When I was preparing to sell my house, I thought of Betty, whom I met many years ago. She was very professional and answered all my questions. She helped me get quotes from contractors, gave me multiple options, and helped me follow up on renovations to my house. During the process of buying a house, she guided me patiently and responsibly, helping me deal with various things that happened so that the house could be sold quickly. It was a pleasure to work with her. I highly recommend her.

We seeked Betty's help in finding our first home together and we are so grateful that we did.

Our journey felt impossible at times. Betty's expertise in the Bay Area market is what kept us calm and hopeful that we would eventually find something that fit our wants and needs.

After understanding our requirements, Betty provided insights into our neighborhoods of interest, raising important considerations that we would need to understand and sometimes even providing a healthy "dose of reality" on whether it was realistic to be looking there. She would at the same time suggest other similar areas that we might be interested in and taught us how to evaluate them as potential homeowners. This was very helpful in narrowing down where we felt were the best areas for us and the types of homes that we should be seeking.

When it came time to submit offers, Betty repeatedly coached us (but was careful not to influence us) on how to submit the strongest bids that we were comfortable with. We knew that we were in good hands when even some selling agents at open houses recalled Betty by name as our agent and expressed how impressed they were when they were working together.

Thank you Betty for your patience, expertise and dedication in helping us achieve this dream!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Betty Chen as my real estate agent, and I cannot speak highly enough of the outstanding service she provided. From our initial meeting to the closing of my dream home, Betty consistently demonstrated professionalism, patience, and an unparalleled commitment to her clients' needs.

One of Betty's standout qualities is her extraordinary patience, especially in the highly competitive housing market we find ourselves in. She took the time to understand my preferences and guided me through the process with unwavering patience. In a market where time is of the essence, Betty's ability to remain calm and composed was truly invaluable.

Betty's expertise goes beyond the standard real estate agent role. She offered a wealth of insightful suggestions that proved instrumental in making informed decisions. Her knowledge of the market trends and understanding of the intricacies of the home buying process were evident in the guidance she provided. It's rare to find an agent who goes the extra mile to ensure their clients are well-informed, and Betty certainly exceeded my expectations in this regard.

In addition to her exceptional real estate skills, Betty also demonstrated a commitment to excellence by referring trustworthy handymen for various types of work. Whether it was a minor repair or a significant renovation, Betty had a network of reliable professionals ready to assist. This not only streamlined the process but also saved me the hassle of searching for reputable service providers on my own.

One of the most refreshing aspects of working with Betty was her approach to the home-buying process. At no point did she pressure me to make an offer, and she respected my timeline and decision-making process. This level of professionalism and respect for the client's needs sets Betty apart from many other agents who may prioritize closing deals over client satisfaction.

Beyond her professional attributes, Betty is a genuinely nice and smart individual. Her warm personality and approachability made the entire experience enjoyable. I felt confident that I had an advocate in my corner who truly cared about finding the right home for me.

In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Betty Chen to anyone in search of an exceptional real estate agent. Her patience, insightful suggestions, trustworthy referrals, and respectful approach make her an invaluable asset in the competitive real estate market. Working with Betty was not only a wise decision but also a pleasure, and I am grateful for the positive impact she had on my home-buying journey.

Working with Betty was an absolute pleasure. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Betty to purchase my home. I couldn't be more impressed with the level of service and dedication Betty provided.

From the initial consultation to the final closing, Betty demonstrated a level of professionalism and market expertise. She took the time to thoroughly understand my specific needs and preferences, providing valuable insights into various neighborhoods and pricing strategies.

Throughout the home buying process, Betty impressed me with a remarkable level of responsiveness and communication. Each time Betty noticed that I have questions or need more clarity, she proactively scheduled a meeting for us to discuss the concerns, patiently answer all my questions. She always listens actively, seeks clarification, communicates effectively and works together to explore the best solution.

Thank Betty so much for making this house buying journey such a positive and memorable experience!

I would highly recommend Betty as your agent! She's incredibly knowledgeable, exceptionally patient, and won't sugarcoat any issues with properties. Her candid advice on settlement conditions, foundation types, location, and layout was invaluable for us as first-time homebuyers. Betty is very resourceful and she was able to connect us with experts within a few hours for foundation inspections, which made our decision-making process much smoother.
She’s also very responsive. Whenever we have questions about disclosure, Loan or even remodeling, she would quickly reply with details.
Overall, Betty is a highly knowledgeable, transparent, and responsive agent.

Betty is the best agent I've worked with.
Working with her, we managed to buy our current perfect house in a super competitive market. She has a very accurate estimation of properties, and she maintains good relationships with other agents and real estate companies too.
Besides her professionalism, she is also very patient and kind. She never pushed us to make offers if we were not 100% satisfied with a house. She is so considerate that she even sent cards to our new neighbors.
She is also very resourceful, after we bought the house, we decided to do some remodel, Betty continued to help us with finding the right contractor, AC guy, floor guy etc. We really appreciate the help and resources.
In a nutshell, I highly recommend Betty and would definitely work with her again in the future!!

I worked with Betty to buy our new house in the bay area (Santa Clara county).
She was really professional and kept our preferences in mind all the time. We've been looking for a new house for 6 months and she always gave us recommendations that matched the life style my wife and I were looking for. Along the way, we learned a lot about real estate market, how to read inspection reports, how to gauge seller's interest and predict the final sold price of a certain house, etc.
Betty was also resourceful in getting us a lot of recommendations for contractors, handymen, sales reps in major construction-material stores which helped us bootstrap/head-start the remodeling process even before the transaction was closed.

Throughout the entire journey, Betty's dedication and unwavering support shone through, ultimately leading us to secure our dream home.

Betty is the best agent I ever met! I know her because my friends recommended her to me and they purchased their first home with Betty's help. When working with Betty, I found I really like her as an agent.

1. She has a lot of expert knowledge about how to choosing a house and she's very transparent and honest. Every time when we went to open houses together, she alway analyzed the pros and cons of the houses to us. Without her help, I wouldn't know the cons of many houses.
2. She is very patient and really cares about buyers. She's never pushy to ask us to make offers. When the market was not good for buyers, she suggested us to wait a little bit.
3. She reaches out to buyer agents frequently whenever we have any questions. She's really good at communicating with other buyer agents.

To sum up, I highly recommend Betty if you want to find an agent!

Betty is the best agent I have worked with and I highly recommend as her as a buyer agent. She is very professional with a strong work ethic, and puts a lot of effort to understand the requirements of her clients upfront. The thing that stood out for us was her fact/data based approach because of her knowledge of the market. Moreover, her immense network in this field not only helped us understand the process but also helped us win the offer on our current home. She also goes out of her way to provide resources and references for misc remodeling and financial help.

Lastly, Betty ensures that the client is fully satisfied before the offer is made, which was a big thing for us as home buyers and made this overall experience very comfortable.

Betty is helpful, detailed oriented, geniune and most importantly professional. She knows and is able to explain all the details of any listing that we were interested in, good or bad. We showed huge interest in one property and she spent hours looking into all the reports and recommended not pursuing it because of some not easily visible drawbacks, we also wanted to compete for some crazy high offer and she held us back from wasting the money on something that's not worth it. We ended up getting the dream house, dream size, dream plan, best location and community at a incredible price with a preemtive offer. I enjoyed working with her from the minute we met her. Strongly recommend!!

I would highly recommend Betty to anyone who is not only looking for their perfect home, but also wants to make the right choice and a smart investment. You are in a good hand with her and her knowledge of real estate.

As the first-timer buyer, I entered the market with lots of questions, sense of unsure and hesitation. Betty answered all of my questions, do the checking for me and most importantly, never rushed me to make any decision. She genuinely cares about her clients and always considers the problems from the perspective of mine. She successfully helped me get the house at a great location with a great price in a competitive market. I enjoyed working with her from end to end. Strongly recommend!!

Betty helped us get our home in a very competitive market. She helped us in the process along the way, explaining the risks and never pushing us to go higher on the bid letting us make the decision. Also during escrow, she coordinated very effectively with title and lender to get us to close on time as well as helped us get appraised successfully too.

It was a pleasure working with Betty, and I would happily work with her again in the future.

Betty is the BEST and most effective real estate agent we’ve ever met. Her professional advice and hands on experiences not only help us to successfully purchase the ideal house but also guide us in so many other aspects through the whole process.

We highly recommend Betty!

As first-time homebuyers looking for a home in a very competitive market and trying times, we had many questions and confusions. We interviewed multiple realtors and chose to work with Betty for her patience, experience, honesty, and utter familiarity with the region. Many of our friends describe their home buying experience in San Francisco as stressful and disappointing, but our experience with Betty was joyful. Throughout the process, with her industry expertise, great experience, and tireless dedication, Betty helped us to purchase the ideal single-family home in San Francisco city. As a very knowledgeable agent, Betty always took her time to explain the details and processes to us. Since we are both novices to the home buying process, she was also with us every step of the way, explaining every transaction aspect patiently. Betty is also very responsive, and we always feel that we are in good hands with her. We especially recommend Betty to anyone ready to become a first-time buyer in San Francisco city and the Bay area. It was great working with Betty, and we won't hesitate to work with her again.

I highly recommend Betty! Betty is very professional and will help with anything you need. She is very pleasant and easy to work with. It has been one year since the first day we met Betty until we found and closed on our new home. She is very patient and listened to what we want, provided professional suggestions, and helped us make the best decision in terms of whether to make an offer or not, how much the offer should be based on our budget and comps, and current competition status. Whenever we have housing related questions, we still reach out to Betty. She is still helping us find solutions in no time. She is our life-time housing guru. If you are thinking about looking or selling your house, I highly recommend you to call Betty. She will do all she can for you.

Betty was a great help to us in purchasing a home in the East Bay. She was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions about the areas, different types of properties, various options related to school zone, commute, and price point. It really helped us narrow down our broad search to two specific areas, and we went and saw a lot of different properties. She was always high energy and on-the-ball when it came to communications and paperwork, especially during the closing process when there was a lot of back-and-forths with the lender and seller. We couldn't imagine going through the difficult process without her!

I knew Betty as one of my friends referred her to me when I decided to purchase a house in bay area. My friend just brought the dream house with Betty's help; thus I have very good first impression of her.

Betty is a very responsible agent, as well as enthusiastic and professional. She is always responsive to my request and questions and very active in providing various information about the house I am interested in. During the process we were searching for a house, she is knowledgable in every single one -- she can thoroughly leverage the pros and cons and estimate its value based on historic data. She also reached out to an attorney to figure out laws/policies that could affect the sales price in the future.

I really appreciate her professionalism and would recommend her to everyone interested in purchasing a house.

Betty is an excellent agent who is persistent, knowledgeable and genuine. My search required a property that meets specific criteria and Betty did a great job identifying solid candidates over a period of several months. She is very honest and partners with clients to identify opportunities that truly fit their needs, and in the process builds long lasting relationships!
