What Our Clients Are Saying:

If you like to support local businesses, Swell Property should be your first stop for any real estate needs. David Miller and his team of agents know the market well, but they are also super cool to work with, which makes it fun. They sold my friends house in less than 2 weeks!

I have used Swell property for several years for the Management of my beachfront units. Dana consistently provides excellent results, timely reporting and most importantly- long-term, well-qualified tenants.

Michael Dreebin

Rental

We're long-time Encinitas residents and have used now used Swell Property to sell a house, buy house, and to find & rent us a house when we were in-between. I've recommended Swell to a number of my friends, so thought it appropriate to leave a review here as well. Swell has an extremely strong knowledge of the local market and the ability to expertly guide you through whatever situation you might encounter. I've been really impressed with everyone on the team that I've interacted with; our agent team (Tim and Allison Shepstone) the owner (Erik), and our Property Manager (David).

Christian Boomer

Seller

We had the pleasure of working with Alissa while looking for a home in the Temecula area. She was incredibly patient with us being very picky and always went the extra mile for us, including into some remote locations off the beaten path! Very friendly and caring with our kiddos as well even though they were a bit of a disaster at times! We would highly recommend Alissa and the team at Swell, it was a wonderful experience. We will definitely use them for any future needs!

Meredith Kuiper

Buyer

Kudos to David Miller and his team at Swell Properties. As a client and a person who worked for years in the North County real estate community, I’m impressed by the personalized care and excellent customer service offered by David and his group. In a business where customer service is paramount, the complete client care, from sale to purchase to property management, Swell Properties is the best!

Nancy Hamzey

Property Management Client

I trusted Swell for 5 years managing my rental property. When it came time to sell, it was a no brainer to have them list my Encinitas home. We ultimately sold for 115% of the asking price. Five star doesn’t quite say it here!

Dana Clymer is an awesome property manager at Swell Property. She is professional, responsive and patient. I appreciate the ease of communication as she follows up or takes the proactive approach when dealing with any issues. I've worked with several property managers in OC and SD, Dana is one of the best!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Swell lives up to their name and beyond! From my first interaction with Tyler to discuss property management, I knew I was with the right company. A meeting and tour of the home were arranged immediately, where I was also able to meet Dana. From then, anything that was needed to rent the house was handled! From market research and comps, photos, advertising, vetting tenants, interfacing with the HOA, and fielding myriad questions from an anxious homeowner, Tyler has absolutely excelled. He continues to be communicative, informative, available and a really nice human! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Swell to anyone seeking their services.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a great experience working with Kevin Osborn from Swell Property as my Mom's Realtor. Downsizing and selling a longtime home can be emotional and overwhelming, but Kevin handled everything with patience and professionalism.  From the very beginning, he took the time to explain each step clearly, making sure my mom felt comfortable with every decision. Kevin understood that this was a major life transition and approached things that way with my Mom. He went above and beyond to make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible, coordinating details and keeping us informed every step of the way.

Thanks to Kevin's expertise, my Mom's home sold quickly and at a great price. More importantly, she felt supported and cared for throughout the entire journey.

I would definitely recommend Kevin to anyone, especially families helping senior loved ones navigate the sale of a home.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am over 80 years of age, and my realtor, Kevin Osborn, was instrumental in helping me downsize from a 2500 sq. ft. home to one of 1200 sq. ft. in just 6 weeks. In the downsize process, Kevin had tremendous resources for consignment, donation and out right sale of my belongings. More importantly, Kevin approached the process with patience, kindness, understanding and, at times, humor as well.

Kevin’s knowledge of the market was thorough, and his resources for staging and marketing my home led to a smooth transition into my new home. Ultimately, Kevin expertly negotiated with 3 interested buyers, which ensured that I received the maximum value for my home.

I wholeheartedly recommend my realtor, Kevin Osborn at Swell Property, for he handled every step of my move with compassion,  professionalism and integrity, thus  making a difficult process feel manageable and positive. Thank you, Kevin!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dana and her assistant, Tyler, have done a phenomenal job for us regarding the entire process of readying our two properties to put on the rental market.  Finding comps, doing professional photos, advertising, and finding and vetting the perfect tenants are all in their wheelhouse. They also take care of all aspects of the lease procedures including move-in and move-out operations. We are pleased with their professionalism and accountability and look forward to working with them again.
