Nicole and Carol are a great team and we highly recommend that you choose them as your trusted real…read moreestate agents! We started working with Nicole over two years ago as a referral from a close friend who spoke very highly of her. As first time home buyers, my husband and I were basically clueless and had no idea just how complex the Bay Area real estate market is. Nicole helped us navigate these waters with ease, and educated us about the complexities of disclosure packets and purchase contracts well in advance so that when the time finally came, we'd be familiar with such detailed documents. Pre-covid, Nicole spent an entire Saturday driving us to houses in various neighborhoods so that we could see what different cities offered and to help us narrow down our home search based on what we saw. We also attended several open houses together and she always kept an eye out for homes that fit our criteria and attended broker tours on our behalf. We also continued working with Nicole throughout the pandemic and experienced first hand how the original interaction model had to change. Without any open houses, I felt like Nicole had to pour even more time into our search because covid policies required individual appointments to view each home. Nicole was patient with us as we viewed what seemed like 20+ homes during a nine month period. She is respectful of your opinions, but will also share her professional opinion when requested. We ultimately found a home and throughout the entire closing process, not only did Nicole help us, but so did her team. We were in the best of hands and there weren't any hiccups. Together, this team guided us every step of the way with constant communication. DocuSign was used to electronically sign all documents and keys were left in a lockbox when the home was officially ours! In fact, with their help, we were able to close a week earlier than expected! As you can tell, we obviously spent a lot of time with Nicole (she was stuck with us for two years!) and we enjoyed every minute of it. She's great to be around and extremely insightful. Finally, I want to share a story from when my husband and I first started going to open houses a few years ago. When we told other agents who our realtors were (we just would say "carol and Nicole") and they *always* knew who we were talking about. Nicole and Carol have created a reputation that is built upon trust, professionalism and extensive market-specific knowledge.

I was working with a different agent previously and it was not a good relationship, but switched over to have Nicole assist me after recommendations from people at work. Nicole was super patient and took me around to view multiple listings on our first appointment. She was super knowledgeable about the area having more than 20 years of experience. She also walked me through all that I needed to know as a first time buyer, and quickly built trust and made me feel comfortable with her representing me. At every step of the process, she personally walked me through it, explaining to me what all the documents in the housing disclosure package were for, and what I should be looking out for. Most importantly, she was always on my side. Nicole and Carol work together as team and I can't recommend them enough! I will definitely be working with them again in future!

When it came time to close, Heather was there to resolve any hiccups along the way and ensured we made it to the finish line. Thank you Heather! RS & KL

They knew exactly where we wanted to stay, saving us from overstretching into a hillside McMansion or squeezing into a tiny, iconic Eichler. Instead, they found us a home right in our ideal neighborhood--and built so solidly it will outlive us all. They are our consummate guides and occasional marriage counselors. We wouldn't entrust our biggest investments, or our collective sanity, to anyone else.

I highly, highly recommend working with Lan Liu Bowling. I truly believe that she got us more money…read morefor our house than any other realtor could have gotten. When we decided to sell our house, we interviewed one of the most famous firms in Palo Alto and Lan. We went with Lan because it was obvious that she knew the market and other agents very well and that she would be personally involved in all major decisions regarding our house. We were very happy we made that decision and as expected she was super involved. She and John managed upgrades to our house that probably added 10x the value of work done. And she was there for both major and minor decisions, sometimes multiple times a day. All her vendors loved working with her and gave us extraordinary pricing because she brings volume to their businesses. When selling our house, the relationships she had with other agents made them trust the property she was selling. I realized after working with her that an agent's reputation and connections with other agents is integral to getting the best price or getting an offer accepted. Lan acts with integrity, has strong relationships with other agents, and will get you top dollar for your house. Our house went for way over asking- far more than we expected. Having sold a house with her, I would never consider working with anyone else.

A few years ago, due to life circumstances, I had to sell a house after owning it for a few years. I was worried that either it wouldn't sell or that I would lose money overall. When I first spoke with Wen, she reassured me right away that it will sell and that her team had great strategies to do so. They are fast and responsive and got to work right away. They excelled at marketing, making the most out of all real estate app platforms and different types of media to make your home stand out, and these things do matter. There were minor hiccups with communicating with vendors during house preparations for selling but they were clarified right away. When it came to getting offers, they exceeded my expectations and I ended up selling with profit! Last but not least, I had the pleasure of working with Jason this year to buy a new home. As a solo buyer, I was worried that I wouldn't be able to find anything with the constant competitive market. Jason was very friendly, patient, responsive, and informative. The home buying journey is an emotional rollercoaster and I couldn't have done it without him. During stressful bidding wars, he was always looking out for me and made sure that I understood and felt comfortable with what numbers I put out. Even though he was busy with many clients, he made sure to take the time to comfort me during these emotional moments. When we encountered an unethical seller agent, he advocated for me. Jason is constantly working and no matter what time it is, he was available to answer questions. I had to remind him to take breaks! He is also well connected and because of that, it helped with negotiation when it mattered the most -- winning my home at below asking price. When it came to closing, my timeline was tight because of an upcoming international trip. However, the team worked hard with my lender to make sure I successfully closed RIGHT before my trip. I highly recommend Jason and will definitely reach back out to him when I sell this home!
