Bret Evans made selling my home a very positive experience from start to end. He is a true professional who is knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. He was always quick to respond to my questions and provided guidance about needed repairs & upgrades. As a result, I was able to get more than my asking price with multiple bids. If I could leave a 5+ star review I certainly would! I recommend Bret to anyone selling or buying a home.

Bret was a pleasure to work with. Excellent communication, incredibly fast response time to our many questions. The condo needed a lot of updating, Bret took on the project, and the results were astonishing. From the flooring to the light fixtures, the make over was fast & fabulous. The condo was also staged with exquisite furnishings. Brets knowledge of the market enabled us to sell at an extremely good price. I would highly recommend Bret to anyone buying or selling.

Bret was excellent in helping sell my sister's condo in Menlo Park! I, as trustee, though not living in the state of Calilfornia, benefitted greatly from Bret's knowledge of the process and the market. His communications skills are outstanding. I would highly recommend him to others!

Look no further for a fantastic realtor. Bret sold my mother's house for us and made an emotional task as easy and compassionate as possible. He took extra time to explain the process of selling and his communication with us was superb. Bret negotiated a price far above what we had anticipated with the sale closing without a hitch. I wish I had another house to sell because I have already found a special realtor for life. I can't say enough about the most positive experience Bret provided selling the home I grew up in.

Bret has been the property manager for my rental home for the past several years. I live about an hours drive away so his help is indispensable to me. He is thorough, knowledgeable and always quick to respond to any issues that may arise with the tenants or any questions that I may have. If repairs or maintenance is required Bret is always able to recommend the best tradespeople based on his experience over the years. He is very easy to work with and makes the moving in and moving out process with tenants seamless for all. He has gone above and beyond sometimes doing small repairs, purchasing appliances or just driving by the house to make sure all is OK. I give Bret my highest recommendation!

This was our second time using Bret to sell properties. First a condo in Redwood Shores, and now our primary residence and a rental condo. Bret is very knowledgeable about the market conditions and the other similar houses for sale in the area. Very helpful throughout the process and kept us informed every step of the process. Listens to our concerns and always worked to make sure we were comfortable and well informed.

Bret came highly recommended by a family member who had used his help selling their place a year ago. To ensure our home was prepared for the market, Bret helped identify areas on which to focus for value-added updates. Since we had moved out of the area prior to listing our home, he helped us with these updates by soliciting bids for the proposed work and overseeing the work to ensure it was done well and within a reasonably quick timeframe given current challenges in supply chain and labor. He even helped to personally replace a new shrub when it suddenly died while the home was on market and we were away. During our time working with Bret, market conditions changed quickly with the rapid rise in mortgage rates resulting in a less-favorable market for sellers. Although it was not fun to hear the news, Bret was honest about the market status while remaining supportive of our desired approach. The information he supplied kept us grounded and helped us arrive at a price that made the most sense in this challenging time. He gave us space when we didn't want to accept offers that weren't to our liking and at the same time provided feedback that ensured we didn't miss an opportunity with a buyer when it did come. Overall, Bret was an exceptional agent, going above and beyond to help us prepare our home and navigate a tough market, while ensuring that we got the best price possible for our home at the time.

I strongly recommend that anyone looking to buy or sell property in the Bay Area contact Bret Evans. Bret possesses every attribute we wanted in our real estate agent: responsive, hard working, knowledgeable, and efficient. Most importantly, you can trust Bret's advice. He makes no-nonsense, practical analyses of an ever-changing market and guided us to the right property at the right price. Bret also has a great team of professionals for interior/exterior repairs and renovations that make pre-sale, or post-purchase, work easy. We truly feel lucky to have worked with Bret and are certain you will feel the same.

Bret guided us through a challenging market to sell our house quickly. Within 2 weeks of signing with Bret, he had our property prepped, staged and listed. We never felt like we were at a disadvantage living in another state because Bret updated us regularly. He did a great job of explaining the process and the paperwork from start to finish. We highly recommend Bret Evans to anyone considering buying or selling their home.
