Corinne is *the best* agent I could have ever asked for. As a first time homeowner that knew nothing about buying or caring for a house, I feel truly blessed to have found Corinne to represent me through the buying process. She is patient, a fierce advocate, and acts with the utmost integrity. She happily showed any property I was even remotely interested in, inspecting every single house meticulously for defects or signs of damage. During the search, Corinne was perceptive enough to understand not only what I wanted in a first home (including wants I didnt even verbalize!), but also what I could afford and what I should be willing to pay for the best value. I will never forget how Corinne dissuaded me from purchasing at least three of the properties we toured because they were not worth the price, in subpar locations, in poor condition, etc. because she would not have advised her own friend or family member to have done so. Going through the home search process with Corinne was like doing so with a long time friend or close family member who wants to make sure you are happy, but one who has tons of experience in home buying. She was always honest and clearly always looking out for my best interests. It was also such a relief to buy my first home with someone like Corinne who *really* knew what she is doing and always had the patience to go the extra mile. During the escrow process, she called and met with multiple contractors, carpenters, landscapers, inspectors, you name it in her network to negotiate the best prices for the best work. She even *crawled under the house herself* with a contractor to inspect the foundation and discuss a fair price for dry rot repair. You truly cannot make these things up! Because she has so much experience with the local market, she was always one step ahead and never without a plan during the negotiation process. Yet somehow Corinne was always attentive to my comfort level and keenly aware of my risk tolerance with every move we made before closing. The home buying process is long and can be stressful, so I suggest having Corinne - with her knowledge, optimism, and good sense of humor - in your corner and it will feel like a breeze!

Many of our friends and family are surprised that we have aEURoea realtoraEUR?, but Corinne Petit is absolutely one of those professionals you come back to time and time again. We enjoyed working with Corinne so much that, years after she helped us purchase our first home, we asked her to help us sell as well. Despite the challenging market, Corinne navigated us through the sale of our home, a condominium with high monthly HOA dues and an unusual flood insurance situation. Corinne has always been very communicative, responding to emails, texts, and calls in a timely fashion, oftentimes sooner than we expected! She kept track of the huge number of todos that selling entails and made the process straightforward and easy for us. Reading disclosure packets is a chore and while you should always read the packets yourself, Corinnes sharp and experienced eye helped direct our attention to the most relevant parts. When you work with Corinne, you work with her team of experts. They helped in so many ways, from evaluating where we could remodel to improve our homes value to staging and photography. We particularly appreciated Corinne's strong ethical standards for her team as well. We had confidence that everyone Corinne worked with was someone we'd be happy to work with. We cant recommend working with Corinne enough and look forward to working with her when we are in the market our next home.

I strongly recommend Kira Halpern. She helped me sell my mother's house in the Spring and Summer of 2024. She was organized, had comprehensive area knowledge, made clear recommendations and presented alternatives with pros and cons for various choices, and was professional and communicative the entire time. If I were to buy or sell a house again I would absolutely work with Kira again.

Kira Halpern is a phenomenal real estate partner who was instrumental in selling a home for me while I was living in another geographical location. As the point person, Kira proactively and effectively managed all the necessary details. Kira went above and beyond, and I was extremely pleased in working with her. I highly recommend Kira.

We interviewed 3 real estate agents to sell our family home of 70 years and Kira Halpern was by far the most prepared and offered the widest range of services (which she delivered!). Kira listens and is incredibly detailed oriented and easy work with. Kira has many needed resources at her fingertips that she coordinated for us, such as: photo/videographer; professional home inspectors; termite inspectors, handy person; gardener; painters; hardwood floor refinishers; stagers; a licensed plumber to quickly deal with new EBMUD sewer requirement; cleaning people; roofers; electricians; and many other services that were needed to pull our house together for sale. We were able to quickly pull our house together to be sale ready thanks to Kira. It never looked so good! She also knows ins and outs of our local market incredibly well which enabled her to help us establish an effective sales strategy as well as deal the many issues presented by the city, county and utilities. Kira was always available to quickly return our texts and phone calls and keep us up with progress on the prep and sale. She helped bring in offers and think through that not so easy process. Bottom line: we highly recommend Kira and would definitely user her services again.
