  • Alex helped me buy a home

      First rate. He runs a good office. I will use him again if I sell, and he helped my son and his wife find an excellent home in San Carlos. Did an excellent job for them as well.

    • Our review is based on the experience that Alex Wang is, simply, the best realtor you can get in the Bay Area. Alex stands apart in his field because he isn't trying to tell you to buy a house you don't really want and he isn't telling you how much you should bid, but he asks the probing questions and provides you with the strategic guidance to help you get the outcome you truly want.We had a lot of different ideas about what our next move would look like when we started house-hunting, and Alex patiently helped us work through our many different ideas. Alex's calm, thoughtful, and honest demeanor worked well for our family. He speaks intentionally and to add value, which means we really listened and carefully considered his input. His communication method and strategic advice cuts through the noise and he provides what you need to know and when you need to know it, while always respecting your time.In Bay Area real estate, where the stakes are so high, this is the one area not to cut corners. In our case, we feel very lucky to have found that highly experienced, organized, and straight-talking realtor, and we have no doubt his negotiation skills landed us in our dream home. It wasn't easy. We went up against way too many other bids, went through a round of offers and counter-offers, and with Alex's counsel, came out with the winning bid. We went from having our bid accepted and selling our old house in the area in less than 90 days, thanks to his very competent and professional team who managed every little detail to get the house ready. Our selling experience with Alex was also everything we could have wanted: we sold our old house to a family (which is what we hoped for) and for more than we expected in record time and with no hiccups.A personal reference is the highest compliment, which is why we are adding a 5-star review and have already referred friends to Alex.
