Amazing Realtor, Noreleen stays on top of paper work in a timely manner. She communicates with the other realtor, escrow, and lenders to make sure things are done accordingly. Although everything is completed about three weeks ago she continues to answer all our questions. Noreleen thank you so much for being there for us.

Amazing and extremely responsive! Noreleen was extremely accommodating to my schedule and let us see many different properties to ensure I got the perfect fit for myself. She never rushed me and allowed me to discuss the best option going forward. As a new home buyer I really appreciated the time she spent to explain the details and walk me through the process. She was on top of all the deadlines to ensure that the transaction went through. Even after the purchase went through, Noreleen followed up to ensure I had the next steps for the move in process!

Noreleen was an excellent buyer's agent who was very resourceful and patient with us. Noreleen explained all details of the buying process, which was much appreciated as my wife and I were first time homebuyers. In addition, Noreleen was extremely responsive to our questions, no matter the time of day, and provided excellent advice on how to negotiate the best deal on our behalf. We would highly recommend Noreleen's services to our friends and acquaintances.

We couldn't have asked for a better agent than Noreleen Clarin de Mesa. She was knowledgeable and extremely wonderful to work with. She is resourceful and knows who to call to get things done. She was always there to answer our questions and gave us guidance. She took care of us like we're one of the family. Thank you Noreleen for all you've done to help us out.

Noreleen was very responsive and flexible in working with our schedule. She was patient in answering all our questions, starting from reviewing listings all the way through close of escrow. After viewing just a few properties, she really understood our priorities with things we needed in a home. When we made an offer, we really felt Noreleen advocated for us with the seller's agent who was reviewing multiple bids. We believe that with Noreleen's help, we were able to get the right home for us in an incredibly competitive market.

Noreen was able to guide us through a very unique and interesting time to buy a house. She was 100% professional in the way she worked with us. She also took all necessary measures to safely allow us to enter and show us houses during COVID. On the occasions we had to look at multiple houses in a day, she setup agendas for us to streamline the process. She was always patient and never pushy in guiding us through the home buying experience. After we found a house we liked she was crucial in helping us craft our bid strategy and helped us land a house in an area we deeply desired at a great price. When we went through the closing process she was our rock during a stressful time when we had to seek extensions on contingencies and dealing with sometimes difficult sellers. We never thought...

Noreleen was an absolute pleasure to work with. I was buying a place from Canada; and she patiently explained the whole process to me while working through multiple failed attempts at bidding for homes in the hot San Francisco market. Despite the geographical and time-zone challenges during the home hunting process; Noreleen's promptness, conscientiousness, and diligence ultimately got us our home after 5 months of searching and multiple bids. On a personal side, Noreleen has a great personality; she's always positive, optimistic and uses humour to lighten the mood when needed when things get rough in the process. I consider her both a professional Real Estate Agent and one of my first friends in the Bay Area. I have no hesitation in recommending Noreleen to anyone who's looking to buy... Show More
Noreleen is incredible. Friendly, hard-working and always available to make things happen. We are so glad that was our agent,
Noreleen was very helpful throughout the home buying process. She was very responsive and quick on follow ups via email or phone. She explained in detailed any process that was new to us. She also provided valuable advice to make appropriate offers on the homes we were interested in.
I would happily recommend Noreleen to anyone who's looking to buy a home.

I have recommended Noreleen gladly to other friends of mine who are early in the process of looking for a home. She's helpful, thorough, informed, and has great contacts -- like the mortgage broker who helped me close a challenging financing situation on a multi-family property. I have physical limitations that preclude me from driving, so Noreleen and I searched for months for transit-friendly properties in my price range. I had very specific parameters for location (easily walkable to BART, and a walker-friendly neighborhood). Noreleen respected these, but displayed a creativity that proved vital to ultimately getting a property in this competitive market. I'd looked at condos/houses in SF/Oakland and found the market prices difficult to justify. We found a duplex, which was a very... Show More

Here are the reasons why Noreleen is a great agent: 1) She'll take care of everything. Throughout the buying process, particularly during escrow, she helped to schedule and coordinate everything. She was particularly helpful in securing appointments and ensuring that I had all the experts and inspectors I needed for this property. As a first-time home buyer, this was invaluable. 2) She is excellent at communication and negotiation. For each property I was interested in, she was able to tell me everything I needed to know about what the sellers were looking for in offer terms. This was very important as it allowed me to make the most informed decision about which houses to make offers for and how much those offers should be and it saved me money on the property I did end up purchasing....

Noreleen was personable, thorough, very organized, and always kept me updated on the sale process. She is that dream real estate agent who is there for you every step of the way. She was very clear about what to expect, and handled everything professionally. She really knew the market trends in the different neighborhoods and her pricing recommendation was dead on. I had a tenant in my place and she did a wonderful job explaining to my tenant the process of putting my place on the market and how the tenant would be impacted by the sale. I would definitely work with her again if I had to buy or sale properties, and highly endorse her as one of the best real estate agents out there!
Noreleen was very helpful in selling my condo. Not only did she sell my condo in a few weeks. She got me way above asking price.
Overall, my experience was quite good. I wished at a few points during the process that Noreleen would have been a little clearer with certain things, since this was my first experience selling a home. For example, when I asked her what I should do to prepare my home for photos, she said "Oh, you know, just make it look a bit more stage-y." This was not very informative. There were other moments when I also felt like I would have liked a bit more guidance. Finally, we only reviewed offers a day before what she said was a crucial cut-off (two weeks on the market), and I didn't understand, if it was so important to have the property pending by two weeks, why we didn't allow offers before then... Maybe it made perfect sense, but we went from not reviewing offers to being in a rush to... Show More

As a first time home buyer, working with Noreleen has definitely made the entire buying process easy. She is very professional, very attentive to what you have to say and consistently provides quick turnaround on calls and emails. I definitely benefited from having an agent that can move quickly in today's competitive market. She knows the market well and offers insights to the neighborhoods you are targeting and the real estate landscape in general. Overall Noreleen provides a high level of customer service from the moment you pick up the phone through the moment you pick up the keys. I would absolutely recommend and work with her again.
Noreleen is the consummate professional. She guided us through the entire process of selling my mother's home. She listened our needs and was very patient...I would highly recommend working with her!

Noreleen is the absolute best. She is the Bomb.com and I strongly recommend that you enlist her services in your housing hunt. I was a first time home buyer and managed to find a great property in Alameda, even though I was certain that I was priced out of that market. Noreleen turned me on to a bank owned REO. We won a forclosure auction and she was instrumental in getting a 30 day close for me done so that I could get the keys quickly and move in. She went above and beyond in every way, I have absolutely no buyers remorse thanks to Noreleen =-)

This is a reference for Noreleen de Mesa , of Clarin Realty. I completed a Realtor search for 2-3 weeks collecting recommendations, yelp reviews, and websites looking for a potential realtor to sell my condo at Peninsula Place. There were realtor postcards in the mail, and signs up and about... so I decided to inquire through e-mail about her knowledge and experience. I was impressed that she returned my e-mail quickly. She replied with more references for me to personally contact. Soon a lengthier e-mail about her role and business as a realtor in the Bay Area. She stood out, because she presented me with a plan of action from the start, and the prudent steps in order to successfully sell my condo unit. I especially took notice with her mention of a "deliberate marketing campaign... Show More

I have used Redfin 7 years ago to buy another property. While the saving was great, the Redfin agent didn't help much except the paperwork. I had to do a lot of coordination myself. Based on that past experience, I didn't expect much when I started looking this time. However, I have to say Noreleen over-delivered. She helped me with every step of the process, arranged everything to ensure a smooth connection. She is friendly and firm on negotiations with the listing agent and seller. Noreleen is very responsive, by phone, text or email. If I called her and she wasn't available at the moment, I have never had to wait for more than 10 minutes to hear back from her. At the same time, she never puts pressure on me. If I am unsure about something and have second thought, or want certain... Show More

It was truly our pleasure to have worked with Noreleen. She was incredibly responsive at all hours through all channels (email, phone, text) and detailed oriented throughout the whole process. We were first time home buyers and of course knew nothing about home buying. Noreleen always kept our best interest in mind and guided us through every step of the way. Even after we received our keys, she still maintains communication with us and provides us with as much resources as possible.

Noreleen is a short sale expert. All my research had prepared me for a long and horrible experience. Not so with Noreleen taking care of EVERYTHING! She is amazing and on top of every step in the process 100%. She was there for me before, during and after the close. Even 6 months later when it came to tax time she was there and provided help the same day! If you need someone to trust while doing a short sale she is it.
She;s the best! Very knowledgable, patient and very nice person to deal with!

I was extremely pleased with Norleen's professional and exceptionally meticulous work helping me sell the 199 Montecito Ave (Oakland) condo for a very desirable price. I got the impression the Realtor on the buyer side was a bit disingenuous, but Norleen delicately handled the negotiations with success.
BTW, Norleen was a joy to work with and always promptly got back to me.
