Valerie Epting

Outstanding professional. Checks all the boxes. Would recommend without reservation. Five star!

Valerie is ABSOLUTELY THE MOST FANTASTIC real estate agent I've ever known! She diligently, patiently, and professionally worked with and represented me for almost a year - to purchase a hard-to-find gem for me and my two teenage daughters. She expertly, happily, calmly, and efficiently resolved about every type of glitch, mess, and surprise imaginable - from sudden quarrels betw the seller and her own listing agent, arranging contractors to provide estimates to fix various remodel proposals, my own tax/divorce/financing issues, competing buyers - you name it. She's analytical, caring and thoughtful, and refreshingly honest. I'll be using Valerie again, hands down, and have already, gladly recommended her to everyone I know needing professional, thoughtful, accurate advice buying or selling a home. She is truly The Best realtor I've dealt with, in my 25-plus years in the real estate/legal industry.

I found a home to purchase in Martinez with the idea of selling a home in San Jose. Once I contacted Valerie to represent me in the purchase, with her market expertise, she wisely suggested several inspections at an affordable cost that resulted in several concerns. We discussed these at length resulting in a counter offer and several back and forth negotiations. With her help, we brought these issues to the attention of the seller and asked for and received a substantial reduction in the purchase price. Her help was tremendous!

Valerie listened to my needs and helped me find the perfect new home. She is incredibly knowledgeable about the local market, responsive to all my questions, and adept at closing the deal. I would recommend her to all my friends and family!

Valerie Epting excelled beyond each of the five stars! This move was a big relocation move, later in life, and I know for a fact that it was Valeries knowledge, going the extra mile, calmness, and support that helped me get to where I live today. I am so happy here, you found the perfect place. Your after the move recommendations were excellent. Thank you, Valerie, I will not forget you.

I was fortunate to have the pleasure of working with Valerie Epting in making my dream of home ownership a reality. Her market insights, intuitive nature, diligence and responsiveness made the process as simple and successful as possible. Valerie truly had my best interest at heart and succeeded in finding me the best property at the best price. Valerie's professionalism, mentorship, knowledge, honesty and work ethic are second to none. You will not find a harder working realtor in the area. I highly recommend this extraordinary real estate agent, and would absolutely work with her again.

Valerie did a spectacular job getting a price 15% over asking price and managing the entire process from soup to nuts even as the lockdown was implemented for the Covid virus. Buyers and Sellers would be hard pressed to find a more honest, professional and creative Agent than Valerie.

Valerie recently helped us sell our first home and purchase our forever home. Valerie was so wonderful to work with! She is organized, hard working, detail oriented and very knowledgable in every aspect of the buying and selling process. Valerie gained our trust very quickly and always kept her word, allowing the process for my husband and I to be very low stress. This process can be overwhelming, but she was always available to us (day or night) to answer any questions and set our minds at ease. We were so lucky that Valerie was referred to help us. I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.

Valerie was an asset to our home buying experience. When a home of interest located across the street from us came back on the market, she was first to know that the original buyers fell out of contract. She coached us on letter writing and it was our letter that won the sellers approval. She made sure we had the inspections needed to negotiate some credits so we could apply our cash to much needed improvements. She checked in throughout every detail of the home buying experience and even made sure our lender was on track. And of course she stocked the fridge with some celebratory beverages upon closing! We ended up with a home in our neighborhood, a very competitive market. We are so thankful!

Our selling experience with Valerie was outstanding. She helped us every step of the way, giving solid advice with all important phases of prepping the house for sale. Ultimately, she exceeded our expectations in a very difficult time. She sold our house in a pandemic and overcame many barriers to success. I highly recommend Valerie as a realtor and would gladly use her again to sell or buy. She is trustworthy, hardworking, and will do what is right for you as the client.
