Elena has the patience of a saint and is a true joy to work with! My wife and I were able to find our first home because of her, and we were impressed by her willingness to go the extra mile and fight for us. We plan to work with her the next time we buy or sell a home and definitely recommend her to anyone trying to find a home. From the first time we met Elena, she has been a true professional. As first time home buyers, my wife and I were notoriously difficult to please and didn't know the process very well. We must have had her investigate a dozen or more homes and show us at least 5-6 of them, texting at odd hours and weekends. Despite this, El...— Oliver Huang
Elena was referred to us by a family friend who is also in real estate. We know him to be very particular in customer service and details, so we trusted his recommendation. And we're so glad we did! We barely have any idea of the process of home-buying here in the US, and you can safely say we needed someone who's extremely patient in explaining how things go, and someone who really knows what they're doing. First of, Elena was very patient with us. From the start, she was there to act quickly, respond promptly, and all throughout the process, was just courteous and calm. She made us feel comfortable to ask questions when there's something that we d...— borjaleasol
We have worked with many real estate agents now both buying here in the Bay Area and buying and selling our previous home. Elena is my favorite out of all of them. Unlike most other agents, she is not at all pushy and does not apply any pressure to buy. Second, she was always willing to provide frank assessments of homes - their potential and estimated value as well as pros and cons. In my experience, this is extremely rare - especially in Bay Area agents who glibly declare the home "is worth whatever you're willing to pay" (*rolls eyes*). On top of that, Elena was incredibly responsive and timely - even with a newborn! - and happy to try creative o...— christopher h martin

First time home buyers, Elena guided us expertly through the entire process, and made it much less painful than what we had been warned about. She was with us every step of the way, and explained to us the process from start to finish; she helped us not only with the open houses, but also with aspects of the loan process. Elena had a very intuitive understanding of what we wanted and needed, and was highly responsive to any requests. Importantly, Elena has a great sense of the market, and her home value estimates were always spot on. Don’t let her warm personality fool you: she can play hardball: her negotiation skills saved us a lot on the final ho...— Buyer
Excellent skills in helping me get this house! I was looking for a condo at first and spend some months looking. Elena was very helpful in showing me some of these condo's. I then later changed my mind and decided on a house. I narrowed my search and found several houses I liked. Elena helped me out on process with offer and counter offers. Helped a lot in getting this property. Even the seller was impressed by how precise her presentation is. When I am on the market to buy or sell. Elena will always be my first person to call !— Buyer
Elena is great. She is very responsive and walked us first time home buyers throughout the whole process. She takes pride in what she does and definitely knows the market. I never once felt pressured to make an offer on a home as she is very patient. She was always happy to show us houses and to help us figure out what worked for us on our budget. There was never a question she could not help me answer! Highly recommend.— Buyer
