We have used Dean to conduct and close 3 transactions for us over the last 12+ years. He is professional and always available for questions or concerns when we call him. Dean is realistic and we know when he advises us with anything we trust him wholeheartedly. We are grateful for our professional and personal relationship with him. After all of these years and business we have done with him, we also value him as a friend!
Dean is Knowledgeable, Professional, Available, Accessible and Totally in Touch throughout the entire process.
Dean Lueck did an amazing job selling the house. He brought an offer that was $100,000 greater than any prior home sold in the neighborhood. Also, he obtained a selling price that was over $100,000 greater than what other agents predicted they could get. He negotiated the best price and optimal conditions for the sell. Without reservations, I would recommend him to anyone.
Dean is incredibly hard working, knowledgeable, and detail oriented. He truly understood what we were looking for, and most importantly, always listened to us and respected our needs. He did an amazing job, stepping up, and securing this house for us, through a challenging transaction. We'd absolutely love to work with him again the next time we buy or sell a home.
Dean is the best agent I ever had. He helped us in buying our first home. He is very knowledgeable, honest, trustworthy, patient, and friendly. He works hard and acts promptly. He has an exceptional skill to communicate with other agents and work out the best deal for you. I also worked with other agents to buy homes in other area, but Dean is the best!
He is truly a one stop shop and referred us to his loan officer, floor guy, painter, handy man, etc. and made sure they all took good care of us. I highly recommend Dean for anything Real Estate related. Good service is hard to find these days and Dean has far exceeded my expectations on both occasions.
We received the most professional experience in selling our home. Within a short time where pictures and a video were done and Dean Lueck launched his campaign and our home was under contract in 12 days. We sold our home and closed escrow in 30 days with an all cash offer and our home sold more per square foot than ever sold before in Crystal Cove. Dean Lueck is hands down the best in the business. What an experience.
He is by (by far) the best and most professional realtor that we have ever experienced; tirelessly showed us properties in an area where we hoped to reside and was always available to answer questions and give unbiased advice. I will use Dean again for our next real estate transaction and would highly recommend his services.
Over the years, Dean has helped my family and I buy 4 homes and sell 2 homes. I think he's one of the very best in the country. Dean has the unusual ability to be highly professional, yet completely down-to-earth and everything he does is top notch. There is no way that I would want to work with any other real estate person, ever. He’s that good.
Dean Lueck is the finest real estate agent I have ever worked with. His upbeat professionalism was inspiring to watch. Always going the extra mile with an optimistic 'can do' attitude. Results oriented with highest ethical standards, I would recommend him to any friend without reservation.
Dean and Kristen provided absolutely outstanding customer care. I will use Dean to buy and sell every home in my family's future, without question. We sold during the economic downturn but ended up with over a dozen offers above asking price and market value after only being on the market for a few days. Can't say enough great things about Dean!
We are happy to provide the highest recommendation for Dean Lueck. He is not just a real estate agent, he is a business man. He is a consummate professional with a very in-depth knowledge of the southern California real-estate market. Do not hesitate to put your trust in Dean Lueck. You will not be disappointed.
For 3 long years, my daughter and I have waited to sell our home. After 6 other agents, we are truly grateful that you were able to finalize the sale. The results speak for themselves: multiple offers with $100K above ask as the closing price. Beyond your professionalism, your team is caring, personable, trustworthy, hardworking and willing to go the extra mile – 'good people'.
Dean's track record speaks for itself. He has excelled even in challenging years due to his unique ability to get things done when others fail. He has meticulously handled 10 real estate transactions for my family over the years. He is the best real estate agent I have ever encountered. Highly recommend him.
This is our second transaction with Dean and his team. He has, once again, exceeded our expectations! Dean is the consummate professional and possesses an intimate knowledge of the Southern California real estate market. His personable approach allows Dean to develop a relationship with his clients which helps to make the stressful transaction of buying or selling a home a pleasurable experience. We will recommend Dean to anyone looking for their next move in real estate!
Dean's experience and attention to all details during all the phases of purchasing a home - before, during, and even after are second to none. He's is a true professional.
Dean Lueck and Laura Cowie did an exceptional job and were extremely professional in assisting us in selling our home this year. They were nothing short of exceptional! Guiding us as to when the best time to sell our home to staging it properly, facilitated a full price offer in less than 24 hours!
Dean had complete knowledge and absolute optimism in the sale of our home. Everything he suggested and followed through with resulted in a very quick and successful sale. He is professional, smart, accessible and communicated with us in every step of the sale. We highly recommend Dean Lueck!
The only reason we got our home was because we worked with Dean. Dean's knowledge, relationships and reputation in Orange County helped us find a home in less than two months (nearly unheard of in this market). Dean helped guide us through the entire process, and his innate knowledge of the industry helped us to make informed, smart decisions. We are thrilled to be in our new home, but will miss working closely with Dean! He has our business forever.
