Don't Take My Word For It.....My Clients Say It Better Than I Ever Could

And Since 80% Of My Business Comes From Past Clients And Personal Referrals,
Maybe They’re Onto Something....

ERNEST AND TIANA CHUANG

"We just closed as a Buyer on a Short Sale with Tiffany representing us as our agent; words cannot even begin to express how great she is. Tiffany is everything that an amazing real estate agent should be. An EXPERT in short sales and the entire home buying process. She led my wife and I through what I would call a "difficult" short sale transaction.... I quote "difficult" because honestly the seller's agent/team of the transaction was absolutely horrendous, to the point where it seemed like they didn't care if they closed the transaction for their own client or not (It was even suggested by them that we "look for another house.") Tiffany not only lead us through the process - step by step - never frustrated with our endless and detailed questions - but she also took control of the transaction and guided the sellers agent through closing as well! She is an extremely aggressive negotiator, looking out for our best interests at all times and she managed to get us a fair price on the house even though the seller's agents had convinced the seller that "highest and best" was the way to choose a Short Sale buyer.  Tiffany truly is a "bulldog in real estate" -  she is loyal, tough, and fighting for your best interests  throughout - and even after the close of escrow! I wholeheartedly recommend Tiffany Abbiate to represent you for your next  - and subsequent - real estate transaction; whether it be to purchase your first home, a move up home - or your dream home....TIFFANY ABBIATE Is the best agent for the job all around!   |  Ernest  and Tiana Chuang, 4S Ranch

JAMIE RAMOS

"If you are looking for a cookie cutter real estate agent, then Tiffany is not your girl. She is the absolute BEST at what she does - and her countless years in the industry shine through clearly. She is beyond talented and is an expert in her field. With Tiffany on your side, every transaction is personal and important; She wants the best for all of her clients and will make sure that you get what you deserve. With every transaction being unique, she will walk you through the process and make sure that you understand what the status is and what the next step will be....what is expected of you as her client and what the potential roadblocks could be. She has the problems solved proactively - BEFORE they become problems! She's very reliable and I trusted her exclusively to help me make all of the right decisions for my family.  I will definitely use her again when it's time to buy my dream home!  |  Jaime Ramos

STEVE B.

"I had the pleasure of working with Tiffany on a recent Real Estate Transaction. I don’t know how I ever would have navigated through the complexities without her expertise, knowledge and connections and relationships that she has spent years building. She guided me every step of the way insuring my interests were first and foremost. It was very evident Tiffany’s knowledge, negotiating skills, strategic thinking , proactive intentions and actions and attention to detail were second to none.

I will forever be in her debt. Thanks again Tiffany, If I ever have the need in the future you will be my first call!"  |  Steve B

RICK CONRAD

"Well...okay...Tiffany is just AWESOME! We made the decision very late in 2012 to sell our home....Without any hope of closing before the end of the year when the tax-forgiveness law expired. We contacted her office and thankfully, Tiffany worked some kind of magic that we still don't understand. She had our home sold, short sale approved and closed in a record 3 months! Not only did we close in December, 2012, but Tiffany worked with BofA's Co-Op program to get us the maximum monetary incentive. We began this process with skepticism, but this ended up being one of the smoothest real estate transactions we've ever had thanksto Tiffany. Whenever we're ready to jump back into the housing market, we absolutely will not hesitate to contact her immediately to assist us  |   Rick Conrad


JOHN REEVES, Realtor

"A dear friend and neighbor of mine had bought home at the top of the market in 2006. She was nearing retirement and her income was about to drastically change as she left the workforce to enjoy the golden years. The future looked bleak for her because she couldn’t break away to retire with a ridiculously high mortgage payment on a home that was deeply underwater. Her exasperation was evident every time we spoke and all she wanted to do was retire after giving 50 years of her life as a nurse. Expenses were mounting and she was starting to get behind on mortgage payments. The harassing phone calls from collectors began. It was tearing her apart and she needed help.

Enter Tiffany Abbiate…Tiffany exploded into action and quickly began the short sale process for her. Tiffany was exceptionally efficient, caring and responsive. She negotiated her short sale in half the expected time and made the process seamless and smooth. Her energy and dynamic persona kept sprits high and her optimism kept my neighbor happy at a hard time in her life. Tiffany Abbiate not only demonstrated her proactive mindset, organizational skill, proficiency, and attention to detail; she showed that she understands humility, ethics, and what it truly means to change a life forever. My neighbor successfully completed the short sale and was able to move on with her life and is happy, content, and of course... ready to finally retire!!!. A true testament to Tiffany’s ability to turn straw into gold. If you want to sell a home, buy a home, or need to short sell. Tiffany should be your first and only call!"   | John Reeves, Realtor

DEREK MCCLINTOCK | THE LENDING COMPANY

“Tiffany is one of the hardest working and best negotiating Realtors in the business today. Her work ethic is honestly second to none. I deal with A LOT of Realtors every day and I would have to say that Tiffany ranks up there as one of the best around. I gladly - and with the utmost confidence - refer my clients to Tiffany Abbiate. If you have any questions at all about real estate, especially Short Sales, she is the woman to ask - Do not trust anyone else!!”  |  Derek McClintock, Loan Officer

LUANNE WHITTAKER

"Tiffany helped me through the stressful process of selling my home. She has umatched experience and skill in this industry unlike any other real estate agent. I had such confidence and reassurance that she was always protecting my best interests and was confident that the transcation was taken care of every step of the way. Through the process I felt as if I were her only client. She has a work ethic bar none and a reputation in the industry as being a very persuasive and persistent negotiator; exactly what you need and want when buying and selling real estate! In the future, I will never work with another real estate agent, and I take every opportunity to refer her to everyone I know. You will be in the best hands...."  |   Luanne Whittaker

SCOTT AND TRACY

“Tiffany came recommended to us by a friend and she did not disappoint. She helped guide us through a difficult sale of an investment property. Her communication was always clear and timely and she made herself accessible to us at anytime. She does not miss any details and was extremely aggressive in working on our behalf. Her counsel and ongoing support were top-of-the-line and I will not hesitate to use her again and recommend her to all of our friends and family! |  Scott and Tracy

MICHAEL E.

"Tiffany Abbiate truly knows the intricacies involved in short sales. I can not recommend highly enough the importance of having a very experienced short sale agent to handle your short sale; I made the decision not to use the" neighborhood agent" as that is not what was important for my situation. Any real estate agent can sell a house - very few can negotiate and pull together an intricate short sale transaction as Tiffany Abbiate can.
 
Her experience was shown to me over and over during my short sale proces...and proved to be pertinant throughout the transaction - especially in the negotiations with my lenders.  From the start, she was able to lay out the process, not sugar coating it to get my business, but rather provide various options with their potential benefits and pitfalls. Always quick to provide answers to questions that came up during the process, she never made me feel like I was a burden asking "newbie" questions or asking for clarifications.

Once offers starting coming in, Tiffany's expertise came shining through. She really had to hand-hold the selling agent - even though the buyer's agent had 25 years of real estate experience, she really didn't know her way around a short sale. Tiffany made sure everything was done properly and that my interests were always protected.

Tiffany's connections within the various lending communities proved valuable as she was very proactive and knowledgeable in dealing with my lenders.  She knew what their tolerances were, what their hot points were, and how to get the best deal for me as their client. If we had accepted the first offer that Wells Fargo and Citibank put out there in response to the buyers offer, I would have been in trouble. Instead, Tiffany knew what we could get away with to make sure the short sale lenders were happy and I was protected at closing.
 
I ended up being able to walk away with zero out of pocket. Tiffany was able to negotiate any "settlements" to the banks in the deal to be paid by the buyer. The process of a short sale is stressful enough; make sure you have a team that has gone through the process hundreds of times like Tiffany Abbiate - and make sure that you get the best end result possible like I did."  |  Michael E.

TONY AMBRE, NORTH AMERICAN TITLE

"Tiffany is terrific at negotiating 'Short Sales'. She is a skilled Realtor and does a wondefrul job of helping her clients. I would recommend her to everyone!"  |  Tony Ambre, North American Title



TOBY AND KIM RUSSELL

"Tiffany was WONDERFUL to work with! My husband and I like many other people made a really bad decision and got in over our heads in the real estate market. I can't even put into words how grateful I am to have had Tiffany handle the sale of our home. She was so knowledgable, efficient and personable. I have friends that used inexperienced real estate agents and not only did their short sales take forever to close, they lost potential buyers along the way because of mistakes made by their agents and their lack of knowledge of the industry.

I am happy to say that Tiffany closed our sale quickly, efficiently and was always available when I called. She always took the time to explain things when I had questions....

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Tiffany, you would be crazy to pass her up!"  |  Toby and Kim Russell


KATHERINE LOWRY

“Tiffany's knowledge of real estate as a whole and her priceless relationships with a wide range of industry professionals makes her an asset to every one of her clients. She always keeps her clients updated, informed and on track. She clearly works hard for them to get the closing accomplished  - and to ensure her clients are taken care of every step of the way!"  | Katherine Lowry



CRYSTAL VALENCIA

"Tiffany was an incredible Real Estate Agent who consistently followed up with me and kept me informed of the status of our sale - every step of the way.. She is very personable and professional and had excellent communication. Even after a year  - after the transaction had closed - when I was trying to get a 1099 for the sale, she remembered me when I contacted her, answered my questions promptly, and followed up to make sure I was taken care of. I truly appreciated all her hard work..."  |  Crystal Valencia

LLOYD

Tiffany Abbiate did an absolutely outstanding job selling our single-family investment propertyin Alpine. Even though the house itself was relatively new (built in 2006) and in excellent condition, its remote location in rural East San Diego County, an unpaved road for the last mile, and high gas prices affecting commute, costs made the sale problematic.Tiffany  not only never faltered throughout the process, but resolved many difficult impediments throughout the complex short-sale process. Very importantly Tiffany provided timely updates ensuring we were always well-informed regarding the progress of the transaction. Everything about her process is first-rate and professional in every respect, Tiffany's attention to detail and referrals to attorneys and tax professionals to be sure that the client is fully informed about all aspects and potential effects of the transaction, etc. In short, we are extremely grateful and will absolutely recommend anyone who wants to be represented by the very best real estate professional |  Lloyd


MARISA MCBRIDE

"We couldn't have been happier with Tiffany in selling our home. We were in a situation where we needed to sell our home quickly and she was able to make that happen!! Where some short sales take months to close, she completed our sale in just 2 short months! In what could have been a traumatic and emotional experience, she made effortless. I will absolutely recommend her to everyone I know needing to buy or sell a home!"  |  Marisa McBride


RYAN SCHAEFFER | PROSPECT MORTGAGE

"Tiffany is one of the hardest working agents in San Diegor Real Estate; I’ve had the pleasure of working with her on many different transactions. Tiffany is excellent at communicating with all parties during a transaction and when problems arise she communicates with all parties to find a solution proactively. I recommend Tiffany to all my friends and family when they are considering listing their homes, I know Tiffany will get the job done and take care of them with the utmost integrity  |  Ryan Schaeffer
