Do you want to continue posting the email conversation where you stalked me on LinkedIn and said "Hope [Your Employer] is OK with your language"? This could very much be perceived as a threat. Almost like posting private conversation with your "clients" online could be perceived as online harassment. Oh and when you posted screenshots of our emails and other "clients" to your personal Instagram account, mocking all of us for complaining about your spam? You're sending spam on a professional newsletter, I am (like many others, looking at your reviews) rightfully outraged and instead of being an actual professional, you keep digging your own hole. At some points it's just enough. You're just a troll, it's as simple as that and I will stop feeding you. read more

Kenny helped us find our first home. As you may know, the Bay Area real estate market is competitive and moves fast, so having a good partner is crucial. We spent a few months looking around the Oakland area and Kenny was extremely knowledgeable about each neighborhood. He gave us some excellent advice along the way and we ended up getting a home in a wonderful spot that we didn't even know existed. (and we were born and raised in the Bay Area!) Kenny was quick, responsive, and flexible. He met us at homes before and after work so we could see them on our schedule. We never felt pressured and always felt that he has our best interests in mind. We couldn't recommend Kenny highly enough. He's an excellent teammate to have while shopping for your home. read more

We first met Kenny years ago when we were on the Buy side of the equation. We never forgot his energy and deep expertise as an agent and (when the time came to join the Sell side), we immediately approached Kenny to help us with our sale. Kenny and Mayury were extremely professional and knowledgeable. They kept us on pace despite my very hectic personal and professional calendar and helped us prioritize what to focus on to get the biggest return on our pre-listing investments and efforts. Net-net, we were pleased to close at $100k over ask and on time. I would recommend both Kenny and Mayury. read more

I had a poor experience with 2 real estate agents working together when purchasing a home. Lack of honesty and integrity. Lack of stating when not having clear understanding of a problem and choosing to giving misleading and false information. All future home buys and sellers use caution when using real estate agents from this company. read more

Kenny was awesome to work with! He is the 2nd realtor that I worked with in purchasing my properties. He worked hard helping me find a property that I'll be happy with and ensuring that I was going to be paying a fair price. What stood out for me was that with my work schedule I'm never sure exactly the time I get off or able to leave to see a house but Kenny was okay with me providing his with short notice to view the properties. He did have a preferred lender that he likes to use due to the closing ratio he had with them but was willing to work with the lender I choose even though I changed it up right when we got into contract (my fault on that). But throughout the whole process he was very prompt at getting back to me and ensuring everything went as smoothly as possible! Even if it meant having his team come out to the property to meet with my inspectors and contractors. The part that stood out the most was that everyone one that assisted me from Michael James Realtor came to meet me at the house when Kenny handed me the keys. Thanks Kenny and Mayury for all your hard work! Defiantly would be reaching out to you guys when I'm ready for my next property! read more

Kenny Truong and his partner, Michaela To, helped us buy a condo in the Jack London area of Oakland. We didn't know the Oakland area well and weren't sure exactly what we wanted. It was important to us that our realtor could navigate the Oakland area and could accommodate our busy work schedules-Kenny and Michaela did this and more. They were very attentive to our questions and a pleasure to work with as well. We would recommend them to any of our friends looking to buy or sell. read more

We decided to buy some property, and we were on a fairly accelerated timeline because of our then-living situation. After interviews with multiple agents, we decided to move forward with Kenny and Michaela because of their in-depth knowledge of the East Bay and their extensive experience. However, in addition to that knowledge and experience, we were so very impressed and grateful for their client care and responsiveness. They were always super quick to respond to our questions and requests and even helped us clear out some furniture that we did not want to keep. We would recommend Kenny and Michaela for anyone looking for a great team. read more

Kenny and his partner Mayury make an excellent team. They sold my house and found me a new house in 21 days (Yes I was buying and selling at the same time). They are very professional and the team they work with is outstanding. To the person who thinks he is getting spammed. Just hit the unsubscribe button at the bottom of the page. :) read more

Kenny and his assistant Mayury were truly amazing to work with. Kenny completely understood us from the get-go and was low pressure but informative and available when we needed help. He let us drive the search and go at our own pace, and when we found the right home Kenny swooped in and got our offer accepted the first time we made one! We were able to secure an amazing little home well within our budget in the craziest housing market on the planet. Awesome! If that weren't enough, Mayury was a god send after we discovered the seller's contractor hadn't finished a bunch of the work he said he had. Getting the contractor out to the house to finish what he had promised instantly became a total nightmare, but Mayury managed the entire situation with urgency and professionalism. She gave us daily updates, coordinated appointments at our new house, and even met me at our old place to pick up our keys when we couldn't make it ourselves. In the end, when the contractor still refused to fix the last thing, she kicked him to the curb and sent their own amazing contractor to finish the work at their own expense. We absolutely, without a doubt, would not be in our current home if it wasn't for them. You guys are the best!! read more

The very mention of team Ken and Mayury brings a smile to the members of this household. After deciding to sale and choosing Climb to represent the process, there have never been any regrets. Here are a few reasons why: 1. Before meeting the team; it was the credentials of the lead agent Kenny Truong and the reputation of Climb that provided insight that this was the guy needed to meet our expectations. 2. Climb was also chosen because, Ken had many great ideas. Completing the team in concert with Ken is his partner Mayury Bounprakob, who was the Project Manager entirely. Our process was probably one of the most challenging because of timing and government interference with interest rates. Mayury was always on top of whatever hurdle was thrown our way with a calm word, explanations of the process, lending an ear for questions and anything that needed to be addressed or handled professionally. 3. There are actually several instances where Mayury and Ken did something special. For starters and this is uncommon, as noted by many whom I've shared this with. When the house was first listed, the first opening was a "Soft Opening", which entailed Ken and Mayury canvasing our community (door to door) to invite each neighbor to a party with food, drink and dessert to introduce our listing!! What a nice way to set the stage and environment of launching the home to the public, which was also covered by our Agents. Another instance that I must mention, which I shared with Mayury already is when... the process was in pending mode and our Buyer was coming from the Los Angeles area. To be clear - I am located in the Oakland area. At the same time, Real-estate regulations dictated a change in the process that was not commonly known by all parties involved. I later learned that Mayury saw the challenge and rose to the occasion by spending extra time to learn how to approach and resolve this new situation - quickly. I feel fortunate that we had a watchful, intuitive and professional Agent who took the bull by the horns and alleviated the stress that was associated with that part of the process for everyone! BRAVO!!!!! 4. By now - I have made it abundantly clear - that I Would Recommend and Choose the Team of Ken and Mayury, without question!!!??? Feel fortunate if you do!! read more

My husband and I worked with Kenny and Courtney from Climb to sell our first home and we had a great experience. They advised us on the minor updates we needed to make to get top dollar, and were always available for us when we were out and about selecting woods/paints/etc. We are very busy and techy people so we appreciated the fact that we were able to do 90% of this work via text message - and we would always get immediate response. Most importantly though, they helped sell our townhouse while it was under a very complex litigation that ultimately scared many buyers away. Regardless of the fact, we still got over asking and it closed quickly. We highly recommend them. read more

This is as good as it gets. I was in and out of touch with Kenny for a few months prior (while I debated whether or not to sell my home). He was never pushy or "salesy" which is what I expected from most agents out there. When I decided to pull the trigger and list my home, Kenny was extremely responsive and well-informed. It's easy to distinguish Kenny from other agents out there simply because of: - his outstanding work ethic (very personable, responsive, and flexible) his knowledge and expertise of the local market (prior to appraisal, they gave me a spot-on estimate of market value and walked me through the entire process) his ability to fully leverage technology -- his professional branding and marketing clearly shines above the rest In summary: Kenny (and his partner Mayury) far exceeded my expectations and delivered on what was promised in a much shorter timeframe than expected. From the day I decided to sell to closing escrow was roughly 2 months (including moving, staging, listing, and closing escrow). They also helped my close friends find their home recently and they were extremely pleased with their experience as well. Bravo #TEAMFAST! On a side note: Unfortunately Kenny's work gets discounted frequently by disgruntled and frustrated home buyers due to the expected, competitive, Bay Area market. Although he markets and highlights newer, upscale developments, it also important to remember that the buyer's market is beyond of his control. Despite the fact that cheaper homes = lower commissions, he continues to push for more affordable housing (check out his listings throughout the Bay Area that list for under $400K). read more

Kenny- He's not only a fast agent when it comes to how he markets your home, but he's an extremely knowledgeable agent on the different market trends and can speak to all the ins and outs for both sides of the real estate business ( buyers and sellers ). He's professional in his persona and his written communication. My interactions with him were not just transactional and process driven, it was very individualized and candid which I appreciated a lot. I didn't want an agent that was only motivated on making the sale ( the end result ) without actually listening to my feedback and desires. He had sold a home for me in the expected time frame he forecasted and made the process so easy when it came to all the paperwork involved. I literally only had to meet with him twice in 3 months and the home was sold! He reaches a large audience with his creative marketing tactics and the emails that he sends are informative for those who truly wants a insider look on the current real estate market. I will definitely refer Kenny to all my family and friends. P.S. Special shout-out to his partner Mayury who is just as awesome as he is. She's responsive, great at communication and follows up on everything. She definitely values your time and works around your schedule. CLIMB knows how to recruit the best! read more

It was helpful to see another person call this"agent" on the email spamming. It has played out the same with us but not before we were insulted and cyber bullied. We've asked multiple times to be removed from email and yes, we unsubscribe every time yet he refuses to stop spamming weekly under his multiple alias. His tactic of attempting to attack the other yelp reviewer speaks volumes. It is also what happened to us when we asked to be removed. We have finally had to file a complaint with the Real Estate Board as this agent appears to be out of control. read more

Thanks Kenny and Mayury! Multiple offers over asking price, Listed, sold and Funded all in 19 days! Unbelievable. I was biased because we went to the same high school, but after reviewing Kennys successfull portfolio of sold homes made it an easy choice. Thanks again, and hopefully we will have more opportunities in the future. read more

After Kenny refused to remove me from his mailing list, I posted a negative review of him. I took it down originally, but realized it's better if people hear the truth about this guy and his agency. He accused me of being racist, because I offered to sign him up for unsolicited emails in return for not leaving me alone and called him an ass. Nothing about his race ever came up in our communications. Apparently it's ok for him and his team to call you, email you, and generally bug you, but if you ask them to stop or offer to return the favor they are the victim. They'll tell you they were responding to your inquiry, even if you ask them to stop. Kenny ranks right up there with the other agents I've given 1 star reviews - they bug you, they don't listen to you, and why on earth would any rational human being want to go through the stresses of home buying with someone like that. That's not an ally. The truth hurts Kenny. Next time when someone politely asks to be taken off your solicitation emails, just remove them instead of starting a fight. If you're thinking of working with Kenny - consider this, he's supposedly the hottest agent in Oakland, so why does he only have 2 yelp reviews for all of 2013? Suspicious? read more

I worked with Kenny for my home purchase in Oakland. He was recommended by Redfin, which I was using to search for properties. The entire process was incredibly smooth, to the point where I kept wondering if I was missing something. My previous home purchase took months of back-and-forth, but working with Kenny and team it was much better this time around. One of the things I really appreciated was how "plugged in" Kenny is; we did most of our communication over email, and he was flexible on text messaging and calling, too. I signed almost all of my documents electronically, which I really appreciate. When the seller didn't accept our initial offer, I figured we were out of the running, but Kenny helped renegotiate a fair deal that the seller accepted. All told, we went from looking at properties to closing in just over one month which makes me a VERY happy buyer. read more

Kenny takes "#fastagent" to a whole new level. I don't think I have met any other agent as tech savvy and informative as Kenny. Not only is he on top of communication (will contact through email/text/phone/FB/Instagram), he's also very knowledgeable with real estate market. Mention any home on the market in the area, he has probably already did his homework on the property and will tell you everything else you need to know. My first purchase experience: Looked at house, consulted Kenny on various aspects of purchasing, trusted his insight on how to bid, and even got some money back due to the condition of the property after inspection. Paperwork wasn't overbearing due to Kenny's use of technology. Followup and status updates were crucial during the process and I can say his services did not disappoint. I mostly appreciate Kenny's ability to efficiently and effectively work with his clients. I am very impressed with these qualities and can say that Kenny stands out from the rest of the agents I have encountered. Thank you Kenny for your professionalism! read more

I worked with Kenny and his associate Mayury. I am very please to have worked with them. They are professionals! This was my first time selling and they made the process super easy. They communicated very well and was available whenever I needed them. My loft was not an easy sell. We had a very short amount of time to sell the loft and the loft itself was also undergoing litigation with the builder. Even under these unfavorable circumstances we still sold well above the asking price and got 2 months of free rent back all that within 3 weeks on the market. What really surprised me was that Mayury kept in contact months after the sale when the rent back ended. I highly recommend them. read more

Kenny's a hard worker. He loves what he does and takes pride in being very responsive. He's not the top-producer in the Oakland for no reason. He's earned his spot at the top by working hard, being knowledgable, using technology efficiently, and making it a commitment to know as many A-players in the game (lenders, lawyers, service providers, etc) as possible. His partner, Mayury, who comes in at the later part of the deal to help with closing is awesome also. She's super pleasant and very efficient. Both are great team together. read more

My 1st experience with Mr. Kenny Truong was inquiring about 2-4 Plex property. This opened up to my receiving email from his 10 different email sources Mr Truong uses for his multiple business (ie scary Kenny /doctor Kenny / Super Saiyan Kenny/ Call of Kenny / Rogue Kenny/ Kenny Car/ Kenny Truong #Fastagent /Nice Kenny /New Year, New Kenny /and lastly Kenny@climbsf. In all over 10 emails address and 18 emails (no leads) just promoting his stuff a hodgepodge of stuff he's selling or prompting weird stuff) over a two month period of time. When I received an email today, I wished him a happy new year and inform him that I was working with an agent and to remove me from his email distribution. (and note to self ie to stop contacting me via his 10+ email addresses the content is weird and distasteful to me). That prompted Kenny Truong to send me 3 or 4 MORE emails asking who was my agent, I was working with this person or that person. I told him to stop emailing me and it was not his business who was my RE Agent. That's when he called me a derogatory character. He called me "Felicia" Felicia is a prosititute and a crack addict in the "Friday" movie series . Mr. Truong knows that's not my name and I'm not a drug user or a prostitute it was racially derogatory and offensive. I treated him with respect. And for him to continue emailing me after I asked him stop was annoying. And to be referred as this character was offensive. This was my experience. Hopefully you don't get spammed by him. Thanks! read more

I had the pleasure of working with Kenny and his team on a purchase transaction not to long ago. They were all very professional and ultra responsive to any questions that arose. I would strongly recommend any buyers to work with Kenny in the Oakland area. read more

Kenny and Mayury make a great team: they were incredibly supportive of my efforts as a buyer in a competitive market and really went the extra mile when the seller and seller's agent fell short on fulfilling their obligations. I had great transaction advice as well as sincere moral support, could not have asked for more. read more

Complete garbage. Gets your email address and then spam's you multiple times a day...When you ask him to stop, he doesn't and just keeps emailing you. This has been going on for YEARS. DO NOT LET THIS BEHAVIOR GO REWARDED!!! read more

As new Homebuyers, we were looking for an agent who is not only experienced, but someone who also is really up to date with what's going on in the market, is easily accessible, honest, sincere and knows all the tricks of the trade. Kenny sure proved to be all that. He was very accommodating with our schedule and was always quick to respond to my calls, emails or texts. He was there for every Open House we wanted to attend to make sure he personally connects with the Listing Agent, which, what we believe, gave us a bit of an advantage amongst the other bidders, as the Listing Agent vividly remembered us and Kenny from the Open House. We had a multi bid scenario and we ultimately got our offer accepted. Kenny and his assistant Mayury were just wonderful in making the process as smooth as possible. Kenny has also the most high tech state of the art programs/software that allow him to do all kinds of market research and make doc signing literally appointment free... We definitely recommend Kenny to anyone looking for a savvy, well rounded Realtor! read more

As far as Realtors go, Kenny and his team is the best I've ever seen. I found him on Redfin and we could not be happier with our experience. He's incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and responsive, and immediately understood what we were looking for. After we had finally found the perfect home, Kenny and his sidekick Mayury Bounprakob did a fantastic job closing the deal. We felt very comfortable at every step of the process as they kept us informed and updated almost daily. We will use him again and again, and will recommend him to anyone looking to buy in the Bay Area. read more

It's hard to not notice #fastagent throughout social media and benches plastered with #fastagent throughout Oakland. Through curiosity, my fiancé and I looked up the hashtag to see what the deal was. After working with another agent for a month and not getting any results, we contacted Kenny through his website. Immediately, he sent us an e-mail back asking if we wanted to see some open houses that we sparked interest in. Being first time buyers, we were nervous and had no idea what we were getting ourselves into. Kenny was patient and always available when we had any questions. He's quite impressive, I'm not sure if he gets any sleep. He is very responsive through phone, e-mail, text, and his website. When Kenny was out of town, his partner, Mayury stepped in and showed us a hidden gem. 21 days later, the house is ours. I cannot stress what a great team Kenny and Mayury make. We wish we used them from the beginning! We will be referring everyone we know to this great team. GO #FASTAGENT!!! read more

Kenny Truong is a fantastic agent. He listens to his clients and expertly finds properties that meet your needs. He is an awesome negotiator and helps his clients all through the process and is available for advice after the sale is done. read more

My sister and I had a very positive experience working with Mayury and Kenny to sell our property. All of our questions and concerns were addressed quickly and thoroughly. On more than one occasion, Mayury went out of her way to meet with me so that we wasted no time in getting my house sold! Kenny was on top of the paperwork and it was easily done through Docusign. I knew we picked the right team that would help us sell our home in the timeline we desired. I would definitely work with Mayury and Kenny again when I am ready to purchase my next home! read more
