As first-time home buyers, we relied heavily on The Kalahele Group’s expertise and overall knowledge of the market. Their persistence and strategy with the sellers were a huge catalyst in achieving our dream home. Having a dependable and patient agent helped with many of the stresses that surround purchasing a home. I would highly recommend The Kalahele Group and any of their knowledgeable staff to all my friends and family with a purchase or sale of their home!

Brad helped us in buying our first home. My wife and I were very skeptical about taking this huge step with a lot of unknowns but after we hired Brad as our realtor he sat us down and went over the whole process with a lot of details that every first-time homeowner is usually not aware of. Brad was super patient and always available to guide and answer any questions we had. Once we started the house-hunting process Brad was even more active and involved and would schedule and walk through every detail of the houses we saw. In spite of the COVID situation with new rules and restrictions, Brad made sure the process went smoothly always. Brad is also a...

We are first-time home buyers! Aiden was very helpful and supportive! He walked us through the entire process and was very patient in answering all of our questions.

Laura was very knowledgeable about the areas I was looking for and worked day or night to make sure any questions were answered. She helped every step of the way with honesty throughout the process and went through negotiations impressively. I loved the flexibility she was able to provide with an excellent team behind her back! I would definitely recommend Laura to friends or family and for my future real estate purchases! She’s been able to help with one of my biggest blessings, I couldn’t be more thankful I chose her as my agent.

I am very appreciative of the job Jessica did for me. I am happily in my new home in Aptos and thank Jessica for making it happen. Jessica knows the local area, understands the market, and gave good guidance in my decision-making. More importantly, Jessica listened to me understood what my buying parameters were, and worked within those parameters. All leading to a very happy client! I highly recommend Jessica as your agent!

Is it possible to get a dream home with a deal price (lower than listing) during this crazy real estate market? I would say yes if you are working with Nandik. We got to know Nandik through Facebook and the first time we met during an open house. I must say that I have never seen a guy who has more patience than a mom. Since it was COVID time when we started searching for a home, he had to come with us each and every time to show us the houses. He was always coming to open houses with a lot of patience and a big smile. He spent hours answering our questions and providing objective data. I’ve recommended Nandik Vora to everyone I know. He is a true p...

Purchasing a home can be incredibly stressful, but The Kalahele Group made our real estate buying experience extremely easy. Their patience and attention to detail helped our family to find a place that not only fell within our budget, but also took into consideration local school rankings and neighborhood ratings. Their professionalism exemplifies what every home buyer should be searching for in a real-estate agent. Their dedication and persistence landed us into an amazing home!

Johnny was experienced and helpful. His advice and support through closing was invaluable. He was polite, available, friendly, and knowledgeable. We could not have done it without him. I recommend Johnny to anyone looking to do any Real Estate deals. I wouldn’t work with anyone else!

Upon first impression, Robin immediately came off as friendly, heartwarming, and genuinely sincere. This stood to be true throughout my whole experience working with her. Don’t let that fool you though, at the negotiation table she wins, no question about that. This makes her very easy to work with, not only is she a pleasure to work with, but I can trust she will get the deal done. She’s also quick to respond and very communicative which helped put my mind at ease during some stressful points of the contract period. You will want someone like her at bat for you to secure your home, especially during more competitive bidding. 10/10 would partner wit...

We are so happy with the outcome of the sale, which we never imagined to be at such a premium. The Agent/s have the expertise, and wisdom, coupled with marketing strategies, negotiation skills, and attention to detail that contributed to getting unprecedented bids and offers. Coulter is very dependable, thorough, and professional and worked hard, even evenings meeting up with the Contractors and Home Inspector. I really appreciate Coulter’s patience and diligence in order for us to achieve our goal of selling our house at a premium. Coulter was on top of things and kept us informed every step of the way. My family and I are very grateful to Coulter ...

Had a great experience working with Kelly Baldwin and Brett Jennings. They were very data-driven and transparent, as well as considerate and attentive. They kept me informed and explained all our decision points and options clearly, and at the end of the process, I felt like we had made all the right decisions – even when some were tough and non-obvious. I wouldn’t have wanted to be working with anyone else selling my home and look forward to working with them again when the time comes.

We were totally shocked by how smooth the whole process was. Sean was always very good with giving a time when he would get back to us, kept us in the loop with every step of the process, and went through all the inspections at the house for us. Sean taught us so much in the short amount of time he was helping us and we are very thankful for him. After a little over a month from getting into the contract, we received our keys from Sean!

We were first introduced to Lin-Lin by a neighbor and had her sell our condo in Sunnyvale. Two years later, she also helped us buy our current home in San Jose’s Almaden Valley. She has a wealth of knowledge and experience, has great communication, is punctual, knowledgeable, and very responsive. Sounds fundamental, but you’d be surprised how many agents lack these characteristics. As a plus, she also speaks Mandarin! Would highly recommend for all your Real Estate needs!

Sean exceeded our every expectation. He educated us on the entire process and gave us tips about what to look for in an agent or home without making us feel like we were already in some kind of contract with him. Sean was very professional, honest, extremely knowledgeable, easygoing, had a sense of humor, and even owned his own brokerage! Sean helped us get our offer ready, submitted, and accepted within 6 days.

Brett was great, got our home sold in one week. He and his team were very professional and got us above market price. I was impressed with his process and negotiation skills.

Sold a home in Willow Glen, San Jose, CA. My mother recently passed away. I knew immediately that I wanted Brett to help me sell her home. Not much impresses me. However, when I met with Brett for our first meeting in this process, he knocked my socks off with his organization, presentation, and professionalism. He was not only full of knowledge but also very compassionate and personable, reducing any/all stress and making me extremely comfortable. He is very supportive of his clients and enthusiastic to help them in any way possible. He has a deep understanding of the market and trends, a strong desire to make all my hopes and dreams a reality, and...

I bought a property recently with Ms. DeLaere’s help as my agent. In short, this property would have belonged to someone else today if it wasn’t for her intelligence, expertise, dedication, and responsiveness. She acts fast when she sees an opportunity. I was the first to know when the property became available. I thank her for being very fast to act. She knows exactly what needs to be done and when. With many years of experience, she moves things very quickly, professionally, and in a timely manner. She advised me from time to time and reminded me of my rights and what I could and couldn’t do with this purchase. She is definitely on my side when ne...

We had the pleasure of working with Brad and the team to purchase a new home and sell our current home. From the first time we met Brad at an open house, he impressed us with his friendliness, knowledge, and no-pressure sales approach which we appreciated as we were just starting to look at houses. Lo and behold, we found a house and needed a realtor, Brad came to mind. He quickly helped us put together an offer, counteroffer, and navigate the closing process which went smoothly. He then helped us sell our existing house making suggestions on improvements to make it more appealing in this tight housing market. We really appreciated his easy demeanor...

I have already highly recommended Chris to my friends and counterparts. Trying to find a home while living in Singapore could have been very challenging, Chris has been awesome at following up on questions and actions in a very thorough and expeditious manner. He was also very good at negotiating with the opposing realtors and ensuring that all details were getting addressed despite my busy schedule. I am a critical judge and rate Chris a 5 out of 5.

Brad did a great job managing the sale of my home getting the highest price possible in the shortest period of time. I would recommend Brad to anyone selling their property in Silicon Valley.

Sold a home in Willow Glen, San Jose, CA 95125. We first met Brett when we were thinking about buying a new home and potentially renovating and selling our own. After several months, we decided to hold off but then later realized that our best bet was to sell. Because he and his team were so helpful and knowledgeable the first time around, We called Brett, and within less than 10 days our home was staged and listed, and within 5 more it was sold. The entire process was positive and seamless and we could not have been happier with the result. We’d definitely recommend Brad and his team to anyone looking to buy or sell.

Working with Amber was a fantastic experience. Her enthusiasm and desire to find us the right home was evident in every interaction. Ultimately, she located our dream home and worked closely with the sellers on a smooth transaction that left both parties happy. I’m a type-A personality. That said, it was important for me to understand the details of every step of the search and the actual purchasing process. Amber was not only patient, but she was also always on top of the next steps and proactive with her communication. This was extremely helpful and brought a level of ease knowing our agent was always one step ahead. I would, and do, recommend Amb...

We have used Chris with 4 of our different home purchases, and we have been pleased with each of our transactions. I have also referred Chris to our family and friends. Your home is possibly the greatest investment you will have, so why not work with a realtor who knows his stuff? We will work with Chris again.

We first met Kelly at an open house and immediately fell in love with her personality and willingness to help. My husband and I had been going to open houses for quite some time before we met her and we never really made any connections or contacted any agents we talked to before. With Kelly, we felt very comfortable and at ease. Kelly was very helpful and friendly from the very beginning; she took her time explaining to us the current market trends and resources we could use to help us find our dream home. We contacted her the next day and we decided that we would want to have her help us in this journey of purchasing our first home. Kelly connecte...

Tony is a great realtor. I was connected to him via Zillow and wasn’t ready at first, but he was helpful and respectful nonetheless. This is why we chose him once we were ready. We were looking in Willow Glen and he is very rooted in that area, so he knew the neighborhoods, schools, and charm well. He was always super responsive and came very prepared for our house viewings. I had a newborn when we were looking who came along at times and Tony was always very patient when we had to take care of the baby. There was one day (sans baby thankfully) that I wanted to look at as many houses as possible, so he scheduled 15 viewings in one day! His energy la...

We met Kelly at an Open House in December while starting our home search. Kelly’s great personality, knowledge of the property, and friendly style instantly put us at ease and made us feel confident. Because of our interaction, we ended up choosing the Brett Jennings Real Estate Experts team to help us buy our first home. Kelly was instrumental in pairing us with our agent, Amber, and also supported us through the whole process. Kelly has a bright career ahead and if you’re looking for an agent and team that will work hard to represent you, whether selling or buying, Kelly and everyone on the Brett Jennings team is your best choice.

First-time home buyers look no further! We were so fortunate to be connected with Amber through an open house. Responsive, thorough, patient, and supportive, Amber took the time to acquaint us with the market, walk us through the home-buying process, and ensure we were prepared to give us the best edge in this competitive landscape. With her expertise, strong reputation, and the support of the entire Brett Jennings Real Estate Experts team, we were able to craft a winning offer for the perfect home in the location we wanted.

When we were doing a search for our first home, we were very confused. When we wanted to put in an offer for a home, the realtor asked if we were sure, we weren’t. At this point, Tony was introduced to us by a close friend. When I first met Tony, the thing that struck me most was his friendly demeanor and his intention to strike a personal connection. He understood our requirements and made sure of the priorities. Instead of throwing a big list of properties, he presented us with a small set but well-matching homes and followed through with us to understand what worked and what did not work. That’s how we narrowed down the home we bought. He was dil...

We were referred to Brett Jennings by a good friend of ours. We had a meeting with Brett and he introduced us to Brad Garofalo, our realtor. Buying a home in Silicon Valley is scary, we’ve heard all kinds of stories on how hard and frustrating this process could be for buyers. I’m happy to say that we had none of that, thanks to Brad. He is fabulous! He knows the market, the realtor, the process, the things that could be wrong with a house and it could cost lots of money later. He is always available to show you homes, to answer your questions, to help you make the big decisions. In a market where more than buying a house you are bidding for one, he...

Sold a Single-family home in Blossom Valley, San Jose, CA. The day we interviewed Brett Jennings and his amazing team, was one of the best days of our lives. From day one they went into action on our behalf. Brett listened intently to every one of our wishes for the sale of our house, and for the home, we wished to own. We were handheld every step of the way. Every single question was answered immediately. All our fears were taken into consideration and vanished one by one as we proceeded on. Brett even helped guide us on the design of our fixer home. He was confident in his choices, so that made us confident as well. Brett runs his company like a v...

Tony really is an exceptional realtor. From the moment we met him through the entire process of our home sale, Tony has been very professional, friendly, and incredibly responsive. Tony was also very patient and understanding during home meetings and walkthroughs, as we have two young children running around during the process! Tony had a very open communication channel, even on weekends. The selling process was relatively smooth and we got more than we expected to get from our home sale (his team is very knowledgeable and informative about housing market trends and projections). My husband and I definitely recommend Tony and hope to work with him i...

We contacted Shafaq online and she was friendly and easy to talk to which we appreciated as first-time homebuyers with many questions. She answered them all and walked us through the process and timelines in a way that did not make it overwhelming. Shafaq connected us with lenders and was prompt in her communication with us, the seller agent, and the lender. Throughout the process, she offered feedback on what to expect and pointed out things to pay attention to during our walkthrough that we would’ve missed otherwise. Also appreciated her willingness to work around our schedule. Would highly recommend her to anyone in the home-buying process.

Kelly Ray, and all the teams she put us in contact with throughout our journey, made our home purchasing experience seamless. The unique stressors of searching for a home in the midst of a pandemic were put to rest by Kelly Ray. From the start, she was readily available to patiently answer any and all questions we had, at all hours of the day. She made a potentially confusing process feel comprehensible, and we never felt rushed into making a decision. In fact, Kelly constantly reminded us how important it was to take our time. Kelly was very conscientious of our parameters and wishlist for our home, and she was swift in reaching out to the realtor ...

Jose, thank you a ton for getting us our dream house in this competitive market. We started our home buying journey a couple of months back and you not only helped us buy our exact requirement but also spent a lot of time showing us houses that were not meeting our requirements exactly and had few things that matched our requirements to firm up our requirement. As against many others in the market, you never pushed us to change our requirements or budget. At a point in time, we almost lost hope and were ready to quit our search, you had gone that extra mile to search as per our requirement and lined up appointments. We had a strict budget, multiple ...

Olympia was fantastic to work with. She was able to sell our house in a community where other resale houses did not sell. She was professional and communicative throughout the whole process. She made frequent trips to our house to make sure it was always in prime showing condition. We ended up with several offers. Highly recommend!
