REVIEWS

We had an immediate need to sell off our property in Norwalk. And my brother stumbled upon this professional and hard working team at Pivot Homes. I was skeptical at first because I don’t have a lot of experience on dealing with properties and other things related to it. But Josh was very attentive in answering my questions and providing all the informations I need to get the process going. Even though he’s out of town or attending other clients. He managed to find time and make sure I get all the answers I need. He was very patient as well all throughout the process. Easy to talk to even there’s conflicts between our families. He’s so accommodating too. When I requested if I can have my relatives to be there to support me on the day of signing the final paperworks. And he agreed just to make sure I feel comfortable and safe at the same time. Overall, Josh and his team are so professional, efficient, knowledgeable, patient & accommodating. They were great and meet beyond my expectations. If you’re looking or selling a property. I highly recommend Pivot Homes and his team. I had a very pleasant and outstanding experience with them all throughout the process.

Joshua Tolar from Pivot Homes is everything you want in a realtor. He’s honest, respectful, knowledgeable, hardworking, and he has integrity. Most important, he provides results! Josh helped me achieve the impossible. With his assistance and guidance, I sold an inherited home, in a very short time frame, for above asking price. That’s results! He observes, he listens. Josh gave me options and we came to the right direction and plan for my situation. He explained everything thoroughly; great communication skills. For my tight deadline, Josh helped prepare a very aggressive calendar, and with his assistance and recommendations, we hit every goal. There was no pushing or pressure, just lots of encouragement and support. I did not do this alone! With Josh’s arsenal of specialists, consisting of a contractor/painter, metal-removal person, junk-removal person and cleaning crew, we were able to empty, prepare and list the house in 3 weeks. His team even assisted me with an estate sale. Josh’s dream team was positive, respectful, kind and hardworking (shout out to Alyse and Alice). Josh and the team helped clear cabinets, fill boxes, move out furniture, organize, and so much more. I received help where I needed, and when I needed. It’s what they do, from the heart. Everyone connected to Pivot Homes, including the escrow agent, was professional and went above and beyond all expectations. Josh listed, showed and negotiated a successful sale that benefited both the seller and buyer. Win-win! The whole process was a whirlwind, exhilarating and satisfying experience! I cannot recommend, nor thank, Josh and Pivot Homes enough. I love their passion and energy, and I am proud to be part of their ongoing success story!

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Josh (Joshua) Tolar at Pivot Homes for close to two decades, and he continues to impress me with his professionalism, intelligence, and genuine care for his clients. As a Senior Escrow Officer and Owner of an independent escrow company with over 27 years in the industry, I’ve worked with countless professionals, and Josh stands out as one of the very best. He is the kind of person who always goes the extra mile, not because he has to, but because he truly wants the best outcome for everyone he serves. He is trustworthy, knowledgeable, and an exceptional human being. I wholeheartedly recommend Josh and Pivot Homes.

I have had the privilege in working with Josh over at Pivot on 2 different occasions over the course of 3 years. I purchased 2 homes from them as rentals and I have to say it was a very easy and hassle free process. Josh and his team was honest and straight forward with no fluff. They did exactly what they said they would do and even helped us along in the escrow process. Answered every single questions, addressed all our concerns and even helped us find some tenants in one of our homes. I look forward at another chance at working with them again.

We were referred to Josh at Pivot Homes by a family friend when we were considering selling a home ‘as-is’. From the start, Josh was knowledgeable, friendly, and easy to talk to. He took the time to explain our options clearly and helped us understand what the process of selling a home as-is really looks like. At no point did we feel pressured, which we really appreciated. It felt more like getting honest advice than a sales pitch. If you’re looking for a trustworthy real estate professional in Southern California, especially for an as-is property sale, we would definitely recommend Josh at Pivot Homes.

This company is wonderful. So knowledgeable about real estate.
Delia Lovato
Johs was Great! He is extremely knowledgeable about the "sell as is" program and made the process so easy and simple. I just shared with him what my selling and buying goals were and he helped me achive those goals. I was so glad i didnot have to interview so many agents, pay for all the advertising expnses and deal with all the open house events. And I told Josh my goals for the new home and he found the perfect house for us. In no time at all we were enjoying our new home. It was the best ever decision to go with Pivot;

When I met Josh Tolar of Pivot Homes, I liked him immediately. I was impressed by his technical knowledge when looking at the structural and mechanical aspects of properties. Josh is sensitive to your preferences and desires in a home search, I trust him implicitly. We very quickly found the nearly perfect place; and he was instrumental in assisting with the tedium of negotiations. This was my first home purchase, I was anxious, and having Josh on my “team” gave me confidence... I dubbed him "the Realtornator" :) He has been incredible at responding quickly, I often wonder if he ever takes a day off!

I purchased a house in Rancho Cucamonga at the end of February with Joshua T. from Pivot Homes. He was very knowledgeable and if I was worried about something that had to do with the house, he would find the time to talk to me, to reassure me. The sale went smoothly. I was a happy new homeowner.

Anthony at Pivot Homes helped me buy my first home and made the whole process much easier than I expected. He was patient, easy to work with, and always took the time to answer my questions and explain everything clearly. His knowledge of the local market and strong negotiation skills gave me a lot of confidence along the way. On top of that, he’s genuinely kind and never made me feel pressured. I’d highly recommend Anthony and Pivot Homes to anyone looking to buy a home, especially first-time buyers.

I own and operate a real estate brokerage in the Temecula area and rarely write reviews about my fellow agents but am making an exception in the case of the guys over at Pivot homes. I represented a home buyer who is a good friend and really wanted them to have a good experience. We found a listing by Pivot Homes in Menifee which was a property Pivot had purchased and renovated. I worked closely with Josh and he did an outstanding job communicating with our team throughout the entire process. My client found several items he felt needed repair and Pivot was very gracious in their response to us which my client appreciate. Their property updates and repairs were all top-notch which is extremely rare for a company that "flips" homes. They were honest and fair which is all we can hope for in business. If you are thinking of doing business with Josh and the team at Pivot, rest easy...they will do a good job and take care of you. Thanks!

Josh and Pivot made the process of selling a breeze. He was always available and got back to me quickly if I had any questions or concerns.

Benny, finds a way. We went about the offer/purchase of a new home in an incorrect and unadvised order before talking with Benny and Benny came in to clean up things and make a miracle out of our situation. If there's a way he will find it.
AJ Cruz
Gotta hand it to the Pivot team—they're top notch. Selling my place in Los Angeles was not easy given its condition. I reached out to a few of those "we buy houses" companies, but they lowballed me left and right. I remembered getting a letter from Pivot, so I figured I'd give them a shot. Josh and Anthony showed up immediately to check out the house, and I could tell right away that they were very honest and professional. They ended up giving me a fair offer and on top of that, they're licensed realtors so they were able to help me buy a new condo in Long Beach. The whole process was smooth and they were honest, professional and always kept me in the loop. Plus when moving day rolled around, they didn't just disappear, they were right there hauling boxes and furniture with me. Big thanks to them for making it happen, and I'd absolutely recommend them to anyone looking to sell.

Josh and his team are a pleasure to work with in selling our home. Their communication was consistent and met all our high expectations. Josh and his team provided the support and guidance needed to make a quick sale and most importantly, a fast closing. They got us more money than we were asking for as well. So professional and their expertise made this an amazing experience, beyond our expectations. Thank you Josh and Anthony.

When looking for some options on selling our home, we came across Josh at Pivot. Time being a factor, Josh and Anthony went over some options after finding out our needs. Without ever being pushy, the whole Pivot team was very considerate of our needs and helping us find the best alternative for us. At Pivot, they do stand behind making it as easy as possible for your transition. They did for us. We couldn't have asked for a more efficient, friendly and professional company. Thank you for making our transition seamless.

I am a tough client. If the Ts aren’t crossed and something feels off, I’ll walk away from the deal. You can’t bring me back. Josh picked up on this immediately and, from that moment on, was very clear and honest about the process. Answered my many questions at all hours of the day. I had no delusions about the price range I would get which helps greatly in the process. With that being said, though, I was very pleased with what I was offered. This was an investment for me, as well, and my money tripled from what I bought it at. It was fair in my opinion. When they say no fees, they mean no fees. I paid nothing. My new house closed in just under 2 months. As smooth as smooth gets. They bought as is with no hassles. They were also very respectful of my privacy. Can’t say enough about Josh and the crew. Highly recommended and five stars all the way.

Anthony was a great broker. From showing us the property to navigating our deal, he was super attentive and accommodating. Anthony gave us plenty of insight as first time homebuyers and I never felt like he talked down to me or my wife. He was very good about communicating and returning correspondences in a timely manner. Overall, very helpful and I would definitely like to work with him again if we find ourselves on the market for another home.

I really appreciated how punctual and thorough Josh was in replying back to my questions. He really rose and exceeded my expectations, especially while dealing with unique challenges (such as selling long distance and with tenants). Would one hundred percent use him and Pivot again.

My Experience with was seamless. They bought my property and were instrumental in the purchase of my new home all at the same time. Kept me very updated in every aspect of the process. They established a rapport with the seller of my new home including a whole house warranty. There was very little or no out of pocket expense to me and the whole thing happened quickly. They did it all and just great people.
