My partner and I are first time homebuyers and were nervous going into this process. Simon was recommended to us by friends and we couldn't have been happier with his service. He made us feel comfortable and confident in our search for and eventual purchase of a home. He was encouraging and diligent without being pushy or making us feel pressured. He responded quickly and thoroughly. He was available when we needed him and he truly cared about our success. He made us feel like a priority. He followed through on all loose ends and made sure we understood the process at each step.Our search for a home was a chaotic experience. We bought into a new development which burned down a few months after we paid a deposit. Simon stuck with us all along while we waited a year for things to get back on track. He made sure we stayed up to date on the progress and checked in on us frequently. The condo was finished in the midst of the current pandemic and Simon was still right there working with us and doing the extra due diligence of making sure that all parties were adhering to the social distancing order. If you want a real estate agent who will be there for you even during times of disaster and global pandemic then Simon is your agent.

Searching for a dream house can be a very exciting but also a daunting experience. Therefore, my partner and I wanted to choose the right realtor for it. We planned on interviewing several agents, but after meeting with Simon (our second interview) we chose him because he seemed an extremely honest, refreshingly direct, and knowledgeable professional. There was a "quiet confidence" about him, which we really liked as we did not want to work with a pushy broker of a "car salesman personality". Our choice turned out to be right. Simon has the patience of a saint who really let us take the lead in any decision-making. He was very attentive to our likes and dislikes in our search. He listened and took a lot of time to find the houses that were the right fit for us. In fact, we were quite surprised how perfect his suggestions were for us. Simon's knowledge base is much more extensive than what I imagined a realtor would need to know, which added immeasurably to his helping us in our search. We did not once feel intimidated or pressured by him. He shared his knowledge and experience about the Bay Area housing situation, which is an extremely competitive marketplace. He spent a lot of time showing us houses in private showings beyond regular hours (early mornings & evenings) as we work long hours. Simon is one of the most devoted professionals we have ever worked with. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an agent in a tough house market and we would use him again in a heartbeat.

This is a long overdue review for our realtor, Simon Black.Our friends introduced us to Simon at the beginning of our house hunt in early 2021. We had talked to a few realtors and after our 1st meeting with Simon, we knew he was the person we wanted to work with during the craziest housing market in history. We were lucky enough to work with Simon for about 6-7 months, more than half of which we were actually out of state. When youre looking to purchase a house remotely, you know youre going to need someone who is an excellent communicator, diligent, competent and reliable. Simon always puts your best interest first. He is like a machine learning algorithm who works to understand what you like, what you dont like and continues to refine his searches tailored to your preferences. Throughout and even after the closing process, Simon would continue to check in and send recommendations our way (such as contractors, cleaners, etc). Simon has an extensive network of professionals including the best loan agents in the industry and saved us the trouble of having to find one ourselves (and the rates were very competitive during that time). We were also able to work with one of his home networking/security referrals who was super professional and had great quality of work (thanks Simon!!).Needless to say, Simon sets the bar high for realtors -- he should be the normal and not the exception. We are so grateful to have Simon as part of our house search and would recommend him in a heartbeat! You wont regret it :)
