I had spoken with a few other agents beforehand who didn't seem very enthusiastic, but Michael and Aaron came in with energy, preparation, and a clear strategy.

Even better, they helped coordinate the work and got everything done quickly, within budget, and exactly as promised. I also worked with them to purchase another property outside the city, and that experience was just as smooth. Professional, responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable throughout the process. I'd absolutely recommend Michael and Aaron if you're buying or selling in the Bay Area.

She was very on point with getting things done in a timely manner. She is extremely reliable. We had some unique hiccups during escrow regarding a third party. Venus was always there to be supportive and helped push on through some stressful times. She is someone you want on your side if things go bad. I would recommend her to everyone and will be coming back to her again in the future.

Cheryl Villanueva is TRULY a gem of a Realtor. We started our home-buying journey on June and we closed on our forever home in August! We couldn't have been happier to have Cheryl with us! Cheryl is such an extremely professional, efficient, and dedicated person who truly makes her clients feel like their home-buying journey is 100% important to her. While I'm sure that Cheryl has many clients and tasks that she tackles everyday, never once did we ever feel like we needed to be "fit" into her schedule. She responds to all emails and texts in such a timely manner, and always always answers your questions thoroughly and honestly. We appreciated Cheryl's true dedication to working her hardest on our behalf, even corresponding with our mortgage lender and others involved. Her ability to understand our concerns and convey them to all parties is really her biggest asset. She was compassionate about our concerns and we never had to question her ability to aid us through this process. As emotional as this journey was for us, Cheryl was always understanding and optimistic that we would find what we were looking for. We couldn't have done this without Cheryl by our side. Lastly, for those of you who are embarking on your home-buying journey during the age of COVID-19 - You can rest assure, Cheryl goes ABOVE AND BEYOND to make sure that her clients are healthy and safe.

We met when he showed me a property he was the listing agent for--I found him easy to talk to, no pressure. He made it clear that he is willing to work with clients to ensure they get what they're looking for, no matter how long that takes, which was refreshing. As it turned out, I loved the very next property he showed me, and Mike sprang into action. He took the time to patiently and diligently educate me about the process (and the paperwork!), yet moved quickly to engage with the listing agent, assess the situation, and formulate a great strategy for the presentation of my offer in a competitive situation--and I got the property! Throughout the escrow and lending process Mike was with me every step of the way, ensuring I understood the ins and outs and that I met all of my obligations, and guiding me in my decision making. It's clear Mike takes his obligations to his clients seriously and I was always confident that he had my best interests at heart. As a SF native Mike has a lot of expertise about the City in general and San Francisco real estate in particular--which was extremely valuable. I recommend Mike enthusiastically!

A friend referred me, after he & his wife bought a house in SF with Jamie, and loved her! Jamie…read moresold my Oakland loft in a tough market, in the time & at the price predicted. She generously went the extra mile & did so much behind the scenes that I'd only find out later, when a contractor or HOA board member mentioned something. I was out of state the entire listing/closing time. Jamie handled EVERYTHING on my behalf, remembering details that should've been my responsibility & that she executed without even asking. She made everything seamless! I've bought & sold 5 properties with 10 different realtors in 4 different states, and Jamie was hands down the best! Jamie's the most uniquely balanced human, with all the focus, drive & accomplishment of a Type A temperament, yet all the chill & ease of a Type B. And most notably, she's just a lovely, genuine human:)

Jamie came recommended to us by a friend who had recently worked with her to purchase a home that…read moremet the very specific needs of him and his partner. So we went in with high expectations to start with, which were immediately exceeded. Given our budget, Jamie helped us narrow down the list of contenders to those that were realistically attainable, and helped us understand what different list prices meant in different situations. That list of contenders helped us understand what items from our list we'd have to give up to stay in budget. We knew that whatever we purchased, we wanted to be our forever home. So from there, we were able to adjust our budget to account for the various tax implications so that we could stretch our budget but still be really confident that we weren't making a decision we would regret. Once we updated our budget, Jamie immediately came back with more options that checked more of our boxes and realistically fit in our price range, and we found one we wanted to put an offer on! Not content with simply getting us to the table, Jamie spent hours of her time visiting the home with us, inspecting it inside and out, and calling in favors from her personal network to allow us to confidently come in with an aggressive offer without contingencies and with a rapid closing window. That offer took into account the house's overall condition as well as a few items Jamie noticed needed rectifying beyond the home's aesthetic condition. Those terms are what allowed us to win our home, with our offer having the same dollar amount as the next best one, but with more seller-favorable terms. We skipped over an entire bidding war and proceeded to escrow, where Jamie pulled out the stops to make sure there would be no issues with our appraisal, bringing in a painter to clean up some peeling paint that might've been problematic. Our appraisal ended up coming in just above our purchase price and right where Jamie said she expected it to. And the mortgage broker she recommended was able to close in 21 days--including Thanksgiving. Her understanding of the neighborhood, the comps, the process, and the incentives that would be attractive to a seller, as well as her contacts in the industry, allowed us to soar through the complex San Francisco home-buying process without a snag. We don't ever plan to sell our home, but if we were to, we know who we'd want to help us with that process.

When I was selling the house (a duplex) Dennis did an amazing job staging it and it sold for an excellent price very rapidly.

There were other unusual circumstances that made life difficult and Dennis was much more than a real estate agent in the compassion he demonstrated and the help he gave me.

I could immediately see their attention to detail and tell that they cared first and foremost about me. What makes them stand out is their complementary skill sets. Design and renovation -- Charles. Contracts and disclosures -- Sabrina. There's tons of overlap here, of course, so I'm doing both some disservice. But I always knew whom to go to for what and that there would be no loose ends. Beyond the results, which were way more than I expected, I really had fun working with Charles and Sabrina.

Sabrina is a person with incredible integrity. Even when representing me, as the seller, she pushed me hard to write out every nit and wart about the place I was selling. Does that window slide funny? Do you hear the neighbor's footsteps upstarirs? She works with a partner Charles, who is the get-it-done type of guy. It's the most perfect combination that I can imagine. Charles is a guy from brooklyn that gets things done. We got the place cleaned up amazingly before selling.
