As the old saying goes, third time's a charm. That was the case for me and my family in hiring the team of Janie and Henry Bruce as our real estate agents. We had been trying to sell our house since the summer of 2018, and throughout that time we went through 2 other real estate agents. And then we found Janie and Henry. Hiring them was the best decision we made because they made the seemingly impossible happen by selling our house within our desired price range. And working with Janie and Henry was truly a pleasure. They're consummate professionals who were always available to answer questions and provide help when needed. They worked extremely hard to sell our house, implementing strategies that proved to be successful. And that was just in terms of selling our house. They was also very helpful in finding us a new house, which we'll be moving into later this year. The bottom line is if you're looking for a real estate agent who will get the job done and is a pleasure to work with, than the team of Janie and Henry Bruce is the one you should hire.
Janie and her husband are such nice people. Very proactive and helpful in our purchase of our home. She always got back to us asap if we had any questions and or needed help with anything. They were patient even when it took us forever to make decisions. Even after closing escrow Janie has still been contacting us. Checking in to see if we needed anything and even let us know of fun events coming up in the area. So glad we used her.
Janie continued to keep me abreast of the market and open houses throughout the year while preparing my mother’s home for sale including assistance with garage sales. All this prior to my selection of a realtor. She lives and specializes in this area and was helpful and professional during the entire selling process with great advice about the market. She and er husband Henry helped my find buyers for furniture that was well beyond my expectations. Upon the conclusion of the sale she presented us with gifts to show her appreciation which was totally unexpected. Her sincerity and responsiveness won our heart.
You can’t do any better than Janie. She is the best!!
Janie Bruce was the ultimate profession in leasing our rental properties in Long Beach. She always responded in a timely manner to our questions and kept us aware of all the applications as they were coming in. She made some very helpful suggestions and with here expertise and knowledge we were able to lease the property above asking price.
Both Janie & Henry were awesome... they spent a few days with me, showing listed homes @ Leisure World. More importantly, they took the time to acquaint me with the area. We drove around and I was able to learn what amenities this great neighborhood offered. It truly was helpful in my final decision to relocate from Yuba City (Northern California) to the Leisure World neighborhood in Seal Beach.

If you want a Real Estate professional who is attentive to your needs... totally recommend Both Janie & Henry Bruce.
Janie has been extremely helpful throughout the buying process. I called Janie when I found my perfect home and her advice, knowledge, and professionalism are what drove the seller's decision to accept our offer in a close bidding war. Janie went above and beyond to meet with the selling agent IN PERSON to present our offer, which the sellers greatly appreciated. It is small things like this that make a huge difference. Thank you so much Janie, I could not be more delighted with my new home.
My daughter had been searching for a "first house" for several weeks in the Lakewood area. She found a great house, but needed a winning strategy to present an offer. With Henry and Janie's expertise and advice, they personally presented our offer the next day to the seller's agent. Their strategy worked! Our offer was accepted! A big part of the winning offer was financing arranged through Henry and Janie's connections to get us a pre-approval letter. As the 21 day escrow progressed, we needed other services like a home inspection and the Bruces helped us with those too! Henry and Janie are a great team to help you find, buy or sell a house.
We have stuck with with Janie and Henry through all of our house rentals , buys and sells. They are super helpful , kind and very knowledgeable. We will always continue to work them and would recommend to all our friends and family.
Henry and Janie helped me with the purchase of a new unit in Leisure World, an active over 55 community just 1.5 miles from the beach in Seal Beach, CA but with some unique characteristics. From the start, Henry and Janie were extremely helpful in showing me units, arranging all the visits and helping me navigate my way around, and making several trips to visit units again before making an offer. They helped with advice on making the best offer and through the negotiation with advice on making counter-offers and handling everything professionally and with respect.

Helping with escrow, special aspects of purchasing in Leisure World, being with me at inspections and even making extra keys they walked with me through every step.
Understands real estate and marketing. Knows how to read the market and prices the real estate accordingly in order to draw in qualified buyers. Seems to have an extensive network which helps tremendously when selling. I have used Janie and Henry on multiple occasions. As a professional trustee, I have a legal responsibility to maximize sales price. Because of their knowledge, experience and client centered approach, they are my go to real estate professionals in Orange County.
Janie did an amazing job helping my wife and I find and purchase our first home. In a negotiation that had multiple counter offers, Janie helped us key in on the issues of importance and finalize a complex deal. We were so impressed with our real estate experience, we had Janie list and sell our other property. I would recommend Janie Bruce highly for anyone looking in the Rossmoor and Seal Beach area.
