I'm so glad that I found Alex to guide me through my recent home purchase! I wasn't ready to buy…read morewhen I was first introduced to Alex but he didn't push. He patiently explained how it would work and let me know that he'd be available when I was ready. It was months before I contacted him again and he remembered every detail of the type of home I was looking for. He was straightforward from the beginning letting me know that since I had some, let's say interesting, requirements for the type of home I was looking for, and given how insanely competitive the bay area market is, that the pool of homes might be diminished, and that the competition would be very high. It was a journey, to say the least, being outbid a few times was really disheartening, but Alex was always kind and encouraging. And I can't say enough about his depth of knowledge, not just of the market, but of the ins and outs workings of a home. The detail to which he went through each disclosure packet was exemplary. He really wanted to make sure I understood what I was getting into with each home and even came over after I'd moved in to spend almost two hours going through the details of my home so I could prioritized any work I wanted to get done. I love my home. And I'm so grateful to Alex for his persistence, kindness and patience through it all. I can't recommend him enough.

Alex is a quintessential professional and we could not imagine conducting our East Bay home search…read morewith anyone else. We actually first interacted with Alex when we were just casually looking at an Open House many years ago, and were so impressed with his style and demeanor that we immediately thought of him when we began our home search more seriously in 2020. With Alex, three words come to mind: (1) Knowledgable: Alex seems to know every street, every neighborhood, and has a natural intuition for value. He also has a deep understanding of all the various facets of real estate: transactions, permits, costs for improvements, etc. He was a wealth of knowledge, and he gave us a great sense of not only what we would be getting, but what we COULD be getting if we elected to change things around. We learned an incredible amount simply by working with him as our buyers agent. Additionally, he has a vast network of relationships with the East Bay, and he found numerous pre-market opportunities for us to consider as well. (2) Service-oriented: he is also highly responsive and answers every question with care and intention. Because he's such an intent listener, he quickly developed an intuition for what we like, and sometimes even uncovered things about a home that we may not like, that we didn't even realize ourselves at first glance. (3) Integrity: Lastly, Alex is high integrity and I would trust him to buy or sell any home in East Bay. There were numerous instances in which Alex actually steered us down from a pricepoint or away from a house, because he was so focused on making sure we would be happy with our purchase. While some agents are more focused on closing, Alex was most focused on ensuring that our individual interests were optimized, even if it meant diminishing the likelihood of a close. He was helping us to buy a home as if it were he himself doing so. This, to us, was one of the biggest reasons we would trust Alex with anything. I highly recommend Alex and would go to him first (and without hesitation) for any East Bay real estate transaction!

We knew near nothing about the process of buying a house when we first met up with Anne, but she guided us through amazingly. She explained what to look for when touring houses, sent us piles of useful info about individual houses, the open houses, and the neighborhoods we were interested in. The market was tricky while we were working with Anne, and she wrote a total of 6 different offers for us, met with us for months, kept encouraging us when we were outbid, and overall just made a great effort to be sure we found a home we loved that we could afford. She's such a pleasure to work with, a kind person who my son loved to see each weekend, and I can't recommend her enough as a realtor

My wife and I lived in our home in Danville for 23 years. During that time, we never did establish…read moreany sort of personal or business relationship with a real estate agent after the individual who originally sold us the house passed away. Approaching 2026, my wife and I made the decision to move out of state to be closer to our children and grandchildren. We realized we would have to sell our home, and assessing the scope of what was going to go into this, we realized we needed to select a quality individual or team who would handle all facets of this transaction. Over the years, we had been receiving flyers from a team at Compass called Frazzano Tse. We got a good feeling from the approach of their marketing pieces which prompted us to reach out to them to see if they would be willing to speak to us. While I knew prior to the meeting that they had a superior track record in the field and were very accomplished, during the meeting itself there was not a single mention of this. The entire conversation revolved around the needs of my wife and I, what we are trying to accomplish, our time frame, and what was important to us. While our original intent was to perhaps interview a couple of different agents, at the end of that meeting we made the decision that that was not necessary. We were confident that we found people who truly had our best interests at heart. Understanding that this was not our areas of expertise, we promised ourselves that we would do exactly what Alex and Joe asked of us. During the process, there were a number of suggestions that they made where our initial reaction was to push back because of our preconceived notions. Each time they explained to us the cause and effect of what they asked of us. Ultimately, we put quite a bit of time and money into making our house more attractive and desirable with the hope that it would sell quickly and for top dollar. Finally at the end of a process that started six months earlier, the house was ready to go on the market. To our amazement, the very first individual who viewed the property made an offer that was significantly over the price we were asking for all cash and asked for a quick close. This was a quality buyer who obviously felt strongly about owning our home. The escrow process also went very smoothly, and from start to finish, from the day our home was listed to close was less than 30 days. I base the success of any business transaction on the number of times one is negatively surprised during the process. We can honestly say there was not a single point in time when there was a timeline missed, or that what they said would happen didn't actually happen, and oftentimes turned out better than what they prepared us for. In closing, I do believe one of the best decisions we ever made was going on a simple hunch from a marketing piece that these two individuals were people we wanted representing us in the single largest financial transaction of our lives. We could not have been more pleased or recommend them any more highly. Thank you once again, Alex and Joe, for exceeding our expectations. Eric & Nancy Furstner

After months of looking for a home, Vicky McKeown (real estate agent on the Joe Frazzano Team)…read moreshowed us a home in Danville that was in complete disrepair and needed a lot of work. We were hesitant in purchasing a home that needed so much work, but Vicky told us that she specializes in fixing up homes and if we purchased this home, she would use her connections through her remodeling company Galeana's Creation to fix it at a discount. Specifically, she told us that she would charge us her cost for the item's needed for the remodel. Well, that did not happen. After confronting her about the discrepancies, she decided to stop showing up and left us with a home that is not finished. I guess after she made the commission on the sale of the home, it wasn't worth her time to follow through with her word. We contacted Joe Frazzano and he seemed genuinely nice and wanted to help initially. We told him that Vicky should make things right and if she did not, we would be forced to file a complaint with the California Department of Real Estate (DRE) and voice our personal experience on social media forums such as Yelp & Nextdoor. After not hearing from Vicky or Joe for that past 2 weeks, they have now hired an attorney to sue us if I file a complaint with the California Department of Real Estate or post our experience online. How does that make any sense? They are trying to stop us from filing a legitimate complaint with the state licensing board by intimidating us with an attorney! I will show the DRE investigator the letter their attorney sent us stating they will sue us if we contact the Department of Real Estate. They don't want us to tell the DRE what happened to us! I'm also going to contact Channel 7 On Your Side Michael Finney and let him know what a disaster this has been. According to the Consumer Review Fairness Act (Federal Trade Commission statute 15 U.S.C. § 45b), we are well within our rights to express our personal experience with Vicky and the Frazzano Team. We will not be bullied, and we will not be silenced.

Every step of the process was explained clearly, and he kept us informed of every detail so we always knew what was happening. We never had to wonder where things stood because he was always one step ahead. As we prepared our home for sale, he coordinated all of the contractors and stayed on top of every project. What impressed us most was that he didn't just schedule the work--he actually met the contractors at our home to ensure everything was completed as promised and to the high standards he expected. That level of dedication gave us tremendous peace of mind. Throughout the process, he was honest, transparent, and realistic about market conditions. He never sugarcoated things, but he also knew exactly when we needed reassurance. His guidance helped us make confident decisions, and we always felt like he had our best interests at heart. If we hadn't relocated out of the area, we would choose him again in a heartbeat. Finding a realtor with this level of professionalism, integrity, responsiveness, and genuine care is incredibly rare.

Said challenge involved selling a condo in a building tied up in a protracted construction defects law suit.

I never felt like he was a cheesy salesman out to make a buck (sadly, I've seen this before from other realtors). As I mentioned to him, I wouldn't hesitate to work with him again or recommend him to friends and family. Oh, and he's a dog person! Gotta love that!
