Review for Daniel Winkler…read more I've worked with Daniel Winkler for years now--he's sold somewhere between 20 and 30 homes for me, and every experience has been exceptional. I just spoke with him the other day, and he's still the same genuine, down-to-earth person I met at the start: full of integrity, professionalism, and consistency. Daniel is the kind of realtor you can trust without hesitation. He delivers results, stays true to his word, and always makes the process smooth. Beyond his proven track record, he's simply a stellar individual and a pleasure to work with. If you're looking for someone who combines experience, honesty, and reliability, Daniel Winkler is the real deal. His company reflects the same values--straightforward, ethical, and committed to excellence.

Winkler Real Estate group really helped us out when it came to finding our dream home. My husband…read moreand I have been looking for a home the past year, so when I reached out to Julia - she and her team were top notch. I'm not sure how many times I sent out potential houses I saw on the app to Julia, but no matter what time or day Julia was always open to going with us to look at the house. I loved the honesty that came from Julia and the team. They really look over the disclosures, see if there is anything that their client should be aware of and also what they think of the property. Each individual in the team has their own speciality and I really appreciated that. Julia is well verse to the El Cerrito area, Danielle knows the Lamorinda area, and Jeffrey knows about housing structures. They would answer any questions we had and so thank you to this amazing team! We were able to find our dream home thanks to this wonderful team! Would definitely go back to them if we needed to do this all over again.

This review is a long time coming! We have rented with Hudson McDonald properties for over 12 years…read morenow and have decided that it's time to move on. We were at the ABSW campus (Bracher and Gray buildings) on Benvenue Ave. The management company kept the building in excellent condition, all common areas were cleaned regularly and they were constantly improving the unit. They upgraded the intercom system and put a camera in the mailroom to allow secure delivery of packages. During our time there they upgraded the carpets in the main area, and installed gated parking around the complex. Any time issues arose whether maintenance or neighbors complaining about this or that the company was nothing but reasonable. After 12 years I have nothing negative to report. Huge thanks to Aurelia, Jenny, Gary and Alan for making over a decade of living arrangement in Berkeley a pleasure!

I love living on the Pacific School of Religion campus. It is gorgeous and I would recommend it to…read moreanyone. The property manager, Edie, is a huge standout. He is kind and seems to really care about his residents. His emails to us are always funny and informative. I would strongly recommend living here. I am a UC Berkeley engineering student and the location is unbelievably close to all my classes. Often I will leave for class 4 minutes before the start time and still get there early. The views from the roof of the 1815 building are phenomenal and the neighborhood is safe and quiet. It's also very close to downtown, and only a 9 minute walk to BART. I also feel like I'm a part of the PSR community. I've made many friends in the building and I'm already sad that I will move out when I graduate. Hudson McDonald management is great too. I haven't had many issues, but most have been resolved same day! (I sent an email about a leaky kitchen sink at 10pm and someone was there with a new faucet at 9am the next morning).

I was an owner at Uptown Place for a few years. I don't see any recent reviews, so here are my…read morehonest thoughts of the building/location: Pros - - Great location. Centrally located in Downtown Oakland, the building is a quarter-mile walk to BART, half-a-mile to Lake Merritt, and a mile to Jack London Square. A few blocks away from the Fox and Paramount. There is also a bus stop right in front of the building that can take you to SF. - Really nice, spacious floor plans with amazing views. The building is 8-floors and has clear views of the entire Oakland city scape. - Overall the building is well-kept and clean. The cleaning crew does the great job. It is also a pretty quiet and mellow building with many young families and working professionals. Cons - - It's downtown Oakland, so be vigilant. Don't leave your car parked on the street in front of the building overnight, as car break-ins in the area are very almost a daily occurrence. There is also a lack of security, so the homeless and thieves often sneak into the garage and mail room over and over again. The HOA has always leaned against hiring security due to expenses, so it's on you to project yourself and your stuff. - As with any condo building, the HOA fees are high. In 3-years my monthly rate increased almost 33%. There are also minimal amenities, other than a small "gym". - There are move-in and move-out fees ($250) and also potential fees for large deliveries. If you don't pay, they will look you up on camera and fine you. Don't take the risk. The HOA is very involved (and a little strict), which can be a good and bad thing. Follow the rules and they won't bother you. Otherwise you will be ratted out on the building's FB group. - No guest parking.

I decided to expand my condo search to Oakland. This building is newer (built 2009) than a lot of…read morethe ones I've looked at in SF so it doesn't have the maintenance/financial problems that older buildings in SF seem to have. It's 8 stories and 88 units, that's a lot 8s which is good luck ;-) Also it seemed to have great reviews on here from other residents... Walk Score was 98, almost perfect. Transit Score was 75 which means maybe a short was to public transit and bike score (for those than bike) was 94. So if you don't own a car you should be ok here. I also wanted to make sure the HOA was doing ok financially. I've had some bad experiences with my current condo. HOA Score was 6.74 which is decent. Looks like they had some overspending the last couple years but their reserve funding was excellent. Exactly what I like to see in considering owning for the long term! Unfortunately the unit I was looking at was taken off the market.

We first met Deidre 13 years ago, when she helped us purchase our home in Crocker Highlands. We…read morekept in touch over the years and relied on her expertise again in our search for a new house with more space. We knew that the Berkeley market would be competitive and were prepared to be disappointed when we put in our first offer on a beautiful Craftsman home in Elmwood. The seller had received 14 offers and we went in with two contingencies - so our offer was a long shot. But Deidre successfully negotiated the sale and helped us get into our dream home! Deidre and Nicole made the home buying process so easy. We recently worked with them again in the sale of our Crocker house. This is where we saw Deidre's creativity really shine! She is a terrific writer and did such a wonderful job describing our home and showcasing all of the improvements we had made. The marketing videos, website, photos and postcards were so stylish and creative. Deidre and Nicole came up with cost effective strategies to get our house ready for sale. They really understand the market and know what buyers are looking for. We were thrilled that so many people showed up to tour our home. And at 41% over asking, the sale price exceeded our expectations. We loved working with Deidre and Nicole and highly recommend them!

There's a reason Angelo and his team have 160 five star reviews (and counting). We worked with…read moreAngelo to find a SFH with some pretty specific requirements. Once we met him, we knew he'd be the perfect agent for our search given his decades of experience working in the Bay Area markets we were targeting. The best part of the whole experience is for us is that Angelo stayed in constant contact and was proactive with finding properties that met our somewhat strict requirements. Every day he would proactively send us new listings as soon as they came on the MLS, and he was instrumental in helping us write competitive offers on the few homes that we liked. In the end, with Angelo's guidance, we were able to beat out several other competing buyers to secure a home that checked all our boxes and was by far the nicest we'd come across in our months of searching. We feel incredibly lucky to have had him on our side from day 1 to the day we got the keys. I would (and will be) recommending to literally anyone who's looking to buy or sell property in the Bay to reach out to Angelo and his team first!

I would highly recommend Angelo to anyone looking to sell their home!
