Great experience working with Brad from the Deleon Team! We met him casually at an open house, and he never pressured us to sign anything, which we really appreciated. The team is very knowledgeable and clearly takes pride in their work. Their experience with high transaction volume gave us confidence, especially when it came to understanding resale value and property potential. They also offer helpful extras like handyman services and access to a moving van, which made things much easier. Overall, the process felt very natural and stress-free. We're extremely happy with our experience buying in Palo Alto and would definitely recommend Brad and the Deleon Team! read more

Audrey and her team are the real deal. From the first conversation through final paperwork, they were organized, responsive, and genuinely helpful -- the kind of people who make a stressful process feel manageable. What stood out most was how prepared they were. They came in with a clear plan, which made it easy for us to coordinate our own move around it. When it came to prepping the house, they were thoughtful, suggesting only the improvements that would actually move the needle, then connecting us with the right people to execute them. The DeLeon design team's staging felt like it belonged in the house rather than being dropped in from a showroom. It complemented what was already there rather than overwriting it. Closing was smooth, with Audrey and Karen keeping us informed at every step. If you're thinking about listing, call Audrey. We couldn't recommend her more. read more

As sellers, we received truly exceptional service from Michael Repka and his team. Because they are full-time, highly skilled DeLeon employees--not independent agents--their coordination, expertise, and dedication were evident at every step. They approached our sale with a real sense of urgency, meticulous attention to detail, and genuine care in presenting our home in its best light. Michael and the entire team were always available, quick to respond, and consistently clear in their communication, which made the whole process remarkably easy for us. On top of that, they were an absolute pleasure to work with. This is a true Silicon Valley real estate team--whip-smart, market-savvy, and committed to delivering outstanding customer service. And they delivered a very fast sale! We unequivocally and enthusiastically recommend DeLeon Realty. read more

We had a great experience working with Deleon Realty. Francis was our main agent and ensured the entire process ran smoothly. The communication was clear throughout, and the team's ability to stick to the project calendar--from repairs to closing--was much appreciated. A special shoutout to Margie and the design team for their excellent suggestions and for working so well with both their suggested vendors and some of ours. Between the high-quality staging and Francis's work with the buyer agents, the sale was handled very professionally. The team was also very easy to work with throughout the process. Highly recommended for prospective sellers. read more

Recently had the experience of working with the DeLeon Team to sell my house. In the past, I have worked with several more traditional realtors, so I thought I knew the level of service to expect but the DeLeon Team went far beyond that. They have resources and expertise that comes from a very innovative business model. Simply put, they have the right person for every task. Even though it was clear that they had a tremendous team supporting the efforts, it still felt very personal and they were quite responsive to my needs. The quality of their work reflects this expertise. The home prep, the staging, all of the disclosures and the documents were done beyond my expectation. I wholeheartedly recommend them for anyone selling a house in Silicon Valley. read more

Excellent experience with selling our house in Palo Alto, 5 stars all the way. Inspite of a significant disclosure issue, Audrey and team did a great job marketing and staging, and got us $500K over asking. Margie did an excellent job with staging, and has always been super responsive. Karen has also been quite prompt with responses. Unlike some other agents, they pay for staging. Further, they bear the cost of repair labor, and we had quite a bit of it (fully repainting the house, and multiple minor repairs). Overall great experience. They are the leading realtor in Palo Alto, and worth the extra 0.5% they charge over other local agents. read more

Working with Ken DeLeon and the entire DeLeon Team has been the best experience. From the very beginning, Ken's leadership and warmth shine through, you can immediately feel how much he cares about the families he serves. His team reflects that same energy. Alex and everyone we worked with were thoughtful, attentive, and incredibly supportive at every step. They are truly the best real estate team. What meant the most to us was the level of detail and care they put into everything. They handle everything with so much professionalism and kindness. The whole process felt like working with a trusted partners looking out for us, which is a true reflection of Ken's leadership and the culture he's built. I honestly can't recommend Ken and his entire team enough. If you want people who will treat your home journey with the same care and respect they would give their own, you won't find anyone better. read more

We worked with Louisa on the purchase of our forever home in a place as competitive as bay area and she did not disappoint! Louisa was extremely transparent, diligent and fast; from the moment our offer was accepted, she was there every step of the way from getting an issue with the title company resolved to coming to see the house with us over and over again during the escrow period. She is also now my younger one's favorite person! 10/10 would recommend Louisa to anyone looking for a home. She's the best! read more

Buying a home in the Bay Area can feel overwhelming but with Lousia it felt effortless. She maintained complete transparency and provided thoughtful guidance that built trust. Her attention to detail and commitment ensured we felt confident through the buying process. Louisa is dedicated and committed to her client's success! We highly recommend Louisa & DeLeon team! read more

Professional, responsive, and got the job done. Bought a house this year with Deleon. Bradley was an excellent agent.

Alex Lewicki was an amazing, incredibly supportive realtor. He worked with us for over a year to find our dream home and we were able to purchase it for 100k below asking through some skillful negotiating. Several times he helped us to steer clear of a bad real estate investment when he could have made a quicker, easier sale early on. He was so quick in all of his responses and his detailed, thoughtful way of presenting information made this process so smooth. Even after we bought he has been super supportive in helping us settle in, finding out who did the contract work in the home, and helping us find the paint colors for our home. If we ever need to buy or sell a home again (hopefully not), we'll go with Alex! read more

DeLeon Realty was invaluable in preparing our house for sale. We then accepted what appeared to be a great offer, but there was a glitch on the buyer's end. Through the use of the free legal services from Integra Law Group of DeLeon Realty we were able to complete the sale, receive the price we were expecting, and still only pay 3% commission. The free legal services continued after escrow closed and would have included representation at mediation if we had needed that. DeLeon Realty made it all easy. read more

We met ken DeLeon at his open house few months ago. After a long conversation with him, we recognized he is a super smart and very experienced agent. We were lucky to have him as our buyer agent. Whenever we went to an open house, every agent knew him. We could not be happier with his great service. He was never pushy, no pressure at all. He is a very knowledge analyst and he knew the market very well. His partner Matt is also provided a lot of valuable insights on construction and remodeling. Two of them worked well to help us to find our dream home. 10 years ago, we did not use their agent to buy our home. This time we did not make a mistake. read more

We are going to be DeLeon Realty's clients for any and all future real estate needs, and not just because of their hypercompetence handling home purchases and sales. Their knowledge is far broader than any other realtors, covering real estate law, taxation, investment analysis, and more. This means they can help clients with much more than buy/sell transactions, long after the sale date, aiming to build a lifelong relationship. Their fanatical commitment to client satisfaction is almost unbelievable. We worked with Ken DeLeon (founder) in 2019 as our buyer's agent to find a site where we could build our new home. He helped us get into a highly desirable Palo Alto neighborhood, and we found working with him to be both enjoyable and educational. Three years later we worked with Michael Repka (CEO) to sell our previous home, and he got us an excellent price despite a very tough market that was declining rapidly due to peak mortgage rates. A year later, we reached out to Ken and Michael to ask whether they could recommend a good real estate lawyer to help us appeal an unreasonably high property tax bill for our newly built home. We knew already of Deleon Realty's legal expertise, from their custom of hiring experienced lawyers to staff a team of realtors, hence we fully trusted their recommendations. We were quite taken aback when Michael replied with an offer to have their own in-house legal team represent us, saying the firm takes pride in going the extra mile for their clients. Not only that, he offered us this service at no charge! This was astonishing, given that we were estimating more than $20k in legal fees. We tried, but could not persuade the firm to accept any payment! It was all quite staggering, but we quickly and gratefully accepted the offer, knowing their impeccable qualifications. We worked with their top lawyers and in-house appraiser (Colette, Alexander, and Lisa) to prepare our case for the appeal hearing over the course of several months, during which the Santa Clara county's tax assessor office tried to intimidate us in various ways to force us to withdraw the appeal. They inflated our valuation even further using outrageously expensive "comparable properties", as they have the power to do, and threatened an "increase letter" to raise our annual property tax burden for life. The DeLeon team encouraged us not to back down in the face of such tactics, explaining how they would prepare the strongest possible case for the appeals board. The team supported us in these ways at every step, including recommending professional appraisers, handling all calls and correspondence with the county, and compiling a truly impressive body of evidence in our favor. They assembled a 200-page tabbed folder to present at the hearing, with detailed rebuttals of the county's assessment, charts for market trends, professional appraisals, color photos of our property and comparable properties, their sale timelines, a map showing how distant the county's so-called "comparable" properties were from ours, and timelines showing how they were sold when the market was much higher vs the valuation date for our home, which is the date on which construction was completed. The volume and quality of their prep work for the hearing exceeded anything we could have imagined, including thoroughly studying the rules in the appeals manual (170 pages), attending several appeal hearings in person, researching the backgrounds of board members, and personally visiting a dozen or more properties comparable to ours in order to verify their valuations. Team members, including Michael, went above and beyond any reasonable expectations, putting in many unpaid extra hours to assure us of a win, and doing more than we could have hoped for had we gone instead with a high-end legal firm charging top dollar. All this prep paid off. The appeals board members were visibly impressed by this 4-member team's combined years of experience as attorneys, appraisers, and realtors, and also by the professionalism with which all the evidence was presented. Michael personally delivered closing arguments. The board came back after some weeks of deliberations with a decision basically agreeing with our much lower valuation, directly citing our rebuttals of the county's arguments. It was a resounding and exhilarating win, and we estimate the DeLeon team saved us more than $100,000 in future property tax payments over the next 15-20 years, not to mention more than $20,000 in additional legal fees! This is why our review starts by saying we are DeLeon Realty's clients for decades to come, and their fanatical commitment to lifelong client satisfaction is quite unbelievable. read more

We just had the most amazing experience selling our house. They handled all the details very professionally. We signed the contract mid July and received the funds mid August!!! Thank you Audrey and Nitasha for your time and attention to details and keeping us in the loop with every small update. We enjoyed working with you. read more

We had the pleasure of working with Alexander Lewicki as our buyer agent and successfully secured our dream home in the past year. Working with Alex was a breeze. He is extremely professional, knowledgeable, and patient. Alex communicated effectively with the listing agent, gathering valuable information that helped us make informed decisions. He worked with us to develop a strategic approach and never pressured us to bid higher than we were comfortable with. In the end, we secured the contract at a price below our expectations! Alex was always available to answer our questions and responded to our emails promptly. He also took care of many details involving the title company, loan officer, and seller. We highly recommend Alex if you are looking to purchase a home in the Atherton / Palo Alto area. Give him a call--you won't be disappointed. read more

Maggie was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and supportive throughout the buying process. Highly recommend their expertise!

I worked with Louisa Brunner to buy a house in Palo Alto. She was always fast and patient to respond, and helped solve a lot of problems with quick turnaround. She also discussed the best strategy with us, so we bought the house we really wanted with a good price. I also like Deleon Realty, they are very professional. I like that they have several buyer agents specifically put on the buyer's side and really negotiating for you. Their buyer agent Louisa happily accepted the commission rate set by the seller, compared to some other agent arguing they have to get 2.5% so I have to pay extra commission out of pocket, she is much more helpful. Happy buyers is one of the most important factors in maintaining a healthy real estate market. Kudos to Louisa and Deleon for helping us. Would definitely work with them again! read more

We had a very positive experience working with Bradley and the DeLeon team to buy our home in Atherton. The whole process was smooth. Bradley was exceptionally helpful in connecting us with the right contractors as we went through the home buying process. I would strongly recommend Bradley and DeLeon Realty. read more

We tried in early 2022 to sell our home with a different agent, without success, so we rented it out from mid-2022 to early 2025. Briefly tested the market with the firm who was managing the rental for us in mid 2024, again with no real success. We then found the DeLeon team. They were fantastic on every level. Beautiful staging, pro-active marketing in multiple geographies, well choreographed open houses. Went from listing on March 26 to offer accepted on April 30 to a closed transaction May 28. We were not in California for this entire period as we had moved, and they handled everything seamlessly. Michael, CEO, was personally involved in every step of the way including negotiating with the ultimate Buyer. Ken actively worked with potential buyers to build interest. On every level it was not only professional, it was a delight to work with them. Honest discussions around market dynamics (note that the public markets fell and rose over 3000 points during the period the house was marketed, the DeLeon team were not shaken in the least and kept us sane), clarity for us around each stage in the process, and of course, a positive result. Cannot recommend them more highly. Absolutely the best firm in the Bay Area, bar none. read more

I complained about the harassment in the flyers that I politely asked to stop mailing to our address. It explains the strain in people such as myself made into something else that we are not and our compassion, forced to accept pushed to the brink. If you fit the demographic that deleon reality treats preferably (aka assists selling california out to others that support the name calling of locals such as us). The broker also brags about being lawyer etc this explains the shadiness of what is going in a town I once trusted..... read more

We are so lucky to have our dream house from the professional and warm support from Deleon team! I met Ken for the first time in the open house, His smile let you feel so warm and he is so familiar with neighborhood! Deleon has different groups who can provide professional and efficient advices on seller, buyer, design and legal, etc. After I told Ken that I hope to have a buyer agent who can speak Mandarin, he immediately recommended Maggie Tanzarella. Maggie is so professional and dedicated! Every time we made appointments, she always made detailed preparation and arrived ahead of time. She listens to you first, then acts quickly to get results. she is so patient explaining us every procedure and legal problems, update CMA reports and let us understand what we should do in every process. Maggie is the honest and dedicated realtor you can fully trust! She understand our need and give us straightforward suggestions. Her professional and clam manner let us making our firm decision to have our dream house! read more

Michael and his crew did an amazing job selling our mother's house of over 60 years. They helped (a LOT) with an estate sale, gathering all of the vendors needed to fix the house up, and walked us through the entire process. Communication was superb and they made it stress-free for us. After the improvements and the amazing staging, we had multiple offers after one open house and sold the house for 20% over asking price! I highly recommend DeLeon for your realty needs - they are incredible! read more

Selling a house that has been our family home for 50 years would never be easy, but everyone at DeLeon was superb. Our agent, Audrey Sun, was extremely professional at every turn, but also so kind and cognizant that to me, this was not just a house for sale. It was a special place and mattered a great deal to me. She made the process so seamless and was always available to us in a way that I had not experienced from previous home sales. I absolutely would not hesitate to use them again. I will be referring everyone I can to DeLeon in the future. read more

We had the best experience that we could possibly imagine with DeLeon realty as we prepared to sell our house in Palo Alto. We felt supported the whole way through to the point where we received multiple offers and a quick closing of escrow. The project manager set up a schedule for vendors for home prep, the handyman and his helpers were outstanding. In fact all the people we met on the DeLeon team were professional, personable and supportive. I mentioned 'Team' and I think this is what sets DeLeon apart. Lead by Michael Repka, we never had a gap, a missed communication or anything of concern to us. Towards the end we met the helpful in house attorney and the supportive 'closer' who lead us through the escrow keeping us fully informed. Highest recommendation! read more

Highly recommend the DeLeon team. Very impressed with the attentiveness and professionalism. Audrey (agent), Nitasha (designer), and team were responsive and did a phenomenal job in making sure the house was ready to sell. The end result looked amazing. The whole process was seamless and quickly done. No detail was too small for them. They delivered on all aspects (staging, answering questions, logistics, contracts, one-off requests) resulting in the house selling quickly. Thank you Audrey, Nitasha, and team! You were all wonderful to work with! read more

In December of 2022 my wife and I decided it was time to sell our home in Palo Alto of 30 years. We went through a thorough process of selecting a listing agent. All the agents interviewed were professional. But Michael Repka of Deleon Realty stood out for his knowledge, his demeanor, and his positioning of Deleon. We felt that going with Deleon as our listing agent was the right move. He came into that first meeting with a CMA package that took into account the fact we owned a mid century modern home. From the onset Deleon brings in a Project Manager and goes through all the steps needed to list your home: * Boxing, packing, staging, and an assessment of what repairs are needed to get a home ready for sale. * Vendor bidding and selection for said efforts. Because Deleon's model is so successful, painters, landscapers, etc are eager to bid on a Deleon listing given their volume. * Disclosures with Deleon's in-house legal team. Incredibly smooth, easy, and stress free. And that was only the beginning. * All of these efforts were orchestrated by Michael leading the team. We had heard from competing agencies that Michael was only involved on the periphery. Nothing could be further from the truth. Every phone call, text message, or email was answered in a professional, calm manner. Throughout this whole process we felt that he was an amazing resource who had a team that simply executed at every single level regarding the process of getting our home ready for sale and then sold. At the same time we were buying another home. Michael and his team reviewed our Offer and the Contract on the purchase of our new home and gave us expert advice. Deleon was not involved in the transaction and didn't receive any commission. The Vendors that we selected on Deleon's recommendation were amazing. Their bids for the work needed were well below market rates. Margie, the Project Manager, kept all of them focused to be on time and on budget. This reduced our stress level by an enormous amount. This was topped off by the movers that Deleon recommended. Advantage Moving in Milpitas were incredible! The Deleon Marketing team is phenomenal. Michael had said our home would be on local TV. That happened. The custom web page showcasing our home was simply awesome. This was true for the printed materials. But what really sets Deleon Realty apart from any other listing agent is that Michael has a law degree focusing on Real Estate. Together with his in-house legal team led by Colette Thomason they form a shield for Sellers in situations that require action. This was the case for our home sale. We had over 100 people come through for the Open House. Over 17 parties downloaded the disclosures. This generated 3 offers. Michael masterfully orchestrated this process and we finally settled on an offer that was great for us with the buyers entering into contract. Then the buyers pulled out using Silicon Valley Bank's collapse as an excuse, That is not a valid reason to back out of a contract to buy a home. Michael and Colette put together a plan including a Demand Letter requesting compensation to make us whole. This was done with no contingency fees paid. Zero, nada, zilch! All part of the Deleon package. We got another offer that was slightly less. Within 1 month of accepting that offer Deleon had extracted a settlement from the first buyers who had pulled out. We were made whole and all those proceeds went straight into our bank account! I have asked around and no Real Estate company offers this type of service. The entire team at Deleon led by Michael is professional, pleasant, and thorough. Everyone works together in a cohesive manner. It was an absolute pleasure doing business with them. Describing all this to a neighbor near our Palo Alto home he ended our conversation by saying 'They are just Pros'. I couldn't agree more! read more

Choosing De Leon Realty was one of the best decisions we ever made in our lifetime. Placing your house in the market is not something you do every 10 years. You hope to stay in your house because you love the community, the neighbor, the school and the weather. We wanted a team of realtors who can immobilize a lot of different things, who can handle difficult situations, to help us with the process from the Estate sale, or giving your stuff away, to working with their design team, to prepping the house for repairs and updating the house to look spectacular. We are so thankful that they really cared, from early on we requested Michael to create a Living Trust after the sale. That goal was completed without any problem. The De Leon Team are professionals with lawyers who act on their client's best interests at heart. Now we can rest and enjoy our retirement-thank you to the best realty team in Palo Alto! read more

TLDR - If you are selling your house, look no further than DeLeon. They are the best in the business! Prior to working with Audrey Sun to sell our house, we had hired another agent based on a referral. Unfortunately we weren't able to get to a successful sale. We had previously talked to Audrey and strongly considered DeLeon the first time around. Had it not been the referral, we would have chosen DeLeon. So the second time around, it was a no-brainer to pick the best team based on merit and nothing else. Thankfully, Audrey and Michael Repka were able to sell our house at a fantastic price above our expectations! I won't go into the DeLeon's business model coz they do a far better job explaining it themselves. For us, the biggest advantages compare to a typical brokerage are: - DeLeon pays for ALL marketing AND staging AND inspection fees. They have skin in the game if the house doesn't sell and so the incentives are aligned between DeLeon and the seller; that is not the case with most other agents. - DeLeon has done more sell-side deals than anyone else in the areas they focus on, so they have had A LOT of first hand data and insights about the psychology and behavior of buyers. As a result, they are able to come up with winning pricing and negotiation strategies that lead to great outcomes. - DeLeon has a top-notch team and each person on their team is A+ at their jobs: Nitasha manages the house prep on a super tight timeline and pays attention to every single detail so that the house shows well and is in tip top shape; Joanne handles all the listing paperwork; Karen makes sure a smooth closing; and last but not least Audrey and Michael are the brains behind it all. Beware of the FUD about DeLeon that you'll hear from the other agents, many of them will bad-mouth DeLeon because they can't compete on merit. The hundreds of stellar reviews are proof that DeLeon is truly the best in the business! read more

*I originally wrote this post as a thank you note to Bernie, but thought it could help other potential clients to know how extremely happy we are to have worked with Bernie and the Deleon team. Dear Bernie, We would like to express our sincere gratitude for all that you've done for us since we met in January. It's been so lovely spending time with you and we appreciate how easy and fun you've made everything for us. You are truly a spectacular agent. Without a doubt, you're the best realtor we've met and probably will ever meet, so you can count on a lifelong list of referrals-- both because we loved working with you, but also because we want our friends and family to be in the very best hands. We are indebted to the whole Deleon team including Andrew for his lightning fast disclosures summaries, and Colette for guidance on the legal front. Also very happy that you urged us to work with Chris from Wells Fargo-- a key ingredient for our success! Sadly, we may not get another chance to work with you directly again, because we're literally never moving. You helped us find what we absolutely consider a forever home, and for that we cannot be more grateful. You knew better than we did what to look for in a location and listened well for what we value. In this absolutely insane and unprecedented market, with so few choices, we benefitted from your expertise and sharp, detail-oriented assessment of the properties we toured together. You know the important things to consider and what actually brings value to a property. We're so glad that in the end we ended up in Menlo Park - the place we originally found you! We're also glad that due to your extensive familiarity with each neighborhood pocket along the peninsula that we were able to confidently search in different towns to try them on for size. It's such a blessing that we lost the other homes we bid on, and that we walked away from many others. In the end, we were able to make a highly informed decision and feel even better about the purchase. Your expertise, hard work, and friendship has lead us to the best possible outcome-- Allied Arts of all places! We have no doubt that you truly went to bat for us to make this possible, so thank you for using every tool at your disposal to seal the deal. We feel lucky and excited to get to move forward with this new stage in our lives and we hope to keep in touch with you throughout your career and to celebrate your own milestones as well. We admire your work ethic, honesty, and how well you've perfected your art. Thank you for everything you did to steer us in the right direction and to make sure everything was completely handled along the way. You truly went above and beyond. With profound appreciation, Tiffany & Mel, Michael, Ann & Irv (+Diana!) aka "the family" Ps. Please thank Michael from Deleon for us as well! read more

DeLeon was fantastic! The process was seamless with great communication. Anytime something needed to be done they were on it, and I didn't have to stress. In particular, Audrey was awesome and kept me in the loop of any news on potential buyers and was always responsive and patient. Margie did a great job on helping renovate my place. The staging was also magnificently done. I wish I had more properties to sell so our relationship could continue. :) read more

See all

Michael and his team are top-notch. Really excellent at their work and friendly while doing it. They advised my family on a large sale and the entire process went smoothly. Michael's advice was very spot on (now that we can look back at it in hindsight). Would highly recommend working with them and would give them six stars if I could! read more

We had a great experience selling our home through DeLeon Realty. We anticipated some complexity to the process as we had already moved to Austin and were no longer present at the property, but Michael and his team took care of everything for us. Throughout the process they communicated frequently every step of the way and made the entire process very easy. If you get a chance to work with them, don't hesitate! read more

We selected DeLeon as our selling agent when we sold our beautiful & unique house in Woodside. Michael Repka (the sellers' agent) and his team are TERRIFIC to work with. The team fixed little things like a broken faucet handle, staged our house beautifully, took professional photos and a video, refinished our floors, updated our landscaping, etc. all with zero effort required by us, and with smiles on their faces every time we interacted with any member of the team. What we didn't realize is that other members of the DeLeon team were also working on our behalf behind the scenes, including the marketing team and Andrew and Jessica - thank you! When Michael told us at the beginning that part of their comprehensive package of services included 20 hours of free legal fees, we didn't pay much attention because, since our house was in perfect condition, we did not expect any legal hassles to arise. However, we did end up having a frustrating and expensive legal problem related to a bid on the house, and Michael and Colette (DeLeon's in-house real estate attorney) were right by our side, both taking charge and supporting us throughout the ordeal. Colette is a lovely person who made every interaction more pleasant, in addition to being extremely capable. I highly recommend DeLeon, especially for sellers whose top priority is to have zero hassles, zero problems, and zero bad surprises. Their team makes the experience effortless for the seller. read more

My sister and I had the wonderful opportunity to work with Audrey Sun from DeLeon Realty, as our Listing Agent. After our parents had passed away, selling their home was a very emotional task at hand. Ms. Audrey and her amazing team, did not treat us as, 'just another client'. They all treated us with 'compassion' and 'understanding'. It wasn't just another house being sold. It was our parent's home, where grandchildren visited, holidays were celebrated and memories were made. DeLeon Realty has an entire team that coordinates, in detail, every step of the way. Painting, carpeting, landscapers, you name it... they have a total squad ready. Their Designer Shihan Xu, did an incredible job, with staging and all the finishing touches, down to the lemons in a bowl! By the time I saw the professional photos and video, the house no longer looked like my parents home. It now looked like a new, fresh, contemporary house, full of life once again, and ready for new memories! I could actually feel the positive energy, even from where I live in South Carolina! It was exciting to see the changes, all done as promised, in a timely manner, to the exact dates on the calendar. I know my parents would be pleased with all that you have done and the entire (seamless) process. Thank you, to the entire DeLeon Team! Well done! read more

Prior to my engagement with the DeLeon team on the sell side, I was skeptical of all brokers and agents. Not anymore. Michael and his team are thorough professionals capable of delivering honest, forthright and thoughtful advice throughout the process. They also brought us a buyer and gave us a break on the commission - going from 5.5% to 3%. This action reduced our commission by many tens of thousands of dollars. I could go on but for anyone wanting to buy or sell a house in Palo Alto, don't bother with other brokers - go DeLeon. read more

Deleon Realty is a stellar team of professionals! They take charge of the sale of your home from beginning to end! We were very pleased with their service and were worry free during the entire process! They are extremely generous and give attention to every single detail in the staging process, sale process and closing. You will be happy you choose them! highly recommend them! read more

The Team at DeLeon Realty far exceeded my expectations. Michael Repka and his team did a fantastic job getting my home ready and once on market, it sold over asking price in 5 days! If you are getting ready to sell your home you must talk to Michael. I am so happy I choose this firm. No detail went without consideration and action. The staging team and everyone associated with the project were top notch from beginning to close of escrow.They have set the bar very high for any Real Estate firm I will ever work with in the future. read more

DeLeon Realty - Real Estate Agents Near Me - Palo Alto, California

We bought our first house with the DeLeon team--and won on our second offer. Huge Kudos to Bernie and Ken! I met Bernie at an open house hosted by DeLeon and was immediately impressed with his knowledge of the market, professionalism, and all the benefits that the DeLeon team had to offer. They never rushed me or pressured me to submit offers, which I really appreciated. Bernie would respond to my many questions with tons of details and insight during our housing search. Again--I have to emphasize that they were willing to be at the pace that we wanted to be. This was a breath of fresh air, as I had many reservations about real estate agents before working with the DeLeon team. When the time to make an offer came, Bernie and Ken were on conference calls with my wife and me and made sure we understood the entire process and the house we were bidding on. Burned the midnight oil. I was specifically impressed with Ken's knowledge of the market--he positioned us with a competitive bid and helped us negotiate a winning offer. After the offer process, the DeLeon team followed up with us and made sure we were happy where we were. Would highly recommend! I've interacted with many other real estate agents, and the DeLeon team's professionalism and dedication to client service have been unparalleled. Thanks!! read more

Because of time limitation I was in a need to sell my house very fast and of course at a satisfactory price thus I planed to hire the best agency that I was able to locate in my area. On Friday I went to meet with Michael Repka and Francis Lopez of Deleon Realty. After I explained my situation they prepared for me a speed up plan. Right away on Monday morning Michael's team members came and started to implement their system into an action. They checked the house and begin to schedule the contractors in order to bring the house to best functionality and up to the code. Also on the same day I started all disclosure documents with their legal team. What a help. They also provided a handyman (free of charge). On top of it Michael agency arranged for very and beautiful staging - designed by professional designers. The agreement was to keep the house staged free of charge for as long as it was on the market. And he delivered on that agreement. Also Michael prepared a marketing materials as well a marketing campaign targeting foreign countries thus trying to find as much potential buyers as possible. And guess what - it was also free of charge. It felt very convenient and easy when I got all this help and in so short time. Thank to that in few days they made it ready for open house. In few days I got several solid offers. Michael's plan action as well as a negotiating skills brought me a buyer who offered the amount even higher of my asking price - and all it happened within my time window. To my pleasant surprise Michael let me know that I've increased my profit even more by not having to pay a buyer's agent commission since the agent was from same agency. It was in a contract and Michael kept that promise. A nice benefit for a seller's side. When I entered into an escrow - Michales's legal team was in my corner all the time. So it was much easier to go through that stage. His people are well trained in common interests for benefit of a seller and he expects from them to be polite, knowledgeable and professional. Everyone from Michael's team delivered all this characteristic. I must say that Michael Repka build large, strong and very effective organization. I could hire one agent operation or choose to go with well performing organization. I am convinced that Michael Repka's team was right choice for me. And one more benefit of having Michael Repka as a seller agent is a fact that he is an experienced real estate lawyer thus be better positioned to avoid or if needed to solve the potential difficulties.
