I reached out to Vicky and Enzo to sell our home of 30 years…read more For the past two years, I had been helping my husband manage a serious health issue, and I was completely overwhelmed by what needed to be done to get the house ready. To make things even more complicated, we were moving out of state during the renovation and sale. Vicky and Enzo managed the entire process from start to finish, and they were absolutely wonderful. They had an excellent pulse on the market and guided us in adjusting our strategy along the way--ultimately helping us secure $125,000 more than we expected. Their support was priceless. They were patient, incredibly responsive, and consistently kind during a very stressful time. I cannot recommend them highly enough. They made what felt impossible not only manageable, but successful beyond what we imagined.

I've owned (and sold) many homes in the past 40 years and I've worked with a lot of real estate…read moreagents. Vicky Costantini stands out as the best of them all. When it came time to sell my parents' stunning Woodside Hills home in the SF Bay Area, managing the process from the opposite coast, I can't imagine having worked with anyone else. I'll cut to the chase. Second day on the market, we received a preemptive all-cash offer, well above ask, with no contingencies and closed in 7 days. Many things had to be handled properly and intelligently for this to happen. And, quite frankly, it all came down to Vicky. (Well, I get some credit, because I was smart enough to listen to her.) Vicky has specialized in buying and selling Woodside real estate for over three decades. This experience translates into a deep and intuitive understanding about local market dynamics. Why are some of the properties that many seem to think are comps languishing for months and having to cut price? As a Type A analytic person, it would've been easy to agonize and second guess myself and Vicky. I'm glad I didn't. With this team, you're in astute and experienced hands. Vicky is the consummate professional. She spends the time to understand your goals, concerns, and work style. If you like to delegate, there's no question she will handle it all within the parameters you set and keep you informed. If you're like me and want interactive, real-time decision making, she is right there with you every step of the way. She can multi-task with the best of us. Vicky is on it. She does not drop balls. She does not cut corners. She knows the law and has your back. She will not make choices that could come back to hurt you (and her reputation). She's got you. So if you're like me and your mind is always on the move, you have the space to ask all the questions without feeling like you're nuts. She does not make you nervous. Vicky is a grown-up. She has true emotional intelligence. She is patient and grounded. She doesn't get overwhelmed. She doesn't take things personally. She revels in solving problems and staying on track. She will also protect you against yourself. Vicky understands that buying and selling your home is A Big Deal. She can talk you down from over-reacting and protect you from yourself. Vicky is a generous and happy person. She likes people and she is genuinely likeable. In my particular situation, the transaction involved the sale of a house inside a trust. It's really not much of a difference technically. What was different is that I live on the other side of the country. We got it done together. Vicky did all the local heavy lifting and this included activities not strictly connected to the sale of the house, such as the excruciating details of handling decades worth of personal belongings in the house -- distribution among beneficiaries, movers, disposition of unwanted items, protecting private papers, and so on. Not once did Vicky ever say "that's not my job." As far as she was concerned, it was all her job. She promised she would handle it all and she did -- with a smile. The property had a lot going for it and that was super motivating for everyone. But it still required vision and tremendous attention to detail. The house wasn't maintained at the standard it deserved and it needed a lot of work. I'm talking detailed inspections, major landscaping, whole house painting, replacing carpets, redoing hardwood floors, and all the things that need to be cleaned out, like septic tanks and crawl spaces and attics. The work had to be done economically and impeccably, and disclosed properly. That was no easy matter in Woodside. She hung in there with me as I required three and sometimes four lower estimates for every job, saving the trust tens of thousands of dollars. Oh, did I mention the interior staging was gorgeous? Now that the transaction is complete, here's where we are. We're friends. Seriously. If I drove her nuts, she's not showing it. She's warm and kind as ever. And she's still helping me to get personal property from the guy who repairs fine rugs to the moving truck which leaves for NJ in a few days. Vicky doesn't stack listings. She is selective for good reason. Each listing gets her full attention. It's more enjoyable this way, she tells me. And one neglected transaction can tank a reputation. I loved working with her. If you have a chance to hire her, grab it. I'm betting she will knock your socks off, too.

James and Nicole provided white glove service through the entirety of the process. They are the real estate equivalents of Goldman Sachs or McKinsey - highly strategic in their advice while also being exceptionally detail oriented and organized. All the while, they maintained a customer-centric approach that was both personal and professional. They understood our needs and were truly partners throughout the process - never married to a single approach, just the one that made sense for us. From start to finish across two transactions, there was never anything too big for them to handle or too small for them to address. We truly value their partnership, professionalism, and work product. Highly recommend to everyone - especially busy people with a high bar!

From the first meeting, they were thorough with their market assessment and recommendations on how to prepare and market the house, they communicated clearly with us every step of the way, managed the process of preparing the home and kept track of every detail.

Jayne knows Woodside Real Estate! It's rare to work with a real estate agent ( or anyone for that…read morematter) who has such sincere personalized service and professionalism. She knows her market, and she knows people. Her 30 years+ of experience in the area makes her an absolute asset. I was blown away with her knowledge of neighborhoods, schools, local history, stores & services! She is a Woodside native, has raised her children there, and her true love for the area shows. What I appreciate most about Jayne is her personal service and sincere commitment to her clients. She listens and she is honest. She won't just tell you to check things out online, and come back when you are ready to fill out the paperwork. She gives you straight forward opinions, and makes the types of recommendations that a real estate professional should. Buying and selling a home is stressful and emotional! Jayne helps to make it more enjoyable and comfortable process because she empowers you with realistic expectations and market knowledge. In my home buying process I encountered plenty of agents- most just expect a quick commission, telling me the market is hot and won't cool off anytime soon, and offering nothing more than the advice to up my offer and drop my contingencies. Jayne isn't that type of agent. She's been through market cycles, seen the rapid growth in the area, and works for her client first and foremost. Bottom line: If you are looking to buy, sell or even just rent in Woodside, you should talk to Jayne.

She made everything as easy as one could expect and hope for with a real estate transaction, especially when we as sellers were doing it all remotely. You could tell she's done this many times before and has a good system. She handled all the details smoothly and promptly, gave us appropriate phone numbers to call when needed, had good and reasonable vendors at the ready, arranged for the appropriate repairs, arranged for effective and reasonably priced staging, made document signing easy and convenient, and gave good advice in terms of what to repair and what could be left as is. Critically, she was able to read the market and guide us in terms of pricing and strategy. All put together, these elements helped maximize the price we were able to get, and in a reasonable timeframe. We were very happy with the entire experience, as well as the result. Thank you, Laura!

Laura's strong presence and connections are invaluable in today's market, as she's constantly aware of which homes are coming on the market and potential buyers for our home. When Laura came to see our property, she immediately dived in--educating us about her strategy and the best timing to sell. What made the selling process even more streamlined was that she had a team of contractors on hand to help prepare the home for sale and maximize its value. You can truly see Laura's dedication to her work in the way she frequently stops by our property to ensure it remains clean and presentable. We couldn't have asked for a better agent to sell our home for top dollar--her strategy is key to making any home she touches stand out.

We moved to the peninsula less than a year ago and started renting with the plan to buy a house in…read morethe coming year or two. When we interviewed realtors we were drawn to Raziel because it felt like every question we had was answered and backed up by data-driven analyses. We were also really intrigued by his unconventional process that is extremely involved in the beginning. Coming from out of state we learned so much about the area and what kinds of properties we could expect for our budget in each neighborhood we were interested in. This allowed us to really hone in our search and made the process less stressful because at that point we knew exactly what we wanted and were prepared for the right house to come along. During this time Raziel also guided us through the process of understanding buying a turn-key property vs. something that would need renovations. When we found our ideal property, we were a little anxious because it was an off-market Hillsborough house. But Raziel was quick to move and get us a showing and guide us to make the right offer for the property. It was complicated, as some off-market listings can be, but it was Raziel's strong relationship with the listing agent that helped our offer prevail. We have to say that every time we saw a house and the listing agent heard we were working with Raziel they had a genuinely warm reaction that made it obvious he is well-liked and respected in his field. Also, Raziel knew our plan was to buy in the 1-2 year range and we never felt pressure to move that timeline up. Instead, for every house we considered putting an offer on, Raziel gave us a thorough discussion of all the reasons why someone would not want to buy the house, and that helped us really decide if it was the right property for us. It always felt like he truly wanted to find us the right house for our family, not just make a business transaction. We feel so grateful that we worked with Raziel and his team to find our ideal property (thank you Jenny and Angilee!).

In the Peninsula's competitive market, we couldn't believe it! As first time home buyers, we were looking for someone deeply knowledgeable who could guide us through the entire process: from understanding local neighborhoods and why buyers might choose one over the other, narrowing down our criteria along with what's realistic in our budget, doing diligence when the right house pops up, and navigating the offer process. We didn't know what we didn't know, and we really wanted an expert. Raziel was exactly who we were looking for! He has a very well-structured process that we loved - touring neighborhoods, looking at past sold homes together, and moving quickly when the right house pops up. I really enjoyed learning as much as I could from Raziel, as he has so much local knowledge that I would never have learned otherwise. For the home we ultimately purchased, he suggested bringing an engineer on-site to take a look at the house before we submitted our offer. He also flagged an unusual item in the seller's disclosure packet that he hadn't seen before and recommended reviewing it with a real estate attorney. We followed both suggestions. Everything checked out, and because of that diligence, we felt confident submitting our offer. We would not have taken those extra steps without his guidance. Raziel truly de-risked the process as much as possible. By offer day, we felt informed and prepared. We love our home and are incredibly grateful for Raziel and his team. We can't recommend them highly enough!
