We recently bought our first home with Helen and we are forever grateful for her! When we first met Helen, she impressed us with her honesty. She is down to earth and she has great listening skills. Helen is readily available to tour any open houses with us and to answer any questions that we had. While she gives her insight and suggestions to guide us when we put in an offer, she truly respects our decisions and has never pushed us to do anything that we don’t feel comfortable with. We encountered a few problems during closing, but Helen handled every situation proactively and professionally. She is knowledgeable on buyer’s rights and how things should be done and goes above and beyond for us to problem solve. Helen is very transparent and communicates effectively with us, which gives...

We recently worked with Helen Li to find our dream home in Redwood City, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Helen is an incredible agent who goes above and beyond to help her clients. She is always energetic, helpful, and available 24/7 to answer any questions or concerns we had. What we appreciated most about Helen is her proactive approach. She did not just wait for us to come to her with questions, but instead took the initiative to provide us with valuable insights and suggestions that helped us make an informed decision. She took the time to understand our needs and preferences and worked tirelessly to find properties that met our requirements. Throughout the entire process, Helen never forced any of her opinions on us. Instead, she listened to our concerns, offered... Show More

We recently worked with Helen and she exceeded all of our expectations! From start to finish, she was professional, knowledgeable, and truly cared about finding the perfect home for our family. She listened to our needs and wants, and were always available to answer any questions we had. Thanks to her hard work and determination, we were able to close on the home of our dreams. We would highly recommend Helen to anyone looking for a real estate agent who truly puts their clients first.

Professional, patient and knowledgeable. Excellent service!
It was a great experience working with Helen! She helped me hunt the targeted houses that fit my requirements, analysis and explained the Prons and Cons for each one. When it comes to the dicision making, she never pushes me to offer but analyzes the current market and my situation, and then suggests me a better timing to take action. She always takes action ahead of me and negotiated with the seller agent & the lender, hard-working, and replies to massage immediately. I wouldn't survive the dramatic challenges during the closing days. She always looks for solutions for me positively and fights for the maximum benefits for me. I appreciate her assistance in helping me buy my first house and will definitely refer her to all my friends who have real estate purchases interested in the future!

Helen was a true professional and a great person! For a first time homeowner, we couldn't have asked for a better agent -- she not only quickly picked up on the type of places we were looking for, she also ensured that we had all the information so that we could make the best decision possible. There were so many times that we didn't understand the process and she was able to break it down for us. It was also very easy to coordinate showings and open houses with her and she always made herself available even with very short notice. Helen's honesty and dedication were so much appreciated! Furthermore, it was extremely valuable to have someone who was so familiar with the area, as she was able to provide insight on the different HOAs and neighborhoods. Helen never pressured us and was... Show More

We were first time homebuyers, and Helen did a great job guiding us through the entire journey of purchasing a house. She educated us on what aspects of the home were important and was readily available to answer any questions we had, and also met with us virtually to discuss disclosure reviews / house buying strategy. Most importantly, she put our needs first and wanted to make sure that the house we were getting was right for us: there were a few homes that we thought looked good on paper but Helen pointed out the pitfalls for those homes and advised us against them, which ended up being the right decision. Thanks Helen!

Three words to describe Helen? Empathetic, encouraging, and efficient. Helen was a fantastic realtor. We're first time homebuyers, and Helen guided us through several offers to finally land our ideal home - an unlisted one she found for us. Extremely knowledgeable about our local mid-Peninsula market, Helen counseled us throughout the process. As she often reminded us, "You will get the best home". In her hands, I'm confident her clients will!

Helen was wonderful to work with. She was super responsive and made it easy to schedule showings that worked for our schedule, even on very short notice. In such a challenging market for buyers, she was realistic about setting expectations but simultaneously really kept our spirits up and insisted the right home was out there. We are thrilled we found our perfect home!

It's been a blast working with Helen! I really appreciated her patience throughout the process. It never felt like I was pressured into giving offers even after months of looking. If anything I was the more impatient one haha. I'm glad she was there to help me navigate a fairly difficult time in the market (everything is very expensive for buyers). I also really loved that she was so accessible, I could text/reach out to her at any moment. I felt bad contacting her late sometimes, but she was always very responsive and willing to chat! Overall would definitely recommend Helen and her team, it made the entire house purchasing process more tolerable :)

Helen is very helpful in searching and purchasing our new home. We are very satisfied with her service and would highly recommend her to friends. She has extensive knowledges in real estate and real-time monitoring of housing market. I believe these advantages stand her out in searching houses. Helen's customer obsession mindset led to a smooth/rewarding purchasing experience for us. Her prompt response / logical analysis helped us make logical decisions based on pros/cons specifics. Helen had excellent biding strategies when working with us. The pricing and timing were set precisely so we got our current home in a good price without getting our hands dirty in a biding war.
Helen is a professional and experienced agent. She's really supportive and responsive the whole time, during the home tour she always tells us about the pros and cons about the house, which is really helpful. We would choose her again if we want to buy/sell a house in the future.

Helen was very motivated and focused on finding us a good home that fits our lifestyle. On multiple occasions she worked till midnight to prepare and submit our offers. She always made herself available when we had to see a house quickly, for example when we thought we may want to submit a preemptive offer. On a couple of houses our offers had very slim chance of winning because of our budget limitations but Helen still gladly put the effort and prepared our offer. Overall Helen is not only a good realtor but more importantly a good person. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a house.
