Wesley Ko came highly recommended from a friend. He laid out a plan for us to sell my current…read moreapartment and purchase a new house in 6 months (all in Oakland) and he worked very hard to help accomplish that goal. Throughout the process he was patient, responsive and professional. For the sale, Wesley and his teammates were extremely efficient when it came to staging and holding open houses and we were able to sell my apartment after the first scheduled showings. The only really difficult thing I had to do was say goodbye to the apartment and move out. I am extremely picky and so when we began to tour houses, Wesley's patience and eye for details really helped narrow down potential properties that would be a good fit for me and we also struck out a lot of bad ones. Wesley's experience shines during touring. Just to name a few things he has a keen sense of smell for moisture/mold, can feel for the slightest unevenness in floors and can tell good from bad repair work just from a quick glance and feel, he has really seen it all. This is where a whole lot of Wesley's value comes from, he's not just another paper pusher...he actually enjoys looking at houses with clients and he is great at pointing out things that a normal person wouldn't see. Eventually a few months later we were able to close on a new house that was exactly what I was looking for. It was a pleasure to work with Wesley and he was so helpful throughout the entire process. As I said before he is thoughtful, smart, engaged and it's clear he loves what he does and I now recommend him to everyone I know who is looking to buy in the bay area.

I think a 4 1/2 star review would have been more appropriate so I would rate OWN very good. We…read moreengaged Wilson and his team at OWN to sell our home in Millbrae. We interviewed three realtors and we selected Wilson because we agreed with his vision as to how to prepare our home for sale and his assessment of current market conditions. We were very pleased with the decision as we found out that Wilson has a strong team to support the preparation and sales process. A project plan was developed months in advance and for the most part all deadlines were achieved. Luis (contractor) and Priscilia (coordinator) prepared the house for sale on time and on budget. The staging firm did a great job in presenting our home. When necessary Wilson was alway available to answer our questions. The Open Houses took place as we planned months in advance and we were given an update at the end of each weekend. When offers came in Wilson and Cathy (Experttcs) helped us navigate through the negotiation process until we accepted a bid that met our target. We were then introduced to Michele (Director of Ops) and Aldolfo (escrow officer of WFG Title Co.) to guide us through the closing process. Their assistance made the paperwork burden as painless as possible. We were happy with the entire process and impressed with how the Own Team worked together to get the job done. We deducted a 1/2 star because the lateral sewer work mandated by the city was delayed for weeks because the plumber that OWN uses was not available. This caused a delay in closing. My recommendation to OWN is to expand the list of plumbers the company can use. Also, we were assigned an original coordinator with whom we did all the pre-planning. However, when execution time arrived we discovered she left the company. Thankfully Priscilia stepped in and everything worked out fine.

My husband and I could not have asked for a better realtor than Jordan, who helped us find our…read morefirst home. Our home search was a 2-year journey, with 200+ homes viewed and 8 offers before we finally found the right one - and Jordan was the best person to be by our side through it all! Through all the ups and downs, Jordan was an incredible partner. He was endlessly patient, kind, responsive, and most importantly, honest. He consistently brought his expertise and real, current market data so we could make informed decisions. We always felt like he had our best interests at heart. There were countless hours spent touring homes, late-night calls, last-minute questions, and scrambling to put together day-of offers. Jordan handled all of it so smoothly, always going the extra mile to make sure we were taken care of. Even when he was on vacation, his incredible team stepped in without missing a beat. Huge shoutout to Bobby, who was also such a tremendous help throughout the process! Most importantly, we always felt like we were in good hands. Jordan kept us grounded, encouraged us to stay patient, and ultimately guided us to the right home. We are so grateful to have had him throughout the entire home-buying journey. If you're looking for a realtor who is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely cares about his clients, we cannot recommend Jordan enough. His steady guidance and genuine commitment made all the difference throughout our journey and ultimately brought us to the home we're so happy to call our own.

Throughout the process Jordan and his team provided the excellent customer service we expected and was in constant communication with updates. When it came time to put the house on the market Jordan was always prepared with up to date data of home sales and homes on the market in our neighborhood. Jordan is also a very savvy marketer and negotiator and was able to bring us multiple offers over the asking price. A couple situations did arise when selling our home that caused us a little stress but Jordan was very calming and had the experience and knowledge in dealing with stressful situations to guide us to the outcome we wanted.

Vivian was fantastic from start to finish! As first-time home buyers, she made this whole process…read moreway more comfortable than we ever thought possible. She is very friendly and happily answered all our many questions at any time of the day, usually within minutes of asking. She is also very hardworking, organized, knowledgeable, and flexible. She really looked out for us and gave great advice even before we knew what questions to ask. For example, we toured a house together that we really liked, but she noticed a detail that we had overlooked that completely changed our opinion. Working with her feels more like working with a good friend than a random business person. Highly recommend Vivian!

TLDR LOOK NO FURTHER AND JUST CONTACT VIVIAN ALREADY!!…read more If you're deciding amongst agents or just starting your search for an agent for your home purchase, VIvian is the best person to collaborate with. She's extremely personable, friendly, professional, experienced, and reliable when it comes to working with you on finding your home. She actually took the time to listen to us and confirm our budget, walked us through the entire process of how homebuying works and was transparent on everything in between. She asked for our expectations up front and confirmed what we were looking for in a home, showed us what's currently priced in the market, and even tailored weekly emails on home reports and any off markets that were in our price range. After an open house, it wasn't a question of "would you like to put an offer?" but more of a "how did you feel about the home, did you like anything about it or did anything stand out?" type of question to show she actually cared about our home search process. Any questions we had, she was able to answer. She didn't give any BS responses and if we had questions during our bidding process she would make sure eveyrthing was addressed. One thing we truly appreciated about Vivian is the fact that she gave us her honest opinons as well - she knew we originally were looking for a SFH but my wife and I were considering the idea of a townhome and went to a couple open houses; Vivian immediately gave us pros and cons to both and gave us her opinion and important things to factor in. If it wasn't for Vivian, we probably would've settled and been living in regret right now!! I seriously appreciate people like Vivian. She really made us feel comfortable with our decisions and was by our side fighting for us and represented us in such an excellent demeanor. If you're reading this.. Thank you for helping us find our first home, Vivian!! You're definitely getting all my referrals in the future and I hope we remain friends!!
