Real estate teams in Pleasant Hill

We cannot say enough wonderful things about working with Ellyn! As first-time home buyers, we entered the market with a lot of questions, but she guided us through every step of the home-buying process with unmatched patience and expertise. Ellyn took the time to truly listen to us, helping us figure out what we really wanted in a home. Throughout the journey, we felt supported through her thoughtful advice and encouragement. Ellyn was always available whenever we needed to hop on a quick call, answer a question, see a home, or talk through a detail. We are so grateful to her!

As first-time home sellers, we couldn't have asked for a better experience with Ellyn. Having grown up with her as a friend made the process feel even more comfortable, but what truly stood out was her professionalism, honesty, organization, and transparency every step of the way. She took the time to explain everything thoroughly, was always available to answer our questions, and never made us feel like any concern was too small. During negotiations, she provided thoughtful guidance and helped us make informed decisions with confidence. Her communication was outstanding from start to finish, and we always felt supported and well-informed. Selling a home for the first time can be overwhelming, but Ellyn made the entire experience smooth, stress-free, and enjoyable. We couldn't recommend her more highly.

Thank you for your work in the sale of Maybelle. Every step of the way was masterfully done, given the challenges of the property. You made it look effortless, but I know better. It was not easy. Matt, Christie, Dee, and I appreciate your professionalism in effecting a good professional result.

As I write this review, I am a week into new home ownership and still riding high on the exceptional teamwork provided by my all-star realtor team of Lori Legler and Cheryl Hata. These two consummate professionals were nothing short of exceptional in finding me my new home, and the whole experience surpassed all expectations! I recently got a new job and had to relocate from the Seattle area to East Bay – a great opportunity professionally but personally, I was sad to leave my home and had no idea how to navigate this astonishingly competitive real estate market. I asked family friends to recommend the best realtor in the Walnut Creek area – and of course, they connected me with Lori (and Cheryl), and I have thanked my lucky stars ever since. My move was fast and complex, and Lori and Cheryl knew exactly how to get me to my eventual dream home! Every day of this house-hunting adventure, I felt so fortunate to be working with the best in the business: They were truly masterful, all on an incredibly tight timeline, through the unbelievable competition of multiple offers, guiding me on innumerable details and complexities, foreseen and totally unforeseen! I’m a realist and never say this, but everything with my home purchase – thanks to Lori and Cheryl – went without a hitch, to my astonishment and deep gratitude! Experience and expertise matter in this market, and I was lucky enough to be on the winning team: Sending immeasurable thanks to you, Lori and Cheryl!

Working with Kris was awesome end to end. My wife and I were worried because we didn't have any expertise on the real estate market. Kris was very patient explaining everything to us, step by step, she shared what to observe when visiting a property and was extremely knowledgeable about repair and remodeling costs Aside from her professional skills, Kris is a very kind person and you can tell she cares about the people she works with. I'll work with her again in the future no doubt!

Such a great team! Incredibly helpful in finding properties, walking us through options and sorting out the best fit for our needs. Excellent partners in navigating offers and transactions, and very effective in competitive markets. And they are nice! Would highly recommend and would definitely use again.

Dave and Kris made buying our first home smooth sailing. They are knowledgeable, patient, and really aim to understand your needs and goals. The Arneson team was always there for us, answering basic questions and gut-checking us on making emotional choices instead of logical ones. This is extremely valuable as home shopping is stressful and frustrating, especially in such a tough market as the Bay Area. Additionally, the team is fast, efficient, and proactive, making sure we didn't let good opportunities slip by. We're over the moon with our new home and hope to use the Arneson team again when we're ready for our next home!
