We were very lucky to have the full force of the Talbot team for both buying and selling our homes. Katie helped us get through the crazy process of purchasing our dream home. She worked tirelessly to make sure we were the winning offer, getting us in for an early viewing, staying connected with the seller's relator, and giving us honest advice when considering our offer price to be competitive. Paul came in to help us sell our first house. He got to work right away with prepping the house (connecting us with contractors, stagers, and landscaping), creating the marketing, and keeping us in the loop along the way of any documentation we needed to complete. He and his team were great at making sure we had all the things ready when we had interested buyers. We got multiple offers after our first weekend and closed in 21 days 26K OVER asking! (while other homes in our neighborhood, that had been on the market for much longer, were having to drop their price). Can't recommend these folks enough! Very responsive, very organized, and personable. read more

This is long overdue because we've been so busy with our new home and we have Katie to thank for helping make that happen! We cannot say enough wonderful things about Katie. As first-time homebuyers, we were pretty nervous, but from our very first meeting, Katie was professional, approachable, and incredibly supportive. Her teaching background served her so well--she has a real gift for explaining complex real estate concepts in ways that actually make sense, and she was endlessly patient with all our questions (and there were a lot of them!). Buying a home is an emotional roller coaster, and Katie guided us through all the ups and downs with grace and encouragement. She was always willing to meet when we needed guidance, and her knowledge of the areas where we were searching was invaluable. What we appreciated most was that Katie never once made us feel pushed or under pressure. She truly listened to what we wanted and advocated for our best interests every step of the way. Honestly, closing was bittersweet because it meant no more regular interactions with Katie! We would absolutely love to work with her again and recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely caring real estate agent. Katie, thank you for making our first home-buying experience so positive! read more

We can not say enough good things about the Talbot Team, particularly Paul and Jade. They helped us get our house in beautiful condition, facilitated work with an outstanding team of professionals (staging, landscaping, cleaning, handywork, painting), and sold our house for a record price. Would work with them again and again and again. Thanks Talbots & team! read more

Paul and Jade really are the dream team!! The listened to every concerned we had, completely placated all our worries and had patience of saints with all our questions. They really had our backs the whole way and helped us find our dream home. I will forever trust them implicitly with any real estate decision in my life!! read more

I've purchased several homes over the years, but the recent purchase of our retirement home was the smoothest experience of all those purchases. Thank you, Mathew Kerr! The active 55+ retirement community of Rossmoor, Walnut Creek has a master HOA and many sub-HOAs (known as mutuals). Navigating the "ropes to skip and the ropes to know" requires attention to detail and good communication skills. The Talbot Team provided all that, and more. I highly recommend the Talbot Team at Compass! read more

Let me begin to say that this review is long overdue. We sold our house with Jade & Paul last year and just bought our new home this last month. We have loved working with this amazing power couple and each brings their unique set of complementary skills. When we sold our house in East Richmond Heights last year, Jade and Paul introduced us to their amazing network of contractors who helped us get our home ready in a little over a month. They were able to help us coordinate & complete all the projects that we weren't able to accomplish ourselves in 5 years of living there. Jade and Paul were always available to chat through any questions or issues that arose through the process. We felt like we had a team with us the whole way to get us to the finish line (Jade and Paul even brought over additional staging items to help us since we decided to self-stage). Without a doubt, we knew when we were ready to buy a home that we wanted to work with Paul & Jade again. Last month, we bought our new home and we are so thankful that we had the support & dedication from Jade and Paul to help us (they were helping during the closing of the house even while they were on vacation). Honestly, I feel like they always had our backs and tried to be there for us in literally any situation. We are so thankful we met such wonderful people to help us through it all. Thank you Talbot team! I still cannot believe our home selling & buying journey has come to an end in less than a year! read more

She's a incredible real estate agent: unfailingly responsive, well-connected, knowledgeable, informative, passionate, and in possession of great instincts. She leveraged her experience, expertise, and passion to get me a great deal on my ideal home. And she's not just a talented agent - she's a fantastic person. I had a blast working with her. If you're looking for someone you can trust who will guide you through this process and into your perfect home, contact Katie Hennessey right away. read more

We met Jade and Paul when they were the seller's agent of the first home we purchased. They did such a good job getting such a good offer from us, we thought "dang we want them on our team." We stayed in touch with Jade and Paul while we dove into the joys (and tribulations) of new homeownership. They were kind enough to make recommendations along the way of ways to add value to our home without spending too much in areas that wouldn't make much difference when we decide to sell. A few years later, we saw an absolutely beautiful home that we adored and decided to make the leap to upgrade. We worked with Jade and Paul to simultaneously purchase the new home and sell our first home. With the second home purchase, Paul was a superstar in understanding the sellers and sellers agent and helped us beat out an all cash offer even though we were a financed offer! When prepping our first home to sell, Jade was clear about how to best prep the house and worked with us on areas we could DIY to save some money. She even helped landscape to present the property in the best light and was incredible with managing all the inspection appointments. We're now on 3 home purchases or sales with Jade and Paul within 4 years time and even recommended our sister to work with them to purchase a home not too far from us. That should speak for itself with how much we enjoyed working with Jade and Paul! read more

We worked with Katie Hennessey of the Talbot Team last year. She helped us sell our existing house and buy a new house! She was fantastic on both ends of the process. She was always accessible when we had questions, attentive to our priorities, and made great suggestions. In terms of selling, she was spot on in analyzing the market and determining what we needed to do to prepare our house. She and her team also stayed within our budget for the prep work and in just a few weeks our house was ready to go and looked super charming for prospective buyers. We got a great price and found the perfect buyer. We would highly recommend her and the Talbot team to anyone looking for an agent. read more

Some close friends recommended Jade and Paul, and we're so glad they did! From the beginning we felt they were truly in our corner to help us find the best house in our price range. They listened to what we were looking for, walked us through each step of the process, provided helpful suggestions, and used their deep knowledge to recommended some new neighborhoods we hadn't considered - funny enough, one of the neighborhoods they recommended is where we ended up buying. They were extremely patient with all of our questions (we were first time homebuyers so had LOTS of questions), and always responded quickly. We would highly recommend them, and if we decide to sell our house, will absolutely want to work with them again. read more

I met Katie through a dear friend and coworker and I am so grateful to have had her through my home buying process! Katie helped me navigate what later became a very complicated closing on a TIC in San Francisco and I was so thrilled to have her every step of the way. She and I laughed together and quickly became close friends throughout this process. I highly recommend anyone embarking on their first home buying experience to reach out to her! read more

Jade and Paul came highly recommended by my sister's agent. They jumped right in and set up a time to meet and get to know us. They really listened to our wants and needs in a home and made thoughtful suggestions and recommendations. They were very responsive when we had questions or wanted to look at a property. They are super knowledgeable about the area and were honest and straightforward when reviewing potential properties. We loved working with Jade and Paul and highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy in the East Bay. read more

After our first meeting with Jade and Paul, we felt that they were the team to help us sell our property in San Leandro. They were both personable, prepared, and professional. Any negatives perceived by us were answered by them with solutions. We found that to be highly attractive (especially compared to other agents that we interviewed). Due to their expert marketing strategies, our property sold in two weeks with multiple offers! We were so impressed with them that we referred them to friends who are fielding offers now on their property. Jade and Paul are a dynamic team that yielded desired results for us! We highly recommend them! One final note, we are middle aged clients that fully trusted Jade and Paul because of their innovative and data driven strategies that paid off for us! read more

When we wanted to take a wild leap and sell our condo and buy a new construction home during a pandemic, we turned to Jade and Paul Talbot. Paul had helped us buy our Oakland condo five years ago, and we'd kept in touch and been impressed with their East Bay real estate expertise and marketing savvy. We were unsure about buying and selling during COVID, but once we spoke to Paul and Jade and saw how nimbly they'd adapted - including following all safety protocols, creating high-quality virtual home tours, and scheduling private showings - we knew we'd be in good hands. When we first decided to move, Paul and Jade helped us understand the tricky market and patiently worked with us as we figured out exactly what we were looking for. When we found the home we wanted to buy, Paul was right there, connecting us with an incredible lender and helping us quickly put in a strong offer, which was accepted! Paul had experience buying new construction and set our expectations so we were not surprised when there were delays. While we waited for the new house to be built, we worked with Jade and Paul to sell the condo we were living in. After extensive strategizing, we decided to put our condo for sale off-market so we could both continue living in it while the new house was under construction and save on staging + property prep costs. Paul and Jade advised us on how to prep our condo for sale, including connecting us with a wonderful handyman who landscaped our front yard and did some cosmetic touch-ups inside for a reasonable price. Jade arranged a lovely photo shoot and marketed the condo as a "private exclusive" with a transparent price through Compass. They leveraged their extensive network to arrange several private showings, and within days we accepted an offer significantly over the list price, which we were thrilled with. Paul and Jade skillfully negotiated a longer rent-back period so we could stay in the condo until our new home was ready. It was a tight timeline to get the condo listed and sold, and Paul and Jade adeptly managed the process from listing to close of escrow without any hiccups. We are so grateful to have worked with Paul and Jade and had such a smooth and successful buying/selling process, including lots of laughs along the way. Paul and Jade are not only knowledgeable and strategic realtors, but also patient, compassionate, and kind humans who care deeply about their community. We highly recommend the Talbot Team! read more

We were introduced to Jade and Paul Tablot by eye-catching marketing collateral that highlighted their flair for contemporary interior design and staging. That said, we had a good feeling from the jump. From the initial meeting in 2021, they did not disappoint. Jade and Paul toured our home in San Leandro. They were very complimentary while provided some guidance of how we could upgrade our bonus room when the time came to sell. They even introduced us to one of their contractors who did fantastic work and was within budget. After the remodel, they continued to check in with us but never made us feel pressured to sell. When we did finally pull the trigger in 2022, Jade and Paul talked through the process, answered our questions and even provided a very detailed 'punch-list' of tasks to complete before selling. On such a tight timeline, it helped us stay on task and get our home on the market in less than two weeks. *Insert mind-blown emoji* Throughout the entire process, Jade and Paul were communicative, easy to work with and very knowledgeable. We'd give the overall experience a 10/10 and would be happy to recommend their services to any potential seller. Ryan & Domenica San Leandro read more

Jade and Paul were great to work with, and as they guided us through our first time home buying experience. It was clear from the first conversation we had with them that they had a wealth of knowledge and were very personable and transparent, which helped alleviate anxiety as we jumped into this process. They were always responsive and took the necessary time to answer all our questions (which was a ton), and understood our needs and what we were looking for. It was helpful going on multiple tours with them to compare houses and narrow down what was truly important to us. They also have a lot of experience flipping houses, and even though we didn't want to do much work, they were able to advise us in what would be practical, what types of things could add value, and what would be too much for us to take on. When we found the house we wanted, the process to make an offer and go through escrow to closing was overall smooth a s easier than expected. They were proactive and organized, which helped keep everything in motion. We're now one month in to our new home and couldn't be happier. Thanks Jade & Paul! read more

This is woefully overdue (Jade and Paul helped us buy our home a year ago!), but it's been a busy year of showing the house some love. We started seriously looking to buy a house in January of 2020 having no clue the world consuming insanity that was soon to come. We had the pleasure of meeting Paul at an open house in early February and decided to continue to pursue looking for a home in April and May 2020. Buying a home during a global pandemic was nothing I ever expected to do, especially as a first time home buyer. Pre-pandemic we'd met several agents, but Paul was the one that made a positive lasting impact, so when it was time to get serious we knew he was the one to call. Paul was amazing! We anticipated with our budget we'd be looking more at a fixer-upper and Paul was able to talk us through potential projects in each home. After seeing our now home, we knew we had to put in an offer asap and called him on the way home from the viewing. A few nail biting weeks later (during which Jade and Paul were lovely and compassionate as I was a nervous wreck) we closed on our home! It was strange never having met the seller, but we communicated through some written correspondence that Paul encouraged us to write and I'm convinced that it is really what sealed the deal for us getting the home. Since the sale Jade and Paul have kept in touch, acting as a resource for some work we wanted to do, and have been encouraging through our DYI adventures. If you're looking for agents that are smart, savvy, experienced, kind, funny, and overall genuinely good humans, you can't go wrong with Team Talbot!! read more

We worked with Katie as first-time home buyers (during a pandemic!). She was fantastic. Katie took the time to really understand what we were looking for and helped us balance our aspirations with the reality of our finances and the market in the East Bay. She's a great listener and helped us hone our search through several months. When it was time to get serious about a property Katie walked us through every step, was extremely thorough, communicative, and kept us feeling positive throughout the process. I can't recommend Katie (and Paul!) enough. Talbot Team is honest, ethical, and committed to their clients. read more

We had a great experience working with Mathew. When we started the process of buying a house, We had no idea of what we were getting into or of to look for. He was always available to meet , answer any of our million questions and walk through the properties. He was very patient and understood the place we were coming from with our questions. At times, he would not be absolutely certain of the answer and he would always ensure to do his research and get back to us with the clarifications. He constantly communicated and kept us informed of where we stand in the process. He helped us connect with resources to take care of things that we need done as new owners. read more

James Masi helped me and my parents navigate the stormy waters of "fixer uppers" in the Richmond area during this frenzied time in the housing market. James was able to give me the details on various houses, sellers, and their agents to help assess the value and best strategy when placing bids. He was prompt in his replies to my questions and had a flexible schedule when showing me houses. He even stuck it out with my parents and my evolving requirements and price range. I never felt like a lower priority despite my budget being on the lower end (for California). All this helped me land a great house in Richmond (no easy feat!) that met all my requirements! Thanks James! read more

Mathew was a pleasure to work with. He made the process seamless and far less stressful than it could have been. He went above and beyond to help us get our first home and had excellent referrals for other professionals to help us fix up the little bits that needed fixing. Excellent communication skills, incredibly quick response times and a friendly face that you can trust. read more

Our experience with Jade, Paul and the Talbot team was seamless from beginning to end. In the spring, they coordinated the sale of our San Leandro home. Jade and Paul are a power couple who use their strengths in marketing, home sale preparation and client planning to buy and sale homes. They're local agents who have a pulse on the area and truly listen and advocate for their clients. From our first encounter, we were impressed by how well prepared they were with materials, visuals and even an anticipated timeline for our sell. What I loved about Jade and Paul was their enthusiasm when they walked through our home. They shared their vision that highlighted the things we loved most about our home and worked with us to showcase the beauty and warmth of our property. They were realistic about all aspects of the sale and walked us through every step of the process. They literally created a roadmap of the prep process and took our input to develop a plan that we were comfortable with. Even during the final, most stressful steps of the move, Jade and Paul made sure we were ok and checked in on us. They were easy to work with, extremely accessible, efficient, professional and overall, just good people. read more

This was my first home buying experience (my husband's second) and Paul walked us through each step. He was always available and quick to respond to anything we needed. His knowledge of construction really helped with all of our extensive questions. He was consistently honest with us, and also flexible in helping get exactly what we wanted out of our home buying deal. The last huge positive that I will mention is his extensive network of people connected to the home buying experience-mortgage lenders, contractors, home insurance brokers. This really helped simplify the process because Paul was basically a one stop shop for recommendations for any service that we needed. Oh and one more positive: Paul is extremely patient and easy to talk to. Really made this a pleasant experience. read more

We found Katie Hennessey at an open house and knew instantly we wanted to work with her. We attended a training with the Talbot team to learn more about how to approach buying our first home. Katie and the team were so helpful in answering our questions, and helped us find our first home with (relative) ease! While reviewing the disclaimers, Katie and Paul helped us understand what we were taking on and even connected us with some trusted contractors. The entire team is knowledgeable and I trust them. Can't wait to come back to them again! read more

Jade and Paul are a complementary, communicative, and friendly duo who put you in a great position to purchase or sell a home in the East Bay. Jade as responsive as they come--whether it's requests for disclosures, the lowdown on a particular property, or just her opinion on something, she's thoughtfully and rapidly responding. Paul is friendly, a design/space visionary, and always honest and direct with you. Both Jade and Paul are patient, knowledgeable, and experienced agents who can help you manage what can be a frustrating, exciting, demoralizing, fun, and turbulent home-buying process. My partner and I were extremely lucky to work with them and would 10/10 recommend them to any buyers or sellers in the East Bay! read more

I was fortunate to have found James Masi when I started looking for an investment property in the east bay. As my agent, he helped me find the right house in the right neighborhood for the right price. He was very patient with me, as I was looking at so many homes over several months in so many different areas from the east bay to the south bay. In addition, once my offer was accepted, he didn't stop right there. He was proactively helping me communicate with all parties like my loan consultant, the listing agent, my 1031 exchange accommodator, and the escrow officer to make sure the process went smoothly. After my escrow was closed, he continued to help me looking for a good handyman, getting measurements for all new appliances that I need to purchase to make sure they're the right ones, and talking to the fence contractor etc...He went above and beyond to help me in so many different ways to make sure I am well taken care of. His dedication is outstanding. I also wanted to mention one important thing that James is also working with the Talbot Team in Compass. Jade and Paul are so helpful and resourceful. They setup a Slack chat for me so that I could ask the entire team whenever I have questions. They're both super responsive. Although I have worked with James very closely, I know I was getting a full support from the entire team! I can't ask for more.... I would highly recommend James and the Talbot Team to anyone. read more

The Talbot Team was our team when we bought our home and the experience was so excellent when it came time to move cross country and sell our home we didn't even speak to anyone else. They made sure the process was smooth and helped us save money along the way. The concierge program with Compass was incredibly valuable, I highly recommend speaking with them about this option when it comes time to sell your home. In the end, we are sad that we won't be able to use this team to purchase a new home in Louisiana, but I hope this review helps other new home owners choose Paul and Jade. read more

My wife and I couldn't have asked for better support throughout our housing search. After working with another agent in the area that we felt didn't quite have the time for us, we found working with Paul and Jade to be quite the opposite. They actually care about their clients, and from what we can tell, end up being real friends with most of them. The housing market in the Bay Area is wild, but they know how to navigate it and provide the emotional support and perspective to keep at it while looking out for your best interests. Paul is super knowledgeable about construction and home improvements and Jade has a keen eye for design, and they're both just solid, nice humans. We ended up in a bit of sticky situation (entirely mine and my wife's fault) and Paul walked us through to a resolution like a pro. Yelpers, feel free to end your search for agents here and hit them up! read more

My partner and I used Talbot Team (Jade & Paul) to sell our home, and upsize in the Bay Area and we couldn't have had a better experience. These two work super well together and compliment each other in the best ways. We "meshed" really well with them and it made an at times crazy and stressful process much easier. Jade is ON IT. She keeps the process and communication super organized and streamlined. Her eye for design was so valuable in the staging/property prep phase of selling our home. Paul has a real gift for managing the uncertainty and lack of sense making that is real estate (in my opinion) and his solid instinct was spot on in pivotal moments of our selling/buying journey. Highly recommend this wonderful team. read more

We've worked with Paul on two occassions now - first when we bought our condo, and then when we sold it a few years later. Paul is simply an awesome agent and human being, and it's no wonder he's in the top 1% of agents. He's as patient as a saint (no matter how much a pain in the ass his clients can be :P), knowledgable about the local market, and attentive and responsive to your needs. When we had an unlucky flooding incident, Paul was there immediately with his shop vac and helped us find professionals to remediate the situation. When we were trying to decide on renovations and touchups to do, Paul gave us guidance on what would-be buyers wanted. When we weren't getting the offers we needed, Paul came up with a pricing strategy and helped us navigate the market as it was changing rapidly. We could always rely on Paul to help us out, even if it wasn't in the usual agents' job description. And lastly, Paul is a great friend and family man who earns an honest living. Please give him your business - you won't regret it. read more

We reached out to Paul and Jade when we were interested in selling our home in East Richmond Heights. We had previously been working with a different realtor but felt that their communication and marketing strategies were lacking. Working with the Talbot team was a breath of fresh air. They are attentive and happy to answer all questions which was especially helpful for us since it was our first time selling a house. Their marketing strategies are current and specialize in digital/social tactics which is so important in the current real estate market. I would highly recommend Jade and Paul to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home. They go above and beyond for their clients. Most importantly, they are great people that are interested in spreading positivity and doing business the right way. read more

We started on this most recent journey after watching their seller's webinar and having just found out we were expecting, decided to see if we could make the move in this crazy market. After previously working with Paul to buy our first home in 2018, we were excited to work with him again, but having both Paul and Jade on our team, I couldn't ask for anything more! These two seriously went above and beyond in helping us get our first home on the market, they came over for a walk-thru to help us come up with a punch list of upgrades so we could get the best ROI that would help us purchase the second home. With a tight deadline and a tight budget, we did quite a bit of DIY but they helped us find the best contractors to help with the upgrades beyond our ability, and also picked out pieces that would give our home the edge it needed to sell quickly. Jade helped stay on top of the contractors, and came over several times to map out the projects with them and keep them on schedule. Thanks to their genius marketing plan, our home sold quickly and we were able to start looking for our new home! We ended up driving past a Compass "Coming Soon" listing in a neighborhood we were interested in, and they jumped on it quickly so that we could be one of the first parties to see it before it came on the market. We offered a competitive price, and were quickly accepted and in escrow for our new home within a week of closing on the old home. Paul and Jade were in constant communication with us the entire process, about 4 months start to finish, and I don't think we could've asked for a better team to guide us through the complicated real estate market, during COVID no less! read more

Jade and Paul made our home buying process so enjoyable! As first time home buyers, we were nervous about entering a highly competitive market. But after sharing what we were looking for, they were able to give us greater insight and helped us strategize for our search. They understood our needs and used their expertise to guide us through the process. We were initially prepared to spend 3-6 months searching but with Jade and Paul's help, we were able to find our house and close escrow in a little over a month! And despite all of the Covid restrictions, Jade created convenient itineraries for our weekend home tours, even adding properties that were not listed yet. When we found our house, they counseled us on the importance of creating a strong, clean offer while keeping in mind our personal and financial needs. They've also been available for helping us through our kitchen and bathroom renovation even after we closed with recommendations for contractors and design options. It's clear they have a deep understanding of the local market and love for this work. We could not be happier with our experience working with them and with our new home! read more

Jade, Paul, and James were great to work with. Very patient which is very important when you are a first time home buyer. I would recommend them as a realtor. read more

After working with them off and on for nearly 3 years, my husband and I finally found a home that fit what we were looking for. Paul negotiated a price that was less than asking (nearly unheard of out here) and helped us through a drawn out escrow (due to the shelter-in-place order). I highly recommend Paul and Jade. read more

Paul helped us buy our first home and was an incredible help. Not only is he very knowledgeable about the market and the process of buying, but he's familiar with construction and can point out issues we may not have noticed. He's done his own remodel work too and has a good idea about prices of various upgrades. I had tons of questions and Paul was always available and did a great job negotiating with the seller. He also made the house hunting part really fun! I would absolutely use him again. read more

We met Paul when he helped us find our first condo back in 2017. Paul is a lot of fun to work with, really knowledgeable, and so on top of things. He gave us great advice and guidance when it came to helping us put in our bid, inspections, etc -- we ended up getting our condo (our first bid), despite not being the highest bidder. We reached out to Paul again when we were ready to sell our place this year and he was, once again, amazing. This time, Jade and Paul put together a marketing package that really helped sell our place. The process was being drawn out by the buyer, but Paul helped us navigate those waters. We closed our sale the day before shelter-in-place went into effect. We loved working with Paul and Jade and would highly recommend this amazing duo. read more

My home buying journey with Paul started when I happened to mention that I had been thinking about buying my first home at a social event. He helped me through the entire process starting from introducing me with my loan officer, and ended with me getting my first home. He is consistently flexible for meetings, available for questions and genuinely engaged in my home buying process. What really set Paul and my home buying experience apart was that he helped me prioritize the things that mattered most to me and partner. That experience made the entire process a whole lot easier to find the home that we wanted. read more

Paul is very comfortable around buildings, construction and comes from a family of journeyman Iron-Workers. All these ingredients with his additional background in the teaching-field makes Paul very well placed as a Real Estate agent. Paul was sober in regards to our challenges and did not try to steer to any one particular property or neighbourhood. Rather he sat back and facilitated my decisions as I made them. He suggested strategies rather than speak in absolutes and took the time to understand my vision. I am a Veteran with a VA loan. This in and of itself was a challenge as a house has to be pretty-clean for VA appraisers to approve a loan. We, Paul and I were able to acquire a duplex and put down the winning-bid in West Oakland within 3 days. Let that sink in for a minute. Paul is a natural. I look forward to doing business with him again. read more

Paul is an incredible agent. He was helpful throughout the whole ordeal from finding our house to guiding us through the purchasing process. He was reliable, and worked tirelessly to help us find our new home. When and if the time comes to find our next house, I will absolutely be using Paul's services. read more
