After researching several of the top-rated realtors in the Valley, Helen stood out immediately aEUR" not only did Helen have great reviews, she absolutely lived up to every expectation. She is solutions-oriented, knowledgeable, genuine, patient, results-driven, and communicative. We are so glad that we chose her! She goes above and beyond, from bringing moving boxes to connecting us with contractors, and even generating strong off-market interest and offers. Although we decided not to sell after remodeling, Helen always put our familys best interests first, and she will be our only choice when we sell in the future.

We first met Helen at an open house and were immediately impressed by her professionalism and deep market knowledge. From day one, it was clear she genuinely cared about helping usaEUR"not just closing a deal. Thanks to her expert guidance and strong negotiation skills, we were able to secure the Santa Clara condo we truly wanted. Helen went above and beyond, recommending a reliable loan agent and even helping us rent out the property after closing. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, knowledgeable, and dedicated real estate agent!

Helen is an outstanding listing agent who truly delivers resultsaEUR"even in a challenging market. She helped me sell my condo at 2bed 2 bath condo in Santa Clara, and thanks to her expertise and dedication, we got it sold in just one week, despite the overall slowdown in the condo market. Helen paid for professional staging and inspection upfront, showing her commitment to getting the best outcome. She works with passion and integrity, always prioritizing her clients over commission. Her quick response time and tireless work ethic made the entire process smooth and stress-free. On top of that, she successfully coordinated the sale alongside another condo I was selling, which made it possible for me to complete a 1031 exchange and purchase a duplex. I'm truly grateful for her professionalism and would highly recommend Helen to anyone looking for a skilled and trustworthy real estate partner.

Weve known Helen He for many years, and after she helped us purchase our single-family home last year, we turned to her again when we decided to sell our townhouseaEUR"despite the tough market conditions. Helen is truly passionate about her work. She goes above and beyondaEUR"not for commission, but because she genuinely cares. She covered the cost of staging, inspection, cleaning, and invested in professional photography and a high-quality video to present our home beautifully. Her marketing skills are impressive and effective. Helen personally hosted every open house for three consecutive weekends until our home was sold. Her strong negotiation skills helped us achieve a solid price, and she handled every step of the process smoothly and efficientlyaEUR"especially notable our neighbor's other townhouses in the area were still sitting on the market. Shes always responsive, professional, and dedicated. We highly recommend Helen to any seller looking to sell their home in the Bay AreaaEUR"youll be in excellent hands.
