Cheryl helped and guided my daughter in buying their first home in South San Francisco CA. As happy times go by and with their daughter and another boy on the way, their two-bedroom starter home has served its usefulness and purpose and so they decided to move on. Cheryl's expertise came to mind. They contacted this very likable young woman without hesitation, in preparation for selling their home. They only have one thing in mind which is a smooth transaction, as not to add to their worries about my health and impending major operation on Dec. 2005. With Cheryl's knowledge and experience, the house was sold even before it was ready for an open house and within a few months, Cheryl found them a much-suited home in Millbrae California for their growing family. Everything went pretty well and the major invasive procedure done to me was very successful as well. Thanks, God. My wife and I decided to sell our rental property in San Jose California in Oct 2017. My daughter asked me if I know a Realtor®. I said no, but I lied. I have a niece who is very close and dear to me and who is also a Real Estate agent. I'm sure that she would be able to sell the property but I'm not sure how our business relationship would be, as her client and a niece working as my agent. So sorry that I lied but not my decision for bringing Cheryl aboard as my number one choice. My daughter has so much admiration for Cheryl and suggested her proven credibility. After some minor spruce-up, Cheryl put our rental house on the market in about the middle of Nov 2017. It was sold over the asking and closed on the first week of Jan 2018. Cheryl works diligently and managed to find us a replacement property that we like. Our offer was accepted on the second week of January 2018 and will close in January 2018. I highly recommend Cheryl to anyone who wants good results. Because of her outstanding ability, integrity, kindness, perseverance, dedication, and professionalism.

We started working with Cheryl in 2001 when we were looking for our first home in South San Francisco. Cheryl patiently informed and walked us throughout the home buying process: showing us a variety of properties within our budget and preferred areas, educating us of the various disclosures and contingencies, effectively negotiating prices, and going through escrow. With Cheryl by our side, we felt confident and happy to have found our perfect first home. When we outgrew of our first home in 2010, Cheryl was the first person we thought of to represent us as the listing agent and buying agent for our next home. What stands out about Cheryl are the conventional or unconventional tactics she uses as a seller to maximize exposure of your property to increase interest or as a buyer to stand out among the multiple offers and appeal to the buyer. Cheryl has a network of contacts that have been helpful throughout the buying/selling processes roofers, painters, mortgage brokers, tax accountants, etc. She has also built a network of agents outside the Bay Area. Cheryl is very responsive via phone, email, text. We were able to easily e-sign documents as well. There are no lapse connections or assistance. We Cheryl has provided excellent service over the years. We are grateful to have an amazing relationship with Cheryl!

Cheryl is the most professional, honest, attentive, and amazing Realtor® estate professional I’ve ever known and worked with. She sold me my first condo over 15 years ago and has represented me over the years with other transactions. She’s always treated me like a friend, not just another client. She has an endless amount of patients and works above and beyond to make her clients happy. Cheryl is very responsive and is always available to share her professional knowledge. Her dedication to fulfilling her client's needs and the care she puts into everything she does is what every person wants from a real estate agent. I have recommended Cheryl to many family members and friends over the years and everyone has had success, both buying and selling, with Cheryl. They can’t stop saying how wonderful she is as a person and to work with. If you’re looking for someone who has an ample amount of experience and knowledge in real estate as well as someone who has dedication and heart in her profession, I would recommend Cheryl 110%!
