We highly recommend Audrey. She helped us buy our dream home! She was friendly, incredibly responsive, and knowledgeable. She helped us through every step of the process, including by providing excellent referrals both before and after our purchase.

Nicole really helped us find our perfect home! She was so accommodating with our schedules to view houses and always made the process feel easy.

Working with Bahareh to purchase our first home was an absolute dream. As first-time home buyers navigating a competitive market, we had a lot of questions and uncertainties, but she guided us through every step with care. What truly set Bahareh apart was her responsiveness and willingness to go above and beyond. Not only was she an excellent negotiator, but she also took the initiative to help us coordinate additional services like a home cleaner and other move-in essentials. We felt completely supported throughout the entire journey, and we couldn't be happier with the outcome. We wholeheartedly recommend Bahareh to anyone looking to buy or sell a home - especially first-timers. You’ll be in the best hands possible!

I first met Julie as a neighbor, and over time came to see that she is someone with great integrity, passion, knowledge, smarts, and oodles and oodles of energy. When I decided to sell my condo by the lake, there was no doubt that I would turn to Julie to be my broker. I have sold and purchased homes in the past, and can say without reservation that Julie truly went above & beyond. She was my guide, navigator, resource & referral coordinator, hand holder, panic de-escalator, and all-around expert. I appreciated her honesty and humility above all. I have not hesitated to share her name with others!

Lisa recently helped us purchase our new home in Piedmont, and we honestly couldn’t imagine going through the process without her. From the very beginning, she took the time to really understand what we were looking for and guided us through every step with such care, knowledge, and professionalism. Buying in such a competitive market felt daunting, but Lisa knew exactly how to strategize and position us to succeed. She was proactive, incredibly responsive, and always one step ahead. Thanks to Lisa, we were able to find and win a home that we absolutely love. We’re so grateful for her dedication, expertise, and support — she truly made all the difference!

After living in our house for almost 50 years, when my husband passed, I knew it was time to downsize and move. The trauma of such a decision included “where to begin?”. “who can help me?” “how much will all this cost?” “do I look for a new place first, sell first, etc.” Fortunately, my Financial Advisor said “I know a very capable Real Estate Agent, Audrey Young.” From the minute I met Audrey until she called to congratulate me that the house had sold, I felt that I was in good hands. She is a true professional, and yet an empathetic, caring person who understood the times when I needed strong guidance, and times when I needed to make my own decisions. Each week I got a spread sheet of what needed to happen that week, followed up with a phone call to answer any questions I might have. To get the house on the market in the most favorable buyer’s climate took some real effort on her part, on my part, and cooperation of the crew she put together to do minor repairs, painting, staging, etc. Imagine my surprise and delight that the house was only on the market 5 days, with a ten day closing period! Even dealing with the Title Company she arranged, was simple and easy. I would, and have, recommended Audrey to my friends and especially to folks like me who need someone knowledgeable about the market, patient but always responsive when I needed answers, and able to give me the security that “no worries” we’re on the right track!

Patrick was great to work with. This was my first home purchase and I knew next to nothing. The entire process could have been overwhelming, but Patrick walked me through everything I knew. He helped set reasonable expectations and encouraged me without being pushy. He was extremely responsive and went above to help me close. He also has an extensive network that came in handy throughout the process, including helping find a great loan. Would highly recommend working with him!

Patrick was a tremendous help as we navigated the market for several years providing insights and guidance along the way. He's direct, honest, and easy to work with. When it was finally time to pounce, he was the exact representative we needed to buy our home and get it done. Patrick is a gem!

Patrick was hands-on without being pushy in helping me get the house ready to go on the market. He guided me with decision-making, and had the best resources for cleaning, clearing, landscaping support, staging & whatever else was needed. You name it, he got it. Offers poured in during the Open House weekend, and we were in contract within a couple of days! Patrick is savvy, personable and professional; certainly the best in every respect.

Nicole was an amazing realtor! We had an incredible experience with her guiding us throughout the home purchasing process from start to finish. She was knowledgeable, responsive, and always went the extra mile to ensure our questions were answered and concerns addressed. I would HIGHLY recommend anyone looking to buy a home in the East Bay to hire Nicole.

Lisa is absolutely incredible. We used her to buy our new house and to sell our old home. The purchase of our new home went as smoothly and as quickly as possible. Lisa worked well with the sellers' agents to answer our questions, provided us with data and comps so that we understood the market, and found us a beautiful house to call home. With respect to the sale of our old home, no one could have worked harder. Lisa organized inspections, repairs, cleaning, staging, and photography, quickly and with little to no involvement from us. She even helped us close out an open permit and met the city inspector for us when we were tied up at work. She treated our home with such love and care. She was invested and protective of it. She also took care of us. Selling a home is incredibly stressful and Lisa answered our questions, listened to our concerns, and was super responsive and thoughtful. Finally, with respect to marketing, Lisa stands heads and shoulders above the rest. She knows traditional marketing, but she excels at making videos and getting views on social media. She's not only an authoritative voice on the real estate market, but her videos are fun and engaging too. Ultimately, Lisa made our house shine, she secured many competitive offers, and she got us a fantastic price significantly over asking. Lisa is effective because she is driven, savvy, organized, hustles, listens, and pays attention to details. But she also loves what she does. She'll be excited to have the opportunity to work with you and will make you excited too.

I had an incredible experience working with Nicole as a first-time homebuyer. Since I had no prior experience in purchasing a home, Nicole guided me through every step with patience, professionalism, and deep market knowledge. From the start, Nicole provided well-researched price comparisons of similar recently sold units, which helped me make an informed offer. With her confidence and expertise, she successfully negotiated $30,000 off the asking price—an outcome I am truly grateful for! She answered all my questions in detail, ensuring I fully understood the property before proceeding. She also recommended general and pest inspections to protect me as a buyer, giving me peace of mind. During negotiations, she even secured a seller credit to cover the inspection costs, which was a huge bonus! Beyond the purchase, Nicole and her excellent team continued to impress me. They gifted me a one-year home warranty covering appliances, the refrigerator, and almost everything in my unit. This thoughtful gesture gave me an added sense of security and truly made me feel valued as a client. Even after closing, Nicole followed up to check if I needed any help or had any questions. Her ongoing care and dedication to her clients make her the best agent! I highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, skilled, and genuinely caring real estate professional.
