I had to sell my condo after moving out of the country, which meant I had to rely on Angela to deal with basically everything on my behalf. She handled some minor repairs the property needed, the staging, and she even forwarded my mail for me during the sale. This is the second time I've worked with her and things ever work out that there's a chance to make it three I'll be glad to take it. read more

Angela Tu and Kelly Cerezo were amazing to work with. I had a dated and odd townhouse in the Bay Area that I needed to sell, but I no longer lived in the area. They took care of the entire remodel including styling, organizing contractors, and getting it ready to sell all while I lived miles away and coordinated with them over video calls and texts. They organized everything in a clear spreadsheet so I could keep track of what was being done and when. When the HOA was being difficult and non-communicative they also jumped in to assist me. My townhouse sold for a fair price in a difficult market which I am grateful for. read more

Angela and her team were super great to work with! We rented a property in Santa Clara and she was very responsive not only when scheduling the tour, but also throughout our entire lease whenever we needed anything, and during our move-out. Whenever we needed repairs or had an issue with the property, she responded quickly and sent someone ASAP to get things fixed. She would even reply after hours, that is when you know she truly cares. Another thing worth mentioning is that she's very fair. You always hear about those rumors where property management companies and landlords will take as much of the deposit as possible, but that was not the case. I got my full deposit back when I moved out. That is when you know they run an honest business. Unfortunately, I moved out of town, but if I am ever looking to buy or rent in the area again, I will for sure be calling her up. read more

Angela helped sell my home recently. She did an amazing job. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an agent or property manager.

I'm so grateful that our friend referred us to Angela. It would be our first time renting out our condo and the thought of finding a tenant just added extra stress. We met her early on prior to our finalized move to our new home. At our first meeting, Angela gave us an overview of other properties on the market around our area. She seemed easy to work with and had a good idea of the market. After we moved out, she gave the suggestion of painting our whole entire place. Whenever she had recommendations, she was never pushy, but gave us the space to decide if we wanted to proceed. Since we moved out in the month of December, we figured that it could take a while since the peak season of renters wouldn't be until March. There was a few other rentals in our community as well. To our surprise, we were able to find a tenant to move in by Feb 1. The amazing part was that Angela was on vacation until 1/17, but on 1/19, she told me she already had been showing our place. Angela had a wonderful photographer to take photos of our condo. It really set our location apart from the rest in the community. Our listing was posted on 1/3 and we found a tenant in 22 days! Very Impressive. Thanks so much Angela for taking this burden off our shoulders. read more

From our very first inquiry to the day we closed, Angela took exceptional care of us; I recommend her services wholeheartedly and without reservation! We are grateful for her impeccable attention to detail; her responsiveness and availability (especially when we were up against deadlines, but also in general to field any questions we had); her vast wealth of knowledge and experience in the field; and her kindness and warmth. She felt like family right away and never pressured us in any particular direction. She listened closely to the specifics we were looking for in our next home and also came prepared with her own set of questions for us, designed to hone our search and clarify what was realistic for us. Each showing we went to, Angela was prompt, professional, prepared, and also came with hand sanitizer -- a sign of the times! :) She walked through each house with us with alert eyes and took note of anything that needed extra attention. Once we were ready to move forward with an offer, Angela patiently and expertly walked us through the disclosures and advised us without adding any pressure. She stayed closely involved and available to answer questions, make sure we completed our tasks on time, and to translate these sometimes overwhelming documents into layman's terms. Knowing how competitive the market is right now, we had heard countless stories of families getting outbid over and over, and we were prepared to be on this path for awhile. However, when we found a home we loved, Angela's 15+ years of expertise made ALL the difference. She helped us strategize an offer that kept us highly competitive while still respecting our budget. It was due entirely to her eleventh-hour advice that we were able to get the home we truly wanted. When we finally closed, Angela was the first to celebrate with us and welcome us to our new home! We couldn't have asked for a more wonderful realtor. Thank you so much for everything, Angela! read more

Very easy sale of an inherited house. Angela took care of ALL aspects of the sale. I highly recommend her services.

If you're looking for a wonderfully easy rental experience, I strongly encourage everyone to work with Angela and Kelly. I rented a home for 2.5 years and loved every minute of it. Working with Angela and Kelly was extremely easy; they were easy to reach regarding any issues at the home (which were almost none), and were very flexible and understanding during the move in/move out process. I have never had property managers as communicative and accessible as them. Strongly recommend! read more

I was a tenant for two years, renting a property managed by Silicon Valley Heights. We really enjoyed our time there, Angela and Kelly were very helpful and very responsive whenever we had an issue at the unit. read more

Angela came highly recommended by our close friends - so the selection process for a fantastic real estate agent was made simple. She was our selling agent for both our 1 bedroom condo & the buying agent for our 3 bedroom townhouse. She was a consummate, friendly, and lovely professional from start to finish. She made the whole process of selling our house (staging, cleaning, moving, renovations, market listing analytics) and buying (searching, market sales analytics, historical information on the home, offer ball park estimations) very seamless. She is also a hub of information and referrals for any home renovation or decoration you can think of! We are very happy with our experience with Angela and would definitely recommend her to all our friends/family or to any stranger perusing Yelp! read more

I cannot thank Angela enough for helping me navigate the 1031 exchange process. This was my first time going through the process (still am but I'm feeling really good about where I'm at, fingers crossed!) - I was so lost and nervous and Angela responded to me so quickly (she was an awesome referral!) - same day in fact and answered my questions in a clear and concise way. A lot of people say they understand the 1031 process and they really don't! Trust me, I've talked to a lot of them. I will be referring her moving forward. Thank you Angela! Hope to work with you again soon. read more

First of all, we would like to express our gratitude for the successful sale of our home, that we entrusted to Angela. Indeed, we just closed the sale, and everything went perfectly. The whole experience exceeded our expectations! Angela puts a lot of energy into her work and she perfectly knows the Santa Clara market, but she is also able to properly analyze the market and take the necessary initiatives to help you make the right decision. She was also able to recommend us what housework and tasks were needed to make the premises more attractive. As she is always available and punctual, she is also concerned about the job being well done and executes it meticulously. With her team at Silicon Valley Heights, she assisted us with the inspections, repairs, cleaning, and getting the house prepared for the sale, and took care of finding the right person to do the standing of the house. She was able to identify the most crucial selling points to advertise our house. Therefore, we strongly recommend Angela, she is the professional, honest and dynamic person that will find the best way to sell your house. read more

Angela Tu - Silicon Valley Heights - Real Estate Agents Near Me - Mountain View, California

This is just to remark on our initial consultation with Angela. First off, Angela is just a lovely person to speak with. We felt at ease speaking with her regarding our first home buying questions. She has an incredible array of skills and tons of experience to back it all up. She focuses one-on-one with her buyers during the whole process. We were impressed that many of her clients keep going back to her, especially to work on investment properties - that's a clear sign she is great to work with. I highly recommend folks to speak with her particularly if you plan to go through multiple properties in your lifetime so having one person to manage all of your property needs in the future just makes sense - she covers the whole gamut. read more

I'm very pleased to write this review for Angela Tu of Silicon Valley Heights. We recently closed on a property in the Lamorinda area that Angela helped us purchase. We were first introduced to Angela through a common friend and decided to speak with her to discuss our needs. Angela was very patient with us and shared some information and stats about the neighborhoods we were wanted to look at and we shared some ideas on houses we liked from Redfin. Angela immediately did some research on the places and reverted to us with detailed info on each place and her recommendation on whether to look at them or pass. Angela also recommended we get our pre-approval done with the bank and so we completed that before connecting back with her to begin visiting houses. We visited several houses on the weekend and Angela gave us her frank and honest perspective on costs and maintenance associated with some places we were interested in which were awesome houses, but wouldn't really work for our family. There was one house we did like which met our needs but needed a little work, and we decided to make an offer. We wanted to move quickly before the winter season ended as we suspected that there would be more buyers on the market when spring came around, so we worked with her over the weekend to put in an offer. Angela did some research and worked with us on what she thought would be a fair price that the sellers would accept given the circumstances and background that she learned about the house. She also worked with us through the contingencies and other factors we tweaked in the offer to give us the best chance of acceptance. Moving quickly really made the difference and the sellers accepted our offer. Once we were in contract we learned that the house had a septic tank which was something not clearly stated on the house documents. We were a little concerned as its not something we've dealt with, but that's when we were really glad we had Angela. She made a lot of calls, got several specialists to take a look, and got multiple quotes and estimates in a very short period. She also worked closely with the seller's agent to express our discomfort with the septic situation. Using the information and costs gathered, she then helped us make a counter offer to the sellers. The sellers accepted and we then worked through escrow to on the house! Our home search and close was brief but extremely intense. Through it all, Angela has been very available over phone and text and was very responsive to our requests and questions. Given our tight timeline (25 day close) and the fact that we really liked the house, she made sure we had all the information we needed to have at every point and didn't try to steer us one way or the other. We feel fortunate that we were able to move through the entire process quickly and grateful that we had Angela working with us guiding us through it all. Thank you Angela! read more

We highly recommend Angela! She is smart, knows the market (esp. the Lafayette area where we were looking), is easy to work with, and is very responsive. We would work with her again in a heartbeat. read more

With Angela as my buyer's agent, purchasing a house was the best and most seamless experience I could have imagined. I've heard so many horror stories of prospective buyers spending months writing offer after offer, but within one week of meeting Angela, I had my offer accepted. Angela's knowledge of the Cupertino, Sunnyvale, and Mountain View market, her extensive real estate experience, and her highly effective communication style made this fast turnaround possible. When touring properties, Angela helped me spend my time efficiently, helping me filter out properties that had deal-breaking flaws (some of which she knew because she had sold and/or managed properties in the same communities), while quickly scheduling tours to visit the most promising properties. She reviewed disclosures and quickly estimated the cost impact of potential home repairs. She connected me with lenders who were equally awesome with fantastic rates, which made closing a breeze. She also provided both data and market intuition-backed advice that proved to be an accurate and winning offer strategy for my dream home! I was not sure how to recognize a "good" real estate agent before I met Angela. Now, I can say that working with a great real estate agent like Angela makes a huge difference to your stress level, confidence, likelihood of success, and happiness when buying a home! Highly recommended. read more

I needed to rent out my property in the Bay Area and have no experience in leases or tenants so I need a professional. I found Angela and she delivered beyond my expectations. The initial meeting was straight forward. She came over to view the property to give me a current market valuation along with potential market valuation should I improve the property. Once the property was ready for marketing that's where her skills really showed. She has the ability to screen tenants for the right fit for my goals. She put my priorities first and found me highly vetted tenants that allows me to rest easy knowing my largest asset is in good hands. I would hire Angela to manage all my rental properties! read more

Angela did a very thorough and professional job of staging my house, photographing it and advertising it to find suitable renters, advised me on what to put in the contract and then drafted it and had it signed by the renters in a timely fashion. She handled a broken drainage pipe situation very efficiently and quickly with the least amount of downtime, all while I was living out of state. She is also very easy to work with. I am glad I used her services and I would highly recommend her. read more

As first time home buyers, Angela provided the guidance we needed at every step. This includes finding the type of house and finding a comfortable budget to work with, all the way through to assisting us while we assign our documents. We are grateful for her guidance and expertise during the process. I would recommend her as the go to person to do any of your real estate needs. She also has a great network of resources to help you through the purchasing process and after. read more

We had the best experience possible: getting the contract and signing was done super fast ( was important for us), and every request or issue is getting resolved quickly to our satisfaction. Great having Angela as our property manager ! read more

Angela has helped my husband and I close properties both as the selling and buying agent. She has been great at both but I will focus this review for her as my buying agent. Overall, Angela has made the buying process very easy for us. She has closed the properties at the price we want. That means not having to pay few hundred thousand above asking :) The post buying process has also been great. She has helped us getting house rehabbed quickly (getting us painters and cleaners). She has been an awesome agent and hopefully we will do more deals with her in the future! read more

Angela has managed our property for us for over three years now, and she does an extraordinary job. She manages all the tenant relationship and interactions, and has found us outstanding tenants. We feel safe knowing that our property is managed by an awesome professional! read more

Angela is an awesome agent, completely knowlegable, personable, hard working, dedicated and delivers results. Angela was referred to me by a friend and I am extremely grateful to her in helping me successfully purchase my first home! Angela helped me start looking for a property in July 2009. I was a first time home buyer so I was obviously not very knowlegable and had lots of questions. Throughout the whole process, Angela was extremely patient and helpful, answering all the questions I had. I closed on my first home in April 2010 and am extremely happy with it! The long time frame between looking and closing, was no fault of Angela's. I was purchasing a foreclosed home (which already speaks great things of Angela that she took me on as a client because a lot of agents steer clear of foreclosures due to complications that can arise) which made me a particularly difficult case, but Angela handled the whole thing as professionally as one could. She was pushing the banks (usually the ones holding up foreclosures) and checked in with me regularly, she really makes you feel like she is on your side, working with you to get you the best deal you possibly can, and making your dollar go further. Angela was very responsive. Whenever i called her, she would pick up, and if she couldn't she usually calls back straight away. She was hard working - no matter how many different homes i wanted to see, she would make sure i got to see them all. To make things even more difficult, my loan situation was complicated because i am in the US on a Visa, but since Angela is not only knowlegable in real estate, but also in loans management, she gave me invaluable advice in this area too. She is a complete all rounder, dedicated, friendly, smart and hard working real estate agent, who i would highly recommend to anyone looking to buy a place in the bay area. read more

Angela is a hard working professional who knows her stuff. She will guide you to the home of your dreams!

Buying our first home was a scary process and Angela was there for us every step of the way. There were times when she spent countless hours with us on the phone, or meeting with us in person to help calm our nerves in this extremely competitive housing market. Angela has a long list of clients, but she always made us feel like we were the most important one. She was even there for our final walk though, with blue tap in hand. Angela is amazing and if I can give her 10 stars, I would!!!! I would definitely recommend her to anyone!!! read more

Angela managed our rental property in the South Bay. From the start, she was super easy to work with. We were busy with moving out of the state so she basically took care of everything to get the property ready for listing - from arranging contractors for repairs/touchup to photoshooting. Everything was done in a timely manner. What I like about her is she is not pushy at all and for things I don't have opinions on, she can also be very decisive. She is patient and always available and will explain in details every time when a decision needs to be made. I feel very lucky to have Angela as our property manager! read more

My wife and I have been a real estate client of Angela's for several years now for several simple reasons: 1) Service 2) Experience 3) Professionalism She's met our real estate needs in every way by providing responsive service and constant updates with regard to the transaction at hand. I've dealt with many real estate agents in the past from all over the Bay Area and the level of service Angela provides is unmatched. Her expert guidance with each and every step has provided me the confidence and peace of mind that we are making the right decision. I rely heavily on the sound strategies she recommends throughout the transaction. Lastly, Angela is a true professional as she always comes through with her stated commitments. Her demeanor is always on the professional yet friendly level. She is truly a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend her for your real estate needs as she'll surely "win" you over as well! Regards, Robert Gee-Kee read more

Angela is awesome! I second a lot of the positive reviews already made here. She's professional, friendly, and easy to work with. I was referred to her by a friend to help my father with a 1031 exchange. She was super patient with us and always available (everyday practically all day!) to answer our very many questions as this was our first exchange. She already had several referrals to 1031 exchange companies for us to choose from. When we looked at potential properties, she helped us analyze pros and cons of different properties and organized several site visits to new constructions. I'd definitely work with Angela again and recommend her services :) read more

"Angela Tu is an indispensable for all types of property deals. She possesses the required expertise and skills for smooth execution of the transaction. She knows how to facilitate the sale and purchase process between the buyer and the seller. In 2010, Angela closed 4 purchase transactions for my family, and a couple more transactions in process to be closed soon. Everyone whom had used Angela services before spoke highly of her and would use her again for future transactions. Angela also manage properties, so she understands the rental market, the landlord and tenant regulations. I turned to her for help when I have questions about the real estate, she completely earned my trust in real estate investment. "Angela is charming, intuitive, and personable, with a passion for her business, and savvy for marketing. Any agency would be lucky to have her on their team, as she dedicates her attention toward reaching goals, and in the end is always a successful transaction." read more

We just purchased our first home, and Angela was our realtor. She was awesome across the board. We were very nervous about buying our first home. Angela was extremely patient and helpful with our never ending questions. We looked at a ton of homes all throughout peninsula - San Bruno, Millbrae, San Mateo, Foster City, Redwood Shore, etc. Finally we found a great place in Foster City. She is very responsible and reliable. Although our case was not one of those typical easy transactions, she made every effort to make sure things were being done properly, and that escrow and the loan officer had everything they needed for closing. Finally, our transaction went through, and we are waiting to move into our new home soon! I don't think we could have done it without her help. Thank you, Angela! I would recommend Angela to anyone. With her professional attitude and ethics, I'm sure she would be a great sellers' agent too. read more

Angela truly is incredible. You will not be disappointed if you bring her on to help with your real estate needs. And truly, she will be an extraordinary real estate agent for you. Summary (in case people don't want to read the whole review): Strengths:- Professional, Courteous, Knowledgeable, Honest, Interested in your Needs, Great person to drive results Weaknesses:- None that I'm aware of. Conclusion:- She has set my bar on what I expect real estate agents to deliver. To give people an idea of my experience with real estate agents, I've gone through two agents in the past and purchased with one of them. For my current house, I interviewed 4 real estate agents before landing on Angela. Every other agent I interviewed had something missing, i.e.: proactive but too aggressive, relaxed but won't get anything done, highly recommended but poor communication skills and lastly too busy. During my interview with Angela, she made it a point to ask me what I didn't like about the other agents and explained to me her style. She was incredibly professional, courteous, proactive and she knew just when to urge me to get something done. She understands that many of us are working long hours and sometimes can't get to something right away, but will make sure you know the deadlines so you can get it done. Absolutely professional! To explain how good she is at handling situations, I thought I knew the market well enough to jump right into looking for houses. During the first few houses we visited, Angela sensed right away how unknowledgeable I was about houses but did not bring it up to my attention. Rather than saying it outright, Angela explained certain things about the house and made me feel like we were working together. Angela gave me the chance to learn about something I didn't know and realize how unready I was so I could prepare myself to be ready without making it feel like I didn't know anything! That's truly amazing personal skills! This same style of personality was applied to everything else she touched, from organizing your tours, to working with the loan agent she recommended, to handling "trouble" agents, to working behind the scenes on any documents and finally (and most importantly) her true and HONEST feedback on homes and prices. I really can't stress this enough. Angela suggested that I offer lower than the listed price of a home. She did this in a market where other homes in the same area were being bid $150K over the asking. Other agents I've had made me feel like they're making a commission; Angela really makes me feel like we're on the same team. Truly, if you're looking for someone really knowledgeable, professional, honest and interested in hearing what your needs are, Angela is your agent. She has set the bar in terms of what I expect from real estate agents. read more

My wife and I had an outstanding experience working with Angela to find a home in the Silicon Valley. Angela is very knowledgeable, smart, patient, and thoughtful. She gave us an overview of the market, gave us good recommendations on what was realistic for our needs and budget, and answered any of our tough or nitpicky questions clearly and thoroughly. She was very knowledgeable on things we should watch out for that we wouldn't have picked up on our own (like if a school in a particular area was impacted). Angela was very patient with us, especially given that we shopped for such a long time and were hard to commit. She always had a great attitude and diligently searched for great candidates. I would highly recommend anyone to work with Angela. read more

Angela sold our condo for us and we could not be happier. We got more than the asking price and the unit was on the market for only two days. She kept us informed every step of the way and listened to our concerns. We were particularly impressed with how she staged the condo. She is ideal to have as a property manager and/or realtor. read more

I purchased my first home at milpitas in 2010 with Angela's help, she provided me with sound advice and helpfull insight about the local real estate market. Her advice aided me in selecting and purchasing my first home. Angela is also an excellent real estate manager, with my investment house, there was little to nothing that I had to do since she takes care of whats needed to keep my investment property running smoothly. Recently I had just sold my first home at milpitas, again I turned to Angela for sound advice and her insight on the current market conditions, consulting when would be the best time for me to intiate a real estate sale. Her advice was spot on and her ability to get things done is bar none. There is a caveat to my recent real estate transcation, I am physicaly 11,000 miles away in Asia. Angela went above and beyond, from storing my belongings, to preping my home and orchestrating the different elements to finally closing the sale, perhaps in record time given my location. She is an excellent partner to have in your Real Estate transactions. detailed oriented and result oriented, very accomodating to her clients needs. With this review I recommend Angela Tu as your trusted and reliable partner in your Real Estate Transactions. Thank you Angela !!! read more

Angela is a fantastic real estate agent and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell in the Bay Area. Her best quality is that she understands people, not just her clients, but also other agents and buyers/sellers you are negotiating with. She knows that you must go above and beyond what every other real estate agent does to be successful and that is exactly what she does. She is knowledgeable, creative and extremely personable. She recently helped us sell our old house and buy our new one. Both deals were done within 1 month of each other and we were very pleased with the work, process, and results. She turned a complicated situation into a series of smooth and successful real estate transactions. Her great instinct and hard work need to be credited. For example, when we bought our home, she knew the market and popularity of the home based on how the open houses went. When we were trying to figure out how much to offer so that we weren't over-paying, but wanted to be in the running, she nailed the right offer amount. Any less and we wouldn't have gotten the house and any more and we would have overpaid. Putting together an offer (not just $, but also terms) is a skill that requires you to really know the buyer and seller to create the most attractive package, and she is great at it. She also is well connected with high quality and affordable vendors to help get your house ready for sale. Angela also saved us money by taking professional quality photographs of our house (herself) and created the best-looking real estate flyer i have ever seen. All in all, Angela is superior in every way when it comes to a real estate agent that you can trust and that will get the job done for you. read more

It started out great. Angela was very responsive and sounded knowledgale. But after a couple of weeks, she stopped picking up the phone and never reponded to our voice mials. We don't know what we did wrong. Maybe she decided we were not worth her time.(If you don't want to work with us, please just simply let us know so we don't waste our time on you.) I will still give her a two-star though just for the work she did at the beginning. Readers beware. Choose your realtor wisely. Don't made the same mistake I did: base my judgment on 3 reviews. read more

While buying our first home, we couldn't have expected any better service !! There were a lot of moments during our first home purchase when we were AMAZED by the kind of service Angela provides. She not only guided us on each step of the purchase, but helped us work with our new home HOA even after the purchase completion. She thoroughly knows what she's doing and is extremely professional. She's very honest and would provide a sincere advise always and never rushes things. Above all, she's very organized and punctual -- not sure how she managed to be there before us always :). It was easy to work with her as she uses technology a lot (DocuSign, iMessage, DropBox ...). I did not know her before she was referred to me by my lender, now after working with her -- I can confidently recommend her to anyone. read more

Angela is great when it comes to dealing with your needs and wants with purchasing a new house. I always refer Angela with those close to me because I trust that she will take care of them. All of them have said that she's been wonderful and a joy to work with. The reason why I choose her over other real estate agents I know is because she's patient, professional, and knowledgeable. I have personally experienced a walk through with her and found it to be thorough, where she is eager to answer any questions/concerns you may have. She has a wide array of resources that she can point you to for things outside of real estate itself, such as contractors, tax consultants, mortgage lenders, etc. read more

Angela is an absolute pleasure to work with. From the beginning, she has made each step in the rental process a positive experience. As our property manager, she is consistently responsive and prompt at resolving issues. She is both professional and easy to work with. Above all, she always acts with the long-term interest of the property in mind. We have never had a better experience with a property manager. We would strongly recommend her and look forward to continuing to work with her in the future. read more

After couple of years of house hunting, i found angela through a friend and i must say the experience was very delightful and pleasant. She helped me identify the right home for me and was very patient with my dilemmas and confusions as first time buyer. Bought my first home in august 2015 and the post purchase questions and help had also been so good. Thanks angela for being a great real estate agent. read more
