Testimonials

It was important for me, as a first-time homebuyer relocating from Sonoma, to have an agent who was both reputable and knowledgeable about the East Bay market. Nicole Mendoza exceeded those expectations from my search to signing! Attuned to what my interests and needs were, Nicole efficiently curated tours of properties that fit what I was looking for, while accommodating my busy schedule. She remained communicative about any developments that came up during the process. There wasn't a question or need of mine that went unanswered, which made me feel confident that I was in the right hands during my homebuying journey. At one point, I decided to change my lender. Since Nicole is savvy and well-connected, she made an introduction to a local company that turned out to be more responsive and an better fit for me. Working with Nicole Mendoza was an absolute pleasure. She made the difference in making sure all aspects of the transaction went smoothly. I would highly recommend her if you're looking to buy or sell. I have already referred her to a few friends, and I look forward to working with her again in the future. Thanks for everything, Nicole!

My wife and I had an absolutely fantastic experience working with Nicole. It's very rare that I post a testimonial online, however, I felt compelled to do so, in this case. Nicole is a consummate professional. When she says that she will do something, she will do it, and probably in less than 5 minutes! She is always available to you, and ALWAYS willing to go out of her way to support you -- going the extra mile time after time. She treated us with the utmost respect at all times, and she is a true expert in the East Bay real estate market. Her expertise allowed us to navigate the intricate and often concealed complexities of purchasing a home in a highly competitive environment. Nicole is well connected to the entire real estate ecosystem. That's probably why her assessments are always "on the money". She articulates in an upfront way the data that supports her recommendations and explains in full detail any potential risks. My wife and I always felt that we were making the most informed decisions possible --- and Nicole was our counsel. Perhaps Nicole's greatest skill is her ability to artfully balance advising us on foundational truths about the current state of the market and housing options, while also recognizing the very personal aspects and preferences involved in purchasing a home. We never felt rushed or pressured in any way. We honestly couldn't have asked for me. As a testament to her character, Nicole has remained someone that we consult with, really, for any topic related to our new, beautiful home. We truly trust her professional judgment as well as her dedication to our wellbeing as a family.

As first-time homebuyers, the process of purchasing a home felt overwhelming and daunting, but Nicole Mendoza made it all manageable. From the very beginning, she was a calming voice, guiding us through each step with amazing clarity and patience. Nicole took the time to thoroughly explain every detail, ensuring we felt confident in our decisions. Her availability was incredible—whether it was late-night calls or early morning emails, Nicole was always there, especially when we faced challenges with our lender. She handled every aspect of the process, from making sense of inspection results to negotiating a favorable price on our behalf. Thanks to Nicole, what could have been a stressful experience turned into a smooth and positive journey. We absolutely love our new home and couldn't be happier with the outcome. If you're looking for a realtor who is kind, responsive, and truly invested in your success, Nicole Mendoza is the one you want by your side.
