Scot Gentry – Ascent Real Estate

Scot is awesome. We used him to purchase our first home and he was not only helpful but very attentive. He listened to what we were looking for and didn’t pressure us to make a decision before we were ready. He is honest and hardworking and make this process enjoyable.
Thanks for everything Scot!

Scot gets 5 stars because he earned it and he is a great realtor. He assisted us in the sale of our home. We had the unfortunate timing of listing our house right before Washington decided to shut down our government. Scot not only kept us positive during this time, he kept me sane.
Selling a home is a very stressful experience but Scot and Nicole kept plugging away, holding open houses, doing whatever they could to make this happen. Scot went way above what any other realtor has ever done for us. We had already left the state, he not only kept us informed on our property weekly — he swept up those unruly Bougainville leaves that tend to fall off and gather around our entrance!
I can’t say enough good things about him. He was a pleasure to work with. If you are looking to sell or buy a home in San Diego area Scot will get the job done for you.

We have used Scot twice. Our first home took over a year to find and Scot was very patient and supportive of us. We were first time home buyers and had no clue about what was involved. Scot walked us through the process and was always there when we needed him. Luckily our second home only took 2 months to find. I would highly recommend Scot.
Bonus– Scot also did a kick-​butt job in selling our house (got more than what we asked!)

My wife and I were first time home buyers and Scot came highly recommended from our close friends. Scot was great at explaining everything from the basics to the complex. He was available the whole way through escrow and went above and beyond when we needed to investigate. He even went down to the City and waited in line to pull sewer drawings and plans when we couldn’t determine where our connection was!
Highly recommended, 5 stars aren’t enough.

Scot was great through the whole process of searching for a house. He was honest and would give us a lot of helpful information that we needed as first time buyers. He would respond to my calls and e-​mails quickly. On top of all that, he was very personable and friendly. I really enjoyed working with Scot. Although we ended up not buying a house (we decided to move back to the Bay Area), Scot was great and never pressured us into anything. He thinks searching for a house is a process and respects the steps his clients go through to find exactly what they want. I hope we can find an awesome agent like him when we decide to buy a house in the Bay Area!

I recently had the opportunity of working with Scot here in San Diego. My wife and I were looking for a home here, and Scot took all the fears out of our first time buying experience. He was very patient, listened to what we wanted, and was always available to help us when we needed. He took us around San Diego, and I never felt as though he was pushing us into anything. I would definitely recommend working with Scot. He is very professional, and also truly cares that his clients find exactly what they’re looking for.

Scot is really a wonderful realtor who takes all of the «scary» out of the overwhelming process of buying a home. When my husband and I started looking for a place, Scot listened very carefully to what we were looking for, and took the time to educate us on our options. He suggested some neighborhoods we hadn’t thought to consider… including Del Cerro, where we actually ended up buying, and where we have now lived happily for the last two years!
If you are considering buying or selling a home, it’s important to work with someone you trust and actually like — Scot will take great care of you!

We were first-​time home-​buyers and we had an amazing experience with Scot! He always made us feel like we were his top priority. I never once felt like he didn’t have time — throughout the process — to show us homes, take our phone calls, explain confusing terminology, etc. He was there for us whenever we needed anything! We required a ton of hand-​holding and education — and Scot provided that without making us feel stupid. We appreciated his patience and kind guidance and calm nature so much! As far as problem solving skills and «going to bat for us», Scot not only went above and beyond our expectations — but continues to assist us with questions and issues that have come up. In many ways, having Scot as our agent made all the difference for us. We felt so lucky to have him in our corner. We can’t say enough nice things — and would we recommend Scot (and Rex Downing Assoc.) without hesitation.

Scot is a real gem, which is hard to find in the rough and tumble world of real estate. Part realtor, part psychologist, and part friend, Scot will help you navigate the pitfalls and joys of buying a home without losing your sanity. He is a consummate professional and gives sound, credible advice. He also has a great sense of humor, which, as I’ve learned, is very necessary when looking for a home. I can’t recommend him highly enough!
