I reached out to the property management team and I was really impressed with how quickly they handled my work order. They called in a plumber who found the toilets were older and the tanks have equipment that was corroding. They quickly got in touch with the homeowner and we had replacement toilets approved without any hassle or delay. I do my best to take good care of the property, but things happen, and it's reassuring to know the management team is responsive, maintenance issues seriously. I'd like to personally thank Manuel Gonzalez for his continued follow up with my work order

The homeowners association uses this company, and they absolutely don't do any maintenance,…read morecleaning whatsoever. They don't even respond to emails when you have questions, and they simply collect the HOA dues from time to time. They've changed the billing collection company, so every time you have to figure out how to pay the new dues. The billing software that you use has lots of bugs, so even if you set it to auto-pay, it will keep charging you additional fees. I am truly sorry if this is a company you have to deal with. If any HOA board members are reading this, please do not sign up this company to manage your building. It will get absolutely trashed. They will not do any maintenance or upkeep, and your property values will plummet.

I mistakenly parked in the parking lot adjacent to this business, which happens to be in a lot shared with residences. There is a sign that says that the spots next to the office are for commercial use, but does not specify Montalvo Realty. I was visiting a business right next door and thought it was fine. He came running out of the office asking me to stop and move my car. I asked him about signs and he said they were posted and started yelling at me, "We will tow you! We will tow you!" He was acting unhinged. I moved my car and did notice the signs afterward (though, really, they are not clear). Anyway, he could have accomplished the same thing without being so crazy and rude. I was not rude or obnoxious at all to elicit this kind of response.

Intero Real Estate Saratoga brokerage firm and JALEH TAGHIPOUR sold our NEW house at 14920 Sobey Rd…read moreSaratoga for 25% ($3,000,000) less than the asking price, and 20% less than the comp across the street (old house). She DISCLOSED DEATHS (SEE PICTURE) that had occurred MORE than 36 months prior to listing, whereas that's NOT required by law. She disclosed those deaths AFTER she met the buyer at the first open house! It turned off other buyers, and then she forced us to drop the price TWICE. Reader may verify price drops online. She kept the names of other potential buyers from us so they would not bring competing offers. We hired this agent because she was cheap (1.5% commission), but cheap costs us dearly. Beware of desperate agents as there's a reason they don't get listings. Early in the listing we decided to FIRE JALEH TAGHIPOUR and INTERO REAL ESTATE because she wasn't showing to the showing appointments, but they threatened litigation against us. Yes, JALEH AND INTERO Saratoga wanted to file a lawsuit against their own client! Department of Real Estate informed us that JALEH TAGHIPOUR is under INVESTIGATION by the Fines & Citation division (SEE PICTURE). In another transaction, we received multiple offers but then she requested (SEE PICTURE) another $26,000 (0.5%) in commission AFTER the offers came in, which is ILLEGAL. We've now spent five figures money in lawyer fees litigating against JALEH TAGHIPOUR and Intero Saratoga so we can recoup our losses. First loss of equity, and now expensive lawyer fees to recoup losses. Conclusion: If you have to hire Intero Saratoga and specifically, JALEH TAGHIPOUR, be ready for loss of your home's equity and have at least $100,000 in legal fee reserves to hire a lawyer.

Twelve years later, here we are again with the Alex Aung Cupertino Real Estate Consultant team…read more In a world rushing toward AI for every answer, what stood out this time is something no algorithm can replicate: human judgment, patience, and care. Alex never once pushed us to make an offer. He did the opposite, asking quiet questions that helped us figure out what we actually needed in a home, and what we could live without. Yuchi made sure our finances were rock-solid before we wrote anything. She reminded us to budget for the nice-to-haves and steered us clear of money pits. Before submitting our offer, Alex walked us through the comps he'd prepared and, surprisingly, suggested we go in lower. In a moment when ceasefires get torn up every other week and the world feels uncertain, that lower number turned out to be exactly right. Behind the scenes, Alex paired our written offer with a strong verbal follow-through. We were shielded from the rest. Accepted as written. Two offers with Alex and Yuchi, 12 years apart. Both accepted on the first attempt. Yuchi is now voluntarily and unofficially project-managing our Sunnyvale home upgrade, taking time out of her schedule to visit stores and walk through options with us like it's her own place. Whether you're house hunting in the Bay Area, casually browsing, or just uncertain about whether now is the right time, reach out to Alex. You'll know right away you're in good hands.

Buying/selling a home in the Bay area can be crazy and stressful and we couldn't have done without…read moreAlex Aung Cupertino Real Estate team. We've both purchased and sold multiple properties with them all in Silicon Valley area and every time it has been nothing, but smooth experience and they exceeded our expectations. They are very experienced with entire Bay Area especially San Jose real estate market, which makes their expertise invaluable for us. We found that their incredibly detailed home price technical analysis report, prior to each offer we made is extremely useful and is very precise, unbiased, and well aligned with today's rapidly moving market and this ultimately guide us in securing our dream house confidently knowing we did not over bid more than needed to be in the game of bidding war in such a current competitive market. They also took their time to thoroughly review each inspection reports and disclosures with us, prior to each offer we make to make sure the property of interest has no hidden major repairs or red flags before proceeding with our offers . This again gives us great confidence in deciding whether to proceed with our offer or not. There were a few times they stopped us from proceeding further with offer due to costly foundation repair although the home is visually appealing on open house visit and other time with city's natural gas pipeline being too close to the back yard. There are many other incidences where their unbiased input was critical to our decision making on offer. They make sure that we as home buyer make the ultimate call on what price to offer with best of our interest. They work very transparently and truly have their client's interest at heart every step of the way in our home buying journey. From the get-go, they introduced us to a loan officer, proven track record of closing many home loans in a given time with best interest rate, from a competitive mortgage lender to get our pre-qualified loan approved, identifying our desired locations based on our family needs, help reviewing the reports and disclosures for red flags or negotiating and presenting relentlessly with seller on our offer to get it accepted in this multiple bid situations. What separate Alex Aung Cupertino Real Estate team from many other real agents in the Bay area is that they did not stop looking out for their clients right after the escrow is closed. When we needed to remodel our new house, they introduced us to their trusted and pool of resources, from their home builder network from structural engineer, licensed contractors, handymen, plumbers, heating/cooling electricians, painters and etc. They stepped-in and negotiated every quote for us. Just to make sure we are not getting ripped off and also get the best quality work for the amount money we needed to spend that give us ultimate peace of mind. Overall, we had great experience working with them every time. We will definitely go back and ask them to represent as our real estate agent next time whether home buying or selling comes along. We would not hesitate to recommend them to anybody.
