She treats clients like family.

When you're selling your home you need to make a lot of decisions along the way - when to list? how…read moremuch to ask for? how much work to put into the property? how to manage multiple offers over asking. Mark has a lot of experience (and success) selling real estate in the bay area, over multiple market cycles - in our case he put together a strategy to address the questions above - fully comprehending the market dynamics. His strategy worked very well - we maximized the value of our property - in a timely efficient manner, without unnecessary upgrades - finally taking an offer well over ask and closing on time. His marketing machine had our place shown over 100 times in the 6d it was on the market. On the other side of the transaction, Mark is very fluent in real estate investing frequently making on-site trips to relevant places like Austin, Salt Lake City, and Nashville. His wealth-building seminars put us on the right path... 5 stars, great experience!

Mark and David helped sell our house and buy a new one. In this market with very limited inventory,…read morewe were fortunate that we made one just offer during our home search and got it accepted. We interviewed other agents and visited a few houses with them. These searches have not been fruitful because houses quickly became pending even before we had a chance to make an offer. We don't think we could have bought a place so quickly without their help. We really appreciated their access to unlisted properties and their motto of "No sign, No problem". They also did a very good job of selling our house. Their selling price was quite accurate, and they found us painter, gardener, handyman and staging crew, all at very reasonable prices. Execution was very crisp and per plan. When a problem arose, they resolved it very quickly. For example, when the sign installer ruptured a landscape pipe, they sent a repair person the same day to get the issue fixed. We liked having home/termite/roof inspections done early and making the reports available to potential buyers to avoid any surprises. We appreciated having our own website domain featuring our home and 3-D tour including drone-captured videos/photos. Complementary landscaping and staging were very nice. The only small disagreement was with the listing price of our home. We ended up getting $116K over the asking price with 7 offers in 7 days. If we had priced it a bit higher, perhaps we could have avoided wasting time with a few low-ball offers.

My husband and I were referred to Tammie when we started searching for a new home in the Bay Area…read moreearlier this year. Our search area was quite large (anywhere from Santa Rosa to Carmel) and Tammie was helping us in the Morgan Hill and surrounding area. After meeting with her the first time we just immediately clicked. We appreciated her honesty and directness. We liked her so much we asked her if she would be willing to help in our search anywhere in the bay area. As it turned out we ended up putting an offer on and purchasing a home in Livermore with Tammie's expert help and guidance. She has a thorough understanding and extensive experience in the real estate business. Not only did we feel like our real estate needs and interests were in expert hands she was also just fun to work with. Her calm and reassuring manner made what is typically a very stressful situation so much easier. I was almost sorry we found a house so quickly since it meant we wouldn't get to spend time with her anymore! I would use Tammie again for any real estate transaction and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, honest and hard working Realtor.

Tammie Jann is an excellent realtor…read more I contacted her to help my wife and I find a home in Morgan Hill. Before meeting Tammie for the first time, my wife and I visited and eventually bought a new home in Gilroy. I initially cancelled on Tammie, but then requested her help to quickly get a feel for the Gilroy real estate market. Tammie met with my wife and I on incredibly short notice and showed us some wonderful homes within our budget. It made the decision to ultimately go with the new home very difficult, but it also made the final decision feel more thought-out given our time spent with Tammie. Throughout the entire process Tammie's professional nature combined with an understanding and empathetic demeanor was apparent. I strongly recommend you contact Tammie if you are looking for a home. You will not be disappointed. I contacted her initially through the email address on Yelp. She was quick to respond to my initial email and those that followed.

She is as invested as you are in finding the right home for you - in fact, they are the ones that recommended the neighborhood in which I ended up purchasing a home...and that neighborhood wasn't even on my radar! It couldn't be more perfect. They know the market, trends, neighborhoods, what to look for, what red flags to watch out for - and they have a host of connections to help you get set up in your new home post-close. Cristina expertly navigated the offer on the home I really wanted (and it was a nail biter!) - and we landed it in this crazy competitive market! Cristina and Julie guided me through a lightning fast closing (my loan officer said it was the fastest close he's ever done) and even stayed in touch post-close to ensure I was getting settled. Really cannot recommend highly enough - personalized, thoughtful, and knowledgable.

She guided us through every step of the process, answered all of our questions promptly, and always made us feel like we were her top priority. Her expertise, attention to detail, and strong negotiation skills gave us confidence during what could have been a very stressful experience. What really sets Cristina apart is how much she truly cares about her clients. She took the time to understand our needs, provided honest advice, and was always available whenever we needed her. Thanks to her hard work and dedication, the entire process went smoothly, and we couldn't be happier with our new home. If you're looking for a Realtor who is professional, trustworthy, knowledgeable, and goes above and beyond for her clients, I can't recommend Cristina highly enough. It was a pleasure working with her, and I would gladly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

Unfortunately for us having survived the recession like many other young couples our age we were not ready to purchase a home.

Ricky assured us that he would treat us as we were family and he did. My fiancé and I felt so confident with Ricky and now we are proud homeowners. This man is incredible and I would recommend to anyone who wants an honest, ethical, old school 1:1 treatment. His integrity and follow through with our busy schedules made all the difference. In these foreseeable economic uncertain times one can at least be assured that people like Ricky still exist to navigate you towards homeownership. Thank you Ricky
