Rachel Birnbaum was the Owner/Broker. She had a number of very good reviews so we called her and spoke for quite a while about what we were looking for and our budget. From the first call, she started working to find us just the right house. Quickly, she came up with a number of options. She actually videotaped homes she previewed which made things easier for us to choose which ones we wanted to visit and further evaluate. In all of our dealings with Rachel, she was always on top of things, keeping in touch on a regular basis and updating any new listings. We eventually expanded our search to include other cities in the East Bay Area. Prior to making our first trip up North, she would give us the pros and cons of each house, and the back story of the cities. She is both an excellent Real Estate Professional, and easy person to work with. We found a house in Brentwood, CA, made an offer which was accepted after some back/forth negotiation. She handled the escrow process flawlessly and the sale went through without a hitch. Rachel gets an A+ from us for the help she provided, including her knowledge of real estate and her mild easy manner. A win-win transaction, so happy we had Rachel on our side. Another quick addition, Rachel is married to a General Contractor, Ron Bruno. Ron actually did the renovation work that was necessary with the Brentwood house. His work and the subs he hired were also excellent. The work was completed on time and within budget. They are truly a great pair to work with from start to finish.

She played a huge role in helping us take the big leap into homeownership.

Jenny consistently had our best interests at heart. She brought so much knowledge and experience to the table--things we wouldn't have known to look out for as first-time buyers. Thanks to her expertise, we were able to negotiate to have all of our closing costs covered, which was a crucial part of making our starter home possible. We're so grateful for everything she did for us!

I strongly urge anyone looking to purchase a home to reach out to Jenny. I really thought this could not happen for me. I feel more secure with my future. Thank you Jenny!

Nothing could have prepared me for how amazing and relieving the entire process would be--from the application, to meeting him, to stepping into what is (in a few short days) our new home. From the start, there was a clear sense of mutual understanding, and I could tell through the experiences he shared from his life and career that his passion for realty runs deep. It was obvious we were in the best hands. Christian is a natural at creating structure and clarity, making the process organized and stress-free, while also encouraging us to lean on him for any questions or clarifications. What stood out most was his attentiveness--he never missed a detail, always followed up promptly, and made sure we felt fully informed at every step. He is personable, kind, and genuinely cared about ensuring we had all the information we needed. He was also easy to negotiate with, especially regarding our pets, which made the process feel fair and accommodating. I've often been standoffish when it comes to communicating with realtors, but I was in awe of his approach both professionally and personally. He consistently met my partner and me in the middle, showing patience and understanding every time. He also made it clear that he was always available--whether over the phone or through a quick message--which gave us complete confidence throughout. Above all, I am deeply grateful for his ability to balance professionalism with empathy, negotiating fairly so that each of us felt respected, heard, and satisfied. Christian made what could have been an overwhelming experience feel seamless, and I can't imagine having gone through it with anyone else.

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!

A resident overheard my conversation and asked me if I had a realtor. I told her I didn't. She said she didn't want to impose but knows a realtor who both sold her a condo and helped her purchase another one. She gave me the name Drew Plaisted. She said he specializes in the Rossmoor community. I generally don't take a strangers suggestion without doing some research first. All my research led me to realize that he was certainly worthy of me meeting with him. My wife and I met with him at my Mothers condo. It was readily apparent that he was knowledgeable about the market, the Rossmoor community and my mother's specific floor plan. More than just the business end of our meeting we saw that he was genuine, personable and deeply committed to helping us when we really needed someone. Drew gave us suggestions to improve the condos marketability. We hired the contractors that he suggested and came to realize that they too had pride in how they did their jobs. The condo recently closed. I know that there are a lot of moving parts in a real estate transaction and was prepared for some hiccups. I must say there were ZERO problems and the whole process was seamless. I HIGHLY recommend Drew! My entire family cannot thank him enough for the care that he showed us during these difficult times.

We had been trying to do this for at least a year. He knows the market, and his estimates for the cost and timing of the work were spot on. We recently closed on the unit at a price that met our expectations, and his communication with us throughout was exceptional. If we ever decide to move to Rossmoor, we'll definitely look to engage with him again. Drew is an exceptional real estate agent and we highly recommend him.
