I had been trying to sell my house for 9 months. Feeling frustrated, I decided to contact Andrea Gordon whom many others said would make a difference. She and her team had creative approaches focusing on the current market. Through her marketing approach she got the job done. Her team were in total support of me and my goals during negociations and final closing. What a difference....many thanks! read more

If you are selling a home and want great results + a great experience, hire Andrea Gordon. Andrea sold our North Berkeley home in 3 days for 8% over asking, followed by a seamless 30-day close with no contingencies.

Andrea's historical results speak for themselves and her process is professional, straight forward, efficient, and incredibly low stress. Most importantly, Andrea is an expert in positioning, staging, marketing, pitching and closing. In real estate, past success is the best indicator of future success.

Andrea is excellent -- professional, thoughtful, straightforward, knowledgeable, and a true strategic partner. Unconditionally recommend. And she's a delightful person which makes the whole thing better! :-] read more

Andrea took over our listing from a previous agent and had our house sold within a week. Her marketing team and her staff are amazing, and she has the resources and networks that are second to none. Andrea knows the market, and I will only use Andrea for all of my real estate needs in the future. read more

I had worked with Andrea before, selling the North Berkeley house of a family friend that was full of the results of decades of accumulating and suffering from decades of deferred maintenance, but this time it was different. This time, my brother and I were selling the house we grew up in, the North Berkeley house that my family had lived in for sixty-six years. The moment we signed with Andrea my brother and I gave a combined sigh of relief. She and her team took charge of all the details and advised us accurately about the cost of the cosmetic remodeling needed to get the best price on the current market. Andrea's contractors did a fine job at a fair price and the physical transformation of the house was nothing short of miraculous. The staging and photography were impeccable. Thanks to Andrea, we got a very good bid, in spite of the challenges of the current housing market. I do not hesitate to recommend Andrea and her team, and I would work with her again in a heartbeat. read more

Andrea is super knowledgeable about the market and works hard. She will give an honest opinion, has exceptional communication skills, and is fun to work with. My husband and I have bought/sold several homes in the Bay Area over the years, and Andrea is the best, and added huge value. read more

Andrea and her wonderful motivated team worked with us every free weekend day we had until we found houses we wanted to bid on. They helped us see lots of houses, and make a strong bids with all the info available. We found a house worth bidding within a 2-3 months and got lucky with our first real bid (which we ended up dropping a couple times too). We couldn't be happier to be in the darling little house of our dreams. read more

I have made multiple purchases in the Bay Area and I have never encountered an agent as pushy and rude as this woman. I called her on the phone to inquire about one of her listings and one would think she was trying to get RID of potential buyers! She didn't want to answer any of my questions, said she was very busy and rushed to get off the phone. Let me reiterate, I've made 10 purchases in the Bay Area, and I know how agents are supposed to behave. This is a SERVICE industry, and it is their JOB to answer questions and do their best to show their listings to as many people as possible. Because of her, I lost interest on one of her listings. I feel bad for anyone using her as a listing agent, I would NEVER want this woman selling my house! read more

After 6 months on the market with no results, it was time to do everything I could do to sell my property. I changed realtors and focused on experience with middies to high rise condos, very local to the area. I interviewed 4 with 3 basic questions, who do you see as the ideal buyer, what's your marketing strategy and what is your sales strategy. Andrea had an approach for each and within 6 weeks of signing with Andrea, the property was sold. Andrea and her team handled everything which was important to me as I was living across the country. I highly recommend Andrea. read more

Andrea helped me and my daughter to find a beautiful home. She was knowledgeable, thorough and her colleague Rachel Devlin was amazing at helping a first time buyer navigate a daunting process. All the props to this amazing team! read more

Andrea and her team did a fantastic job with my home sale. I currently live overseas, and they seamlessly coordinated with a number of different service providers, some suggested by her and some that I requested, to complete all inspections, repairs, upgrades, and beautification prior to the sale. I was initially looking for a realtor when sale prices were dropping and was shocked at the sale price range most realtors I met with were suggesting, as it was much lower than what I thought my house was worth. Andrea suggested a price much higher than other realtors, which was more in line with my expectations, and said "anyone can sell a house for cheap," confident that her team could get me a high price despite the downturn in the market. She was right! My house sold for far over the asking price, in very large part due to her team's work and effort in making the house look beautiful and doing great marketing. I couldn't be happier with the result. read more

Andrea was amazing. We bought a house in record time for a great price thanks to her negotiating skills. She was always very quick to respond to messages and just fun to talk to. Highly recommended. read more

We can't speak highly enough of our real estate agent Andrea Gordon and her outstanding team at Compass. Her professionalism, knowledge of the area, integrity, and exceptional work ethics are without compare. We've had the privilege of working with Andrea not once but twice. From the moment she came into our home she knew exactly what would make it standout. From marketing and inspections to luxurious staging, Andrea created a seamless experience. Our townhome in the Oakland Hills sold within days for a wonderful price. Whether we choose to buy or sell again, we'll always call Andrea! read more

Our experience as sellers dealing with Andrea Gordon and her team was top notch! She and her team are super responsive , informative and very reliable ! She made the process so stress free and smooth and we really appreciate her ! We highly recommend Andrea Gordon ! read more

Andrea is a real professional, top to bottom. She not only knows the local market (with the sales figures to prove it), but she is a process expert, starting with some free advice at the beginning on how to negotiate with tenants for an amicable move-out. She then took confident control of the sale process, from construction sourcing and management, to staging and photography, to open house day with nearly 10 buyers' agents. She knew exactly how to price the property, and we received an offer within 24 hours of open house for $50k over list. Her team is cracker-jack, too. She has a whole machine working for you behind the scenes. Did I mention her fees and staging reimbursement are ultra competitive, the best I found after interviewing 5 agents? You literally cannot go wrong with Andrea Gordon. THANK YOU ANDREA! You have a friend in Paris. :) read more

I was recommended Andrea's team to help me sell my home in Kensington. From the initial meeting to the final close of escrow, Andrea and her team knew exactly what needed to be done, and handled all logistics. I just needed to sign. I couldn't have asked for a smoother experience. read more

Andrea was amazing, knowledgeable, straightforward and got the job done. She promised to get us into the Oakland hills and within 3 weeks she got the job done. Even after the process was finished she has helped and guided us through our first home purchase. I can't say enough good things about Andrea and would recommend her highly. read more

Andrea was such a delight to have in our corner with the whole process of finding our beautiful Victorian in Alameda. Down to earth and very professional all at the same time. She made us fill like family and top priority which was assuring. She knows the East Bay like the back of her hand and is looking out for your best interest. Andrei and I are so happy we got the pleasure to work with Andrea. We love you read more

Andrea Gordon - Compass - Real Estate Agents Near Me - Berkeley, California

Andrea Gordon delivers. Having been involved in numerous real estate transactions over the years, we have come to believe that the single most important attribute in a real estate agent is one who produces results. For a seller, that means finding someone who will own the sales process, who has a proven, systematic approach to driving traffic that will result in offers, offers that are 'clean' and that will meet or exceed your price expectations. Andrea Gordon recently represented us in the sale of our house in the Berkeley, CA hills. The property had previously been listed by a different agent, without generating any offers. After taking it off the market for 6 months, we turned the listing over to Andrea Gordon and her team. Andrea presented us with a clear proposal how we would most effectively sell our house. Her plan included making some investments to showcase the property in an optimal manner, with a focus on maximizing our return on said investment. All of the logistics were handled by Andrea and her team, and every one of the services she used to refine our already beautiful home performed outstanding work. While the house was being prepped, Andrea started a multi-faceted marketing drive, effectively presenting our property to a wide range of targeted customers before it was even listed on the MLS. This was fundamentally different from what we had experienced with other realtors, who's main objective appeared to be more of a "numbers game": drive as much traffic as possible and hope that one of the prospects fit the buyer profile for our specific property. Our results speak for themselves: we had a dozen showings during the 1st weekend that the house was listed (keeping in mind that this is during Covid-19), had true interest from several potential buyers, and received an offer above asking and no contingencies a few days thereafter. Less than 4 weeks later we closed escrow, without encountering any issues or delays. Having a real estate representative who is experienced, knowledgeable, ethical, and personable is important, but it means little if she or he cannot sell your home (or help you purchase one). Andrea has all of the aforementioned attributes, but on top of all that, she delivers results. We would obviously use Andrea and her team again and can whole-heartedly recommend her to be your representative for any real estate transaction. read more

Andrea Gordon was a great help to me in a difficult time, she has a great understanding of the market, and all that goes into the process. She guided me through the probate issues as well. Andrea and her team made it so I could be as involved or not as I chose to be. The whole team was super helpful, responsive and friendly through the entire process. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND using this team for any real estate needs. I cannot express strongly enough that working with Andrea and her team was such a pleasant experience!! read more

I've worked with Andrea to both buy a house and sell a house. She was able to get us a house with the smallest budget in the Bay Area while other realtors would have turned us away. Three years later when we had to move, she answered the phone as though we'd talked just yesterday. Over the 6 months I was wishy washy about whether to actually sell, she stuck with us. When we finally listed, our house sold in the first weekend over asking price and $100k more than we'd bought it for just 3 years ago. Before listing, she visited and told us just what to do to get our house ready. Then set up and covered all the prep work (like yard work and photography) that made our house shine. On top of it all, she has a warm and genuine personality that makes the relationship feel more like a friendship than a business partnership. read more

I can't conceive of finding a better agent for anyone trying to buy or sell in the East Bay than Andrea Gordon. I've bought 4 homes in the Bay Area and was lucky enough to find Andrea for the purchase of my most recent one..Over the course of our 4 month search Andrea consistently found us properties that matched our criteria before they went on the market, properties that were undervalued (incredibly rare in such a hot market), and correctly predicted the final sale price of properties with multiple offers on a regular basis. I've never worked with a realtor that has her depth of contacts - it was rare for us to go view property where the seller's agent hadn't worked with her or didn't know of her. She was able to 'talk turkey' with agents and get us what the minimum offer they would accept would be and really made me feel like I had insider knowledge when it came time to make a bid. When our mortgage application hit a snag, she even had contacts within our lending institution that were able to kick start the process and get us our loan closed quickly. We had four people involved in the buying decision, which should send a shiver down the spine of anyone, but once she'd gotten to know all of us, she quickly narrowed down our search area and never wasted our time on properties that wouldn't fit our need. She was able to navigate and reconcile differing opinions, offered a shoulder to cry on when needed, helped us figure out what we wanted without being pushy, and when we finally found the home of our dreams, closed on it like a killer. I really don't think we could have gotten our dream home without her and the experience was a lot less stressful knowing we had her in our corner. I have learned to trust her instincts and knowledge implicitly. The next time I am in the market, there will only be one phone call I make. read more

Andrea is amazing. The Bay Area real estate market can be terribly stressful, but with Andrea's help I found the perfect home and put in a successful offer. She and her team were helpful and supportive through the entire process and made it as easy as possible. She's a lovely, caring human being as well as being great at what she does. I highly recommend working with her. read more

Andrea Gordon was recommended to us by a relative of a close friend who was very enthusiastic about her. She sold his home, helped him to get another one, and worked with his daughter to get her a house. Not knowing much about the Californian real estate market, we were not disappointed when meeting Andrea - she knows the Berkeley area and the real estate business very well. She answered all our questions and gave us a lot confidence in her capabilities and her detailed knowledge of the East Bay Real Estate market. We searched with her help for about three months and finally got the right property. She helped us to find and select mortgage brokers, then, she guided us through the whole buying process. Thank you, Andrea, for your good advice and your support. read more

Simply put, Andrea made all the difference in our successful search for a home in the Bay Area. My wife and I mentally and emotionally prepared ourselves for a grueling, long-term search - but honestly, Andrea made it actually feel easy. She's a straight shooter, but also incredibly empathetic and warm. She also knows the market in the Bay Area better than anyone we've talked to before. Having her in your corner as a buyer is a huge advantage. We highly recommend Andrea! read more

Extremely knowledgable, always available, and knows the process. She came highly recommended, and still exceeded expectations. I think it is fair to say we were able to find and close on a property much quicker than anticipated due to her teams expertise. read more

Andrea Gordon is one of those rare people you meet who make you feel comfortable right away. She is extremely knowledgeable about Bay Area real estate and she specializes in the Eastbay but her expertise is an asset in any market. Andrea was able to negotiate, and manage the messiest deals of all deals. We had a double contingency situation. We were buying a house in Orinda and had our offer accepted with a contingency to sell our house in 25 days. At the end of the 25 days we received an over asking offer but it came with a contingency as well. The buyer of our house had to sell their house first! They scrambled to get their house to market and received an offer in a few weeks. Then came the negotiating. They received a lower than expected offer which started a chain reaction where all parties had to renegotiate their prices. Needless to say she expertly navigated us through the process and we are now living in our dream home. We couldn't have done it without her vast experience in every aspect of home buying and her relationships with so many agents in the bay. Sorry this review is late. Do yourself a favor give Andrea a call, she is truly a gem of a person. The awesome realtor part is a bonus! Thank you for everything Andrea! read more

Andrea was highly responsive, engaged, and solution oriented. This is a tough market for sales of condos given that people are not wanting to have to be in contact with neighbors. Andrea was very flexible. When I noticed a problem with the 3D virtual tour, she had the camera person come back and re-take the photos. When I wanted to show my place as a 2 bedroom even though legally it was a one bedroom, she had the staging company come back and add a bed to the second level of my condo. When I wanted to push back the closing date, she contacted the buying agent without hesitation. She engaged fully in helping my neighbor with colors for the exterior. At every step she was there, guiding the process, providing her expertise and solving issues. I recommend Andrea and her excellent team highly. read more

Andrea is a great realtor and a wonderful person. She was able to help us buy our first home and made the process as painless as possible. She is a great people person and was able to convince the seller to sell us the house even though we didn't have the highest offer. A magician! read more

A big thank you to Andrea and her team for their hard work in selling my Oakland condo quickly and at the right price. I especially appreciate their assistance and professionalism through the selling process. Andrea and her team have all been fabulous to work with! I am grateful and appreciative. read more

What to say about Andrea? Andrea was the person who helped us find our home in the Grass Valley neighborhood 10 years ago... and now recently carefully and with boundless experience helped us sell it. Andrea is an expert with a fantastic sense of the market and for us... absolutely compassionate. I would recommend Andrea as a kind, funny and patient realtor who can get things done. With her help, our home sold fast and painlessly. We as first time sellers were probably challenging with our constant fears and hesitations, but ultimately with her help we sold. Highest recommendations to Andrea and her team. read more

See all

Andrea is an incredible person and realtor. In these uncertain and changing times, she worked tirelessly to help get us our first house. We ended up winning the bid on our dream house against 6 other offers, thanks to her excellent advice. Both her and her associate John were incredibly helpful throughout the home-buying process - especially for two first-time buyers. They are incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, and full of great advice. I honestly don't think we'd have this house without them. We can't recommend Andrea and the team highly enough! read more

When it came time for us to sell our Oakland home, it was no question who we'd choose as our agent: Andrea Gordon! Having worked with Andrea as our agent when we purchased the home many years prior, we knew from experience the competence and care with which Andrea handles business. She is a pro in every sense. Not only does she know the market; she also knows how to work with people to get things done, smoothly and happily! She sold our home in the middle of a pandemic and showed ingenuity in doing so. The entire process was seamless, which is particularly remarkable considering the circumstances in which it took place. read more

She listened to our needs and was very responsive. She educated us on the geography, which areas we would love and which not so much ... She was very patient and understanding. In the end ... we got our dream home! I highly recommend her! read more

Andrea Gordon is an excellent agent. She came highly recommended by a colleague, and now I know why. We are third-time home buyers, but this was the first time we purchased a place in California. Andrea helped us understand the differences between buying in California versus Washington D.C., where our first two houses were. She walked us through all of the steps and made sure we asked all the right questions. She also knows everybody, so if we ever wanted more information, she would simply call people up and get us the info we needed. When we were at open houses we would get asked "who are you working with?" and as soon as we said Andrea Gordon, everyone knew exactly who she was! That was a great feeling. Andrea knows all of the Oakland/Berkeley neighborhoods and their markets. She has a nose that can sniff out water and mold and has an eye for a good deal or opportunity. She is super responsive and has a terrific Executive Assistant, Shawna Jones. If you want someone who is going to protect you and your interests, Andrea Gordon is who you want to work with! I highly recommend Andrea! read more

Andrea is a top seller in the Berkeley/Oakland area. When you work with her, it immediately becomes clear why: she is smart, highly experienced and incredibly hard-working. She knows exactly how to prepare a house and price it for this market, and she and her team relieved me of so many worrying details. For example, she was able to quickly get me multiple bids for a tricky outdoor stairway project that needed completing before we could list. My house was not an easy house to sell and I knew if anyone could do it, it would be Andrea. She urged me to come to market early in the new year, supported me to get there, and we were in escrow within a week of listing, with a ton of interest. I also did better in the sale financially than I had imagined possible. Because of her deep experience, there isn't much Andrea hasn't seen before in real estate, and she was able to help me retain perspective at several difficult points in my process with calm and well-reasoned advice. She is also naturally approachable and has a wicked sense of humor so she is just plain fun to work with. She is the best selling agent you could choose in this area. read more
