Customer Reviews
Joel Kott | Broker Associate
We used Joel to sell our condo and purchase our new home. Right from the start he was very helpful and made us feel like we were his only clients.
Our condo was sold within 72 hours of listing with multiple offers on the table and we were able to get one of the highest prices in the area.
The home we purchased is in a very desirable neighborhood that he recommended and we love the place. It has everything we asked for and wanted. The sellers agent of the home was not the most pleasant to work with, but Joel worked very hard for us to make the process as easy as possible.
We recommend him to our friends and would recommend him to anyone that is serious about buying or selling a home.

If you want it done right then contact Joel Kott. His knowledge of the industry made our experience so much less stressful and smooth. We appreciate all his patience and understanding during such a stressful process. If we had to do it all over again we would not choose anyone else.

Joel was incredibly professional, attentive, and knowledgeable in our search for a new home. He guided us every step of the way, from setting up our MLS search to personally showing us homes until we found just the right one. I highly recommend Joel.

Joel was a referral through a co-worker on a random day in the break room. As a first time home buyer I really didn’t know where to look, so I asked around at work. Boy was I glad that co-worker referred me to Joel! He reached out promptly after given my contact info and got the ball running so quickly, but in such a nice and genuine manner. I didn’t feel like I was being baited or convinced to choose him as my agent. He was open and honest about the whole process, which was very confusing at first as a first time home buyer. I can’t stress enough how easy going and great of a person he is, so naturally, I chose him to help me. Even with my small budget to find a condo, he never made me feel less important. He worked just as hard to find me my perfect home as anyone else. He is also very educational in every step, finding a lender, going through escrow, the whole thing, I learned sooooo much! Anything I didn’t understand, Joel took the time to explain it to me. Joel is very professional, but also warm and friendly, like an old friend. The condo I wanted had 4 other offers and Joel fought for me to get my place and we did! As I’m sitting here writing this review in my dream condo, I highly recommend Joel if you’re looking to purchase. He’s extremely knowledgeable and you won’t regret it. The whole process happened so organically and I couldn’t be happier with the place I found and it’s all because of Joel!

Joel is without a doubt the most efficient and enjoyable Realtor to work with in Orange County. His knowledge of the OC market and connections had my property sold and escrow closed within 3 weeks. His transparency in the process and negotiating tactics are second to none. I’d highly recommend reaching out to Joel and his team if you are looking for the best experience in selling or buying a home, he won’t let you down.

Joel worked diligently as our realtor for over a year as we searched for our ‘perfect’ home. He offered and came to numerous open houses at our convenience, while providing honest feedback and opinions throughout the searching process which was greatly appreciated. After he had helped us find the home we had been waiting for, Joel guided us through the offer and negotiating process making my wife and I feel extremely comfortable despite facing the largest purchase of our lives. Throughout all our interactions, Joel was attentive and without a doubt left us with a feeling he was looking out for our best interests. After closing our transaction, the listing agent commented on Joel’s professional demeanor and acknowledged Joel helped get us the deal as opposed to the other offers on the table. He does his job and he does it well.

Joel is the BEST! My wife and I had been looking for a larger home for our growing family for the last few years. Joel came highly recommended and for good reason. Joel is knowledgeable, professional, and works extremely hard for his clients. We met with Joel and described the type of house we were looking for. We explained we were not in a rush, but if the right house popped up we’d be interested in making a move. Over the past couple years, I would periodically get calls from Joel when a house would hit the market that fit our description. We viewed several houses with Joel over the span of 4 years. Despite us never making an offer on a house, Joel continued to spend his valuable time working on our behalf. He was never pushy and never pressured us. This summer Joel contacted us and showed us our “dream house.” We made an offer, Joel negotiated aggressively on our behalf, we closed the deal, and we started escrow. Throughout the escrow process Joel was amazing. He walked us through all the different steps, forms, reports, etc. It was an entirely foreign world to us. Joel explained it all and made sure everything was done on time. Joel was always responsive to our calls or texts. Joel also helped us lease our old home, put us in touch with great remodeling contacts, and assisted in everything we needed. Joel is well known and highly respected in the real estate industry, and we saw first hand why that is the case. We can’t say enough positive things about him. I highly recommend Joel for your real estate needs.

Joel came as a referral from a friend and we couldn't be happier with our decision to work with him in purchasing our first home! He was very professional yet personal and friendly, to the point where we've now become more of friends after the fact. From late night responses to questions of ours to meeting contractors when we couldn't, he went above and beyond. He was knowledgeable about the entire process which was extremely helpful since we've never done it before. Joel went to bat for us when we had requests and concerns and ultimately my wife and I came out of the process extremely happy with our home and in choosing Joel to help!

We had a wonderful experience working with Joel! He was very professional yet felt like we can call him a friend. His knowledge of the areas and the competition really helped us make the best decisions. He really went to bat for us when we needed him to. Not once did we feel like he wasn't fighting for us. When certain things come up that we were uneducated on, he took the time to explain it to us. He brought a lot of ideas to the table when talked about cosmetic work on our house. I would highly recommend considering Joel. We will certainly be working with him again once the time comes.

Because of family problems, we were forced to short sale our condomium at the Stadium Lofts in Anaheim. We listed it with Joel Kott at Paul Kott Realtors in Anaheim CA in May of 2011. We received an offer, Joel negotiated with the buyer and the first and second mortgage companies, the buyer backed out but Joel was ready with a back-up offer which was accepted. He was on top of each step and guided us through the process. He was respectful of our privacy and request for 24 hour notice to show the property. The use of docu-sign avoided the need for multiple visits to his office. We had heard about so many difficulties in short sales, and although it was not easy, Joel Kott completed the sale and escrow closed in October 2011. We were very impressed with his professionalism and highly recommend Joel Kott.

Joel helped sell our home in California during our relocation to Texas. This was my husband and I's first time selling a home along with moving cross-country and Joel helped make the process as easy as he could. Utilizing docusign, being constantly available via text, quick and efficient email response, and even offering advice and suggestions for purchasing our new home in TX, were just of the some of the ways he went above and beyond. I fully believe we were able to get over asking price and top dollar for our home because of his marketing and negotiating skills. I've already recommended him to several friends and will continue to do so!

Joel is an extremely hard working individual who will do a great job for you either if you are buying or selling a property. He has high ethics, knows what he is doing and puts his clients first. Simply put..."He gets it!"

As a first time buyer, I really didn't know what to expect. I was nervous about finding the right place in the right neighborhood and about the whole buying process. Joel went above and beyond to make sure I had a thorough understanding of everything, and he made buying my first home a breeze! From responding to every single one of my questions to holding my hand through the signing of loan docs (which he absolutely did not need to do!), I am so grateful to have worked with him and look forward to staying in contact as my family grows and we need to expand. Thank you Joel!

We used Joel Kott to negotiate the sale and purchase of our home. As an agent he worked with us to market our house and helped us to maximize our home value. Joel, listened to what we were looking for in a new home and was able to be flexible and adapt to us as we changed our mind to better narrow our search. Due to his ability to listen and adapt our home search evolved and we ended up in a great home and great neighborhood--nowhere close to where we started looking and we couldn't be happier.

Joel helped me purchase my second home and I cannot express how much easier this process was than the first experience. He guided me every step of the way, found the perfect house, negotiated a great price, and wasn't calling me constantly with some sort of an emergency to get paperwork completed. He even pointed me in the right direction to get financing.
He's knowledgeable, considerate, and listens to his customer's needs. I really am not sure how an agent could be any better. I give Joel my absolute highest recommendation!
Aric Plumley

Joel was extremely helpful throughout the grueling short sale process. He repeatedly took the time to answer my questions about the process as a whole as I was a first time buyer. Furthermore, when my lender failed to come through while in escrow, Joel secured an extension on the short sale approval letter and connected me with a lender with which he works closely that was able to close my deal within the allotted time period. I have recommended Joel to friends of mine that were also very satisfied.

Joel is absolutely amazing! My husband and I bought our first home in July 2016 after searching for a few months. I was very indecisive and wasn't quite sure what I wanted but with Joel's help we found the perfect home for our growing family. I would highly recommend him to all my family and friends.

I am a mortgage lender with 18+ years of industry experience. I have worked with Joel on many occasions and am always impressed with his real estate knowledge and customer service. Joel truly puts his client's needs first. I can honestly and strongly recommend Joel Kott as your real estate professional.
Joel Kott | Broker Associate
If only I could give more than 5 stars! Joel was awesome from start to finish. He has helped us buy two homes and sell one in the past few years and all three transactions felt effortless. And from a negotiation / pricing standpoint, Joel killed it! We got the houses we wanted in VERY tight markets and under budget. I can't praise Joel enough for taking care of me and my family.

Joel helped my wife and I buy our first home in August 2009. If I could sum the whole experience up in a few words it would be: excellent customer service. Joel is a very nice young man, and gave us all the attention we expected during this life changing decision. He is very knowledgeable, and very capable. He helped us beat out other offers, and still managed to negotiate a great price. Being a real estate broker myself who specializes in property management, I continue to rely on Joel's expertise when it comes to buying and selling real estate. He is truly an expert in his field, and would highly recommend his services to anyone buying or selling property.

Joel helped my husband and I buy our first house and I can't be more thankful for his great work. He made a process we were both somewhat nervous about very easy and comfortable. Prior to our search he made sure he fully understood exactly what we were looking for and only showed us houses that fully met our criteria. Upon showing us multiple houses he was extremely honest about the house, area, etc. He made sure we were fully aware of the pros and cons of each house and helped ensure we made a fully informed decision. Joel was also extremely responsive during every aspect of our purchasing process, which was very important to me as I tend to have a lot of questions. He was honest and up front throughout the entire process, making it much easier and relaxing for us. I am very appreciative of all of Joel's help during a very exciting and nerve racking time in our lives and would recommend him to anyone.
