We worked with another realtor in the East Bay for months before making the decision to work with another team. It was a tough decision at the time, but in hindsight we wish we would have made it much sooner. Laura, Danielle, and Jeffrey were extremely knowledgeable, but what we found most helpful was that they did not sugar coat or beat around the bush. We were looking for direction, and we got it. This was all the more important to us as first time time home buyers. We have since recommended them, and will continue to do so. I'd like to highlight how above and beyond Jeffrey Vu went in his work with us. There was literally nothing this man would not do to help us out during the process. Jeffrey - a sin…

I have to give a shout out to Laura, Danielle, Jeffrey, and Julia, the mighty team that helped us with selling our Oakland home. We were in a bit of a rush, and they were so helpful with identifying contractors to get the property ready, recommending staging firms and landscapers as well. We were kept informed on progress on our home, despite being out of the area for a time. They were responsive and so helpful. I can't recommend them enough for your real estate needs.

We feel so lucky to have found Laura and DanielleThey put us at ease from our first visit with them. We appreciated Laura's confidence and experience. Danielle's eye for design was evident. They were very clear and helpful on what we should to our home before selling it. Danielle went above and beyond getting materials and being present for contractors. Laura and Danielle exceeded our expectations and made rehabbing and selling our beloved home an easy and quick experience. We would not hesitate to use them again in the future.

Laura and Company are a full-service team. They orchestrated getting my house ready for sale, contacted vendors, gathered resources for me, organized my move, and know the neighborhood. When the interest rates rose in this difficult market, they knew exactly what to do to close the sale. I highly recommend their professionalism!

Laura is super responsive even when she's out of town. I can't wait to work with her on this project and future investment projects as well. Thank you for taking my call earlier.

We bought our new house and sold our old house with Laura Martell and her team and they helped us in every way (and way beyond) at every step of the process. I HIGHLY recommend them. We met Laura when we booked an appointment through Redfin to look at an Open House (during Covid). We liked, and felt comfortable with her immediately. Any realtor can walk in and tell you what you want to hear based on how you react to a house, but Laura knows what to look for in terms of structural issues, market, etc. There were quite a few houses where she just said, "I wouldn't let you buy this house." Not knowing much about electrical, plumbing, etc. myself (I thought those things just grew when you planted a house), s…

Not knowing much about electrical, plumbing, etc. myself (I thought those things just grew when you planted a house), she made me feel very secure that we would know what we were getting ourselves into, especially if we chose a home that needed work. Also, we never felt rushed, nor did she ever try to talk us into anything. Over the course of a year, we made offers on four houses, and in the end, we got the one that was the best of all of them in terms of how it fits our needs. They connected us with a loan broker and contractors, then once we were in contract, helped us to fix up our old house, stage it, and get it on the market. I know the word "team" is used in business every day now. But the Team of Laura Martell, Danielle Clements, Jeffrey Vu and Julia Tinloy brought that word to life. Each brought different, and complementary skills to the table. Not only do they know their stuff, but they were fun and a pleasure to work with. I would not hesitate to work with them again, as either a buyer or seller.
