She is highly passionate and we were pleasantly surprised by her energy in combing through the list of houses. Besides, she never rushed us into buying something when we were not completely sure. After helping us to get the right home, she made sure that everything went smooth till we got the keys in hand. Her referrals during mortgage process and moving also worked out really great for us. We are extremely pleased and highly recommend Mandy as a real estate agent

Suzanne Freeze was an excellent realtor. She is professional, engaging, and is proactive. She was…read moreable to sell our home in a contentious complicated situation. The sale went through quickly and all parties involved were satisfied. Suzanne responded to questions and concerns in a timely manner. She was available throughout the process. Give her a call if you are planning to sell your home or property. I have waited over three years to receive my share of the property. She made the sale within a few weeks. I am forever greatful.

We are so lucky to have met Suzanne Freeze and have her represent us in both the sale and the…read morepurchase of our homes. She is a TRUE professional and knows the market inside and out. Suzanne sold our condo in one weekend above asking price, but we were then were in a rush to find our new home. In a moment of panic, we wanted to make an offer on an "ok" house and Suzanne said she didn't want us to just buy a house but find our home. She was so patient and thoughtful and we always knew she had our very best interest. There was never a moment we felt pressured...actually the opposite. Suzanne showed us over 20 houses and knew that none were the right fit. One late night after work we went to look at a house and as soon as we opened the door we knew we had found our home. Recently we have reconnected with Suzanne to inquire about other properties. Again, the true professional Suzanne showed up with a wealth of information and data. In closing, Suzanne Freeze is the only realtor I would ever use.

Experienced, Client-Focused, and Willingness to go Above & Beyond. It's not often you find all…read morethree of these qualities in a person, and yet, this is precisely what makes Tina Richards one of the best realtors living in the Bay Area by a mile. My wife and I were first time home buyers looking to lay roots in the South Bay, and needless to say, we were nervous had no idea where to begin. However, from our very first phone call, Tina was able to calm our nerves, made us feel confident, and ultimately made the homebuying process something fun and exciting. She held our hand every step of the way and explained every process in a manner that we could easily understand, and if we had any questions (which we had tons!) she was always quick to respond and readily available to jump on a call to discuss things. On top of that, She took the time to get to know us and understand what we were looking for in a house. During our tours, she was extremely knowledgeable about how things were built and her keen eye for detail was crucial in finding things we would often overlook. We always knew she had our best interest at heart, which is invaluable when purchasing a home. But most importantly, Tina would go above and beyond and fight for us!!! She was on top of not only the seller but also making sure that our lender (Wells Fargo) was moving along at a good pace. There were moments where our lender get hung up on processing documents (or times when we needed documents from the seller) and Tina would contact whoever was needed to make sure it was treated with high priority. There are many realtors out there who can sell you a house, but if you are looking for someone trustworthy, takes the time to understand their client's wants and needs, and who is willing to go above and beyond, then look no further. I will be recommending Tina Richards to any of my family or friends who are looking to buy/sell a house, and look forward to the next time we can partner up

My husband and I just purchased our first home in the Bay Area and words can't express how helpful…read moreTina Richards has been during the entire home purchasing process. We highly recommend Tina to anyone looking for an agent that's honest, knowledgeable, responsive, and that puts relationships before sales. She's an expert communicator and answered ALL of our questions (and we had plenty). She was available when it was the most convenient for us, whether it was over the phone or in person. She made efforts to understand what we wanted and hoped for in a home and in turn,​ made sound recommendations. And most importantly, she kept rooting us on and was there for us emotionally when we'd get discouraged--a quality we know isn't the norm in most agents. Thank you, Tina, we couldn't have achieved our dream of homeownership without you!

I've worked with Susan and Shawn twice. I've known them for over a decade. They've been so kind…read moreand helpful. I'm so grateful to have worked with them. They reduced the stress of moving and buying and selling a home. They helped me with my a contractor and a handyman, painting, staging etc... They coordinated everything. I was so busy wrapping things up with work and inundated with meetings, but they didn't bat an eye and knew exactly what to do at every step, reducing unnecessary overlap and high costs. I wasn't the most high end customer in the silicon valley, but they treated me with so much care and respect. This was such a hard year with the pandemic; they made sure the showings were safe and they didn't do the unfair thing that so many other agents did you the potential buyers; where they either only allowed 15 minutes showings, or worse yet, let everyone come in regardless of the pandemic safety rules. The impact that they have had on my life was/is so substantial, that words can't fully convey my sincere gratitude. While this was a professional service, I feel very connected to the two of them on a personal level. If it wasn't for them I would never have been able to get into the bay area housing market. They are trustworthy, kind, professionals that truly understand the business and people. Thanks so much Susan and Shawn. Lior

If you have any questions about real estate in the San Jose area, and need a reliable professional…read moreto negotiate your sale or purchase, Liz Oreglia is your best choice. Her knowledge of the local market, coupled with her business acumen will produce the result you desire In the complicated World of Silicon Valley real estate transactions. She assisted my wife and I in the purchase and the recent sale of our San Jose home. A long time resident of Willow Glen, she knows the area, and the trends of real estate. Don't hesitate to call her.

Liz was an absolute Godsend when my wife and I were looking for property in the Bay Area…read more As with many first-time buyers, we had an almost-unrealistically-specific rubric that each house needed to clear for us to even consider the property. And, in truth, I felt like we'd backed her into a bit of a corner, given how specific our requests were: We didn't want to leave San Jose (aka, no Gilroy or Morgan Hill properties... let alone, Tracy or Hollister). We didn't want a project house that needed new plumbing or roofing. We didn't want to update a kitchen or a bathroom. We didn't want to be on a major street or near a freeway. We didn't want to be on a block with numerous cars parked on the street. Didn't want to be near an apartment complex or a business district. Didn't want to be on the East side. Didn't want to be in a townhouse or a condo. Didn't want to be near an electrical tower or the Santa Teresa power lines near the foothills. Didn't want to be under 1,300 square feet. Didn't want it to have structural issues, active leaks, dry rot, or mold. And even when we found properties that met ALL of this criteria... we wouldn't offer on the house if the neighbors yards were unkempt or if there were looky-loo windows that could see into our backyard... or if there were renovations done without permits. There was one house that was absolutely perfect, but we said no because my wife had "a weird feeling" about it. And did I mention, we wanted all of this for less than $1.2M? In the 2019 Bay Area real estate market?? Like I said: we backed her into a corner. I never would have thought she'd be able to oblige all of our specific requests. Not only did she come through, but she went ABOVE AND BEYOND. Liz locked into our specific style of home almost immediately, which allowed us to use our time more efficiently during our Open Houses on the weekends. She was able to identify, early in the process, when a house had a glaring issue on a disclosure form or if there was something fishy about the way it was listed. And, in the end, Liz found us an absolutely PERFECT property, on the southern border of Willow Glen, for less than $1.1M. Turnkey ready, less than 30-minutes from work, AND, she went in aggressively before the property even got to its' scheduled Open House, so we didn't need to worry about bidding against other inquiring parties, driving up the cost. Our new home is our happiest thought these days and we could have never closed on it without Liz Oreglia. I'm giving her 5-stars only because Yelp won't let me leave her 10-stars. If you're a first-time home buyer and you're not sure where to start, I could not recommend Liz more highly. She's responsive, honest, hard-working, knowledgeable, and will work to ensure you get precisely the home you're looking for.

I am a full-time Realtor who works for an entirely different company with no personal ties to Kara…read moreor Janie whatsoever so first let me just say that. In light of this fact, it takes a lot to impress me as one in the real estate industry. I've been practicing Bay Area real estate for roughly sixteen years now and have come into contact with and worked with myriad of agents during the last decade and a half. As many of my fellow Realtor/Broker affiliates are quite aware of, in any transaction, we don't get to select what agent will be on the other side of any given transaction. Kara and her teammate Janie are a true '10'!!! Why? They get it! Their communication is second to none which is not only beneficial to the agent on the other end but is paramount for the clients they represent. In addition, they both know their profession exceedingly well, are very knowledgeable all-around and are diligent far beyond so many agents I've ever worked with. Truth be told, if I was a seller or buyer out there, and I was not a Realtor myself, I would be very blessed to have Kara and Janie representing me and that is no exaggeration. No one has put me up into writing this review. This morning as I was reflecting upon the stellar experience that I've had with both Kara and Janie I decided to take this time to write a review. If you're a client who has worked with these amazing agents in the past or are currently working with them in the present, you surely know that what I've written here is no exaggeration. If you're a potential client thinking about who you can have represent you without hesitation, seriously, you don't have to look any further - Kara and Janie will take care of you like you're a family member!!! Oh, by the way, just in case you have any remaining questions whether or not you are ready to make Kara and Janie your agents, they are really nice people too!!!

I can't even begin to express my gratitude to the team of Janie and Kara! I began contemplating…read moreselling my home and reached out to Janie for guidance and advice. From the start she helped me weigh every option and consider all possibilities. Once I decided to sell, she was all over it! Every possible detail was handled, even things I would never have asked her to do. Stagings, showings, involving their families to help, late nights/early mornings. When Kara entered the process she was a perfect balance to the team. Janie and I are both similar in our personalities and Kara is such a calming reassuring presence. The sale of my home was at the exact price I needed (and more than I expected). When I found a home to purchase Janie and Kara were on it! It is new construction so lots of minute details and I don't know how to say it properly in yelp review but the amount of time these ladies spent was incredible. They came to meetings at tile companies, appliance places, attended weekly meetings at the house and were daily/hourly and even minutely involved every step of the way. From helping keep the builder on track to getting the closing done on time. And much much more! Buying and selling real estate is not an easy process, we had some tough moments and things we did not agree on but I always knew that we were on the same team and had the same goals. I close on my home today and begin a new chapter in my brand new Dream Home and I know every time I walk into my house I will be eternally grateful to them both! And added bonus, I get to call them my friends (though I am sure they are happy to be done with this process ). I highly and whole heartedly recommend them for any real estate transaction.

Elena went above and beyond, taking the time to understand our goals and educate us on the process. Because of her early guidance, we felt incredibly prepared and confident when we finally began our serious search.

Elena and her team were exceptional partners throughout the entire process, proactively managing the communication between us, the builder, and the lender to ensure everything stayed on track. She was a fierce advocate for us during negotiations, helping us secure a price we were truly happy with. As first-time homebuyers, we couldn't have asked for a more dedicated, knowledgeable, and proactive professional to lead the way.
