Andy helped me find my perfect home. He was a true professional, and also a good friend in the process. He had an amazing way of combining the ability to know the area and local market, with my needs, wants, and dreams. He was able to help me wade through the many listings to find those that would match what I was looking for, and would be a smart financial decision and investment, which as a single professional, meant so much. I feel truly lucky that he was by my side - at each step,though I knew there were some aspects he didn’t have overall control of in the lending process, he kept close contact to help influence and direct the process in any way he could. I appreciated the connections he had, as well as his ability to positively influence and work with the local San Diego market vendors in a way that helped me accomplish my goals. Today, I live in my perfect downtown San Diego condo, and Andy was a huge part of that process. Thank you, Andy - for being such a positive influence in a big life decision for me and my family.

Landon Jackson Client Testimonial - Kjell Adams

Andy Boes — Wed, 21 Jul 2010 17:40:48 +0000

Andy Boes from Landon Jackson Realty worked with me for 3 years to find a house through several zip codes and finally we were able to find the perfect house. He was great to work with, always on time to appointments, easy going, and courteous. I had very strict requirements and probably why it took so long to find a property but none the less I’d highly recommend using Andy again for any real estate transactions. My girlfriend recently used him as well to find a home downtown San Diego. To no surprise, she too found the perfect place in about three weeks. Thanks Again Andy!

I moved to San Diego in the summer of 2008 and rented a condo downtown while deciding what and where I wanted to purchase. As I looked around and went to open houses, I met a number of realtors and began to dread the experience. Often, they pushed for a phone number and information and insisted until I wanted to run for the door. I began to refuse to give my name or to invent one in order to avoid further contact. That was before I met Andy Boes and Loretta Cass of Landon Jackson Realty–what a refreshing difference! I went to an Open house one Sunday prepared to give a false name when I met Andy Boes. He was so friendly and open showing me around the place even though I had informed him that it was way out of my financial reach–I just wanted to see it! We began to talk about my situation and began a relationship that made house hunting a really fun experience. I met Loretta Cass that same day and liked her immediately. Loretta and Andy became my partners and allies and showed me around just about every building in the downtown (where I had decided that I hoped to buy) over the next eight months and appeared to enjoy the experience of looking with me. They never pushed me to make a decision or to look at anything outside of my expressed desires. There was never any pressure to increase the amount that I felt comfortable spending and in fact, they helped me to find financing that kept me within a safe reality for my budget. When I did find my ‘dream condo’ meeting all of my criteria, they even helped me find a renter to finish out the lease on the rental that I was leaving. The experience was fun and enlightening. Andy and Loretta have become friends and will remain as such in my life. I enthusiastically recommend Landon Jackson Realty–Andy and Loretta, to anyone who is looking for a place to live in San Diego. They will truly personalize the process to meet your individual desires and needs. They are simply the BEST!

Little Italy Restaurant Buon Appetito - The Best Italian Food In Little Italy

Andy Boes — Wed, 04 Mar 2009 02:01:14 +0000

I have lived in Little Italy, San Diego for quite some time now. I am always approached by visitors asking me where the best Italian food restaurant is located. I always have the same answer for them. The answer is Buon Appetito Ristorante Italiano. The food is excellent and very similar in style and taste to the outstanding food in Italy at the more upscale establishments. The Atmosphere at Buon Appetito is excellent. The wine choices are fantastic and the menu is very extensive ranging from seafood pasta to fillet mignon. The bottom line is I would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great food. It might be a little crowded at times, a little noisy inside, but an outside table facing India St. might take you all the way to Italy for a few hours.

Buon Appetito a Tutti!

Landon Jackson Real Estate Group Client Testimonial - Maureen Sullivan

Andy Boes — Mon, 04 Aug 2008 02:20:14 +0000

Hiring Andrew Boes from Landon Jackson Real Estate was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Knowing that I had limited free time and that I am very particular, Andy listened carefully to my preferences and also observed my life style to determine my real estate needs. In every case, he presented pre-screened homes that matched what I was looking for. He was patient, knowledgeable and smart and did not hesitate to point out deficiencies that I may not have noticed. Not only did he make the process simple, he made it fun.

The bottom line is that Andy made my search for a new home incredibly easy, he handled my transaction with knowledge and confidence.

I have been settling into my new home for about a month. For the firstfr time in my life, I can honestly say that I could live in this home forever.

Opt for a staycation in Little Italy San Diego instead of crossing the pond.

Andy Boes — Mon, 28 Jul 2008 20:12:02 +0000

My husband and I recently returned from the arch and heal of the boot of Italy. We had been to the north years ago and soaked in the beauty, culture and of course became two of the thousands of tourists snapping shots of David, canals, leaning tower, etc,etc,etc.
We decided to explore the part of Italy not in the tourist’s guide books. We stayed at a beach resort or lido as they call an area by the beach named Metaponto. This part of Italy has thousands of acres of picturesque olive groves and vineyards. The major cities are on the Adriatic Sea and the Gulf of Taranto. They are industrial, no one speaks English, no tourist and definitely no Americans renting a car and driving around that region at $10.80 per gallon for diesel fuel!
A high light of our motor exploration was the trip north to Napoli and the crazy drivers in that congested city, currently having a very bad garbage problem. We took the ferry to the isle of Capri and encountered more tourist and higher prices than we had experience all week. So back south with a stop in Pompeii and a drive down the incredible splendor of the Amalfi coast.
The drive south is spattered with hill-top cities glittering in the Italian June sun. The highways were very comfortable for us to navigate, a pleasant surprise for our California psyche.
Also, not on our itinerary was a stop at an Italian hospital when my husband had a slight accident in the resort pool.
We were in and out of the hospital in less than three hours with just a signature from my husband. The hospital was clean and the doctors very competent (with an interpreter). Again, we were there to get to know the people not to be part of the masses on a tour. We certainly achieved that!
We spent the last week in Rome and became one of the tourists and did appreciate the city’s splendor.
We spent an evening attending a concert at Hadrian’s Villa in Tivoli. It was an Italian music festival and truly amazing being at a rare archeological discovery hearing music from such happy people.
The trip was superb…….people, food, sights, experiences, no need to go on!
However, back to the $10.80 per gallon and the cost for us to travel with the rate of exchange from dollars to Euros, I think our next trip will be to the Carlsbad Caverns in New Mexico.
Loretta and Greg Staycationers for now!!
