I’ve always had the ambition to learn the real estate market because of the value in owning property. In the past, when I would clock into my previous 9-5, I would think to myself what am I doing here? I was very complacent in the position that I was in and I knew that I was destined to be doing something much greater in life.
Throughout my life I always enjoyed helping others anyway I could. Whether it be motivating or creating a plan to help someone achieve their happiness. I began to gear that positivity towards myself and that is when I decided to leave the 9-5 in the past & pursue real estate for my future.
Reliable – You can trust that I will pay attention to detail and ensure that my client is fully aware of every step that is taken. I am here to guide you in the right direction of where you want to be.
Sincere – I understand that buying a home or investing takes on a lot of emotions and I will do my best to make sure that our clients are left very happy.
Ambitious – Being ambitious is the reason why I became an agent. I have a lot of determination to succeed which translates in my work.
The most exciting thing about my work is to be able to assist people with their desires.
You can find me in Tokyo, Japan visiting my family and eating lots of ramen.
I love to travel and indulge in different cultures.
I would want the power to time travel. I always wonder how my parents grew up and how my grandparents raised them. If I could go back in time and watch my mom be a child and watch my grandma take care of her that would bring me lots of joy.

The purpose of life is to be happy and to make whatever dream you have come true by working for it.
Over the years Priscilla has been one of the hardest working and dedicated people I know. I've seen her accomplish many things. Recently I've been thinking about home ownership but wanted to put it off while I gathered my finances. Priscilla assured me that I could start right now! She introduced me to a lender who will help me better prepare for ownership. The conversations alone are inspirational and I appreciate her for going out the way to make sure I was secure with my future decisions.— Jazi Elysse B.
I've always dreamed of owning a home in the Bay Area. Priscilla made those dreams a reality in the most smoothest way possible. We had NO home buying stresses. Just amazing results- Thanks!— Davey M.
If you've ever had a face-to-face encounter with Priscilla, then you would know that her personality is extremely exuberant. I've had the pleasure of knowing her professionally and have been blessed to get the opportunity to get to know her personally. She is an amazing woman in both capacities. With every meeting I've had with her she prides herself on being accountable to others and also learning to serve in the capacity in which is needed at any given time. Her background and culture is one thing that I admire most about her. As a biracial woman, her pride in her culture is exemplified in her everyday life. I've recently had the pleasure of atten...— Stacy C.
Having a young, growing family in the Bay Area I had put the thought of becoming a homeowner in today's market on the back-burner. At the suggestion of a colleague, my husband and I attended a seminar in which we met Priscilla. Priscilla gave us the knowledge, tools, and confidence that we needed to help bring us closer to the goal of owning a home. Her adeptness of the Bay Area market and avenues one can take to achieve the goal of buying a home was what we needed to help us on this journey. Priscilla really seemed to care genuinely which is valuable and rare. She exudes professionalism and is extremely pleasant to work with. I highly recommend her...— bianca l.
Priscilla's extensive knowledge of the Bay Area is very helpful when looking for a house! She has been quick to respond to questions I have may have and always ensures I have a good experience when working with her. Priscilla's dedication shines throughout her work!— Yasmine S.
I have to say, Priscilla is super amazing! She's fast, quick, and responsive. Being a first time home buyer and completely new to the process, she has laid everything out and easy to understand. Her expertise and knowledge reflects in her service! I would recommend Priscilla Izumi to anyone looking for exceptional service, detailed oriented, and service catered to the person/family seeking their own home!— Ang M.
Priscilla did an excellent job taking me through the home buying process especially as an out of towner attempting to navigate the Bay Area market remotely. She was flexible, communicative, and trustworthy. I look forward to working with her again!— Ashley L.
I have had the pleasure of befriending Priscilla just last year and since then she has made my days much brighter. She is genuinely kind, honest and has a great amount of knowledge of the Bay Area that will make her an exceptional realtor. Just within the last few months of knowing her, she has taught me a lot of useful information that has helped me to exceed in my goals. I appreciate Priscilla for introducing me to the necessities for success and look forward to working with her to purchase my home.— Amani S.
We started working with Priscilla earlier this year and closed on our perfect home last week! From day 1, she was personable, patient, and attentive to our interests and last minute tour requests. She understood when we weren't sure about a place and helped us think through our priorities, which was a huge help as first-time buyers. Once we moved into escrow, she coordinated with all the players and helped us move things along! We can't say enough good things about Priscilla, and will be recommending her to our friends and family (and you!).— Manasi K.
Priscilla is highly reliable. Friendly and honest person. My friend was in the middle of the process of purchasing house in California. She has realtor but she sometimes asking questions to Priscilla because she can answer them in Japanese.— M C.
I believe that a person's energy gives the soundest insight on who they are. When I first met Priscilla you could instantly tell that she was genuine, personable, charismatic, and accommodating. Her vibrating positivity seemed to touch everyone at the couple of events I attended.— Natasha S.
Priscilla has always been focused, dedicated, and driven. I trust her like a sister and she will go above and beyond to help others. She keeps a positive attitude while continuing to be honest. She is the definition of beauty inside and out.— Eric M.
Priscilla was great and walked me through the whole process in just a month (yes, really)! I'm a first-time home buyer and she made me feel confident about my choices and was happy to explain each step and answer any questions I had. I didn't think I'd be able to find anything I loved and was reasonable in the bay area during a pandemic, but she helped me actually pull it off!— Hannah C.
What can I say... Priscilla was the best realtors I've ever worked with. She was very knowledgeable and easy to get ahold of. She kept me updated with our transaction, and even when there was bad news to share, the delivery made us feel like she had our best interest at heart. Highly recommend her and her team.— Travis J.
I met Priscilla as a co-worker in a setting that demanded intimate teamwork and a disciplined work ethic. The days our schedule aligned were the easiest, most fluid and efficient work days. Naturally, I also had the opportunity to get to know her personally, as well. In just a short year, I've seen her face the ups and downs with commendable grace, strength, and determination. Likewise, she has been an unwavering pillar of support and positive energy during my own endeavors, becoming my sister and mentor. She is intuitive, mindful, always sharp, and undeterred. I commend her boldness in taking life up with every chapter no matter the scale, all the ...— Jasmin A.
I would highly recommend working with Priscilla Izumi. I never really thought of home ownership being in the cards for me but after meeting Priscilla at a networking event I decided to book a consultation with her to explore options. Priscilla is extremely knowledgeable and gave me so much confidence. She was answering questions I didn't even know I had. By the time we finished talking, I felt like owning a home was something that could really happen for me despite my not being so accustomed to financing. Priscilla was able to lay things out in a way that felt more approachable! She is very professional and overall very trustworthy. I'm now looking ...— Crystal C.
I've know Priscilla for many years now, shes one of the kindest, reliable and honest people I l know. She's extremely knowledgeable and deatail oriented, her great personality makes you feel comfortable and at ease, I'm very fortunate to have her as a resource when it comes to anything real state.— Norma F
Priscilla and I worked on many projects together, during our time living abroad in Tokyo. She displayed her talents and ambition by creating a popular youtube channel (which she starred as the host) and many other vlogs, documenting her unique experiences and dynamic outlook on life. Not only did I observed how committed Priscilla is to achieving her goals, but I realized that "working" with her shouldn't even be called "work," as her warm energy and kindness is so wonderful to be around and she makes every collaborator feel like an essential part of the team. Priscilla is genuine, thoughtful, creative, resourceful, optimistic and so much more. I am...— Sierra V.
Although I'm only taking my first steps towards homeownership (first time buyer courses, etc.) Priscilla has been amazing! She has so much knowledge about the Bay Area market. I absolutely love watching her virtual showings. She answers any and all questions that I pose to her and has really helped me figure out a path to homeownership that at first seemed unreachable. I can't wait to continue working with her in the future.— B R.
Priscilla just helped us close on our first condo. She was super patient and hella responsive whenever we reached out about visiting places/questions about paperwork. We were lucky to have a relator that was able to be sensitive to what we were looking for, and was able to guide us as we slowly figured out exactly what the best match for our price range was. We would highly recommend her for anyone buying or selling a place!— Andrew Y.
It was an absolute dream to work with Priscilla on selling our condo! Priscilla is super smart and strategic, well-connected, kind, patient and thoughtful. She truly made all of the selling process a breeze for us, which was especially appreciated since we were in the process of moving and buying a new place simultaneously. She seamlessly handled contractors and the staging process for us, and showed our place through open houses and private showings as many times as was needed to get to the offer stage. Once we had offers, she worked diligently to get the deal closed. We were very happy with the outcome, and we are so lucky that we had her support ...— Doreen B.
We absolutely loved working with Priscilla! My partner and I were looking for our first home in Oakland. We had pretty specific location requirements and spent about 3 months on our focused search, but Priscilla was with us every step of the way. She was extremely supportive, prompt, and an excellent communicator. Priscilla helped us fully inspect homes and made sure we felt comfortable really exploring every inch of the property. Ultimately, we found the place that feels like "home" and Priscilla was very helpful in making sure we closed on the house smoothly and efficiently. If you want someone who knows the market and will guide you to finding yo...— Ari J.
When my partner and I were looking for our first home, we knew we wanted to team up with a realtor who could guide us through our first home purchase and bring the expertise we needed to close on a house we really wanted. Working with Priscilla has been a distinct pleasure, and she has exceeded all of our expectations. We wanted to move quickly on a townhouse we had our eyes on, and Priscilla set us up with everything we needed to close in record time. We went from offer to keys in hand in less than a month, and it's thanks to Priscilla and her amazing team. Whenever we are in the market again, we know we will reach out to Priscilla first. Highly re...— Esther S.
Priscilla is the best. Stop looking and call her, you won't regret it. I called Priscilla about 7 weeks ago and told her I was thinking of buying a house. Now I'm moving into my dream home, and Priscilla is my neighbor. That's not a typo - it took less than two months to find a loan, shop for houses, make offers, get our offer accepted, negotiate closing terms, finalize paperwork, and get the keys to exactly the house we were looking for - all during the height of the pandemic. It was faster and easier than we possibly could possibly have hoped for. Priscilla took care of everything. Buying a house can be a complicated and anxiety-inducing process, ...— Edward H.
I must say Priscilla is an amazing person! She is very natural at making people feel comfortable because she is honest and she always looks out for others. Her new real estate career is perfect for her. She is very hard working, dedicated and reliable person. She truly loves what she does. Overall if you do business with her, you are in good hands. I can't wait to buy a home in the future with Priscilla as my agent!— Phillip H.
Priscilla was so amazing and helpful during our home buying process. She was always available for showings and made sure to advocate for us in every deal. She is kind, considerate and AMAZING at her job. It can be hard to find a realtor who you really believe has your best interest in mind and Priscilla clearly cares for her clients and makes that apparent from the start.— Jenna C.
Priscilla was quick to respond, engaging, respectful, kind, supportive. I highly recommend her!— Kiera R.
Where to start? I met Priscilla a year ago and she has helped me level up my life. She introduced me to Sequoia Real Estate and I've been working for the company for almost 10 months now. Priscilla is always looking out of others best interests. She's professional, considerate, and well educated. I'm proud to say she's my friend, colleague, and mentor!— Shannon R.
I've known Priscilla over a year now but didn't until recently ask her to help guide my boyfriend and I with our first home. I wanted to have someone I actually knew to support us through the home buying process. Priscilla was extremely reliable, communicative, informative, and she is absolutely someone you want on your team. She was able to advocate for us and help us find our perfect first home. I highly recommend Priscilla for any of your realtor needs!— Julie J.

As icing on top of the cake, she is a cultured, well-rounded Bay Area native and can likely point you in the right direction of your dream home ...— Michelle T.
We found Ms Cook here on Yelp. She got back to us right away. When we met, she was prepared, asked excellent questions and answered ours. And, importantly, told us when she didn't know and got back to us right away. Hiring Priscilla was a terrific decision. She worked hard to get our place ready and her recommendations worked. We followed her plan and got well over the asking price within a week! She has a good group of people she uses for staging and repairs. In fact, she recommended our agent in Nevada and we couldn't be happier with her, too. Priscilla is warm, smart and confident. She listens. She's available and ready to help even after the...— Zakkary Z.
Choose a realtor who grew up and knows the Oakland/Lake Merritt area! I closed on my first home, under asking price, and in 30 days all thanks to Priscilla! I first met Priscilla when I began the home-buying process almost a year ago (but put on pause by the pandemic). I stumbled on her by accident when she was showing a prospective client a home on an early morning run through Oakland-Lake Merritt. She had a pleasant demeanor -- very candid and warm to engage with. After the exchange, she handed me her business card, and the rest was history. When I was ready to re-enter the home-buying process I reached back out to Priscilla. She was still the s...— Chad N.
Priscilla was a pleasure to work with. You can tell when working with her that she really cares about you as client. She makes you feel like more than a number. She keeps everything transparent from the start. She's responsive & does a very good job of keeping consistent communication. I genuinely enjoyed working with her during the process of preparing to sell my home.— Myles E.
Thanks to Priscilla I was able to purchase my first home on my first offer! Priscilla made me feel comfortable right away. She's not only kind but also knowledgeable. Since the beginning I felt confident I was in good hands. As a first time homebuyer I had a lot of questions and she was so nice and patient in answering all of them. I searched high and low for my 1BR/1BA condo in Oakland, Walnut Creek, and Concord and Priscilla supported me all along the way. You want someone who is open to all of your ideas. She helped me consider all the options. Priscilla made herself available any time I needed her and that's exactly what I needed. We closed on t...— Claudia H.
Pricilla is very helpful and proactive throughout the whole home buying process. We are very glad we had her because she made our home experience memorable. Thank you again!— Dennison L.
On March 11th, 2023, I found Priscilla after searching for real estate agents on Yelp and reached out after reading her stellar reviews. I received an email the next day to schedule a consultation; we had our first call that week; she reassured me that she would see to it that I would get my first home by the end. She quickly provided introductions to lenders to speak with to assess my financing options and sent me a presentation; we reviewed it at her office to become familiarized with the home-buying process. We then considered potential neighborhoods to buy in and listed my top amenities. I saw a place I wanted to place an offer in on April 15t...— Samantha A.
Priscilla has been a godsend to my family and I as we sell our family home. She's very patient and stands on business! She always responds quickly and explains things thoroughly. She genuinely cares and I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a real estate agent in the Bay Area! Thank you for being of service to my family! Looking forward to working with you again!— Mistrell D.
It was an absolute pleasure working with Priscilla! She has such a a good spirit and easy to talk to. She was able to negotiate a seller credit for our mutual client Samantha. In this market you MUST work with a realtor who can communicate well and understands the escrow process. Look forward to working with you again!— Christina L.
Buying my first home is a life-altering process that I did not know how to begin. I had some personal concerns that made me very hesitant even to begin. The process is intimate and must be with someone you can trust to share your information. I reached out to Pricila and explained my big-picture situation to her. The significant part is she listened to all my concerns and wants and did not make me feel awkward. Pricilla has handled the questions and concerns with extreme professionalism. The process involves multiple moving parts; Pricilla has remained constant, ensuring I get answers and connect with the right people to help move this process forwa...— Nicole B.
Priscilla is a beautiful, well-oiled, house-selling MACHINE! She is ON it!! My house backed up to a busy street and people were complaining about it after seeing it in person. She did ALL of the work you could ever ask of any Realtor and THEN SOME to get my beautiful house sold. She has been a dream to work with. She explained things in a way that was easy for me to comprehend shortly after a surgery knocked the wind out of my sails! Priscilla is a ray of sunshine and I adore her. Thank you so much for all of your hard work, Priscilla! Even while you were out of town tending to your own family, you were working on selling my house. I cannot thank y...— Mz C.
