I was referred by a friend that had sold his house using Gio Mejia. He was so happy with the transaction and he could not stop raving about what a great job Gio had done in selling his home. I had not had an opportunity to buy a home in a while and was not very familiar with the market or what to do first. Upon meeting Gio I was struck by how knowledgeable he was about Mission Viejo market and walked me through everything I needed to know in buying a home. He asked that I be pre-approved so we would know what we could qualify for which we did. The lender he referred us to was great. My wife wanted to see every home in the area and he was so patient, whether it was after work, Saturday or Sunday. We were able to see all of the homes we wanted and he never rushed us through, he always helped us by giving us the pros and cons of each home. We finally settled on a home that we wanted to buy but were short on cash to close, he suggested we make a below ask offer and have the seller pay our closing costs. The sellers countered but with his help we were able to get the sellers to pay our closing costs and still got home below asking price. Throughout the process he was extremely pro-active, getting the sellers to repair items, showing up for inspections, contacting our lender and escrow to make sure everything went smooth. At every point he went well above expectations. By the time move in day came (5 days before scheduled) thanks to his extra effort , my wife and I felt that not only had we found a wonderful Real Estate agent but a friend. He and his wife even showed up on the day we moved in to wish us well in our new home. I would recommend Gio to all my friends and anyone I know that if you need anything regarding real estate to contact Gio Mejia Don and Martha Reinartz Mission Viejo, Ca
