I had a very positive experience with Monica, I have known her for about ten years so I knew she’d have my best interest at heart, which is why I originally reached out. Once I showed interest in a house she immediately had the disclosures over to me and worked around my crazy schedule to show me houses. We looked at probably about 30 houses and I never felt as if she was frustrated or irritated to go “again”. Once I found a house I liked she moved very quickly to get my offer in and negotiate on my behalf. Through the whole closing process Monica was very communicative and explained things to me that I was unsure of. Even now that I have closed she has sent me little updates and reminders to make sure everything is good to go and in my name. If you are a first time home buyer I truly recommended Monica as she brings a sense of fun into the process but also makes you feel secure that everything needed is being done. Thank you again Monica ❤️

Our family home of 46 years was an "as is" property with lots of potential. Monica was professional, knowledgeable, and a seasoned agent as she guided us through the process of selling our family home. She understood the home inspections, city inspections with the understanding of city permits were the key in getting the house sold as is. She was always available for questions and quick to response by email or text which kept me and my brothers in the loop. Monica staged the home, held open houses and knew how to market the property properly. Compass is a trust worthy real estate company that you hire. As one of the toughest markets to buy or sell a home she got it done. Thank you Monica Gioukaris from the Compass office in Oakland for all your help.

My husband and I had the best experience working with Monica. We are so glad we met her. Monica is very knowledgeable aand professional all around about today's market and helped guide us through the whole process from beginning to end. Monica was very mindful of our budget the entire time and getting to know us and our family she was able to know what we'd like. She helped clear up any doubts we had and was very patient with us explaining everything thoroughly so we could fully understand. Monica went above and beyond for us always keeping our best interest in mind. We are grateful to her for making our first home buying experience smooth & memorable. Thanks Monica for everything, we truly appreciate it.

Monica made my first time buying experience wonderful . She was in constant communication regarding the properties and was there each step of the way . I was surprised at all the paperwork that came with buying , but Monica was there to go through all the paperwork and answer any questions . God bless her for that . She was patient , kind and available through the 4-6 week process. I couldn’t have done it without her .

Monica's connections and expertise made this experience as smooth as possible. She always kept me in the loop as to what was going on and what I needed to do. She was very professional and responsive to any questions or problems I had.

Monica has surpassed my expectations in the purchase of my home. She worked tirelessly to find the house while considering the circumstances and financial limitations that I have. Actually, I was ready to give up after 6 months of searching. Yet, she was persistent and endured many of my rejections. Finally, I am happy with my purchase. I prayed earnestly if this house was meant for me; it is. I would highly recommend her to potential buyers because she is driven and persistent to help to find their dream homes!!!

Monica was a great realtor and I would recommend her. She went above and beyond when things didn’t go according to plan. I would use her again!

Monica made me feel very confident when it came to working with her in the sale of my home in May of 2023. Being a senior and not at all tech savvy, she tailored her work to my needs by doing all transaction in person with hard copies, putting pen to paper just like “old school”! She handles everything graciously, professionally and also with a great sense of humor to put me at ease. Her meticulous attention to detail, excellent knowledge of the market and timely communication makes her stand out as a Real Estate agent. My homes (worked with her on multiple properties) always got the best exposure and highest sale prices we could get in the current market. I would recommend Monica without hesitation!

Hands-down, we were fortunate to find Monica. By the conclusion of our home buying experience, it feels like we've known Monica for years! When we decided to buy a new home, we were very worried about the market and finding something that would fit our lifestyle. We wanted buying a new home to be fun, and Monica was able to help us keep the process fun with her positive perspective until we found the new home that fit our vision, budget, and lifestyle. As her clients, we appreciate her superior knowledge of the market in this part of CA. Monica knew it was an important part of our process to look around as much as we could until we found a location that resonated with us as we were looking all over the East Bay in different neighborhoods. In each of the neighborhoods we showed interest, she had the necessary knowledge to explain the history and market trends in those areas. As buyers, Monica was able to keep us pointed in the direction we wanted to go. Eventually we ended up where we were headed based on our vision, budget, and lifestyle. With Monica being positive and keeping us pointed in the right direction in line with our vision, we were able to manage the emotional swings we had with the whole real estate process. By the end of the process we felt more knowledgeable about how the real estate business works. It would be fair to say we felt as though we really accomplished something. We would highly recommend Monica as anyone's real estate agent. She takes her real estate serious while making the process fun. Monica is a kindred spirit, an excellent communicator, and possesses a confident, professional way of doing business. Monica is a fabulous real estate agent!

Working with Monica in selling our mom's home was a great experience! She was professional and we truly enjoyed how she was so personable in our very first meeting - Monica has a great sense of humor and knows that selling a home is not an easy task for "1st timers!" Her market knowledge and wealth of resources of contractors and vendors were extremely helpful in selling the house. Monica is direct with her communications, and helped in making our final decision! We are happy to refer Monica to our family and friends in need of real estate agent!!!! Monica is the best!!!!!

Monica helped us achieve buying our dream home within the incredibly short span of three months. From the beginning to the end of the process, she was incredibly supportive and communicative. She was able to help us understand the current market trends, as well as help us know what to look for and how to be prepared for home buying in a competitive market. After our purchase, she continued to help connect us with needed resources and added the most heartfelt and warming touches to the process of our homecoming the first evening in our home. She has both the knowledge and business skills necessary to truly make things happen and it is quite evident that she also cares deeply about her clientele. She is invested in her clients ending up in a home where they are happy and their needs are met. A month after the purchase of our home she is still available to help with any questions that come up regarding home related issues and continues to check in on us. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to buy a home in the Bay Area, as she is truly the best agent around!

From the beginning to the end of selling my condo Monica displayed incredible professionalism, knowledge, expertise and integrity in supporting us through the process. She helped us figure out how to make our condo the most marketable and also work within the current market trends and limitations. By listening to her guidance, we were able to renovate, put on the market and sell our condo in less than two months time, while other condos in our building and neighborhood that were up for sale at the same time continue to sit on the market for several months after this! On top of this she is very kind thoughtful and simply a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is ready to sell or buy a home as she really is the best!
