Greg
I was born to Georgia parents in a small town on the Gulf coast
of Texas. The town was named Texas City and I was raised there
until the age of 18, when I went out into the world to seek
my fortune.
One of my first loves is traveling, and I spent
about two and a half years doing so before finally landing in
San Diego in November 1977.
After spending several years in college and working, I decided
that real estate investing was something that looked not only
interesting, but also lucrative. It indeed turned out that way
and before too long many of my friends and acquaintances were
asking me to help guide them in the purchase of a home or investment
property.
With all of this in mind, I took the necessary
courses to obtain my Real Estate license. Since receiving my
license in 1986, I have been able to help many friends obtain
the home that they always wanted and also to start building
equity through what is still the best investment going. Through
knowing of us and our accomplishments you will have a better
feel for who we are.
Marisa
I was born in Huacho, Peru in 1962. I lived there for nine years
until my family moved to Lima. I lived in Lima for the next
eighteen years and during this time I attended several different
preparatory schools. I then spent three years in the College
of Journalism at San Martin de Porres University.
I then changed my major to Law and spent the next six years
studying at the College of Law at San Martin de Porres University.
In December 1987, Greg and I met at my cousin's home in Peru,
where Greg was visiting. We corresponded by mail and telephone
for a year and then Greg returned to Peru for Christmas. Shortly
thereafter we decided to be married, and made plans for a May
wedding.
Greg then returned to the United States while
I continued with my studies and practicing until I completed
the necessary work to receive my attorney's license in March
1989. Greg returned to Peru in May, where we were married on
May 20th. After a short honeymoon we returned to the United
States and I began to work with Greg in the Real Estate business
he had established years earlier.
Since then, we have continued to develop the existing business
and expanded into some very interesting fields.
One of the things we have done is develop our
business in the Spanish speaking
market. Because we both speak fluent Spanish, this has opened
up an entirely new market segment not available to the average
Real Estate agent. Working both of these markets has resulted
in explosive growth of our business.
We hope to have the opportunity to put all of
this experience and growth to work for you. return to top
Fabby
I was born in Tijuana Mexico and moved to San Diego when I was
12 yrs. Old. I have been Greg & Marisa Joyner’s Transaction
Coordination for the past 11 years and their loan processor
for the last 4 years. My job is to follow up with all parties
involved in the transaction, make sure everyone has the required
information and documents needed in a timely manner throughout
the escrow. We know that Buying or Selling a home is stressful
enough without mistakes being made. Therefore, our goal is to
make the process as stress free as possible for our clients.
Fortunatly, after having done this job for 11 years and processing
over 800 transactions we have gotten it down to a fine art.
If you have any questions on your escrow or your loan you can
call me direct at 858-274-9981 and I’ll be happy to help
you.
John
Before I was a Realtor, I spent 6 years as a Naval Officer right
here in sunny San Diego. I graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy
in Annapolis, Maryland in 1998 and moved to San Diego later
that year. I was originally assigned to the USS Rushmore (LSD-47)
and spent much of my time transporting Marines to foreign lands.
In August of 2000, I transferred to Beachmaster Unit One in
Coronado and spent two years as an Officer-in-Charge of a Beach
Party Team. At BMU, I worked to bring Marines ashore so that
they could continue to protect freedom around the world. For
the last two years of my active duty career I enjoyed being
the Legal Officer at the Fleet Anti-submarine Warfare Training
Center in Point Loma -- where the Navy trains young men and
women to become Sonar Technicians on surface ships. Again, that
was another great assignment where I made many friends and learned
a lot about leadership. I currently work as a Navy Reservist
and spend time each month training with Commander Amphibious
Group Three.
I am originally from Crandall, TX -- a small town near Dallas.
I was born in Dallas and moved out to Crandall (population 1,001)
before I began school. I still keep in touch with many of my
high school friends. I enjoy a variety of activities and hobbies.
I'm in a band and we play shows about twice a month and have
a lot of fun doing it! I also love to wakeboard and snowboard.
When I can't get to the lake or ski slopes, you might find me
watching football or trying to make it through a full 18 holes
of golf with a respectable score!
As a homeowner and investment property owner, I have been interested
in real estate for many years. I started reading books on real
estate investing when I moved to San Diego and in Jan 2004,
I decided to make a career of helping others achieve their dreams.
I really enjoy working to find great deals for others and hope
to help you find the perfect home or investment property! Most
of all, I simply enjoy making new friends every day!
Marcela
In the spring of 2004 I was recruited by Marisa and Greg to
join their team as a bilingual (Spanish-English) Buyer’s
Agent and Client Coordinator. My core responsibilies include
maintaining contact with the Joyner client base on a regular
basis and coaching prospective clients through the process of
overcoming the fears many have when purchasing a home for the
first time or moving up into a larger property. I have worked
with a variety of English and Spanish-speaking clients who have
felt paralyzed by their fears and, once we work through the
initial steps of checking credit and going over finances, we
often discover the possibilities are more than they even dreamed.
I came to the Joyner’s with a extensive background in
finance including processing, document drawing, auditing, and
working closely to support large lender firms including Wells
Fargo, North County Bank, Advanta Mortgage and many others.
My experience lends a unique talent to the team by allowing
me to draw from many resources and research the best possible
program tailored to each buyer.
Like many in the changing face of San Diego culture, I was born
to immigrant parents and raised in San Diego nearly all of my
life. My Father and Grandfather have built and own many properties
all over southern California and south of the border. Real Estate
has always been in my life and of particular interest to me
and I have managed many of my grandfather’s properties.
I like to spend my free time enjoying my family and going out
dancing with my friends. When I have some time on my own I really
enjoy a good book and cooking. I recently moved to the beach
area which offers a great variety of outdoor activities.
Nelson
Before launching a career in real estate, Nelson was a successful sales professional in the telecommunications business for Fortune 100 companies like Pacific Bell (AT&T) and Cox Communications where he received a number of awards and certificates which distinguished him professionally for years. He attended Southwestern College and DeVry University where he studied Business Administration with an emphasis in Marketing and E-Commerce. In addition, Nelson founded a Marketing & Multimedia company during his young college years where he offered Graphic, Multimedia, and Web Design services as well as creating and proposing marketing plans to local businesses.
At the age of 25 Nelson bought his first home where he and his newlywed wife live. During that real estate transaction he was exposed to the real estate industry and developed a strong interest in it. Four months later, the brokerage firm where he bought his first home from offered him a job as a Real Estate Marketing Manager, which he accepted. He then gained foundational experience in real estate marketing, sales, and transaction management. Seven months after accepting the job offer, Nelson received his CA Real Estate Salesperson's license and only three months later he became a member of NAR, CAR, PSAR, and NAHREP.
Two years later, Nelson joined the exceptional Joyner Real Estate Team as a Marketing Manager.
Nelson enjoys Latin Ballroom dancing, playing the piano, and digital photography art design. He is happily married and a proud resident of the City of Chula Vista.
