Pamela goes above and beyond for her clients, often behind the scenes and in ways that are not immediately visible. She has a heart of gold and truly values relationships - whether it's with clients, vendors, or other agents in the community. Pamela distinguishes herself not just through her impressive sales volume each year, but through her consistently high integrity. Can confidently give Pam 5 stars after working with her over the years and seeing what she does for her clients. read more

I was one of those people who thought real estate agents just show homes, file paperwork, and collect commissions...until I met Pamela. In Pamela, I found someone who understands the human element behind buying and selling homes. She listened to us and she adapted her strategy to our needs. My wife and I weren't really in the market for a home until my wife happened upon the listing for our dream home. We called up Pamela, fell in love with the house, and gave it to her straight: we are not comfortable carrying two mortgages and an offer on this home would be contingent on selling our home first. Most agents in the Bay Area will tell you that's a death sentence for your purchase offer. And Pamela did too. But she also sharpened her pencil and got creative. Pamela came up with a creative offer where we could occupy our new home before we owned it. This would allow us to empty our old home and get it ready for market. A day later, our offer was accepted (under listing price!) and we moved in right away. Pamela and her team worked fast to get our old house looking its best for its big debut. We got offers before the house went on the market, got multiple offers after it was listed, and were in contract within a week of listing. At the end of the day, we were in our dream home and we never had to pay two mortgage payments at a time, just like we wanted. Pamela is brilliant, energetic, passionate, funny, and honest. If we need to buy or sell a home again, she is the first person we will call. read more

Working with Pamela was a joy! For starters, she was always extremely responsive. Although she had other clients, I couldn't tell because she was always so attentive and communicative. Pamela was always open to getting on the phone with me to discuss houses or just to check-in on how the overall process was going. House hunting can be stressful but Pamela made it really fun. Most importantly, after losing several homes in the competitive Bay Area market, Pamela was ultimately the reason we were able to close on a house and she saved us $25k+ with her sage advice. Pamela was able to leverage her relationships with other agents throughout the search and buying process to help us make better decisions. Also, Pamela was really good at connecting us with the neighbors at houses we were considering so we could get the scoop on what a given house was like. Pamela is more than an agent she really feels like a partner in the home buying experience. I give her my full recommendation. read more

I can't recommend Pamela enough. She was very effective, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. When I first contacted her, I really didn't expect that I would find a place and have my first offer accepted just two weeks later! As a first time home buyer, I especially appreciated that Pamela took the time to walk me through every step of the process. She was responsive and attentive to every detail. read more

Pamela is a supportive and trustworthy person. I was a first-time homebuyer last year and I was so lucky to have found Pamela early in the process. She helped me every step of the way and was very honest and realistic given the crazy hot house market last year. She is a skilled negotiator, and it was with her help that I was able to find a house in a nice neighborhood despite initially only looking for condos and townhouses given my budget. I am very grateful for her guidance in this process. I can't imagine navigating the housing market in the Bay Area without her help, especially as a first-time homebuyer. I would definitely recommend her to any first-time homebuyers in the area. read more

Pamela is incredible! She is knowledgeable, caring, hard working, responsive and savvy. She navigated multiple tough situations extremely well and I was in awe with her negotiation skills. On top of it all, I purchased a house during a very competitive time and Pamela knew exactly what to do to make my offer stand out above the rest. I would recommend Pamela 10 out of 10 times! read more

My husband and I were first time home buyers and Pam guided us through the entire process of buying a home, and we absolutely LOVE our house and neighborhood! From the very beginning, Pam took the time to get to know us, learn about what we were looking for, and educate us on all of the things we didn't know, which were a lot, so thank goodness for Pam! She is incredibly knowledgable about the market, the agents working in it, and the various dynamics at play, which was a huge bonus in a competitive market. She was very communicative and always willing to jump on the phone to discuss anything, whether it be the houses we wanted to see with her, our offer, or even something about our loan docs. There were five offers on our house, but we were able to win it! We closed on our house in September, but we still talk to Pam, and we can't recommend her highly enough to anyone looking to purchase their home. We're in our dream home and we wouldn't have done it without her. read more

We so enjoyed working with Pamela. Her vivacious energy and Greek-mama sensibility helped steer us, as first-time homebuyers, through one of the toughest Bay Area housing markets. We learned so much in the process and she stuck with us until we hit gold- our dream house that checked all the boxes! read more

Pamela was a fantastic agent and partner on my first home purchase. She's extremely knowledgeable about the area and home-buying process. She works quickly and efficiently to make your offer stand-out in a competitive market. Beyond her professionalism she truly cares about helping buyers find a great home. She went above beyond in so many ways to make this purchase happen for me. Her partnership was invaluable, and I can't recommend her enough! read more

Working with Pamela nearly caused me to waste years of savings and end up with an underwater mortgage. I met Pamela through Zillow after seeing a property in the Oakland Hills I was interested in. She was very quick to respond and book a showing the next day. At the showing, she launched immediately into various high-pressure sales techniques -- redirecting us from problem areas of concern and really stretching to sell us on the house. She repeatedly talked about how she's a top real estate agent an ex-attorney with great connections and top negotiation skills, and we're safe with her. Pamela came prepared to the house showing, with comps on paper ready for nearby recently-sold homes. She explained to us the market is extremely hot, and homes will receive 5+ offers, and sellers are not willing to accept any contingencies. Based on the comps she gave us, she told us the minimum offer would be nearly 30% over asking, with no appraisal or other contingency. Interestingly, that number was my maximum mortgage pre-approval amount. She wrote and sent a complete offer to us for immediately after the showing, extremely confident in her valuation and doing her very best to create a sense of urgency to make the offer. After reviewing her comps, we were spooked because the comp houses she provided were substantially better than the one we looked at. On the paper she gave us numbers appeared comparable, but when evaluating the MLS listing and looking at pictures it was clear these houses were an order of magnitude nicer than the one she showed us. I chose not to make the offer at the suggested 28% over. The house sold for less than 5% over asking. Had I listened to Pamela, I would have either 1) Lost earnest money deposit as financing would fall through when my lender determined the property would not appraise for the offer amount; and Pamela had me waive appraisal contingency, or 2) Overpaid more than the total 20% down payment amount for the house when compared to the next best offer. Her expert advice nearly caused me to lose years of post-tax savings earned from hard work. read more

We interviewed several agents to sell our house and they all proved to be disappointing. Our friends told us that Pamela had sold their house and got top dollar. We called Pamela and told her we wanted to sell our house and she shot into action. In less than 2 weeks our house was on the market. She has a list of resources who helped us pack up our house, deep clean the inside, power wash the outside, replant our gardens, do repairs, trim our overgrown trees and order parts for our oven and refrigerator. She found a stager who would let us live in the house with our pets. Pamela came and swept before every showing, brought fresh flowers and food for the Open Houses! There is nothing she would not do including walking our dogs! She also did all the marketing and ads for us. In the end, Pamela was the one who found our buyer and had another agent represent them. Pamela is also an attorney and negotiated very well for us. We are now great friends and she has had us to dinner and introduced us to other parents. What stands out about Pamela is how hard she works, how smart she is and how kind and ethical she is. I will recommend her to all my friends and family. Thank you Pamela! read more

Pamela helped us find our "Dream Home"! For those looking to purchase a home in the East Bay/Bay area you will soon realize how tough this market is to crack. Luckily we had Pamela by our side, step by step to see us through this journey in finding our future home. We really relied on Pamela's expertise on the market, neighborhoods, school districts and industry knowledge to help guide us through the home buying process. She is thoughtful, & truly cares about where you end up, and will make sure you are super happy with your purchase. Each house we saw was very educational and thats really how Pamela conducted each showing, helping us understand what we wanted and didn't want in a future home. We both learned a lot and were super lucky to have found a house that we love. We loved working with Pamela & would highly recommend her to friends looking. read more

I can't say enough great things about Pam! She was absolutely instrumental in being able to purchase our home. Not only did she make us feel like we were her only clients but she always made sure we were well educated and prepared for the next step. Her negotiation skill were essential in making sure we remained competitive even when we weren't the best offer. read more

Pam recently listed and sold our house. She was a pleasure to work with and made the process easy, because she took care of everything from lining up and letting in the necessary inspectors, to following up with a great crew to make any necessary repairs. She was helpful and cheerful throughout. With Pam's know-how and advice, we were able to sell our house one week from listing it with multiple offers. I highly recommend Pam if you are selling. read more

Pamela Fullerton was a remarkable advocate throughout the home buying process, and we recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone interested in East Bay real estate. My husband and I were first-time homebuyers and relatively new to the area. When we met Pamela, we didn't know exactly what we were looking for, but we had a long list of properties we had found online and wanted to see. Pamela spent that first morning driving around Oakland with us, patiently agreeing to show us houses that were impractical for various reasons (cost, needed too much work, too far from work, etc). Pamela asked us questions about our lives and helped us realize the kind of place we were looking for. Her attention to our preferences and values early on made the process so much more efficient. Throughout the home search, Pamela made sure we were aware of every good option that came on the market. At no point did we feel that she had an agenda for our buying process -- instead, Pamela was laser-focused on helping us find the perfect home. When we decided on a place that we loved, Pamela's performance as a closer was OUTSTANDING! (My spouse works in an ER and remarked that Pamela showed the kind of focus during bidding that he reserves for medical emergencies.) Pamela used her professional connections to help us win the bid (throughout the process, she knew and was friendly with many realtors). We are so happy with our new home and are confident that we paid a below-market price thanks to Pamela's negotiation skills (Zillow and Redfin agree!). Buying a home in the Bay Area is expensive and stressful, and it's so important to have a trustworthy advocate. I've gotten the impression that this can be hard to find -- friends have told us about realtors who don't know the East Bay well, don't get along well with others, pushed them toward higher bids, or started ignoring their calls as soon as the bidding documents were signed. This is NOT Pamela! She helped us with the minutia of home-buying throughout escrow, explained the process to us thoroughly throughout, and helped us prepare for the move. Even after closing, Pamela has continued to help us settle in by connecting us with people and neighborhood resources. She even ordered us a pizza on our moving day! At every step in the process, we were blown away by Pamela's professionalism, kindness, and energy. If you are looking for an advocate in this process -- it's Pamela. read more

We met Pam by chance while starting to look for our first house. A year later we moved into our dream home, and it definitely wouldn't have happened without her. She took the time to educate us as we learned what we wanted and didn't want, and she had the patience to stick with us despite how picky we were. Most importantly, Pam saved her best for last. As a lawyer, she's great at dealing with selling agents and the offer process. She got us to the table, guided us through the offer, and totally nailed it. Then she bought us a fig tree for the back yard, had a sketch of the house made and framed, and made me cry when she gave it to us and told us we'll probably have our first child here. If she's available, you should work with her. read more

Pamela was instrumental in helping my wife and I buy our first home. She knows the market extremely well and put us in the best possible position to close on our new home. Her attention to detail and extensive knowledge of the process saved us time and money. Pamela was always responsive and is a master negotiator. She was not only a great agent but treated us like family. We would highly recommend her to anyone, she is amazing to work with! read more

Pamela worked with us as a buyer agent and we're extremely disappointed with the process. She is very pushy, and provides little information about the market or competing offers. Her only advice has been to offer the maximum amount of our underwritten loan, regardless of house. When we got a higher loan, suddenly a "good" price was that new amount. She pull disparate comps from all different regions, sizes and conditions of house. She uses terms like "median sale price" when comparing a house much smaller than median. She did not offer any intelligent opinions on any house's quality. Every house was "must have" and every house was "the best you'll find. You can't lose this opportunity." She tried to pressure us into buying a house we didn't even look at. We're not sure whose best interest she was representing at any time. We proposed an offer at a lower price and she argued with us for hours with repeated phone calls trying to convince us of paying more, after we told her that we need the night to think through it and don't call us if she don't have new information to present. Whether she was getting a kickback for the higher price or what, I would love to know why she would argue against our interests so much. read more

The Bay Area is a pretty fierce real-estate market. Being passive here simply doesn't work. Fortunately Pamela is far from passive. I'm writing this review from my dream home that she worked tirelessly for us to own. Always available, and always ready to get things done, my wife and I were fortunate enough to see a home in the middle of a long weekend with offers due the next business day. It's not a small feat to get everything together, especially on a long weekend, yet Pamela made it happen. The ugly truth though, Pamela will tell you what a home will go for, and it will upset you, but she will be right. This area is tough to buy, but she's a tough agent, and she knows this area. read more

Pamela made our dreams come true. We were sure we couldn't find a house in our budget in our first-choice neighborhood, but Pamela found the perfect fit, and gave us a ton of support in making the offer, closing the deal, and making it easy for us. She gave us step by step guidance on everything that we needed to do, and so it didn't feel nearly as difficult as it would have otherwise. She recommended excellent professionals for everything we'd need. She negotiated brilliantly on our behalf, sought to get a private audience with the seller to plead our case, and got us a fair price on a beautiful house. Then, on moving day, she brought us the most delicious pumpkin muffins ever! read more

Pamela Fullerton helped me sell my family home where I grew up in Piedmont. She was caring and thoughtful, and she represented my interests well in all transactions. She suggested that we do some updating to make it look fresh and appealing to another family who may want to raise their children in Piedmont. Pamela and I discussed what my house might sell for without any improvements and what it could sell for if we did a major renovation. We decided to maximize the return on the sale. Pamela recommended Keller Williams' Concierge Ready to Sell program. This is an amazing program where all improvements are paid from the proceeds of the sale with no upfront costs. She worked with the contractor, the decorator, the vendors, the gardener, inspectors, and the City of Piedmont to obtain all permits in a timely fashion. Basically, I handed her the keys, and she did the rest. But Pamela kept me informed and asked my opinion about color, finishes, details, costs, etc. I watched my home transform into basically a new home. I did maximize my profit and was delighted with Pamela's efforts. She has a tremendous understanding of the Piedmont market. I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants to sell her home. read more

Pamela was amazing in helping us find a home quickly and easily. When we found one we loved, Pamela was on it in full-force, making sure our bid got in first. After that she was on top of all aspects of the purchase, working nights with the bankers and making sure everything fell into place for closing. The Bay Area real estate market is crazy, and I'm so glad we had Pamela on our side for this journey. read more

Pamela was a listing agent for us, I wouldn't recommend her, she is probably more of a buyers agent. She is her own person and doesn't listen to the sellers wishes. A lot of anxiety in this transition. I believe real estate transactions should go smoothly, this was a nightmare. read more

Pamela is one of the best realestate agents you can ever hope to work with. She is patient, knowledgeable, attentive, and truly listens to help you find and acquire the home of your dreams. She was so fun to work with she really took the stress away from the various situations that come with home buying. Her background as an attorney was so valuable in deal negotiations. If you get the pleasure of having her as your agent you are truly fortunate. read more

Working with Pamela feels like you're working with family. Honest, direct and will fight like hell to get you the house of your dreams. We couldn't have felt in better hands than with Pamela and will recommend her to any of our friends looking to buy or sell a home in the Bay Area. read more

If you've ever shopped for a house in the bay area, you most likely know most of what I'm going to talk about. If you haven't, then don't worry - you're not alone. The vast majority of people living here have never had the opportunity to take on this grueling, panic inducing process. We've had the opportunity to interface with a number of real estate agents, and Pamela stands out as head and shoulders just plain BETTER than any agent we've even heard of in this area. This area isn't for the faint of heart... you need to have grit, patience, and an agent people like to work with. The first two qualities are personal and you either have them or have to develop them on your own. That last ingredient - an agent people like working with on BOTH sides of the negotiating table - is the thing that you should spend a lot of your time researching. Pamela is that agent. Truth be told - Pamela may not seem like your first choice when it comes time to select an agent, but she SHOULD be your agent if you're buying a house here. She's outgoing, outspoken, and extremely competitive. As first time home buyers we thought she may be inclined to get us to spend more than we wanted to at that point once she told us how much houses cost, because she was literally the first agent, bay area or otherwise, that we had ever even spoken with - so when we were first matched up with her through Zillow we thought she may not be the right fit. It's impossible to know what you want until you start looking for it right? My wife was about to enter into a 5 week trial, so I didn't want to waste anyone else's time looking at houses. I was basically left to my own devices - to window shop and make my way through extremely crowded open houses, just to get a feel for the market and areas we might like. During this process I met an agent at another agent at an open house, and she convinced me to work with her on an initial search riiight before the coronavirus SIP order for SF was put in place. We started to see houses virtually and luckily had memory of a couple houses that we saw in person that were still on the market by the time in-house viewings were banned. We put in an offer about 10% below list price on a transparently priced house thinking that "if it's meant to be, it's meant to be". For that first bid we stayed up practically all night waiting for the day the offers were due to see what the seller did. Alas, it was not meant to be, and a strange thing happened to us. Instead of feeling dejected, we started to feel more determined than ever... to try harder, coronavirus or not. Following that, we decided to contact more agents to see if they may be better for us. At that point we found a very highly rated realtor on yelp who primarily worked out of the SF area. We didn't know this at the time but the problem with extremely highly rated agents in the bay area is that they're usually highly rated by SELLERS. They spend most of their time preoccupied with how much houses that they're about to list are going to sell for, for their can't-miss clients - the ones who actually have guaranteed business available. Buyer's agents or agents who focus on the buying process are few and far between, and they don't have much insight. The SF based agent we found didn't do us any real favors. He didn't pick out houses we might like, tell us about the quirks of any neighborhoods, the reasons for liking any houses at practically any price point. Basically, he was waiting for us to research on our own and present houses to him so that he could find their flaws... and see if we would live with them. On top of that, we lost a couple bids because he just plain wasn't convincing enough to other agents. When it comes down to it, you want an agent that's going to give you the sense that you're not making a mistake during this process. You certainly don't want yes men, and you also don't want negative nancies who will prevent you from even liking a new home. You want an agent who really Gets what you're looking for (with the same taste, same life goals) and most importantly you want a friendly agent who Everyone likes! Pamela is all of those things to us. She's a former litigator, extremely accomplished, proud mom, and friendly neighbor. She's a community pillar, outspoken activist, volunteer, board member, and family oriented member of her community. She's the type of person I could see my wife turning into. She gets what we were looking for and why we'd look for it - schools, community, commute time, space requirements.. all of it. When we called her we found out that she knew the game better than any of the other agents out there. She has a few tricks up her sleeve that I can't disclose here that make her better at her job than any other bay area agent out there. There's a reason why we won our bid once we started working with her (in about 5 days total time, no less). Trust me when I say she's the agent you're looking for... you just don't know it yet. read more

Pamela is exactly the realtor you need when you are navigating the super competitive East Bay housing market . Her extensive knowledge, professional network and charisma makes her a pleasure to work with . read more

Buying a house in the Bay Area is stressful, but getting a house without a knowledge realtor is impossible. If you are looking in the Piedmont or Oakland Hills Area, there is no one who knows more about it than Pamela. She is a hard worker, and straight talker- this saves so much time in such a confusing and face-paced market. Most importantly, within a month, we were in a house without having many, many offers rejected, as Ive seen so many people go through! The most unexpected part of the process is how she continues to care about how we are settling into the house even after the close... connecting us with neighbors, alerting us of neat happenings in the area- because she's not just a realtor- she's a friendly member of the community. We feel lucky to have found her, and no doubt, you will too. read more

We met Pamela by chance when looking at a Zillow listing and connected with her through a link there. Thank goodness for her! My husband and I are now in the home of our dreams - which would not have happened had it not been for Pamela. We found an amazing home very spur of the moment, after having taken some time away from searching the market - reached out to Pamela, and she immediately went to work on our paperwork. Mind you this was during Memorial weekend, and we were calling her late Sunday after the Open House, with offers due Tuesday! (She had also just stepped off a plane - but jet lag was going to have to wait!) Pamela is friendly, but fierce. She knows how competitive the market is in the Bay and what it takes to be a great contender as a home buyer, when making an offer. She worked with my husband and I guiding us through the process to know what to expect, was always available and quick to respond to emails, texts. Truly a go-getter. She is well connected with reputable lenders, which facilitated us being able to get things done on such short notice as well. The respect and relationship she had already with the lender we worked with, meant our lender worked through the holiday Monday too, to ensure we had our loan approval letter in time, as well as the necessary documents. Pamela surprised us with a gift when we closed, which was exactly what we needed - a testament to her thoughtfulness. Can't say enough about Pamela. This review is a bit overdue as I wasn't quite sure how to convey in words the immense amount of gratitude we feel. My husband and I (and our two pups) are now enjoying the beautiful house we are in because of her. read more

Pamela helped us find and buy the PERFECT house for our family. I've seen others write reviews saying that Pamela was "pushy," or encouraged them to make offers higher than they were comfortable with. The truth of the matter is... Oakland/Piedmont/Berkeley is an extremely competitive and fast-paced market. Listing prices mean very little, offers can often be due in just days, and the comps from a few months ago may not be realistic today given how quickly market conditions can change by neighborhood. It takes a well-connected and knowledgeable agent to help guide the way. Pamela always made it clear that we were ultimately in charge, but also set realistic expectations with us for how quickly and competitively we would need to be prepared to put forth offers. She connected us with a fantastic lender who offered us flexible options for our unique situation. And she made herself available at all hours of the day and night. We put ourselves in her capable hands, and were able to purchase a house that we LOVED in a neighborhood that we absolutely adore - despite not being the highest initial offer of multiples. This real estate market is not for the faint of heart, and neither is Pamela. I mean that in the best possible way. She is a force, and we couldn't be happier to have her as our agent. read more

We found Pamela by luck while inquiring about homes on Zillow. She calls me and it was pretty clear to me within the first 15 minutes of talking with her that this woman is pretty much a super hero (lawyer background, Piedmont community development, mom, realtor). We met a few days later to go look at houses and she brought presents for my children was extremely knowledgeable about the area we were interested in. We were not your typical home-buyers. Our tastes were avant-garde and our methods for finding the right home for our family were super out of the norm. Pamela was always up for anything, even if that meant laughing our butts off at hideous wallpapers inside houses we would never buy. She was never pushy but when we were interested in something she knew how to get us the answers we needed and she was honestly inspiring to watch work. If selling homes is an art, Pamela is a master. When we found our dream home, Pamela struck (lol) quickly and spent hours reading through the tiniest of details to make sure that the home would meet our standards. It was very clear that she has a background as a lawyer because she was ON TOP OF EVERYTHING which is such a relief as a buyer. She is a magnificent communicator and kept us in the loop of everything happening with the process. She knows how to get you what you want and she is EXTREMELY proactive. Pamela Strike Fullerton is literally the most amazing realtor on this planet. We would NEVER work with anyone else. Pamela is a terrific human being with an adorable and amazing family who will make you cookies and instantly make your children fall in love with her. Or let you call her when you're confused about literally anything regarding your new home, school district etc. She's dedicated and passionate about what she does and she will not rest until your family has the home of your dreams. read more

We had an amazing experience with Pamela, who is not only a consummate professional but also a truly wonderful person. As first-time homebuyers, we were completely overwhelmed by the competitiveness of the market, and asked a million questions. Pamela was incredibly responsive, answered every question with patience and care, and helped us every step of the way. Pamela is also an excellent and experienced negotiator, and her skills in this area helped us secure our dream home in a multiple offer situation. Throughout the process, Pamela was a joy to work with and even helped us learn about our new neighborhood long after the sale was complete. I can't recommend her highly enough, we are so lucky to have worked with her. She made our dream come true! read more

As first time homebuyers, we had our aspirations high and our budget as low as possible. Coming into a competitive Oakland Hills market, we were hopeful that we would be able to get our dream home within our budget. After getting out bid and losing out on homes with multiple offers, Pamela found us our dream home, in our ideal neighborhood within our budget as on off market opportunity, however it was not an easy road to get to this point. Pamela showed us over 20 homes and I although it felt like we were wasting her time, she did not share the sentiment and took each showing as an opportunity; an opportunity to educate, to grow in our partnership, and to truly personalize the home search process for us. Education was a large part of the home buying process for us. Pamela loves working with first time homebuyers and it truly is a great niche for her. Her expertise lies in explaining a complex process to those who have never experienced it as well as preparing them for whats to come. We felt confident, knowledgeable and prepared due to Pamela spending the time in the beginning to let us know what to expect. Pamela was our biggest advocate and partner from day 1. She took to heart what we were looking for, showed us a few things that had great potential and ultimately shared her wisdom on things that may not be in our best interest. Having someone in your corner who is as thoughtful, considerate and honest with you throughout this process is a game changer. Pamela was our third partner in this process and we couldn't have done it any other way. Finally, you would hope as first time homebuyers we'd be more open to a variety of homes, however like many others, we had a list of must have items in our new home. Pamela respected that and shared homes that were within those guidelines, however to expand our scope a bit, also was helpful in challenging some of those ideas that we had in our head. Overall, we would not be in our home without Pamela. She is the best, hardest working, well networked, and truly friend of an agent. We would never consider anyone else throughout this process and are very thankful we chose her! read more

We worked with Pamela to buy a house in the Oakland area. She is very pushy and is only concerned with her own interest. When we expressed interest in a house, she gave price suggestion, not based on the nearby comps and market value, but based on how much money we have. When she learned we secured a larger loan amount through a different lender, she immediately suggested the house is worth more. We regretted to tell her the amount of money we can borrow. We told her a price that we want to send an offer with, after we did some research on Redfin. She called us 3 times that day to press us to offer an extra $80K, and called again a forth time next morning at 8am. If we had paid what she suggested, that house would be the more expensive in the neighbor, more than a nearby house with a bigger lot and another house with recent upgrade. We knew the market is super competitive, but we weren't sure whether we should be so aggressive. And we decided we cannot make sensible decision with such a pushy agent, and walked away from her. Later we worked with another agent and bought a house, we're so much happier. With Pamela, you may win the house, but you will lose money! read more

We met Pam at an open house and were really impressed with her knowledge of the area and the local real estate market. But what really made us want to work with her is the level of care and passion she has for helping families find their next home. Pam worked really hard to assure that we had all the right information to make the best offer in a competitive market. From finding a contractor to give us a second estimate on some outstanding work, to walking though the disclosures in detail all the way to closing, we had full trust in Pam. In the process, we not only bought a great property in a fantastic neighborhood, but we also found a friend and a trustworthy real estate broker. read more

I worked with Pam for 4 months looking for the perfect home. It's a competitive market buying in the Bay Area, and she was knowledgeable and patient helping me through the process. The value she brings to the table is she knows the East Bay neighborhoods and the listing agents. She does behind the scenes networking to provide you guidance and helps you understand what your competition is like. When I was ready to put in an offer, she acted quickly. She also provides recommendations on lenders who are ready to move as fast as you are. Pam got me to go outside of my comfort zone, but her goal is to get me to the table to be considered for an offer, even if it's not the highest one. Overall, I was happy working with Pam and would recommend working with her! read more

Thanks to Pamela, we found and got our first home in Rockridge - and we absolutely would not have gotten it without her. We were not familiar with the Oakland area, and in our first meeting, Pamela not only familiarized us with various neighborhoods given she has been through this process herself but ALSO volunteered to show us multiple houses on our very first day. From that first day, through the end of the process, Pamela gave us comps, good advice, and even would tell us when she did not like a house for us. Personally, I prefer to work with someone who will give me their honest opinion and as much information as possible - and that's what I got in the house buying process. Pamela knows how to give you the best chance at actually getting a home - which is critical in this area! Finally, when there was gap between the lease end for our old place and the closing of escrow for the new house, she even let us store boxes in her garage. read more
