Andrea is heartfelt and genuine from the very beginning. We felt her warmth instantly. When we met her for the first time at an open house, she made us feel at home without any pressure. We ended up buying the house! Even after thr sale has been made, we stay in touch with Andrea and run home remodel ideas by her. We consider her a friend for life!
Andrea became part of our family for the 1.5 years (on and off) we worked with her. She was super helpful in understanding the Oakland market and also in nudging us toward clarity on what we valued and how to refine our decision making process. She tirelessly found us open houses throughout the covid restriction period, joined us on our visits, took our input, and summarized pros/cons of every property and how she saw it fitting into our needs. In the end, we ended up with a house we love and couldn’t be happier. Strongly recommend you let her join your family too!
Selling my Berkeley house with Andrea Barberi was absolutely the right decision. She handled the listing and offering beautifully and got us a great and quick offer. But I’m most grateful for all the work she put in to get the house to show perfectly. Not only did she play the role of selling agent, she was also general contractor, designer, locksmith, plumber, street sweeper, therapist and friend. I look forward to buying a house with Andrea when we move back to the Bay Area. We briefly toured some houses with her in Berkeley and Oakland. I found that her instincts were always right. She intuitively knew what would work and not work for my family. She was gracious enough to spend the day with us and made us feel like she wanted to be there: present, engaged, and entertaining. Andrea is very thoughtful and genuinely cares about all people, especially her clients. If you’re buying or selling, Andrea will provide a positive and nurturing experience throughout the entire process.
I really can’t say enough about how talented and professional Andrea was start to finish! Andrea sold our Berkeley home. Andrea managed the sale of our property beautifully. She always kept us informed and her knowledge of the market is incredible. She handled the management of staging, repairs, gardening and everything in between! We got multiple offers and feel really good about the sale. No other agent could have done a better job! Andrea is simply the best!!!
Andrea is an incredible partner and a significant reason as to why my wife and I were able to purchase our first home. Andrea would downplay this and suggest that “it takes a village to accomplish something of this magnitude,” but this is just her being humble. My wife and I have never purchased a home before this, plus we were entirely unfamiliar with the actual process. Though we knew that the process would be more complex than ordering something on Amazon, we underestimated how many layers exist between “window-shopping” on Zillow and receiving the keys to the front door. Andrea took on the challenge of not only educating us through the ins-and-outs of homebuying (which included walking us through a seemingly endless number of documents) but also helping us figure out what exactly we wanted. Thinking through neighborhoods, mapping out your future milestones, the “dealbreakers”, and so forth were thoughtful exercises that really framed our thinking before we set sights on Richmond Marina. Andrea was remarkably patient with us through all of this – never once rushed us. We first contacted her nearly two years before we actually made an offer and not once did she apply pressure to hurry. She encouraged that buying a home is a multifaceted ordeal and that the right time would reveal itself when we found the right home. And when the time finally did come, Andrea struck with a swiftness balanced with confident wisdom that made our offer ultra-competitive --- ultimately edging us over the finish line. We were told that we were lucky to land our first home on our first-ever offer, yet I think it was more about the leadership Andrea deployed as she positioned us for success. We can’t thank Andrea enough for her leadership in landing us this home. Please reach out to her if you’re looking for a partner that is patient, has a deep knowledge of San Francisco’s East Bay market, and perhaps most importantly, someone who authentically cares that you land the home that you heart
My partner and I just got the keys to our very first home - a dream made true thanks to Andrea. She guided us through every step of the home buying process and helped us navigate the hot Bay Area market with her expertise. Andrea listened to what we were looking for in a home and proactively delivered options suited to our unique needs. She was responsive and knowledgeable throughout the home search and during escrow. Andrea Barberi is an invaluable Realtor - she will go above and beyond to help you find a home you heart.
Andrea helped me and my fiance with buying our first home. Buying a home in the Bay Area is no easy feat, but Andrea was with us every step of the way (even when life often got in the way of our plans!). She possesses so much real estate knowledge and expertise, and also looks out for the best interest of her clients, so you immediately feel like you're in good hands. She is warm and personable the instant you meet her. She is also a master at negotiation, hustle, and follow up - everything you want and need in your agent! I would highly recommend her and look forward to working with her again in the future.
I couldn't have asked for a better partner during my home buying process than Andrea! And that's what she really is, an amazingly supportive, committed and knowledgeable partner. From our initial conversations so she could understand what I was looking for, to her helping me figure out my deal-breakers and "nice-to-have's" and looking for the best listings to fit my needs, talking to agents and HOAs to answer my questions and finally closing on an amazing condo! If you are looking for someone that understand the real state market and will make you her number one priority, look no further!
I met Andrea in one of the Saturday's open houses before COVID. She asked me what type of home I am looking for. I mentioned to her what I am looking for. She exactly found me the one I really looking for almost few years. She is very dedicated to her job, beautiful attitude and very caring. She is very professional.
Andrea kept us on our toes, answered every question we had, and was very timely with her responses! The process was made as easy as she could make it, and we got a great place in the end. We definitely recommend her when buying a new place! Thank you, Andrea!! :) Jessie and Isai
We only worked with Andrea Barberi briefly, but she was a joy to work with. She helped us view and obtain a specific house. She met us promptly and both highlighted the features of the property and home, but also noted any items we would want to be concerned about. She got to know us well enough to advocate for us and personalize us to the seller. When our offer was accepted among the others, she did a thorough review and assessment of the house's quirks so that we knew what we were buying. I would highly recommend working with Andrea.
