Renee, thank you for your services in regards to the sale of our Eichler home in Castro Valley. From the very beginning to the close of escrow, your thoughtfulness and professionalism was always there. You set your priorities on our goal and finished it to our complete satisfaction.

Renee's depth and breadth of knowledge is impressive. She made buying my first home almost painless. She was always incredibly organized and made keeping all the associated balls in the air seem effortless.
Also, she really gets to know her clients needs and tastes - she often knew what I was thinking about a particular property before I could say it! Even after I'd moved in Renee continues to look after me; she's invaluable!

I had never sold or bought a home on my own and Renee was exceptional in guiding me through the process of both selling my old home and buying a new one. She not only helped me sell my home in record time during the market slow down, she listened to what I was looking for in a new home and was able to help me find the most amazing place in the community I desired. Renee, you are truly the Best!!

"Renee sold our house in a horrible market (November, 2008) -- we had an offer 2 days after the house was put on the market, and locked in a backup offer within a week. The understatement of the year would be to say that we were pleasantly surprised. Her market analysis was spot-on and she worked very hard to get our house ready to put on the market, including doing the staging herself. We highly recommend having Renee in your corner!"

"Renee helped me relocate from Colorado to Livermore. We looked at 90 homes on paper and 50 homes in person. She showed me everything I wanted to see in the Tri-Valley area so I really knew the market before I made an offer. When we decided to make an offer, it was well below asking, based on the comparables I had seen.
She guided me through the inspection process to make sure I knew the house before we closed escrow. She referred me to contractors I needed to help make improvements on the home and prepare it for my arrival.
During escrow, while I was back in Colorado packing up, she met the contractors at the house in my absence and facilitated the work I wanted done, so I could focus on my move. She kept in touch with me regularly via email and phone. Overall, it was a great experience."

We couldn't have been more pleased with our REALTOR® Renée. Her advice for getting the house prepared to sell was right on. We had an offer in 3 days! Renée was professional and always available for our many questions and concerns. We know she is the BEST.

Anyone considering buying or selling would be in good hands while working with Renee. I have known Renee for several years. When it came time to find a house, of course, there was no question in my mind who to call!
I was very pregnant at the time, and fortunately for me, Renee has the gift of being able to tune in and know what a person is looking for. She was able to rule out those that she knew weren't right for me but would still indulge me if I wanted to see them anyway. She was always patient and smiling.
When the right house was found she did an outstanding job with the negotiations and assisting us through the closing process. I would like to point out that I am not a novice home buyer, having bought and sold many homes over the years, I know quality care and work when I see it. I am proud to call Renee a friend as well.

I needed a quick home sale ... a tall order in a soft housing market. What I got was a full-price offer in less than a week on market. Renee seemed to shift effortlessly in coming to understand my state of mind and needs. She is savvy about local markets, price points, and staging imagery. She has a cadre of craftspeople available to implement her wonderful ideas for economical improvements. And during a very short two-week escrow, Renee was always there to smooth those little "bumps" that get in the way of closing the deal. I would have to be nuts to look to anyone else for my next home purchase. Thanks, Renee!

Renee made the buying and selling process so simple yet very professional. I appreciated the fact that she listened and tried her best to understand what our wants and desires were in a house. She gave us her professional opinion when we asked and most importantly she was not pushy. She has given us the BEST service I can ask in a realtor. She has gone beyond her call of duty...I would HIGHLY recommend her as your next realtor!

“Getting my rental property ready for sale was a big undertaking. Thanks to your knowledge and expertise, I was able to whip it into shape, have it sparkling for the Broker’s Open House AND sell it with multiple offers. You are honest, hardworking and committed to your clients. Thank you!”
