Jorge Castellon

I just bought my first condo with Jorge and he was absolutely incredible to work with. He answered my countless questions and guided me through the process that I knew NOTHING about. Jorge works really hard and is on top of everything. I was so grateful to have found him! He found us a great deal on a condo below our price range and I really trusted everything he said. He was very honest and spoke intelligently about every property we viewed — what he liked and didn’t like, etc. It is clear he not only does his research but cares about what you want. Not only that, he spent countless hours in person and on the phone talking through our questions. Jorge was extremely patient, reliable, and trustworthy. I will never use another agent in San Diego and hope that I can find a «Jorge» for every other business transaction I go through in life.
Thank you Jorge!!!

Jorge has been instrumental in making it possible for me to buy a home on several occasions. In addition to helping me sell a property. Jorge helped me buy my first home, sell my first home and more recently helped my boyfriend and I buy a home. Anyone who has purchased a home, specially a first home would agree that it can be an intimidating process. However, I found the process very straight forward and stress free since Jorge did all the heavy lifting. He made the process seamless and helped me understand the process. Putting me at ease every step of the way. I am infinitely grateful for being fortunate enough to have the opportunity to work with Jorge on multiple purchases and a sale. I look forward to working with him on my future home purchase. Being a business professional myself I hold service and integrity in high regard. After having Jorge manage multiple real estate transactions for me I can assure you that you will not find a real estate professional who can provide greater service with such high integrity. Thanks again Jorge.

Jorge tried his very best to get my family a condo despite my variable income and even referred me to a mortgage specialist. I felt informed and treated professionally during this entire process even though in the end I was not ready to buy. I received helpful tips and I’ll remember him for the next time. Thank You!

Finding Jorge to be our realtor was the best thing to happen to our home search. As soon as we met with him, he knew exactly the type of home we were looking for. Once we found a place to purchase, he took care of everything without us having to ask. If we did need to reach him with a question or concern he was always very responsive. We also had Jorge sell a property for us, he took care of the staging and sold it on the first open house weekend. Besides being a good realtor, he is a good person who you can trust.

Jorge Castellon is the Real Estate Broker who I send my buyers to. I send them to him because he is honest, professional and above that he goes the extra mile every time. He is a highly educated Real Estate Broker and knows the market conditions well. He is also very quick when it comes to response times which is something that is always a plus when working with a Broker. I have worked with other Agents/​Brokers out there and they just do not have the same skills. I am a Senior Loan Officer and have worked with Jorge for the past 10 years and I highly recommend him for anyone looking to buy a home or sell a home. Whether your a first time buyer or an avid investor Jorge Castellon is your best bet!

Jorge Castellon was my realtor on both ends of a 1031 Exchange (selling a property and buying another). Jorge did a phenomenal job and was able to get me a price above where the initial appraisal came in on the sale property and significantly below appraisal price on the purchased property. On the sale property, Jorge worked diligently getting the property «sale-​ready» (e.g., cleaned, staged) and was able to compile a credible argument to challenge the bank’s initial appraisal in order to ultimately get the valuation higher and prevent issues with financing (and a potential reduction in price). Jorge proactively handled all aspects of the transactions as I live outside the San Diego area and was not able to be present at the property during the process.
Throughout both the buying and selling process, Jorge was a trusted advisor and clearly an expert on the San Diego real estate market. On my purchase, Jorge genuinely listened to what I was looking for and did a very good job in finding properties that met the mark, ultimately landing on a great investment property. Jorge had professional opinions providing valuable guidance along the way and well-​founded perspectives where helpful.
I believe a real estate agent should be a value add rather than simply a sunk cost to do a transaction. Jorge Castellon is certainly a value-​add. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to purchase or sell a property in San Diego. Thank you Jorge!

Jorge has helped me look up many property values, introduced me to helpful loan programs and other known agents in the area, and helped me quite a bit in the industry. He is extremely proficient and knowledgeable in the industry and I wouldn’t hesitate to send him a client who is looking to purchase or sell a home in San Diego. Highly recommend!!!

Any one who works with Jorge Castellon will quickly realize they are working with someone who will go above and beyond to represent them at the highest level. His passion to help and years of experience as a realtor is obvious in his fierce negotiating skills, and that makes him stand out far beyond any realtor that I have dealt with. Jorge helped me find a cozy house in October 2007 and since than the house has gained a value of over 200k which I’m very happy for. Thanks Jorge, my family appreciate all your hard work from finding me the property to getting it financed. I recommend Jorge.

I found Jorge Castellon on the internet while searching for a home. He responded immediately to my inquiry regarding one of the homes I saw online. We had been searching for quite some time with another agent and hadn’t been able to find anything. I told him the purchase price that my mom had been pre-​qualified for and he was honest with me and told me that it was going to be pretty much impossible to find the home we were looking for in that price range. Instead of finishing the call and hanging up the phone he actually started to ask me some questions. After a short conversation, he told me that he thought that we should qualify for much more than what our current loan officer had pre-​qualified us for. He then recommended me to the loan officer he uses.
Jorge was right! After only a few days his loan guy qualified for $ 100,000 more than what we had previously been told our max was. This made it so the homes that he started showing us were much nicer and larger than we had looked at with the previous realtor. We found a great home in the South Bay and went into escrow within a couple of weeks of our first conversation with Jorge. Everything was going well until the property inspection, which is when we found out that the property had major foundation issues. Instead of trying to convince us to buy this home he was honest with us again and advised us to cancel. We were very impressed that he was more interested in truly helping us than just making a commission like other realtors.
So we started our search again and within a week he found us another home that we liked right across the street from our relatives. The home was in high demand and Jorge negotiated with the seller and convinced them to accept our offer and cancel their first open house. About a month later we were moving in and now we are very happy. If you are looking for an honest and effective real estate agent, I would highly recommend Jorge.

Jorge and I live in the same building downtown. We met in the elevator one day and he showed me a condo on my floor that happened to be having an open house. I mentioned to him that I was renting in the building and wanted to buy a unit on a high floor with a large patio. He seemed professional and knowledgeable so I decided to work with him.
Once we narrowed my search down to what I was looking for, we realized that there were only 15 condo units in the building that fit my description and none of them were being offered on the market. So instead of sitting and waiting, or giving up, Jorge went the extra mile and wrote letters to the owners of the 15 condo units I was interested in. To my surprise this marketing technique worked, and one of the owners responded to the letter and contacted Jorge. At first, the sellers and I were way off on the price but after a lot of back and forth, Jorge was able to negotiate a great deal for me at $ 50,000 below market price!
During the loan/​escrow process there were all kinds of hurdles we had to get over (due to no fault of mine or Jorge’s) and Jorge was able to keep it all together while under immense pressure. We had to get multiple extensions and there was a lot of stress involved. It wasn’t easy but he guided me in the right direction and we were able to come out of it. I was very happy with his service and his ability to solve problems. Jorge is the guy I would recommend if you are looking for a professional, proactive, problem-​solving realtor.

Jorge is such a great agent to work with! I’ve worked with him on staging quite a few properties over the past few years. Jorge is very professional, thorough and makes sure his listings are managed and marketed to the highest standards. He’s very responsive and always answers his phone. He really cares about doing the best job possible for his clients! I highly recommend working with Jorge!

I was having trouble finding a home with my first realtor so my loan officer recommended me to Jorge Castellon. He told me that Jorge was the right real estate agent for the job, so I decided to get in contact with him. Jorge asked all of the right questions and after showing me just a few properties we found the perfect place for me within my price range. After the purchase, Jorge also recommended a good handyman to put some finishing touches on my condo. If you are looking for a professional realtor in San Diego, Jorge is the guy for you.

I’ve bought several homes in my life. Most real estate agents I’ve worked with try to steer me into buying a house in a neighborhood that they like or into buying a home out of my budget to increase their commisons.
Jorge is definitely not the typical real estate agent. He has a true talent for listening to what is important to the buyer and understanding what we want. (And more importantly what we are able to pay!!) Jorge’s strong knowledge of the San Diego housing market helps him to explain in detail the pros and cons of investing in any particular neighborhood as well as how future buyers are likely to judge any unique features on a property.
If you want an agent that cares about what you want and calls you back quickly, you can’t do better than Jorge.
Good luck and happy house hunting.

I’ve had the opportunity to work with Jorge Castellon on several transactions over the past few years. In my experience, Jorge Castellon is a superstar agent, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy a home.
There are many things that stand out about Jorge. I would say first and foremost, is one word: Composure. The business of real estate is peaks and valleys, and nobody is better at managing the expectations of all parties, finding solutions to problems, and allowing cooler heads and reasonable thinking to prevail, than Jorge Castellon. He is able to think outside the box and hold deals together by creating win-​win scenarios, when a deal may have otherwise fallen apart.
Another word that describe Jorge is honest. I recall a specific scenario where a less than ethical solution was on the table, and Jorge’s client, at the urging of Jorge, walked away from the scenario. How many agents can you say that about?! He protects his clients, he looks out for their best interest, and he’s not afraid to walk away – even when it can cost him a buck.
I can go on and on, but I think you get the picture. If you’re looking for a real estate agent, Jorge Castellon should be a man that you consider.

Jorge was my saving grace. I needed to rent a furnished apt/​condo in downtown San Diego within 4 days, on a tight budget, after my previous place fell through. I randomly walked into Jorge’s office seeking any help I could get, and he greeted me with a smile and a solution. By THAT afternoon I had an appointment to see a condo in a high rise for the following day. I ended up loving the building and put my deposit down immediately. Everything worked out for the best and I could not be happier. Jorge was timely, friendly and efficient. I could not have asked for a better agent! I would definitely recommend Jorge for anyone looking for a place in the San Diego area! He goes above and beyond for his clients.

My husband and I chose Jorge as our real estate agent and thank goodness we did! Not only was Jorge a very professional Realtor, but he just made it so stress free. We have bought several homes in the past and none have been as simple as this one. Thank you Jorge!
