Bernice did an outstanding job assisting me with the purchase of my condo. She was instrumental in getting my offer chosen over other competitive offers. She was involved with all aspects of the purchase and closing. Overall, it was a super smooth, easy, and seamless process thanks to Bernice. I absolutely recommend her to help you buy or sell house.

Hands down, Bernice is the best in the business! I found her through Zillow when I decided to relocate to the Costa Mesa area from Northern California, and I couldn't be happier with my experience. As a forever renter and a first-time homebuyer, I was anxious about the whole process, but Bernice took the time to explain everything to me and referred me to a fantastic mortgage broker. Buying during a time of high interest rates and low inventory was challenging, but Bernice's dedication truly shone through. After a few showings, I fell in love with a specific community of beautiful detached townhomes with rooftops and an ocean view. Unfortunately, none were for sale, and I was less than 60 days away from my move date. But Bernice didn't back down. She went above and beyond, knocking on doors and handing out flyers. Thanks to her hard work, she found a homeowner willing to sell off-market. She even helped them find a new home further south, making the deal happen right on time. Bernice literally did the impossible, securing the house I wanted in the exact location and timeframe I needed. Buying a home is not easy, especially for a first-timer, but Bernice was with me every step of the way. By the end of the process, I not only had a new home but also a new friend in Bernice. If you're looking to buy in the Costa Mesa, Newport, or surrounding areas, I would HIGHLY recommend working with Bernice. You will be thankful that you did! Bernice, thank you again for everything!!

Bernice is the most strategic and professional realtor I've ever worked in the past. I interviewed 5 other local well-known realtors specialized in the Newport Beach / Costa Mesa area, but she excelled in every categories. She suggested the best timing to list instead of rushing. She also helped me to set the market-sensitive listing price based on comps, market trends and analytics. It was not the highest listing price compared to other realtors suggested, but it was an excellent call. As a result, she created more traffic than I expected for open house. I ended up choosing the buyer she brought, and negotiated to the reasonable price in very short period of time. Again, her advice was based on data, not emotions. She didn't always tell me what I wanted to hear, but she always gave me great advices for making right decisions. All transactions were extremely smooth. I highly recommend Bernice.
