We are working with Brett on the sale of our condo and purchase of a house.
Professional, knowledgeable, accountable,resourceful, responsive and available, Brett is very easy and delightful to work with, with a clear, direct and honest communication style. He is also very accomodating, and can come up with creative solutions to unique challenges.
We had a challenging health situation that arose during the process that set us back and is still very saddening and disappointing. Brett showed up as very supportive, calm and professional. His advice in all the areas: preparation of the condo, market

As a professional designer, it's critical that I have a realtor I can entrust with my clients, and Brett is exceptionally attentive, respectful, savvy, and reliable. I especially appreciate how Brett respects the clients' own priorities, because centering the client when working on their own home is what it's all about. I and my team highly recommend you get to know Brett and consider working with him. He's great at his job!

As first time homebuyers, we appreciated Brett's expertise to help us successfully navigate a very competitive real estate market. He demonstrated that he had a comprehensive understanding of the areas we were searching in, down to knowing which streets were more desirable than others in a micro-neighborhood. He was very patient with us when we asked him novice questions, and helped us understand what was needed to win a bid without feeling like we overpaid. Somehow, he was always one step ahead of us--there were multiple instances when we had a question we thought we should ask Brett, only to

I've already done business with Brett twice and soon there will be a third one. I suppose this is much more convincible than any other words. :)

It was amazing to work with Brett. He found us our first home. For first time home buyers like us, Brett was extremely patient and very responsive. He understood what we are really looking for and delivered.
He is not only knowledgeable about the Bay Area market but also is a good source of information for any updates that needs to be done in a house. He helped us throughout the buying process and after we closed on our house. Highly recommended Brett!

Brett was an incredible partner in the purchase of our home, and the sale of our previous. If we ever purchase another home, he'll be our first call.

When it came time to sell our house we were looking for a person who can take the entire burden off our shoulders - someone who knew what to do and how to do it. We knew right away that Brett would be the right person. He walked through our home and saw instantly how to change it into the perfect house to sell. He had the professional vision and knew how to capture the best features of the house, what needed to be changed, and what would be unattractive to potential buyers. He also has an amazing team that helps with gardening and home improvement projects. We just put everything in Brett's hands

Brett is the best and made buying a house such a breeze!
We were buying our first home in the Bay Area, and the idea of dealing with the crazy market here seemed overwhelming. Brett was very helpful and created a transparent game plan for us to figure out what our priorities were, get familiar with the market, and make a successful offer on a home.
Brett and his team helped out in every step - from finding good homes to visit in person, to mortgage referrals, bidding strategy, and access to the property while we closed so we could take measurements, talk to contractors, and plan ahead.

I have known Brett for years. When I decided to sell my house, I reached out to Brett and I am so glad I did! From start to finish, I felt like I was in great hands. Brett is professional, knowledgeable, positive, patient, even keel, calm, realistic, insightful, and honest.
Brett made the whole house selling process so easy, manageable, and (almost) stress-free. ;-) Brett took control and handled all the details of preparing the house for market. Further, Brett had great suggestions for upgrades to the house that would increase the house sale price much more than the cost of the upgrades. When

It was great to work with Brett. He's knowledgeable about every aspect of home buying process, thorough, punctual, and prompt to respond. Within a couple of meetings, he figured out my taste and preferences. Thereafter, he was great at creating a select list of showings to ensure I don't have to look at listings that I wouldn't be interested. He walked me through pros and cons about various aspects of the contract, addressed my concerns and answered my queries with patience.
I would recommend Brett to anyone who is looking for a great home buying experience.
