Where to begin... the Mrs. and I decided it was time to purchase our first home. We were referred to Bill Davis and that is where the great customer service began. Through out the process Bill kept up communication and was always flexible with our schedule. He made sure to get to know us first then he came up with a plan to find our perfect first home. We found our perfect home and with Bill's great knowledge and constant communication, we beat out several other offers for the house. Going through all the inspections was enough to make my head spin. But Bill was focused and determined to ensure we had everything answered and explain if we had questions. Closing was great and yet again Bill was in constant communication and had updates for us. Not only will I use Bill for any future real estate transactions but I will refer my family, friends and anyone reading this review. Thanks Bill! read more

We used Hinds Realty to sell our house a while back. Marcus was great. He played hardball with the buyers and got us what we deserved. The deal was smooth, and seamless. Communication was spot on. If you want someone who knows what they are doing, knows how the system works, and makes things happen, then Marcus is your guy!!! read more

Marcus Hinds put me in my first House and made it as easy as possible to deal with the Banks and Loan Officers to get the deal closed! His Team is professional, courteous, Prompt, and Knowledgeable in the Industry! I would recommend Hinds Realty Group to anyone looking to get into or sell their house; they really know how to get things done! read more

Working with Charles Tagay was a true pleasure. He helped my wife and I buy our first home together and we were thoroughly impressed by the level of attention we received from him. We had worked with other realtors who we found to be pushy and armed with materials filled with convoluted market statistics. Charles on the other hand took a genuine interest in what we were looking for and what our vision for our dream home was. He kept a close eye on the competitive Walnut Creek market and used his deep industry connections so that we could see homes that fit our budget before they were listed to the general public. I highly recommend Charles Tagay to any home buyer and it's safe to say we won't look anywhere else when it comes time to look for a new home as our family grows. read more

I wish I could give zero stars. For several years this individual has persisted in sending me unsolicited offers to purchase my home, even though I have repeatedly asked him not to. Today I received TWO pieces of mail from him--both very unprofessionally hand-addressed. They are duplicate solicitations to arrange sale of my home to an "interested builder." For several years I've tried calls, e-mails and returned letters to Hinds asking him to stop contacting me. Yet he persists in pinging me. Marcus, you and your company have become the LAST party I would contact to sell my home, should I want to in the future. Stop soliciting me! read more

Charles Tagay helped my wife and me with our first ever home purchase, and was masterful in his ability, attentiveness, and support. He gave us excellent insight into the bidding process, and guided us towards our dream home in the perfect neighborhood. Once we had done this, he helped us through the escrow process, came out in person during the inspections and even made it out when neither my wife or I could. Charles was very attentive and responsive in communicating with us, was always just a phone call (or text) away. Most importantly, Charles kept our best interests in mind and aided us in making one of the most important decisions of our lives. He even helped us with the big move! We will be going through him when we are ready to grow our family and our home. We are forever in his debt, and can't wait to work with him again! read more

As a first time home buyers, We were looking for someone we could trust and that would have the patience with us since we were making a big step into our future and had no idea what to expect. Bill Davis definitely made the process as smooth as possible from mapping out the houses we viewed, to the day we received the key to Our New Home. We are in love with Our Home and look forward to making many memories. We will recommend Bill to any of our family or friends that are looking into buying, selling or investing, because we trust they will be in good hands. We look forward to working with Bill in the future. read more

I sold my home with Marcus a few years ago and the attention and representation was excellent. He sold my home at top dollar during a tough market. I reached out to him again when I was ready to buy. Ehsan was a great representative, treated me with respect and looked out for my best interest. For example, there was a home I was interested in and he knew that it was not the best area for my budget. He accommodated my scheule in showing homes and advice me in the offer process and was a great negotiator. I would definately work with him again. read more

This group of vultures must have gotten my name from a legal filing I made when my mother passed away in 2018, and now I continue to get mailings from them about probate matters. They're obnoxiously forward, and also clueless, since my filing pertained to a trust, not probate and was handled by (drum roll, please) an attorney. I detest blood suckers like this and automatically out them on the do-not-call list. read more

We had a great experience working with Bill Davis. My Fiancé and I are first time home-buyers and were intimidated (at least I was ) by the process, bidding wars, prices skyrocketing, and properties selling for above asking price, it didn't sound simple at all, but Bill made a very daunting process a Breeze. Throughout the past several months, Bill has been there every step of the way. He has always answered every call or email no matter what time of day or night it was. When interviewing with him, he made sure to ask al he correct questions to know specifically what fit our situation. He was always on our side working to make our house purchase as simple and successful as possible. The best part about working with Bill was that he was always more focused on answering our questions, giving us good advice, and finding homes that met our needs than he was on closing a deal. We would recommend him to anyone. We got exactly what we wanted, location, price, and much more with Bill. read more

Questionable practices. This guy feels like a swarmy used car salesman. Will price your home WAY too low just to attract buyers and if its a short sale the banks can balk at the price which means a delay in getting it sold. Regardless, you get screwed in the end. I don't think he lists any homes that aren't under threat of foreclosure...he's a bit of a bottom fisher. Stay away!! read more

Marcus Hinds is one of the better realtors out there. I've been in the game for about 15 years and I'm always impressed by Marcus and his team. What separates him from the rest is his ability to dream, commitment to honesty, and relentless follow through. I've done a handful of deals with Marcus and he's one of a kind. I strongly encourage you to try this group. If you want integrity coupled with VIP service, the Hinds Group is the way to go. read more

I have heard from many, that dealing with a short sale was tedious and stressful. I decided to give Hinds Realty Group a try. They found a buyer for my house and had it sold in less than 30days, they got my short sale approved in 67 days. I got regular updates weekly and they took care of everything. Thanks Hinds Realty Group for dealing with the stress of the bank for me. read more

Bill Davis made buying our first home as painless as possible. He gave us all of our options and which one would be our best bet. He always followed up or led us in the right direction to find our answers. He was very patient with us when we were looking and always knew what we could do if we were  looking at a fixer upper. When it came to buying our second home we knew who to call. read more

Hinds Realty Group is awesome. Agent Rosa Venegas was able to get our house sold in a month at full list price. She was able to get us in a house we love in our budget. She was able to answer all of our questions and had an open line of communication through the whole process of buying and selling. If you are looking for a great realtor, I recommend Hinds Realty Group. Make sure you ask for Rosa Venegas. read more

Our realtor, Anastasia, was great! She was willing to show us everything we wanted to see and quickly clued into the things that were important to us. She was always very patient and attentive. I really appreciated her excellent communications throughout escrow process. She was on it! I definitely recommend her! read more

Holy Moly! What a breeze it was to sell our house! The price we sold our place for was 12k more than the appraisal value! Bill Davis was our realtor and he was just on it. What a guy. As soon as he began to talk to us about himself and how he works, we let him take the reigns and there couldn't have been a better way to sell our place. Thanks to Diana as well who patiently communicated with us during a hectic summer. I give them a ten-out-of-ten. read more

Marcus and his team were extremely responsive with my situation. I mean extremely! I called one day and he was there the next day to discuss a plan. Hinds Realty saved my house in Hayward from foreclosing, literally to the minutes and seconds. Communication between the two parties was consistent and they always kept you updated. Overall, I would recommend Hinds Realty Group to anybody looking for a go-getting; in-your-face; taking-care-of-business type of team! read more

Selling my home was such a stressful time for me since I had to go through a legal battle with tenants and a complete remodel to get the house back in good shape! It was such a relief to have Bill Davis help me with everything from advice on how to get my home ready and appealing to buyers to how to list and what to expect during the selling process. Bill was very familiar with the neighborhood where I sold my house and was very helpful with advertising to local buyers to get a great and quick turn out of potential buyers. My house sold quickly and for the price that I aimed for. I will definitely reach out to Bill when I buy my next home! read more

Working with Marcus made selling my house an easy stress less process. He made every thing very easy and took care of all the details. After listing my house he negotiated with the buyers to get me 26K over my asking price. Not only was I extremely happy with the price but he had everything wrapped up with in 1 month. Top notch service with the Hinds Group I recommend them to everyone. read more

My daughter and I met Charles Tagay, of Hinds Realty, at an open house in Richmond. We were just starting out to "casually" check out the housing market for my daughter's first purchase, and we weren't really sure yet whether we were serious, or what exactly we were looking for. Charles was so approachable and easy to talk to, friendly yet not at all "high pressure." We had no intention of choosing a realtor at that point, but we were both so comfortable with Charles that we immediately decided he was the one we wanted to work with! We signed up on the spot! Charles got right down to business, putting us in touch with a mortgage broker to get pre-approved for a loan, and nailed down our price range. My daughter scoured the internet for available houses and Charles was already familiar with almost any house she asked about. He was able to get us in to see any house that was a possibility and could answer all our questions, or find the answer in no time. If we texted him about something, he got back to us within minutes. During our search process, we learned so much from him about the real estate market and what to expect along the way. Charles is a good listener, and really paid attention to our needs and preferences. We found a place that we really loved in a surprisingly short amount of time. At that point Charles wasted no time in helping us put in a competitive bid, and thanks to his expert guidance, we got the home we wanted! That's not the end of the story, because we had a lot of twists and turns during escrow, and Charles helped us through all of this with great patience and encouragement! He was always calm, and helped us to stay calm. We are so happy to have worked with Charles, and we would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for an excellent realtor. read more

I just purchase my first home and Bill Davis was my agent. I'm happy that Bill was introduce to me and became my agent because we were able to find the right house with the right price on our first showing. Bill is very good at his job and did all the work for me. I would definitely refer him to my friends and families. Thank you Bill for all your help. I love my new home and look forward to creating years of memories in my new home. read more

Bought a house from Hinds Realty. What a breath of fresh air it was to deal personally with the Boss Marcus compared to a few other real estate teams that tried to get my business before being recommended to Marcus and his team. It was night and day compared to the other agents I had previously that made me feel as if they were only after my pocket book and making a commision. Marcus really listened and wanted to help me get into the right house and negotiated a better deal than I was even hoping for. He is a true Rock Star in the Real Estate world and is very knowlegeable about other things such as people to help fix up a few things here and there that I had invisioned in my new home. He even helped me move on a day and watched my new puppy during the moving process. Now thats 5 star service!! Great job Marcus to you and your team read more

I must admit that initially, I felt that Marcus was dragging his feet as he did not conduct business like other realtors we have used in the past. We are seniors and the majority of the transactions were done electronically with the exception of our first few meetings which were face to face. (so much for keeping up with a changing world) However, when it got down to negotiating the sale with the buyers, his true skills came through loud and clear. We have owned the home Marcus sold for us many decades. As such, various repairs were needed. Needless to say, as reflected in the 5 star rating, we are very, very pleased with the final outcome and would highly recommend Marcus to anyone considering selling or purchasing property in the future. We are truly impressed. read more

This is a brief statement on the service that I have received from the Marcus Hinds Realty Group regarding our short sale. Even though we are in the beginning stages his staff has been very professional in handling all the details with our mortgage company. My wife and I haven't had to deal with all the complexities regarding this matter. They handle eveything from the beginning to the end and we have been happy with the service thus far. He will be having a seminar July 27,2013 in Walnut Creek, Ca. For further information conatct number is (510) 435-4422.( to be continued......) read more

i used Bill Davis to purchase our home in brentwood ca. He was on top of everything and made home buying a great experience. I appreciate all of his hard work and recommend anyone looking to buy a home use this guy and this company! read more

As a first time home buyer, I could not have asked for a better realtor to work with than Bill Davis. I was a bundle of nerves and Bill could not have been more patient and understanding with all the questions I had. He made what can be a very daunting process much easier than could be expected. He was accessible and easy to communicate with. He always made himself available to help in whatever way to make the process run smoothly. When (not if) I'm in the position to buy my second home, I will definitely work with Bill again. Thanks, Bill!! read more

Marcus Hinds sold us our first house 8 years ago and we had a wonderful experience as first time home buyers. We stayed in touch for over 8 years as Marcus treats his clients like friends and family, often refers to selling your home as if it were his own home he was responsible for. Marcus just Sold our first home for $30,000 over the asking price and found us our perfect dream house in the Hills of El Sobrante. He negotiated the price down over $20,000.00 and got us over $3,000 in repair credits without us asking him or suggesting. He naturally puts "Clients First" and takes care of all their needs. Marcus provided us with weekly updates as to the status and progress so we were in the know every step of the way. If you want to hire the right company the first time, hire Hinds Realty Group! read more

My friend who recently bought (with 20% down conventional loan) warned me that it took him over a year to finally get a house because the market is so competitive. So, I was bracing myself to not have high hopes about obtaining a home with my FHA loan with a low down payment. But I cannot tell you how glad I am that Bill Davis was my real estate agent! I had a lot of questions because I'm a first time home buyer, and he answered each question in detail, and he was always available to answer any questions. I also let him know that I didn't have high hopes of really getting a home that I want right away because I'm coming in with an FHA loan with a low down payment. But he promised and reassured me that he can get me the home of my dreams. At first, I wasn't sure I should really get my hopes up. But Bill took me around to see some homes that I was interested in, and I fell in love with a house! He got working on it right away, and although there seemed to be A LOT of offers on that house, he managed to get me that house, like he promised! I couldn't believe it! I was quickly in escrow, and he even gave me tips on what I can do with the house. He patiently walked me through the escrow process, and even negotiated with the seller to chip in for closing!! (This really helped me a lot, as I didn't have much for down payment!) As a first time home buyer, I had a lot of questions! Bill was very responsive and communicative, and helped me at every step. My escrow is closing tomorrow morning! It went by so smoothly and without a hitch, it's all because Bill was on top of things at all times! When I tell people my smooth and quick journey in obtaining a home in the Bay Area, and the deal I got for this house, no one can believe it!! I would recommend Bill Davis a hundred times over!!! If you would like to buy a home, you need to contact Bill! read more

Marcus has his unique way of making the house visible on the market. As soon as he took over, buyers started showing up. And within two weeks offers were made at above average selling price in the neighborhood. We were very satisfied and happy with his efficiency and professionalism. I would recommend Marcus and his team to anyone who want to sell their houses quickly. read more

We met Kumi through the Hinds Realty Group on Facebook. We were having a hard time with our current realtor. He was a great listener and put our interests first. Our goal was to find a home with a big backyard in a good neighborhood and he made the process very easy. Once we found the house we liked, Kumi was an expert at negotiating; we wrote 1 offer and got the house first try! He made the contracts easy to read and found our inspectors so we didn't have to worry about a thing. He connected us with the best lender and our down payment and closing costs were less than $4000. We are no longer renting and are happy homeowners now! Thanks for your patience and guidance Kumi! read more

Whenever I needed something or had a question they got it done or responded immediately.

Working with Bill Davis has been excellent. He's knowledgeable about the availability of real estate in our area, he assisted in quickly finding us a great property that met our price and personal needs and he conducts himself in an extremely professional manner. We experienced problem after problem with our loan officer (and will never recommend her to anyone, ever!) but throughout the process Bill was persistent and kept us in the loop so we could make sure the loan side of things continued to move forward. I would use Bill again if I needed and definitely recommend him if you're looking for a professional, committed, knowledgeable, personable, and trustworthy agent. Buying a home can be a daunting and stressful process if you don't have the right person helping you to get through the process. Bill's professional standards were an incredible asset to us throughout this process. He's a real gem! read more

Marcus and team at Hinds Realty Group are first class professionals at conducting business and very personable at the same time. We got introduced to Hinds Realty through a friend of mine who Marcus had helped close a home previously. Since, I and my wife were the first time home buyers, we did not know what to expect of this experience. Marcus made us feel comfortable and went over the entire home buying process. He patiently explained benefits of owning a home and the kind of home we can get based on the rent we were paying at that time. Marcus coached us and shared his valuable experience and knowledge constantly and taught us a lot of things along the way about home value, appraisals, loans, offers, upgrades, market trends etc, that helped us make decisions. He was always there for us, as a good friend, at any time of the day or night for any questions for suggestions. He would pick up the phone even during the middle of his vacation in Mexico. We are thankful to Marcus, Diana, Roger, Rosa, Eric and others for their dedication to help us find our dream home. One more important thing, Marcus knows exactly how to negotiate with sellers, he will close it for you. You can count on it :) read more
