absolute blessing! Katie Pond sold our Encinitas home within 2 days above our asking price and supported us along our journey to find our new dream home, all within just a few short weeks. It's been an incredible experience and we're beyond grateful to have had Katie and her team on our side throughout this whole process. Katie is extremely professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and a fierce negotiator. We truly appreciated her graceful demeanor and expert guidance, especially during the uncertain and overwhelming moments that arose given the current competitive market. Even though we knew Katie was working with multiple clients, she treated us like we were her only clients, always answering our questions and responding to our concerns. She gained our trust quickly as she made us feel heard and understood. Katie is intuitive and was always a step ahead, going above and beyond ensuring our best interests were being met. She is also very well connected and can recommend all kinds of real estate vendors such as lenders, stagers, home inspectors, contractors, and movers. Given this was our 4th home buying experience, we can confidently say that Katie Pond is truly the BEST and we highly recommend her to anyone selling or buying a home. The high level of service she provides is unparalleled! We feel truly lucky to have had Katie as our real estate agent and will forever be grateful for her helping us make our home dream come true! Thank you! Gladys and Joel

We have had the pleasure of working with Katie and Sparky for sometime, and the whole experience has been nothing short of amazing. In the time that we have worked with them, they have educated us on market trends, made thoughtful suggestions on things we should be aware of, and taken a personal investment into what is right for our family. Katie and Sparky are clearly experts in the industry, and have the ability to anticipate questions or things before they arise. Because of this, they are able to come up with actionable solutions ahead of time, making the process that much easier. Through our interactions, you can tell that they are well respected in the industry, and have great relationships with other realtors. We feel so fortunate to have found them, as they have made what can be a stressful time, a time where we feel supported. I would highly recommend Katie and Sparky to anyone.
