Bhavana is a skilled & experienced realtor and accompanied us from the beginning to the end of our transaction. She has answered many of our queries and followed-up with all pending tasks meticulously. Overall, she has been a great help to us & we recommend others to make use of her services.

Bhavana was an excellent help and a wonderful realtor to guide us through our first home-buying experience. She was very knowledgable in how the market works and gave us sound advice that ultimately helped us secure our dream home. As first-time buyers, we were unsure of the process of buying a home, but Bhavana was incredibly patient and understanding and answered every question we had. Bhavana made sure that, not only were we on schedule, but that we were well ahead of schedule. This ensured that we had a smooth escrow period and were not scrambling at the last minute. She made sure to constantly follow-up with all parties involved so that all tasks were completed well in advance. Given the current situation with the Covid-19 Pandemic, it seemed daunting to try and find a house. However, Bhavana went above and beyond in taking the necessary precautions and ensuring the we felt comfortable. Overall it was an excellent experience and we felt lucky to have Bhavana by our side through this process. We would definitely recommend her to other prospective buyers, especially first-time home buyers.

We all know the roller coaster ride and mixed emotions when we are buying first HOME. But before we know this is "it", we need someone who get us there and it was Bhavana who walked that journey with us. We can not thank her enough for helping us throughout the process. She understood our requirements and worked on finding us the right house that we can call a home. We were not that familiar with the area but she did excellent job in getting us acquainted with the area. She knows the Tri-valley area so well and have a reputation in the business which helped us a lot. She knows the business very well. But what makes her stand apart is the interest she takes in her clients. I have spoken to three other realtors but when we spoke to Bhavana, we felt that she was not ONLY about getting the deals closed and get commission, we felt that she was actually buying the house with us. She explained everything starting from doing house tours (We give her A+ for taking every precaution during this pandemic and it is too hard to schedule a tour in times like this), putting offers, explaining every document when signing, constantly connecting with LA and Lender about progress/updates, getting the keys and for her it's not just closing the deals but building relations so she is still staying in touch. We are very happy that we had Bhavana representing us. We can not thank her enough. I=We would definitely recommend Bhavana if you are looking for a good Realtor in Bay Area and especially East bay / Tri-Valley.

We worked with Bhavna on our first home and she guided us throughout the process starting with putting down an offer to Closing. She was always available to answer our questions and provided expert advice making sure that we close on time. She handled conversations with various intermediaries as needed. We would highly recommend her as an ideal partner during your home buying process.

We recently purchased a brand new home in Dublin and Bhavana acted as our buyers' agent. She was fantastic. Not only did she manage to negotiate a lower price, but she also got us more credit at the design center. Her advice and guidance throughout the process was invaluable. She is thorough, and her follow through is consistent and timely. She is knowledgeable about the area and extremely resourceful. I would highly recommend her and we plan to engage her again when it comes time for our next real estate transaction.

Bhavana is committed to getting things done! We got lucky to have found Bhavana who made our dream home become reality. We met Bhavana end of 2019 via Zillow. We weren’t really planning to buy our first home so quickly, but as they say most things happen when you least expect it, ours happened too. After our year end vacation, we thought let’s start going to open house to get the real feel of house buying process. On the first day of our open house experiment, we saw this house - it made both of us feel like - yes , this is how we want our home to be. We had 4 days to put the offer and we were not ready with pre-work one needs when buying primary home. That day we connected back with Bhavana to check if she can help us with this one. Since both of us liked the house so much we wanted to give a try to see if we can make it our own. From then it was next 15-20 days journey where Bhavana worked tirelessly to make sure our offer gets accepted, she was present for every inspection, every to do list that needed to be taken care of, educating us on the process , guiding us on the documentary checks so on. Due to the flu, Bhavana fell sick the day after the offer was accepted. She still made time to be present for the home inspections. And then we find out next day she was moved to the ICU getting treated for pneumonia. This being our first primary home purchase we were obviously in panic state, both for her health and how to manage the transaction! Bhavana put us at ease by ensuring, one of her associates handle our file for next couple of days. Even though she stayed 1.5hr driving distance, she made sure she travelled all the way for every inspections, signing and giving us lovely flowers with house key on the closure. We will recommend Bhavana any day , she knows what she is doing and she is 100% committed to it! Thank you Bhavana, it was truly pleasure working with you!

We were first time home buyers and always wanted to buy a new home. We were under the impression that, it is not necessary to engage with realtors while purchasing a new home. One of my colleagues referred Bhavana and asked us to talk to her. After a couple of meetings with Bhavana we realized that we were wrong. Bhavana is very knowledgeable, professional and thorough, she explained nuances in purchasing a house especially trade-offs between commute vs house type, price negotiation with builders and choosing good financier etc. She understood our needs thoroughly and provided personalized advice. She never pushed us to select a house also encouraged us to visit differ houses before making final decision. She tirelessly showed us the houses in Dublin, Fremont, San Jose, San Ramon and Milpitas. Once we made our choice, she helped us to negotiate the price and her rapport with sales agent helped us to get a house in prime location. Even after the sale is complete, she traveled twice from Dublin to help us on upgrades selection and orientation. She was with us during closure. Being first time home buyers, we are very thankful for her help and support. I highly recommend Bhavana.

My coworker provided me the contact of Bhavana. As a first time home buyer, i was hesitant and was unclear about the home buying process. Bhavana asked me questions to understand what i was looking for in terms of 1) my budget 2) location 3) type of house. After that, she immediately scheduled visits to a few open houses. She was very accommodating and worked around my schedule. We went to open houses in Hayward, Fremont, and Milpitas. She was very knowledgeable about the open houses in the area and the builders. During the open houses, she was very patient with me and answered all my questions which helped me tremendously. Bhavana helped me get a good deal on the house. She tried tirelessly and worked with me and the seller to get the best deal. She helped me through closing even when i was out of the country due to family emergency. Bhavana truly cares about her clients and puts her clients' satisfaction first. She never pushed me to buy and gave me time to make decisions. She is very knowledgeable and gave me valuable information which helped me make my final decision. I strongly recommend Bhavana.
