Cant thank Theresa enough for all her advice, knowledge and services, throughout our journey finding our dream home. As first time home buyers my husband and I were as nervous, picky and indecisive as one could get. Theresa patiently worked with us for over a year showing us several properties, always professional, thorough and quick to respond. Her knowledge about real estate and attention to detail is incomparable. It is very evident, through her work, that she loves her job and that's its her true calling. Theresa always kept our best interests in mind and never pushed us to close a deal. She has time and again gone above and beyond her call of duty and shared her extensive knowledge and recommendations on things like remodeling a home, choice of materials, contractors etc. We also had a challenging rent back situation and she helped us move through that smoothly and made sure, even after closing, that we were able to get the keys and the house was still in a good move in condition. I would highly and happily recommend Theresa for any of your real-estate needs.

We were new to the area and she worked hard to find us the right home in a great area. She took us on a tour of Fremont and educated us on the home buying process in CA, which was much different then our previous experience in Minnesota! We bought our first house as a short sale and she is the reason we won the house. Her knowledge of short sales was impectable and she was able to help the sellers realtor, who had little experience in this area. Theresa and Arin helped us sell our first home. The process was quick and we very easy! They helped us to list our house at a great price that brought in lots of activity and multiple offers, ultimately selling our house for over the asking price. Our last experience with Theresa and Arin truly shows their attention to detail. We bought our house from long distance, after living a short time in South Dakota. Arin "took" us to see homes via FaceTime. Theresa helped us to make good offers on houses that we had not physically seen. She worked with inspectors and repair/fumigation workers all while we were still out of the area. We found a great house and are happily settled! I highly recommend Team DeAnda!

Alex was patient, knowledgeable, and truly cared about helping us find the right home. No matter what time of day or night we had questions, he is always quick to respond and make sure we had the information we needed which gave us so much peace of mind. One thing that meant so much to our family was that Alex speaks Vietnamese and was able to communicate directly with my mom. This made her feel comfortable, included, and confident throughout the whole process. Alex went above and beyond to make our first home-buying experience as smooth and stress-free as possible. We're incredibly grateful for all the time, effort, and care Alex put into helping us achieve this milestone. We highly recommend Alex to anyone looking for an experienced and trustworthy realtor!!

Outstanding Real Estate Agent - Highly Recommend Alex Ho!…read more I cannot say enough good things about my experience working with Alex Ho! From the very beginning, Alex took the time to understand my financial circumstances and provided thoughtful, practical recommendations that were always in my best interest. His communication was exceptional. He kept me informed every step of the way, was always accessible, and made the entire selling process as smooth and stress-free as possible. Thanks to Alex's expertise and proactive approach, I received an offer after the very first weekend of showing and for far more than my asking price, plus he enabled an earlier close date! Alex is knowledgeable, dedicated, trustworthy, and results-driven. He doesn't just make promises; he delivers! If you're looking for a real estate professional who genuinely cares about his clients and can be counted on to get the job done right, I wholeheartedly recommend Alex Ho!

This was the first time I had seen it be busy during an open house in the four years that I lived there. I am extremely pleased to have worked with Rickey Soriano & Vesta Residential on the sale of my condo. His guidance and recommendations of repairs and preparation of my condo had a positive impact in the sale. He brings the right people for the job. I feel that Rickey went above and beyond as my Agent. I saved $11,088.00 on listing commissions by selling with Vesta. Rickey also helped me buy a home. Here again he shocked me with his buying expertise as he proved to have strong negotiation skills. A nice surprise is that I received a $6,623.00 credit by buying with Vesta. I feel honored to have been represented by Rickey Soriano. Four adjectives that describe Rickey are: he is honest, has integrity, has respect, and is compassionate towards his clients. I recommend him as your agent. He will not let you down.

I decided to go with him for both selling my condo in Emeryville and then the purchase of my new home in Oakland. While the condo in Emeryville took a while to sell, Rickey kept his finger on the pulse and worked hard to get it looked at. Ultimately his suggestions worked and I feel that I got a fairly good value considering market conditions for condos. One a side note, he did all the video and photo work himself - he's got quite an eye for aesthetics on top of his real estate acumen. In the same vein, he showed us many properties in the Oakland area and had very insightful comments on each one. The house we "accidentally" bought came about through his bidding suggestions and I honestly can't believe I'm now living in my dream house without spending easily 10 - 30% more. His commision is very transparent (and often quite below other agents), which is a rarity in the real estate world. I highly recommend Rickey and Vesta Residential.

He helped us buy our home ten years ago, and when it came time to sell, we knew right away we wanted him by our side again. This time, things were a little more complicated since we had already moved overseas, but Randy handled everything with skill, care, and total professionalism. From organizing the renovation to working with contractors, staging the home, and managing the entire sale, Randy made it all look effortless. He kept us updated throughout and made sure no detail was overlooked. His extensive experience and understanding of the market were clear at every step, and his ability to guide us through decisions with both logic and heart made a huge difference. We felt incredibly well taken care of during what could have been a very stressful process. Randy is not just a fantastic realtor, he's a true partner and advocate for his clients. We're so thankful for everything he did and could not recommend him more highly!

MIKE FOOR IS ALL YOU NEED IF YOU WANT A DETAILED-ORIENTED PROFESSIONAL TO SELL YOUR HOUSE AND HAVE…read moreA PEACE OF MIND ... YOU ARE IN ABSOLUTELY GOOD HANDS WITH MIKE. YOU TELL MIKE WHAT YOU NEED AND HE WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN. HE WORKS HARD FOR YOU, AND HE CARES ABOUT HIS CLIENT. I live in the East coast and I needed to help my 86 yo mother with very limited English and mobility to sell her house of 50+ years in San Francisco. The property is a 2 unit flat, 50% co-owned by my cousin who also lives outside of California. My cousin was EXTREMELY worried about a closed house sale that might have loose ends that could leave open an opportunity for buyers to later return and request more money, repairs, or sue us for something -- so he did not trust anybody to help sell the property. We discussed hiring a real estate lawyer to help with the process to ensure there were no holes where that could happen. Thankfully my good friend, whose parents' SF house Mike sold, referred me to Mike who happens to have a previous background as a real estate lawyer... perfect! His law background plus the time he took to talk with us over the phone won my cousin's trust. Mike's ability to immediately lay out an action plan and timeline to orchestrate people, services, inspections, paperwork, social media, and showings -- all around keeping my mother "comfortable" and minimally involved -- made it evident he had extensive knowledge and experience in selling all types of homes and conditions, and that he was going to get the job done in a timely manner... all the while he himself making it top priority to keep the process "stress-free" for my mother. Mike cares about his cllients. There were many complicating factors, including: 1) Inability of one of the owners (mother) to perform actions needed to sell the house, 2) Owners living in different states who have limited computer availability and knowledge, 3) Challenging acqusitition of property information: My mother's share of the property changed over the years as other family member owners with varying percentages passed away, with the last family member transferring his share to my mother -- not all this and information about the property prior to my family's ownership was cleanly documented on paper, 4) Multiple difficult and untrusting parties: One former family member owner complicated the situation as he was still tied to the property but not initially cooperative -- he has a rough and untrusting disposition if he does not know you, but Mike was able to win his trust (alongside my cousin's)! There were many issues with the property as it was older and had never been updated, outside of what was necessary repairs such as leaks. Mike wanted to know everything about the house, not just take our word for it, but he ordered typical and atypical inspections so that he could have all the information to disclose to buyers. Despite the lack of maintenance and updates over several decades, Mike saw the potential for what this property could be to others and helped potential buyers see this. Mike found buyers and we sold the house in a declining real estate market. From the time I first met Mike to the time the house closed was 2 months... which I think is fantastic taking all things into consideration. MIKE CONTINUES TO WORK FOR YOU, EVEN AFTER THE CLOSING: Fast forward 8 months later, Mike contacts me about the buyers wanting more money to help with their update of the water drainanage as they were experiencing flooding on the property from the unusual heavy rains. As in typical "Mike" fashion, he took it upon himself to write an understanding yet extensive response that further outlined all the disclosures from the closing paperwork and of the rarity of the unusually heavy rains -- to mitigate the situation. Mike further advised me to contact a realestate lawyer to write a formal letter, for which his company gave me references. The lawyer reviewed the case, and felt all disclosures were properly made and that there was no case. He wrote and sent a letter ... almost a year later I have yet to hear anything, so I am rest assured that the case is closed. MIKE IS A PROFESSIONAL, ABSOLUTELY KNOWS WHAT HE NEEDS TO DO, HAS FORESIGHT, AND CARES ABOUT YOU. HANDS DOWN, I RECOMMEND MIKE FOR ANYONE LOOKING TO SELL OR BUY REALESTATE in SF BAY AREA!
