We worked with Irene to get our first house! She represented both sides the buyers (us) and the sellers. She was easy to work with and always checked in on us to make sure the whole deal goes through smoothly. Highly recommend her. She’s a pleasure to work with!
I worked with Irene Borz – an excellent agent. She listed the house in The end of March and we were on contract in 6 days, at much more than asking price. She is an excellent negotiator with a very personalized touch. Highly recommended!
I've known Irene for almost 25 years now, and have just closed our 7th transaction together ?? I've seen Irene growing professionally throughout the years, always staying on top of trends, technologies, rules and regulations, legislation and best practices. And always on her client side: knowledgeable, enthusiastic, compassionate, caring... never pushing, always willing to accommodate her client needs and schedules. She is always there for me - as a friend, as a professional, as a person I can trust.
Irene is passionate about her work and is not afraid to voice her opinion. She works with top service providers in real estate adjacent areas, such as loan mortgage officers, staging companies, real estate photo/video providers, attorneys, etc. Irene displays excellent communication skills, problem solving abilities, and area analysis. Above all, Irene demonstrates remarkable honesty, openness, and ethics.
We started to work with Irene when the market was probably the hottest one in the history (at least in California). We wanted to purchase a single family house which should not be too old and... it should have a backyard. Yes we clearly understand it is a kind of an extremely challenging and tough request taking into the account: location, year built, type of property and price, of course the price. However, Irene told us she will take care of it and our future house and will develop a strategy to make it happen. And she did it, we purchased a house just in a couple weeks. The house we exactly wanted. She payed a lot of attention to the work with the sellers and their agent and she was always responsive, which I and my husband really appreciate. Thank you, Irene.
Irene is a fantastic and professional Broker. This is the second home Irene has sold for us and, with both homes, Irene had us in contract within a week and well over asking price. We could not be happier with her service. She is extremely detailed-oriented, quick and efficient with her communication, knows the market inside and out, and always had our best interests in mind during the entire process. Without a doubt, we will utilize her again in the future and will not hesitate to refer family and friends.
We had not imagined that selling a home could be so... convenient. Irene organized the pre-sale repairs, cleaning and decoration of the house, all was included in the package of her services. The entire process of selling was pointed to the main target - sell the house for the price acceptable for us. Irene was always available for our calls and emails but usually she called us first. She negotiated hard on our behalf. Maybe even too hard - one of the potential buyers made such high offer that he could not actually afford. We recommend everybody to work with this seasoned Broker who devotes all her experience and energy toward selling your home. Thank you Irene! Lev and Elena, Happy sellers of 327
Irene sold my home fast and for an excellent price. Throughout my rather complicated transaction, Irene has been incredibly thorough, patient, responsive, and kind. She held my hand every step of the way, and was both flexible in accommodating my requests and requirements, and firm in driving to the agreed upon date. Always smiling and warm, she builds rapport with everyone invited in the transaction, but always holds her client's needs first. It was a pleasure working with Irene, and I am absolutely certain that I will work with her again, and will recommend it to all my friends.
Irene and her team went out of their way to make this a very positive and memorable experience. I never felt alone and I knew Irene and her team were with me every step of the way. Any questions I had were promptly answered even late at night or early in the morning. The kindness and respect she showed my family was truly exceptional.
It is with pleasure and appreciation that we share our comments on our experience with Irene Borz, broker/owner at 1 Team Realtors in the listing and sale of our home and to express our complete satisfaction with the entire process. Throughout the entire progression Irene was professional, meticulous, and motivated exhibiting an impressive work ethic and the ability to meet our every need. Irene provided us with outstanding research about the market and the value of our home, as well as a very strong price and marketing strategy for the sale process. She provided a profile of the house for people viewing and followed up with every single one of them. Irene was punctual and promptly returned all phone calls and emails. She was extremely diligent and persevered to complete the sale timely. Irene illustrated an understanding of contract details, negotiation protocol and related documentation requirements. We found Irene’s expert advice and composed reassurance to be calming to us when minor difficulties arose throughout the entire process. The experience at each phase of the sales effort was exceptional, such as innovative efforts in developing prospects, useful insights on pre-listing renovation/staging, preparation of marketing materials, effective showings and proactive facilitation during the sale negotiations/due diligence. All of these tasks, whether business-related or interpersonal, were accomplished with a noticeable degree of competence, integrity, veracity and style. Not only does Irene represent the best in a real estate agent/broker she has in my opinion redefined a new level and best of class standard by which all agents and brokers should strive to achieve. We would be delighted to answer any specific questions regarding Irene’s and 1 Team Realtors performance.
My wife and I had a wonderful experience with Irene and Gary and now we have our first home! Finding a home is hard in Bay Area. Finding a home we like is even harder. Irene and Gary provided comprehensive and professional help along the house hunting journal. Among all the good things I could name, the most important fact I would like to bring here is what Irene and Gary did after we submitted the offer. They actively talked to the listing agent to reach a great deal for us, collaborated all parties to make sure the finance process was correct and on time, double checked all the words and letters in documents for us to ensure the final closing period was smooth, etc. Really appreciate all the time and effort they spent and highly recommend all buyers, especially first home buyers to consider their fantastic services.
We are repeated customers of Irene Borz. Her expertise and knowledge are amazing. Her negotiation skills are above and beyond of what you'd expect from the realtor. Her position of defending her customers and constantly looking for a best possible solutions makes a real difference. I mean real real difference. If you want to buy or sell a house and you want someone to make this transaction as smooth and painless as possible, choose Team 1 Realtors owner Irene Borz. Addition from Iryna: I feel privileged to have been introduced to Irene Borz more than 13 years ago when we were selling our house and needed a real professional to help us with that. When we recently decided to buy a new house, it was no brainer for us that we will ask Irene for her help again. She has the expertise, experience and necessary resources at her disposal to make sure we will get the right home. From educating and guiding us throughout the process, providing all the information needed, constant communication, being very responsive and highly punctual, working with Irene and her company (in face of Gary and Dominique) was a great experience as they were critical in making sure we were able to close on our home in 25 days. Starting from the first meeting where our options were discussed till the closing day Irene was fully involved in all steps by providing us with guidance, resources and sometime even moral support. Search for houses was very smooth; all visited houses were thoroughly analyzed personally by her and highly professional suggestions were provided. We received the best possible services that gone far beyond our expectations and we will definitely be working with her again on selling/buying our next house.
