My wife and I just bought a wonderful home in Oakland. Chimene was masterful as we weathered the emotional ups and downs of our home search. In particular, her deep understanding of the neighborhoods guided our search to areas both within our price range and offering the type of home we sought. She was incredibly accurate in her forecasts of final sales price for individual homes which was crucial to our bidding decisions. All that, AND, she is absolutely delightful! I enthusiastically recommend her!
