Nicki helped sell our condo. She arranged everything for us. From touch up, staging, photos, advertisements, open house to closing escrow. The whole process was simple and well communicated. We sold the house much higher than anticipated, and the highest in the same complex. I will highly recommend Nicki's service.

I highly recommend Nicki. Me and my wife were looking for a new house in 2014, because we think our old house will soon be too small for our baby daughter. My friend recommended Nicki to us. Nicki's aggressiveness helped us a lot. She responds to email really fast, and sets up tours right away. Tours were planned nicely and materials well prepared. During the tour and after the tour, she always gives us honest and very valuable feedbacks of the property, whether good or bad. Once we decide to offer, her market analysis is also very useful and accurate. We found our new house in 3 months. Just in time for our daughter to start walking. After our offer was accepted, she still continued to take care of us really well. Helping us deal with escrow, lender and the seller. Even after escrow closed, she continued to help us with our new house needs. Recommending contractors, landscapers and so on. Our family is really grateful for Nicki's service, and think of her as a friend of our family now. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Nicki to my friends and family. A very trust worthy agent.

We were extremely fortunate to have Nicki Hou as our real estate agent. She was instrumental in helping us find and get the perfect house. In Bay Area's competitive landscape, I'm certain we would not have been successful without her guidance, insight and experience. Throughout the whole process, Nicki was extremely professional, responsive and diligent. She was very considerate and open to listen to our specific needs and requirement. From start to finish, the whole process went very smoothly and we couldn't be happier. I would absolutely recommend Nicki Hou as your real estate agent!

My husband and I first met Nicki at an open house that was one of her listings. Despite the fact that it was not the property for us and we were not quite ready for buying a house at that time, she spent a lot of time sitting with us providing lots of detailed information about the real estate market and helpful tips on purchasing the property in a very earnest way. As our knowledge on the property purchase was barely minimal, her sincere advice and discussion on that day was absolutely helpful and we had no doubt nor hesitation to pick her as our realtor. Since then, up until we finally found our new home, Nicki always had been so professional with extra effort and passion. She is truly knowledgeable, honest, diligent, patient, thorough, reliable, punctual, and what is more, very friendly. I cannot describe enough how wonderful she is. I would definitely work with Nicki again and strongly recommend her.

We feel very lucky to have Nicki as our agent. As a first time home buyer, we didn't exactly know the whole buying process and how to search for the suitable houses at the beginning of our house hunting. Then we met Nicki at an open house, and she proposed a meeting to brief us the whole buying process and also to provide us some useful house searching tools. She was very patient to understand all our needs and pointed us to those areas we might have interests. Most importantly, she is super responsive and easy to reach. No matter by emails, calls and text you can get all the questions solved promptly. I think this is a very crucial factor to distinguish between good and great agents. She indeed did a great job for us and got us a nice house that fits our need. Even after we moved into the house, she still contacts us very often to see how we feel about the house and check we need any support from her. She treats us like friends, not just customers. We highly recommend Nicki!

We bought our first home with Nicki as our agent. She is extremely professional and organized. She was very respectful and tried her best to understand our needs. Although we checked several houses to align our requirements, she took incredible effort to be with us as much as possible and learn about what we are looking for in a house. As first-tome home buyers, we are very jittery and nervous about making such a huge investment. But Nicki calmed us down and explained to us how the bay area real estate works. We are very conservative initially and lost homes by huge margins. She became a great friend and mentor over time and we felt confident making offers. Every seller or seller's agent we spoke to, told us that it was Nicki's organization of documents and a great case put forth helped seal the deal. She was always committed to her job. We would certainly recommend Nicki to other buyers.

Our Joy at buying our first house was further compounded by having Nicki as our Realtor. She helped us define exactly what we were looking for, was extremely knowledgeable about the area and was sure to explain exactly the upside and downside of every home. She was with us even after the house sold, to help us with the sub contractor and home redesign. If I ever decide to buy again, it will definitely be with Nicki

Nicki listed my mother's house in Cupertino in early 2013. This was by far the quickest and easiest real estate transaction I have been through. She was very knowlegeable about the neighborhood and market, and her suggestions on listing price and pre-sale improvements were right on target. She helped oversee the contractors who were fixing last minute issues on the property and staging. The house sold within a week and the transaction closed within a month with no snags whatsoever.

We were very fortunate to have selected Nicki as our real estate agent. She made the process very easy all around. We had a horrible time dealing with our loan agent, but because of Nicki we were able to work around these issues and close escrow without any issues.

She was always very responsive throughout the home buying process. She gave us honest feedback on the houses we visited, never trying to upsell us. She was also very helpful in helping us choose a good offer price.

If we ever buy a house again, we'd definitely choose Nicki as our agent!

Nicki Hou helped us in purchasing our investment property and in purchasing a second home recently. We enjoyed working with her very much. She is well organized in managing every event throughout a transaction; she is proactive in making sure everything is moving forward smoothly; she is a constructive negotiator to get what we want. She pays attention to what we need; she is not pushy; you can count on her to put your priority on the first place; and give you the most practical advices. We enjoyed her service, and most of all, the ultimate result she delivered. We will definitely recommend her to our friends for selling and buyer real estate properties.

My family and I happened to meet Nicki for the first time when we were visiting some open houses in May 2012. When Nicki realized that we were almost neighbors, she offered to tour our house and give us her thoughts on how much we could sell it for. At that time, we had another real estate agent who was going to be helping us sell our house but we agreed to let Nicki come by and give us her thoughts about our house. The following day, Nicki showed up promptly at 9 AM to our house and came prepared with a packet of information about houses nearby that had sold and was able to give us an estimate of what she thought our house could sell for based on her tour of the house. However, we were still not convinced about signing with Nicki because we knew the other real estate agent personally so we were more inclined to go with him. However, Nicki insisted that she let us bring her contractor to give us a few quotes on what it would take to clean up our house before selling it- we agreed. Again, on the day that was planned for us to meet, Nicki showed up promptly with the contractor. Initially, Nicki and the contractor suggested a lot of things to do to fix up the house. However, when we explained to Nicki that we couldn't do all of that because our cash flow was very limited, she really took the time to listen to our needs and helped us come up with the bare minimum that we would need to do in order to get the best sale price for our house. We were very impressed that she actually listened to what WE needed vs. just telling us to spend a lot of money that when she asked us again to sign with her vs. our other realtor, we agreed-- And I can say that my family has not regretted that decision for a second. I cannot begin to express our happiness with Nicki. From day 1 after signing with her, she has truly been responsive to all of our needs and has gone above and beyond for us. We loved that she came prepared to every meeting with a schedule of what needed to be done, had copies of everything for us, and was very prompt in all of our meetings. Furthermore, she was willing to always work with us and make sure we were happy. We ended up finding our own contractor to rip up our carpet and repolish the hardwood underneath and Nicki was excellent in coordinating everything with him and the other two contractors who would be doing work on our house. She made sure that we were constantly in the loop about what would be going on every day and copied us in all emails that we were sent out to contractors. And whenever we did have any questions about what was going on she would always take the time to respond to our emails and phone calls almost immediately. We have never once had a hard time getting in touch with her and we never went unanswered for more than 4 hours! To us, that is excellent service.

It took my family exactly 3 weeks to get our house ready to sell and we could not have done it without Nicki's help and coordination. We actually finished a week in advance because she was so diligent in making sure everything ran smoothly and that everyone did their work on time. She was also great about putting together all of the selling information that we needed and making sure my parents signed all the appropriate paperwork so that everything would be ready for the buyers as soon as we put the house on the market. When it was the week of open house, Nicki did an EXCELLENT job in marketing our house. She held a separate brokers only tour on the Thursday before open house and then hosted a friends and neighbors night on Friday so that people would start talking about the house and tell their family and friends. During the open house weekend, there were almost 50 distinct groups of people that came to view the house. What was great also was that she constantly kept us in the loop about the open houses- who was interested, how interested they were, and what their concerns were. And whenever she said she was going to follow up with a certain perso

Nickie was wonderful during the time we were purchasing the house. She made sure that the property was the one we really want, then worked very hard to help us to buy it. She was very knowledgable and dependable . It was a great experience to work with. I'd recommended to who ever want to purchase their property!
