She is extremely knowledgeable, relatable and responsive. In the midst of a pandemic and highly competitive market, she went above and beyond to help us understand every detail of the purchasing process, went on countless home tours and provided all the tools to help us write our most competitive offers. Home buying is such a personal (let's be honest -- stressful) experience yet Sophia helped us feel supported and confident throughout the process. She knows the area, is dialed-in to the ever-shifting market and can be trusted to give honest, insightful feedback. Without a doubt, we would work with Sophia and team at PDX Inspired in the future and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to purchase or sell! We're elated to be in our new home, but honestly? ... we miss chatting with and seeing Sophia on a daily basis. And if that's not a rave review for a real estate broker, I don't know what is.

Sophia and her team handled everything. She touches on all the reasons you called it home for so long and it makes a HUGE difference! For us, it was multiple offers six figures over asking price in a weekend. Its because of their marketing genius, the way they market your property is cutting edge and it pays off huge, they handled all the logistics from start to finish. It was punctual, communicative, professional and efficient, I could go on and on about how great it was working with Sophia and KC. They are great people and are great at what they do. I highly recommend them, they are my go to realtor team from now on. They killed it.$

I quickly found out several other trusted friends had worked with Joanne too. When we decided to sell our own home we contacted Joanne. From the first conversation and through the journey of selling, Joanne proved to us what a competent, successful, caring and kind Agent she is. She went above and beyond for us at every step of the way and helped us with small things we should have been able to do ourselves, but was not convenient because we were already living out of the area. I highly recommend Joanne Mendoza and hope you will consider contacting her first.

"Amazing" would be an understatement for Maichee and Renee…read more First off, Maichee, who was our buyer's realtor. 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. It was so seamless for us. We are so grateful to have found both these beautiful ladies to represent us. It doesn't get any better than these two!

In addition, her team worked well in support of her efforts to keep the entire process moving smoothly. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!

Sue and I in 2003 knew immediately we were in good hands given her extensive knowledge of the market, the varied neighborhoods we considered and the quality of schools in each instance. She found us a home with great upside and excellent schools for our 4 yr old daughter and 9 year old son. Over the years Patti stayed in touch, and we didn't hesitate to seek her assistance and expertise again as we had raised our children and prepared to sell our home. She is the consummate professional, always communicating any changes in the market, adjusting our approach where needed to ensure we secured the best outcome. We would happily recommend her services to any family and close friends as confident she would deliver for them as well. Tim & Sue Winkler

Due to unforeseen financial circumstances, and after months of debating it, Kristine put my mind at ease, ensuring me that selling would be a positive thing to do in my situation. Kristine was very hands on during the process -- from start to finish. She assisted with staging and helped create an even more beautiful home in just a week. I had several offers within days of the first open house. Timing couldn't have been better. She negotiated stellar terms of the sale WELL over asking and with a close in 2 week time frame. Now, this may not apply to every home, but I'm blessed to have Kristine negotiate on my behalf.

So much so that we barely had to worry about a thing. She communicated well and always advocated for the best for us. She is very kind, funny, and generous with her time. I cannot remember how many times I told her she was a miracle. I would highly recommend her, especially if you are a first time home buyer. She walked us through the entire process and made sure we felt comfortable at every step. When the seller's listing agent did not follow through with their commitments, she step in and took care of everything. I could not recommend her enough.

We decided to work with McKinley Realty for our home purchase in the Peninsula since they work out…read moreof both SF and the San Mateo area. The service we got was unbelievable, which is probably the biggest advantage of working with a smaller firm. Our old agent was great but as he moved to a bigger firm and got more business over the years, we noticed a dramatic drop-off in personalized service and touch-points. With Mary at McKinley we had the total opposite experience and were truly impressed with her willingness to meet us in person at the various phases of home searching/buying/closing as well as her responsiveness to our late evening worried texts and last-minute questions! The most impressive moment was when she personally staked out our closing property on a rainy day to get estimates for repairs from various contractors- we didn't have to lift a finger! Mary is also a seasoned real estate vet and property owner herself so she was quite helpful in advising about price negotiations (the market is softening in some pockets, folks!), local contractors for all types of jobs, movers, tips on how to manage your own property, etc. Our experience with McKinley was above and beyond for sure! Thank you, Mary!!

Always willing to listen to your needs first, an she gives her perspectives on pros and cons on the decisions. Her advises were thoughtful, and she herself is driven to achieve the best decision for a deal. If you select Mary, you have a reliable partner in selling or buying real estate property. Also, her husband Albert does all of the analysis and research. I felt like I was getting both of the world, very quantitative analysis as well as the persuasion by Mary to make the deal happen. Without the couple, I don't know if I would have sold my property in timely fashion without any wrinkles.

Where do we begin?!

What is typically one of life's most stressful experiences became incredibly seamless, smooth, enjoyable and, dare we say, even fun! From the moment we met Dana and the team at an open house, we knew we had to work with them. Their authenticity, warmth, and knowledge of the Lamorinda market was unmatched. More importantly, they genuinely care about and are invested in their clients. We never felt like we were just another transaction. Every member of their team cared about helping our family find the perfect home while maximizing the value of the home we were selling and ensuring a quick, successful close. Marisol, Brad and Allison were absolutely amazing from the start of our home buying journey - really getting to know us, our needs, and helping us navigate the market. They guided us through every step of the process with patience, honesty, and incredible expertise. Somehow they knew (even before we did), that our dream home was within reach. They encouraged us to tour it, and the minute we pulled up, we knew it was the one. They helped us strategize quickly and execute seamlessly securing the home we are so lucky to call ours today. It was the easiest decision to then call on their help for our second transaction and sell of our first home in record time, making the entire process feel effortless from start to finish. The Dana Green Team exceeded every expectation we had and then some. Their professionalism, market expertise, communication, and genuine care are truly second to none. We are so grateful to have had them by our side throughout our journey. Wish we had more stars to give - this team is simply exceptional and will always hold a very special place in our hearts!
