Professional and Reliable Property Management I have been…read moreworking with The Cal Agents since 2025 to manage my house rental in the Bay Area, and it has been a consistently positive experience. Key Highlights: 1. Exceptional Team: I've had the pleasure of working with Wilsen, Ahyeza, Chris, Patricia, Jana, Fiona, Nikki, and Ramiro. They are professional, attentive, and easy to collaborate with. 2. Problem Solvers: One of their greatest strengths is that they never shy away from a hard problem. Whether it's a maintenance issue or a tenant concern, they tackle it head-on with a level of responsiveness that is hard to find. 3. Trusted Partnership: When you are looking for a partner to manage an investment property, creating an empathetic and caring relationship with the tenants is the most important factor. They have proven themselves to be reliable stewards of my property. Pro-Tip for Owners: Because they manage a diverse portfolio of both condos and houses, I found that providing clear context on my specific expectations for house-level marketing and maintenance from the start created a great feedback loop. Their receptiveness to this high level of communication is exactly why our partnership works so well; it ensures everyone is aligned from day one. Overall: If you need a team that is responsive and capable of handling the complexities of the Bay Area rental market, I highly recommend The Cal Agents.

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.

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.

We are homeowners already and will be renting our current home and to be treated this way without any value of my time or effort to get me a viewing has open my eyes to considered who and which company I choose to represent my home.

Sarah is a ride-or-die, absolute rockstar of a realtor. During our year and a half of searching for…read morea home, Sarah spent hours upon hours with us visiting houses, scrutinizing them closely, guiding us through disclosures, and strategizing on offers. Her generosity with her time and expertise, responsiveness, and communication are second to none. She never pushed us and checked in consistently about what we felt comfortable with, and when we agonized over decisions or chose not to offer, she was always unbelievably patient and supportive. She jumped on multiple last minute offers for us with total grace and professionalism. Her structural knowledge and expertise was the most amazing asset and she built deep trust by giving it to us straight when a house's issues were profound and concerning. She proved time and time again to us that she was genuinely invested in helping us find the right home, whatever it took, telling us multiple times she was in it with us for the long haul. We had life conversations in the crawl space under houses, experienced the worst attic she had ever been in, and frankly just enjoyed hanging out with her as a great human. She is not afraid to get her hands dirty, and goes so far above and beyond for her clients, it's astounding. When we finally found a home, it was one she sent us which we had overlooked but because of her network and relationships, we were able to jump on an opportunity quickly and make a winning offer. Thanks to her we had exact clarity on the work needed and expected costs. And she continued to support us through escrow and after closing, answering every question, strategizing about repairs, and sharing her invaluable list of trusted local contacts, smoothing the way at every stage. She is deeply embedded in the East Bay real estate community which is critical in such a tough and small market - relationships really matter. We also got to work with her daughter Ellie a few times, who is just as wonderful. They are truly the dream team. We are so grateful to work with and know Sarah, and cannot recommend her highly enough.

When my husband and his siblings needed to sell their parents' home after 58 years of family ownership, we knew we needed someone exceptional. Sarah Ridge exceeded every expectation. Not only is Sarah an expert in the Berkeley and El Cerrito market, but she also brought together an outstanding team that made the entire process seamless. From strategic pricing and marketing to thoughtful updates, staging, and preparation, every recommendation was spot-on and designed to maximize the home's appeal and value. What impressed me most was Sarah's ability to guide our family through what was an incredibly emotional transition. She was always available, communicated clearly, and patiently walked everyone through each step of the process. Her professionalism, compassion, and attention to detail gave us complete confidence from start to finish. Thanks to Sarah's market knowledge, strong negotiation skills, and excellent relationships with other agents, we received multiple offers and ultimately found the perfect buyer for this cherished family home. The entire experience could not have gone more smoothly. Sarah is constantly studying the market, touring new inventory, and maintaining strong relationships throughout the East Bay, giving her an unmatched pulse on the local real estate landscape. If you're buying or selling in Berkeley, El Cerrito, or the surrounding East Bay communities, I cannot recommend Sarah highly enough. You will be in exceptional hands. Simply put, I wouldn't choose anyone else for this area.

Roughly 7 years ago, we linked up with Rosie to help us purchase our first home, and she was so helpful along the way. As we slowly started to outgrow our first home, we worked with Rosie again for a new home last year, and she was so incredibly helpful and encouraging every step of the way. Throughout both times, she was always super responsive, made time to meet with us, and answered all of our questions throughout the home-buying process. We never felt any pressure from her to act on any of the houses we visited, and she always had a calm and relaxed demeanor that put us at ease. Rosie's recommendations & suggestions for insurance providers, lenders, or handy people were also great, and definitely helped us out in a pinch. Rosie made the homebuying process a relatively simple one, and we really couldn't have it without her help. She was really flexible with our schedule, super prompt when we had any last minute questions, and feels like a long-time friend at this point. Rosie provided us invaluable + realistic information around the comps for all the homes we visited, which ultimately helped us land an awesome new home. If you're looking to buy a home, we can't recommend Rosie enough. Thank you so much, Rosie!

The K&S property management team was great during my lease term by being prompt on repairs (broken door lock, roof leak, etc.).
