Unhei was a stellar agent in every respect. We began our search remotely and she helped us understand the state of the market and the nuances of the area's many neighborhoods. She also thoroughly reviewed disclosure packets for two properties we seriously considered, distilling the most essential points from documents that can feel overwhelming. She continued this exemplary work after we arrived in the area and seriously considered eight more houses, ultimately helping us secure our new home on our first bid. During escrow she communicated promptly with us and the seller's agent and helped us stay in front of the things we needed to know and do. Throughout, she was level-headed, upbeat, and genuinely invested in our goals. We'd recommend Unhei to anyone.

We were first-time buyers on a property that came with some real complexity, and Sebastien was key to making it all work. He handled everything with confidence and calm, knew what mattered, knew what didn't, and never made us feel like we were in over our heads. When we came up against multiple offers and weren't sure we'd come out on top, his strategic approach to the terms — not just the price — ended up making the difference. His charm and ability to put everyone at ease went a long way too. Throughout the whole process he was warm, knowledgeable, and genuinely available whenever we needed him, which as first-time buyers was often. He was the steady hand that kept everything moving. We trusted his read on the market, we trusted his instincts, and he delivered. Would absolutely work with Sebastien again.

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.

Andrea Barberi is truly exceptional. This was our second time working with Andrea — she sold our Berkeley home in 2022 — and there was never a question that we would work with her again when buying in the Berkeley Hills. Andrea guided and supported us through every step of the process, including navigating a challenging seller and a complicated, slow market. She was patient, thoughtful, and incredibly steady. She took us on multiple house tours so we could feel fully comfortable and confident in our decision, and she always kept us excited and positive about the home, even when the process got stressful. What makes Andrea so special is her combination of calm kindness and serious skill. She is mellow, warm, and easy to be around — but behind the scenes, she is absolutely a baller when it comes to defending and advocating for her clients. She stood up for us, helped us negotiate a great deal, and made sure we felt protected throughout the purchase. Buying with Andrea was every bit as excellent as selling with her. We are so grateful for her guidance, patience, and expertise, and we would recommend her without hesitation.

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

Victoria is a powerhouse! She was always positive, forward-looking, and forthcoming, and a delight to work with. She was a good communicator through all modes and usually responded within hours if not minutes. In addition to having a cheerful and empathic disposition, Victoria also provided great insight to the market and properties which helped us as first time Bay Area buyers. On top of all that, she demonstrated that she understood the value and weight of the home-buying journey and we felt well supported throughout this challenging time. We would highly recommend her to anyone!

We had an outstanding experience working with Anja Plowright and her team. From start to finish, Anja was professional, thoughtful, and incredibly attentive to every detail. She guided us through the entire process with clarity and confidence, always making sure nothing was overlooked. Her dedication and expertise truly stood out — she handled everything seamlessly and made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and well-managed. Most importantly, she delivered exceptional results, selling our home in a timely manner and at an excellent price. We are deeply grateful for her support and would highly recommend Anja and her team to anyone looking for a top-tier real estate professional.

We first met Victoria at an open house and she was very forthcoming and helpful as we peppered her with questions. She was honest about the neighborhood and other details. We loved her styling of the house and her personality was so cheerful and positive. We later contacted her when we were ready to start our home buying journey. Victoria was patient with us and fully answered all our questions about the ins and outs of this tight market. Never felt pressured and always supported in our decisions. Her long experience in this market made her well connected and all the listing agents we saw all seemed to know her and respect her - making communication with every party smoother and more effective. Her long list of resources have come in handy even after the closing of our new place. Victoria treated us much like good friends and family as clients and we can say we are now have become friends.

I felt very comfortable working with Theresa. She proved flexible in understanding my choice of condo and made it happen. Teresa first took me through information on the local market, pricing, etc. So when I looked at the condo I was able to understand where it fit in the local market. She was very thorough. I know she was in contact with the Seller’s agent to work out various issues that needed to be resolved before the sale could be completed. Teresa was very good about communicating with me either by phone or email so I had the information I needed to make my final decision. And now I enjoy living in a place that suits me and that was my top choice.

We had a very positive experience working with Laura. We were selling an older house in Berkeley that had lots of charm but also, being an older home, some challenges. Laura was able to enhance the charm but also identify the challenges and help us address them within our budget. Laura is very upbeat and energetic and is able to provide a steady hand during the sometimes up and down process of preparing a home for sale. Her knowledge of the Berkeley real estate market is impressive and gleaned from years of experience. In addition, her contacts in every area of home repair/painting/ inspection etc. allow her to arrange for necessary work to be completed in a timely and budget conscious manner. We would definitely use her again and would wholeheartedly recommend her to prospective buyers or sellers!
