Tony Elias

I HIGHLY recommend Tony Elias to sell your home. Prior to my meeting with him, I was planning on hiring a competing agent. However, I had already scheduled an interview with Tony and decided to keep the appointment. When we met, I was impressed with how thorough his market research of the surrounding area was as well as his expertise in market predictions. He came prepared with visual aides that clearly demonstrated the numbers in a way I could understand and he backed up his sales approach with data—which I greatly appreciated. I could tell he possessed the experience and the data to ensure a good listing price for the home and to negotiate offers that would maximally benefit me (the seller). Needless to say, I signed him on.

Once the sales agreement was signed, he remained in close communication and he was very transparent with me regarding the offers we received. I appreciated his expertise, as I wasn’t sure what to expect given the current market. Unfortunately, our chosen buyer ran into some last minute problems with their lender. Tony discussed our available options with me (again, being very transparent) and we decided to work with the buyer instead of cancelling the contract. He then worked hard to ensure our chosen path worked out well. Tony was relentless—he worked with their lender, escrow, and other agents and was able to push the process through to resolution in less than a week (this process usually takes 2-4 weeks). In case the deal fell through, he already had a second buyer lined up with an offer, ready for me to accept. In the end, though, the original buyer was able to move ahead with their purchase and we successfully closed.

Through the process, Tony was incredible—I felt like he was my personal trusted home sales adviser. His associate (Jay) assisted in the process and was equally professional, transparent, and happy to assist. I ended up having a delay in my mail getting forwarded, so Jay personally went to the house at my request to collect the items and then mail them.

Overall, I am very, very pleased with Tony and his team. I HIGHLY recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell in the San Diego area. He is an expert in the market and will work VERY hard for you. I would ABSOLUTELY hire him again without hesitation.

Tony Elias was recommended by a good friend. I enjoyed getting to know him through the process of selling my condo. The process was done professionally and with clear transparency. I would recommend him with his many years of real estate knowledge. He is the nicest man you’ll ever meet.

Tony was able to sell my house for way more than expected and in about the time frame he said he needed to sell it. Tony has amazing communication skills, and is very knowledgeable. I was able to sit down with a handful of realtors, and Tony was miles ahead of his competitors. His record really shows. Great job Tony !!

Tony and his exceptional team helped my husband and I purchase our first home. Before we met him, we were not seeing a real return on the enormous amount of effort we poured into finding the right home and having our offers accepted.

It felt like the stars aligned when we started working with Tony. We contacted him because he was the list agent for a home we dreamt of owning. He arranged for us to see the property on the same day and next thing we knew, we were in escrow. He was extremely professional and took such good care of both us and the seller. His team streamlined the escrow process and it really did just breeze by. We especially appreciated Jay’s help! Tony and Jay went above and beyond at every stage to make the process as smooth as possible and to ensure any + all questions were addressed. The entire team is incredibly dedicated to what they do and it shows!

Words cannot explain how grateful we are! Thank you!!!

I am an absentee owner and found Tony on the web. I was very very pleased with his prompt, attentive professionalism. Tony and his team were "on it" at all times. They always resounded ASAP to any of my questions. Tony was honest in his analysis of the various proposals that came through and never gave up on the ultimate goal of getting top dollar for my property. I am very appreciative and would highly recommend Tony to anyone. Thank you Tony and Team.

Tony and staff went over and beyond in the sale of my Son's condo. Tony and staff were always responsive to our needs including helping us through floor repair and re carpeting. This is the realtor you want in your court!

Tony performed beyond my expectations. Everything he said he would do was done with an extra flourish. His guidance through an initial escrow that was struggling to a second buyer with whom we successfully completed the sale, was masterful. Professionalism with a human touch best describes Tony. From first contact to the close of our $1,400,000 sale, Tony and his team were the BEST!

I had a complicated legal situation when I decided to sale my father’s house. In one month Tony and his associates sold my dads house and closed escrow. On top of that I got $30,000 over asking. Tony strategized the best way to get the most money and it worked. I didn’t have to do a thing. They have a team that provides everything you will need for a seamless sale.

We had a good experience selling our house with Tony as the selling agent. He provided good input on what to fix and not fix prior to the sale and suggested a successful pricing strategy. After receiving multiple offers after the first weekend Tony negotiated a final sales price significantly above the listing with minimal contingencies. We had good remote communication during escrow and were able to close three weeks after the house was put on the market. Overall an easy, successful experience.

Tony Elias ( and Jay and Nicole) are all very professional but at the same time very warm and friendly. You know you're working with Pros but it seems like you're working with friends. I interviewed 5 real-estate people but Tony had the best advertising program. We ended up getting exactly the price we advertised for. Tony and Jay kept me informed every step of the way and Nichole kept me up to date on my paper work ( and there is a lot of paper work ). I can't imagine any real-state person doing more for you than them. By the way this is my honest opinion and I tend to see the glass half empty and this one is more than full.

Tony and his team sold our condo in 4 days!
His staff was very professional and kept us informed through the whole process. We also got an email update on how many showings we had and the prospective buyers comments on the units overall decor and features. I picked Tony as he was very familiar with our properties building and amenities that were close buy. I give Tony and his team a 5 star rating PLUS. We would use him for any future real estate dealing in the San Diego area. THANK YOU and THANK YOUR TEAM!!
Best, M & D

Tony and his team were great at making the sale of our condo a smooth and easy process. He ensured that our condo was listed in the most professional manner. Tony was flexible with our family to change our timeline to ensure we could be completely moved out prior to listing the property. Tony was also incredibly responsive to our needs. All of this ultimately led to an above list price offer with a quick close. I would highly recommend Tony as a realtor if you want a smooth, easy, yet flexible process in the sale of your home.

Tony Elias was the very best realtor that I have ever used in my 64 years. He has excellent communication skills and was always available whenever I had questions or concerns. He absolutely knows the market and the value of each of his clients property. Tony listed my home for more than I thought it was worth and sold it in 3 days for 42K over asking. Tony’s value is in the advice he offered in how to get my home ready for market and what improvements should or should not be made. Tony also works with the very best people and we were able to close in only 18 days. Please if you need a realtor take time to speak with Tony Elias he is the very best in thee business!

After a failed attempt to sell my home with another realtor, I chose Tony Elias because he had recently sold another property in my community very quickly. I couldn't have been more pleased with my decision. Tony was professional, empathetic and enthusiastic about selling my home. The professionalism I experienced with him and his staff was beyond compare. I would highly recommend Tony Elias if you are considering selling your home.

My experience that jumps out with Tony Elias, is that he was willing to answer my screening questions directly, in a meaningful way. About six real estate agents, before Tony, did not make it past the first three min on the phone with me. Shameless sales tactics are a major turn-off. I actually felt dirty after talking to some of these shameless real estate salesmen. Tony must have good instincts on the phone, because he answered my questions directly, the first time. I simply wanted to hear the elevator speech, 30-90 seconds, on why he is special —minus any fluff. Many businesses, like a coffee shop, are quick to make the claim “worlds best cup of coffee,” however fewer actually can articulate in a meaningful way what separates them from the competition. Fewer still can deliver quality assured. Tony and his team essentially did both. I recommend a scheduled brief voice or video call to ask him about what’s most important to you.

"I've had Tony's help twice now selling my home. My first experience was went so well, I didn't even think about trying someone else. It's always a little overwhelming trying to look up rates, trends, and home values to get started, but both times I did, Tony's knowledge in these areas gave me much better information than I could find on my own! Both homes sold for very high market values, and within about 10 days with his aggressive marketing plans. The main reason why I chose to use Tony again was that he definitely seemed to be looking out for my best interest in every step of the process. He explains things well and offers suggestions and clarifications when I needed them. In both home sales, there were suggestions he made that benefited me (and not the sale price of the home, so no benefit to him) that showed me his true character and what type of person he is. Tony is absolutely my first pick when I need help selling my home and finding a new one in the future, and would definitely recommend him to my family and friends."
