Irene Block is an exceptional realtor who I had the pleasure of working with recently on a VA loan transaction for one of our clients purchasing their first home. As a loan officer, it's crucial for me to collaborate with realtors who prioritize client care and professionalism, and Irene exceeded all expectations.
Throughout the entire process, Irene demonstrated a deep knowledge of the real estate market and a strong commitment to her clients' needs. She ensured that our client was well-informed at every step, making the home buying experience smooth and stress-free. Her attention to detail and proactive communication made a significant difference in achieving a successful closing.
Irene's dedication to her work is truly commendable. She not only met but exceeded our client's expectations, providing invaluable guidance and support from start to finish. I would highly recommend Irene Block to anyone looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, and personable realtor who puts their clients first.
Thank you, Irene, I look forward to helping more families achieve homeownership together!

I was doing a long distance relocation to North San Diego county and Irene was super helpful with finding a house. She knew the local area and the market very well and was able to direct me to neighborhoods that fit what I was looking for. And with the long distance part of the process, she was great. Always willing and able to go to any property and do a video walk through with me. When it was time to make an offer, she had the process down cold and had good advice on what to bid. And after closing, Irene was on top of the transaction, negotiating on repairs, making sure all the papers were signed, and just generally keeping everything on track. I'm extremely happy with Irene's assistance and would hire her again.

Irene Block helped us sell two of our homes and purchase our primary residence, at the SAME TIME! Irene is extremely patient, understanding, kind and extremely professional. Whenever we called/texted/emailed she responded immediately. Irene walked us through the entire process every step of the way and never left us wondering what was next. We would recommend Irene to all our family and friends and anyone who we hear needs a real estate agent.
