ZillowVERIFIEDJojo is a gem in today's world. His guidance through every step of the way made the entire process as smooth as could be. His attention to detail and extensive knowledge educated us with the ins and outs beyond our base awareness. He pushed for our timelines into the late night hours from his home in order to communicate with our buyers and remain within contracts. He is always very patient with all questions and gives detailed feedback and legal information. He is always punctual and dressed professionally. He has been such a joy to work with and our only regret is that we did not contact him sooner! We can now retire debt free and comfortably with money to spare for future investments! WE LOVE YOU JOJO! You are truly unforgettable!

ZillowVERIFIED"The expertise and dedication of Mr Jojo Soriano in selling my home was greatly appreciated. Jojo truly transcended my expectations in ensuring a smooth and successful process and transition. From the initial meeting and knowledge of the local Hercules market was clear and substantive. His valuable guidance on pricing was provided, which helped attract multiple offers swiftly. The prudent-approach in organizing a prompt open house on a particular day (community cultural event) that generated significant interest was particularly splendid. Other things need mentioning includes highlighting features & benefits of the property, staging, prepping, arranging things of importance, landscaping, housecleaning, closing, and the eventual move-out assistance. Throughout the entire process, Jojo communicated and promptly answered questions effectively, keeping everyone involved in this transaction informed and in-the-loop. The certainty in his ability to negotiate and secure the best possible deal, was felt. Beyond competence, Jojo's personalized approach perceived trust. The genuine care and dedication to needs made the experience less stressful, but pleasant. Mr Soriano is highly recommended to anyone looking to sell their home. Jojo and his realty team are a true professionals in this field, and undoubtedly a pleasure to work with."

ZillowVERIFIEDJojo is the very best! We bought a home in California from across the country and could not have done it without his expertise in Bay Area real estate. He is incredibly professional and responsive. We so appreciated his honest feedback about each property as well as his excellent advice when making offers. With his help, we were able to purchase the home of our dreams. Jojo consistently goes above and beyond to help make the home buying process easier--and continues to help us even after we closed on the home. We always felt like we were in the best hands with Jojo and would recommend him to all our friends, family, and neighbors. Thank you Jojo!!! Katie & Joshua Moses

ZillowVERIFIEDFirst time homeowner here and so glad I was referred to Jojo by a friend. He is extremely knowledgeable of the market and took the time to explain everything I needed to know to make the most informed decision. He exceeded expectations and helped me meet all my goals for the house I was looking for. Jojo responds quickly and will give you the feeling like he is working for you 24/7. He also ensured that I got as much help as possible once the house was purchased, freely giving some of his wisdom to make sure everything goes right from beginning to end. Highly appreciate him and such a pleasure to work with!

ZillowVERIFIEDThroughout the selling and buying process, Jojo Soriano was amazing. He was easy to communicate with and promptly answered my calls and texts no matter what time of day or evening. I was kept informed every step of the process. Jojo was extremely helpful in renovation process of the home I was selling. He had great ideas to help me get the best-selling price. After the renovation, Jojo staged my home. It looked so beautiful. He has an art to making your home look warm and inviting. My home sold within one week. With the help of Jojo, I also found an incredible new property. I couldn't be happier.

ZillowVERIFIEDJojo has become a family friend since working with him in 2020 with the successful and quick sale of my aunts house in 2021. Another aunt needed help selling her home and there was no other choice for me but Jojo. This experience could not have been more different than the first in terms of complexity, the race against time and the ever changing market. Through it all, Jojo remained the consummate professional that he is, always having our best interest at heart in every negotiation and every transaction. Jojos business thrives in referrals from past clients because he always delivers and goes above and beyond. I witnessed offers after offers falling though from investors that saw the house as another rental property. After months of waiting, the right buyer finally came who would fully appreciate the beautiful garden that my aunt so lovingly tended for years. Jojos gift, I believe, is in his ability to showcase a home, using his keen eye for aesthetics and his impressive business acumen and professionalism only to attract the best possible and most fitting buyer for the home. Thank you again, Jojo.

ZillowVERIFIEDJOJO SORIANO was referred to us by a friend. Weve heard his name and are somewhat familiar with his work with the tag line STAGED. SHOT. SOLD. He didnt disappoint. He surpassed our expectations, very hands-on. All questions answered, and he has the resources that we needed for a smooth sale. He personally staged our condo, and it turned out beautifully. He has excellent follow-through skills, and very detail oriented. Jojo was always a step-ahead of the process. He is very personable, and the entire selling process was quite smooth. Most importantly, he negotiated a smooth closing based on our personal timeline AND the sales price my wife and I were happy with. Thank you Jojo Soriano for a job well-done. Indeed, it was STAGED. SHOT. SOLD! Oscar & Thelma M.

ZillowVERIFIEDI am writing to express my husbands and my appreciation to Jojo Soriano for all he did to help us sell our home of 27 years and purchase a new home that we love. Jojo was very professional and saw to every detail. He explained each step that we had to go through. He always called or texted back right away when we reached out to him with a question. He was also very patient with us when we told him we didnt know where we wanted to move to. He showed us houses in several counties before we found the right one. I never heard him complain about the time it took or the gas he used driving all over the place for us. He is also very personable and it was an honor and a privilege to have him represent us. If we had to move again, we would hire Jojo immediately!

ZillowVERIFIEDSelling one's home can be a demanding and intimidating experience, especially if you are looking to maximize your return by doing renovations and staging before listing. After interviewing multiple agents, I was fortunate to have found Jojo who was able to provide a complete stream of services and had the expertise to take care of all my needs. Not only did Jojo help me obtain zero-interest renovation funding, he also screened various contractors, and oversaw all the work done on the house. Post-renovation, Jojo, who also has years of background in professional marketing, took care of all the photography and staging work that truly made the listing shine. The house quickly became a "hot home" on the market even with other competing listings in the neighborhood. After receiving multiple bids, we went pending within a week of listing, all thanks to the preparation work Jojo had put in. Comparing with other agents who seemed only interested in selling quick, and only provides "referrals" for renovation works that I would still have to manage myself, the complete stream of seamless services provided by Jojo is such a huge boon that I can not emphasize it enough in terms of the time and energy it has saved me!If you are looking for an agent who can provide you with exceptional support, and care enough about the details that he would come by the house to water the plants regularly while the house is going through the closing process, then talk to Jojo, and you most certainly will be taken care of.

ZillowVERIFIEDWhen you find yourself grief-stricken, living 4 hours away whilecollaborating with someone living overseas to sell a house full ofmemories, how do you even begin to find a realtor, let alone, the rightone? The process which started in January 2021 was short of a miracle inhow things, circumstances, and timing all came together. Guided by ourutmost commitment to the memory of my late Aunt who left us too soon,Jojo was the perfect choice in all aspects. His real estate expertise,impressive track record, various industry awards, design and photographyskills and his personable demeanor drew us in to choose him. It onlybecame apparent as we were going through the process of getting the houseready for sale why he was the only choice all along.Jojo worked with us tirelessly and patiently when most of ourcommunication was done remotely by phone, text, and zoom calls. He wasflexible, accommodating and always willing to clarify things for us. Hetook care of finding the different contractors that did a great job. The0% loan he offered was so easy to use and took a heavy load off. He hasbeen a consummate professional in every transaction and everynegotiation. It felt good knowing he genuinely had our best interest atheart.Jojos vision for the home far exceeded our expectations with his designchoices and aesthetic style. We were brought to tears at the firstunveiling. His photography skills resulted in such stunning photos thateveryone I shared the listing with was instantly impressed. Receiving 12offers after a week of showing and selling well above our asking pricespoke to the brilliance that he brought to the process. However, whatstood out the most about Jojo was really his keen sensitivity to ourdifficult journey of letting go of a home that stood for so much familylove. I so appreciated his simple yet poignant gesture of honoring ourbeloved L.I.S.A. in the listing description for the home. He came highlyrecommended to us and we can now attest as to why he was and still is.Thank you from the bottom of our hearts aEUR" The Soberanos c/o M. McLeod

ZillowVERIFIEDJojo was a very experienced and skillful agent! He answered my calls or text messages and replied to emails promptly. He had excellent skills in staging and taking photos of the property. He knew how to highlight features that my house had to draw buyers' attentions. As a result, I received many offers and was able to sell the house higher than the sell price in a short time. I would use Jojo again if I buy or sell a house in the future. I highly recommend Jojo!

ZillowVERIFIEDBeginning with our first appointment, Jojo saw the value in our property, while showing enthusiasm to market and sell our home in the best way possible. With his direction and expertise, our home was renovated and staged to show all the wow factors it had to offer. The transformation of the interior of our home invited many buyers to come and see it. Thus, 11 offers came right away and our home was sold in 7 days. Jojo truly knew how to negotiate to get us the best terms, which in turn gave us a price way above the asking price. He was very conscientious about explaining details and taking the time to make sure we understood everything throughout the entire process. We were in constant contact with Jojo, sometimes by phone or texting or him actually stopping by often to see the progress. I highly recommend Jojo as your Real Estate Professional if you want an overall great experience, while getting the best price possible for your home.

Review for Member: Jojo Soriano
ZillowVERIFIEDIt took almost two years from my preliminary conversations with Jojo before we finally listed my home for sale in the Oakland hills. The decision to sell was not easy, and the process of moving and putting the house on the market during the pandemic was challenging, to say the least. Jojo was, nonetheless, ever-so-patient and compassionate, while also being very professional. I never felt pressured by Jojo to move more quickly, and I always felt supported by him. He assured me that he would be ready when I was ready to make the move.Over the two years I worked with Jojo, and especially closer to the months prior to listing my home in the summer of 2020, Jojo shared advice on how to increase the value of my home, provided referrals for contractors, and recommended a no-interest financing option for upgrades I wanted to do prior to listing my home. Jojo's eye for detail and his creativity not only helps him stage and photograph the homes he sells, he also helped me select paint colors, decorative hardware, and light fixtures as I was prepping to list the house.It was a great comfort and reassurance to me to work with a person I know has a reputation for success and also keeps his clients' best interests at heart. Jojo provided a calming presence and voice at times when I needed it the most. He offered his insights into local market conditions that were helpful and allowed me to feel informed in the decisions I was making along the way. I am thankful and fortunate to have had Jojo on my side, working with me to sell my home during a very stressful and emotional time.

ZillowVERIFIEDMy husband and I worked with Jojo several years ago to buy our first house. When it came time to sell and buy again there wasnt even a question of who to call! Jojo is a genuine, kind, and resourceful person who has become more of a friend than a realtor! His personal touches and wide range of experiences make you feel well taken care of and looked out for during what could be one of the most stressful times of your life. Jojo always had our best interests at heart, and worked incredibly hard to help us get where we wanted. Everything went so smoothly. Now we are in our dream house, and we owe so much of that to him. We wouldnt recommend working with anyone else! Thanks Jojo!-The Barajas Family

ZillowVERIFIEDAs a seller and a real-estate professional myself (I am an appraiser), I hired the services of Jojo Soriano, Realtor, with a request for a qualified buyer with a fair, market-supported bid, and JoJo delivered in record time. During the process he not only took outstanding photos that beautifully portrayed my property's most prominent features but staged the house superbly highlighting those same appealing features. JoJo handled all of the negotiations in a seamless, professional manner. I was very impressed. In addition, JoJo has been an invaluable resource by offering his assistance with the different aspects of the selling & moving processes. JoJos assistance has helped ease the transitions inherent in these processes. In short, I would highly recommend JoJo Soriano as a real estate agent.

ZillowVERIFIEDJojo made the entire selling process very easy! During the house selling process I had to move to a different city and Jojo was able to work around my schedule for all of the meetings and he was coordinate all of the work that need to be completed in the home. Any time that we need to have a contractor come over do work or do the home inspection Jojo was there to be our advocate, which was great and made the whole process easier to manage from afar.He know the Hercules area very well and the family members that were able to attend the open house said it was really great and we had a great turnout.The Staging of the house and the photos of the house turned out really great and brought a new life to the house. In the end we received a number of offers around the dollar amount we were hoping to get in the area and I was very happy with my experience with Jojo. I only wish I got to meet his Frenchie Francesca.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe could not be happier with our decision to work with Jojo Soriano on the sale of our home in Hercules. After 10 years of being in our first home it was time to prepare our home to sell. It was crucial that we chose the right realtor because we were under a strict timeline, we were moving out of state due to employment circumstances. We did not want to leave California without our home being sold first. From the moment we decided to move forward Jojo he gave us first-class treatment throughout the entire process. He was always available via phone call, text, or email. He answered all of our questions with patience, explaining every detail to us. He was always cheerful and hardworking, honestly I never saw him frustrated when we hit a bump or asked a bunch of questions. He gave guidance to us with best options to prepare our home to sell, but never pressured us. He works with many local businesses in the area, which was also very helpful to us when choosing companies for any work we wanted to have done. They were all very professional and honest. We followed his lead every step of the way and in less than two weeks we had multiple offers above the listed price on our home! We are forever grateful!! Jojo runs his business with the highest integrity and has area knowledge, specific to Hercules, unlike most others who buy/sell in the area. He truly is The Hercules Realtor.

ZillowVERIFIEDI have worked with Jojo on several real estate transactions and he has never disappointed. His staging, marketing, real estate expertise, and closing skills cannot be beat. Jojo found my dream home two years ago. However, due to unexpected circumstances and a divorce, I found my dreams changing and was in a position where I needed to sell my home. Despite the ongoing stress of my divorce, Jojo came in and alleviated all of my worries and emotions. He staged my home beautifully and marketed my property aggressively. Within a short few weeks, I not only had an offer but Jojo found a buyer that was the answer to all my real estate prayers and we closed in only 19 DAYS! Unless you are working with St. Joseph, the patron saint of real estate, directly, you cannot find anyone that will top Jojo. Hes the best.

ZillowVERIFIEDI have known Jojo Soriano and his family of Realtors for many years, and when its time to downsize, I knew Id call on Jojo since I have been noticing that hes become a very active and successful Realtor in the area, and Ive been seeing photos of homes that he stages and sells in Hercules. When I met with Jojo in my house, he quickly made a list of what needed to be done in and around the house before the first open house. His team painted and made minor repairs, cleaned up our huge yard, and most importantly, he staged the house so beautifully himself. The photos online generated a lot of foot traffic during the open houses, and after two weeks, we received multiple bids. He kept me updated on every stage of the escrow process until we closed. Even during the escrow period, buyers agents kept inquiring if the house might still be available. The house sold $50,000 over the asking price. I could not be any happier and more satisfied. I knew I made the right choice, and if youre looking to sell, you have my utmost recommendation to hire Jojo Soriano. He will not only prepare your house to sell for more, but his negotiation skills will also preserve your net sales profit! -Rose L.

ZillowVERIFIEDOne of the first actions Jojo took was to identify improvements he wanted to make to my house before putting it on the market. He himself purchased light fixtures he wanted and found contractors to do the work needed both inside and outside of the house. It took longer than I expected (more than 5 weeks) to complete the improvements. The end result was that the house looked much better inside and outside and the first person who saw the house after it was listed made an offer! I have no doubt that Jojos staging of the house and his great photography helped get this first offer and other offers that followed. He was encouraging when an offer I had accepted was withdrawn. He knew exactly how to go about making counter offers. Following his advice, I made two counter offers that led to the final sale. I had no issues about Jojo staying in touch me and responding to texts or calls, but I was not always happy with his responsiveness when it came to the work on the house. The slow response was usually caused by unresponsive contractors. Looking back, I would have to say Jojo did not give me an accurate assessment about the timeliness of one of the contractors he said he had worked with previously.One last thing Jojo did to help me was to convince me to use his movers take my stuff to storage and my new place. With his experience, he realized that this was too difficult job for me and my son. He was right and he prevented me from making a very bad mistake.

ZillowVERIFIEDJojo Soriano sold our 77-year-old house over the asking price. And because of his great negotiation skills we were able to save a lot of $$$$. He suggested what needed to be renovated to the minimum and spent a lot of time and hard work in making the house really beautiful, especially the staging. The whole house transformed from ordinary to extra-ordinary - so enticing to prospective buyers.By word of mouth and from the testimonials (postcards) we received, Jojo was highly recommended. So when we decided to sell our first house, we called and placed our complete trust in him. He explained to us in detail the entire process from A-Z. Anytime we had questions/problems we called him 24/7. He relieved us of the stress and patiently guided us every step of the way and kept us posted of each development. The closing went very well and on schedule.Jojo really worked hard for the good of his clients. He knew we were hesitant to buy a new refrigerator. So what he did he search Craigslist and found a slightly used reasonably priced refrigerator and even arranged for someone to pick up and deliver to the house! And without telling us, he even bought big and heavy river rocks to make a aEURoenot-so-good-lookingaEUR? corner of the patio looked really nice aEUR" all to add value to the house. He always goes the extra mile for his clients.Jojo did his own beautiful staging (interior decorating), professional photography and graphic design. He is all person aEURoerolled into one.aEUR? He also did a wonderful job in packaging and marketing our house through social media.If you needed anything done in the house, Jojo would provide the resources - from renovation to cleaning/window washing. He did most of the necessary work for us. The extra time and effort he spent were very much appreciated by us. To sum up, Jojo is a professional, an expert and so dedicated and passionate in his chosen field and wants only the best for his clients.We are truly blessed to have Jojo as our agent and we highly recommend him. And . . . . a really nice guy, too!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe entrusted Jojo with th sale of our Hercules home because we needed someone discreet and reliable. What we found in Jojo was not only those qualities, but much more. Jojo approached the sale of our home with integrity and shrewd expertise and finesse. Where we worried, his was the voice of reason. When we were in doubt, his guidance and recommendations always proved wise. In the end, our home quickly sold for much higher than asking with multiple bids. We attribute all of this to Jojo's tireless dedication and professionalism. We decided to contract Jojos staging services and we feel that doing so really added to the pleasant outcomes resulting from the sale.

ZillowVERIFIEDJojo took the time to walk us through the process of selling our home and helping us see our home through a buyer's eyes. His enthusiasm when seeing our home for the first time made us feel as though we were special and we had a very special home. His creativity in staging the home was a marvel! We are so glad we followed his lead with suggestions he made to make the home shine.Jojo took extra time and went down to speak with the City of Pinole to discuss different land uses for our property and then Jojo created large oversized posters, utilizing his marketing skills which described the possibilities for land use and various ways to use certain aspects of the property, such as a canning station. His photography skills were excellent and showcased the home. He even created a separate website so he could add additional photos and create a video.He was quick to communicate with us and extremely responsive every step of the way. He also has a good sense of humor and laughed at my husband's jokes.Jojo walked us through the the process of receiving multiple offers and negotiated a no contingency offer which is very rare. We are very happy with the sale of our home and are happy we selected Jojo to represent us.

ZillowVERIFIEDMy family and I have lived in San Francisco for many years, and we decided to venture out in the Eastbay specifically the City of Pinole when we were ready to buy our very first home. We met Jojo when we previewed one of the homes he was selling in Pinole. It was nicely staged, and the open house was very busy. We didnt know Pinole has nice neighborhoods and homes with amazing panoramic views of the regional park. We decided to work with Jojo Soriano to look for our first home. Jojo showed us a few homes in Pinole, and when we found the one we liked the best, he helped us structure our offer with terms that are attractive to the seller. Our offer, immediately got accepted. Its a beautiful home with a nice view of the hills, a great backyard with custom hardscaping, a hot tub, and in a great neighborhood. Thank you Mr. Jojo Soriano for all your help!

The sale of our house was very complex, a divorce after 24 years, relocation expenses, an uncooperative bank, finding homes for several animals, packing, sorting, disposing of stuff accumulated was really overwhelming. JoJo not only found the buyer for my house, but also helped with everything else. His knowledge, compassion and great sense of humor helped me go through all of this and come out of it with my sanity intact! Thank you JoJo!!!

ZillowVERIFIEDMy family has owned our home in Hercules for almost 40 years. When the time came to sell, I needed to make sure that I was partnered with the right realtor who would not only sell my house but also ease the transition of parting with this home. My husband and I know many realtors but I didn't want to work with someone simply because I was friends or relatives with that realtor. I wanted to work with the best and Jojo did not disappoint. Unlike other realtors that just put a For Sale sign on your front yard, walk away, and wait for a sale, Jojo is proactive, diligent, and is involved in every part of the sale process. He recommended and oversaw minor renovations. He designed and staged the home in a way that captured all of the great memories we had without making it appear too personal to the buyer but could really speak to the buyer that they could create the same loving memories in our home. He also staged the garden with a water fountain, zen area, and furniture. At the time of sale, we had already moved and were no longer occupying the home or living in the same town. Jojo made sure to check on the house and he also had the yard cleaned up in preparation for the new owners.Aside from his design talent, Jojo is a great negotiator (I also used him for the purchase of my new home), very knowledgeable and very experienced on what I should expect when selling my home. I highly recommend Jojo when selling or buying your home and would definitely use him again.

Right from our first meeting we knew Jojo was a perfect fit. He had the eye for seeing possibilities of how to present our home so buyers will easily love it. Jojo was a total professional and made it easy for us to make some of the harder decisions along the way. His staging design was simply amazing and we often joked of no longer listing the house but loving it. The quality of his photos, flyers and website were way above the usual. He tirelessly sought other marketing avenues to attract a wide range of buyers. We can go on and on about how great Jojo was as our agent but to top it all, we've truly gained a friend for life.

ZillowVERIFIEDJoJo is an excellent realtor that we were lucky to have to help selling our place in Hercules. He helped us with photographing our place, staging, and printing out the brochure which are beautiful (you can see on Zillow). Additionally he was super professional and knowledgeable of the marketplace. He helped us price our place correctly and it was sold within two weeks!!! We are forever grateful for all of his help!

ZillowVERIFIEDJojo Soriano exceeded all expectations with the sale of our home. He is a consummate professional and I would highly recommend his service to anyone. Throughout the sale of our home he was both informative and patient with our inquiries, and most importantly managed to close our sale at a "higher than expected" price. I can't thank him enough for the hard work done. If you are looking for a realtor who is knowledgeable about the market and is easy to work with, look no further. You won't find anyone better.

ZillowVERIFIEDJojo Soriano is amazing person inside and out. He is very personable while he conducts business. Also, he remains ultimately professional and he works efficiently. It's important to mention that Jojo is an imaculant stage designer too so your house looks amazing and sells fast. Our house was dressed up in a dainty decor that would catch anyone's eye. Very artistic . All in all, Jojo is realistic, committed and deserves more than five stars ?

ZillowVERIFIEDJojo was amazing! He doesn't sugarcoat anything, he'll tell you want you need to do or change to get top dollar for your Home. He staged our home beautifully and always kept us informed of what was going on. Never a question unanswered. What's great is that he's found us the exact home we were looking for after selling our previous one. I would definitely use Jojo again

ZillowVERIFIEDJojo is one of the best listing agents I have ever worked with! He is very meticulous and artistic. He carefully listened to me and collaborated with me for my best interests. We had a great working relationship and made a great team. He also staged my home, exposed my home online, and designed attractive brochures. As the seller, I respected his expertise and took advantage of his advice. I would recommend others do the same. Jojo is able to tie in his other skills, such as photography, graphic design, great communication. I found Jojo to be an honest person with a great sense of humor who made the experience of selling my home more enjoyable.

ZillowVERIFIEDJojo was very helpful in finding our daughter her first home. After several offers on a number of condos she finally got an offer excepted. Jojo kept working with her to find what she was looking for and he bought her a home warranty. Jojo was very helpful and positive through the process.

ZillowVERIFIEDI needed a true sellers agent and someone that understood the unique features of my home. Jojo has an eye for design and knew just how to feature my home in both print and video.The home sold in less than 4 weeks and for over asking. He walked me thru the entire process. I couldn't have asked for a more attentive agent.

ZillowVERIFIED"I had seen Jojo Soriano's listings, and I knew he was the one for the job to sell my house. I was very happy with how he transformed my house like a model home. During the first open house, rain poured. He said "only serious buyers will come." Over 80 people showed up. He has a team of handyman, contractors, and inspectors that worked on the house mostly cosmetics, and his recommendations made sense. Jojo Soriano's advantage is negotiation skills, marketing and design background and his passion for photography. He didn't stop until he got the shot he needed that showcased the features of the house with the right lighting, even if it meant a few trips back and forth! The results speak for themselves!Thank you!Sylvia Villa-Serrano
