Bob and Berta are great to work with! I have bought and sold 4 houses with them over 20 years. They are there with you every step of the process. They are kind and respectful to the other agents, contractors and inspectors they work with. I highly recommend them for either buying or selling a home.

I want extend a heartfelt "THANK YOU" to Jeff Cole and Ed Bangle for your hard work in getting my new house and selling my other (old) house to the finish line. Your extra effort to see my sale/buy thru exemplifies not only your professional abilities but what a class act you are on a personal level as well. I would not hesitate for one second to recommend you and your firm to anybody. Thanks again Jeff and Ed, you are the BEST!

Kevin and Jeff were tremendous helping us navigate through the mass of paperwork and guiding us every step of preparation and sale of our home of 50 years. It sold in 4 days with their years of experience and so many above and beyond helps.
We would recommend them to anyone. They are truly the best and our experience with them was stellar. Their communication with us was as near as a mobile phone and very timely.

Kevin & Jeff are the types of realtors that go the extra mile to make sure you will have a good experience. I used them to sell a condo in San Jose, but because I live out of state I needed a lot of extra help and they were very helpful every time I needed it. They would meet with people to get keys, meet with inspectors, helped me sell my furniture, etc even if it was outside the scope of typical realtor duties and very inconvenient. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend them.

Bob and Berta are great to work with. We have bought and sold 2 houses with them and have now moved out of the area. They are there every step of the process and when they aren't available Ed Bangle was there to carry on with the process. We highly recommend them for either buying or selling.

Jeff and his group helped us to find and buy a perfect home during last 10 months. During these days, he has waited for us to find with proper informations on the market and kept giving us appropriate advices which seem fit for us. When we finally found one, he responded and helped us ASAP for submitting offer to that house 3 times, and finally we get the home we've dreamt. During these processes, he cares that we're comfortable with everything and there's no push. I'd like to recommend him and his group to all my friends who want to buy their dream house!

Jeff Cole was very instrumental to me when looking for a new home. He was very supportive, patient, and understanding to my needs and desires. He was always available to me when I wanted to do a walk-thru of a home that was on the market. He never questioned my decisions but was always prepared to keep looking until I could find the right one. He continued to show me new listings that might match my criteria. I would recommend Jeff to anyone who is looking for a new home.
SF
Jeff was such a pleasure to work with in finding our new home. He was always available to do a walk-thru with us at a moments notice or answer any question or concerns we had day or night with reassurance and kindness. Jeff was able to find us a home in no time that had everything we were looking for. We are very happy with the outcome and would recommend Jeff Cole to anyone looking to purchase a new home.
DB
We worked with Jeff to find and purchase our new home. Jeff was fantastic, listening carefully to what was important to us, setting up emails and alerts and highlighting homes that he thought could be of particular interest. Jeff accompanied us to multiple viewings, running comps and providing data to help us to gauge whether the property was fairly priced and highlighting other considerations. When we found the right place, Jeff was responsive and effective in communicating offers and providing feedback. As the sale progressed, Jeff was very helpful in explaining next steps, providing recommendations and handling every question we had in a very timely and thorough manner. We couldn't be happier with the service we received and how smooth Jeff made the process work for us. Highly recommended.

Kevin and Jeff just sold our house recently and it had been on the market for a while. We started selling our home with another realtor and it sat on the market for quite a while and during that time we never heard anything and less we called them. When the listing time was up we had Kevin and Jeff list our home. We lived in our home for over 40 years and it was not an easy home to sell. We understood that but they kept us updated and thought of all kinds of ways to market our home. It did sell and we can’t thank them enough for all they did! We would recommend there a group to anyone!

I used to work as a Sales rep for Old Republic Title.
Bob and Berta were our clients.
I observed how thorough they were in handling their transactions.
When we decided to sell our house, there was only one person I knew would do the job right, Berta.
We liked the fact that all the reports were ordered right away. The work that needed to be done was completed before we listed our house.
I would highly recommend Berta as a professional agent.

Jeff and Kevin were a great team to work with in selling my house. The went above and beyond in making sure I knew what was happening and what was expected at all times and gave great advice at each step of the way. They spent extra time and effort to make sure everything came off smoothly and gave me great advice on how to get the best selling price. I really appreciate all they did to make everything work out so well.

I was referred to Ed Bangle from the agent that sold my parents’ home in the East Bay. I was a first time buyer, and Ed helped me purchase a great condo near downtown San Jose. He took the time to explain the process to me, and he is a great listener. He also has a deep knowledge of the Silicon Valley market. I felt as though I was in good hands from the initial meeting to close of escrow. Most of his business comes from referrals, and it’s easy to understand why after you meet him. If you are looking to sell or purchase a home, I recommend that you contact Ed.

Kevin and Jeff Cole helped us sell our home of many years in Cupertino, CA. We couldn't have been more pleased with their support. Their experience, knowledge and assistance were invaluable. Their diligence and honest concern gave us confidence and peace of mind. We would definitely recommend their service to others.

Ed Bangle helped us buy our first home....he went above and beyond to help us close. He is very informative and knowledgeable. When we are ready to sell our home there is no question what realtor we will use. I will recommend him to anyone, if you want an honest, knowledgeable, kind,professional realtor look no further then Ed. He made the whole process quick and easy. I am so grateful for all of the hard work he put into helping us!!!

Jeff Cole was our Realtor when we moved from Los Gatos and we could not have been happier with him and his handling of our sale. He was a friend to start, and when we moved away, he was even a closer friend because of how he handled our sale transactions. I was particularly impressed on how he chose the asking price on the house to start with. It brought good, potential buyers. We liked all of them and they all bid higher than Jeff's asking price. I think Jeff knew that was going to happen.
We would have no hesitation to recommend the Bower Cole Group for help with transacting either a buy or sell for a home --- anywhere.
Ray Bell. Gloria agrees.

Kevin and Jeff helped me find the perfect home when I moved to the Bay Area 4.5 years ago. They spent the time and worked with me to ensure that I found a house that would truly be my home. That is why I also had them represent me recently in the sale of this wonderful property. As always, they did an amazing job of helping me find the right buyers for the right price. I cannot thank them enough!

Berta helped me buy our next home in valley. She was very responsive throughout the process and helped us engaged and informed. Its very important while purchasing a house to go over details in all the reports which she patiently explained us. She also scheduled all the check up at the property, communicated with the buyer for every questions we had. Overall she did a great job and love her energy. I would recommend her to anyone wanting to buy their next dream home.
BK
My husband and I had such an amazing experience working with Berta. We engaged with her to sell an existing property and to buy our next dream home. And throughout our engagement, we found her to be extremely knowledgeable, thorough, grounded, and honest. She took complete ownership of the project, stayed on top things. In both scenarios she had very good grasp of the market to get the most bang for the buck. She sold our property with multiple offers and at a record high price.
She worked equally hard in finding our next dream home in one the finest neighborhoods in the Valley. Must say, she had a very good pulse of what we wanted and nailed it for us. Without hesitation we would recommend her to any serious home buyer- She is a ROCKSTAR!!

Kevin and Jeff recently represented me in the sale of the townhouse they helped me purchase five years ago. They are solid, passionate professionals who know their business very well. Their advice, guidance, and representation provided the safety net I needed to let go of my place and obtain the best result possible. And-they are fun to work with!! High recommend their service.

It's been 30 years since we've been involved in real estate transactions so it was a bit intimidating. Berta did a great job of helping us to set up our house for a sale and guiding us through loan options that would best fit our profile. She was concise in her communication which was always timely and very professional in sorting out other agency issues. She acted as our advocate and continuously pushed for quick and amicable solutions which culminated in a successful sale and a memorable experience. Thanks to Berta and Bob for being our trusted agents.

Bob Bower and Kevin Cole both helped us prepare our house for sale and guided us to final closure. The house needed multiple repairs. With an extensive list of qualified vendors, we were able to quickly select a team to ready the house for sale. We felt comfortable with each vendor choice and fast response.
Bob and Kevin each have over 30 years of real estate experience. That experience was obvious.
We highly recommend the Bower Cole Group to anyone who plans to sell or buy a home.
