It has been such a pleasure to work with Anthony to purchase my first place! A very good friend recommended him as professional, proactive and trustworthy. This breaks into action in a few ways: 1. Good communication with a shared spreadsheet on the types of homes that interested me and didn't, so he can learn what I wanted; 2. Good communication leads to honesty and the space to ask questions that help in the long run on what works and what doesn't; 3. Clear understanding and checks in place during negotiations on what the expectation should be at each step, and 4. Lots of resources on where we are in the process, what the step means, and why it's necessary (i.e. title insurance) We had a great time hunting down the right places and coming up with strategies. I could always reach out and ask questions. He also was the one who introduced me to a great lender with the best rates for that time (he recommended several and I settled on the one that gave me the best rate)! Best thing is, Anthony is someone who wants a long term relationship with his clients. All the right incentives are in place to make this relationship work. He'll continue to reach out after the purchase to give helpful advice. Would definitely recommend him for any first time buyer, or for someone who has not yet experienced this type of support/team work with their previous agent(s)! read more

It was a pleasure working with Anthony on our first home purchase. Anthony was patient, and explained the process and the risks very well. He was upfront and honest about the state of the market and how things might change in the future. Anthony was always available. He responded to all our questions promptly and was always ready to help. Anthony was able to help us close soon as well, and was able to tell us the upfront cost for a home including any repairs/fixes that might be needed once you move in. Anthony was able to get us a fair deal (considering the market) and was able to help us avoid bidding wars in a crazy sellers market, by strategizing efficiently. I will definitely be working with Anthony on future property purchases. read more

We are glad our friend recommended Anthony to us as a real estate agent. Anthony helped us find our first home faster than we thought possible i.e. in less than 2 weeks, even though we had a lot of 'must haves' on our list. He is very professional, knowledgable, and easy to talk to. He is also a very good listener and was very responsive to all of our many questions. We highly recommend Anthony! read more

Anthony is my favorite realtor. He's knowledgeable and he always have the clients interest in mind. Anthony yet again helped us with a home purchase that we are so happy with. I would not hesitate to recommend him to any of my friends or families read more

We listed our home back in July with Anthony Chen and he did a great job helping us sell our home. There was a lot of work that needed to be done because we were trying to sell our home before the school year started. Anthony was kind enough to come over, help us paint, help us clean our place, and help us move. Our home was sold within the first weekend and Anthony negotiated a smooth transaction where we were happy, the buyer's were happy, and everyone walked away feeling great about the transaction. If you are a first time buyer/seller, it is very important to have an agent that will walk you through each step thoroughly so you understand what you are getting yourself into. Anthony did a great job making sure we were well informed each step of the way and would highly recommend him. read more

I can't believe it took us this long to write a review about Anthony. We have been working with him for just about four years. He confidently guided us through first-time home-buying, first-time selling, and second-time home-buying. Even as hurdles blocked our path (and they always do), he expertly navigated the storm and made us competitive in this tough market. Anthony is patient, honest, professional, and a great person to work with. I am highly recommending him as your agent. read more

I don't know where to start to rave about what an amazing real estate professional Anthony is. He is extremely knowledgeable, articulate, hard working, timely, a proactive communicator and most importantly knows how to complete a transaction. I handed Anthony keys to a condo that had been a rental for years and we discussed a budget and trusted. Best decision ever. In the era of excuses for the pandemic and supply chain issues in less than 4 weeks Anthony had the property market ready, staged and listed. He personally hosted the open houses and obtained multiple offers. The purchase price was at the top of what we anticipated. Anthony was on top of everything in the escrow process allowing us to close early. Anthony had assisted me in the past with two purchases and this was our first sale. I had been impressed with him as a buyers agent and even more so as the listing agent. He went above and beyond in coordinating repairs, paint, flooring and more with impeccable taste. Thank you Anthony! I would recommend you to anyone on the buying or selling side. read more

Anthony's the best! I'm a first-time home buyer and he was everything you could ask for: patient, knowledgeable, friendly, and proactive. He helped me get a condo in SF that I didn't think was possible and has been super communicative throughout the whole process even after all the paperwork had been signed. Can't recommend him enough! read more

I can't express how grateful I am to Anthony for his expertise and patience with guiding me through the home buying process. I'm so happy my friend recommended Anthony as he was very familiar and had a lot of knowledge of the areas I was looking into and he understood the type of home I wanted. As a first time home buyer, not only was he patient with answering all my questions, he provided recommendations on my home and vendors to use for future home projects. As I had no experience with buying a home and all the other complex rules around it, Anthony was very communicative throughout the whole process and I appreciated his ability to translate all the complicated language associated with escrow, mortgage, inspection reports and more. Truly thankful to have Anthony as my agent and it's a pleasure to share my high recommendations of him. read more

Where to begin! Anthony is truly an amazing person & relator and always had my best interest in mind! He actually asked me what I was looking for in a home and that actually got me asking myself the very same thing. He helped me find the perfect home after grueling months of looking & countless biddings he always stayed positive and would remind me don't worry we'll find the perfect one. He always gave me his honest opinion on every house we looked at together and would always bring up concerns of each house we looked at. I personally guarantee you he goes above & beyond his regular duties to help you out as much as possible, simply the best experience, relator & person their is to help you find the house you are looking for. I consider him family & will go back to him when I'm ready for my next house purchase! read more

We had Anthony as our selling agent through a friend's recommendation. He helped us prepare the house for sale, staged it and kept us updated every step of the way. We didn't have to do much because Anthony did it all for us. read more

As new homebuyers, my wife and I were in search of a real estate agent with both the patience and experience to guide us throughout the entirety of the home buying process. Anthony proved to have a deep and broad understanding of the Bay Area housing market, and was also able to help expedite our mortgage and escrow process due to his many existing relationships. Purchasing a home is an exciting yet stressful time, and we found it invaluable to have a knowledgeable agent who can provide respectful advice to steady our emotions. My wife and I highly recommend Anthony and look forward to establishing him as our agent for future home transactions. Thank you Anthony for all your attention, support, and patience; we love our new home! read more

Anthony was a pleasure to have as our real estate agent. We first met Anthony at an open house where he was the listing agent and we were immediately impressed by his knowledge of the area, his professionalism and his warm personality. After that open house, we knew right away that we want him to be our buyer agent. We looked at houses off and on for a couple of years. Anthony was patient with us the whole time. He was always available to answer questions though text, email, or phone calls. We eventually bought a house with Anthony's help. He guided us through the entire process and was thorough with everything. He even convinced the seller to give us expensive appliances even though they were not included in the contract. This showed that he cares to do the extra work negotiating. I highly recommend Anthony to anyone seeking a professional, knowledgable, well-connected realtor! read more

If you are look for a real estate agent. Look no further, Anthony is the man for the job! We worked with Anthony to purchase our first home in the peninsula area. We interviewed several agents prior to meeting Anthony. When we met him, we knew right away that he is guy we want to work with. He is patient, willing to share his knowledge, and a great listener. Buying a home is exhilarating at the same time incredibly stressful especially in this current competitive market. Anthony was respectful and mindful of our budget. There were a couple of properties that we really liked, and he was honest and upfront in telling us that they were beyond our budget (listing price were deceivingly low) and true enough they were way off. His forthrightness saved us the frustration, time and pain of submitting a bid when the chance of winning is slim. He was incredibly accommodating to our hectic schedules, meeting and providing us private viewing of properties in the late evenings and early mornings. As we learned through this process, you need an agent who understands the market, can represent you well, good negotiator, great people person who can bridge relationships with selling agents/HOA management/mortgage/escrow folks. I am confident to say that Anthony has it all and we are grateful for his help with our first home. read more

Great friendly experience buying our first home in San Carlos. Anthony was good at understanding our preferences and financial situation, and helped guide us through tons of homes in San Mateo / Belmont / San Carlos. He saw most of the homes before giving us private tours, so he was knowledgeable about the properties. He was especially good at estimating renovation costs in order to put offer price in context of total cost. He had a good sense of "real" price vs list price, honed from experience and close contact with seller agents. His predictions were mostly proven true. In a difficult sellers market, he was able to help us get a fair price and avoid a bidding war. read more

Being a first time homebuyer, it can be quite the intimidating experience. I am grateful to have had Anthony help guide me through the buying process with his years of experience & solid expertise. Any questions I had were answered quickly and efficiently. He was committed and stayed positive throughout the entire process and I can appreciate his genuine care for his clients. I am fully confident in referring Anthony to anyone buying or selling in the Bay Area! read more

If I had to buy a home again, I wouldn't hesitate to have Anthony represent us again. Anthony went over all the details of what my wife wanted in our house and always addressed them when we looked at each listing. What was more impressive was the additional detail he added that we didn't even think about. Also, at the negotiation table, I really felt that he was on our side. He fought for what we wanted and was persistent that we walk if we didn't get what we wanted. As a home buyer, new and experienced, you're going to have opinions and predetermined cognition, but I would recommend that you let Anthony in to your world and have him find the right fit for your needs. read more

Anthony represented my family as a buyer, and went above and beyond other real estate agents that I've dealt with. He is very friendly, and spent the time to get to know us. With a keen eye for detail, he helped us narrow down what we were looking for, and found a perfect match for us. We felt he has a deep passion for helping people find the right house. When it came to putting in offers, Anthony didn't push us to overpay and provided great advice for us as first-time homebuyers. It was always easy to get a hold of Anthony, and I never felt in-the-dark while working with him. We will definitely recommend him to all of our friends. read more

Anthony helped us buy our house a few years ago and again most recently to sell the same house. He got it sold being only 11 days on the market and got us a price above asking - we were out of state as well and he handled everything and kept us informed. From our experiences and interactions with Anthony, we can conclude that he is a proven Bay Area real estate expert and professional. He is honest, trustworthy, genuine, reliable, and resourceful. Throughout our buying and selling experiences he provided accurate real estate knowledge, strategic advice, and smooth process guidance. I really appreciated his ability to translate what seemed to be complicated process or paperwork into simple layman's understanding. I also appreciated his way of being blunt, candid, and succinct in conversation. We were glad to have him in our corner working towards our best interest. We bought that house as a family of two and sold it a family of four - he has made a large impact on our lives. It is my pleasure to highly recommend him. read more

Anthony is a consummate professional and really knows the Redwood City market inside out. He was able to give us GREAT advice about where to look and how to put together a successful offer. I'm not exaggerating when I say that he helped us win our FIRST bid! This is after months of unsuccessful attempts with another agent. Another thing I like about Anthony is that he tailors his service to your likes and needs. I personally do not want my real estate agent to be my "buddy" or "spirit guide" (although I would totally have a beer with Anthony, but just in general) who demands tons of my time driving around and trying to upsell me. He is super efficient, respected the spend limits I decided, and hustled when I was ready. I'm sure he's great at helping new buyers through the search process as well. As I said, he knows the market better than any of the other agents I'd spoken with. I look forward to recommending him here and to all my friends who are looking to buy on the Peninsula! read more

Anthony is awesome! For a first time home buyer like me who just moved to the Bay Area less than a year ago, Anthony is a blessing!! In a nutshell, 1) He is always punctual, polite, patient, and professional. 2) He cares a lot about his clients. My 3 year old son adores him! 3) He will educate you thoroughly about everything you need to know about buying a home. 4) He will get you what is best for you, will never rush you to make a purchase and more importantly, will give you his honest opinion. 5) Day or night, he will call you back asap. I recommend him wholeheartedly! read more

Anthony always delivers. When my wife and I were looking for our first home 5 years ago, he was patient, and guided us through all of our questions. He made the process simple, and explained / educated us. To this day, he is still looking for ways to help us become better home owners, and keeping us updated on whats going on in the market. We are now close to considering our next home, and there is no one else I would go to. I highly recommend him. read more

We purchase our first home from Anthony. From the beginning interactions until the end, his level of commitment never went away. To add, it took us almost 2 years to purchased our home.

"Best in class" - Anthony is the best!! I just closed by home on 12/15/2016, with help of Anthony. Approach - Being a first-time home buyer, my wife and I had no clue and bit nervous, but Anthony provided perfect start and him being straight shooter, talks directly in interest of us (client). He is very friendly, understood our requirements, and provides his personal and professional input to kind of help make decision. Negotiation skills - Cannot get better!!; helped reduce $37k on brand new property, and helped get property that my wife and I liked within our budget. He navigated the discussion in direction where seller (in my case) has no choice but to agree with him. Our experience of first-time home buying process was essentially pleasant. Very pleased with him and I highly recommend him for anyone out there looking for a Real Estate Agent. read more

My husband and I were referred to Anthony through a friend who recently decided to leave the real estate professional. Although we were saddened by this, we were extremely happy with Anthony. We were looking to buy our first home and we did not know what to expect. We had a million questions and was pretty skeptical about the bay area market. Anthony was there every step of the way, answered all of our questions, day and night. He was honest with our bids and what we could realistically afford. Anthony felt more like a friend than a real estate agent which made the process so much easier! Anthony was very patient with us as we got extremely frustrated with losing offer after offer. We finally won our first bid and it went extremely smooth, thanks to Anthony! We would definitely recommend him to our family and friends and we wouldn't hestitate to have Anthony represent us when it's time to look for our second home. read more

Anthony is the best Real Estate Agent out there. He went above and beyond for us as our buying agent and found us our perfect home. He listened very keenly to our must haves and budget and never once pressured us to do anything we didn't want to do. That's what I look for a Real Estate Agent; One that listens and then executes. He was always available to go see homes and constantly provided us with updates on new listings. Ask him a million questions and he always patiently responds quickly even if they are repetitive. He also followed up with our loan and insured things were done appropriately and in a timely fashion. That extra step he takes goes a very long way. Our entire home buying process was essentially painless, pleasant and a breeze. Very pleased with him and I highly recommend him for anyone out there looking for a Real Estate Agent. read more

Anthony helped us finding and buying a home for our small family. After looking for almost one year, we finally bought a beautiful house through him. I can say with confidence that Anthony helped us select and buy the right one. As a first time home buyer we weren't aware of many things that needs to be paid attention to. Anthony walked us through every step in the process. In-fact, at times he would go out of his way to meet our needs, and he was always available when we needed him, even after the transaction. If I had to buy another place in the future I would definitely get him on my side!! read more
