Dale and Helen are truly in a league of their own. They are two of the hardest-working individuals…read morewe've ever worked with, and they pulled off a sale that most thought couldn't happen. They hosted open houses every week while the property was on the market, carried and staged furniture themselves, and always stayed in constant communication with us. When repairs came up during the listing, Dale and Helen took care of them right away. Their dedication and hands-on approach were absolutely key to making this sale happen -- especially during one of the toughest times to sell as a homeowner. These two are pure magic. If you need your property sold quickly, efficiently, and for top dollar, we 100% recommend them. My wife and I have bought and sold several properties, and without a doubt, Dale and Helen stand out by leaps and bounds above the rest.

There's no fluff or salesy pressure. just straight, genuine guidance from someone who clearly knows his stuff and truly wants the best outcome for his clients.

And if you're buying, I'd honestly hope he's the listing agent, because you'll know you're getting straightforward communication and professionalism. Dale is the kind of realtor you can trust, and in this market, that's priceless.

As a resident of Sierra Crest, I first noticed Zaid Hanna's name back in 2024 when I saw his real…read moreestate marketing poster at my doorstep labeling him as the "your #1 Sierra crest Seller Agent." I snapped a quick photo of it, thinking I might consult him if I ever needed to sell. By the winter of 2025, I received another flyer from Zaid that read: "The market is frozen, but we didn't give up." Even though the market was rough at the time, that property sold shortly after. His words truly touched me. In the high-cost, wealthy Bay Area, a modest condo often doesn't get much attention; many agents wouldn't bother putting in the effort and would simply advise the seller to rent it out if it didn't sell quickly. Although I had never met Zaid, I saved his number in my phone right then because I was deeply impressed by his work ethic. In the spring of 2026, my mother unfortunately passed away, leaving behind a condo that needed to be sold. I was at a loss for who could help. The property's location wasn't ideal, and the market was slow, so I knew I needed a top-tier agent. While I initially considered finding a Chinese-speaking agent, for some reason, I decided against hiring a Chinese agent. That's when I thought of Zaid. One day afternoon, I gave him a call and described the condition of property. he scheduled our first meeting immediately. Zaid was very nice. Our first meeting went incredibly well. Zaid analyzed the market for me. It was April, and inventory was unusually high. He recommended a minor renovation, and I agreed because I knew it would change the look of the home. He was highly professional and honest with me, acknowledging that the market was tough, especially for condos. However, he emphasized that his goal was a quick sale upon listing so it wouldn't sit on the market. Zaid's true professionalism shines through his phenomenal team. From remodeling, cleaning to the official listing, every team member was diligent and responsible. The renovation took about two weeks--a bit long, but the results were stunning. The house officially hit the market around Memorial Day. Throughout the process, Zaid called me every Tuesday to give updates. Remarkably, after just 7 days on the market, we received an offer! This completely exceeded my expectations. Given the less-than-ideal location, I had mentally prepared myself for a long wait. Seven days was faster than I could have ever imagined. I had seen many condos on Zillow sitting on the market for over three months, forcing sellers to slash prices multiple times. I felt lucky. The subsequent escrow and contract process went smoothly without a single delay. All contingencies were removed exactly on schedule. Yesterday, on July 2nd, this modest little condo officially closed escrow. I am incredibly grateful. It is easy to sell a perfect house, but selling a property with an unfavorable location requires an agent with extensive knowledge, sharp skills, and precise valuation. I believe a challenging property is the true test of an agent's capability, and Zaid completely proved himself. He gives honest advice that both buyers and sellers should take seriously. I highly recommend Zaid and his team, and I look forward to working with them again in the future.

Theresa is a truly brilliant realtor with so much enthusiasm and energy…read more We relocated to San Jose from the UK and had little idea of what to expect from home buying process in California. Before our 'physical' relocation we began internet searching San Jose neighbourhoods to get a feel for where we might like to live. After going round in circles for quite some time we stumbled across Theresa's YouTube channel. So incredibly informative! After watching, we had a much clearer view on our ideal home. I sent Theresa a message via her Facebook page and she quickly responded and gave me a huge amount of help and advice. I was so impressed ! We kept in touch over the next few months and she was always so willing to answer all our home buying questions. (We had aA LOT!). Not only that but Theresa also put us in contact with a fabulous mortgage advisor (who directed us through the complex loan application process) and helped us find a great area for a short term rental for when we arrived in the US. This was invaluable, particularly during Covid when we were unable to visit the area prior to our actual relocation. When we arrived in the US in March 2021, Theresa couldn't have made us feel more welcome. Her kindness and support is so genuine and I can honestly say we couldn't have felt more welcome. Once our loan application was progressing well, Theresa quickly set us up with a string of home viewings, tailored to exactly our requirements. The housing market in the Almaden Valley area is extremely competitive but we had built so much trust in Theresa that after only 6 house viewings we found a home we absolutely loved and decided to make an offer. Theresa is amazingly analytical and great with numbers and this allowed us to make a fair and competitive offer which Theresa presented to the seller, along with a highly professional introductory video. This was the first home we had made an offer on and thanks to Theresa's expert guidance our offer was accepted! We were moved in to our dream home (with pool!) just 2.5 months after landing in the US. This far exceeded my expectations. Theresa went above and beyond and we can't thank her enough for the personal and tailored approach, which was unlike anything I'd ever experienced in the UK. It was an absolute joy to work with her and if you are considering utilizing her services, I can't recommend her enough. There's never any pressure, just a genuine interest in helping you find a home you love. Thank you Theresa!

After my parents passed, I had to sell the home I grew up in in San Jose, CA. I interviewed several realtors but never felt the connection I was looking for. Then I found a flyer, did some research, and called Andy and Ben. From our first meeting I knew they were the right choice -- genuine, trustworthy, and compassionate. They didn't just list the house -- they managed the entire process from start to finish. They coordinated: Cleanup and preparation Repairs and construction work Landscaping and restoration of my mom's garden Contractors and scheduling A detailed timeline with constant updates They provided a clear plan showing exactly what would be done and when, and they stuck to it. There were no surprises and they kept me informed every step of the way. Even more impressive, there were no upfront costs -- everything was handled through escrow at closing, which removed a huge amount of stress during a difficult time. Because of their networking and local knowledge of the area, they found a direct buyer before the home even hit the market, and it sold at top dollar! Andy and Ben truly went above and beyond. They treated my parents' home with care and respect, even planting beautiful new flowers in my mother's garden. I'm incredibly grateful for how smoothly they handled such an emotional process. I would recommend them without hesitation to anyone who wants professionals that genuinely care and take full responsibility for the job. -- Joe R.
