Seller of 1311 Elm St, El Cerrito
Ana and her team were a joy to work with, they supported me fully and let me be as involved as I wanted to be. My journey with Ana started before I was even sure I was going to sell my home. She was so generous with her time; we met several times and she gave me a rough idea of what it would cost to prep my house and what it might sell for. A year or so later I was ready to sell. Ana explained everything thoroughly, gave me a timeline, options of who to work with for the prep/staging and let me weigh in on decisions because I was very attached to my home! In the end my house sold quickly and for a great price! If I had to do it again, it would definitely be with Ana ~ she is super knowledgeable, kind, supportive and fun to work with!

Soren O'Connell helped me sell my house in El Cerrito in May, 2025. He was extremely courteous, always friendly and very accommodating. All of my needs were met and then some. My house looked amazing and sold within a week. I highly recommend Soren as an agent! I would work with him again in a heartbeat!
Seller of 242 Ramona Ave, El Cerrito
This was our very first time selling a house. We loved our home that we lived in for almost 30 years. Soren is a perfect combination of professionalism and warmth. He is an excellent listener and communication with him was easy and seamless. Soren and his partner, Romney, were very experienced and knowledgeable about the market as well as how to present our home to future owners. It was very important to me that some of the traditional features of the home not be changed just for the sake of selling our home. Soren and Romney were on the same page and collaborated with us at every step. They appreciated and valued the classic elements of the house. Soren and Romney recommended contractors to prepare our house for sale - which was a huge weight off our minds. All the contractors who work with Soren and Romney are professional, respectful, hard workers who were completely within our budget range. As with any huge undertaking there will be obstacles and even though we experienced a couple of hiccups, Soren and Romney were always ready with options and solutions. Some of the obstacles could have been very stressful but because of Soren's professionalism and skill at resolving issues, we were able to complete our house sale within our tight time frame. We highly recommend Soren because of his collaborative approach as well as his professionalism and knowledge of the market.

Lorie was wonderful to work with throughout the home-buying process. Her deep knowledge of El Cerrito and the neighborhoods was very helpful for us when looking at houses. Her and her partner Victoria were super fast and responsive and never left us waiting for answers or next steps. We are thankful for her help in getting us quickly into our new home!
