This was our fourth transaction with the Dana Green Team, and somehow they continue to exceed our…read moreexpectations every single time. Most recently, they helped us get our offer accepted on our new home on Christmas Eve in a competitive market. That alone speaks to their relationships, strategy, and execution. What truly sets DGT apart, though, is what happens behind the scenes. When it came time to sell our home, Dana and her team elevated everything. The staging was exceptional. The marketing was thoughtful and strategic. The positioning of our home created real energy and excitement. We had people talking about it all over town. They don't just list a house. They launch it. What we value most is their honesty. We trust them completely. When we think we've found "the one," Todd digs into disclosures, comps, neighborhood dynamics, and every detail, then gives us a completely candid assessment. More than once they have advised us not to write an offer and to wait for a better opportunity. That kind of integrity is rare. They are not transactional. They are protective, strategic advisors who play the long game with their clients. Their market knowledge in Lamorinda is unmatched. Their teamwork is seamless. Their vendor network is dialed in. Their feedback is always direct, thoughtful, and grounded in experience. Four transactions in, we can confidently say that if you want advisors who will advocate for you, protect you from overpaying, maximize your sale, and execute at the highest level, call the Dana Green Team. We would not work with anyone else.

With so many real estate agents out there with quick tongues just trying to make a buck, it seems many don't like to respond to email and especially if they can't make money off of you.

She was also honest and very detail oriented, suggesting and helping us implement repairs and changes that made the sale of the house seamless. She has a full network of contractors / painters / landscapers / etc so the whole process was easy. Anya was also so great to work with too; helping us with inspections, staging, and making aesthetic updates to the house.

We recently worked with Kristi and Lisa to sell our home in Moraga, and the experience was truly…read moreincredible. From start to finish, they were professional, knowledgeable, and super pleasant to work with. They provided excellent guidance on pricing, home preparation, and staging. We trusted their advice completely, and it paid off--we ended up getting more for our home than we anticipated. It is clear that their expertise in strategy and prep made all the difference. Beyond the results, they were just great to handle the process with. They are responsive, proactive, and always do exactly what they say they will. If you are looking for agents who really know what they are doing, I advise you to trust Kristi and Lisa. We couldn't be happier!

Lisa and Kristi are a wonderful team. We bought and sold a house with them over the past (3)…read moremonths and we couldn't have done it without them. For the purchase of our new home... 1) Lisa and Kristi have an amazing network. We needed to put in an offer in a single day and they mobilized their network to get us pre-approved for a loan, insurance secured, and a few last minute visits to the house for 'mini-inspections'. 2) Lisa and Kristi have access to tons of 'pocket listings'. They are part of Compass, which runs most of the listings in our area, but they are well-connected w/ the broader real estate community to understand what's coming, what are the details, and what is a fair price. 3) Lisa and Kristi have great knowledge of what to look out for. There were more than a couple things that they caught, which saved us time, money, and headaches. For the sale of our existing home... 1) They keep a pulse on the market, which shifted in the (2) months between when we bought and when we sold. The level of pricing insight was essential to have a successful outcome, and much better than any ChatGPT analysis :) 2) They know what buyers are looking for, which then drives how they prep and stage the houes. They were very communicative, open to ideas / suggestions, and timely. 3) They understand how home selling works, and paced us to ensure that we set offer dates, reviewed bids, and asked for more when it made sense. All in all, they are a great team that complements each other well. We went from home viewing to offer accepted in 5 days for our purchase, and we went from listing to accepted bid in 5 days on our sale.

As a first-time homebuyer, I had a lot of questions and concerns, and Maichee was always patient and clear in her explanations. She stayed on top of everything, kept me informed, and made sure nothing was missed. Her communication and attention to detail made the entire process much smoother and less stressful. The Renée White Team as a whole was organized, supportive, and easy to work with. I always felt like I was in good hands.

I am certain we wouldn't have gotten our home without Judy as our agent. I've dealt with numerous agents on both coasts of the U.S. Judy is by far the hardest-working one I've had so far. Like, head and shoulders above the rest. I could text her early in the morning or late at night, and she responded quickly to my questions! We were in constant contact, and she pushed when it was appropriate, gave us room when we needed, and was always honest about what to expect. She is an expert on the East Bay market in Northern California. While most agents will simply set up an e-mail alert and hope you buy something, Judy is actively looking for off-market properties and running a market analysis based on recent sales so her buyers have a realistic chance of winning their bids. We recently purchased a home pre-listing, avoiding the feeding frenzy that buyers are facing for every home in the suburbs. This is because Judy was able to set up an appointment the day before the house went on the market and discern what the seller wanted, which allowed us to make a competitive offer the very next day. She aggressively negotiated terms on our behalf. What makes this deal even better is that her relationships with local mortgage brokers allowed us to find better financing that we were able to find on our own, saving us even more money. Throughout our home buying process she was helpful, knowledgeable and patient. She pays attention to the small details and anticipates the future problems and needs of her clients. For instance, she helped us select a home warranty based on the experience and feedback of her clients and even arranged a free rekeying service. These small things take a lot of the burden and stress of buying a home off the buyer. She really is a full-service broker. Highly recommended.

Incredibly smart and knowledgeable, she gave honest opinions and made me feel like I was in the best hands--with both her and her team. I knew they would do everything possible to make the sale of my house not only profitable but also enjoyable. Since then, I've reached out to Linette several times with questions about the real estate market, and even when I had concerns about a neighbor potentially affecting my property value. She has always been responsive, caring, and generous with her time. I'm so glad I was referred to her. I recommend her to everyone I meet who is in the market. As long as I live in the Bay, she will be my go-to for all my real estate needs. Look no further!

​Kristina McCann of Chroma Realty ordered a photoshoot for an upcoming listing. When our…read morephotographer arrived at the confirmed date and time, she discovered maskless workers inside the small property, which is a direct violation of CDC, County, and CAR® health guidelines. As such, when the photographer told Kristina that she was not comfortable performing the shoot​ under these circumstances, Kristina threw a temper tantrum and proceeded to berate her (a Mom concerned about her family​), then scream​ed through the phone​ at our customer support staff, and then at me, saying "I don't care, just deal with it." We asked her to reschedule once the listing was ready to photograph, only to be met with considerable hate and nasty texts, calls, and emails. While we understand that agents are under a lot of pressure and we don't take that personally, this is not the first time we've had to ask Kristina to behave in a more professional manner. We absolutely cannot tolerate anyone demanding we neglect the health and safety of our community. We are very sorry that she is unhappy, but our COVID terms were very clear when she placed her order.  Therefore, we denied service to her. Please also note that we DID NOT charge her a $350 cancelation fee. That is a false accusation that she posted on social media .We're happy to resend her that invoice for her records. She asked me earlier today why I can't leave this incident in the past and move on . Well, even though this happened long time ago, I am still loosing business by the bad review she left on our page. As I am reading other bad reviews from her to another businesses,I feel very bad for them too. Specially in this global pandemic when we need to support each other. Here are some examples of how Kristina has been rude to other people.

My husband and I met Paddy just once, found our home that same day, put in an offer the next, and…read moremoved into our "forever" home within a month. Needless to say, Paddy is incredibly efficient and truly knows how to seal the deal. Here are the highlights of our experience working with him: 1. Excellent Communication: From my very first inquiry, Paddy was prompt and responsive. We started with a phone call to review our needs, and he quickly followed up with listings that fit our criteria. By the time we met in person, he already had a clear, deep understanding of exactly what we wanted in a home. 2. Area & Structural Knowledge: Paddy isn't a "how does this home make you feel?" kind of realtor. He understands how houses are built and knows the pros and cons of specific neighborhoods. Even if a property doesn't check every single box, he helps you visualize how to modify the space to make it perfect for your future. 3. Honesty: When my husband showed interest in one particular house, Paddy immediately pointed out its flaws and flat-out told us he wouldn't sell it to us because it would become a headache. He never tried to rush a sale; his priority was ensuring we bought a high-quality home we would truly love. 4. Resourceful: Even though we found our home on day one, Paddy remained actively involved throughout the entire closing process. He helped coordinate repairs before our move-in date and connected us with two of his recommended service providers, both of whom have been phenomenal. 5. He Knows How to Win: At the end of the day, if Paddy is on your side, you WILL win. We were up against another buyer for our home, but Paddy guided us to secure the winning bid while staying comfortably within our budget. In fact, we bought the home under asking. I remember asking him, "Do you think we have a chance of getting the home?" His response: "Yes, because I'm your agent." He was right. He's simply the BEST!

I've worked in real estate for 30 years, and Saraya and Simon are simply the best. Put as much work into picking your broker as you do buying your house. If you want to talk, please contact me.
