I am truly grateful to her. I definitely recommend her for your home buying needs."

- Brian Briseno, Bought a Single-Family home, Anaheim, CA.

We would definitely recommend her for your home buying and selling process. She is the best!!"

"Joy helped us find our beautiful home and now she is helping us sell it. Joy has gone above and beyond to meet our needs. No detail was left unturned. Joy was the first person we called when we decided to sell! Each step of the way she had it handled, from open houses to appoints to show, without stressing out our life as we were in the process of moving ourselves. There were so many offers our head was spinning. Well above our asking price!! Joy helped us decide which worked best for our unique situation and we were closed in record time. She is attentive in our requests and really took time to get to know our moving situation. .. We will use her again when we move back to CA and would highly recommend her for all your real estate needs."

- M. Gutierrez, Bought a Condo home in Laguna Niguel, CA.

"Joy is amazing! We began searching for houses in 2019, and after 3 years of starting and stopping our search through the pandemic, they helped us find our dream home. During those years, Joy became like family to us. She has so much knowledge and experience, and the resources to answer any questions we had throughout the process. Even when we took some time off from searching for a home she never pressured or pushed us. When we were ready, she helped us through each step, and we are so blessed to have had her at our side for every step of this home buying process. She made the process easy to understand and walked that fine line of negotiating with the seller and relaying all information to us. We give this classy lady 5 stars and will refer anyone and everyone we know to them! She is the best!"

Joy recently helped me navigate the stressful experience of buying my first home. Through the whole process, her insights, advice, and recommendations were extremely helpful and reassuring. Moreover, she is on top of every little detail with regard to the mortgage company, escrow company, inspection process, etc. and made the process of closing on the property a breeze. I am now living in my dream home, thanks to this great gal. She will be outstanding guide for you as you venture out in search of your own..."

- Peter Kinyoun, Bought a home in Mission Viejo, CA.

"Joy made our home search an efficient and fun experience. She has extensive knowledge of both Orange County and the VA home loan process. My wife and I were impressed with her ability to find creative solutions to a couple of setbacks we experienced in escrow. She even surprised me with an olive tree for the new garden, after I mentioned to them how much I love olives! Joy is great and we will definitely be calling them again if we are in search of a new home."

"I cannot speak more highly about Joy. She is the "Cat's Meow." My wife and I had a wonderful experience with this professional. We were assigned to them by a Veteran's lending company, which I will get to in a second. I can honestly say that if my wife and I were not connected with this gem, we would not be in the house we are today. The steadfastness of Joy led to a home that my wife and I are convinced we are supposed to be living in. If you are a Veteran and are going to be utilizing a VA Loan, stop looking any further and contact this exceptional agent. She speaks the Veteran and military service lingo. She knows how you operate and most importantly she knows the VA loan program. “She loves her some Veterans!!” So, if you are assigned to her from a Veteran financial institution and just checking out the reviews, you should feel confident you have been linked to the agents that will help you seal the deal!!! After a bizarre twist of fate and the failure of our initial lender, Joy reached into her bag of tricks, which there are many, and lined us up with local financing with a company that they do business with frequently. It turned out to be a match made in the heavens for us. Joy is always there for us when we needed her. There is not a stupid question when it comes to this lady. Joy has probably heard every question in the book. If you text them at 11 pm with one of your questions that woke you from a deep sleep, by 6 am or maybe 7 on a Sunday, you will have an answer...take that to the bank. There is no rest with this gal!! She is the proverbial Energizer Bunny!! Having a unique background in prior professions that makes her uniquely qualified to hand a full range of advice and retrospect. And finally, when you make the smart decision of having her represent you, you get a package deal. You must experience it to understand what I'm talking about. Whether it is a phone call, or a showing, Joy is there, literally, it is phenomenal. When they showed up at our newly purchased home to give us the key, it was a bittersweet goodbye to this fine lady, but you know what the professional relationship didn't end. I still had questions and they still had answers, their service to their customers does not end when you get the keys. Now, finally, for the second time, Joy knows South Orange County. She knows the nooks and crannies of the neighborhoods and they have connections from everything from bankers to plumbers, to general contractors, to hairdressers (I didn't ask about cuts, but I probably could and would have a stellar referral). So, stop reading reviews on Zillow and go with Joy of the Valentine Group…. Enough said!!! Welcome to your new home!!"

- ChristopherWalker, Bought a home in Laguna hills, CA.

"Joy is superwoman! We were purchasing our home living out of state. This amazing lady went above and beyond to meet our needs. No detail was left unturned.

We would use her again and would highly recommend her for all your real estate needs!"

- Jamy Adams, Bought a Single-Family home in Rancho Santa Margarita, CA.

"We looked at over 100 homes with Joy and she was so kind and patient with us throughout the whole home buying process.

We would recommend her for all your real estate needs!"

- Doug & Lori Gilmore, Bought a Single-Family home Anaheim, CA.

"Just a little shout out to Joycelyn for helping my family get into our very first home. As a first-time home buyer, I don't know what to expect. I was terrified, and doubted myself most of the time that I can do it. I don't understand the language of Real Estate and mixed emotions often comes to mind. With your help my home buying journey has been incredibly easy. You are exceptional. From start to finish you guiding me through the home buying process less painful and I never expected that I will have an AMAZING experience working with such an AWESOME beautiful lady.

Time was getting shorter with each passing day and my wife contacted JOYCELYN VALENTINE in an attempt to buy VA.I told her it would never happen because it was just weeks to go before, we had to move.

"Just a little shout out to Joycelyn and Sue "Valentine Werner Group" for helping my family get into our very first home. As a first time home buyer, I didn't know what to expect. I was terrified and doubted myself most of the time that I could do it. I don't understand the language of Real Estate and mixed emotions often come to mind. With your help, my home buying journey has been incredibly easy. You both are exceptional. From start to finish the two of you guided me through the home buying process made it less painful and I never expected that I would have such an AMAZING experience working with two AWESOME ladies.

- Mila, Bought a Condo home in 2019 in Aliso Viejo, CA.

"At the time, I was living in Texas. I had 30 days to move my family to California due to a short notice military transfer. I had never been to California and wasn't even there to learn the area. I was also a 1st time home buyer and very intimidated by the process. These two women guided me through every step of the process with patience and ease. They took 1000s of pictures of every property i was interested in, and video chatted with my husband and I while at the properties. Though we were crunched for time, they took the time to explain everything to me and give me a better understanding of each step of the process. They jumped through every hoop imaginable for my family and did an amazing job! Both Joy and Sue made me feel like I was part of their family and they had my family's best interest at heart. Joy and Sue took my many problems; such as, my 30 day time frame, VA loan stipulations, having a large family of 7, and were able to get us in an amazing home! These two realtors are phenominal! I would definitely recommend them and find it a privilege to work with them again!"
