We were interested in a second home in Huntington Beach. We live in Las Vegas so we knew no one in the area. I stumbled upon Cyndi via her website and as luck would have it we struck gold. I contacted Cyndi about an interest in a property close to the beach. When we met her she had a book prepared with all the properties we would look at for the day and a map of the area. She lives in the area in knows each property very well. We decided on a property and she was helpful every step of the way. Living out of town she helped us through the home inspection and even volunteered to open the place to get the floors installed, while we are still out of town. If you are looking for a place in Orange County, Cyndi is your best bet to find it.

"I am so glad that I chose Cyndi to be my Realtor. She gave me such confidence when she listed my home, which was unique in that it was only 1 of 7 homes in the city with the same criteria. Cyndis marketing was right on, she kept me up to date at all times with feedback and was always available by phone or email when I needed her. She brought in the buyer too and I was there for the negotiations. I was willing to go lower in price than she was and she fought all the way for the great price we got. I have recommended her many times and will use her again for a purchase or a sale. She also found me the perfect home to buy and arranged the closing of escrows so that I didn't have to move twice."

I would highly recommend Cyndi Mino for your buying or selling real estate needs. She was very knowledgeable, informative, and up front about the process to sell our house here in SoCal. We needed to move quickly and she worked tirelessly to promote and sell our house. Even though I am sure she had many other clients, we felt like we were a top priority. She truly loves what she does, and it shows! Thank you Cyndi!

"My boyfriend and I worked with Cyndi to buy our first house. We were both unfamiliar with the process and she helped make it as smooth and stress-free as possible. We really appreciated Cyndi's willingness to help, regardless of the time of day or night, and her flexibility to meet us for inspections, walk-thoughs etc., when it was convenient for us. She was also great at responding to our many calls and texts to explain things we were confused or concerned about. Cyndi is a true professional. It was a pleasure working with her and her team. Thanks!"

I first coordinated with Cyndi Mino in 2005 when I was in the market to buy my first home in Pasadena, CA. As a first-time home buyer, it was imperative that I work with someone I could trust, and that could guide me through the maze of seller real estate/banker/escrow processes/procedures with pure simplicity. Cyndi provided that for me and years later, when I relocated out-of-state, I could not think of another person to help me through the sale of the very same home.
Living outside of CA and trying to sell my place in CA posed numerous complexities, but once again, Cyndi guided me through the home sale process and we were able to close escrow this month! Cyndi was there to support me and reassure during my own frustration at how long the companies (banks) were taking to approve the final sale. And to reiterate, the entire sale took place while my home was in Pasadena, CA, Cyndi was in Orange County, and I was out-of-state!
Based on Cyndi's dedication, trustworthiness, diligence, tenacity, and diligence, I would highly recommend her as well as utilizing her services for future sales...if I could in my new home state!

Cyndi was the most professional realtor that we have ever worked with. She helped purchase and subsequently sell our 5th home. Her detailed and timely responses were above any realtor experience we have ever had. She made sure that we were a priority and that our contracts were always in our best interest.

I contacted Cyndi many years before I was able to buy or sell my home. She always answered or returned my calls within minutes. Her follow up is impeccable and she always took her time to answer any questions I had. Once it was time to sell my house, Cyndi walked me through the forms whenever I had questions (I had a lot of questions to what I was signing). She was able to calm me down when the process got frustrating and really cared about me and the outcome. Her many years of experience shines through. She also is just the perfect amount of "aggressive" when things need to get done. I will absolutely recommend her!

I have been working with Cyndi for the last decade. She is the best realtor I worked with, and has handled all my real estate needs - buy, sell, rent, you name it. She is extremely knowledge about the market and knows every detail about every city in Orange county and beyond. She is always on top of everything. Never once she didn't reply my phone, text, or email right away, even weekends or holidays. This year Cyndi helped me and my wife purchased our 3rd house. And in this crazy market it took us almost 6 months. Cyndi toured countless houses with us, wrote up over a dozen offers, and kept in touch with seller agents on daily basis. We finally got the house we both like, without paying arms and legs. In this market, if you are a buyer, you will need someone like Cyndi - she will get you your dream house, no matter how hard the journey will be.

Cyndi is an AMAZING real estate agent. We are moving cross country to Orange County which poses many challenges but Cyndi made it happen for us! We have consulted with her over the past two years and she patiently listened, showed us homes and asked questions which helped us identify what we wanted in our new home. She went above and beyond to show us homes both 'in-person' and virtually including FaceTiming with us to meet with a home inspector about the home we just purchased. She helped us find contractors to make desired changes before we arrive and has even been willing to check in on the remodel project for us. I highly recommend Cyndi as an outstanding agent who provides stellar client service.

Cyndi was our listing agent during the selling of a property. She did her homework and listed it at great price. She listed the property, and a day latter had an open house; where we had an offer at above asking price. She responded promptly to all our questions. She is very efficient and went the extra mile to get the transaction done. Oh, let me add, she was also our buyer agent as looked to buy a new property for the 1031X. She took us to places and helped us found our next property. Again, she got things done! If you are looking for an agent who is caring, efficient, who goes the extra mile for you to sell or buy your property, then you found it-Cyndi is the one!!! Gwen

Cyndi helped us purchase our condo while we were located overseas. She was extremely patient as the acquisition took over 3 years. Cyndi guided us and explained to us the process every step of the way. Honest and with a 'lets make it happen' attitude, we are lucky to have found Cyndi.

I reached out to Cyndi at the start of my 'search' and since I was a first time buyer, she was kind enough to walk me through the home buying process from start to finish so I would know what to expect, have prepared in advance, etc. She provided guidance and patience from the start of my search through close of escrow. She was mindful of my 'must haves' vs. my 'negotiables.' I am happy to say I am officially a homeowner and LOVE my new home and new neighborhood.

Cyndi is incredibly professional and knowledgeable. She is always there for you regardless of the day or hour. She goes above and beyond to make the homebuying experience as pain-free as possible. To describe her qualities I would say she is hardworking, intelligent, tech savvy, and friendly. We had a particularly difficult time with the seller's agent and she took care of it with professionalism. She was always one step ahead in every instance. I will be referring her all over town. She is amazing to work with and an all-around fantastic person!

Cyndi just sold a property for me. Based on her expertise and advice, the property entered into escrow within a week of being listed and sold at $10k over listing.

If I could give Cyndi 10 stars, I would. Cyndi was the most professional, pleasant, hardworking person I've had the pleasure of knowing! She is incredibly tech savvy. She made our life easier by having us sign documents digitally. Additionally, she was great about knowing whether something should be discussed via phone call/email or something minor via text (great for us homebuyers with little ones and jobs!). I feel like I went into battle with Cyndi. Our first homebuying experience wasn't as pleasant as we imagined (nothing to do with her or us -- the other party was incredibly difficult and unprofessional), but she went above and beyond the call of duty. She was always one step ahead and very much had our best interest. She was always adding addendums to protect us legally, which I appreciated. When the other party was trying to hide out, Cyndi was chasing them down (literally). I love Cyndi - - as a person too. She was fabulous to work with and despite getting settled into our new home FINALLY.. I do miss her. Are you supposed to get this attached to your real estate agent? It doesn't matter if you are supposed to or not because you just will. She's fabulous.

I found Cyndi by chance when I was inquiring about a property I'd seen on Zillow. The three things I love best about her are: (1) she never pressured me to go view properties and never made lame suggestions about what I could do with a place, but let me do my own assessment; (2) she was incredibly efficient and answered all my questions about the availability of properties, their history, etc., and (3) she was prompt, prompt, prompt!! I never had to wait for a response to any emails or texts. Cyndi's personality was a perfect match for my husband, too. She's just such a good listener and so very professional, and that made my husband willing to work with her on every aspect of this transaction as well. I don't see how anyone, buyer or seller, could go wrong working with Cyndi as their realtor.

- Highly likely to recommend Bought a Single Family home in 2010 for approximately $750k in Huntington Beach, CA. Local knowledge: Process expertise: Responsiveness: Negotiation skills: Summary: Cyndi Mino was a dream come true for our family. She takes the time to get to know your entire family and their needs for a home. We felt very comfortable with her knowledge and expertise in finding our perfect home. Cyndi always had our best interest and is extremely honest, which is so rare in today's world. She has a wonderful eye for detail and , with her extensive knowledge of homes, was able to see potential problems I was unaware of. She would send me daily updates of new properties and would meet me at a monents notice if a home fit all my criteria and needed a look. Cyndi is very calm and collected, never rushing, and always put in as much time as needed. We would not have found our dream home without her. I have recommended her time and time again and not only consider her our Realtor, but now also a friend Susan and Mike

Cyndi delivers quick stellar results! She sold my condo in less than 2 weeks on the market and at the price we listed at. Cyndi is always upbeat and friendly to work with even when I have a last minute question late into the evening. She is very tech savvy and handles most paperwork digitally, which is very convenient. Cyndi is a hard worker and works overtime to meet me in the evening after work to handle paperwork or to respond to my late evening emails and texts when I'm filling out forms after work. She is quick to respond to my emails, text, and calls. She always keeps me updated with the latest progress. Cyndi helped me buy a condo and she helped me sell a condo and both times she did an excellent job. She has the experience you are looking for in selling or buying a home.

We were first introduced to Cyndi at an open house in the Belmont Heights area of Long Beach. After speaking with her and explaining our wants and needs for our first house purchase. We were fairly specific about wanting a charming 30's or 40's long beach home in the Bixby/Cal Heights area. Cyndi immediately set up an automated MLS listing feed that would update when new homes went on the market. This was very helpful for us to get a jump on properties we were interested in viewing. We looked at about 7 different homes before finally making an offer on a house. What made Cyndi unique is that she never tried to sell us on anything. She was very honest about possible upgrades needed for the home, repairs, and other issues we may not have thought about. When we finally decided on the home we made our offer the day of the open house (Cyndi's Idea). The seller ended up with multiple offers on the first day of the listing. He ended up gling with our offer with the guidance from Cyndi. Cyndi was very thorough and punctual handling the bidding situation with multiple offers. We had a 30 day escrow and everything went really smooth as Cyndi was always coordinating with the lender, the listing agent, the seller and myself to keep things moving in the right direction. We ended up with a perfect house in a great, charming part of Long Beach to raise our children. I would highly recommend Cyndi for any of your real estate needs. Being a USC grad, she gave us a nice discount on closing costs which was a great little perk at the end! We will certainly use Cyndi in the future!

We had the pleasure of working with Cyndi recently on a new home purchase. We kind of knew what we wanted but she was able to drill down to a tee what we liked and disliked. Cyndi helped us in an area (home purchasing) we know very little about and was a wonderful experience. She made sure to get us the best price possible while ensuring we got our dream home. Thank you Cyndi for all your help, looking forward to sending people your way soon.

She is also very friendly and thorough person who will take care of after sales services as well. I am highly recommending her to anyone who is looking for living or investing in Irvine, CA."

My family and I enjoyed working with Cyndi. She always responded immediately, no matter what, and definately kept all of us in the loop. She was very easy to talk to and work with, especially since this was my first undertaking as far as selling a home. Plus, she had so much enthusiasum and a real 'let's do this' attitude. Got me a great price for my home, yet I never felt like I wasn't ultimately in control. Once our home was ready to go, it sold immediately. A great experience. My father (whose home I was selling) is 95, and Cyndi was always considerate of his feelings and needs.

Cyndi has been the family realtor for many years now and we wouldn't dream of using anyone else. She helped our folks upsize their family home and us to get our first condo - she knows the whole market across tons of areas. She's always fighting on your side and is tenacious in getting everything just right for you. The best thing is that Cyndi's service doesn't stop once the sale is complete, she's always there for advice and guidance whenever you need. Thank you Cyndi for guiding us through everything and taking on all the tricky work, making the process as painless as can be!

If you are looking for a realtor that is honest, trustworthy, very responsive, patient and persistent, look no further! Cyndi helped us buy our first home, and she was phenomenal throughout every step of the process. She was always extremely quick to respond to emails and phone calls. No question that I had seemed too tedious - she took all of them very seriously. I did not feel pressured to buy something that was out of my budget or that I did not love.
We made offers on multiple homes, and at no point did Cyndi lose momentum. One home came on the market at 7am, she met me at 11am to see it, and we had an offer in by 3pm that afternoon - how great is that? That home is now my home thanks to Cyndi's help throughout the entire purchasing and escrow process (she is still answering questions that have come up after we moved in!!).
I cannot recommend Cyndi enough - you can trust that you are in good hands with her! "

We worked with Cyndi on both the sale of our condo and the purchase of a new home. In both experiences, Cyndi proved time and again that she truly cares about her clients and has their best interests at heart. Trying to do both at the same time was extremely stressful for us, especially as we had two buyers back out - our fault, not hers, and in fact this means she helped us with 4 sales! - and she was always available for a phone call to walk us through the next steps and to make sure we weren't forgetting anything. Then, when we were looking for our new home, she very quickly got the feel for our price range and taste, and she did a great job suggesting properties. And when we took interest in a new place, she was extremely quick to speak with the listing agent to get us all the details on the seller's needs and the general market interest to help us position ourselves well with our offer. In the end, we couldn't have imagined working with anyone else. Thanks Cyndi!

Cyndi is a friend of ours and I was very hesitant to ask her to help us sell our home as a Short Sale. I should never have worried, she is very professional and assured us that that all details would stay between just the 3 of us, no other family would know about them and to this day, it still stands. She had already spread the word about our home before putting a sign up and we had 2 offers that first day. We have horse property and almost an acre which made it unique to sell. She knew our dogs well so we felt comfortable having her show our home in our absence. Cyndi had told us it would be 4-6 months before we would have to move and it took only 4 months - and I was looking forward to 6 months! She stayed in touch with us all the time, every day if something new came up. She was there every step of the way, meeting other agents, other buyers, inspectors, etc. I have referred her many times and will continue to do so and we are still friends! That was her promise to us when we listed with her - that we would still be friends after - thanks, Cyndi!

So happy with Cyndi from beginning to end!! We didn't have a lot of spare time to look at properties, Cyndi made things very fast, easy, and efficient but thorough, exactly what we needed. She is very knowledgable with every aspect of the purchase and incredibly responsive. We were able to get a hold of her whenever was needed! Her personal touches after we closed the deal was so thoughtful and kind :) We highly recommend Cyndi!

After doing much research and due diligence prior to selecting an agent, there was no other choice. We had to select Cyndi Mino, and will absolutely continue to use her in the future. I can't even begin to describe how happy we were with Cyndi and her whole process. Cyndi helped us both buy and sell our homes at the same time. Buying a home is hard. Selling a home is hard. You NEED experience, honesty, trust and a great attitude from the agent you select. No matter how unreasonable you become, and trust me you will become unreasonable at some point during a real estate transaction. You need someone to fight for you, talk you off the ledge, and give you the right advise- even if it means they loose the sale. Cyndi has these necissary intangibles. She honestly cares for her clients and we felt that throughout the entire 5 months we worked with her. Cyndi Mino is one of the most professional people I have ever come across. She is THE bar that all real estate agents should be measured by. I am extremely happy that we chose Cyndi to represent us and I would not hesitate for a second to recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home! Thank you Cyndi!

Wow, I can not say enough about Cyndi and her level of expertise and professionalism. She was able to negotiate the price 18k below asking. The home ended up being worth 35k more than what we paid at the time of the appraisal. She talked us through and walked us through each step of the way. She was always available and never had a problem when we would call or message her. The biggest thing is that she wasn’t trying to just sell me home. You can tell she cares and wants you to buy the home you want. Personally, I feel lucky to have found her as an agent. I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home.

I contacted Cyndi many years before I was able to buy or sell my home. She always answered or returned my calls within minutes. Her follow up is impeccable and she always took her time to answer any questions I had. Once it was time to sell my house, Cyndi walked me through the forms whenever I had questions (I had a lot of questions to what I was signing). She was able to calm me down when the process got frustrating and really cared about me and the outcome. Her many years of experience shines through. She also is just the perfect amount of 'aggressive' when things need to get done. I will absolutely recommend her!

If you want a realtor that will deliver stellar results, go to Cyndi. I am so grateful to have found her after my loan officer recommended her to me. I've been through a couple of realtors and Cyndi is by far the best - most knowledgable, patient with all the infinite questions we have, efficient, effective, and she delivers results. She is very tech savvy too with handling of all our communications and paperwork and marketing. Cyndi has delivered fantastic results for us. She was able to find a renter for our rental property admist the tough holiday season. She was also able to help us locate a brand new home that met all our picky criteria. She listened to our needs and put the customer first instead of other real agents who would keep pushing customers to see their list of properties on hand. Cyndi really looks out for your interests and she will find you a home or renter that meets your criteria. Cyndi is one of the best agent out there with experience and a proven track record. Choosing her as my realtor was one of the best decision I made during my home purchase process.

I first coordinated with Cyndi Mino in 2005 when I was in the market to buy my first home in Pasadena, CA. As a first-time home buyer, it was imperative that I work with someone I could trust, and that could guide me through the maze of seller real estate/banker/escrow processes/procedures with pure simplicity. Cyndi provided that for me and years later, when I relocated out-of-state, I could not think of another person to help me through the sale of the very same home. Living outside of CA and trying to sell my place in CA posed numerous complexities, but once again, Cyndi guided me through the home sale process and we were able to close escrow this month! Cyndi was there to support me and reassure during my own frustration at how long the companies (banks) were taking to approve the final sale. And to reiterate, the entire sale took place while my home was in Pasadena, CA, Cyndi was in Orange County, and I was out-of-state! Based on Cyndi's dedication, trustworthiness, diligence, tenacity, and diligence, I would highly recommend her as well as utilizing her services for future sales...if I could in my new home state!

Cyndi was great to work with when buying our first home. She was very knowledgeable of the local area and provided expertise only a local would know.

I reached out to Cyndi at the start of my "search" and since I was a first time buyer, she was kind enough to walk me through the home buying process from start to finish so I would know what to expect, have prepared in advance, etc. She provided guidance and patience from the start of my search through close of escrow. She was mindful of my "must haves" vs. my "negotiables." I am happy to say I am officially a homeowner and LOVE my new home and new neighborhood.

Cyndi was great to work with! She answered my email and calls very quickly, which was great. She worked with my schedule and met me after work and on weekends, which added great flexibility. She is extremely knowledgeable. She put our interests and needs first. She knew we wanted a newer home and she showed us a brand new community. She is a good, honest agent. Cyndi is very tech savvy, prompt, proactive and always on top of things. Very professional and courteous. She is fantastic and one of the best realtors I worked with. I will continue to use her services and I wish I had found her earlier. Thanks!!! Angee T

Cyndi has sold multiple property's for us over the years including our home that just closed for 1,555,000, 20K above listing! All of them went seamlessly. She pays attention to detail. She is ALWAYS on time, every time. She is always quick to respond and always available, even if she's on vacation! We will continue to use her 'seasoned professional services' when ever the time comes again. SIX STARS!!!

I found Cyndi by chance when I was inquiring about a property I'd seen on Zillow. The three things I love best about her are: (1) she never pressured me to go view properties and never made lame suggestions about what I could do with a place, but let me do my own assessment; (2) she was incredibly efficient and answered all my questions about the availability of properties, their history, etc., and (3) she was prompt, prompt, prompt!! I never had to wait for a response to any emails or texts. Cyndi's personality was a perfect match for my husband, too. She's just such a good listener and so very professional, and that made my husband willing to work with her on every aspect of this transaction as well.
I don't see how anyone, buyer or seller, could go wrong working with Cyndi as their realtor.

I would highly recommend Cyndi Mino for your buying or selling real estate needs. She was very knowledgeable, informative, and up front about the process to sell our house here in SoCal. We needed to move quickly and she worked tirelessly to promote and sell our house. Even though I am sure she had many other clients, we felt like we were a top priority. She truly loves what she does, and it shows! Thank you Cyndi!

Cyndi is the best. I contacted her via internet about the possible chance of buying a second home in Huntington Beach. She was on top of things very quickly. I got home from work and had many places to choose from from Cyndi via Email. I live in Las Vegas and had to do many things from afar. She met us in Huntington Beach with a list of possible places. She offered great insights on the area and was willing to stay with us with multiple visits to multiple places. When we bought our home she was a huge help doing the inspection for us, with us being out of town. Cyndi is great and is the kind of person you want as a realtor. My son says she is our first friend in California.

I will recommend Cyndi to all my friends and family and have the utmost trust in her to give others the same experience she gave me. Thank you so much Cyndi!!

We chose Cyndi to list our condo in Huntington Beach after trying For Sale By Owner. Anyone whose chosen this method will know that you are bombarded with agents trying to get your listing. We met Cyndi while she was holding an open house in the same complex. We were both impressed with her and immediately decided to give her our listing. She was very attentive to us even though she had a swarm of brokers previewing the condo.mCyndi is very pleasant, and very professional. Turns out, it was a great decision. Cyndi sold out condo very quickly and made the experience painless 'that's saying a lot these days and in general dealing with agents'. We would highly recommend her.

- Highly likely to recommend 09/23/2014 Bought a Single Family home in 2014 for approximately $750K in Huntington Beach, CA. Local knowledge: Process expertise: Responsiveness: Negotiation skills: Cyndi was fantastic! My bride and I found the perfect home two short weeks before our wedding. We loved the house but with a European honeymoon planned, we were certain we would have to pass on it. Cyndi handled the entire process for us while we were away and shortly after our return we had our home. Cyndi is a complete real estate professional who knows here job! Thanks again Cyndi! Steve D

Cyndi is a fantastic realtor! I moved across the country during COVID-19 and she was an essential part of the process. She has great communication and took the time to find out what I was really looking for. She was able to preview all the homes I was interested in and find out nuanced information that is essential when you can't see before you buy. I'd definitely work with her again.

Cyndi truly cares about her Client's best interests, and it shows every step of the way. Whether finding a home, listing one, or the ominously rigorous process of buying and selling one at the same time.....you always know she is there for you and takes your concerns to heart. This particular home sold before it went on the MLS due to Cyndi's marketing program, which saved me from having to do Open Houses too!!

We had the pleasure of working with Cyndi recently on a new home purchase. We kind of knew what we wanted but she was able to drill down to a tee what we liked and disliked. Cyndi helped us in an area (home purchasing) we know very little about and was a wonderful experience. She made sure to get us the best price possible while ensuring we got our dream home. Thank you Cyndi for all your help, looking forward to sending people your way soon.

I am so grateful to have had Cyndi represent me and my husband, and help us purchase our first home! From our very first meeting she was professional and extremely helpful, providing us with sample documents of what to expect during the home buying process. I shared with her the locations I was interested in, features that were must haves (multiple parking spaces, patio), and features that were desired. Immediately she started pulling listings that matched our desires, and we found a perfect condo near the beach in Huntington. She helped guide us on to how to make an offer, which successfully lowered the asking price! Once the home buyer process officially began, Cyndi was available every moment to answer all questions we had, fill out forms properly and quickly. She 100% had our backs and truly cared that inspections were done properly, and ensured everything was in order. Our purchase process was different than normal since we were a utilizing down payment assistance program. This program caused delays in the buying process, but Cyndi was there to reassure us, and to push for document processing to be done as quickly as possible. Cyndi always answered our calls, always responded to texts and emails quickly, and was extremely attentive to us. I am truly amazed as to how she always made herself available to us. Cyndi will have your back, and will walk you through every step of the home buying process. I recommend her to Everyone! And someday in the future if/when we are ready for a new home, I will definitely be calling Cyndi. She is the Best real estate rep you could have beside you!

My family and I enjoyed working with Cyndi. She always responded immediately, no matter what, and definately kept all of us in the loop. She was very easy to talk to and work with, especially since this was my first undertaking as far as selling a home. Plus, she had so much enthusiasum and a real 'let's do this' attitude. Got me a great price for my home, yet I never felt like I wasn't ultimately in control. Once our home was ready to go, it sold immediately. A great experience. My father (whose home I was selling) is 95, and Cyndi was always considerate of his feelings and needs.

Highly likely to recommend - 5.0I have been working with Cyndi for the last decade. She is the best realtor I worked with, and has handled all my real estate needs - buy, sell, rent, you name it. She is extremely knowledge about the market and knows every detail about every city in Orange county and beyond. She is always on top of everything. Never once she didn't reply my phone, text, or email right away, even weekends or holidays. This year Cyndi helped me and my wife purchased our 3rd house. And in this crazy market it took us almost 6 months. Cyndi toured countless houses with us, wrote up over a dozen offers, and kept in touch with seller agents on daily basis. We finally got the house we both like, without paying arms and legs. In this market, if you are a buyer, you will need someone like Cyndi - she will get you your dream house, no matter how hard the journey will be.

Cyndi is incredibly informative and knowledgeable for my first time home buying experience. She did her homework any time we did a tour of a home and I just felt that I was in good hands throughout the entire process. She's an OC native and has a vast network that allowed us to expedite the loan and inspection process! She's also very direct and gets things done timely! Can't go wrong with Cyndi!

We have worked with Cyndi on 2 home purchases and 2 home sales. Buying and selling homes is inherently stressful, but Cyndi makes the process as smooth as possible. She keeps you informed and explains every step of the process, and gets you to a point where you know she's working in your best interest so you can relax and let her run things. In our latest home sale, it felt like it was over in the blink of an eye - she helped us get beautiful photos, marketed it well, ran two open houses, and got us under contract two days later. We highly recommend working with Cyndi!

We were interested in a second home in Huntington Beach. We live in Las Vegas so we knew no one in the area. I stumbled upon Cyndi via her website and as luck would have it we struck gold. I contacted Cyndi about an interest in a property close to the beach. When we met her she had a book prepared with all the properties we would look at for the day and a map of the area. She lives in the area in knows each property very well. We decided on a property and she was helpful every step of the way. Living out of town she helped us through the home inspection and even volunteered to open the place to get the floors installed, while we are still out of town. If you are looking for a place in Orange County, Cyndi is your best bet to find it. Brian and Denise - 3/4/2014

This is one knock your socks off Real estate agent. She sold two condos for me at a higher price than I thought possible. One sold with listing on the MLS for one day. Another she negotiated extremely well under difficult circumstances and got us a very good deal. She also went above and beyond in assisting in required renovations and we got the highest ever comparable price in the market. She is extremely experienced and doesn't waste your time.
I Highly recommend Cindy Mino for the H.B. and surrounding areas.

If I could give Cyndi 10 stars, I would. Cyndi was the most professional, pleasant, hardworking person I've had the pleasure of knowing! She is incredibly tech savvy. She made our life easier by having us sign documents digitally. Additionally, she was great about knowing whether something should be discussed via phone call/email or something minor via text (great for us homebuyers with little ones and jobs!). I feel like I went into battle with Cyndi. Our first homebuying experience wasn't as pleasant as we imagined (nothing to do with her or us -- the other party was incredibly difficult and unprofessional), but she went above and beyond the call of duty. She was always one step ahead and very much had our best interest. She was always adding addendums to protect us legally, which I appreciated. When the other party was trying to hide out, Cyndi was chasing them down (literally). I love Cyndi - - as a person too. She was fabulous to work with and despite getting settled into our new home FINALLY.. I do miss her. Are you supposed to get this attached to your real estate agent? It doesn't matter if you are supposed to or not because you just will. She's fabulous.

If you are looking for a realtor that is honest, trustworthy, very responsive, patient and persistent, look no further! Cyndi helped us buy our first home, and she was phenomenal throughout every step of the process. She was always extremely quick to respond to emails and phone calls. No question that I had seemed too tedious - she took all of them very seriously. I did not feel pressured to buy something that was out of my budget or that I did not love. We made offers on multiple homes, and at no point did Cyndi lose momentum. One home came on the market at 7am, she met me at 11am to see it, and we had an offer in by 3pm that afternoon - how great is that? That home is now my home thanks to Cyndi's help throughout the entire purchasing and escrow process (she is still answering questions that have come up after we moved in!!).I cannot recommend Cyndi enough - you can trust that you are in good hands with her!

Cyndi was our listing agent during the selling of a property. She did her homework and listed it at great price. She listed the property, and a day latter had an open house; where we had an offer at above asking price. She responded promptly to all our questions. She is very efficient and went the extra mile to get the transaction done. Oh, let me add, she was also our buyer agent as looked to buy a new property for the 1031X. She took us to places and helped us found our next property. Again, she got things done! If you are looking for an agent who is caring, efficient, who goes the extra mile for you to sell or buy your property, then you found it-Cyndi is the one!!!

Cyndi is an AMAZING real estate agent. We are moving cross country to Orange County which poses many challenges but Cyndi made it happen for us! We have consulted with her over the past two years and she patiently listened, showed us homes and asked questions which helped us identify what we wanted in our new home. She went above and beyond to show us homes both 'in-person' and virtually including FaceTiming with us to meet with a home inspector about the home we just purchased. She helped us find contractors to make desired changes before we arrive and has even been willing to check in on the remodel project for us. I highly recommend Cyndi as an outstanding agent who provides stellar client service.

That home is now my home thanks to Cyndi's help throughout the entire purchasing and escrow process (she is still answering questions that have come up after we moved in!!). I cannot recommend Cyndi enough - you can trust that you are in good hands with her!

"I have used other realtors in the past and I can say that Cyndi is the most driven and knowledgeable realtor that I have met. She takes care of everything from start to finish and is very good at explaining the details to her customers. In the future, when I need a realtor again, I will undoubtedly call Cyndi."

“I contacted Cyndi through Zillow and wanted a home walkable to the beach - some place I could walk my 3 year old granddaughter. I also like to take long walks on the beach and wanted to be along the coast from Santa Monica to San Clemente. Cyndi and I looked one day in Long Beach and one day in Huntington Beach. Cyndi looked only for places within less then a mile to the beach, preferably on the water. I wanted at least a 2 bedroom home that needed no work. I live in France for 6 months out of the year and then spend the other 6 months here with family and I wanted them to be able to stay with me too. Cyndi listened to exactly what I wanted and found the homes that best fit my needs. She found me the perfect home and had to negotiate directly with the seller, not another realtor or a company. She worked really hard to make the deal successful for everybody! I am thrilled that I have a view of the harbor to use my kayak and walk right across the street to the beach. Thanks, Cyndi!!”

Cyndi just sold a property for me. Based on her expertise and advice, the property entered into escrow within a week of being listed and sold at $10k over listing. As important as anything, because I am a professional very tied up in my work, she was tenacious in making me focus. A true professional!!

Cyndi is all of the above and more. She has been on time every time we met at the property. She is extremely thorough in every phase of the selling process. Quick to respond, even when she was on vacation.
I've known Cyndi for over 50 years, yes 50! That is not why I retain her professional services. (She also was the leasing agent for the same property). She is my Agent because she is the best!

Cyndi Mino was a dream come true for our family. She takes the time to get to know your entire family and their needs for a home. We felt very comfortable with her knowledge and expertise in finding our perfect home. Cyndi always had our best interest and is extremely honest, which is so rare in today's world. She has a wonderful eye for detail and , with her extensive knowledge of homes, was able to see potential problems I was unaware of. She would send me daily updates of new properties and would meet me at a monents notice if a home fit all my criteria and needed a look. Cyndi is very calm and collected, never rushing, and always put in as much time as needed. We would not have found our dream home without her. I have recommended her time and time again and not only consider her our Realtor, but now also a friend.

Buying or selling a home is an intimidating and stressful process but having an agent like Cyndi makes all the difference. She is professional and friendly and is there every step of the way. My husband and I have had nothing but great homebuying/homeselling experiences with her as our agent.

Cyndi is very well organized and has good knowledge of the local market. I had to rely upon her for almost everything--such as staging, minor repairs to the property etc since I live 60 miles away from the property. Her willingness to go extra miles helped me with the sale of the property.

Cyndi was the best! She answered all our questions and was quick to respond. She was very patient with us and helped us understand the process as we were first time home buyers. Honestly the process couldn't have gone more smoothly and I know it was all thanks to Cyndi. You will love working with her!!

We were first introduced to Cyndi at an open house in the Belmont Heights area of Long Beach. After speaking with her and explaining our wants and needs for our first house purchase. We were fairly specific about wanting a charming 30's or 40's long beach home in the Bixby/Cal Heights area. Cyndi immediately set up an automated MLS listing feed that would update when new homes went on the market. This was very helpful for us to get a jump on properties we were interested in viewing. We looked at about 7 different homes before finally making an offer on a house. What made Cyndi unique is that she never tried to sell us on anything. She was very honest about possible upgrades needed for the home, repairs, and other issues we may not have thought about. When we finally decided on the home we made our offer the day of the open house (Cyndi's Idea). The seller ended up with multiple offers on the first day of the listing. He ended up gling with our offer with the guidance from Cyndi. Cyndi was very thorough and punctual handling the bidding situation with multiple offers. We had a 30 day escrow and everything went really smooth as Cyndi was always coordinating with the lender, the listing agent, the seller and myself to keep things moving in the right direction. We ended up with a perfect house in a great, charming part of Long Beach to raise our children. I would highly recommend Cyndi for any of your real estate needs. We will certainly use Cyndi in the future!

Cyndi is the best! I turned to her again to help me sell my condo I bought with her 4 years ago! She handled everything for me while I was traveling abroad and it sold very quickly and above list price! She is very responsive, flexible and helpful and I would absolutely recommend her to help you buy or sell.

Cyndi's knowledge of the real estate market is top notch. She is very sharp, fast in responses yet always professional. Also, she seems to have a great network system, so she can act fast. Cyndi is a go-getter, an excellent sales person, with great people skills. She is very reliable. All these skills, bundled with years of experience, makes for an excellent realtor. She sold our home very quickly and got us into our dream home equally as fast, while we were out of town! I would highly recommend her to anybody.

Cyndi is very efficient at what she does. She helped us sale our property very fast. We had an offer over the asking price after the first open house. One thing I really appreciated was her proptness and attention to detail. Not only she assisted us on selling our property, but also in finding a new one. Thank you Cyndi!!!!

Cyndi did a fantastic job from start to finish with our listing. There were a number of challenges and obstacles along the way that she handled very well while keeping us informed on a regular basis. The engagement with the various buyer prospects and documentation flow went smoothly and ultimately the deal was completed successfully.

I found Cyndi by chance when I was inquiring about a property I'd seen on Zillow. The three things I love best about her are: (1) she never pressured me to go view properties and never made lame suggestions about what I could do with a place, but let me do my own assessment; (2) she was incredibly efficient and answered all my questions about the availability of properties, their history, etc., and (3) she was prompt, prompt, prompt!! I never had to wait for a response to any emails or texts. Cyndi's personality was a perfect match for my husband, too. She's just such a good listener and so very professional, and that made my husband willing to work with her on every aspect of this transaction as well. I don't see how anyone, buyer or seller, could go wrong working with Cyndi as their realtor.

We have worked with Cyndi on 2 home purchases and 2 home sales. Buying and selling homes is inherently stressful, but Cyndi makes the process as smooth as possible. She keeps you informed and explains every step of the process, and gets you to a point where you know she's working in your best interest so you can relax and let her run things. In our latest home sale, it felt like it was over in the blink of an eye - she helped us get beautiful photos, marketed it well, ran two open houses, and got us under contract two days later. We highly recommend working with Cyndi!

Cyndi without a doubt is the best Real Estate professional we have worked with. My wife and I were buying the house long distance, Cyndi found us the perfect home matching our requirements. She helped us through the whole process....inspection, escrow, closing, etc., and made it stress free. Cyndi made us comfortable through the whole process. We definitely recommend her.

This is one knock your socks off Real estate agent. She sold two condos for me at a higher price than I thought possible. One sold with listing on the MLS for one day. Another she negotiated extremely well under difficult circumstances and got us a very good deal. She also went above and beyond in assisting in required renovations and we got the highest ever comparable price in the market. She is extremely experienced and doesn't waste your time. I Highly recommend Cindy Mino for the H.B. and surrounding areas.

After doing much research and due diligence prior to selecting an agent, there was no other choice. We had to select Cyndi Mino, and will absolutely continue to use her in the future. I can't even begin to describe how happy we were with Cyndi and her whole process. Cyndi helped us both buy and sell our homes at the same time. Buying a home is hard. Selling a home is hard. You NEED experience, honesty, trust and a great attitude from the agent you select. No matter how unreasonable you become, and trust me you will become unreasonable at some point during a real estate transaction. You need someone to fight for you, talk you off the ledge, and give you the right advise- even if it means they loose the sale. Cyndi has these necissary intangibles. She honestly cares for her clients and we felt that throughout the entire 5 months we worked with her. Cyndi Mino is one of the most professional people I have ever come across. She is THE bar that all real estate agents should be measured by. I am extremely happy that we chose Cyndi to represent us and I would not hesitate for a second to recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home! Thank you Cyndi!

We worked with Cyndi on both the sale of our condo and the purchase of a new home. In both experiences, Cyndi proved time and again that she truly cares about her clients and has their best interests at heart. Trying to do both at the same time was extremely stressful for us, especially as we had two buyers back out - our fault, not hers, and in fact this means she helped us with 4 sales! - and she was always available for a phone call to walk us through the next steps and to make sure we weren't forgetting anything. Then, when we were looking for our new home, she very quickly got the feel for our price range and taste, and she did a great job suggesting properties. And when we took interest in a new place, she was extremely quick to speak with the listing agent to get us all the details on the seller's needs and the general market interest to help us position ourselves well with our offer. In the end, we couldn't have imagined working with anyone else. Thanks Cyndi!

As a first time home buyer I was not sure what to expect throughout the home purchasing process. Cyndi was very knowledgeable and extremely helpful in making sure I knew what was happening at all times. Her attentiveness is second to none. She even responded to my emails and text messages when she was out of the country on vacation. I highly recommend Cyndi to anyone that is looking for a realtor.

Cyndi has sold multiple property's for us over the years including our home that just closed. All of them went seamlessly. She pays attention to detail. She is ALWAYS on time, every time.
She is always quick to respond and always available, even if she's on vacation!
We will continue to use her 'seasoned professional services' when ever the time comes again.
SIX STARS!!!

I had been searching for a place to buy for over a year. In this time I had met with many Real Estate agents, but they were all pushy and sales motivated. When I finally got lucky enough to meet Cyndi I knew that I was going to work with her. There was zero stress, zero pressure and she was there for me every step of the way. As a first time homebuyer there were many things about the home buying process I did not know. When we hit bumps in the road, she leveraged her contacts for us. For example, my original loan fell through. She was able to get us in contact with another loan provider and we ended up getting an interest rate the was over a point lower than what my original lender had to offer. The loan ended up closing in less than three weeks. My other provider quoted a 60 day closing. Not only was she able to find someone who offered a lower interest rate but she really helped with negotiating the price of the home. Once we had our home appraised the home value was 35K over the purchasing price!!! I would honestly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

Cyndi was our listing agent during the selling of a property. She did her homework and listed at a great price. She listed, a day latter had an open house; where we had an offer above asking price. She responded promptly to all our questions. She is very efficient and went the extra mile to get the transaction done. She was also our buying agent as we looked for buy a new property. She took us to see places and helped us found our new property. Again, she git things done!. If you are you looking for an agent who is caring, efficient and will go the extra mile for you; then you found her-Cyndi i the one!!

Cyndi is a fantastic realtor! I moved across the country during COVID-19 and she was an essential part of the process. She has great communication and took the time to find out what I was really looking for. She was able to preview all the homes I was interested in and find out nuanced information that is essential when you can't see before you buy. I'd definitely work with her again.

I am so grateful to have had Cyndi represent me and my husband, and help us purchase our first home! From our very first meeting she was professional and extremely helpful, providing us with sample documents of what to expect during the home buying process. I shared with her the locations I was interested in, features that were must haves (multiple parking spaces, patio), and features that were desired. Immediately she started pulling listings that matched our desires, and we found a perfect condo near the beach in Huntington. She helped guide us on to how to make an offer, which successfully lowered the asking price! Once the home buyer process officially began, Cyndi was available every moment to answer all questions we had, fill out forms properly and quickly. She 100% had our backs and truly cared that inspections were done properly, and ensured everything was in order. Our purchase process was different than normal since we were a utilizing down payment assistance program. This program caused delays in the buying process, but Cyndi was there to reassure us, and to push for document processing to be done as quickly as possible. Cyndi always answered our calls, always responded to texts and emails quickly, and was extremely attentive to us. I am truly amazed as to how she always made herself available to us. Cyndi will have your back, and will walk you through every step of the home buying process. I recommend her to Everyone! And someday in the future if/when we are ready for a new home, I will definitely be calling Cyndi. She is the Best real estate rep you could have beside you!

Cyndi Mino is the best real estate agent we have worked with. She has been instrumental in our search for a vacation home. Cyndi has the knowledge and experience we were looking for. She is responsive and her follow through is exceptional. She will quickly educate us in areas of real estate in which we lack knowledge. We highly recommend her!

Cyndi is incredibly informative and knowledgeable for my first time home buying experience. She did her homework any time we did a tour of a home and I just felt that I was in good hands throughout the entire process. She’s an OC native and has a vast network that allowed us to expedite the loan and inspection process! She’s also very direct and gets things done timely! Can’t go wrong with Cyndi

Cyndi is professional and just so helpful. I definitely highly recommend her! She knew what she was doing at every level and she definitely went above and beyond with her support. When I had questions she was not only quick with the answer but she anticipated what I might ask next and even had answers to questions I didn't know to ask. Cyndi had my interests in mind as a seller so she took the time it takes to get the best value for my home.

If you are looking for a realtor that is honest, trustworthy, very responsive, patient and persistent, look no further! Cyndi helped us buy our first home, and she was phenomenal throughout every step of the process. She was always extremely quick to respond to emails and phone calls. No question that I had seemed too tedious - she took all of them very seriously. I did not feel pressured to buy something that was out of my budget or that I did not love. We made offers on multiple homes, and at no point did Cyndi lose momentum. One home came on the market at 7am, she met me at 11am to see it, and we had an offer in by 3pm that afternoon - how great is that?
