Testimonials
“Chad helped us purchase a home in the Bay Area, which is a feat by itself, but throughout he has been patient, super responsive and always thinking about our best interest. A few offers on homes were unsuccessful and he was there being the steady hand, reassuring us and keeping our emotional sanity intact. Our transaction had more complexities than most but Chad was successful in getting it done. Thank you, Chad! **highly recommend**”
“Every now and then we come across people who truly are dedicated to their work. They are so driven to give it their best, so committed that they think about it day and night, so passionate about it that their work becomes part of their lives. Chad is one such person, his work ethic and passion is outstanding. Chad is the best Realtor anyone can find! We met Chad about three months ago when we started looking for a home in the crazy Bay Area’s housing market. In the very first meeting itself we knew we are working with a great Realtor. He earned our trust when he asked us to take time and not to rush. He was always honest in his thoughts even when sometimes we were willing to ignore it in our initial home buying excitement.”
“I don’t think I can say enough good things about Chad. We were so blessed to have him as our agent. I honestly feel we would not be homeowners today if it were not for him. He was extremely knowledgeable about the market, and was very accommodating to our wants and willingness to pay. We never felt pressured to increase our budget, and Chad provided us with strategies to help our offer stand out. I am confident that Chad’s advice was a big reason why our very first offer was accepted. Throughout the whole search process through closing, Chad was extremely responsive at all hours of the day. He checked in often throughout the entire process, and it felt more like working with a friend than anything else.”
“Chad is absolutely the best. He is always extremely responsive and diligent about following up in requests, even when he is out of town or it is later at night. I wouldn’t work with anyone else for all my real estate needs.”
“We feel that we were extremely lucky to cross paths with Chad, and for him to help us with our quest for a home. We could not have asked for anybody better. He is such a nice man, kind, caring, compassionate and all other adjectives necessary to keep us sane in this crazy market. He knows his stuff – in fact he makes it his business to know as much as he can about every location in the bay area, good or bad. He can answer any question that we posed to him. He consistently treated us with respect and was never pushy. We put in several offers, and he consistently told us to offer what we were comfortable offering, and that if it was causing us any concerns, then we should probably not do it. We never felt hassled.”
“Sara and Chad did an excellent job, from start to finish! We found that they were both very knowledgeable and they always applied their expertise. They helped us a lot to get the property prepped for sale. They always kept us updated throughout the entire process. There was a couple of hick ups due to the buyer, but they both sprang into action to rectify the situation and had contingency plans. I like how they were with us throughout the whole process. Sara, Chad, and the whole team were very professional and first class! We could not be happier and definitely recommend them!”
“Chad was very helpful in the entire process of home buying. When we first met he gave us a very detailed view of the entire process and also explained the pitfall that some people fall into at times. When we started touring his team (Esp Dale Silveria) was amazing. We toured the most with Dale, he was very detail oriented and always spent as much time as we needed to get a feel for the home and find out if it was a good fit or not. We can’t thank Dale enough for bearing with us for week after week after week. Chad was very prompt in responses to our queries regarding comps and price estimates even though we didnot bid on every home we enquired about, On the day of writing offer, he put aside everything he had on his calendar and made time for us.”
“Chad has been a great agent to work with. He has been extremely well responsive and very helpful during the whole home buying process. He is one of those most sincere and honest agents who would be able to help you get a home in this crazy Bay Area market. He is well informed and has good knowledge on what to look out in the homes. He is very enthusiastic and has a pretty good relationship with other real estate agents in Bay Area.”
“I am really glad that I insisted to work with him (based on online reviews). Chad was extremely patient and helpful throughout the process, which could be overwhelming for the first time buyers. He is prompt in answering queries, reviewing disclosures and putting up offers, with turn-around time of few minutes. I really liked his strategy, especially in this crazy market and close follow-ups with listing agents before and after offer deadlines. I was amazed with his predictions for offer prices and how close they were, every single time. He made this entire process seem much easier than expected. I would highly recommend (can’t stress enough) to work with Chad.”
“Chad is the best! He helped us find the house of our dreams and worked with us as a partner. He never pushed us to buy a property we weren’t entirely convinced of, and went above and beyond what is expected of a realtor. I’m glad I worked with Chad, and I strongly recommend him to anyone looking to buy a house in the crazy Bay Area real estate market.”
“We would highly, highly recommend Chad as you buyer’s agent. He was spectacular in every way during the entire process. We went through a very quick process over the winter holidays, and having Chad in our corner made buying our home a reality. We cannot say enough nice things about our experience working with Chad. He guided us through the entire process with patience, amazing recommendations, extremely experienced contacts, unbelievably fast responsiveness, and vast experience that helped with each of our questions and decisions. There were so many moving parts, especially with how quickly our process went, but through it all he was always able to distill what was most important and has focused key priorities. He was reassuring, calm, objective, helpful, and reliable 100% of the time.”
“Chad and his team are great, exceeded our high expectations! Very highly recommend, all was done professional, fast, clear.”
“We are fortunate to have met Chad in our home buying process. Chad was really patient during the whole process and he guided us in each and every step. I don’t think anyone can match Chad’s response time. He was really quick and gave us comprehensive report for each house we requested info for. He understood the market conditions at the time. Did not try to hype the property nor force us at any step. He also kept us up to date, punctual with return calls, texts and emails along with pesky document deadlines. A property realist and true professional. I would highly recommend Chad for home buying process.”
“We bought our first home with Chad and were extremely pleased with the service he provided. He went out of his way to help us understand the process of home buying and gave insightful recommendations during our search. Chad worked in our best financial interest and helped us put a solid offer. His warm personality along with his calm and positive demeanor made it even more of a pleasure to work with him. We highly recommend Chad and thank him for his assistance in purchasing our first home.”
“It was great working with Kristen. She was extremely helpful every step of the way and helped ensure that we received the maximum value for our home. I’d strongly recommend Kristen’s services to anyone who is looing for a friendly, no-hassle selling experience!”

“Chad was exceptional to work with. He was very helpful in every step of the way in our process. He was diligent with every detail of our home buying process. We made a few offers with Chad and he would always give his honest advice by studying all the disclosures and helping us throughout the bidding process. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to work with for buying out first home.”
“Chad was incredible. We began looking in 2014 while we were living in LA. He would make arrangements to meet us for home tours when we visited the area. Once we relocated up here permanently, he made sure to be at every home tour. When we finally decided on a home, he came to each meeting we had with the builder to sign papers, do walk-throughs, and do the key exchange. Chad is very knowledgeable and very honest. He will let you know if there was a better deal if he thinks a home is overpriced or requires too much work for the location. He definitely wants what is best for the buyer and will put in a lot of work to help you find the best home for you. He is also very responsive.”
“We had the best realtor relationship with Chad. We’ve done many real estate transactions with different realtors and Chad takes first place. He was so fast and responsive, it was like a tennis game. We hit a volley and he hit right back. Real estate purchasing and selling is tough. It’s emotional, thrilling, heartbreaking. Chad is the human being to make the whole process easier for you. He advised us, made the negotiations transparent and called consultants for us. His conscientiousness and perseverance saved a deal that would otherwise have been killed by the unresponsiveness of the seller’s agent.”
“Chad was so great to work with. He was on top of everything and went the extra mile to get the transaction done as quickly as possible. To that end, the house was able to close almost a week earlier than planned. Highly recommend Chad for his professionalism and incredibly personable nature.”
“As a first time homebuyer, buying a home in the Bay Area was something we believed to be a very daunting task but Chad and his team did an absolute fabulous job in making us feel comfortable throughout the process. His insights on each home we viewed were valuable which greatly helped us judge the right offer price to put on the home. Chad was always on top of things during the buying process and proactively reached out to our lender, selling agent and even our escrow officer to make sure things were moving smoothly. He is an extremely trustworthy agent and exhibits his passion in the real estate field through very high quality work. Chad deserves more than 5 stars and we would like to strongly recommend you to choose Chad as your buyer’s agent.”
“Better service? Chad IS the better service! Chad Eng is absolutely great, professional, reliable, patient, detailed, efficient, dedicated, friendly and overall a wise teacher of the process for anyone who is looking to purchase their first home. If we had to describe Chad’s expertise and service in two words: first class. Thanks Chad for working with us these few months and becoming a friend.”
“It was a pleasure to work with Chad. He was always very responsive and proactive during the whole engagement. The transaction went very smoothly because of him.”
“He is a very good agent! It was very nice to work with Chad! He is friendly and knowledgeable. Thanks!”
“Very responsive, works all hours it seems to provide fast response.”
“Chad was fantastic !! Our home buying process was quite a story to start with, but Chad definitely helped us sail through the process comfortably ! We would highly recommend Chad to anyone willing to buy a house. Chad is available almost anytime, and is always a text/message away. We appreciate his guidance and are thankful to him for helping us buy our house.”
“Kristen is absolutely awesome. This is the second house she has sold for me and I cannot say enough good things about her. She is on top of everything, takes all the stress out of selling a house, and is just a complete pleasure to work with. I would without reservation recommend Kristen!”
“Chad exceeded all expectations we had for a real estate agent. In fact, we felt that he was more a close friend than an agent, always having our best interests at heart. When we began the search, he energetically showed us many properties and at each house, meticulously did his due diligence and pointed out issues. Once we found our location, he suggested an offer amount that was attractive to the seller and reasonable for us. The night of the offer, he worked all through the night to make sure our documentation was in order. And once we got our offer, he continued to support us, educating us on contingencies and coordinating with HOA and banks. With his attentive nature, pleasing manners and knowledge. We recommend him enthusiastically.”
“Chad is an excellent realtor. We were first-time-home-buyers; and in this crazy sellers Bay Area market, an excellent buyers-realtor such as Chad is an absolute must. Right from the time a home hits the market, the realtors work starts. And Chad was great in communicating with the listing agents; getting and reviewing the disclosures; working on comps; and letting us know his opinion about the property; and expected offer price. He is very much aware and connected in all San Jose, and nearby cities such as Santa Clara, Sunnyvale, Milpitas etc. Once our offer was accepted, Chad was again there to help us with any questions during the contract process; and until closing. Needless to say, I would recommend him without any reservation.”
“After developing a good sense of market conditions, came time to hit the field. People told us anecdotal stories about why we should go with a traditional agency. Based on our past experience with pushy traditional agents that work on commission, we decided to skip that route. We got in touch with Chad. In the first phone conversation, he explained the home buying process in detail. It was clear that he has tremendous knowledge. On the first home tour, we realized that he has a good eye for spotting things at properties that you would expect from a seasoned agent. His cheerful personality and enthusiasm makes it very comfortable to work with him.”
“Chad helped us out with the whole process of buying. From setting up tours to sending us disclosures and comps. Giving us pros and cons of each area the houses were in. Chad worked well with the listing agent too to coordinate a bunch of buyers accesses. He was very patient with our requests and got back to us immediately. And finally we made a good offer which got us the house! We couldn’t thank him enough!”
“Chad is amazing! He is very patient, polite and professional from start to finish. We always felt that Chad was on our side, protecting our interests and he always gave his honest opinion on everything. Our experience was absolutely fantastic!”
“Chad was great throughout the entire process. Highly recommend him.”
“Chad is on top of customer service. He is responsive and has good market insights. We feel strongly about what we like and his approach to helping us finding a home is relaxed, supportive, and not pushy. We enjoyed our experience working with Chad and his team.”
“Chad and his associates went above or beyond!! Cannot imagine any better service he could have done (with the exception of having a crystal ball or psychic powers to know what competing offers would be, but I don’t know of any realtors who have that!) We lost on 4 offers before finally getting one accepted, and having Chad on our side was invaluable through the long process. He and his team even continued to support us after our offer was accepted as we were preparing to find contractors to do a renovation right away. Would recommend for anyone in this competitive area.”
“We can’t be any happier with Chad on this purchase! Chad is extremely polite, calm and patient. He is knowledgeable, informative and responsive, yet at the same time leaves sufficient space and time for us to think and re-think. In a stressful market condition like this, working with Chad made it least stressful. Highly recommend Chad to those in the market.”
“Chad is very proactive. If he did not follow up with me 2 months after we first met, he may not be my agent. He is also very professional and providing insights of the areas I am interested in or I am not familiar with. He is very responsive. I can say 99% of my emails can be responded within 1 hour with thorough information. Basically I trust him. I feel that he is taking care of us and value us as a client. I will for sure recommend him to my friend who is interested in buying or selling homes.”
“Chad has been given us a lot of great advice. I have worked with at least 5 agents previously. Chad is the best so far. In this market, you need an agent who is on your side and support you throughout the process, not just someone pushes you to buy so that they can close the deal and move on to the next client. Chad is very responsive!!! That’s why we got our house. He has done such a great job.”
“Chad is an amazing agent! He simplified the house-buying process for us by a lot. He was always on top of the procedure and kept us looped in. At the peak of our hunt (submitting bid and hearing back on the results), he would give us updates multiple times in a single day! He calmed our nerves at several crucial junctures and was very helpful in making some choices about the house, for example, lease-options, insurance, lenders, etc. He also orchestrated some interactions between the lenders and the title company. Overall, Chad made our house-buying process so much easier and as a result we were able to get a house in our first bid attempt with very little hassle. Thanks :)”
“I have nothing but INCREDIBLE things to say about Chad – Chad went ABOVE AND BEYOND for us. As first time homeowners, he made us feel incredibly well supported, helped us every step of the way, made sure everything went smoothly so that we could close on a very tight schedule, answered every little inane question I could think of, and was extremely communicative and in touch with us. He was very thoughtful in his approach, and gave us very personal advice catered to our needs. Never did we feel forced or pressured, or that he was selling us into doing something we weren’t sure about.”
“Extremely happy we were able to work with Kristen. I believe she is the main reason it sold! When we decided to go with Redfin we did not know what to expect. The entire experience was better than any individual agent we have had in the past.”
“Chad was Fantastic! We had a great experience in buying our home and we made it in our first attempt. Chad is very friendly, his responses are super quick and he ensures all the procedures are followed on time, in a peaceful manner. Would definitely recommend to my friends.”
“Kristen was outstanding! She was very helpful throughout the process, from getting our home ready and priced, to prepping it for sale and dealing with the potential buyers and ultimate sale. She made everything really easy and pain free for us. Would definitely recommend!”
“Have worked with Chad on two transactions now. He is extremely responsive and very diligent in following up on status with lenders and other agents. Highly recommend!! Chad’s the best.”
“Very responsive and quick to answer all our questions and very patient with us.”
“Chad is really wonderful and has great knowledge of the real estate in South San Jose area where I was looking to get a home. He was always available day and night helping to answer queries and even helped us save 5k when the final negotiations were taking place. He went above and beyond in helping out for home loans and give suggestions for home improvements. You can simply say he is a complete package in your search for home. Would love to recommend Chad to my friends.”
“Chad is the best. Always very responsive, courteous, and extremely knowledgeable. He is my go to guy!”
“Chad was amazing to work with and he answered all the question in prompt manner. I have not seen this kind of due diligence and promptness from anyone whom I have worked with previously.”
“Chad was excellent. Always answering calls when needed. Prompt and on-top of responses to the listing agent, as well as relaying any data needed. He was excellent at being fully transparent about times he would not be available, so there was no confusion. One of the best realtor experience I have had to date. Would work with Chad again in a heart beat.”
“Working with Kristen to sell my house was a joy and phenomenal experience. Kristen is very professional, extremely knowledgeable, and made the whole selling process painless and without any problems. And, we sold the house above the listing price. I definitely recommend Kristen!”
“We loved working with Chad! He is always highly attentive, energized and positive. We feel lucky to have worked with him on our house hunting.”
“Chad is a very amazing agent. This is our third time purchasing a home and of all the agents we had, he is the best one. Chad is very well researched. He is so knowledgeable of the area. His insights are sooooo helpful. He provides a very detailed summary of the disclosures making sure we didn’t miss anything important and major problems about the house. He works so hard calling the other agents and connects very well with them to get all the information we need. He responds SUPER DUPER FAST even in the middle of the night and on the weekends. He is so passionate about his work. Very dedicated, friendly, he never gives up. He is a very honest person and you can feel that he really cares about his clients. He helped us get our dream house with a limited budget we have.”
“Kristen and Connie were awesome to work with! We are so happy with how everything turned out for our house and the sale. We are grateful for an awesome team. Thank you!”
“Chad went above and beyond in every way that we can think of. We had been searching for a new home in the Bay Area with him as our agent for almost a year, writing 7 offers in the process. Since we were based on the East Coast, visiting properties would have been a logistical challenge and the time difference could have made communications difficult. Instead, we found no such issues — Chad went to (many) properties on our behalf to FaceTime us from there. He was incredibly responsive to emails and texts; we would routinely get immediate responses as late as midnight Pacific Time! Over the many properties we considered, he developed a great understanding of what we were looking for and, with his deep experience, advised us accordingly.”
