About Christine Chang

Christine Chang

DRE #01996509

As a real estate professional, I aspire to be your first & best choice when seeking help with your move. I believe that a home is not a home because of its room dimensions or the color...

of the walls. It’s about how you feel when you walk through the front door and how you envision your life unfolding there. I work hard to get the best home at the best possible price for each of my unique clients. I pride myself on expert market knowledge and outstanding customer service. Originally from Taiwan, studied in Europe, moved to South Africa for 6 years, living in Canada for 15 years, now living in Bay Area, with my diverse cultures/language skills with over 25 years of hospitality management experience, I now use my customer-service expertise to help clients buy homes all around the Bay Area.

About Lorin

District

Lorin District, located between Ashby Avenue and Alcatraz Avenue, is a residential and commercial Berkeley neighborhood with a classic streetcar-grid layout and a well-used BART edge. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Adeline Street at Alcatraz Avenue, where taquerias, produce markets, and small storefronts line the corridor under the rhythm of passing trains. Housing reads as early-20th-century bungalows and compact cottages, with occasional duplexes and corner shops. Lorin’s daily life orbits around local food and community institutions rather than big-box retail. Ashby BART and the Ohlone Greenway shape how people move on foot and by bike. Nearby, Berkeley Bowl, Ashby Stage, and the Lorin District Community Garden act as steady cultural anchors.
