Testimonials-

What Just A Few of Our Satisfied Clients Have Said:

Hey guys,

We can't begin to tell you how much we appreciate all the hard work that you put into selling our house. We received the same top-notch service that we got from you many years ago when we sold our condo, and it's refreshing to see that while your client base has grown, your dedication to customer service remains the same! (See our previous testimonial below also!)

You're the best!

Thanks again for everything,

Keri and Jim Lamar- Sellers Mission Viejo

"I am writing this note to any future potential clients of Diane and John Cirignani. If you are going to purchase a home, it is a huge investment and you need to work with someone who will take the time to do it right! John and Diane are a fantastic team! They made me feel like family and are a model for any organization that wants to improve their customer service. I would recommend Diane and John to anyone looking to sell or purchase a home! Please feel free to contact me for a reference. It's hard to find exceptional people in any industry and when you do I believe you should share that information."
Ted Matosich, New Homeowner- Aliso Viejo

"My wife and I recently sold our condominium in the Laguna Audubon area of Aliso Viejo through the assistance of our real estate agent, Diane Cirignani. Prior to listing our condo on the market, we spoke with several neighbors who were also selling their homes. They relayed a variety of problems with various agents, ranging from non-responsiveness to heated arguments. As a result, my expectations of finding a good agent were not high, and I decided to list our home For Sale By Owner.
Shortly thereafter, my wife spoke with Diane, and was impressed with her professionalism and knowledge. My wife convinced me to list our home with Diane and I could not have been more pleased with the results!
I was impressed with Diane from our very first meeting. She carefully led us through the process and made us aware of some of the pitfalls we could experience with potential buyers. In pricing our condo, Diane drew from prior sales information, her intimate knowledge of the floor plans, amenities and location of other condos for sale in our complex. Most importantly, her main focus was not on pricing the condo low for a "quick sale" or listing it high only to ask for a price reduction later, but instead she listed it at a price that she knew we would be happy with, yet left enough flexibility for negotiation.
Diane was always available and immediately returned ore telephone calls. When there was a new development, such as an offer, Diane promptly notified us and drafted a counter-offer. Her customer service skills are excellent, and her interaction with potential buyers and other agents is top notch in all respects.
Diane sold our condo in only three weeks, and our profit was exactly what we had hoped for. In fact, it sold higher than any two bedroom in our complex had ever sold for which set a new pricing high for future sales.
Diane is an incredible agent! She is both professional and confident. Diane's character and personality set her far above the rest. She demonstrates integrity, dedication, and a great work ethic. We will highly recommend Diane to our friends and family!"
Jim & Keri La Mar, Sellers on Night Heron Lane- Aliso Viejo

"Diane & John Cirignani both sold and bought properties for us! They tried to make the transitions from one to another go as smoothly as possible and at the same time, kept us up to date with important information. They make you feel as though you have a friend in your corner, not just a real estate agent. Our needs in finding a home were quite a task for them but they seemed to handle it with a great deal of confidence. While out driving one Saturday morning looking around for ourselves in a particular neighborhood that we liked, we came upon Diane knocking on doors to see if someone would be interested in selling their property since there was nothing else available at the time. This is when we realized just how hard she was really trying to fulfill our dreams of owning a single family home- and she found one! We moved from a condo into a single story home which we had thought at one time would only be a dream for us until we crossed paths with the Cirignani's. They are quite a team & will work hard for you to get your home sold and get you into that dream home! Good luck to you and you family in your search."
The Russell Family, Sellers on Night Heron Lane- Aliso Viejo & Buyers in Lag. Hills

"I would like to thank you for all your help in completing the sale of my home. You are an outstanding real estate agent and you did an excellent job handling all the details, especially since I was out of the country during the sale! If we ever require real estate in Orange County again, you will be the first person I call"
David Stanley, Seller- Aliso Viejo

"I had a really good experience working with John and Diane Cirignani! They really went out of their way to show me homes in my price range and they really knew the Aliso Viejo area. They were honest & upfront about the pros and cons of different properties which I really appreciated. I felt like both of them were working in my best interest. They were really easy to get a hold of for all of my questions and were just really, really great!! Thank you so much Century 21 for having these knowledgeable and great agents! I will definitely refer any of my friends who are looking to buy in the near future to them!"
Kim Graham, Buyer, Aliso Viejo

Dear Diane,
Frank and I want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for finding the perfect property for us. The professional dedication you gave to us month after month was far superior to any agent we have used in the past 32 years involving the purchase and sale of 15 houses!
Every step we took with you from the first meeting to the closing of our house was a truthful and pleasant experience.
As an Interior Designer, I look forward to referring you to my clients with real estate needs.
Wishing you the very best in the future.
Sincerely,
Frank & Rosie Brewer
Buyer - Aliso Viejo

A Few Excerpts Taken From Century 21 Superstars
Monthly Corporate Publication in 2000:

May, 2000:
"Dedicated, honest and in love with the real estate business? That's Diane Cirignani, who in a short time has become one of the South County's most successful agents!

Excellent customer service is her hallmark. Prior to Joining Professional Real Estate, which has since merged with Century 21 Superstars, Diane and her husband owned a pizza restaurant in Del Mar, where quality customer service and an excellent product helped develop an intensely loyal client base.

Diane's formula for success is working- balancing her precious family life and putting up great numbers is helping to grow her business daily with another Million+ Month."

June, 2000:
"Team Cirignani" is alive and well!! Top Producer Diane Cirignani has been joined by her husband, John, in trying to keep up with all of the repeat and referral business Diane's past clients have been sending her way.

South Orange County's Top Listings and Top Sales Agent for the 2nd Quarter. Diane's work ethic is unmatched! Now, with John's help, it appears that they are in a position to do more business than ever!

Congratulations to the hard-working couple on another impressive Million Dollar+ Month in June!"

August, 2000:
"We all know what Diane Cirignani has done selling real estate on her own, so when she was joined in the business a couple months back by her husband, John, expectations rose even higher.

Well, it appears that Diane and John have not only met those expectations, they've exceeded them! By selling over $1.5 Million worth of homes in August, Diane and John have made it clear that two Cirignani's are even better than one. Real estate expertise coupled with pleasant, engaging and determined personalities make the Cirignani's an unbeatable team!"

September, 2000:
"The Cirignani team just keeps getting better! Diane and John continued their remarkable success story in September, posting consecutive million-dollar months and continuing to win over client with their fantastic service.

These former restaurant owners know a thing or two about what brings customers back, and their dedication to quality service is at the top at that list. Congratulations!"
