There are many reasons why Kate McCaffrey Group is the top selling team in Alameda, and I will tell…read moreyou this: they hold nothing back when it comes to getting your house sold for the right price. Our house was not an easy sale, it was at the high end of pricing because our location was on the SF Bay. We saw many offers that did not recognize the price of an amazing view, and we weathered the storm of low offers mainly because Kate's team made it very clear what it would take to get the house. Ultimately the right buyer came, but it was Kate's team who fought to get it done. The staging, appointments, flyers, advertising, open houses all were geat, but it was the common sense bargaining knowledge and technical expertise that separates them from the rest. We couldn't be more pleased with the outcome, Kate and team are the best!

There's a reason Angelo and his team have 160 five star reviews (and counting). We worked with…read moreAngelo to find a SFH with some pretty specific requirements. Once we met him, we knew he'd be the perfect agent for our search given his decades of experience working in the Bay Area markets we were targeting. The best part of the whole experience is for us is that Angelo stayed in constant contact and was proactive with finding properties that met our somewhat strict requirements. Every day he would proactively send us new listings as soon as they came on the MLS, and he was instrumental in helping us write competitive offers on the few homes that we liked. In the end, with Angelo's guidance, we were able to beat out several other competing buyers to secure a home that checked all our boxes and was by far the nicest we'd come across in our months of searching. We feel incredibly lucky to have had him on our side from day 1 to the day we got the keys. I would (and will be) recommending to literally anyone who's looking to buy or sell property in the Bay to reach out to Angelo and his team first!

I would highly recommend Angelo to anyone looking to sell their home!

We're not sure if we've ever been more excited to write a review. From our first phone call with…read moreSophia Niu, we knew we had someone special. Before our relocation to Alameda, we interviewed several prospective realtors and Sophia was the only one who wasn't in a rush to show us properties. Rather, she asked questions, listened to our desires, and very clearly stated how she and her firm could help us in our journey to find our next home. From the very beginning she had our trust, and that trust only strengthened as we proceeded through the home buying process. Not only is Sophia an Alameda housing market specialist, but she's a resident herself and knows every detail about the different neighborhoods and communities. Moreover, she is very well respected by her peers - when other realtors heard we were represented by Sophia they always seemed impressed. We knew we were in good hands. We loved viewing prospective homes with her. In fact, we got to the point where we preferred skipping open houses and making appointments with Sophia and her team instead. Speaking of her team, we don't want to leave out Gina. As an Alameda specialist herself, Gina was also available to provide an expert "third opinion/perspective" on homes we were interested in. They even got to know us so well that they could predict which homes we would like and which ones we would not before we even saw them. Finally, and most importantly, Sophia helped us find a home that we love and to close on the deal quickly and smoothly. If you are considering Alameda, you know the market is fiercely competitive for buyers. You definitely want Sophia by your side.
