About Diane Sullivan

We first met Diane Sullivan about 10 years ago. She was hosting an open house in Point Loma that we had gone through. We are Canadians that love spending our vacations in San Diego and have come to love the city and dreamed of eventually owning a vacation home there. Diane, over the years, sent us reports about the Pont Loma real estate market. This year we bit the bullet and decided it was time to purchase our little piece of sunshine! We contacted Diane and she was instrumental in helping us buy the property from afar during a worldwide pandemic. Although we never stepped foot on the property, Diane and Zoom became our best friends! Her many years...

Diane worked with us for about 2 years in our pursuit to try and find a home we could afford in Ocean Beach (which was no easy task). We had pretty much given up all hope, but Diane always had a positive and "hang in there" attitude then, due to divine intervention, magic, pure luck, or some combination of all the above along with Diane's skills, we acquired the home of our dreams. We are so super duper stoked! And Diane made it happen! What we like most about Diane is she tells it like it is she won't sugarcoat what you necessarily want to hear just to woo you over. Diane is straightforward and to the point. Furthermore, if there is some issue Dian...

Diane is the best! I am not prone to exaggeration, but Diane truly made the house-hunting process enjoyable. My wife and I bought our first home (a condo in Point Loma) through Diane literally three weeks before our wedding. It was a very busy time and it truly would not have been possible without Diane. I cannot overstate how wonderful Diane made the whole process. She is the most responsive, articulate, knowledgeable, and helpful professional. She is incredibly flexible and honest and made us feel comfortable in what has the potential to be an overwhelming and scary process. We met her through a referral and have already referred her to many of ou...

Diane is absolutely incredible! My wife and I closed on a house only a couple of weeks ago, and we're already joking about buying another house just to hang out with Diane again. We reached out to Diane about a year ago when we were wishy-washy about even buying a place. Even in our non-serious state, Diane treated us seriously and helped us become familiar with neighborhoods and home values in the Point Loma area. At no point was she impatient or pushy with us. Once we became more serious about buying a home, Diane was ready to kick it into full gear. We quickly learned that Diane has a fantastic working relationship with other realtors in the Poin...

My Sister lived in San Diego and passed away unexpectedly. I live in Pennsylvania. After several trips to San Diego to take care of her final arrangements and set up an Estate Account, I had to find a Real Estate Professional to help me through this difficult time. Diane Sullivan was everything one would hope for in an Agent. She took over, recommending necessary improvements, selecting carpeting, painting, bathroom remodeling, and cleaning. Diane knows the market and location extremely well. She said we should l, list the Condo the first week of January and set the purchase price. She thought we could find a buyer and close by the end of January. W...

Diane Sullivan is a thoroughly professional real estate agent. She stuck with us for three years until we found the right property to fulfill our needs and our bank account. She was always knowledgeable and available and, if she was working with another client, got back to us immediately to establish a meeting, phone call, whatever was convenient for us. Despite the fact that there were special issues involved with the property we purchased, she was totally honest with us about these issues even if the facts could have put the deal in jeopardy. She never exaggerates inappropriately what the properties positive aspects are and she presents the negati...

Diane Sullivan is a professional who truly looks out for her client's interest. We used Diane for the selling of our Cape Cod style home in Pt. Loma San Diego and she was patient, caring, detailed. She is full of knowledge, and was very responsive to all our ques tions and inquiries via email and phone. She will be by your side throughout the entire process to make sure you understand the nuts and bolts. We even received raving compliments from both the buyers' agent and escrow officer regarding Diane as one of the best agents they've worked with. Diane made sure we were on top of our deadlines and she acted quickly on any items that arose that ...

We just bought our second home with Diane and had another great experience. She spent the time to listen and respond to our needs and preferences (vs pushing onto other options) when our search began and is clearly an expert in the area, as she lives in it herself. Throughout the search and escrow process, she was organized and clear during each step and offered us sound advice when we were unsure how to proceed. She was quick and thorough in responding to questions and concerns and always through the appropriate medium (call, text, email, in-person). But the best thing about Diane is that she is proactive, a quality that is important when it comes ...

Diane has been an absolute pleasure to work with! She has helped us get into two homes in San Diego in the past 5 years and each situation went better than expected. Her experience shows as she shares her thoughts and ideas which helped us make decisions that best suited our families needs. Diane has brought items to our attention that we did not consider or catch ourselves thus mak ing our decisions go in a different direction for the better of our living situation. She always made my wife and I feel like we were her only client as she was available every time we have requested to meet at a property even if it was 5 times in one week just for our...

The five stars across the board are not an exaggeration. From her meticulous attention to detail, to her patience (with our wishy-washiness and our newbie lack of knowledge) to her timeliness and willingness to work outside of normal “office hours” (we submitted our offer on the 4th of July!), we could not have asked for a better agent. As two folks with zero knowledge of the real estate business, we felt taken care of from the first open house to receiving the keys. So many friends told us the home buying process would be miserably stressful, and while I don’t want to do it again any time soon, Diane made it pretty freak in painless. I am eternally...

We were so lucky to find Diane. We did not have any knowledge of the real estate market in Point Loma and we were getting ready to list my mother's house in the same neighborhood. She was fabulous. Acting on her advice, since we did not know the local market, she guided us to a perfect listing price, found us a team to completely empty the contents of the residence (and 30 years of accumulated life) and helped arrange staging that we think added substantially to the value of the property. We have bought and sold many homes in different locations over almost 50 years and Diane’s professionalism, availability delightful style made this transactio...

We appreciate the professionalism, expertise, and efficiency of Diane Sullivan. All went smoothly in the sale of our luxury Point Loma condo with Diane Sullivan at the helm. She provided "soup to nuts" service and assistance with transitioning the condo from a rental property to one ready to go on the market for the maximum sales price. She coordinated for an excellent staging company to furnish the condo, and set a good sales price that attracted solid interest in the property. She handled multiple offers with acumen. All went well during the short escrow period. We would definitely recommend Diane Sullivan and would work with her again for any fut...

We all wish to thank you for a wonderful job selling our home in Point Loma. That house was one of the favorite places we have lived all these years moving about while Tim was in the Navy. Tim may not have told you that I used to walk by it for months while living a few blocks away, and admired it so much then had a chance to buy it just before it was rented out. We hope the Buyers are happy there. It sounds like they are ready to give new life to the house! All your work and professionalism are greatly appreciated, especially patience through the last bit. Thank you from all our family for helping with the sales work. We appreciate all your efforts.

Diane Sullivan listed my home and sold it within a month, in a transaction that was not just efficient but enjoyable. I found her to be very professional, knowledgeable, and trustworthy; very willing to accommodate my wishes while advising and coaching me along the way. She was the most prepared of all the agents with whom I have worked over the years, and I would trust her completely with any transaction. I recommend her highly.

I found Diane to be a true professional in every sense of the word. Her understanding of the market is amazing which helped her with both establishing the selling price and negotiating on our behalf. She has excellent customer service skills and when combined with her creative marketing expertise, it made the entire process seamless and stress-free! I highly recommend her!

Diane has become a family friend over the years. She has helped us with our first condo purchase and watched our family outgrow it. After a year of looking for the perfect home, we finally found it with her help and knowledge. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell or purchase their home.

Diane was a joy to work with. She was always upbeat, eager and on time. Her experience level and local knowledge was incredible and she definitely shared it with us. Through each step of the home buying process Diane was there to guide us and offer excellent advice. Thank you Diane!

After working with Diane to purchase or buy three homes in the last two years, I would definitely recommend Diane. No one knows the San Diego market better and somehow she makes you feel like you are her only client.

We listed a unique, large and somewhat problematic property with Diane. Her expertise, diligence, persistence and patience (with us as well as the process) resulted in a successful sale. I recommend her very highly.
