"Outstanding service! "Top notch!"…read more From the very first meeting with Julie and Mark Wyss I felt they were professional and understood the market and how to get the best outcome for me.  As well their staff,  Bianca, Elsa, and Trina,  kept me up to date on each step of open houses, stats of the area, prospective buyers to the condo  always  attentive and helpful, making my experience exceptional. Everyone was reliable, ethical, transparent and straightforward taking time to answer my concerns and educate me through the entire process. I absolutely appreciate this group and will keep in touch for future real estate needs and their friendship.

Having used Julie for past real estate transactions, I expected standard professional service…read more Instead, this experience was an absolute disaster. Julie is entirely volume-driven, prioritizing the quick close over client satisfaction. The moment the paperwork was signed, her polite demeanor vanished, replaced by a rude, entitled, and volatile attitude--culminating in her yelling at me. She pressured me to sign an error-riddled contract just to protect her weekend, yet expected me to drop everything the moment she chose to text or call. Furthermore, her team is unreachable on weekends, she refuses to communicate after 6:00 PM, and her staging team brought in dirty, cheap, and scruffy furniture that actively detracted from my home's value. The situation escalated to the point where I had to bypass Julie entirely and contact her managing broker. Her boss ultimately had to step in to handle the final details so I no longer had to subject myself to her unprofessionalism. Save yourself the stress and look elsewhere. Note on the inevitable response: Julie will likely reply with her boilerplate script about "welcoming constructive criticism" and claiming we "parted ways by mutual agreement." Do not be fooled--this wasn't a simple "bad match," it was a complete failure of basic professional conduct.

For the next 10 years she stayed in touch - as we outgrew our home, she helped us assess our options. Once we found the next perfect home, she worked to get ours ready for its next new family.

Paul and Kathleen Zech never told their clients, the sellers, about my desire to make an offer…read more They purposely would not accept a written offer due to made up excuses about disclosures not being done. Then a couple days later the house was under contract. Whoa?! What happened? Months later was able to contact the sellers who confirmed they were not made aware of our verbal offer and interest. The sellers also confirmed their surprise that they only received one offer. What was the source of the offer? It came conveniently from a buyer represented by another agent in the same Coldwell Banker Soquel office. Hmmm. Shady much? So what's the conclusion? Well, if you're a seller who wants to hire an agent to restrict your universe of buyers and increase the odds that you sell the house for much lower than top price, call Paul and Kathleen Zech. They are perfect for that.

In my career I have worked with many title and escrow companies over the years, and the Ramos Team…read moreand Cornerstone Los Gatos truly stands out as the best. From start to finish, the level of professionalism, communication, and care are always far beyond what I've experienced elsewhere. Our escrow officer, Charlene Ramos, is phenomenal. She is incredibly knowledgeable, detail-oriented, and patient. Every question is answered clearly, and she is always available to help any client or agent with their needs. Charlene keeps all parties updated without us even having to ask. She makes a complex process feel smooth and stress-free. I have never met another escrow officer who cares as much as she does and she is just the best there is. Not only do they have the best escrow officer but their rep Suzanne Borg is amazing as well.

She is always the first one to check in and make sure there is nothing myself or my clients need and she always make sure we are up to date on what is happening and how we can improve our businesses staying ahead of title/ escrow changes.

We couldn't be happier with Nicole! It's easy to see why she's a top 1% realtor…read more Buying our new home was a piece of cake, but selling our old home was a much bigger challenge. The market was tough, and we had a particularly difficult buyer who often ignored the advice of his own realtor. Nicole navigated every twist and turn with professionalism, patience, diplomacy, and grace. She kept everything moving forward, handled the challenges without ever losing her cool, and ultimately got everyone happily across the finish line. We're incredibly grateful to have had Nicole in our corner and would recommend her without hesitation!

Nicole did an exceptional job selling my condo in Newark, and I truly cannot recommend her highly…read moreenough. From our very first conversation, she provided thoughtful, strategic advice on the improvements that would deliver the greatest return on investment before listing. She didn't just tell me what to do. She explained why it mattered and how it would impact buyer interest and marketability. Nicole provided staging and marketing materials that showcased the property beautifully and helped it stand out in a competitive market. Throughout the process, Nicole was honest, knowledgeable, and incredibly responsive. When offers came in, she provided clear, data-driven feedback and valuable market insights that helped me make informed decisions with confidence. I always felt she had my best interests in mind. What impressed me most was her ability to navigate challenges. During escrow, my HOA had just become unwarrantable, which created financing obstacles for potential buyers. Rather than letting the transaction fall apart, Nicole worked tirelessly with the buyer and their agent to identify solutions and secure financing. Her persistence, expertise, and problem-solving skills were instrumental in getting the deal closed. I should mention that Nicole was also my agent when I bought my condo in 2016. She took my mom out to look at houses and brought me back to ones that they thought were a good match for me. She helped me with an offer that would be comfortable with my finances and even set me up with a highly responsive local lender. We were not the highest bid, but Nicole positioned our offer in a way that made us the winning bid.

Jerry was such a pleasure to work with. I inquired about a property on Zillow not thinking much…read moreabout it, and Jerry contacted me right away to get me in for a viewing. I liked him straight away and we decided to work together to buy my first house in the Sunset in SF. The market was very competitive of course, but Jerry kept me pushing to keep trying. Other realtors I spoke with always had nice things to say about Jerry. And it helped that he was acquainted with the selling agent in the house that I ended up getting. I would definitely recommend Jerry and would work with him again in the future. The whole team at Oldham was very resourceful too, especially when reviewing disclosures and submitting offers.

Our case was a bit…read morecomplicated that required additional attention, and I was getting the impression that Sharon and Mary understood my ask and would process it as soon as possible as they promised over the phone. But to the end, email after email and calls after calls, they delayed my escrow fund for 7 days which is lot of money with today interest rate. And they never responded my email when asking for confirmation. I usually don't have any good or bad impression on a title company as a home owner. But this is the worst experience I ever have and would strong recommend you stay way from them.

Thank you John Yvara for his excellent customer service and bringing his skills to the table!…read more Although, he had difficulty with the time schedule and getting the company tools together, he pulled through in getting the following done: - Coordinating the sheet rock contractor and finishing with a masterpiece - Tile repair and re-grouting - Vanity sink and faucet installation I found it amazing how John was able to pull off his part of the bathroom project. He came early to get the project done and stayed late to ensure the job was done right the first time. Since this was a State Farm referral, I will keep them on my list of contractors for future repair and remodel projects. This is a privately owned construction company and been around the Bay Area for 50 years. I took away one star for the estimator, Chiara. I wasn't impressed with our rushed appointment. If you're going to inspect a job, please consider the following: - Don't make me wait an extra 45 minutes for our scheduled appointment - Answer all my questions before I feel comfortable about signing the agreement forms. - Don't rush off to your next appointment and make it obvious. She didn't even thank me nor wrap up our inspection on a good note. It felt like a "wham bam thank you Sam" moment.

In addition the vendors they use are horrible too- one vendor damaged my fridge and drapes- and when I kept asserting that they fix the damages - never heard from them! They are horrible to work with. Please save your time, money and sanity by not working with this horrible company. My review is two years too late, but better late than never; I just want to make sure that people don't get hurt (emotionally and financially) dealing with this bad company. There are many companies who are honest and do a decent job.
