When we decided to sell our SW Escondido home, we chose Cindy to represent us. We were impressed with her excellent reputation and her expertise in handling a previous transaction. She sold the house promptly and professionally at a great price, getting the job done faster than we thought possible, especially during a pandemic. Cindy was there for us whenever we had questions – day or night. She walked us through important decisions along the way and helped us determine exactly what to do to prepare the house for a successful sale. My husband and I can not say enough about Cindy — Her years of experience in the industry and great personality helped us sell the house very quickly. Thank you, Cindy!

“My husband and I have bought and sold several houses over the years and we highly recommend Cindy Waasdorp for your Realtor. She is very professional and from her years of experience will guide you through every aspect of the transaction! She will also make suggestions to help prepare your house for sale and keep you informed of what’s happening every step of the way. Simply put: She has been doing this a long time and knows her business!”

“I highly recommend Cindy Waasdorp, if you are interested in selling your home. She helped us through an emotional process as we readied my mother’s home in Hidden Meadows for sale. She suggested necessary fix-ups/repairs, but only those that would facilitate getting the best price without expending alot of time and money. We followed her advice and the house sold in one day! She was always there to help us through the escrow process in a friendly and efficient manner. She made a difficult, emotional process so much easier! We couldn’t be more pleased!
Audrey G.
“I highly recommend Cindy for both buyers and sellers! When a family member passed away, we hired Cindy Waasdorp to represent the sale of the house. Because we live out of the area, it was important that our Realtor meet with contractors and generally oversee the care of the home during the listing period. Cindy was wonderful! She consistently met all of our expectations and went above and beyond to ensure that the house was properly readied for sale. She coordinated access with our contractors, made great recommendations for gardening and cleaning services and even ran errands to pick up some materials that were needed last minute! During the listing period, Cindy continued to make our lives easier by doing all that she could to support us in our absence. We were very satisfied with the manner in which Cindy handled negotiations with the buyer. She’s a great communicator and kept us updated throughout the sale process. Our situation would have been very difficult without Cindy’s help, and we are truly grateful for all of her efforts. I cannot imagine finding another Realtor that would have helped us as much as she did during a difficult time.
It was truly a pleasure working with you, and we wish you continued success in your real estate business!”

“This note is in regard to the outstanding experience we had with Realtor Cindy Waasdorp and the sale of our home in Escondido. We decided to interview Realtors. We interviewed several and were disappointed by their lack of ingenuity. We were interested in the bottom line, but also wanted sparkle and shine… that’s exactly when Cindy Waasdorp walked through the door and immediately saw the value of our home, which went far beyond its monetary worth. Cindy was well prepared for the meeting and, while we discussed price and selling strategies, her primary focus was on us; she listened to our input. Cindy’s positive, smart and realistic approach is why we hired her on the spot. We had 3 offers on our home and accepted one that was $20,000 over asking price. Cindy’s expertise – specifically her marketing skills – got the job done in record time.
What makes Cindy unique is the care and concern she has for her clients. Cindy always answered her phone, responded to questions and coordinated activities in a timely and thorough manner. She didn’t rely on anyone to take over after we signed the contract – When you hire Cindy, you get Cindy.. all day, every day. She provided us with guidance throughout the entire process. Her calm and reassuring demeanor greatly reduced our stress. With over three decades of experience in real estate, it’s obvious that Cindy loves to sell homes. Her enthusiasm is contagious! We have sold numerous properties before this one and can say without a doubt, Cindy Waasdorp is the best Realtor with whom we’ve worked. Cindy is top notch. We couldn’t be more pleased with Cindy or the outcome of our experience.”
Best, Janet and Rick
“When the time came to sell our home in Rancho Verde, we decided to work with Cindy Waasdorp for many reasons. Among her very impressive credentials, Ms. Waasdorp is rated the #1 Agent in our zip code, one of the Top Ten Agents in San Diego County and the Top 1% of Agents Nationwide. When we first met with Ms. Waasdorp, we were quickly able to determine that her marketing and selling strategies were extremely professional and compelling. She made sure that the entire process ran like clockwork. From her review of our property and pricing, to the MLS listing (with a perfect description of our house and property, photographs taken by her top-notch photographer and a beautiful virtual tour) to a stunning full-color professionally printed brochure, Ms. Waasdorp’s work approach drew many high qualified, serious potential buyers. As a result of her expertise, we were under contract literally within one week. Once under contract, she worked with the Buyer’s Realtor as a true partner to accomplish the sale of our home.
Throughout the entire process, Ms. Waasdorp was extremely responsive – returning calls, texts and emails immediately. She was highly professional and followed through on every aspect of the paperwork required throughout. So, if you decide to sell your home and/or look for a new home, we strongly recommend that you call Cindy Waasdorp. In our book, she truly is #1.”
Chuck and Linda Hannes
“My husband and I are so very pleased with the professional and focused guidance that Cindy Waasdorp provided. Her marketing of our home included 1/2 page color newspaper ads, website advertising, professional photography and printed brochures. The house sold in under 2 weeks and we credit Cindy for making this happen. We will definitely choose Cindy for our next home sale.”
Cathy Platt
“I found Cindy Waasdorp to be a knowledgeable, professional, attentive, patient, helpful and pleasant real estate agent and I highly recommend her! As trustee of an estate, I was in charge of selling my parents’ out-of-town home, a formidable task. I had many questions along the way, and Cindy always responded quickly and expertly, working with me at every step. She provided solid support from evaluating the value, to suggesting fixes, to recommending responsible contractors, to advertising the property, working with potential buyers, handling paperwork and more. She’s experienced and trustworthy, and, she is a pleasure to work with. I am very thankful that my estate attorney led me to Cindy!”
Margaret Farr
“Cindy has sold two homes for me. Before I had met Cindy, I had listed the first home with two different Realtors – the first one took months to sell it and then was not experienced enough to handle the normal problems that can come up in an escrow, resulting with it falling out. With the second Realtor, my home fell out of escrow twice one week prior to closing. I met Cindy, she took over and sold my home quickly with zero problems for the full price I had been asking! I listed a second home with Cindy and she sold it in one week, again for full price.
I would highly recommend Cindy for a stress free home sale.”
Sondra and William Ray
“First, we would like to say thank you for all of your hard work. Cindy is a great professional, with a strong work ethic and integrity. We loved working with her. She kept us on track and sent us reminders as deadlines neared. She has a great eye for details. We will definitely recommend her to our friends.”
Barbara and Harry Constance
“Cindy Waasdorp is the Best! We would never work with anyone else, either buying or selling. She and her staff are the most honest, straight-talking and friendly people we’ve met and we consider them good friends. We have recommended Cindy to our family and friends and she never lets them down. She is prompt with her responses to our calls, professional, knows everything about North County and gives great advice.”
Doddie Giganti
“Due to a job change, I moved to North County in 1984 from Los Angeles. I didn’t know the area and landed in Escondido. My children and I were living in an apartment while we were looking for a home. Cindy helped find my dream home!
In those days, everything was spread out. Cindy took me to all of the neighborhoods – from rural ranch-style homes with cows and horses next door to tract homes. After some thought and serious discussion about what I really wanted in a home, she showed me the home that was just what I was looking for. When I walked in the front door, I knew I was home.
Cindy was right there for me during all of the steps that it took to become a homeowner. She answered all the questions I had, even if I asked again the next day.That’s been 21 years now, and I am still happy to walk into that door! OK, maybe it’s a different door, but it’s in the same spot! They say I’m in the minority with staying in one place so long, but I figure why change if I’m happy? Thank you Cindy for helping me find my dream home.”
Ruth and Roger Williams
“After living in our home for almost 25 years, we had no idea what to expect when it came time to sell and relocate. For us, it was a very stressful time, but Cindy stepped in and helped guide us through all of the aspects of the sales process from pre-planning and needed upgrades through the sale and close of escrow. Thanks, Cindy!”
Paul & June Sterngold
“We worked with Cindy Waasdorp to sell our Escondido home during the worst market in years. She made clear, articulate recommendations about how to sell it, and they worked! At every step, Cindy explained ahead of time what to expect and how things would work. In addition, she sweats the details and was personally involved during the entire sale. She is tireless and a wonderful advocate. Most importantly, Cindy always acted with the highest integrity and professionalism. She gets our highest recommendation!”
Charles S. Nathan
“If you are looking for a good real estate agent, either to buy or sell a property, you need look no further than Cindy Waasdorp. First, you should know about me that I am very demanding, have high standards for everything I do, and have been labeled “perfectionist” and similar sobriquets all of my life. I had noticed an article about Cindy in the newspaper, years before I would need her help, and saved it. When the time came, I interviewed Cindy and two other agents for the job of listing my Escondido home. Wisely, I chose Cindy. First she advised me that the market was so bad that ‘if I didn’t have to sell, I should not list my home at that time’. Then she sold my home in just six days! With more than 25 years experience selling North County real estate, Cindy has won many awards and no doubt will win many more. That is not why I recommend Cindy to you. Through a 90-day escrow she was at all times readily available to me, by telephone and by e-mail, with the answers and information I needed. More often than not, she called me first. You may look elsewhere for comparison if you like, and perhaps you should. In my opinion, you can not do better than Cindy.”

“After talking to a number of real estate agents in the San Marcos/Escondido area, it became quickly apparent that Cindy Waasdorp was the best qualified. She listed my father’s home, coordinating all aspects of the sale. Cindy coordinated the showings respectful of my father’s (90 years young) need for privacy during the early morning and evening hours. After four days on the market with numerous showings and offers, we decided on which buyer to negotiate with based primarily on Cindy’s recommendation. Cindy actually structured a deal where my father got $10,000 dollars more than the original asking price and had the convenience of remaining in possession for a month after closing to coordinate a cross-country move. Start to finish, this sale took 3 weeks. This was by far the quickest, easiest sale of a home I have ever experienced in my 40 years of home buying/selling. I would without reservation recommend Cindy Waasdorp to any of my friends in the San Marcos area. She is top of the line.”
Gwen Tellegen
“Cindy and her team were tremendously responsive, resourceful and diligent in the two real estate transactions they handled for us this past year. Since our family was moving to Escondido from another area, she helped us to schedule the required meetings and inspections in such a manner to minimize our trips and set us up with an excellent supporting staff for funding and inspections.In addition, Cindy kept on top of both of our out of area home sales’ progress, ensuring the timely closing of both transactions. Finally, Cindy has continued to provide us with a wealth of information on our new community with referrals and her monthly newsletter.”
James & Kris Deutch
“We were moving out of state and had a very short window of time in which to sell our house. From day one, Cindy Waasdorp began advertising and setting up open houses to give our home maximum visibility. She handled every detail and, in less than one month, our home was sold and escrow closed. Cindy made this an easy and stress-free transaction, and we highly recommend her.”
Ken & Diane Langejans
“Cindy, thank you so much for all your help in selling our home in San Marcos! You have been so helpful, friendly & professional with every aspect of selling our house. You did a wonderful job and are such a joy to work with. We are both really glad we found you to represent us. Best wishes to you & kindest regards.”
Brad Lesperance
“When I started looking for a home to purchase in the Escondido area, a friend of mine referred me to Cindy. From the first phone call to the purchase of my home, Cindy listened to what I was looking for and helped me find my first home. I told her several times that I wasn’t going to be her biggest client, but that didn’t matter to her. She and her assistant treated me with the same professionalism and courtesy that she treats any client. Every time I had a question regarding a realty issue, Cindy was there to explain the industry to me. She made sure that I had the best possible people helping me with anything I needed. She had an excellent list of long-time respected people to help me with getting a loan to having a highly qualified person to inspect the property that I was purchasing. Cindy always had my interest up front. You can’t go wrong with Cindy Waasdorp.”
Steve & Mona Lucero
“Dear Cindy,
My wife and I would like to let you know and everyone else know of the highest level of service you brought to us in the sale of our home. You are by far the best agent we have ever considered. Your professional demeanor and attitude make all the difference. If any of your future customers have any questions, have them call me (phone number on file). I will gladly speak with them.
Your friends,
Steve and Mona Lucero”
Jason and Diane Windau
“Cindy is truly an amazing realtor, second to none. We have not come across any other who has been more honest about market conditions and what it would take to sell our house. Using her advice to the tee, we sold our home within days of entering the market and at higher than the asking price. Although we miss our Escondido house, this has enabled us to buy the home of our dreams in Northern Virginia. Thank you Cindy for your dedication and patience…You made it look so easy!”
Steve and Sandy Borgardt
“We know if we really want to sell a home, you’re the one to call! This is the second home you’ve sold for us in less than a week. The sale was so fast and we had so much going on at the same time, it was wonderful to know we were in qualified and trusted hands. You are and always will be our Family Real Estate Agent! Thank you so much!”
David Sardi
“I recently completed the sale of my home in Escondido, California, using Cindy Waasdorp as my Realtor. Without qualification, it was an excellent experience working with Cindy. In addition to being a truly nice person, I found Cindy to be hard-working, very thorough and extremely knowledgeable about the area and market trends that we were selling in. I found her marketing plan to be first rate. Cindy had correctly judged the unique nature of the property and the type of buyer that it would appeal to and she emphasized that special quality in her ads. Even in a time of some uncertainty and correction in the market, we received two offers as a result of the first and only open house that we held. Once we were in escrow, Cindy continued to be a driving force. She oversaw all of the details of the transaction and, in many instances, made sure that the buyer’s agent kept to the schedule as well. She kept me well informed of each step of the process and I always felt that she was completely accessible to me for even the smallest of requests or questions. Throughout the entire process, Cindy maintained a positive attitude and never wavered through the day of closing and beyond. On a scale of one to ten, Cindy gets an eleven in my book!”
Bruce and Mimi Plowman
“Cindy Waasdorp has helped us buy and sell three houses, two in Escondido and one in San Marcos over the last seven years. In each case, the sale and purchase were quick and at an excellent price.Her ability to get the deals done is attributable to several things – a tireless work ethic, a wide network of associates and friends that stem from her strong community involvement, excellent people skills and a thorough understanding of the area’s housing market and its many nuances.She is intelligent, responsive and extremely professional. Mimi and I unhesitatingly recommend her to anyone wanting the best service they could hope to get from a Realtor.”

Indy and John Nelson
“When my husband and I decided to put our home on the market, I looked for the BEST Realtor to handle our largest investment. I interviewed several Realtors in the area, but none of them came close to Cindy Waasdorp. Not only does Cindy have over 20 years experience selling real estate in our community, but she has many attributes that I look for when doing business with someone – honesty, integrity, knowledge of all aspects of the real estate market – and, of course, with her love of dogs, I knew she had a caring heart.
Cindy not only sold our home in record time, but also sold it at the asking price. She made the entire event a positive experience. We have continued to recommend Cindy to our friends and we will use her services when we move again!”
Gary L. Coleman
“Dear Cindy,
Please allow me to express my sincere thanks to you from the extended Coleman family for helping us with the sale of my mother’s home in Escondido. Starting with our first interview and then meeting with you to strategize the sale, all the way through the marketing and promotion and finally through escrow, each phase has been done very professionally and skillfully. Thanks for helping us understand what was needed to prepare the house for it’s most effective presentation. That was huge. Thanks for helping us understand what the market is and how we might best position ourselves within it. Thanks for aligning us with other professionals who helped us prepare the home for sale. You have been an excellent communicator all the way through, keeping us connected with the process and giving us straight talk, even if you had to communicate with us from 3000 miles away… which you did more than once. It is easy to see how you have earned the distinction of BHHS’ Chairman’s Gold Circle. We will be pleased to recommend you to any of our friends who need a professional realtor.
Danielle R. Friederichsen
“This year I made one of the biggest steps and most scary steps that any 27 yr old, single female can do. I purchased my first home. I decided to go through Cindy Waasdorp and her amazing team and was not disappointed! They made every step of the way easy and more comfortable. They were always so fast with responses to any questions that I may have had, which were a lot. If they didn’t have the answers, they were always fast to get them for me. I would recommend Cindy Waasdorp to any one and everyone and will use her again in the future! Thanks Cindy!
Cathy Murdock Meagher
“I just wanted to send you this note to thank you for everything you did for us concerning the sale of my mother’s home in Escondido. At our initial contact with you, I’m sure you thought this would be a slam-dunk sale of this charming little house in Candlelight Hills – not realizing you were going to be dealing with an entire family, the emotions tied to our mother’s home and all the other unexpected occurences.You handled everything, from the initial signing of our contract with you, to the final closing of escrow and all of the occasional bumps in the road, with the utmost professionalism, kindness, tact and honor. I can’t say enough about your ability to put us all at ease in the midst of transaction details none of us were familiar with – your ability to calmly sooth everyone’s anxieties and share in the celebration of the closing of escrow to wonderful buyers who will love the home as much as we do.Thank you for holding our hand(s) through this sale and we all feel we have found a broker, real estate agent and friend – unexpected and very much appreciated.
Sincerely,
Cathy Murdock Meagher
Lynn and Dave Tagge
“Cindy, we could NOT have done this without you! Ours was a “difficult” property, a niche complex with all kinds of possibilities, but difficult to know how to market. Everyone else told us that it would take months to find a buyer. You came morning, noon and night to get just the right photos and just the right copy for the beautiful brochure. We were all amazed at the interest you generated – the Open House was unbelievable. Of course, the fact that the person who “toured” the house via the virtual tour on the very first day, then drove over 500 miles to see it – and immediately put in an offer – just added to the reasons we have to be thankful for having you as our real estate agent. Your honesty, your hard work, and your “can-do” attitude, combined with your excellent ideas, made this a positive experience. We are very pleased to highly recommend you to our friends!
With warm regards, Lynn and Dave Tagge”
Jim and Sandie Learned
“Selling a home can be a very trying experience, so we chose Cindy Waasdorp to be our Realtor because of an excellent recommendation we had received from a friend. We were so glad we made this choice. Cindy was professional, positive and so well informed of the whole process. We felt all the way through that we were getting the best counsel and she guided us through the many challenges of getting a fair price and making sure everything was done the right way. We felt she fairly represented us and she really made it a fun and rewarding adventure all the way through. Her assistant Jolaine was a great addition to the team, as well as the office staff. Thank you Cindy”
