I couldn't have asked for a better experience working with Kenny. Extremely knowledgable, friendly, and personable, and I never once felt like he had anything other than my true best interest at heart. I was a first-time home buyer, and never felt overwhelmed or lost when working with him. Truly everything you could want in a realtor! read more

Kenny was incredible. He tailored our search to our family's needs and dreams. And he had all the right skills to help us land our dream house in a very competitive market and without overpaying. We're recommending him to all our friends. read more

Cliff and Caley from the Willowmar team were incredible to work with. They were proactive, knowledgeable, and kind from Day 1. They did thorough analysis of what wanted and what property we were interested in, and their expertise and guidance helped make it happen. They helped us work with the right brokers to close on a very tight timeline and we couldn't be more grateful to them for making our city dreams come true! read more

I honestly can't say enough good things about the Willowmar team! Connie helped me buy my very first condo in San Francisco years ago, and as a first-time buyer, I could not have asked for a kinder, more patient guide through the process. Fast forward to today, I just worked with Connie again--this time with Bran and Ani as well--to sell that condo and buy our new home in Castro Valley. From start to finish, they were everything you hope for in a real estate team: professional, patient, thoughtful, and always looking out for me. They do their homework, give honest advice, and truly advocate for your best interests. Never once did I feel pressured; instead, I always felt supported and in the best possible hands. I'm so grateful for their guidance through such big life milestones. I would recommend Willowmar to anyone without hesitation! read more

I can't say enough good things about our home‑buying journey with Willowmar Real Estate, especially working alongside Kenny. This was my second time purchasing a home, and the difference in experience was night and day compared to my first. From start to finish, the process was incredibly smooth and actually enjoyable. Kenny was the epitome of a professional yet personable agent. He took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for, was always available to answer our questions, and provided invaluable insights about each neighborhood and property we considered. His expertise made us feel completely at ease. What stood out most was the level of care and attention to detail. Kenny didn't just help us find a house; he made sure we found our house--the one that felt like home the moment we stepped inside. He navigated every step, from negotiating terms to handling paperwork, with a calm confidence that turned what could have been a stressful process into an absolute breeze. For anyone looking for a real estate agent who truly goes above and beyond, I wholeheartedly recommend Willowmar and Kenny. read more

The Willowmar Team is incredible. They make it look effortless, despite all the challenges that come with navigating the CA real estate market. If you want expert guidance, next level service and to partner with incredible people, Cliff Connie Kenny and Brandea deliver. read more

Connie and Clifford were amazing to work with. They were personable, professional, and knowledgeable from the very beginning. I had so many embarrassingly basic questions about the home buying process, each of which were met with prompt and helpful answers that never left me feeling silly for asking. I truly feel lucky to have come across them and their team, I only have had wonderful experiences with each of them! read more

The Willowmar team is absolutely amazing -- you can't go wrong with them! I worked with Caley and Cliff for a few months in my search for a condo in the city, and I truly appreciated how this felt like a partnership every step of the way. There was never a moment when I didn't feel comfortable bringing up concerns, knowing they would be knowledgeable and honest about whatever we were facing. I always felt I'd get their unfiltered perspective, which I really valued. The combination of their expertise, genuine kindness, clear communication, and a strong referral from one of my best friends sealed the deal. As I sit here in my new home, I can confidently say this was a very successful partnership :) read more

Brandea, Adeline and the Willowmar team went above and beyond helping us find our first house. We initially were looking in SF and Brandea was extremely helpful in getting a pulse of the city market and taking us to view various condos across the city. After we decided to expand our search to the Bay Area, Brandea connected us with Adeline who was just as helpful in helping us search, answer questions about the market, and was there for us the entire offer and closing process. They both helped turn what is a potentially stressful process into quite a joy and positive experience. Would highly recommend both of them of them and the Willowmar team in general! read more

Clifford Tsang is as good as it gets. He's super knowledgeable, caring, and smart (he's a UC Berkeley grad). Highly recommend

Bought our first house with Willowmar in an extremely competitive neighborhood. Have nothing but the best experiences with the team and really loved working with Adeline and team! read more

The team at Willowmar is absolutely incredible. We worked closely with Adeline for over 8 months (!) before buying our home in the peninsula, and could not be happier with our experience. Sometimes in life you feel blessed for coming across someone, and cannot possibly imagine how a situation would have turned out without them. This is exactly how my wife & I feel about Cliff, Kenny, Adeline, and the entire team at Willowmar. You would be hard pressed to find elsewhere the level of care, professionalism, detail orientation, and real estate expertise that Willowmar offers. From day one, Adeline helped us think through our various options, pros & cons of buying in different Bay Area cities, and numerous budgetary considerations. We were admittedly indecisive and at times all over the place, but she was 100% supportive and understanding throughout. As someone who works in finance, I was blown away by the analytical rigor with which Willowmar approaches real estate transactions... all of their advice was always rooted in deep industry expertise and knowledge of the Bay Area real estate markets, alongside lots of data. Communication was always seamless and super fast. Adeline made herself available at all times, including evenings and weekends, and was incredibly responsive. We made a total of 5 offers before being the winning bid, so this involved several late nights on the phone with her. Negotiating in the final stages of a home purchase is tricky, and Adeline guided us like a true professional. Each time she built close relationships with the listing agent teams to position our offers competitively, and her strategic and nuanced insights into the transaction dynamics proved invaluable. Perhaps most importantly, over the entire 8 months we always felt like Adeline and the Willowmar team truly cared. They always had our best interests at heart, and treated us as much more than just clients. Buying a home can be a stressful and frustrating process but the Willowmar team made it infinitely more bearable for us. Adeline--Steph & I are grateful to have had your help with our home search and lucky to now call you a friend! We could not recommend Willowmar more highly and will undoubtedly be going back to them for any and all of our future real estate needs. read more

Another update: I had the pleasure of working with Caley to find a tenant for an open unit. Caley was timely and efficient - making suggestions to improve my apartment operations, quickly posting my listing, reviewing tenants and navigating a new rental agreement swiftly. Caley is an excellent communicator and I am so thankful for her help in making a stressful process extremely smooth and easy. She shared ideas and proposals with an open mindset and I always felt I could go in a different direction. I'm very impressed with Caley's work and look forward to working with her again! Thank you Caley and Willowmar! read more

The team has deep knowledge and expertise of the home-buying/selling process. I also attended Cliff's free RE investment class, it was super informative and helpful. Highly recommended! read more

Cliff and Adeline did an amazing job assisting us with optimizing our property taxes, using their expertise in different counties across the Bay Area. They were thorough in their research with comparable properties in our county, and were overall very responsive and a pleasure to work with throughout the process. I highly recommend working with them and the Willowmar team! read more

Working with Adeline and The Willowmar Team was a great experience. Leasing our property went smoothly, even with the renovations needed to get it rental-ready. Adeline's guidance made each step clear and straightforward, keeping the process stress-free. The Willowmar Team is reliable and professional. If you're looking for a real estate team that makes leasing, buying, or selling easy, Adeline and The Willowmar Team are the way to go! read more

As first-time homebuyers, we are so glad to have met and worked with Brandea. She skillfully led us through the process, learning our wants and needs and efficiently answering our many questions. Her communications were frequent, timely, and compassionate, and we were always made to feel valued--never ignored. She has an expert's knowledge of the market and its changing conditions, and she's also such a lovely person, caring and interested in who we are as people, not just as buyers. She took the time to learn our personal stories and used that to form a genuine connection with us and find a home for us that was as perfect as perfect could be. We can't say enough good things about Brandea and the team that supports her. read more

My experience with Willomar (Cliff) has been fantastic. While I haven't bought or sold properties with Willomar thus far, I've consulted with them on multiple occasions to discuss investing strategies, share experiences, discuss the bay area market and network. Cliff is not only a great agent, he helps the whole community by hosting real estate events and connecting like-minded people. read more

Vanessa Gamp and her team are truly the best. I worked with them as both a buyer and a seller and would do it again in a heartbeat. They helped me navigate the process of simultaneously buying and selling a property, and did so with professionalism, ease and great energy. read more

So knowledgeable on real estate -- truly experts on market dynamics and the end-to-end home buying & selling journey. Easy to access, respond to questions right away and extremely friendly! read more

Whether you're purchasing your first home, or looking to invest in real estate, Willowmar Real Estate is the best at what it does. The team's knowledge and expertise have helped me better understand what I should be looking for in an investment property, and how I can achieve the ambitious goals I have set for myself. Cliff is amazing! It's great to work with someone who is also an investor and can share his first-hand experience in investing while also offering valuable advice that will help you be successful in your real estate journey. Thanks for all your help, Cliff and team! read more

We worked with Phoebe and Cliff at Willowmar to purchase our first home in Oakland. They were delightful, personable, thoughtful to our needs, and very knowledgeable. They made, what seemed to us, a seemingly daunting process, a fun and seamless experience. They promptly answered our questions and quickly got the ball rolling for us, which is very important in this competitive market. I appreciated Phoebe and Cliff's earnestness and the time they took to review, in great detail, multiple disclosure packets with us. I highly recommend their services. Thanks Willowmar, Phoebe, and Cliff! read more

We worked with Cliff at Willowmar during our East Bay house search. He was a pleasure to work with, and was always available to answer our anxious and concerned first time homebuyer questions. After we pivoted to searching in the peninsula, Cliff introduced us to Bran, and together they helped us buy our very first home! They helped us navigate lenders, insurance, scary documents, and most importantly: were spot on with their estimate for the house. We can't recommend Willowmar enough. read more

Great experience working with Willowmar! The house search process can be stressful and overwhelming, but Willowmar makes it easier. They are detail and data oriented, proactive with communication, accommodating and easy to work with. They take care of things end to end (even after the purchase / sale is done) and are well connected in SF to other vendors. read more

I used Willowmar to both sell my house in Upper Rockridge and buy a new house in Berkeley- I Cannot recommend Willowmar enough! Willowmar's marketing strategy ended up pocketing us 30% more than anticipated and got us to market within 1 week. For our new home - Cliff and Youri helped us search for pockets of value within the highly competitive Berkeley/Oakland Hills market. Our home purchase closed in 18 days and appraised at 300k more than offer price! Willowmar for the win! read more

This housing market is very competitive and scary but I cannot tell you how grateful and comforting it was to have Cliff guiding us along the way. Cliff is extremely knowledgeable and above all, friendly. He went out of his way to answer all my questions about purchasing our home. Using his expertise about the market, Cliff gave us helpful advice on how to structure our offer so it's competitive. I am happy to say that we were able to close and this is a huge sigh of relief! I was so satisfied with the process that I'm tasking Cliff and the Willowmar team to help me look at multifamily investment opportunities. They've also been really knowledgeable about real estate investing. Our chats naturally lead to how they can add value for me and what I'm looking for so it just felt so natural to have them as advisors. All in all, my experience with Cliff and the Willowmar team has exceeded my expectations. It's just simply too time consuming to shop around to find the right team so the purpose of this review is to help all future home purchasers save time! Look no further; this team has it all! read more

Is it possible to give more than five stars because it's not enough. Brandea helped us sell our Walnut Creek house and I was blown away by the frequent updates, incredible marketing, and work that her team did without us there (we had already moved out of the area). If we were selling another home or buying would work with Brandea and the team in a heartbeat. We've worked with other agents and companies and truly nothing compares to the experience with Brandea and the Willowmar team. read more

Ani and Kenny were both super helpful throughout the whole process of me purchasing my first home. They were able to answer my numerous questions to the best of their ability. Ani was thorough and attentive, and worked hard by doing her due diligence when going through the disclosures of interested properties, and she also helped to make sure I prioritized what was important to me before making an offer. I highly recommend Ani and the Willowmar Real Estate Team, because of their attention to detail, and thoroughness to find the right home for you. They were a real pleasure to work with! read more

The Willowmar team is friendly and highly professional. They deliver prompt responses and have impressive knowledge in the local market. Definitely recommended! read more

We started working with Connie in January to find our first home here in San Francisco. Within just a few weeks, she helped us make sense of how to interpret disclosures and understand price trends in our desired neighborhoods. Throughout the process, she was quick and thorough in her responses. Eventually, we found ourselves far along in the offer process before coming to the difficult realization that this stage of our lives would be best spent on the opposite coast with our families. Connie surprised us with her warmth and support in this moment and she went above and beyond to help us recoup costs, even though she was not obliged to do so. We wholeheartedly recommend her and the Willowmar team. read more

Cliff Tsang volunteers with me to educate buyers and investors in the Bay Area to help them understand the many various options out there for them. We often host meetups together to gather people to get together and ask questions, share knowledge. Cliff is super knowledgeable and always patient to answer questions. He'd give his honest feedback and tell us concerns he'd have. He'd walk us through different ideas on what we could do with certain properties, explain some struggles that we might face, and help us with understanding what some of the loan options can be used to purchase a particular property. I love working with Cliff because he's also an experienced investor himself, so he sees things that some of the lesser experienced folks sees and watches out for them. Would highly recommend Cliff and his team to anyone who needs to buy or sell in the Bay Area. :) read more

Cliff and the Willowmar team helped me find the perfect home in Oakland! Their extensive knowledge of the neighborhoods in East Bay was invaluable as someone moving from SF. After touring many single family homes and condos, they provided a ton of guidance to help me find a condo that could work as a rental property later on. They helped me think through what renovation costs might look like, then negotiated firmly to make sure I was getting a fair price. I would highly recommend this team - from their communication style to their extreme care, they made me feel comfortable and confident navigating a big decision like buying a new home. read more

Buying your first home can be a nerve racking experience, but Cliff helped us navigate the process smoothly. We got it done! Cliff listened to exactly what we wanted in a home, and showed us the type of homes we were looking for within our budget. Couldn't have asked for a nicer guy as well. Highly recommended! read more

Connie and Kenny are a dynamic duo you will love working with. They are warm, caring, and so very thoughtful. I appreciated their responsiveness throughout the entire process and their willingness to answer all of my very-basic questions about home purchasing. As a first time homebuyer, I relied on their guidance to make my purchasing decisions, and it was important for me to feel they are accessible. Though my partner and I had originally thought what we wanted was a single family home that we can resell in a few years, what we *really* needed was a low-maintenance property located in a walkable neighborhood that fit our lifestyle. Within a few showings, Connie figured this out and showed us a beautiful townhouse in the perfect neighborhood and I immediately fell in love with it. Kenny was so patient in explaining and holding my hand through the closing process, and was a true advocate for me throughout. Highly recommend! read more

We worked with Phoebe to purchase our first home in Oakland. It was a unique situation since we were purchasing the home we were renting. Phoebe and Cliff went above and beyond to help us navigate the whole process and made us feel comfortable and at ease. Phoebe was super prompt to answer any questions I had and was on top of it every step of the way. I highly recommend their services. Thanks Willowmar! read more

The Willowmar team was very knowledgeable and hands-on while aiding me through the home ownership & real estate investing journey. They are very approachable, friendly, and responsive, and I thoroughly enjoyed my interactions with them. The teams' breadth of knowledge across different domains (first time home buying to investing) was very helpful. I would highly recommend this team. read more

I've bought property around the country but have always felt intimidated when it comes to the crazy SF real estate market. A friend introduced me to Cliff, and I couldn't have asked for a better introduction to the Willowmar team. Professional, diligent, and friendly, I found every conversation with them since to be really insightful as I learned about market trends in the Bay Area. Their methodical approach to the home-buying process helped me set my emotions aside and feel confident in my negotiations. When looking into a new market, one particular consideration I always take into account is how well-connected the real estate agent is to other local industry resources. In my experience, home-ownership is never strictly just home-buying. Contracting, maintenance, and solid property management are also major components to making an investment property succeed. Fortunately, the professionals that I've connected with through Willowmar have been great, and I continue to use them when I'm not around. It's been a real pleasure working with Willowmar and I look forward to many awesome years together! read more

They are extremely professional, respectful of your time, and address even the smallest detail that you may have a questions or concerns about. Their warm approach to real estate is the golden touch that the real estate market could use more of and will definitely make your home buying process less stressful than it needs to be. You can't go wrong with the personable touch without losing the level of professionalism that is needed to get a deal done! read more
