TESTIMONIALS & REVIEWS
“Erica was so enthusiastic and patient throughout the entire home buying process. It was our first home and she was great about giving us different options and travelling to all sorts of far-flung locations in the Bay Area so that we could find the perfect home to fit our needs. She was extremely responsive and available and was great at getting us in touch with the right people to take care of the many pieces that need to be in place for such a large purchase. She also knew the local market extremely well and was able to give us valuable perspective whenever we had questions. I'd highly recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home.”

“Erica was amazing from start to finish. We live abroad now, which made the process complex, but Erica took control of the situation and put our minds at ease. She coordinated everything, suggested renovations to boost our property value, and then oversaw the work on top of handling all sales-related logistics. Her deep knowledge of the general Oakland market, the nuances of our neighborhood, and what renovations would bring the highest return on investment directly led to us getting a selling price for our home that was higher then we had hoped for.”
