About Sherry
Sherry is a lifelong resident of the Bay Area and has lived in Walnut Creek since 1994. She got her real estate license in 2001 and has been a full time Realtor ever since. In 2005, after only four years in the business, she earned the CRS credential from the National Association of Realtors. The CRS (Certified Residential Specialist) is the highest credential awarded to residential sales agents and it's held by fewer than 3% of Realtors in the US. In 2015, she passed the rigorous five-hour California real estate exam to become a Broker Associate. Sherry is passionate about her clients and determined to make sure that their real estate experience is a positive one. Her savvy marketing, strategic pricing, strong negotiation skills, hands-on transaction management and a solid commitment to exceptional client service are the hallmarks of her business … and she has the testimonials to prove it. She is a systems person — organized, detail oriented, super focused — and she makes sure every possible detail is addressed during both the pre-sale and post-contract phases of a transaction. She has an acute understanding of local neighborhoods and of the real estate industry, and she recognizes the importance of developing close working relationships within the brokerage community, where she is known and respected for her honesty, integrity and professionalism. Prior to real estate, Sherry lived in San Francisco and worked in advertising/marketing for 22 years. She spent 9 years at DMB&B, a global ad agency with 52 offices worldwide, as Vice President of Print Production. Later she changed to the vendor side of the business and produce high-end advertising and marketing materials for Fortune 500 companies including Apple Computer, Starbucks, Disney, Pixar, Baskin-Robbins, Bank of America, Symantec and Hewlett Packard. Sherry is a graduate of Cal State East Bay with a degree in Business Administration. In her spare time, she enjoys cooking and entertaining for friends, visiting wineries in Napa and Sonoma, relaxing anywhere on the coast along Highway 1, and spending time with her step-dog Zeke.

Outstanding service from start to finish

Kaaren was exceptional throughout the entire process. This is the second home she's helped us buy and sell, and once again she exceeded our expectations. She is knowledgeable, responsive, strategic, and a pleasure to work with. We recommend Kaaren without hesitation and wouldn't consider working with anyone else.

Excellent agent and a class act

Karen is an exceptional real estate agent and an even better person. She has deep knowledge of the Lamorinda market, years of experience, and a calm, thoughtful approach that made the entire process feel manageable. She offers honest, practical advice without ever being pushy, and she genuinely listens to her clients’ priorities. One of Karen’s greatest strengths is her collaborative style. Rather than trying to dictate every decision, she brings her expertise to the table, explains the pros and cons of each option, and works with you to develop the best strategy. We always felt that she respected our opinions while making sure we had the benefit of her experience. We couldn’t be happier with our experience. Karen guided us through one of the largest financial transactions of our lives with professionalism, patience, and kindness. We are incredibly grateful for her advice, support, and friendship, and we recommend her without hesitation.

Amazing experience working with Ellyn to buy our first home!

Amazing experience working with Ellyn to buy our first home!

Working with Ellyn was the best experience from start to finish! She toured us through different Lamorinda neighborhoods and guided us every step of the way as we searched for the right home. She made the home buying process fun, and we truly wouldn’t have found our home without her. As first time buyers, we had no idea where to start, but Ellyn made the entire process approachable and stress-free. She was incredibly knowledgeable, always available to answer our questions, and helped us understand every step along the way. When it came time to make an offer, she provided thoughtful guidance and helped us put together a winning offer that we felt completely comfortable with. We are so grateful for Ellyn! Both for her expertise and for her friendship throughout this journey. We can’t recommend her highly enough to anyone looking to buy a home in the Lamorinda area!

She listened!

She listened!

We were at an open house when we met Kim. By her questions and comments, it was transparent that she was attentive and taking mental notes of what our impressions were of the property. She proposed other properties that may be of interest to us. Although we made a couple of offers that fell through, she showed her patience, resourcefulness and professionalism against the challenges that we encountered with the homeowners. She stirred us to consider a Martinez and a property there (our impressions of Martinez are the refineries that we see on Hwy 680). We are so glad that she did! The property was as great buy near Briones Regional Park (added bonus: the people at the Matrinez Building Dept are helpful and pleasure to work with). We now have a tenant that loves the property as much as we do. We cannot thank Kim enough! Will certainly call Kim for future real estate transanctions.

A most reliable and proactive realtor - highly recommend

A most reliable and proactive realtor - highly recommend

I have not purchased a new home in decades and was not familiar with current home/condo procedures. It was very helpful to have my realtor Jill Balazs by my side since she knows the in's and out's of the entire process. She was very proactive, looking out for my best interests and providing recommendations and resources in a respectful way so I could then make my own best decisions. She communicates well, was very reliable/responsive, and showed up during all the important moments. Jill also had helpful contacts related to the title company, insurance, and contractors. Working with her gave me peace of mind and I would recommend her services and expertise to anyone looking to purchase a new home in Contra Costa.

We had a great experience working with Jess and Lisa to buy our home

We had a great experience working with Jess and Lisa to buy our home. They were incredibly responsive throughout the entire process and always made us feel like a priority, even when we had lots of questions or needed quick guidance. What really stood out was how well they know the area. Their local expertise helped us evaluate neighborhoods, understand pricing, and feel confident in our decisions. They were also very proactive, staying on top of every detail and helping us navigate challenges. Buying a home can be overwhelming, but they made the process feel much more manageable. We're so grateful for their support and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking to buy a home in the Lamorinda area.
