We had a really great experience working with Art Lewis while buying our new construction home at Aero @ 3Roots. From the beginning, Art was incredibly responsive, always on top of things, and quick to respond anytime we had questions or needed advice throughout the process. Buying a home — especially new construction — can get overwhelming fast, but he helped make everything feel manageable. On top of that, he’s just a genuinely nice guy and really easy to work with.What we appreciated most was that Art genuinely looked out for our best interests. He never pressured us and gave honest guidance when it came to deciding what to buy and where to buy. It always felt like he wanted us to make the right long-term decision, not just close a deal.He also went above and beyond during negotiations. Not only did he negotiate an unbelievable amount of seller concessions for us — actually the largest amount the builder had agreed to at the time — but he was also able to get two contingencies accepted, including a contingency for the sale of our condo. From what we understand, that’s extremely difficult to pull off with new construction builders, and it made a huge difference for us.We’re really grateful we had Art in our corner and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking to buy a home.

Art and his teammates at Neumann are experts in downtown San Diego condos and buildings. Their office was able to facilitate an unlisted transaction for me with one of their buyers, making it the easiest real estate transaction I’ve ever been through. Professionally and personally, Art is persistent, friendly, patient, very responsive (a huge plus), not arrogant, and knowledgeable. Most importantly, he was able to get me what I wanted in a crowded downtown market, and in an uncertain economic environment. (That all said, it helps if you have a really good product for sale, so manage your expectations.)

We’ve worked with Art Lewis 10 times now, and there’s a reason we keep coming back to him. At this point, he’s the first person I call whenever I’m buying or selling because I know he’ll tell me the truth, stay on top of everything, and help me make the right decision.On this last deal, Art helped me buy a rental home in Bonita. As usual, he was great throughout the whole process. He understands investment property way beyond just writing the offer. He helped me think through the numbers, the upside, and the overall structure of the deal so I felt good about what I was buying.One thing that really helped on this purchase was that Art was able to work out seller financing for part of the purchase price. That made the deal a lot better for me and probably saved me at least $10,000 in cash compared to going with a more typical lender setup and all the extra closing costs that come with it.What I’ve always liked about Art is that he’s straightforward and easy to reach. If I had a question, he answered it. If something needed attention, he handled it. He doesn’t overcomplicate things, and he doesn’t disappear once you’re in escrow.After 10 transactions, I can say he’s earned my trust. I’d absolutely recommend him to anyone buying or selling property.Here’s an even more casual version too:We just completed our 10th transaction with Art Lewis, which says a lot by itself. We keep working with him because he’s honest, sharp, and always looking out for our best interests.This time he helped me buy a rental property in Bonita, and once again he was great to work with. He helped me look at the deal like an investment, not just a purchase, and gave me good advice the whole way through.The biggest bonus on this one was that Art helped put together seller financing for part of the purchase price, which made the deal even better. That alone probably saved me at least $10,000 in cash versus using a normal lender and paying the usual loan costs.Art is always available, always straightforward, and always on top of the details. After 10 deals together, I trust him completely and would recommend him without hesitation

Working with Art was truly a great experience from start to finish. He was incredibly responsive — always quick to reply and on top of every detail in this fast-moving market. His advice was honest, well-informed, and completely unbiased, which made us feel confident every step of the way.What stood out the most was his willingness to go the extra mile. Whether it was scheduling last-minute viewings, chasing down documents, or answering our endless questions with patience, he never made us feel rushed or overlooked. His calm, professional approach made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable.We ended up getting a great deal on a home being sold as is, but thanks to Art’s thoroughness, he made sure a termite inspection was included — which turned out to be a major catch, as the house did require treatment. That kind of attention to detail really shows how much he cares about his clients and their long-term investment.If you’re looking for an agent who is knowledgeable, reliable, and truly puts your best interest first — we highly recommend Art Lewis.

Art did an outstanding job selling our condo at Villas at Escala. Because this was a second home and we live in Northern California, we were only able to spend a short week at the condo deciding what to keep. Art handled everything else seamlessly.He arranged for remaining items to be donated or sold, coordinated repairs and deep cleaning, selected paint colors, and oversaw painting, re-carpeting, window replacement, a new closet door, and other needed updates. All we had to do was review and approve the quotes. He then staged the condo and hosted an open house.We received two offers that weekend, and the buyers bid the price above our listing. The entire process was handled smoothly by phone and email. In less than three weeks—over Thanksgiving—we went from a condo full of belongings to being on the market. The condo sold in a single weekend and closed within 30 days.

We had a wonderful experience working with Art Lewis during the sale of our rental property. From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping us find the right buyer. What stood out most was Art’s reliability, dedication, good judgment and keen understanding of a property’s worth in the marketplace. Art was able to sell our property without having us make any repairs, upgrades, or provide buyer credits, and we received multiple competitive bids. Art made himself available whenever we needed him, and provided excellent guidance and support to ensure we never missed an opportunity. Art’s insights and recommendations were incredibly helpful throughout the process. He listened to our goals and guided us with a perfect balance of expertise and personal care. Thanks to Art and the outstanding support from his team, we sold our property quickly and at a fair price. We’re so grateful for his experience and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to sell or buy their next home.

Most importantly he listened to us and understood what we were looking for, this ensured no time was wasted looking at property which didn’t meet our expectations. Art also gave us some excellent tips and tricks for the gaslamp and Marina District areas. He worked quickly with our lender and maintained the perfect amount of communication. A honest professional in every sense.
