Just the type of person you need when you looking for to buy or sell home Nakul excellence is really solid and consistent. As first time home buyers, we really couldn't be happier that we found Nakul including the recommendation of a great mortgage broker . Following are the things that I think Nakul has been consistently exceeded 1. Expertise-we all know that the quickest way to know a person's level of knowledge is by asking tons of questions (I didn't do it on purpose. It's just what first home buyers do and me being myself). I couldn't recall the specific questions that I've asked I was very impressed every time when I got the response from Nakul. His expertise and timely response makes him really reliable. 2. Timely communication - Nakul has so many clients at hands but I was amazed by how he was still able to respond to my emails and phone calls in a very timely manner. It's not just about the deliver on time; it's the accuracy of his response and the knowledge he has that really makes the whole home buying process smooth. 3. Care - this is where I really think Nakul went above and beyond. Even after closing he still helping us with renovation .Nakul has been followed up the whole time! I'd highly recommend Nakul to any home hunter either buying or selling. He has the expertise to get the job done. Wishing Nakul continued success .thank you again

As our listing agent, he gave us excellent advice about pricing our home, as well as what we needed to do (and didn't) to prepare our home for sale. Derek and Ashton conducted a successful open house and we had multiple offers, including 3 well over listing price. Bottom line - from listing to closing in 4 weeks! Great communication throughout and excellent recommendations for a stager, floor refinisher, home inspection, and handyman. Great analysis of and advice re the offers we received. Thank you Miller Team for making this a painless process! Check out their website and fan video @ www.NoSubtitute4Experience.com By the way, I was surprised to see the one low rating for Derek. Derek is the epitome of professionalism and customer service. I think they rated the wrong Realtor. Derek says it's not a client of the Miller Team, but can't get Yelp to take it down.

A few months ago, Derek helped us buy one house and at the same time sell another. It was a rather…read morecomplicated transaction, and Derek has simply been outstanding in pulling it off. His several decades of experience came in very handy at several points. He is also very pleasant to deal with, hard-working, humble and a model of integrity. Here is some background of just how difficult our transaction was. The house we had our eyes on was in a desirable neighborhood, in a good school district, and despite the heating up real estate market, it was priced below market (even the appraisal came in substantially above the asking price). The seller was moving out of state and was looking for a quick sale. On the other hand, to even get a chance at this house, we had to sell the house we owned first, and quickly. The problem was compounded by the fact that our house was quite unusual and somewhat overbuilt for the area: We were looking to get about $800,000 in an area where most homes sell for $600,000. In fact, our neighbor's house sold the same month for $595,000. So it looked like a very long shot to me. But here is where Derek's experience and expertise paid off. First, he structured our offer to the seller so attractively (without going over the asking price!), even offering a presentation in-person, that we had a contract within two days. Then came the even harder part: Selling our unusual home, while the clock was ticking. The marketing campaign Derek now started was remarkable: From top notch photographs, flyers, to simultaneous postings on many different websites, to holding open house on consecutive days, Derek pulled off everything one could think of and more. He even had a professional video done which was posted on youtube. Even my friends remarked that they had not seen anything like it. And it paid off: Not only did we sell our house right after a single open house weekend, we got multiple offers, were in position to negotiate terms to our liking and got substantially over our asking price. In addition to Derek's top notch performance, he is also very personable, helpful and responsive. He came by our house on short notice anytime there was something important to discuss. Derek has also assembled a great support team, from photographers and videographers, to contractors and title officers. The loan officer he referred me to even responded to my questions on a Sunday! Finally, I wanted to share one of many episodes that shows how Derek goes far beyond the call of duty. After our transactions had already closed and his work was done, he continued to help: I had to move from my old to my new house quickly, and I decided to donate some of my furniture to charity. Derek organized the pickup by the charity. However, when at the last moment before my move the charity bailed out, Derek himself with his family came with their pickup truck and transported my furniture to goodwill. I was speechless - where do you find a realtor like that today? Before this review gets even longer, let me close by saying that I am so glad I hired Derek for my transactions, and I highly and whole-heartedly recommend him to anybody who is looking to buy or sell a home (or both).

For us, the relationship has grown from being acquainted with a "good realtor" to a great friend whom you can trust - a relationship to cherish for a long long time. Genuineness is the first word that comes to our minds when we think of Upasna. We are extremely pleased working with her. In our interactions, we found Upasna to be - Great at her job - knows what she is doing! - Very thorough - Very responsive to any of our queries - Very genuine - Confident and persuasive - A fine negotiator. On the denise st property, I personally was not 100% in and kept going back to the small-bathroom size, but she explained all the pros and cons patiently and assured that we will be happy with the purchase.

DISINGENUOUS, LIAR, AVOID UPASANA!! Read on…read more.. Upasana is one of the most disingenuous people I have met. I was a first time buyer and I found a new condo to purchase online and a friend recommended Upasana, so I reached out to her to be my realtor. She did not assist one bit in the purchase (what kind of creditors to choose for the mortgage, how to negotiate with creditors, what other potential houses to look at etc). In some of the new condo purchases, the builder gives a fixed cashback to the realtor and the realtor is free to share the cashback with the buyer. She did not dicuss about cashback and avoided topics on it until I visited the condo with her in person. I later found our that the first time a buyer visits in person to view a condo, the buyer records the name of the realtor as the realtor and there is no way to change the same. She then brought up the topic of cashback and lied to me that no such cashback exists. When I found out from the buyer that indeed there was a cashback, some of the things she said to dissuade me were "Money is not everything", "I do not give cashback since that is my 'policy'", "Her former buyer in mission hills called her during a fire, other agents cheat a lot and she's not like them". When I pursuaded her, she agreed to give a cashback which was only 50% of the usual cashback that a buyer gets from realtors. Other times she lied to me: I was travelling so I could not visit the condo during construction, so when I requested her to visit the same, she lied to me that it is illegal for a non-owner to visit - only to be proven wrong again. She was also in a hurry to get me to complete the contract, despite being my realtor and did not help whatsoever in any negotiations processes. I would strongly discourage anyone to use her as a realtor.

First of all, I need to say: I am not an easy client. I'm opinionated, detail-oriented, and…read morestubborn AF. And Jason never once pushed back, got annoyed--in fact, he was accommodating, thoughtful, and extremely helpful. My husband can use some tips. So, we found out in May that we're expecting twins--which then prompted a rushed experience of selling our condo and buying a single family home. We interviewed other realtors and finally decided to go with Jason, because we liked buying from him in the past, but he also has really extensive experience in buying and selling in Fremont--especially the condo market. Apparently he's nicknamed "The Condo King" among other realtors. First of all, Jason worked with us to price our condo just right. Our condo sold IN FOUR DAYS. Even in the process, Jason was really insightful in warning us with potential pitfalls, and did his due diligence to protect us from them. Second of all, with the staging and the creation of the flyer, I had so SO many opinions--and while we were crunched for time, he made it all work. I felt really listened to and valued as a client. We couldn't have had a better selling experience. Now for the BUYING process. Jason was available basically at my beck and call when I wanted to look at a property. He also would do his homework and explain to me whether or not it was a property worth considering (there's so much that he is aware of--such as power lines, street configurations, etc. that I just didn't think about), but would always still take me to see it if I insisted. I deeply appreciated his wisdom about home buying. When you hire an agent, you want to hire someone with extensive expertise--and Jason is your guy. Once we found a place we liked enough to bid, he helped us price it so it was competitive yet affordable. Again, he warned us of potential ways our offer would be declined (it's a tough market to buy!), so he helped set our expectations straight. Nevertheless, Jason worked really hard with the selling agent, and was able to convince them to take our offer (even though it wasn't the most highly priced one). When it came to negotiating a price, Jason really stuck it out with us, and never once pushed us to pay more just to get the house. He instead worked with our price range, and pushed hard to get the sellers to agree to our price. And it worked. Unlike so many other Fremont homebuyers, our very first bid was accepted. And literally within a week of selling our condo, we were in contract to buy our single family home. The whole selling/buying process took less than a month. And Jason was a huge part of that. Finally, there was this crazy hiccup while we were waiting for escrow to close. Our buyers had an emergency trip to India due to a relative's failing health--and our buyers were unaware they needed to sign the closing documents IN PERSON. Which meant they needed to go to the American Embassy in India to sign the docs. YIKES. That delayed the close of our sale and the close of our purchase by a week--and we weren't sure if our buyers would be okay with that. However, Jason worked tirelessly (over a situation that wasn't his fault and he really had little control) to remedy it as much as possible. He was able to convince our buyers to rush the closing docs and convince our sellers to wait for our funds to come in. I could rest easy knowing that Jason was there every step of the way. In fact, when waiting for the selling docs, he literally was on call with the DHL delivery team to make sure those docs came in that day. While we weren't sure if all was going to hell or not--we knew that Jason did everything and beyond to make sure it all went well. And it did. Finally, Jason will be there for you when you sign the docs--ready to answer questions if needed. I was told very few agents show up for the escrow signing, but Jason was always there. I cannot thank Jason enough for his hard work, patience, wisdom, and thoughtfulness through what could've (and should've) been a hellish process. The way he handled the crisis blew me away, and I know that like State Farm, Jason will be there. TLDR: Jason helped us sell our home in 4 days, helped us get our first offer, and averted a crisis that would've nullified our buying.

Jason is very experienced and always responds quickly and efficiently. We always feel assured that…read moreeverything will be done well!

You can tell he genuinely cares about finding you the right home, and has an incredible eye for detail, not to mention a wealth of experience. It should speak for itself that every time we met a selling agent and mentioned Jeff as our buying agent, they had tons of nice things to say about him, and always assured we were in good hands! Throughout our successful home buying process in a very competitive market on the peninsula, Jeff skillfully guided us without ever being a whiff of pushy, and patiently found us an amazing home at a great value (compared to so many others we had seen in the area after searching for *years*), for which we're so grateful. Can't imagine a better agent than Jeff, we highly recommend him!

As he told us, none of his deals has ever been to court or arbitration. He covers all the bases. The best part was his recommending what work we should do on our house and what we should skip. Then he brought in all the contractors and inspectors, got bids, and managed all of the work. We literally moved out and Jeff took care of everything. When it was time to go to market Jeff spent hours going through listing and process strategies for taking bids. We ended up getting a price far higher than we expected, and way higher than price per sq foot comps in our area. Jeff was a pleasure to work with. I recommend him without any qualifications.
