We want to personally thank Esther for the recent sale of our rental property in CA. Communications with Esther were timely and informative. We were never left guessing on next steps. Following several open houses and feedback, Esther guided us through the whole process and the best way to position our property for sale. It was evident she was working on our behalf in the off hours. We were not local so having her on our team was like working with a highly trusted advisor. We appreciate all that Esther managed and her market knowledge to get us to the finish line. Even though we had a few hurdles, she was always optimistic and highly positive. Thank you again. It was a pleasure working with you Esther.

Esther is the best! She was always very responsive, helpful, and calming when things got crazy. And the fun part is, she has become a friend. I have already recommended her.
Overall ok. Most of the times she followed up fast and responded quickly. But a handwritten illegible scribble used as seller's disclosures is unacceptable and still I have to press hard a few times before at last MOST PARTS were typewritten to become legible. Repair items follow-up and final walkthrough could be done better. It turns out a health hazard disclosure (pool) was not revealed and an agreed repair item was not done but "said" to be. Unfortunately these were not identified until after escrow closed. So I am stuck with a fight with the seller practically on my own.

It was a pleasure working with Esther. She is very professional and knew just what to do to maximize our selling price. She is a very good communicator...always easy to get her on the phone or email. In this Covid era with people working from home, good communication is getting harder to find. And when there was a problem, which there always is in every real estate transaction, Esther resolved it quickly and efficiently....and usually in my favor. Thank you Esther!!

My fiancé I were so fortunate to have worked with Esther on the purchase of our first home. Aside from knowing what we wanted, we had very little understanding of the home buying process. Luckily, we had Esther walk us through every step with reassurance and guidance. She constantly checked in with us and was available to answer any of our questions. Esther always had our best interests in mind and I am so grateful she was a part of our experience.

Esther was really great and helping us with the purchase of our first house. She is very responsive and knowledgeable. She explained every single detail of home buying process and it was really helpful as a first-time home buyer. Also, she was always trying to protect us although it was the extreme seller’s market. I would absolutely recommend Esther to anyone buying a house.

Esther is a responsible agent. During our closing, Esther shows very good communication among seller agent, me and loan officer. Following spotlight: 1) She always keep me updated, very responsive. 2) good negotiation with sellers, and buying making strategy. 3) good communication that even though my loan officer missed deadline, she tries her best to make information as transparent as possible

Esther is very good, she is very friendly and helpful. She took care of of the details and ensured that buyer interest is protected. I am very happy to work with her, and convey my Thanks One thing which I want to provide feedback in general not only to Esther but Redfin in general. I found that the outsdie agent like Intereo or Compass have access to lot many resources like houses which are not listed in zillow or redfin also there agent provides many resources realted to fixing your home like plumber/carpenter/contractors/fumigation/movers etc. which I feel missing with the redfin agents, Please equip them to have access to the local ecosystem, so that they can help the buyer to get negotiated and reliable contractors to do the remodel or post jobs

Esther was fantastic to work with. She was very informative and helped us through the buying process (we hadn’t purchased a house in 20 years). She is very knowledgeable and easy to work with.

If Esther is your agent when you set out to buy your new home, know that you have the right person in your corner to help you navigate the complex, at times chaotic home buying process. We worked with Esther to buy and our first home and we were so happy with her guidance, quick follow-ups, and patience to help us find our forever home. After more than a year of searching on Redfin, my family and I finally decided to take the next step and begin looking at open houses in the city of Gilroy. From the little we heard from friends and colleagues as well as what we'd read online, we felt this city met our needs. However, this also meant that we were going to make one of the biggest decisions of our lives without a lot of first hand information. We needed an agent who would know the area,... Show More

Esther went above and beyond on helping us in finding and buying the property. It is hard to imagine what we would do and how much longer it would take us to make a purchase. She took into account our specific situation as out of state buyers, and to certain extend became part of our family. As a result, we found exactly what we were looking for and at the price we were going to pay. We would recommend Esther to a potential buyer without any hesitation!
