She is the epitome of poise, professionalism, likability, high EQ and high IQ and mostly, a genuine kind person. Extremely competent and meticulous. Hands down the best buyers realtor we've ever worked with. She found us our dream home, walked us through every step, recommended handy man, pool company, electrician, etc. She is like ChatGPT in human form. We absolutely adore Maichee. Second, Renee White was our selling agent. She is truly a boss lady! She knows real estate inside and out, and can probably sell just about anything. She's so charming and funny, yet so professional and "on top of her game" at the same time. Her entire team (Darlene, Michaela, Issac, etc) are all wonderful. They basically took charge of our house, made the necessary improvements, strategically got as much foot traffic as possible. Our house was sold very quickly to the perfect buyer.

A resident overheard my conversation and asked me if I had a realtor. I told her I didn't. She said she didn't want to impose but knows a realtor who both sold her a condo and helped her purchase another one. She gave me the name Drew Plaisted. She said he specializes in the Rossmoor community. I generally don't take a strangers suggestion without doing some research first. All my research led me to realize that he was certainly worthy of me meeting with him. My wife and I met with him at my Mothers condo. It was readily apparent that he was knowledgeable about the market, the Rossmoor community and my mother's specific floor plan. More than just the business end of our meeting we saw that he was genuine, personable and deeply committed to helping us when we really needed someone. Drew gave us suggestions to improve the condos marketability. We hired the contractors that he suggested and came to realize that they too had pride in how they did their jobs. The condo recently closed. I know that there are a lot of moving parts in a real estate transaction and was prepared for some hiccups. I must say there were ZERO problems and the whole process was seamless. I HIGHLY recommend Drew! My entire family cannot thank him enough for the care that he showed us during these difficult times.

Nothing could have prepared me for how amazing and relieving the entire process would be--from the application, to meeting him, to stepping into what is (in a few short days) our new home. From the start, there was a clear sense of mutual understanding, and I could tell through the experiences he shared from his life and career that his passion for realty runs deep. It was obvious we were in the best hands. Christian is a natural at creating structure and clarity, making the process organized and stress-free, while also encouraging us to lean on him for any questions or clarifications. What stood out most was his attentiveness--he never missed a detail, always followed up promptly, and made sure we felt fully informed at every step. He is personable, kind, and genuinely cared about ensuring we had all the information we needed. He was also easy to negotiate with, especially regarding our pets, which made the process feel fair and accommodating. I've often been standoffish when it comes to communicating with realtors, but I was in awe of his approach both professionally and personally. He consistently met my partner and me in the middle, showing patience and understanding every time. He also made it clear that he was always available--whether over the phone or through a quick message--which gave us complete confidence throughout. Above all, I am deeply grateful for his ability to balance professionalism with empathy, negotiating fairly so that each of us felt respected, heard, and satisfied. Christian made what could have been an overwhelming experience feel seamless, and I can't imagine having gone through it with anyone else.

While the real estate market has been really heating up in the South Bay, Peninsula & SF, the state…read moreof affairs in the East Bay has unfortunately not been so kind for us. We bought our Walnut Creek house in 2010 and never imagined we were going to be selling just 2 years later. This however is what happens when you get promoted to a new job that forces you to relocate. As advised by all our peers, we hit the market in the Spring when there supposedly is a surplus of buyers trying to make a Spring/Summer move. The biggest mistake we made though was initially going with the wrong broker. We barely did any research and naively went with a local broker that was a friend of a friend...What a serious lapse in judgement on our part. This first agent ended up completely mispricing our house way too high and completely lost steam after the house did not sell in the first month. When her 3-month contract termed, we could not wait to run away and find a new broker. The 2nd time around, we learned from our prior mistakes and really researched a whole host of top-grossing Walnut Creek area brokers. Though we liked a few of them during the interview process, the one agent that truly shined from day 1 was Kelly Gargiulo of Keller Williams Realty. Kelly wowed us with her enthusiasm and organization from our very first meeting with her. Given her flexibility and how knowledgeable she was with the local market, we decided to list with her. Through the entire selling process, Kelly essentially did everything she said she would. From extensive print & online advertising to key placement of signage on main roads, we felt she really did a good job of boosting the visibility of our property. Coupled with being available for Saturday & Sunday Open Houses as well as private showings, the foot traffic that came through our property was impressive. Kelly was also extremely responsible with providing email, text & live phone updates on the parties that were interested in the property. Through Kelly's dedication and hard work, we ended up successfully selling our house. She helped us find financial closure so that we could finally move on to the next chapter in life. And for this, we are forever grateful. Bottom line, whether you are selling or buying, you really cannot go wrong with Kelly Gargiulo guiding you through your real estate journey :)
