A lot goes into home buying, who knew!? Nadia Colucci & Anne Benitez - that's who! Nadia came highly recommended from some friends of ours in North County. We met with her and began searching for our first home. She helped us sell a condo we inherited and made the transition to buying our first home very smooth. We felt so lucky to have her and Anne available to answer our many questions and address both my wife and I’s individual needs throughout the process. We always felt that they did a great job with negotiations and thoroughly explained the many facets of the process to both my wife and I. Our new place in Cardiff is exceeding our expectations every day and we look forward to raising our son here in the North County at last!

Anne and Nadia were true professionals. We really felt like they were looking out for us through the whole process. There was no question they wouldn't answer, making us feel supported, informed and confident at every step. They are thorough and stop at nothing to get you the home you deserve. Anne and Nadia are a rare combination of kind, honest and caring people who work extremely hard.

Nadia Colucci is the best!! Tom and I were anxious about selling my late sister’s San Diego condo long-distance from Ann Arbor. We had questions and concerns and didn’t know what to do first. No problem for Nadia. Once she became our realtor we knew we were in the hands of a knowing, patient, and compassionate partner in the sale of the condo. She led us through the process, explaining (through phone calls and e-mails) what was required of us and how all of this could be done electronically, and always encouraging us that the sale would happen even in these tough economic times. The end result more than met our expectations. We are indebted to her and will always be grateful for her service to us.

Nadia, You are professional and very aggressive in only the best way… You never gave up when we had little setbacks and you were able to find the right people quickly that fit our tough situation. I doubt many of your clients have time constraints like ours, and you made everything happen with time to spare. You took care of all the little details efficiently and allowed me to focus on the part I had to do… I will highly recommend you every chance I get and thank you so much for making it such a pleasure.

As a 22 year old, first time homebuyer, and new to the area, I was VERY fortunate to have found Anne. She walked me through the entire home buying process, educating me and keeping me well informed at every step, which helped to keep me confident throughout the entire process, which as many know, especially for first time homebuyers like me, buying a home can be scary and there are a lot of unknowns. So, I really appreciated the fact that she made sure I was up to speed and comfortable with each step, as a result, I found myself having fun throughout the entire process. I also appreciated the fact that she did not show me homes outside of my budget, and she also took the time to research each community to ensure that I was also looking at homes in safe neighborhoods. All in all, Anne really went above and beyond to get to know me as an individual, which directly led to me finding the perfect place for me to call home. Throughout the entire process, I knew Anne was looking out for me and my best interests.  I HIGHLY recommend Anne and Nadia to anyone who is looking to find their dream home and to have fun throughout the entire home buying process. They are very professional, knowledgeable, and talented realtors, who really go above and beyond for their clients.

Anne Benitez and Nadia Colucci are the most professional and hardworking real estate team that we have ever had the pleasure of working with. They treated my family like we were their own and made us feel like we were their first priority throughout the entire process. Whether you’re buying or selling your home, you can be sure that you are in the best hands possible. They are professional, ethical, easy to work with, and most importantly, they make what can be a stressful time in one’s life a whole lot more enjoyable! Thanks so much!!

Making the decision to sell my home was stressful however Nadia and Anne were an absolute joy to work with, they were not only incredibly professional but made the process easy and actually fun. They handled EVERYTHING and I worried about nothing! They took pictures, did the marketing, handled the tenant that was in the house and kept me calm.I do believe that because of their professionalism and I was offered more than the asking price. I could not be happier and would recommend North Compass Realty 1000%. When buying my next home there is no one else I will work with… Thank you Nadia Colucci and Anne Benitez!!

I met Nadia Colucci from a referral upon my relocation to San Diego in June 2009. I was under a lot of pressure to find a home quickly or end up renting. Nadia went to work on the type of house I wanted in three residential areas I chose in the San Diego area. I was very appreciative and comfortable with Nadia’s professionalism, honesty, and candidness in the selection process. Nadia’s knowledge of the local area and real estate market conditions was invaluable to me. Even though Nadia was a referral to me I wouldn’t hesitate at all in teaming with her again to purchase my next home.

Amanda and I could not have been more pleased with the advice, accessibility, and professional service provided by Anne and Nadia.  This was our first home purchase and we had a million questions about all the mysteries of real estate.  With such a large investment, we really had our guard up, but quickly realized that was not required with Anne and Nadia. At every step, their advice was in our best interest.  They gave us honest feedback and supported us when we had to lean hard on the sellers to meet our purchase needs.  Having them both work in tandem was great, we never waited more than a few minutes for an answer to a question.  We cannot wait to recommend Anne and Nadia to friends or hit them up for our next purchase!

Kevin and Amanda Mazzella

We highly recommend Nadia, she’s extremely knowledgeable, friendly, energetic and, above all, hardworking & honest. We have bought and sold multiple houses with Nadia and don’t hesitate to refer her to our friends and family when they are looking for a Real Estate Agent in San Diego. Shea wants what’s best for her clients and won’t stop looking until she finds exactly the right option for your family.

Jim & Shannon Van Natter

We bought our home in North County San Diego from across the country. To do that we needed a real estate broker who we could trust completely, who knows the area as a life-long native, and who is always responsive and willing to go the extra mile to make our purchase go smoothly. Nadia Colucci was all that and much more. Professional, friendly, helpful, respected in the industry, she made a difficult task easy. Exactly what we wanted. We couldn’t be more pleased with our new home in Carlsbad.

It is with pleasure that my husband and I recommend Nadia and Anne for all of your real estate needs! They are hands down the best real estate agents we have ever encountered. We recently relocated to Southern California and through the years have bought and sold numerous properties.  In the past we have chosen to represent ourselves in both the buying and selling process, however the buying process proved to be much more complex in California.  We ultimately enlisted the help of the Nadia (who was the listing agent of the home we ended up purchasing).  She went out of her way to explain each step to us and make us feel comfortable.  Everything was seamless and beyond organized.  Communication simply could not have been any better.  This team is professional, personable, kind and EXTREMELY KNOWLEDGEABLE!   We would not even consider using any other agent the next time we are buying or selling!

As an out of state resident and accidental landlord, I've been looking for an opportunity to sell my condo for years. After having unsuccessfully listed the property a year ago with my property manager, it was time for a change. Being in Texas, we were unsure how we were going to pick another agent. Luckily, we were introduced to Nadia by family in San Diego and after a phone interview talking strategy, made her our agent. We certainly couldn't have done better. We decided to do an extensive renovation due to changing market conditions and tastes and Nadia helped tremendously during this 2-month process. Being out of the area, we heavily relied on her to be available for appointments and schedule crafts. After the work was complete, she staged the condo with her own furnishings. The pictures that were taken looked straight out of a Design magazine and were in keeping with her original strategy. Not only did Nadia expertly list our property, she helped us to get and close an offer that was CONSIDERABLY over asking price.  

Chris and Carrie Gomez

Nadia was the absolute best we could ask for! It was our first time buying a house and she was very patient with us. She was our proverbial tour guide, taking the time to walk us through the intricacies of buying and making us feel comfortable with our decision. From putting us in touch with a great lender for our loan, to being there when the appraiser showed up, she continually minimized our effort to keep the ball rolling smoothly. We cannot imagine going through any real estate transaction without Nadia by our side, protecting our interests and fighting for us. We will sing Nadia’s praises from Chula Vista to Oceanside for anyone who is smart enough to listen.

My husband and I couldn’t have been happier to work with Nadia. Not only did she facilitate the sale of our home quickly and efficiently, she did so with the utmost care and exceptional round the clock service. Our move was especially difficult due to the fact that I was nine months pregnant and we hadn’t found a new home to buy! We negotiated a rent back with the buyers, which gave us the extra time we needed to purchase our new “dream home”! We highly recommend Nadia to all our friends and family: she has our business for life!

Nick & Katie Foley

Nadia was a great asset to us in the entire process of finding the right property, realizing what we could do to improve the property and the entire purchase and escrow process. Nadia was there for us throughout all of the inspections and would offer us her expertise when needed. She shared her knowledge and recommendations and guided us along the way with her vast experience. When it came time to negotiate, Nadia did everything in her power to get us the best deal and we walked away with a great new home with huge smiles! Thank you Nadia for all of your hard work.

We were referred to Nadia & Anne by our son-in-law.  We were in the market for a home in North County, after living for 40 years in East County (Spring Valley/Rancho San Diego).  Because this was a BIG move for us, we were very particular about several features:  first, the new home had to be a single story (turns out those can be hard to find), it had to be in a desirable (and affordable for us) neighborhood that showed pride-of-ownership and where property values were steadily increasing, and finally, it had to be within 10 minutes of the freeway and not more than 12 miles inland.  We also had some specific "must haves as well as some "restrictions" for the interior/exterior of the home.  Anne and Nadia built a profile for us to include exactly what we were looking for in this 'new' home, and immediately began featuring properties on the website they set up for us.  We looked at dozens and dozens of homes, and after a year-long search, we finally found the house we wanted.  Despite all the homes we "rejected", and the changes we made to our "must haves", neither Anne nor Nadia never made us feel that we were being unreasonable or too "picky".  In fact, they appreciated our being so specific about what we wanted, as it helped them narrow the area to search in, as well as narrowing which homes to select. They were supportive all along the way.  They communicated frequently with us, and were always extremely punctual in returning our calls, texts, or e-mails.  We ended up selling our previous home at the exact same time we were purchasing the new home, and Anne worked seamlessly with our selling agent to coordinate such details as close-of-escrow dates, rent-backs, etc.  Both Nadia and Anne have a great grasp of the North County real estate market and are very professional agents who will assist you in finding exactly what you want, no matter how long it takes!!  We are so grateful that they stuck with us, for an entire year, until we found the right home in the exact neighborhood we wanted.

Nadia and Anne were phenomenal!  They assisted us a with a quasi-estate sale (the HOA prohibited an actual one). Their due diligence found a buyer for furniture and jewelry that exceeded our expectations. We were in Northern California and they kept us apprised on all facets of sale like we were locals.  This was the easiest sale we ever had, which attests to their superb professionalism and marketing expertise!
