Real Estate near Castro Valley

“Watkins Real Estate is an amazing company that I fully trusted through my Real Estate transaction. I would and I have recommend them to my family and friends. Great people and very timely.“

“From the beginning Khrista, Laura and her team were exceptionally communicative, organized and professional. We live out of state and worked with them remote. This was by far the best experience we have ever had in selling a home. They are knowledgeable about the market and were strategic in pricing our home. We were amazed by the updates and staging to our home that really made our home show well. The entire updating process was well thought out and again very organized. When it came time to accept offers, we felt very confident in their ability to negotiate and always felt that they had our best interest as their top priority. Our home closed for $250,000 over asking thanks to the Jarvis Team!“

“We used Robert as buyers and sellers. As buyers he got us our home amongst many other interested buyers. As sellers, Robert is very conscientious to get the top money for our home. He is experienced (knows real estate!) and follow up on current affairs that is real estate related and very informative. He works with you to make you happy, is a positive person and someone you want on your side in Real Estate. His assistant Kelly is very efficient and pleasant to work with. Highly Recommend!“

“Roh is one of the best real estate agents out there! He supported us with selling our home in Dublin. He is patient, knowledgeable and walked us through every step of the process. His friendly, kind and positive attitude made it easy for him to connect with potential buyers. He was able to find the perfect buyer and he worked hard all the way to the end… even while he was on vacation! We were so lucky to have Roh represent us!“

Her passion for excellence in customer service is not just a professional trait but a heartfelt dedication to making dreams come true.

“I listed my mother's house in Fremont with Rosalind and Coldwell-Banker. I have worked in a real estate associated industry and have been around many agents. I cannot say enough good things about Rosalind. Her professionalism, efficiency, and knowledge of the market is top notch. I would recommend her services to any friend or, really anybody, that wants to get top dollar for their property. We received 5 offers in 7 days and sold well over the listing price. Rosalind doesn't miss a detail!“

“It's hard to truly capture in words how grateful we are to have had Tess as our agent. From the moment we were put in contact with Tess, we instantly felt encouraged in starting the process with her. She was very professional and incredibly helpful. We were first-time buyers and pretty specific in what we wanted and our price point. Tess worked with us to find areas we liked and even suggested areas we might want to live in. She was always readily available and prompt in answering our endless questions and addressing all of our concerns. Tess was even incredibly patient in answering questions that, as first time buyers, we felt were probably questions some might have dismissed, but she never once made us feel our questions were irrelevant. When we first met Tess, she said her aim was to get us a home that we would love and that we would be happy in. After working with her for 4 months, we believe that was absolutely true. Tess went above and beyond what we would expect an agent to do, even when it may not have been in her best interest. An example of this was when we told her that we were also considering a new build, which would mean that she would not need to represent us and therefore get no commission. Tess sent us a list of questions we should ask, and even went to the area and gave us feedback! Just a testament to her commitment to truly wanting to help us find a home. We highly recommend Tess as an agent to anyone, as our experience was made so much more memorable because of her and her amazing team. Every person we dealt with was so helpful, patient and available. To sum it up, Tess is the best! * Tess is a person who is genuine and lives by her word. She was honest and kept our expectations real, which was something we highly valued. Buying a home is a rollercoaster but having an agent who is sound, honest and can walk you through the process really made things so seamless. * Tess is a closer. Once we realized where we wanted to live and what we wanted from our home, she went above and beyond in finding us that home; reaching out to agents in the area as well as potential sellers. She delivered by getting us the home we wanted, in the area we wanted and at the price point we wanted. To note too, this was all in a market where inventory was low. * Tess is well-regarded in her field. We came across a couple instances where we would visit a home and the agent would ask if we were working with someone. When we mentioned Tess, nothing but good things were said about her. It truly made us feel proud to have her as our agent.“

“If you're looking for professionalism, knowledge, and a willingness to go over and above the standard, Pat and Paul are your team! Their strategy and hard work paid off for us, and what could have been a long and frustrating process turned out to be painless, ending with a generous offer above asking. Highly recommend!“

“I can't recommend Daniel Young and his team highly enough! As first-time homeowners, Daniel made the entire process incredibly smooth and stress-free. He and his team were there for us every step of the way, advocating on our behalf and ensuring that our interests were always prioritized. The Young team's expertise and dedication truly made a difference, and we're so grateful for his help in finding our perfect home. We've been so impressed that we've referred the Young team to all our friends and family.“

“Jon has helped us with 8 transactions in the last 20+ years. Jon treated us like family and always had our best interest as top priority. Jon has been a great referral source for real estate related vendors including referring us to our home builder as well as our pool contractor. My husband and I have referred several friends and family to Jon for their real estate needs as we knew Jon would take care of them.Sara Maita“

“I don't know why I didn't post sooner but James sold my mothers home a couple of years ago . He was fun ,straight forward and hard working. It was an estate to be divided among four of us with some of the disputes that are expected , no greed just my sister from out of state thought every home in California is worth at least a million. My moms was old and run down. James was patient while we tried prices that we all new [except my sister] were unrealistic and eventually came to a price that sold. It was exactly what James thought it was worth. If she had listened we could have sold it 6 months sooner but thats ok we have peace and an she is happy. She also thought James was great what a patient man she said. If I sell anything again I'll be calling Shamrock. Phil and Debi Brooks“

“Shirley and Scott were introduced to me by a close friend's family members who have worked with them for multiple real estate transactions. As a first time home buyer, I was completely clueless and nervous about the entire process, but I am so glad that I chose them to be my buying agents as they made the process way less stressful. When I first connected with Shirley, she talked me through the steps and was so patient to explain everything and answer all my questions no matter how basic or silly they may have been. You can certainly tell how much they value their clients because they make sure they are available to you no matter what.It is no surprise that Shirley and Scott have a credible reputation in the Bay Area, especially in the Tri-Valley area. They helped connect me with mortgage lenders who they trusted would help me become a more competitive buyer. For example, one of the lenders they worked with had a special rate program for first time home buyers and Shirley was quick to introduce me to them as she knew it was an opportunity we couldn't miss. This lender had the most competitive rate during the time when market rates were quickly rising and I was able to lock in a lower rate to help me obtain the most affordable monthly payments. I couldn’t have asked for a better referral.When it was time to finally look at properties, Shirley asked me exactly what I was looking for as part of my buying criteria and shared potential listings with me. Scott and Shirley went above and beyond to research as much information about a property that I showed interest in and let me know all the pros and cons before I made any decisions. They never pressured me or rushed me into deciding anything and reassured me when I was feeling overwhelmed. When they showed me one of their sold listings that fulfilled my dream home criteria, I asked that they help me find one with similar features and Shirley knew right away what my style was. Low and behold, the perfect dream home went on the market and I immediately reached out to ask how to best make a competitive offer. Shirley and Scott were conscientious of finding the best value for the home and applied their knowledge with a buyer focus strategy to negotiate the best price for me. I was able to get my offer accepted (at a price lower than market listing) quicker than I expected due to their guidance and reputable connection in the real estate network.I am sincerely grateful for all the time and support that they put into my first home purchase and I know they would do the same for anyone who is looking to sell or buy a property!“

“Behan did an outstanding job on the sale of our home. He was very responsive at all times and worked with us to market the home appropriately. He made sure to check with us and list all the attractive aspects of the home, so the information was readily available to potential buyers. And, we had a contract on the home in only 6 days! I highly recommend Behan!“

“David exceeded our expectations in selling our parent’s home. We chose him for his experience but he also stood out from the other realtors that seem more interested in marketing themselves and their “teams” than the homes they’re entrusted to sell. He immediately put me at ease when discussing the details and challenges of preparing the house for sale with his unassuming professionalism and genuine understanding.

After deciding on a contractor, David took all of the responsibilities of the renovation off of my plate and transformed the house beautifully, resulting in multiple bids and a contract after a weekend on the market, not to mention getting over $200k over asking price (no pressure, David;). Also if you’re smart, you’ll choose Deemer Development to renovate, extremely meticulous and skilled at reno.

I can’t thank David enough for his effort. He came through in the biggest way!“

“What can I say.. The Costales Team has done it again for our family! They had our best interest in mind during the process and exceeded our expectations. They knew what we were looking for in a home, they executed, and represented us well even through the challenges. If we decide to sell or purchase again, we will definitely reach out to them.“

“Lily is very professional. She always points right direction and provides information that is most relevant. She does not push while making final decision. Thanks to her experience we were finally able to secure contract to dream house. I will definitely recommend her to friends.“

“Julia and her great team are FANTASTIC!!! They made the selling process so easy and helped us understand what was happening every step of the way. She went above and beyond to help us during every stage of the process. We couldn’t be more happy with the service we received from Julia and will definitely recommend her to everyone we know!“

“I'd recommend Jason to anyone looking for a home in the bay area! His knowledge of the the market is impressive! We are new residents of the US and it could be very intimidating and confusing just navigating the entire system, moreso looking for a new house as first time buyers. Jason guided us through the process of buying and was always available to answer questions we had along the way. He is very professional, knowledgable of the market, kind and easy to work with and immediately we knew he was someone we can trust to help us make the right decisions. Soon as we found the right home, we were able to close in less than 30 days. Today, he continues to guide and help us and always gives his 100% attention to our needs. We are very thankful and lucky to have met him. I highly recommend Jason if you are looking for an agent.“

“Nothing but GOLD! First and foremost, Greg was the absolute best part of our entire buying experience. Communication was always top notch from start to finish. He helped us hone in on exactly what we wanted very quickly, and came up with a great strategy for what is one of the most competitive markets in the country. We NEVER thought we could become homeowners in the Bay Area honestly. Not only did Greg make it happen, but he made it quick and painless. Showings were fun and honest, and we learned a lot as he gave us his insight on each house we walked through. The house we ultimately chose is one we would have never discovered on our own. Even after we closed he was still checking in on us, and even gave us an amazing gift for our new home. I can't imagine having a better person on your side than Greg Silva.“

“When we sold our home, there was a lot going on in our lives. Robert Costa came when we called him. He absolutely made selling the house so much easier than it could've been. He responded to all of our questions, he did everything that we asked of him. I think we got a better price because of him, and he, just took care of us. He helped a lot with our community requirements to get the house in shape to sell, and he was there when we had all of the inspections. He was our support. He was never impatient with our multiple calls and requests. He's just a prince.“

“Natalia is a kind, helpful, and professional real estate agent. Whatever questions, concerns, or tasks I needed done, she was always on top of them and responding to me within minutes. Not only is she great at her job, but she also cares about you and meeting your goals. She is so fierce that she was even able to negotiate a good amount of seller credits for me in this market! I'm a first-time home buyer and I have to say that Natalia couldn't have made the process any smoother. I always felt comfortable because I knew that I could count on her. Conor even stepped in to take me through a super last-minute showing when Natalia couldn't make it there. If you're thinking about working with The Dunn Team, do it now! You'll have a real estate agent AND a friend.“

“As a first time home buyer, I knew I needed someone who is patient and can answer all my questions every step of the way. Rich was easily available over the phone or through text any time of the day to explain different parts of the home buying process, while also being encouraging and personable. I highly recommend Rich and his team!“

“Dana was instrumental in easing the sale process in the sale of my father's home. With every step, she made sure my every detail was covered to prepare the home for sale and showcase all of it's highlights. My family is incredibly thankful for her thorough-ness to ensure the process went well for all involved. Thank you Dana, you've been wonderful to work with. I consider you a friend to our family, and incredibly talented in your real estate expertise! What a pleasure to work with you.“

“Monica was great! She’s very knowledgeable & the service is A plus. Would love to work with her again in the future for my next real estate purchase. We are grateful to have her.“

“Sarina was like a member of our family, available and guiding us through every critical decision during the purchase of our first house. There was not one single time we had a doubt that we chose a wrong agent. We took about a year and half to take the final decision and Sarina was patient all throughout learning our requirements and guiding us through. We are very glad we get to work with such an agent of experience and value.“
