Julie Scheff

It has been a pleasure to work with Julie Scheff . She has helped us understand CalStrs loans, foreclosures, short sales, and just about everything related to the Bay Area real estate process. Even despite numerous set backs from short sale craziness, Julie managed to believe in our ability to get a home. She has been a tireless advocate, and a loyal agent in helping us find the perfect home for my wife and I. Julie has a strong ability to gauge the interest in properties, and was able to help us navigate the subtle and nuanced language of acquiring a home for first time home buyers. She was both patient and diligent in locating homes that fit our budget and big dreams. Julie is a enthusiastic, intelligent, and loyal real estate agent, one that you can be sure will go the extra mile to help make home ownership a reality.
Julie Scheff was truly a joy to work with and we look forward to recommending her to all of our friends.

Kerri Naslund

I have known Kerri Naslund for about 10 months and have learned about the unique and effective strategies Kerri and her team have developed to help people address real estate issues.  It could be a home purchase at market rate.  It could be related to threat of foreclosure.  Or it could be related to a short sale of a home underwater -- when someone has a threat of foreclosure and then damage to their credit rating.  Kerri Naslund and Bay Area Short Sale Angels has done miracles for a high percentage of her clients because they are experts and have established the right connections with financial institutions.  Regular real estate deals require a lot of paperwork.  The short sale process is even more particular, and very few agents do it often enough to really get things done, let alone in a timely fashion.  You won't go wrong with Kerri and her team!

Sammy Hastings

My husband met Sammy at an open house in Millbrae, CA.  He came home and told me that he met an agent who was specialized in the area of short sales and foreclosures.  Having gone through couple of agents around who had been trying to sell themselves to us, I was not much interested esp. that I was looking into east bay and that Sammy was more focused on west bay.

My husband suggested that we meet with Sammy for one time.  I agreed.  We met Sammy in his office.  Talking to him, he seemed very passionate and enthusiastic and serious about what he does.  I already felt a go..go nature in him.  Something about him that clicked that made us feel that it is worth giving him a chance to come to east bay esp. that we had started concentrating more around Tri-Valley area.

Journey from there has been wonderful. Sammy is truly a 24/7 agent except when he sleeps or eats. He educates on the house, direction of the house and house number.  He is on top of things and always responds either via phone or email.  I still wonder how he does it.

Alan Morcos, Pacific Union

In June, Alan showed  me a foreclosure unit, which 4 long months later is now my first home in California.  He was nothing short of a perfect realtor. That is a BIG statement with all the details that come with buying a foreclosure!!

He followed up on so many details with the bank, the seller and the contract, and gave me daily updates.

Alan also gave me references for almost anything you can think of, as the entire condo had tobe re-modeled, Plumber, floors, painter, blinds, etc.

His backround in accounting gave me a comfort level on the contract side ofthe transaction, he always had my best interest first and foremost.

I have already referred Alan and will continue to do so.  Buying a home is not an easy experience.  Alan should be commended for his patience, knowledge, honesty and warm trusting personality.

David Klein - Prudential California Realty

I give David Kline five stars.  In this economic slump, my home was one of those that had entered foreclosure.  David Kline saved the house from going into complete foreclosure saving the sale by going to bat for me and negotiating all that was required to get my home sold and the tax man off my back.  He also helped to clean the grounds and rented the van to help me move and to get the trash out of the home.  David Kline's personable demeanor eased the anxiety associated with the sale of my home and helped me to complete the transaction.  I trust David Kline fully and you should to if you want a trustworthy representative to sell your home.  I was able to move on without any unfinished business after my home was sold, thanks to David Kline and his expertise.
