Irvine, California, Home to University of California, Irvine (UCI)

Irvine is the country's largest and best-known planned community. Now a city of over 150,000 people, its housing "villages" and business developments were sculpted from portions of the huge Irvine Ranch, purchased by James Irvine in 1864. Irvine's growth as a residential and employment area was spurred by the decision to build a local University of California campus. In 1960, The Irvine Co. donated 1,000 acres and sold 500 acres to the university system for the new campus. Irvine officials tout it as a progressive, trend setting city that delivers a high level of services to its residents. It is famed for its highly regulated residential neighborhoods. Community rules ban visual blight such as television antennas and recreational vehicles parked on the streets. Residents are expected to keep their property as neat as that of their neighbors. The city also prides itself on its parks, bicycle trails and recreational programs for children.

It's easy for agents to be 'heroes' to their clients when prices are rising, and homes are 'selling like hotcakes'! The situation is a vastly different, though, when the market is moving the other direction. That was our situation. Terry provides extraordinary marketing, including newspaper ads for our home in over 20 newspapers weekly, a widely-distributed, professional-quality Virtual Tour, open houses, direct mail, unbelievable Internet marketing results....Read More

"Terry Hunter has been our broker for most of our real estate transactions for over 18 years! He has handled our homes, business leases, land acquisition, commercial land and building sales, development negotiations, and government "buy-out" negotiations, among other tasks...Read More

"At first, my friend didn't understand, but then I explained. "Since you plan to buy a home in the $300,000 range", I told her, "this card will save you $3,000!" I explained that Hunter-Broker pays a 1% REBATE to Buyers, and this would be money in her pocket. I also told her that I had been VERY pleased with Terry Hunter (the Broker for Hunter-Broker) on the marketing of my own home...Read More

"As a Financial Planner, I demand for my personal real estate transactions the same kind of expert, responsive, and accurate handling that I provide for my own investment clients (especially given the recent market "run-up" in our real estate equities). I really didn't think such service was available in the (undisciplined, to my eye) real estate market, but I got all the expertise and attention to detail that I expected, and more, from Hunter-Broker...Read More

I missed the 'top of the market', but still needed to sell to pursue other activities. What to do, what to do...Read More

Terry was no stranger to us. He was the listing agent when we bought our home about 3 years ago, and he also represented us as the buyer in that purchase. He was our lender, too, so we knew who to call when we were ready to sell!!...Read More

Terry sold our neighbor’s house, and the neighbor’s next to them, too. More important, he got the highest price ever by FAR for both homes. The first appraisals came in low, so he got new appraisals (from new appraisers), and closed both of those sales at their high asking prices...Read More

I met Terry as the listing agent of a rental property I inquired about. I didn’t end up buying that property, but DID decide to continue working with Terry after that first meeting with him. The initial reason was his Buyer Cash-Back, but that turned out to be the LEAST of the MANY reasons I stuck with him! ...Read More

The whole process only took about 20 days, and I got MASSIVE cash rebates on top of getting the property thousands under the appraisal. I'd do this supposedly "high-stress" task once a WEEK!...Read More

It was time to sell my rental! Boy, was I dismayed when I saw the condition the tenant left it in! I contacted Terry to sell it, and in the selling process, we decided that it would be more profitable to do the fix-up myself, rather than selling it without fixing it up first. Next problem was that I was busy with my life, and didn't want to take the time to manage the fix-up. No problem here!...Read More

We saw the Old-Town Seal Beach home at an Open House Terry was having, and my brother fell in love with it (years ago, he had rented the same floorplan)! We decided to go direct through Terry, rather than involve our own broker, partly because Terry seemed easy to work with, and partly because of the thousands in rebates that Terry was willing to pay us...Read More

After interviewing a total of four real estate agents, I selected Terry. He arrived promptly, didn't waste my time, and, his presentation was so very, very professional, standing out from other established, fullservice real estate agents who had pitched my business...Read More

When our job transfer came through, we needed to sell our home, but we weren't willing to pay 6% to do it, especially in this market. We saw a sold home near our neighborhood with a sold sign that said "Sold - Seller Paid Only 3.5%". It also had another rider on the bottom that said "Buyer Got 1% Cash-Back". That sounded GOOD to us, so we called to meet the agent and get a market evaluation of our home...Read More

After Terry refinanced our home 4 times last year, we knew he was great to work with! And, the rapid appreciation of newer homes convinced us that it was time for a move (rather than another refinance). So we naturally contacted Terry to help us in that as well...Read More

For the 4th time, Terry has delivered more than he promised. As a retired Realtor myself, I know the difference between good service and "lip service", and Terry's service REALLY IS outstanding!...Read More

Terry presented an offer for me on a major bargain-priced property, one that had just been reduced a LOT on Friday. Rather than leave my profit to chance, Terry tirelessly pursued the presenting of the offer, and by early Saturday morning, had seller approval...Read More

After we personally checked out Terry's services (for several of our own properties) I was willing to take the unusual step (unusual for me, at least, given my almost fanatical protection of my clients' financial well-being) of referring him to several of my clients who needed real estate services. I have been EXTREMELY pleased with his polished approach (even in stressful situations), and with his clear, concise explanations that keep everybody in the transaction 'in the know', all the time...Read More

We met Terry at an open house in Irvine's Northpark. He had his computer & printer with him, and he was able to answer all our questions about selling our Coto de Caza home right on the spot. On top of that, he also only charged about half of what other Realtors had quoted us...Read More

I had planned to sell my place myself, but I remembered Terry's ad from a few months earlier about a TOTAL commission of 3.5%, including everything. And I was willing to cooperate with brokers if I got a good enough price. After talking with Terry, I decided to have full representation by my OWN broker, working for ME, instead of having brokers with buyers just working for their buyers and themselves...Read More

Terry has a "First Look" list that lets his clients see his listings BEFORE they even get into the MLS. In a hot market like we have seen here for some time, this can make the difference between getting a good buy, or not getting it at all...Read More

Terry will give you back 1% of his commission after close. You will not have to lift a finger, just pick a property and watch Jesus use him throughout the whole process and give you money back after completion. He reviews and approves every document before having you sign. Very Proficient. He will even put in his own money to meet the closing of escrow. It was a risk free purchase for us...Read More

When we decided that it was time to sell our rental, we took our Financial Advisor's advice and went with Terry. GOOD move!..Read More

After finding Terry's Cash-Back Rebate program on the Internet, we called him to make an offer for us on a home we had seen at an open house (after a brief conversation with him that made us comfortable working with him). That property was already sold, but this started the long process of looking at properties weekends & after work, sometimes as late as 8 - 9 PM. Terry was ALWAYS available for us, even though we know that his workday starts at 6 AM!...Read More

Well, let's start with the money. Terry got us a very high price for our home, compared to other sales. We saw his "List for 1% ad", and gave him a call. He showed us actual proof (closed sales from the MLS) of his claim that not only charges less commission, but also gets higher prices for his clients, too...Read More

I still chuckle when I recall what one of the old-timer real estate brokers who remembered me as a Realtor years ago before I retired told Terry when they interviewed him to sell their property. He and his wife had read my earlier Client Success Story on Terry's website, and told Terry that they were hiring him because ANYBODY whose marketing could satisfy me, would SURELY satisfy them!...Read More

We were leaving the state for retirement, and it was time to sell to make our move. The market had been hot for months, but it had suddenly cooled a bit. We were used to weekly increases in price, but Terry told us that we had to temper our goals if we were to find the buyer we clearly needed to change our equity into real, spendable money in this new market we found ourselves in! We saw all the signs, and we KNEW it had changed!...Read More

As an executive in the home loan business, and having bought and sold a number of homes in the past, the LAST thing we needed was a “salesman”. However, we DID need someone with knowledge of the local market, and someone who could help us move fast enough to get a good buy in this extreme “seller’s market”...Read More

Terry sold our home on Moon Ridge in Lake Forest for the highest price EVER for our model, and then saved us money on our title policy and thousands more because of his super-low commissions! We estimate that we saved about $13,000, just on our sale...Read More

Terry is a genius. His knowledge of real estate and ability to negotiate the best deal make him the obvious choice as your agent...Read More

Calling Terry's service "Magic" by paraphrasing author Arthur Clarke may be overstating the case a bit, but working with Terry certainly was smooth, efficient & convenient...Read More

We loved the professional quality Virtual Tour that showed our home off to the ENTIRE buying public without their even setting foot in it! Terry makes masterful use of the Internet for marketing, AND for keeping us up-to-the-minute with the marketing and all the offers and counter offers involved in selling our home...Read More

Starting with the obvious, I received $17,400 more than the highest sale EVER for my floorplan!! Then, I saved 2.5% on the commission (Terry charges about ½ the "going rate" at 3.5% total) for another $8,685 in savings...Read More

It starts with the price, of course. Terry sold my home for the highest price ever for my model. I was dismayed when another broker presented the first offer, but ultimately Terry closed my sale for $50,000 more!...Read More

Terry helped me buy my home about 2 years ago, and now he has successfully sold it for a GREAT price, and with major savings...Read More

After trying unsuccessfully to sell our home with another agent for a LONG time, we had the good fortune to mention our frustration to friends who also lived at Marbella Country Club. Their glowing & insistent recommendation of Terry Hunter of Hunter-Broker made us decide to interview him, even though we already had appointments set up with other agents...Read More

While waiting (and waiting and waiting) for various mortgage brokers to deliver on their rate, points, and performance promises, we saw Hunter-Broker's ad in OC Metro Magazine for 15-minute loan approval. Terry's ad promised the best rates and costs in the marketplace, and backed the claim with a $300 guarantee. Well, THAT combination (and the obvious confidence it showed in their own ability to perform) was worth a call, for sure!...Read More

Little did I know that when I answered the ad with the guaranteed $300 savings and 15-minute loan approval that Terry Hunter (broker for Hunter-Broker) would become my "Realtor For Life", too...Read More

My wife and I recently purchased our first home and I must say that despite all the intricacies of real estate transaction our agent Mr. Terry Hunter has made home buying experience very rewarding and the process seamless...Read More

We first decided to try Terry Hunter because of his large rebate program. Good Move! THAT, alone, was worth over $10,000 SAVINGS in our pocket - a GREAT start!...Read More

We saw every home in my price range in Irvine! There was already an offer & counter-offer on the home I really wanted. Terry used the money from the "Instant Rebate" plan to give the Sellers the net dollar that they wanted, right on the spot...Read More

I am a man of few words, and my few words are that Terry got my price and saved me a lot in commissions...Read More

Terry Hunter helped me tremendously in bringing my dream of owning a home to reality. He not only helped me find the perfect home, but he was informative and helpful throughout every step of the home buying process. (Saved me a LOT of money on my loan too!)...Read More

I am writing this to letter to make sure that everyone who reads it knows what an amazing broker Terry Hunter is. My husband and I just purchased our very first home. Without Terry's help it wouldn't have been possible...Read More

Terry Hunter is very efficient, reliable and always available for you any time of the day. He really gives a lot for the little that you pay...Read More

Terry sold my home in only 13 days, after I had wasted weeks trying to sell "By Owner" to "sharpshooters" and novices...Read More

We had tried to sell our home for MONTHS "By Owner", and also with a selection of other real estate agents. HUNDREDS of strangers came into our beautifully upgraded, almost new home for 6 months of wasted weekends (and weekdays, too!). During the entire 6 months, we only got one offer, and IT was from a non-qualified buyer! What a bummer! Just 2 weeks after we retained Hunter-Broker to market our home, Terry Hunter (broker for Hunter-Broker) sold it himself!...Read More

Terry sold our Princeton Townhome "Beckett" model rental in only 21 days! We had been trying to sell it ourselves, when we found out about Terry's "Save About Half" plan...Read More

We had been thinking about selling our home, but we didn't want to pay 6% to do it. We found out about Terry's "Seller Save About Half" program at one of his open houses. 20 days after we retained Terry, our home was sold for OVER our asking price...Read More

Our home is situated deep in our neighborhood. We tried to sell our home ourselves for several weeks, but we couldn't because we lacked exposure. Then we found our dream home, and we KNEW we needed the impact of the Multiple Listing Service (MLS)...Read More

Naturally, I liked saving over $6,000 in commissions with the "Sellers Save About Half" program. And, I made even MORE profit because he got me MORE than my asking price. But, what REALLY impressed me was how he converted my "contingent" sale into a FIRM sale. It turns out that Terry is an expert in Options...Read More

We tried for months to sell our home by ourselves and with other agents before Hunter-Broker. We had some "almost deals", but none went together. Furthermore, agents were unwilling to negotiate what we considered unreasonably high commissions, so we tried it on our own. Still no deal!...Read More

We found Hunter-Broker while we were looking for a home on the Internet. We noticed their Internet Open House photographs for a home on Paseo Westpark in Irvine. Although we didn't buy that particular home, Terry worked quickly and efficiently to find us the perfect one...Read More

We worked with Hunter-Broker to buy an investment property because Hunter-Broker was the listing agent for the property we wanted...Read More

We met Terry by sheer chance. He had just helped our new neighbor John Mendiola acquire his residence in our Irvine neighborhood. Later, we called Terry because of his low commission rate when we decided to sell our property in Orange (We thought the 6% that other brokers quoted us was ABSURD!) After meeting again with Terry, we decided to give it try...Read More

While other competing properties languished on the market seemingly forever, Terry's marketing approach and up-to-the-minute technology edge got MY property SOLD!...Read More

Terry's whirlwind marketing plan (web, MLS, mail-outs, ads in multiple newspapers, open houses, and so forth) very quickly produced a qualified buyer for our home...Read More

We met Terry Hunter because Hunter-Broker had listed a 3-bedroom home in our neighborhood. Our second child was on the way, and we NEEDED a bigger home...Read More

Terry Hunter is a real PRO! We met Terry at an open house. We loved the property; he negotiated the transaction; and closed the escrow in less than 15 days...Read More

Terry worked with us for weeks to find the perfect home for us. When he found it, he was told that it was already sold. He kept checking, however, and found that it really WASN'T sold! He quickly wrote it up for us, then negotiated $10,000 off an already reasonable price, and then he REBATED us an ADDITIONAL $4,700. What a way to turn a good buy into a GREAT buy!...Read More

We met Terry and found the property we wanted all at the same time. We met at an open house, and we worked directly with Terry to successfully and quickly close escrow on the property...Read More

I was searching for a condo and trying to sell my own home. So many realtors/brokers charge 6% and that was just not going to work for me. I needed some cash back from the sale of my home in order to buy the condo. And a 6% fee would take most of my equity. I also was recently widowed left to handle this on my own. That's when I met Terry Hunter...Read More

I said in an earlier letter of appreciation that I would not do a real estate deal without Terrry (after my previous experience with Terry through 2 sales, 2 purchases, and a number of loans). Well, I just bought my new home & turned my former home into my FIRST RENTAL (Yippee!!). Terry's team handled it for me...Read More

When we decided it was time to buy our first home, we decided it would be a good idea to get "pre-approval" so we would not waste our time looking at homes we could not qualify for. We went to our credit union, but they did not do pre-approvals. They suggested that there were lots of pre-approval sites on the internet, so we began our search. Terry's "15 minute Approval" caught our eye...Read More

Like the humorous line from the 1950's song: "So I signed my name and became a star…" , We signed OUR names to have Terry sell our home and he became our "Star" in a "well-scripted play"...Read More

We found Terry through his advertisement at the HomeGain Internet site (one of his many marketing avenues), and after a quick meeting, decided that he was the one to get us a high price for our townhome...Read More

Your web-based MLS search engine is most efficient. Unlike others we’ve seen, yours allowed us to remove properties which were not of interest to us. This feature saved us time since we were able to specifically view newly-listed properties along with those existing listings that were still of interest to us... Read More

A coworker with significant real estate holdings referred me to Terry Hunter. The low commission peaked my interest, but a conversation and review of Terry’s marketing materials convinced me to use Terry... Read More

The highest compliment we could pay Terry is to refer him to our son! We did that, and we expect Bernie will have the same great service and RESULTS that we have enjoyed in our own three transactions over the past year! Read More
