Lena Gustafsson

Lena was very helpful and accommodating for us while we were in the process of making our first purchase in CA. We were buying from out of state and she was able to work around our schedule when we could fly in and to call or FaceTime otherwise, which was a huge help to us in navigating this process mostly from afar. Additionally, I liked working with her because she was never too pushy or salesy like agents can be sometimes, she gave us space to engage in our terms.

Lena did an amazing job as my agent for selling my single family home. I was truly impressed by her dedication and attention to detail. She was able to sense the market right and position the home well to fetch the price I was looking for. Everything from preparing the home, staging, marketing, timing the open houses etc was very well managed. She went above and beyond to ensure everything was done right. I would strongly recommend using her services.

Lena is very professional and excellent on negotiate for your best interest. I have worked with the team multiple times, and they exceeded on my expectation every time. They are very detail oriented as well, like they care about all the potential flaws that might impact on the sale value and help me addressed all of them before going on the market. In general, I'm very satisfied with their service, and will continue working with them for sure!

We had a wonderful experience working with Lena and the Straser Silicon Valley team. I dont think we would have ever been able to buy a house without their help and support throughout the whole process. They were on top of the inventory and helped us find a house that was within our budget and also met our specifications in what we were most interested in. They helped us with every step in the process from putting an offer in to going through the contracts and even afterwards with some of the furnishings in the house, flooring, all sorts of stuff. They really hold your hand throughout the whole process which is really the best part of working with them. Youre important to them and they really want to help you with every single aspect of buying a house. We now own a house and its the best feeling ever and we are really grateful to both Lena for getting us there

Lena was off-the-charts exceptional. My property required a unique buyer, which Lena and team not only found, but was able to solicit multiple fair offers. Any buyers of my property were pretty much limited to builders, and they have an extensive contact list which they effectively leveraged. They also went above and beyond any reasonable efforts in getting the property ready for sale. You would have to be crazy not to use Lena. Seriously.

We have worked with Lena twice now, once to sell our home a couple years and once to buy a home recently. Shes responsive and goes above and beyond to help.

Lena transformed our home from top to bottom in time for our open house, creating a favorable bidding situation in what would be a current challenging market and secured a highly qualified buyer. After we conducted our initial search Lena with SSV was the very first team we called (based on their backgrounds and prior record home sale in Almaden Winery), and we invited them both to our home for the initial screening. We were very impressed with their presentation, pricing strategy, and the fact that they toured the home taking photos ready to get started which made our decision that much easier to select their services. It was a pleasure to cooperate with them throughout the sale process and later the purchase of a new property. I'd recommend anyone to cooperate with Lena for a real estate professional, based on our very pleasant and professional experience.

The real estate market since July 2022 has been softening everyday. The steep rising mortgage rates and tough underwriting requirements have caused a inordinate amount of DFTs (Deal falling through) while the market is heading towards the low season post Thanksgivings. While most real estate agents would likely push deals through before the winter break, Lena was our advocate representing us as the buyers agent. She was trustworthy, diligent, meticulous and tenacious. I found it rare to meet a Gen Z with the old-school ethics of a Baby Boomer. Lenas service to my wife and I didnt stop at COE. Instead, she followed-through with the repairs so we could move-in smoothly. We were in good hands with Lena and would not hesitate to recommend her to our friends.

Im really happy to meet Lena Gustafsson. She is a member of the Straser Silicon Valley Team. While we were buying this house, she always responded to me immediately when I asked questions . Her team helps me solve some problems, such as house prices, repair, dealing with utilities Thank you - Lena Gustafsson and her team.

moved from California to Colorado and needed help finding a realtor to work with in Colorado. Having known Lena as a realtor in California, I sought her advice. Lena immediately found a match for my needs in the Denver area. Lenas connection with Compass realty and her unique skill in finding a realtor who would work well with me led to my ultimate success in purchasing a home in Colorado. Lena stayed in contact with me throughout the process to ensure that I had the best experience possible.

I cannot say how much I loved working with Lena and her crew. Moving is hard, moving out of state with two toddlers is terrible, but moving with this team mad my life so much easier. From day 1 they worked with us on a timeline, they adjusted when things needed to be adjusted and still kept us on schedule. They helped us work out movers, packers, they took care of staging, cleaning & got us an amazing price. They were available almost around the clock getting us packing material and digging in personally to help ale sure things went smoothly. I didnt have to worry about the little details because Lena took care of it. Lena is a gem! Dont even think to hesitate bc she is there for you!

I met Lena Gustafsson at an open house in my neighborhood and told her I was thinking of selling my house. Her team gave me great advice on selling our house and I decided to work with them. My husband and I are very impressed with their excellent support in selling our townhouse quickly and at a great price. Lena worked very hard to help us from start to finish. We really appreciated her work and would recommend her to anyone looking to sell their house.

Given this unsure market I have been weary to buy a house. However one of my friends referred me to the Lena Gustafsson with the Straser Silicon Valley Team in Menlo Park. Lena was ready to help me and overall the most professional agent I have ever worked with. She was a great negotiator and helped me get a good price for my house that I love.
