My wife and I met Heather after a selling agent recommended her to us. We were completely new to the home buying game and were fairly clueless as to how even the bidding process works. Heather sat down with us and explained the process thoroughly, guiding us along for our first bid.

There was zero pressure to sign a buyers agent agreement and even as we put our house on hold, Heather was very gracious with us. When we finally found a property we were serious about, Heather jumped right back in and guided us through every step. Didn't matter if it was early in the morning or late at night, she was always willing to answer our texts, calls, and random Zoom meetings. Her diligence ensured that the property we were bidding on had no issues and that our transaction would be as smooth as possible. Even when she was on vacation, she ensured everything was properly covered. We couldn't have asked for a better agent to work with! read more

Heather is a potential real estate buyer's dream. Heather helped us close on our very first house this past week, and she was truly a pleasure to work with from start to finish. First off, we were extremely impressed by her knowledge of the bay area real estate market. She really took the time to ask us the right questions of what we wanted to get out of our purchase, and she tailored our search accordingly. Further, Heather excelled in managing the balance between letting us form our own opinions on whether we liked a home but also providing input when we asked for it. Whereas I expected some real estate agents to push the biggest or most expensive homes, Heather did not do this at all and rather seemed to really take on our perspective of what would fit our needs and budget. Further, like many posters have already mentioned, Heather is also very responsive and hardworking. My husband and I had many questions, and she always responded in a quick and professional manner, and helped us consider issues we did not think about. Furthermore, she was very accommodating in finding times to go see houses. Our work schedules often prevented us from forming concrete weekend plans, but Heather was very understanding and really made the effort to make it work. In sum, we honestly could not be happier that we were able to work with Heather and will undoubtedly work with her again if we sell or purchase any future properties in the Bay Area. read more
