We were looking to buy a single family home in the SF Bay Area for our daughter and husband to rent…read morefrom us. We did an internet search and came across Birnbaum Realty in Benicia, CA. Rachel Birnbaum was the Owner/Broker. She had a number of very good reviews so we called her and spoke for quite a while about what we were looking for and our budget. From the first call, she started working to find us just the right house. Quickly, she came up with a number of options. She actually videotaped homes she previewed which made things easier for us to choose which ones we wanted to visit and further evaluate. In all of our dealings with Rachel, she was always on top of things, keeping in touch on a regular basis and updating any new listings. We eventually expanded our search to include other cities in the East Bay Area. Prior to making our first trip up North, she would give us the pros and cons of each house, and the back story of the cities. She is both an excellent Real Estate Professional, and easy person to work with. We found a house in Brentwood, CA, made an offer which was accepted after some back/forth negotiation. She handled the escrow process flawlessly and the sale went through without a hitch. Rachel gets an A+ from us for the help she provided, including her knowledge of real estate and her mild easy manner. A win-win transaction, so happy we had Rachel on our side. Another quick addition, Rachel is married to a General Contractor, Ron Bruno. Ron actually did the renovation work that was necessary with the Brentwood house. His work and the subs he hired were also excellent. The work was completed on time and within budget. They are truly a great pair to work with from start to finish.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Suzanne Ashimine, a top Sonoma Valley Realtor, on a…read moretransaction where I was the listing agent and Suzanne represented the buyer. From start to finish, Suzanne made the process easy and enjoyable. She was well-organized, highly communicative, and a true professional, which made for a smooth and successful closing. Suzanne's knowledge of the Sonoma Valley real estate market and her ability to advocate for her buyers really stood out. She approaches each step with integrity and a positive spirit, which not only benefits her clients but also makes her a wonderful agent to collaborate with. I would be delighted to work with Suzanne again on future transactions--whether she is representing buyers or sellers. Sonoma Valley is fortunate to have an agent like Suzanne who brings professionalism, care, and expertise to every deal."

We loved working with Suzanne. She was recommended by a…read moremutual friend who used her as their real estate agent, and it could not have worked out better. We are new to Sonoma, and Suzanne's knowledge of the intricacies of Sonoma's real estate market was so helpful. She is very responsive and answers her texts and emails right away. She took the time to understand what we were looking for and identified properties that matched our criteria. She then effortlessly guided us through the process of buying our house. She and her team make the details easy. She thoughtfully explains each of the inspections and identifies what is important for followup. She arranges any followup inspections that are needed. Her knowledge in this area was particularly helpful as we are not from Sonoma. She is an asset in the negotiating process, her advice was crucial when we found ourselves in a multiple bid situation, other agents like working with her, and we can safely say we would not have our home in Sonoma if Suzanne had not been our agent. Suzanne is the real estate agent whose advice you can trust completely. We would definitely choose her again!

From our very first conversation, I remember that phone call like it was yesterday. In that moment,…read moresomething in my heart told me this journey was going to be different. You didn't just guide a transaction -- you carried a vision with strength, integrity, and unwavering professionalism. When I felt nervous, you brought peace and clarity. When I needed space, you gave it with grace. And when it was time to stand strong, you stepped forward with confidence, wisdom, and strategy. And when I needed a hug, you were always there. You listened beyond the surface. You protected the process. You advocated when it mattered most. Every "what if," every question, every delay, every moment of uncertainty -- you handled it with excellence, patience, and heart. This was never just about receiving the keys. It was about trust. It was about leadership. It was about the way you showed up every single time when it mattered most. Many people said, "You need to do this... you need to do that." But you, Ms. J, said something different: "We will do this." And that changed everything. You didn't just make this happen -- you believed in the dream, you stood in the gap, and you helped turn it into reality. I bless you, and I am forever grateful for you. Thank you for being the kind of person who turns dreams into reality and never lets someone walk the journey alone.
