We Love Our Clients

""Jeff was a fantastic support for us in our search for a property.  Felt a lot more like dealing with a close colleague or friend than your average broker.  He was responsive, available all day and night and genuinely seemed to care about making things easier!""

Andrew and Lucinda B.

"Negar is absolutely amazing, just look at the previous reviews. I was a first time seller, and long before I knew I was going to sell I got in touch with her and she very patiently explained how she does her research, marketing, etc. Fast forward months later when I had decided to go ahead and sell and she was right there with all the info from our first call. At every step of the way she was on top of everything. I really felt like she was watching out for me, and alert to all the little mistakes first time sellers can make during the process. Needless to say everything went off without a hitch. I can't recommend her enough. She'd get 6 stars if there was an option!"

"Maxi was our buyer agent on Gypsy Lane. Because of her relationship w the sellers agent we negotiated a quick sale. She is smart attentive and deeply knowledgeable about the current crazy market. We were very pleased."

Kathleen M. Eyre

Shannon is fantastic! She was so patient as we figured out what we wanted and our price range was. When we got serious about a listing, she was right there with us. She has developed relationships with other realtors and that made a big difference for us "winning" the house in a competitive market. Her advice was always spot-on and she never made us feel pressured. She is such a pro and took all the pain out of the process. We're so grateful for her guidance throughout the home buying process -- from casually looking, through closing, and even reminding us to change the locks upon move-in. She's the best.

Erin F., Buyer

"We recently worked with Julie on the purchase of our home in Albany. She was always helpful, never pressured us in any direction, and has a ton of knowledge about what to consider when buying a home.Most importantly, she was able to effectively negotiate when we were up against 12 competing offers, one of which was significantly higher than ours. She has continued to help us work out issues after escrow closed which I wouldn't have expected and we've really appreciated. Overall, she's a trustworthy, experienced agent and we really enjoyed working with her."

"I saw a page review about Madam Kathy Perry and I must confess that she is a good trader and the best in her field as they said, she managed my account after I invested $700 I got $6,200 within a few days of investment I was so shocked, with Ma'am Kathy Perry, your money is 100% secured,. Trust me you have nothing to lose You can contact her via Email: kathyperry2470@gmail.com WhatsApp: +44 7360237123"

"SEE UPDATE 5/2015 BELOW!!!!!!!Barbara Hendrickson made buying a first home fun and easy. In Berkeley, no less, which is a very big deal. When we found Barbara, she immediately directed us to a great mortgage broker for qualification who qualified us quickly and with minimal fuss or attitude (unlike another super-popular brokerage we had first tried to use but that was too busy to return calls or answer questions). She helped educate us about all the factors involved in the purchase of a home. She knows a metric ton about the market, the competitive buyers' landscape in our area, architectural styles, inspections, and the delicate art of presenting the offer and negotiating the price. She is patient and wise, and understands that buying a home is a process, not a series of events. She really worked hard on our behalf.We got the FIRST house we bid on (in Berkeley, no less!). Even though there were five other offers AND ours was close-but-not-quite-the-highest, she managed to woo the listing agent (and therefore the sellers) just enough that we were able to make up the difference and win the house. She really knows what she is doing and she's THAT good. After our offer was accepted, she followed through by helping us get all the inspections done quickly and with the loveliest gang of inspectors a person could hope for. Not only does she know a ton about real estate and our area, she knows seemingly everyone who lives here. She referred us to a terrific gent for the general inspection, a great and affordable structural engineer (!), and myriad other inspection professionals who helped us get a completely clear picture of our home's condition before we agreed on the final price and sealed the deal. Her list of contacts is a mile long and a two miles deep, and it's full of hundreds of super-qualified people you will actually LIKE working with.As you can imagine, I as a buyer had some freak-out moments. I wasn't sure about buying on a busier street. I wasn't sure our sellers would adjust the price. I wondered at night whether the foundation really was ok (all of the folks we paid to see it said 'yes, it's dang good'). Barbara answered every frantic text, email, and phone call promptly and with the requisite information and reassurance that just steered us through the process with facts AND finesse.I loved working with Barbara and would leap at the opportunity to work with her in the future."

"Ninva is very patient and knowledgeable. She takes time to understand our needs and tries to find the best fit for us! We truly appreciate and are very grateful to have her to be our agent."

"David Gluck is thoughtful, considerate and insightful! For the second transaction in a two he has helped us identify our goals and get excellent execution, with a quick turnaround."

" Dear Patty,
I've written this recommendation of your work to share with other's.

I referred Patty for a client I have that needs to sell in her area. Not only does Patty keep me informed as to the progress, she is highly knowledgeable and professional. I am very pleased with the work she is doing and she will be my preferred realtor for any referrals I have in her area. This is a big compliment coming from another realtor because we have very high standards amongst our peers and Patty certainly lives up to all my expectations!"
