Do We Sound Like a Cold & Boring Corporation?

We hope not! We are regular people just like you. We are real, we have feelings, we care, and no matter what, we always try to have fun! (What is the point otherwise?)

One more happy customer with this company. I actually did read all the reviews BEFORE I asked for their help and I fully understand why everyone is so happy with them. They remind me how businesses used to be; professional and actually interested in helping you. Always patient when answering questions, sometimes more than once, and timelines were met. I am very happy we found them. You won’t be disappointed giving them your business…

I can personally say John Medina Buys Homes is a calming trustful experience from Nathan "Home Buying Specialist" to Brian the "Client Care Coordinator". It was my first experience selling a home and well worth working with them . Brian listened to my concerns as far as timing for medical reasons. I had to arrange a certain date . The team was kind and understanding. Anything I had questions for Brian answered. I felt immediately comfortable with their professionalism. Brian stayed in touch throughout the whole process. The great part is they buy homes as is . You don't have to worry about anything else but, getting ready for your next home . They make the sell as simple and swift as possible. I most definitely recommend them if you want a fair explanation for your offer and an easy experience to the end of closing. Brian made sure we received our funds on the day as promised. I can honestly say they also don't push themselves on you. Which I appreciated because your making a huge change in your life. This is a team that makes sure it all gets done professionally.

I recently worked with the team at John Medina Buys Houses to sell my house as-is off market and I was very satisfied with my experience. The people most closely connected to my transaction, Peg and Brian, were knowledgeable, professional, courteous, and above all efficient. I had a very tight timeline for buying, selling, and moving and my team did a tremendous job getting everything done within my timeline. I was particularly impressed with the frequency and thoroughness of thr communication between me and my team. I was also impressed with their willingness to let me close Escrow on the sale in advance of my departure from the property at no additional cost. The Harry and David gift basket they sent to us was a very nice touch and was totally unexpected. I highly recommend John Medina Buys Houses!

My wife's mother died leaving a home that needed some TLC before it could be sold and frankly I could have performed most, if not all the work myself, but I was just too busy with life to make that happen. My wife Char and I decided to check out one of the companies that buys homes "As is". We contacted John Medina Buys Houses after reading other positive reviews. We spoke with "Peg" and she was just a delight. She made us feel so comfortable and instantly there was a repour and trust. She set up the appointment for Johnathon to come out to the house for a look around and get the ball rolling. I did have another similar company come out around the same time so that I could compare the two quotes. Long story short the other "Guy" insulted me with a much lower amount and we agreed to go with Medina's firm. Every step was explained to us thoroughly, we always knew what was occurring and before with knew it the sell was complete and we could get on with our lives. The entire Medina staff that we spoke to were all caring professionals and I would not hesitate to use them in the future.

I had the good fortune to work with Peg, Ricky and Brian selling my deceased father’s home. Peg could not have been more professional, encouraging and knowledgeable. She recognizes well that she is in the “people” business and she does it very well. I chose them exclusively (without interviewing other companies that I had on my list) because of the trust I had developed with Peg. Ricky was the inspector who came out and did the walk through - he called when he thought he was going to be late (he wasn’t). He was professional and did a thorough review in a very timely manner. He explained everything very thoroughly - he and Peg make a great team. Brian came in during the closing process and it could not have gone more smoothly. The notary handled everything and all questions were answered. I cannot say enough good things about John Medina buys homes. While there was a short delay in processing they kept me apprised of the situation on a daily basis. I felt like I was working with longtime friends using them. The Team at John Medina earned this endorsement - which I don’t do often! Thanks Team JM!.

We can not say enough good things about John Medina Buys Houses. It was a pleasure to do business with them. They offered top dollar for our home in Downey CA. They said what they would do for us, and they did what they said. Ricky came out and looked the property over and the next day we had an offer that we agreed to. Peggy and Brian were always available to answer any questions or concerns. Escrow was seamless and funds were in our bank the day after closing. We felt that they were doing us a favor and yet they kept thanking us.

After almost 50 years in our Garden Grove home, we decided to move out of state to be close to family. Our house was in need of much updating and repairs. Long story a little shorter, we chose to avoid the headaches and sell "as is". I was contacted by 5 different Companies, had them all give us a quote. John Medina Buys Houses was, by far, the absolute best offer. Not only that, but they stayed in contact all thru the process, offered so much help, and basically were there for us from start to close of escrow. I cannot recommend then highly enough! Awesome group!

We could not have been happier with our experience with John Medina Buys Homes. Rick and his team were awesome and exceeded our expectations. They managed to sell our home in San Pedro in record time and at above asking price - while we were in Florida the whole time! Rick was our "boots on the ground" and made everything smooth, efficient and took all the hassle of selling a home right off of our shoulders. We could not have been in better hands. Thank you Rick, Hannah and the rest of the team. God Bless you all!

I appreciate the openness of the John Medina and teams efforts toward our selling needs. Got what we wanted in the agreed amount of time that we agreed on. John is very much like me, straight to the point, no sugar on it like I was told by others years ago. Best part of all was no people trampling through your home in a stressful time of ones life. Thank you John !. Mike and Lillian Rios

Rick Magana was excellent to work with - regular follow-up prior to sale, follow-through and high quality support during the process, and professional service. They oriented their timeframes to meet our needs and were always available to respond to questions and our requests for information. I recommend them to others in need of their type of service.

I met with Rick the home buying specialist at John Medina Buys Houses because I was having problems with a bad tenant and needed to raise the rent but the tenant refused. I was coming out of pocket hundreds of dollars a month and thought I didn’t have any options. Ricky talked with me and explained exactly what my rights were and what he felt were my best options. He didn’t even make an offer. He said my best option was to refinance to get my payment lower because of COVID all the rates were much lower than I currently had. Once he talked me through it I realized I could turn my property into a cash flow positive investment and keep it after all. I’m very grateful and highly recommend him and the company for any of your real estate needs.

I was in a tough situation to where I had to sell my home fast. It was a very stressful time. But then I called John Medina Buys Houses and they helped put my mind at ease. Once i decided to do it, they took care of everything and I didn't have to worry about it. So if you can't list on MLS and you need a place to turn to you can rest assured that John and his team will come to your rescue.

John and his team made the sale easy. I had 3 investors reach out to me but they moved best with my personality and professionalism. I sold to move out of state and happy I chose this company. I highly recommend them to anyone who wants to sell for cash.

We lost my Uncle in January of this year. I was very close to him, so it has been a difficult loss for me. He had a property(condo) in Playa Del Rey that we would loved to have kept. But, it really was not an option with one child in college, and one in a private high school (as well as dual ownership). We had a lot of interest in the property, but I felt the other parties were trying to take advantage of the situation. We live out of state and had been traveling back and forth quite a bit during my Uncle's illness. I contacted John as I became more frustrated with the process and people that had been contacting me. He truly was like a breath of fresh air. He listened to me, was fair, and worked with my timeline. I am happy to have sold the property to someone I trusted. The process was very easy and John always communicated what his intentions were. I am excited to see the finished product once his project is completed . I feel that we both did well with the deal that was made. If you have a property and need to sell it, I would highly recommend contacting John.

I have sold several properties for John and it is always a pleasure to work with him. John is fair and reasonable when it comes to business dealings. He never cuts corners on quality or material costs, which results in a product you can feel good about. John is the ultimate professional that cares about the service he provides and the people he works with.
