I worked with Bryan to sell my home, and he was incredible from start to finish. Rather than simply saying "Bryan was great" (which he absolutely was), I want to share a few specific examples that stood out: * I submitted an inquiry through his website at 5:00 PM right before a holiday. He responded almost immediately to acknowledge my request and asked whether I preferred to talk right away, or after the holiday. We ended up scheduling an in-person meeting during that first call. * Because my home was on the lower end of the Bay Area price range, I was concerned it might not receive the same level of attention. Bryan proved that concern wrong -- he provided true white-glove service throughout the entire process. * He came to our first meeting fully prepared with a detailed market analysis and a clear, thoughtful strategy. This included timing, making the home presentable, recommendations on work to do/not do, and pricing. * Bryan handled all staging, photography, and listing arrangements, making the process extremely hands-off and stress-free for me. * I had scheduled a final bulk trash pickup with Waste Management, and they canceled without notifying me. Bryan's team caught the issue because they had proactively called to confirm the appointment, and they immediately let me know. * During the listing period, his team also helped coordinate a minor issue and offered to arrange services for it to be resolved. * In less than a week, we received a cash offer $30K over asking and a financed offer $55K over asking. * During negotiations, Bryan clearly explained the potential risks and benefits of each action, making sure I fully understood what could go right -- and what could go wrong. I really appreciated how seriously he took his responsibility to keep me informed. I highly recommend Bryan to anyone looking to sell their home. read more

We had a fantastic experience working with Bryan on our recent townhouse sale. He is an expert partner and realtor who streamlined everything from staging and cleaning to minor repairs. His communication is second to none--we never had to wonder where we stood thanks to his detailed weekly updates and market analysis. Bryan is professional, reliable, and a true pleasure to work with. We couldn't have asked for a better partner in this sale. read more

I can't say enough great things about working with Bryan! From start to finish, he demonstrated outstanding professionalism, honesty, and integrity, and he truly went above and beyond to get the job done efficiently. He kept me informed every step of the way, offered encouragement and reassurance based on his experience, and always maintained a positive, upbeat attitude. Bryan is incredibly accessible, easy to communicate with, and clearly puts his heart into his work--it genuinely shows. He was an absolute pleasure to work with, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dedicated, trustworthy, and hardworking realtor. He really came through, we got the place sold quickly and we are very happy ! read more

Bryan was instrumental in selling my Fremont condo in a soft market. He came in with a plan and was there every step of the way. We were able to discuss every aspect of the prep and sale, with Bryan being willing to look as all sides of a decision. Rather than just agreeing with whatever I asked for, he'd give a fact and experienced based push back in the most rational and diplomatic way possible. We had some great discussions! When I needed contractors or services to prep the property, he was right there with recommendations that were far better than any I was able to find on my own. This is why, unless you are experienced at real estate and have a pretty much sale ready property, the cost of a full service realtor was worth every penny. Bryan did so much that I was able to go hands off and know everything was done and done right. It was a pleasure and a learning experience. read more

Bryan is terrific. Incredibly responsive and patient with all of our (sometimes unreasonable) wishes/wants. He helped us along our 8 month journey to find the exact house that met our needs. Furthermore, his relationships within the industry allowed us to get in on our house before it hit the MLS. Bryan was never pushy and was perfectly understanding when we changed our mind about bidding on a house. He always made himself available to us for tours; couldn't say enough good things about Bryan. read more

From the first meeting we had with Bryan, we knew we have chosen the right realtor. We planned to move from Fremont, Ca. to San Diego, Ca. and needed to sell our house quickly at the right price. Bryan achieved both. He was able to sell our house at the desired target price, and found suitable buyer within 8 days. He is very professional, knowledgeable about the area and always stayed on top of all actions from listing to closing. We highly recommend Bryan for either selling your house or finding the right house for the buyers. We appreciate everything he has done for us. Mehdi Eslami read more

Before working with Bryan, I talked to a few other agents and I went to open houses with some of them but none of them satisfied my expectation. At the end, I had the pleasure of working with Bryan for my recent home purchase, and I can't recommend him highly enough! From the first time I talked to him, he was incredibly attentive, understanding my needs and preferences in detail. Bryan was always available to answer my questions, provide valuable insights, and guide me through every step of the process. He is knowledgeable of the market and he always respect your needs. What I appreciated most was his professionalism and genuine care. He went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable and confident in my decisions. So, if you're looking for a dedicated and skilled realtor agent, I would recommend Bryan. I'm so grateful for his support and expertise! read more

We have now sold 4 homes with Bryan as our realtor. Our most recent experience working together was a rental property we owned. We sat down and he gave us 2 options. Sell the home "as is" at X price, or do a little work and get 3-4X return on the cost of the remodel. We decided to do the latter. After 3 weeks, we were ready to go on market. He lined up everything seamlessly to where each day, as one person was leaving the home, the next person was showing up. The cleaners, then the stagers, then the inspectors, then the photographer, etc. Everything happened so quickly, I was waiting for a hiccup somewhere in the schedule, but it never came. Everything ran so smoothly. We were only on market for a few days, but that's all it took. We received a VERY aggressive offer that was higher than our expected target number. We already knew we were going to accept he offer, but Bryan thought we could squeeze a bit more out of the deal. He went back and negotiated for the buyers to take on certain closing costs that were typically paid for by the buyer! Who does that??I can't say enough about my experience over the years working with Bryan and his team. He has been consistent and on point each and every time. His ability to read the market and price property accurately is exceptional. With each transaction, he has given me a goal price for my home, and each time he's exceeded it. I have consistently referred him to my family and friends and many of them have left reviews for him here, as well. If you're looking for a real estate agent that is seasoned, honest, aggressive, and always puts his clients first... then CALL BRYAN! read more

I had the pleasure of working with Bryan again very recently on the purchase of my home and as always, he was exceptional. This turned out to be one of the most complicated purchases I have ever been through, through no fault of my own, or Bryan's, but he would not rest until solutions were found to any obstacle we encountered. I have no doubt in my mind if I had been working with any other agent this would have fallen through, but he got it done and I am here! He brings an abundance of knowledge and experience and i cannot recommend him enough. I am forever thankful and will no doubt work with Bryan again in the future. read more

Bryan was an incredible real estate agent to work with! He was very thorough in educating me from the first interview I had with him, and he was always honest and upfront with what was going on throughout the process of selling my home. He has a great balance of allowing me, the customer, to make the final decisions but also speaking up when he felt like I was making a poor choice. He always talked about the pros and cons of making a choice on either side of the spectrum, and did not try to use the "I know what I'm doing" card at any point in time. I would 100% recommend him if you'd like to sell your home read more

While we were searching for our first house in the bay area, one of my colleagues suggested Bryan. We are so very happy that he did! Bryan is the best agent that one can ask for. He is polite, knowledgeable, responsive and dedicated. He answered all of our queries in great details. We always got a prompt reply from Bryan, whether it was after hours, or the weekend. We toured a lot of houses with Bryan, at one point on a daily basis. Bryan was very patient with us. He would also give us an estimate of any renovation cost when we asked him. This really helped us get the broader picture. Bryan knows the bay area market really well. He uses data to determine what a competitive offer on a certain property would be. Therefore, he wrote an excellent offer for us that landed us our first house. Another thing that I must mention is the great network that Bryan has. We went with one of his suggested mortgage lenders who have us a really competitive rate. In short, we had a really great experience working with Bryan. I give him the highest recommendation. read more

If you need a Realtor look no further than Bryan Van Heusen! As first-time home sellers we had no idea what to expect, however the entire experience in selling our home was seamless. Bryan is highly knowledgable in the market, responsive, thoroughly explains the selling process, offers amazing communication, and recommended a skilled contractor to renovate our home. The staging was exceptional - we were in awe of how phenomenal our house looked when it listed. We received multiple offers on the house and Bryan's guidance during the offer process was reassuring. We are incredibly grateful for Bryan's guidance and support throughout the selling process. Bryan and his team went above and beyond for us, and I highly recommend his services. You're amazing Bryan! read more

I can happily recommend Bryan for anyone buying a house in the Bay Area.

Bryan was great to work with from day 1! He listed our house on a Monday, held an open house that weekend, we had 3 offers on Tuesday! He answered endless questions about all sorts of things, and his answers were accurate and timely. Bryan's team is amazing too -- Abraham did everything from minor repairs to hauling our trash away for us, and he did it really well. The staging was really impressive -- we almost didn't recognize the house afterwards. It looked like something out of Home & Gardens! Throughout the process Bryan was friendly, organized, and a true pleasure to work with. He helped us get the disclosure package ready and guided us through the various contracts we needed to Docusign. As a result, the closing went really smoothly and we couldn't be happier. My husband and I highly recommend Bryan & his team! read more

One year ago we were in the market to buy and sell our home. We used Yelp to find an agent and then interviewed them. We were very pleased to meet Byran. After our initial conversation over the phone, Bryan came to our home to do a walkthrough and tell us more about himself, his team and what the process would look like to buy and sell our home. After some time, we decided to put our house hunt/sell on pause due to personal reasons. Bryan respected our decision and was very professional and personal all at the same time. He gave us our space and ready to chat when we were ready again. Fast forward to the present - we decided to casually start house hunting and stumbled upon a "gem" to our opinion. Literally after we saw the house, we called Bryan (remember we haven't chatted in a year). He picked up and talked to us like we've been chatting all the time! He took full control from there and made the entire process so easy for us all the way through closing on that "gem". He answered every question we had, and if he didn't have an answer, he would find out for us. He shared things with us about the house that we didn't know about. He was upfront and transparent about all details. He is honest and trustworthy. He followed through on all the details he said he would. His emails to share info and docusign made things so easy for us to complete. He is organized, efficient, prompt and reliable! He made this entire experience as seamless as it could be from start to close! We highly recommend working with Bryan to buy a home! Look no further and work with Bryan and his team! Bryan, thank you, it's been a pleasure working with you! read more

In 2019, We bought our first home in Fremont with Bryan, and that experience was smooth and professional as ever been. He was very professional, knowledgeable, and reputable among agent community and that was hugely in our favor to find the correct home for us at that time. We chose Bryan as our buyer's agent again for our home that we bought in Dublin recently. Although it was very competitive market for Dublin, Bryan always treated us with respect and professionalism. He always asked for what we needed and provided very reasonable and crucial guidances throughout the whole process. Again, we are really thankful that we chose him as buyer's agent. read more

We had considered moving to Oregon for over a year. When my son's company gave the approval for him to move to Oregon, moving became a reality. Based upon the glowing reviews for Bryan we chose him to represent us in selling our Fremont home. Everything went as planned in spite of COVID19. We were unable to hold an open house because of the shelter-in-place order. Fortunately, the first couple that looked at our house gave us an offer. Bryan had a good relationship with the buyer's agent. Things went as smoothly as possible during unprecedented circumstances. Our house closed on time and we are now in Oregon. Bryan is extraordinarily responsive. I called him my realtor/therapist. He would let me rant which was very much needed and appreciated. Bryan has a team that operates as a well-oiled machine. Considering this stressful time, Bryan helped by keeping things on track, having open lines of communication and simply getting things done. If you are looking for a professional, capable, take-charge realtor, look no further. If Bryan could sell my home during the pandemic, he can sell your home anytime. read more

Bryan and his team are BY FAR the best in the business. When we first met Bryan, we were interviewing him amongst other agents. He was the last one was sat down with and the difference between him and the others was night and day. What I found to be most impressive about him (something I've never forgotten) was his track record on selling homes that other agents had before him, but for some reason, could not sell. We're not talking one or two, but he has an entire list of properties with the data showing his results. Anyone who sees this will quickly understand that he is obviously doing something very different. We ended up hiring him that night and that was the start to our business relationship. Since that initial transaction, we called on Bryan to buy a property, to help a coworker sell her place, to help sell our parents home, to help a friend buy, and probably a couple others as well that I can't think of. And all of this without hesitation! Sometimes you get nervous referring someone out to family and friends for fear they could be a bad referral. I have never had these concerns with Bryan. He is very transparent and practical. He will not tell you want you want to hear, but rather what the truth is, then show you the data to back it up. This is a lesson everyone in the real estate field should learn. If you've sold a few homes, you know what I'm talking about. Bryan has not disappointed. Coming from someone that has used him and his team on multiple occasions, and sent countless referrals to him, he has consistently provided 5 star service. read more

Working with Bryan was an eye opening experience as a first time seller. His professionalism and flexibility has set the standard for any future real estate agents that I work with. Not only did he take the time to educate me on the process, what to expect, and why to expect (backed with data), but he also took the time to answer my questions (fueled by my own curiosity) on the real estate market which had nothing to do with selling my house. I can tell that he has great passion for real estate and service. I would not hesitate to recommend Bryan as an agent. read more

This is a long pending review. I worked with Bryan and Paul who make a perfect team and helped me buy my first home. My experience with Paul and Bryan had been excellent.

It took apx 3 weeks from the day I was introduced to putting an offer that got accepted. read more

Bryan was amazing to work with. He came into my life during a very difficult time. I had just lost my brother to cancer and I needed a realtor to help me through the sale process. Bryan was very knowledgeable and understanding. He kept me informed throughout the process and we discussed the timing for listing his house. With the challenges brought on by the coronavirus, Bryan helped determine the timing of listing the house. Once on the market, the house sold in less than a week I would definitely recommend Bryan to anyone needing a realtor and will use him in the future. read more

A friend of mine recently sold her house and recommended Bryan to sell mine. My house had an offer within three days and 8 offers by 5 days. All way over asking.

I would highly recommend Bryan and I am extremely happy with my experience. read more

We were looking to buy a house in Bay Area and I must say we had the best buying experience, thanks to Bryan. He is so prompt with his responses, we never had to wait for over 5 mins! We had experiences with other agents too and had spoken to a couple of them - Bryan clearly stood out! He got us a great deal on mortgage through his lender that saved us $400 in monthly payments (this beat our pre-approvals from other lenders!). Bryan and his team, are all razor focused on outcomes and customer service. They also work with a great level of integrity. Never seen folks so committed to work. While we ran into some delays from seller on closing date, Bryan helped us through the process and also got us some freebies from the seller. We recommend working with Bryan to make your journey smooth. read more

Bryan Van Heusen- Realtor - Real Estate Agents Near Me - Fremont, California

Brian helped us sell our home in record time (I think it was in contract in about a week?). I had originally located him when looking to sell my mothers home in Fremont, and ended up using him to sell my home in Hayward. Brian was AMAZING. I think what I appreciated most was his transparency on expectations, given the market at the time.. and still sold for over asking price. Brian easily surpassed all of our expectations. He took care of everything- from inspections, photos, scheduling visits, open houses, staging.. the whole bit. He even helped us identify a handyman to do a few projects we never got to. He's professional, communicative, promptly responded to any questions we had, and always had a solution if something came up. I always felt confident in his abilities and knew he had our best interest at heart. I would recommend Brian to anyone looking to sell their home. He is absolutely fantastic. read more

Bryan and his team went above and beyond for us when we sold our home. Our roof had a leak that damaged our hardwood floors and ceiling. We had already arranged to move across the country and this would set us back by a couple of months while we managed the necessary repairs. Bryan stepped in arranged the contractor and completely oversaw all of the work that needed to be done allowing us to continue with our original moving plans. He kept us up to date on all of the repairs, on budget and also kept to our on market timeline. He even shipped our internet equipment back to our provider for us. How did he do in getting us a good price on our home? His hard work translated to a neighborhood price per square foot record and a great return on our original investment. Thanks Bryan! read more

We met with a few realtors & decided on Bryan Van Heusen, we knew by his presentation he was a true professional. We made the right call!

Willa was great throughout our entire buying process. We knew we were on a tight budget (as is anyone in this area) to get what we were looking for. We kicked off our relationship via a conference call walking through the process and expectations with both Willa and Bryan. It was obvious they were experienced, knowledgeable about the current market, and had a good idea of how it was trending. Most importantly they made it clear that it is difficult to close because it is a strong seller's market and outlined their tactics to increase our chances of closing before seeing any houses. From there on out Willa was our go-to for house visits and collecting information about the property. Willa had a very flexible schedule to meet with us on the weekends. She was also quickly responsive with communications. She routinely checked to see if we could get inspection reports prior to visiting so we didn't waste time driving around if there were more issues than we could fix. We visited around 50 houses in ~4 months. We thought we could only afford a palace in Newark when we really wanted to be in Fremont. To our surprise, we found a perfect home for us in Fremont in a great location and school due to the expectations given in our first meeting we put in a competitive offer. We actually put in the same bid as another couple, but our offer's structure and Willa being able to tell our family's story ended up getting the seller to accept our offer. From there on out Willa worked tirelessly to until we had the keys in our hand. I recommend Willa and team because they will give you the information to be successful in a tough market. I strongly suggest you listen to their advice - especially on how to put together your offer. read more

As first time home buyers, we feel so lucky that we had Bryan to help us to purchase our first home. With his help, it us only took 1.5 month to get our dream house. (including loan pre-approval, house seeing and closing) At the very beginning, We had no idea where to start with. So following some suggestions, we decided to hire a buyer agent. We found Bryan on Yelp and called him immediately. He quickly setup an appointment with us at the same day. Kindly explained the home purchase process in details and setup email notification for all new home coming up to market daily. He did all of these without even ask us to sign any exclusive contract. With his help, we got pre-approval from some lenders within the next couple days. And we decided to start seeing. Doubtless, Bryan did a great job on this too. All we did was simply told him which houses we want to have a look, and he will come up with a great schedule for you. Bryan or Jesse always make themselves available to accompany us for open house visiting and give advices at the same time. Lucky, we found two nice houses in our first weekend-house-hunting tour and decided to write offers. They provided us a report of compared prices of similar properties before offer deadline. This ensure that we can offer a good price to get the offer accepted as well as not putting a unreasonable high price. Fortunately, our second offer got accepted and this house actually is our favorite :) Inspection was nice and smooth. Bryan went over reports with us in details. And we all feel good to continue with this house. We found our first lender(U.S Bank) because it has the lowest rate at that time. Appraisal came up with a lower price and Bryan quickly helped us negotiate with the seller and lower the price. The loan process didn't went that well. Our loan got declined 5 days after the expected closing day with a ridiculous reason. Thanks to Bryan, he efficiently came up with solutions for us and communicate well with listing agent. Finally we got our second loan approved in 10 regular days. And closed three days after it. Happy ending! In additional, I highly recommend Bryan's team for these reason also: 1. He's always on time for his appointment. Very patient to explain any details. Always answer your phone if his available or call you back if he miss the call. 2. He try his best to protect his clients. Try to suggest every offer a reasonable price instead of asking you to bid as high as possible. 3. When emergency happens, he does his best to calm you down and give effective solutions at the same time. 4. Communication skill with seller is really good. In short, if you need an experienced and professional agent to guide you through. Bryan's team is absolute your first choice. I will definitely refer Bryan to my friends and family for home purchasing in the future. read more
