      - Paulina Berczynski
    • Leslie is fantastic. I was a first time home buyer when we met, and she walked me through the offer every step of the way, as well as being able to connect me to other knowledgeable professionals. I'd work with her again in a heartbeat.

      - Lauren Locke-Paddon
    • Leslie is a dedicated realtor with a great sense of the market and taste for quality and opportunity, I'd recommend her services!

      - Arjun Banker
    • Leslie has been great answering all my questions In regards to the real estate market in the Oakland area. Also put my wife and I in touch with a good mortgage person this past month. She knows all the right people.

      - David Llewellyn
    • Leslie Bandy has been outstanding to work with. I have been working with Leslie based on the recommendation from good friends and colleagues and she continues to live up to their praise. Leslie is professional, approachable, and available. As first time home buyers she has taken the time to educate us and get to know us, to ensure that we find a home that is a perfect fit. Leslie operates with integrity and transparency, and her guidance and insight has been priceless in navigating the bay area real estate market.

      - Honora Considine Cortelyou
    • Working with Leslie was a dream. Not only is she knowledgeable, reliable, and honest, she is a total expert in the Bay Area housing market. Thoroughness is Leslie's middle name and she knows how to empower buyers to think through everything that's important when buying. I cannot recommend working with Leslie strongly enough.

      - Leta Soza
    • Leslie is the real deal: smart, passionate, and proactive. Whenever I laid any of the thousand real estate questions I had at her feet, or made last-minute requests to meet at an open house, or asked what her personal opinions were on property investment, Leslie was quick to respond and completely on-point. Her real estate knowledge and acumen run deep: from buying first-time homes, to investing in out-of-state rental properties, Leslie has it down cold. I completely trust her input and guidance, especially when it comes to the crazy SF Bay Area housing market. There are tons of real estate agents out there, but few who truly know real estate, let alone love what they do. Leslie is one of those agents. Combined with her integrity and kindness, I'd be hard pressed to find a better agent anywhere. Highly recommended.

      - David Vazquez
    • Leslie stuck with us through the challenging process of acquiring our home in the Oakland Hills. She was always a text or a phone call away to answer any questions and or schedule and appointment to see new properties as they came on the market. She provided this high level of service through the WHOLE process ( which was not an insignificant amount of time). We we're lucky to have Leslie's expertise on our side and are very happy in our new home!

      - Topher & Lauren
    • Leslie is super knowledgeable, easy to work with and generally an awesome person. Shes patiently helped me along with the most expensive decision of my life, and if I ever decide to buy another home, I will definitely work with Leslie again!

      - Sean Jones
    • Leslie is a wonderful, knowledgeable and conscientious realtor. She was a wealth of knowledge about all facets of the real estate process and is an asset to anyone looking to buy.

      - Anya A.
    • My experience with Leslie has always been very positive. Over the years, I have purchased and sold several properties and have always found Leslie to be resourceful, knowledgeable and she has an uncanny understanding of the market place. I would highly recommend Leslie to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.

      - Diana G.
    • Leslie is an excellent agent I would highly recommend to anyone. As a buyers agent she puts in a lot of research to help you find the right neighborhood and house. She's been known to attend neighborhood meet-ups just to get every detail for her buyers looking in that area. On one of our properties she went to meetings and got a wealth of information about future developments in the works as well as HOA requirements...all of that info was critical in our decision to purchase. We love working with Leslie, she is professional, highly intelligent and extremely detail oriented...exactly what you want in the agent representing you on the biggest purchase of your life!

      - Laryssa S.
    • Leslie is an excellent realtor. She is extremely knowledgable about many dimensions of homeownership. I have reached out to her for everything from small things like how to deal with a heater that broke within the first year and big things, like how to handle refinancing and getting home equity lines of credit. She is willing to tell you the good and the bad about homeownership, and I always feel like she is giving me the full picture. She wants her clients to make good decisions and feel confident in them. She is also very responsive. I always get a call or text back within an hour or so, which is awesome. She follows through on her commitments and takes care of the details. I really wish that all people had this kind of experience with their realtor. If you are interested in properties outside of the neighborhood, she also able to help with any property within California. She's been helping me with looking for a home in Sonoma. I can't say enough good things about Leslie.

      - Abbey K.
    • I would highly recommend Leslie. I trusted her 100% and she was very easy to work with. I felt like she went above and beyond. If I ever sell our house or buy another one, I would definitely want to work with Leslie again.

      - Phoebe
    • Leslie has a truly genuine interest in helping her clients and that applies to both buying and selling. With Leslie you have have a person who is in there with you throughout the process. Buying (or selling) a house can be a very stressful experience so it is important to have an agent that can guide you through the process and that you can rely on and trust. Leslie Bandy is that agent and I highly recommend her!

      - Lauren Green
    • Leslie Bandy is a great realtor. She is professional, thoughtful and thorough. She is very knowledgeable about the real estate market and pays attention to the nuances of many of the homes on the market: what makes one desirable and another not so much.

      - Sara Rankin
    • Throughout our housing search, Leslie was extremely available, astonishingly neutral and absolutely RAD. Highly recommend! - She responded patiently and swiftly to our texts and calls (and we had a lot of questions since we are both first-time homebuyers & neurotic). - We never felt like she was pushing us to find something on a certain timeline, nor did she suggest that we see houses that were outside of our budget or didnt meet the criteria we initially communicated. - She didnt seem perturbed when we got a little silly and even laughed at our weird jokes, so we ended up having fun along the way. - We hoped that she would help us find a small house with a big yard, and thats exactly where weve ended up.

      - Roche & Megan
    • Could not speak highly enough of the fantastic and diligent job Leslie did for us! So thorough and knowledgeable, Leslie was much more than we expected. A wholehearted recommendation from us here in Glenview.

      - Jeremy Steiner
    • Leslie communicates quickly and has been great at educating me about the unique real estate market in Oakland. I look forward to finding a property and closing with Leslie.

      - Scott Hibbert
    • Leslie is thoughtful and professional. She helped my husband and I navigate a very complicated housing market with grace. Throughout the process, we felt that she was always looking out for us. We highly recommend her.

      - Kim West
    • The most knowledgeable real estate agent I have ever consulted! Leslie helped me through the intimidating process of buying my own home in Oakland. I look forward to working with her again in the future and have recommended her to several friends. Thanks Leslie!

      - Lila H
    • Leslie has been beyond patient and professional with me and my ongoing property search and endless questions. Every time an interesting property comes along, Leslie gets me in there ASAP, and gets the details to me right away. I feel confident, competitive and ready for a sale very soon.

      - Amy Gotliffe
    • Leslie helped us find and close on a home in 7 weeks (from search to an 11 day closing). She was an amazing wealth of knowledge of the Oakland housing market, and also gave good suggestions on lenders and contractors, with whom she had a great relationship. Leslie has good instincts about homes and does thorough research - detailed review of disclosures, communication with sellers' agents, negotiating preemptive offers, scoping out open houses, and interviewing neighbors. Working with Leslie means you do not have to compromise. With her help we bought exactly the house that we wanted at the price we wanted. If you are an organized buyer that knows what you what, Leslie is the realtor for you. She is exceptionally impartial - never pushy or judgmental (it's going to be *your* future house after all) - and yet always on your side. She provided us with everything that we needed to make an informed decision, and was always honest about the pros and cons of a property or making a deal.

      - Tawana & Rean
    • Leslie is Fantastic! She will go above and beyond to help find the right home for you. I appreciate her knowledge and honesty in this difficult housing market. I highly recommend working with her. You will not be disappointed.

      - Jennifer Jennings
    • Very helpful, even when there is no skin in the game for her. A passionate advocate for homevouyers and the benefits of home ownership. Highly recommended!

      - Brian Boies
    • Leslie was an amazing advocate for my partner and I as we searched for our new home. She was extremely responsive to our questions and proactive to not only answering them, but also helped us know what questions we should be asking. She is generious with her time, knowledge, and kindness. After months of searching and honing in on what we wanted and where, she was incredible through the escrow process through the close. We now consider Leslie a friend and she is already working with close friends of ours to help them find their new home.

      - Kevin B
    • Leslie did a wonderful job with our search. She was open and understanding about what we were looking for and always was able to show us properties that fit our needs. She has very good opinions, but at the same time allows you the space to decide what is best for you.

      - gabriel penfield
    • Leslie provided us with very useful information regarding local real estate trends and how best to navigate the complexities of investing. She also has a great personality and sense of humor that makes working with her interesting and fun.

      - R. A. Nocera
    • Leslie is one of the most genuine, caring, and compassionate people Ive ever met. This puts her in a class unto herself, and makes her a one-of-a-kind realtor. She TRULY CARES about everyone she represents, which means she will always go the extra mile - and with boundless patience - to make sure her clients are well-informed throughout the entire buying and/or selling process, as well as ensure theyre completely comfortable and extremely satisfied about every decision made. Shes approachable, responsive, considerate, thorough, and highly dedicated; unlike many realtors who are in the business just to make a buck, Leslie approaches real estate from the heart, always striving to do whats best for her clients. Could any trait be more important in an excellent realtor? I think not. Leslie is a rare gem, and a truly passionate and caring human being.

      - Flea Fine
    • Leslie is awesome. She's incredibly responsive, understands what you are looking for and helps you navigate the market and all its intricacies. Would recommend her to anyone!
