This our first time had Melanie as our real estate agent. If I’m gonna use three words to describe her it would be knowledgeable, communications and efficiency. She found properties that meet what we looking for. She incredibly communicative, promptly answered our calls and emails even late after hours. Keeping us updated on the progress. Her efficiency was remarkable. House views, paperwork’s for offer and acceptance offer by seller all within 3 days. Well done Melanie, and Thank you!!!

I just recently had the pleasure of working with Melanie as my real estate agent to sell my Condo in San Jose, CA. Melanie went above and beyond in every situation that came up. I was very nervous about the market in the area that my condo was in. Melanie did an excellent job marketing and researching in this area. Melanie’s communication skills are phenomenal and I never had to wonder what was going on. Melanie has great relationships with contractors and staging companies. I highly recommend Melanie for any of your real estate needs.

It was a pleasure working with Jane in selling my mom‘s condo. She took a lot of stress off of my plate by assisting with getting the property renovated, spiffed up and cleaned before listing. Her staging job was beautiful. The property showed really well. The whole transaction, from start to finish, was pretty seamless. She’s professional, good natured, easy to work with, and a lot of fun. I highly recommend Jane for any of your real estate needs.

Elena is an absolute gem! My Orinda home was not an easy seller. I had lived there for 30+ years and never thought that I would need to sell it. I was both unprepared and emotionally distraught. Elena made the sale seamless. She helped with every step. She kept me up-to-date, informed and made sure that I fully understood every step of the process. I could not recommend her more. I would’ve been lost without her.

We were thrilled to have worked with Jill Balazs to buy our first home in California. Her extensive knowledge of the market and keen attention to detail exceeded our expectations. We particularly appreciated how Jill showed us homes within our budget and in the areas we were interested in. The entire process felt smooth and stress-free, thanks to her clear communication and support. We highly recommend Jill Balazs to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and supportive realtor.

I can’t thank Ruth and her team enough for the outstanding, over-the-top job they did representing the sale of my late Mother’s condo in Rossmoor. The condo needed full interior updating in its flooring, kitchen, and bathrooms. Actually much more because the unit was 48 years old and hadn’t been maintained.
Ruth had an amazing array of service providers and contractors at her disposal, yet she was also hands-on herself working on various improvements. She has other secret weapons: Her husband, Bill, a certified horticulturist (and amazing interior designer) brought his extensive knowledge and design tastes to make the garden and interior look fantastic. Her behind-the-scenes support staff, Linda, was also thorough and professional. Ruth also recommended a staging company that brought top dollar to the sale through the use of well placed rugs, furniture and artwork.
In under 3 months time Ruth managed and oversaw all the work that needed to be done, put the home on the market, accepted an offer (with our approval) for $300,000 over asking price (!!), and closed escrow on June 27, 2025. Truly remarkable.
The fully-staged condo was beautiful (https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/3399-Rossmoor-Pkwy-Apt-2_Walnut-Creek_CA_94595_M16534-32017)
Ruth is a consummate real estate professional and genuinely cared about meeting my needs. She worked well with the Buyer’s real estate agent. She exceeded my every expectation. I highly recommend Ruth Eddy for your real estate needs.

Jessica and Lisa were our agents to sell two properties, one developed and one undeveloped (vacant land) in Lafayette, CA. Their work for us was outstanding and thorough, and we whole-heartedly recommend them to sellers or buyers in the greater Bay Area.
DD
Jane has extensive knowledge of the real estate market in the area. She is very helpful in getting your home ready to show to its best advantage both inside and out. She set up and helped me run a garage sale, found local college students to do yard cleanup as well as an electrician and handymen/painters to update the interior. She has a great eye for color schemes and knows what is appealing to buyers in the area. In addition, she brought in two "stagers" to give advice, listened to my ideas, and worked with me on my scheduling so that everything came together smoothly. I had already left the area when my house went on the market and she kept me well-informed and executed the sale efficiently and in a timely manner. Jane is not only a dedicated, efficient and knowledgeable real estate agent, she is also a kind person and I am lucky to be able to count her as a friend.

Kim Pierce is not a Realtor. Kim Pierce is THE Realtor. Over the course of selling my home, she has been THE invaluable resource, THE invaluable friend, THE informed Realtor. She has been my Realtor twice and I will only work with her going forward. She is understanding of my family's time and privacy and gets the job done. She's simply the best!

Sherry and Adam went above and beyond to help my mom sell her home in Rossmoor for top dollar and in record time. They are a great team and I would highly recommend them to everyone!
PS
Jessica and Lisa did a great job for us in our house purchase. They were very available and accessible for every occasion where we needed them throughout the house search and the purchase process. They provided tremendous support in all aspects of the purchase logistics, and were able to draw on many resources to resolve issues as we proceeded. We were extremely satisfied with their considerate and friendly demeanor, and attention to our needs. We would enthusiastically recommend them.

My mom and I worked with Jess and Lisa on selling her home of 60 years and my childhood home. They were very direct, responsive, communicative and sensitive to the emotional aspects of selling the home. When issues arose during the process they were able to pivot quickly and find solutions. They really want to do the best job you to ensure you're happy with the end result. Thanks Jess and Lisa!

We worked with Lauren over the course of 2 years before ultimately finding our perfect home in Orinda. She was patient, communicative and proactive with recommendations/listings and provided honest feedback/perspective on the quality of homes, neighborhood, and whether she felt it was a right 'fit' given our criteria/non-negotiables. We're so grateful that she was able to leverage her strong real-estate relationships and institutional knowledge to land our dream home in a competitive area. Thank you, Lauren!
MC
Highly recommend. Jess is a fantastic agent. We always felt like we were in great hands, as Jess walked us through every step in the process as first time home buyers. She was patient, thoughtful, and thorough. More than that, she made a very stressful process fun and easy.
KF
Jess and Lisa really knew how to time the sale. They pushed to get my mom’s house on the market before others in the neighborhood and priced it well. We’re now seeing similar homes listed for less—and even dropping their price. Please thank them for their smart strategy and great timing!

We really wish there were more than five stars to give Adam and Sherry—they truly deserve it. Whether you're buying or selling, they are the go-to real estate agents. With several decades of experience, they helped us navigate the process of finding the right home with confidence and ease.
Adam and Sherry were both professional and personable, always putting our best interests first. They went above and beyond, meticulously evaluating every property we explored to ensure no detail was overlooked. Their dedication, insight, and care made all the difference. We couldn’t have asked for a better team by our side.

Adam and Sherry were great to work with! They were professional, friendly and great listeners: they took a lot of time with us discussing what we wanted and the steps needed to get through the entire process, from looking at houses to going through disclosures to negotiations with sellers. Both were incredibly knowledgeable about the locations we were interested in and gave great advice about amenities and areas of concern for individual properties. Sherry and Adam's differing areas of deep expertise really gave a well-rounded perspective while looking for a home, and it was great having two agents available for questions and showings. They also helped us work with our budget to get the best possible deal and we were able to buy a truly wonderful house in a great neighborhood. I would absolutely recommend Sherry and Adam to anyone looking to buy or sell a home .

Selling a home can be an emotional and cumbersome process. Adam and Sherry work as a great team to handle all the elements involved in preparing and selling your home. They are thoughtful, punctual, resourceful, detail oriented, good listeners, reliable and know the market. It’s not often that people meet or exceed my expectations. Adam and Sherry did both. If I were to sell another home in this market, they would be my number one choice.

Lauren and Kaaren were instrumental in putting me in my very first home. Their deep knowledge of the Lamorinda market, prompt communication, and prudent guidance in putting together the best possible offer led to success. I always felt I was in good hands every step of the way with Lauren and Kaaren.
LB
It has been nothing but a great experience, meeting Jess and Lisa, and experiencing the fast pace of real estate in today’s world. Since our first meeting, we were prompted each and every step of the way as to what was their next plan to prepare the property for sale. These ladies are ready for business - they moved much faster than we expected, but we were very glad we listened to their professional guidance. Both Jess and Lisa took everything into consideration, and brought us an acceptable offer within 48hrs. Thank you ladies, you're very much appreciated during this very bitter sweet transaction.

Kaaren is an excellent realtor. She was so helpful in preparing our condo for sale. Her team was instrumental in remodeling, cleaning and staging. The photos were outstanding. The sale was smooth and constant communication throughout the process was received. Highly recommend Kaaren and her team!

Sherry and Adam brings the most value out of anyone else I have worked with in the Realtor's space. They are truly passionate about their work. Expect them both to geek out on challenges that one would normally find stressful. They really care about our family. They helped us with a recent purchase of a new home and then the sale of our prior home and everything went extremely smoothly.
