Strong market savvy and cares about your goals.

Dana set reasonable expectations at the start. She gave us cost estimates that turned out to be surprisingly (to us) accurate. She outlined the entire process in advance and gave us a very clear sense of her strategy — and so, as we hit key steps, we understood what was happening and why. We felt like we were all on the same page from our first meeting through closing. The ongoing conversation with her kept us at ease. When we were nervous, she was steady. When we were tired, she was pleasant. And that, really, was a big part of this. As high as the stakes were, every interaction, every call, every meeting was easy. Those meetings lightened our mood. We so enjoyed working with her.

We recently worked with Lisa for the second time, this time to sell our home in Montclair. Once again, she delivered incredible results. From the beginning, Lisa took ownership of the entire process end to end. She coordinated inspections, repairs, cleaning, staging, photography, and all the countless details that come with preparing a home for sale. It made what could have been an overwhelming process feel manageable and organized. One thing that stood out was how proactive and resourceful she was when unexpected issues came up. For example, after a particularly large storm, we discovered a minor roof issue 2 days before offers were due. Lisa jumped into action, getting multiple roofers out the very next day so we could quickly understand the problem and address it before offers were due. Her fast response helped reassure potential buyers and likely contributed to at least one additional offer. Lisa also did a remarkable job marketing our home. Through her network and outreach, our listing gained major attention online, including going viral on TikTok. As a result, our open houses were packed with 60+ groups each day. Despite a challenging market for sellers in Oakland right now, we received 8 offers and ultimately sold significantly above asking (and even above our own hopeful expectations). Throughout the process, Lisa was highly engaged and communicative, checking in frequently with updates. Most importantly, Lisa got results while making a stressful process quite simple for us. If you're looking for someone who knows the Montclair and Piedmont markets and will truly roll up their sleeves for you, we highly recommend working with her.

Teresa really knows the ins and outs of condo buying. She read all the disclosures down to the meeting minutes and gave me a clear evaluation of what I'd be signing up for including steering me away from one condo and conveying the strong management group of the one I ended up buying. I would frequently think things through out loud on phone calls or at the given property and Teresa always had time to listen, support and feedback as needed. When it came down to bidding and countering, she supported my choices, even when it meant the bid might not work out and in the end I got the place I wanted. Not sure how it could have gone better.

My house required a lot of TLC to get it ready to be sold, Anastasia took care of everything and kept me informed through every step of the process. She made selling my house simple and stress free. She has an excellent eye for detail and arranged to have all repairs completed and had the home staged more beautifully than I could have thought possible. I expected my home to be on the market for a while but she had it sold within weeks of listing and for more than my asking pricing. I don't hesitate to recommend Anastasia to any of my friends interested in buying or selling a home. This has been a great experience and I would absolutely work with her again.

Caitlin was highly responsive, very professional, and took on our difficult-to-sell home with positivity. This helped the process tremendously.

Marianne and Lindsay Scott were my realtors for selling a multi-unit building in Oakland. They were a great mother daughter team—well-informed, timely, thorough, and professional. They answered all of my questions and provided infinite wisdom throughout the entire process. Not only were they professional, but they were also enjoyable and fun to work with, adding just the right amount of humor to what can sometimes be an emotional business of selling a beloved asset. Thank you both for bringing light, honesty, integrity, and wisdom to selling my building, and more importantly, for finding the best possible clients to be the new owners.

Buying a house is a complicated process with many ups and downs, but luckily we had Marianne and Lindsay to guide us through every step. They were incredibly helpful, always responsive, and genuinely excited to show us properties. In such a competitive housing market, you need agents who truly have your back — and Marianne and Lindsay absolutely do.

I had a wonderful experience working with Marianne Scott on the purchase of my Berkeley home. She had incredible knowledge of the market and neighborhoods and how to navigate it. I really appreciated her knowledge and ability to spot and explain structural issues or construction related issues and flag possible concerns. Marianne was extremely responsive and always available to take me around to look at houses or answer my questions. Marianne was not pushy and really seemed to want to be sure I got the right house and for a fair price. I would wholeheartedly recommend Marianne to anyone looking for a real estate agent who is super knowledgeable, responsive and genuine!!

Alisa was professional, responsive, patient, and truly went above and beyond to help us find a condo that met all of my elderly mother’s needs, including budget, location, and accessibility without stairs. She was extremely knowledgeable, and whenever she didn’t immediately have an answer to one of my questions, she took the initiative to quickly find the information we needed. She understood that we were working within a very tight budget and skillfully negotiated on our behalf, ultimately helping us secure the perfect home for my mother. I highly recommend Alisa to anyone in need of real estate services.

Working with Angela Clay and Julie Dudum was a smooth and positive experience from start to finish. They were knowledgeable about the market, responsive to questions, and always made sure we felt informed and confident in each decision. What stood out most was their attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile, whether it was scheduling showings at convenient times or explaining complex steps in a simple, clear way. Throughout the process, Ms. Angela Clay demonstrated strong negotiation skills and genuine dedication to achieving the best outcome. I never felt rushed or pressured, and they consistently prioritized our needs and preferences. We would highly recommend Ms. Angela Clay to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Their professionalism, expertise, and friendly approach made what can often be a stressful process feel much more manageable.

Holly is a great Realtor, I have worked with her for years. She has sold and purchased a number of houses for me. Her service is top rate. We appreciate her vision and knowledge.

Cheryl Hata is an incredible realtor and an amazing human being. We feel very fortunate to have met and worked with Cheryl. She is an outstanding communicator and is seemingly always available to look at houses or answer any questions. We were most impressed with Cheryl’s service post-sale. Since we weren’t moving locally, she not only recommended contractors (HVAC/Flooring), she took it upon herself to meet them at the property to obtain quotes, in order for the project to be completed before move-in. There are many more examples of Cheryl’s dedication to her clients, but suffice it to say that we cannot recommend her more strongly and feel that we not only found a home, we found a friend.

This our first time had Melanie as our real estate agent. If I’m gonna use three words to describe her it would be knowledgeable, communications and efficiency. She found properties that meet what we looking for. She incredibly communicative, promptly answered our calls and emails even late after hours. Keeping us updated on the progress. Her efficiency was remarkable. House views, paperwork’s for offer and acceptance offer by seller all within 3 days. Well done Melanie, and Thank you!!!

Jake was fantastic helping us buy our first home. He listened to our needs and never compromised on what mattered to us. Jake was proactive from the search, to putting together our offer, and then while in escrow he went above and beyond to find and bring in several contractors for quotes so we were ready to start the work we needed immediately after closing. Jake was great to work with and we can’t recommend him enough.
