She was incredibly dedicated, always willing to accommodate our schedules and make time to show us homes and answer our questions. Rachel was patient with us throughout the entire process, taking the time to explain every detail and ensure we felt confident in our decisions. She worked tirelessly, often putting in long hours behind the scenes to make sure everything went smoothly. Her deep knowledge of the Peninsula market, skill in navigating complex offers, and strong relationships with other agents made the process much easier for us. She communicated clearly every step of the way and made our home-buying experience truly positive! We highly recommend Rachel!

ZillowVERIFIEDWorking with Rachel Ni was such a wonderful experience. From the start, her deep knowledge of real estate and her great communication with other agents really stood out.

ZillowVERIFIEDA Wonderful Experience Working With Rachel Ni I recently relocated to the Bay Area and had the opportunity to work with Rachel. She immediately understood what I was looking for and focused on homes that matched my timeline, needs, and budget. Within just a few weeks of searching, I was able to find a home that was exactly what I was looking for. Most importantly, Rachel always made sure my best interests were protected. She kept all of my contingencies in place until my loan was fully processed aEUR" which took longer than expected aEUR" and she handled everything with patience and professionalism. Thanks to her, the entire transaction was incredibly smooth from start to finish. Even after closing, Rachel continued to go above and beyond. When there was a hiccup with the delivery of an item, she took time out of her day to go to the property and make sure it was safely secured while I was away. Her dedication doesnt end at closing aEUR" she truly cares about her clients. I highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for a trusted, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring realtor in the Bay Area

ZillowVERIFIEDWorking with Rachel Ni to buy our first home was seriously the best decision we made! As first-time buyers, we were totally clueless and stressed, but Rachel was an absolute rock star. She guided us through every single step with crazy patience and killer expertise. Right away, she blew us away with her deep knowledge of the Bay Area market and her network. She didn't just show us standard listings; she got us into several off-market homes we never would have found. Her advice was always honest and spot-onaEUR"she helped us see the real value and condition of places, not just the glossy pictures. When it was time to put in an offer, Rachels experience kicked in. She helped us feel so much more confident on the price and strategy. She nailed the sweet spotaEUR"competitive without making us overbid. And, boom, we got our dream house! Even after we got the house, Rachel continued to help us. She gave us good suggestions about painting, termite treatment, and small renovations. It really felt like she cared about us beyond just the transaction. Were beyond grateful for Rachel. She took the whole scary, stressful journey and made it smooth and actually fun. We can't recommend her enough!

ZillowVERIFIEDRachel has been an amazing agent for us. We are first time home buyer with close to no experience with real estate. She patiently walked us through the process, taught us everything there is to know about finding the right home for our needs, and never pushed us towards any particular option. She always provided balanced judgements and brought in her inspector and contractor partners when appropriate to provide more perspectives. I cant recommend a more perfect agent.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe are SO happy we got to work with Rachel Ni to buy our first home. Even before we signed our broker agreement, she was responsive and detailed about what to expect with the buying process and offered solid advice. From there, I felt like things went more smoothly than I would have ever expected. Even though we already had an idea for the home(s) that we would like, Rachel had some great picks based on our preferences. It's clear she really knows her market. Rachel gave us straightforward, honest advice about what kind of work would be needed in the properties we liked. She was deliberate about how we made our offer, and we had our #1 choice accepted. She even sent over a cute little calendar about when we should expect every step of contract and escrow! Her connections got us a better loan rate than even close family contacts, and inspectors who were both extremely thorough and knowledgeable, which brought us peace of mind as we headed towards closing. Rachel was professional, helpful, thorough, and well-connected, and always seemed to have our best interests in mind. We were beyond impressed. She was exactly the person we hoped we would work with to make one of the biggest personal and financial decisions in our lives.

ZillowVERIFIEDMy wife and I were blessed to have Rachel as our realtor to help us sell a property that had been in the family for over 3 decades. We had several challenges that came up during the process and Rachel walked us through every step of the way and help us solve all of the problems. When we came across an issue with our property title, Rachel promptly connected us with an attorney that advised us on how to make the appropriate changes. The HOA also made it difficult for us to sell our property due to the changes they made to the CCRS. Rachel assisted in addressing all of the HOA's concerns and remediated solutions. Rachel also made suggestions and aided in changesA around the property to maximize its value. Rachel's decade of market knowledge and connection helped us tremendously in getting our place sold. We could not have asked for anyone better. Rachel's unparalleled professionalism, efficiency, and friendliness made the entire process a breeze. We highly recommend Rachel.

ZillowVERIFIEDI cannot recommend Rachel Ni enough! From the very beginning, she demonstrated an unparalleled level of professionalism, dedication, and market knowledge. When I decided to sell my home, Rachel was proactive in setting up a strategy that catered specifically to my needs. She provided insightful advice on how to appeal my home to potential buyers, which undoubtedly contributed to the quick sale we achieved. What sets Rachel apart is her communication. She kept me updated at every step, ensuring I was never left in the dark about offers, market trends, or any paperwork. Her negotiation skills were also top-notch; she secured a price well above what I expected, making the whole process not only smooth but highly profitable. Moreover, Rachel's understanding of the local area was invaluable. She knew exactly what buyers in the neighborhood were looking for and tailored our approach accordingly. Her guidance through the complex paperwork and closing process was clear and reassuring. If you're looking for a realtor who combines expertise with genuine care for your real estate journey, look no further than Rachel Ni. Shes earned my trust, my business, and my highest recommendation.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe can't recommend Rachel enough! We were first-time home buyers and from the very start, she made the process seamless and relatively stress-free. She locked-in on what we wanted, provided honest feedback, and was always prepared with a wealth of resources that we could tap into. She was always prompt, patiently answered any questions we had, and kept us in the loop at every step. Thanks to her deep knowledge of the Bay Area market and efficient approach, we were able to find the perfect home in a relatively short period! We're beyond happy with our experience and would highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking to buy their next home.

ZillowVERIFIEDI recently worked with Rachel Ni as my real estate agent, and she was absolutely fantastic. Rachel is super helpful, always on time, and responds quickly to any questions or concerns. One thing that really stood out about Rachel is that she started off by hosting an educational session for me. She explained all the basics of buying a house, including important terms and common pitfalls. This really helped me understand what to expect and made the whole process a lot less intimidating. Rachel also has a great network of contacts, which came in handy for sorting out my mortgage and insurance. Thanks to her connections, I got some really great rates that I wouldn't have found on my own. She took the time to understand my tastes and priorities, and she only showed me properties that matched what I was looking for and within my budget. This made the search process so much easier and more enjoyable. When we got to the closing stage, Rachel's skills really came into play. She managed to negotiate a lower price and even spotted an issue that the seller had missed. She made sure the seller fixed it before we closed the deal, which saved me a lot of hassle and money. Overall, working with Rachel was an awesome experience. She's knowledgeable, dedicated, and genuinely cares about her clients. If you're looking for a real estate agent who will guide you through the process with expertise and a personal touch, Rachel is definitely the one to go to.

ZillowVERIFIEDIt was an absolute pleasure working with Rachel. She is one of the most efficient professionals I have ever met. She truly understands what her client is looking for. Her understanding of real estate is amazing which helps her client succeed in decisions. She does a good homework on her side based on client preferences. I really liked when she used to hand me out the printed paper on real estate details in morning. And she has a good network of contractors which can get the home improvement job done real fast.

ZillowVERIFIEDRachel was amazing! This was the first house I ever bought and she made what I always thought was a super scary process extremely easy. From the get-go, she had a booklet that laid out all the steps and all the things to look out for, she very open and honest with me about price expectations and what I was looking for. It really felt like a collaborative experience rather than someone trying to sell me something I didnt want, it was really cool! After a few sessions of showings, we were able to narrow in on exactly what I was looking for and before I knew it I was closing on an amazing house at the right price in only a couple weeks! Throughout the entire process she was promptly responsive, even in the evenings. Rachels a great realtor and Id recommend her to anyone looking in the bay area in a heart beat! Thanks Rachel!

ZillowVERIFIEDRachel was my realtor for the sale of my home and she was a star! The listing was not simple, involving several parties of interest but she navigated the transaction and steered the sale of my home at the most achievable price with knowledge, ease, flair and professionalism. I have yet to meet a realtor who embodies this profession the way Rachel does. The passion and emphasis she puts forth to getting the job done and closing the deal is undeniable yet the care and concern she has for me as a client, the escrow, title officers and her peers aka other realtors is unmistakable. If there is such thing as a "legacy realtor" I would say Rachel should be in the books. As she dealt with the sale, she guided me with empathy and sound advice, never sugar coating or misleading me with what I want to hear, but what it best advised. She was patient in dealing with my concerns as well as the other parties and made sure everyone is on the same page towards meeting our goals. I highly recommend Rachel if you are considering a realtor. She is compassionate, dedicated, and a skilled and artful negotiator who was PRESENT the entire process and therafter.

She holds valuable expertise in the real estate market, including a deep understanding of property values, market trends, and neighborhood information. Her professionalism throughout the entire transaction is commendable. One of Rachel's strengths was her ability to actively listen to our needs and preferences. By understanding our specific requirements, she was able to tailor her approach and ensure that our interests were prioritized.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe recently had the pleasure of working with Rachel as our buyer's agent, and we couldn't have been happier with our experience. Rachel was recommended to us by our employer and relocation service due to her extensive experience selling over 100 houses in the Bay Area, and we quickly realized why she was one of the top-ranking realtors. As first-time homebuyers, we were nervous about the competitive market in the Bay Area. However, Rachel's thoughtful help made the entire process smooth and stress-free. She is incredibly knowledgeable about the Bay Area market, great locations, and the general construction of the house. Rachel was always patient with us, never rushing and always explaining the details and going over the disclosures during our house hunting. Throughout the whole purchase process, from seeing open houses, and putting down offers, to getting loan approval and closing, Rachel was always there for us. She even helped us design and plan for the remodeling! Thanks to her hard work and negotiation with the seller's agent, we were able to find a cute house in a nice neighborhood within our budget. Rachel's exceptional work and strong marketing and negotiation techniques truly made our real estate experience on a different level. If you are seriously looking to buy or sell your property in the Bay Area, we highly recommend consulting with Rachel. Her exceptional work and experience will undoubtedly lead to success in your real estate journey.

ZillowVERIFIEDLook no further. Rachel is the absolute best! We were relocating from Texas to the Bay Area, so we only had a limited time for house hunting. We flew to the Bay Area for a weekend, and Rachel organized 20 housing tours. We fell in love with a house and we made an offer. Through Rachel's hard work, our offer was accepted! We felt so lucky as this made our relocation a lot less stressful, and the timeline worked out perfectly for us. Rachel took care of organizing all the cleaners, repairs, walkthrough, and was able to promptly fix any problems that arose. She replies to texts or phone calls instantly. It's a great feeling to know that Rachel will always be there for you. Even after closing, Rachel is always there for any questions or recommendations. We feel so lucky to find Rachel, and we highly recommend her! Thank you Rachel!

ZillowVERIFIEDRachel is the best agent we have ever worked with! This is our second time working with her. The first time was a quick buy. we were in a rush and Rachel helped us to purchase a very nice condo and we got to move in just in time! This time, we wanted to upgrade but we had limited budget. Rachel sat down with us and listened carefully about what we wanted. The thing is, we had no idea what we wanted at the time. Rachel was so helpful and patient. In the end, we bought our dream house and sold our condo, both with a very good price. She is very busy but we always feel like we are her only client! She was very responsive to our calls and text messages. She always had time to show us houses. She never pushed us to make an offer we can't afford or will regret. She treats us like a family. I can't say enough nice things about her. Most importantly, she has a very good sense about the market. You can trust her with either buying or selling your houses, 100%!!

ZillowVERIFIEDRachel is beyond amazing. I spent over 25 years in the real estate industry working with thousands of residential brokers and agents and she is absolutely one of the best I've ever had the pleasure of dealing with. She's an honest, straightforward problem-solver with the patience of a saint and she helped me to make the best of some extremely stressful situations during a very difficult time. In addition to being knowledgable about the market and a strong negotiator, Rachel is just an all-around good human who understands how important and personal a home is to people, including all the little details that clients obsesses over which a lot of agents just ignore, play down, or get annoyed about. She is truly passionate about helping people find a home they love that works for them and their family, and it's obviously that she genuinely cares about the best interests of all parties involved. She's also incredibly responsive (which is super rare in the Bay Area) and she went way above and beyond to help me work through some issues that might have been deal breakers with another agent. It's easy to see why so many clients trust her. Whether you're a buyer or seller, landlord or tenant, working with Rachel will be one of the best experiences you can possibly have. I can't wait to work with her again! PS - she also has an incredible network of contacts who do great work. Floors, handywork, gardeners - whatever you need, Rachel knows how to get it done.

ZillowVERIFIEDRachel is a super nice person, she helped us to get a house with very good price, which is very hard on the current crazy market. She is a very responsible person, and she always tries her best to help you spend every of your penny worthy. We bothered her a lot for showing houses, talking about house upgrade, etc., but she is always very patient and never complains. Rachel is also very knowledgeable and experienced in picking a good house with over 15 years house purchasing/selling experience, she knows all the tricks. She also has lots of good connections with agents from other companies, that really helps with house purchasing, you get a lot better chance to get the house but not wasting too much money. I introduced Rachel to my friends, and I highly recommend Rachel if you need help for house selling or purchasing, she won't let you down.

ZillowVERIFIEDRachel is a phenomenal real-state agent! We have known her for over 6 years and worked with her to purchase our homes in the Bay Area. She has an amazing personality and networking skills that will help her clients to negotiate in a very competitive market. She always goes above and beyond for her clients and will be your best advocate! We loved working with her during our first home purchase and could not think of anyone else to work with for our second home. It was more challenging to visit homes during the pandemic but Rachel worked with our schedules to plan home visits and open houses. When we requested, Rachel was always candid about her opinion on the homes we visited by informing us about all the advantages/disadvantages (neighborhood, home conditions, disclosures, school districts, price point, etc). Our current home purchase was definitely more complicated in terms of sellers situation, but Rachel worked tirelessly to assist us with the purchase process and coordinating with the sellers agent. I highly recommend Rachel Ni for your next property purchase!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe purchased our first home in Mountain View with the help of Rachel and it was such a pleasure working with her. We were initially anxious that the process will be very stressful, but she guided us well throughout, and everything worked out smoothly. Two things about Rachel that we really liked - she doesnt hesitate in giving her unvarnished opinion, and shes very approachable. As first time home buyers who hadnt even been to any open house before, we were ready to make an offer on the first home that we saw. It was Rachel who cautioned us, and reassured us that she would help us find the perfect home no matter how much time it took. In retrospect, buying that property would have been a blunder, and we are so grateful to Rachel for being so open and honest with us. It is so easy to reach out to her with any question you have and you will always get a quick response. She also knows a whole lot of good people in the business, and she helped connect us to a great loan officer and we got a great deal. We are so happy that we had Rachel as our agent, our first home purchase went through seamlessly. We highly recommend Rachel, you can trust her to find your own dream home.

ZillowVERIFIEDI have known Rachel in a personal capacity for almost 8 years but until recently had never needed her skills as an agent. Upon my fathers unexpected passing, I contacted her for help with finding a new condo on the peninsula for my mom who needed to relocate from FL to be closer to me. Rachel was knowledgeable, a great listener who asked intelligent questions, always responsive via text/email, and she found many options while balancing my moms wish list and budget. She found my mom a condo in San Carlos, and as it was new construction, she negotiated and proactively added language to the sales contract securing the right to cancel if there were lengthy construction delays. Unfortunately, we had to leverage this clause due to delays, but Rachel, with her extensive network, found an even better condo for my mom in Burlingame. Despite there being a competing offer, Rachel again displayed her strategic negotiating skills and secured the deal. She was a fierce advocate for my mom during the entire buying process and even now as my mom works with contractors to update her new home. This was a tumultuous year for me and my newly-widowed mom, and we are so grateful for Rachel. We highly recommend her!

ZillowVERIFIEDRachel helped me sell my condominium on the Peninsula. I screened multiple real estate agents; however, I chose to go with Rachel because of her experience, enthusiasm, and selling strategy which she went through during our initial meeting. She was never pushy and gave me plenty of time to consider. I appreciated her responsiveness and making herself available to address any concerns I had during the selling process. Rachel is a strategic negotiator, good listener, and hard worker and made the selling process go smoothly. Rachel leveraged her contacts and I received offers within the first hours and was able decide and accept an offer in record time. Her experience and insight helped me negotiate an even higher selling price! As a result, I was able to save money both on staging and appraisal fees. She knew the best strategy for pricing to get market attention and the selling price range I was targeting. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to sell or buy property in the Bay Area.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe contacted Rachel Ni after reading many raving reviews about her online, and they all turned out to be truthful! Rachel is extremely dedicated, resourceful, and friendly. She worked within our budget, asked us about the features we want, and gave us listings that match our preferences very well. She was very informative about the neighborhoods we were interested in and gave us honest advices about the pros and cons of the properties. She was never pushy and gave us plenty of time to consider. We were first-time home buyers in a hot sellers market during COVID pandemic. Expecting to be out-bided time and again, we were totally surprised when our first offer was accepted, thanks to Rachels impressive negotiation skills. We highly recommend Rachel to anyone wanting to buy or sell a property!

ZillowVERIFIEDMy husband and I had an incredible experience with Rachel. We bumped into her at an open house when we first started looking for our dream house this year. After chatting with her, we were moved by how passionate and helpful she was so we decided to look for houses using her help. As a first time home buyer, we had lots of questions and Rachel was patient enough to answer every one of them. She is also very responsive and transparent for their clients. She handled any issue or problem that arose quickly and our house closed without a hitch. Rachel guided us every step of the way in the process. She even helped us with recommendations as we explored what repairs we'd need to address. She is very knowledgeable about real estate as well as construction/renovations. We are very happy with our purchase and Rachel did an outstanding job as our agent. We highly recommend her!

ZillowVERIFIEDRachel Ni is simply one of the best realtors our family has had the pleasure to work with. I personally have used her services twice and she is fantastic! Rachel is easy to reach, very responsive, very complete in her advice and extremely knowledgeable. We used Rachel for two properties on the SF peninsula. Once to sell a house and once to buy a condo. She has a full set of experienced professionals to call upon if you need help. She spots the good and bad and gives unvarnished advice that you can trust. She is an expert with Peninsula properties and really knows the ins/outs of her territory. We can't recommend her enough! If you want a professional you can trust with your best interest at heart, call Rachel Ni!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe highly recommend Rachel to any bay area home buyer, especially first-time homebuyer. This is our first time purchasing a house. Rachel helped us to get familiar with the entire purchase process and help us to line out the timeline. Unlike some agents we contacted, Rachel proactively learned our requirements and preference. At the beginning of house shopping, Rachel arranged different types of houses and helped us to understand the bay area housing market and our needs. After we decide the type and location, Rachel helped us to arrange house visits for all available inventories on the market. During COVID-19, the market was very competitive and we were surprised that she could arrange all of them for a weekend tour. During the house visit, Rachel was very knowledgeable about the house structure and local area. She quickly pointed out the pro and cons of each house and helped us to make decisions. We always felt Rachel was on the same team with us. She was not pushy and always said aEURoeno rush, just feel if you really like this houseaEUR?. When the market was too hot or the listing price was too high, she shared her experiences and made the right recommendation to us. We made offers to two houses but did not them accepted. Rachel then hand-wrote letters to the neighbors and explored if any owner was willing to sell. I do not think we can expect this move from every agent. She is just kind and awesome! Rachel helped us to be well prepared for deal-making on day one. She walked through the housing contract, a sample inspection report, and other documents on the first day and helped to clear all doubts. The bay area housing market moves very fast. Getting familiar with all documents beforehand assisted us to make decisions very quickly. She also illustrated her good relationship with other agents in the area. For our final offer, our price was not the highest. Rachel pulled the strings and helped us to make a counter-offer in 30min. It was unbelievable and we purchased our final house at a very reasonable price. Overall, we feel lucky to work with Rachel and look forward to working with her again.

ZillowVERIFIEDI expected purchasing my first home would be stressful (and it was). But, what I didnt expect is that my agent would also make the process so much fun. Rachel was fantastic to work enough, from the first house we saw together to handing me the keys to my new home. Rachel excels in all the qualities you want from an agent. She responds to questions with lightning speed. She is a savvy negotiator and brings ingenuity in making deals work. And perhaps best of all, she has a fantastic sense of humor and is not pushy. The homebuying process is stressful. You are constantly evaluating whether homes are right for you, but a lot of times, you are wondering whether your agent is right for you as well. I never second-guessed my decision to work with Rachel and, if youre lucky enough to work with her, you will not too.

ZillowVERIFIEDMy family and I have worked with Rachel Ni over the course of 7 years with the sale and/or purchase of 3 different properties in the Bay Area, so I can say with confidence that I highly recommend Rachel for all your real estate needs. She is friendly, reliable, honest and has many years of experience buying and selling multiple types of real estate in different price ranges. In 2020, Rachel and her team helped me and my fiancA(C) to purchase our very first home together in San Mateo. As first time home buyers, we had absolutely no idea what we were doing but Rachel walked us through everything and really held our hands throughout the process. I'm the type to ask lots of questions and Rachel was extremely patient with me. She was very knowledgeable, answered all my questions, explained all the confusing jargon and really went above and beyond to make sure I didn't have to stress out. Very early in the process, we lost out on what we thought was "the one" when we were too slow to decide to put in an offer. I was SO upset. But Rachel, with her years of experience, reassured me and told me that there would soon be even better homes coming on the market and less than a week later, she was right! With Rachel's guidance, my fiancA(C) and I purchased a condo in a great complex, in an even better location than the one we thought was "the one," so we're super happy! Moral of the story: Don't get discouraged and give up. A better one will come along. Buying a home in the midst of a global pandemic was new to everyone but Rachel and her team made the whole experience amazing for us. We were pretty aggressive in looking for a home ASAP and wanted to see as many as we could each weekend. Rachel and her team were completely on board. Gone are the days where you can just drop by an open house, so Rachel coordinated and set appointments so that we saw multiple properties each weekend. Most recently in February 2021, Rachel helped my family and I sell our studio in Daly City. The same one that she had helped us purchase a few years prior. Since my parents were living abroad, we thought there may be issues in the process, but Rachel made sure things went smoothly. Before we could even get the property on the market, it was discovered that the bathroom ceiling had water damage caused by the unit above. Rachel and her team were completely on top of it. She arranged everything including assessing the damage, getting it fixed and repairing the ceiling. From then on things moved real quick. Painting the whole unit, removing cabinets, replacing stove, cleaning, staging and marketing were done in just a few days. Even after the water damage hiccup, we were able to sell our studio on time. The best part was, even though there was huge competition on the market at the time, it sold for a great price! Rachel knew the best strategy for pricing to get the attention we wanted to sell for the price we wanted. After 3 properties with her, trust me, Rachel knows what she's doing. I will definitely be working with Rachel again in the future when my fiancA(C) and I are ready to buy our next home.A Pro tip: If she brings you for Dim Sum, it means she likes you!

ZillowVERIFIEDFantastic Agent and Amazing Person! We were incredibly fortunate to have met Rachel who did an outstanding job in assisting getting our investment property. We finally purchased a home in February 2021, which is nothing short of a miracle considering the current market and COVID. Rachel is responsive and professional. Her commitment and hard work is evident every step of the process. Her thoughtful demeanor also results in a pleasant transactional experience. We LOVE our new house and are so grateful to be where we ended up. Thanks Rachel!

ZillowVERIFIEDI am so so grateful to meet Rachel and Jay and let them be our agent. We were the first time buyers and were new to everything. They were so patient telling us all the process and all the things we might encounter when we just met. We successfully bought our dream house in San Mateo thanks to Rachel and Jay! During the pandemic this year when everything became much harder, they scheduled showings for us in almost every week and personally toured us in every showing. They were so professional that they would tell us things they noticed from each of the house we visited and helped us analyze what are the pros and cons as well as gave us estimates on how much needed to fix them. Their network is also really beneficial to any home buyers because Rachel and Jay basically know every single agent in the Bay Area and this relationship helped us get more detailed info of the houses we liked. They also have many good relationships with large number of contractors in the area which really saved us a lot. I really like both of them as friends as well. They have such positive energy that is contagious! They are so hilarious as well and they make up a really great team. And the other thing I would like to share is Rachel is a real foodie in the Bay Area so look out for her for some yummy food recommendations. Thank you so much Rachel and Jay! I really appreciate all the hard work you put into us as well as all the early mornings and late nights you spent with us on the phone and in the emails. We are very sure that that we will work together again! Highly highly recommend Rachel and Jay!

ZillowVERIFIEDRachel and Jay help me sold a property last year and purchased a new home. They put the needs of the clients ahead of their own, committed to helping find the best fit. Rachel and Jay are professionals. With their recommendations/advice made the process smooth and easy. There are a lot of agents out there who just want to make a buck when I work with Ni/Doker team, I felt they are working in my best interest.

ZillowVERIFIEDJay and Rachel helped me sell my house in Redwood Shores, after 7 interviews with the agents in the area, we decided to work with Jay and Rachel. Knowledgeable, experienced, easy to work with, professional, and always available. They took care of every detail and makes the whole process smooth. They went above and beyondaEUR| They are always by my side supporting me and made everything I needed to happen. Hire them as your realtor. You won't regret it.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe were so lucky to have found Rachel when we moved to the SF Bay Area. As our Realtor, she helped us find the right home in the right neighborhood for the right price. She was incredibly patient as we traveled abroad to look at homes over several months. In short, she was always on our side working to make our deal as simple and successful as possible. The best part about working with Rachel was that she was always more focused on answering our questions, giving us good advice, and finding homes that met our needs than she was on closing a deal. We would recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone that needs someone that they can count on.
