In June 2017, I moved from Piedmont to Texas. I turned my house over to Julie and Jill Shortley and drove off to Dallas. They did a beautiful job of making the house and cottage aEURoemarket attractiveaEUR?. The house was in contract within 2 weeks and closed on time. I was thrilled with the results that their hard work had generated. I highly recommend Julie and Jill. They knowthe market, are up front and honest and stayed in communication with me through the process.

Julie was a tremendous help to us, when as renters in Piedmont our landlord went into foreclosure with the bank. Julie called me regularly to check in and inform me of what was going on with the bank, and advised us as to our rights. In fact, she was so knowledgeable about the situation that when it finally sold, long after we had moved out, she represented the buyer! She was able to hang in there and ride through the very bumpy short sale and that lovely house found a great family! Fortunately for us, and in no small part due to Julie's diligence we were able to get out long before things got really complicated!

Julie is just the best. We are so lucky to have her as our agent. She knows the area so well, being a local herself, and she has been so patient with us and taught us so much about the market and home-buying. We love her!

I met Julie when I was looking for our first Piedmont house. We were working with another agent, but I kept bumping into Julie. We hd been looking in a Piedmont forever, and I mean forever, but couldn't find that combination of house and price our taste ( and my ego) demanded. One day she suggested I look at an open house with my realtor that I just knew didn't fit my bill. I resisted because it was outside of where I was concentrating, and because it's style was not what I wanted. But for the next several weeks she kept asking me at open houses whether we had gone up, and finally I relented. Long story short, it was love at first sight - the house of my dreams. We bought with our realtor, but I am forever indebted to Julie's insight, her selfless advice ( knowing we were working with someone else) and her ever present and unerring smile. We bought another house from her a year later as an investment, but still her pick for our dream house remains our home. We love the house, the street and our neighbors. Thanks Julie!

Julie managed the sale of our home in Oakland from start to finish -- all while we were thousands of miles away! She put us in contact with all the best local resources, from staging companies to landscapers and helped insure we maximized the value of our home in a very challenging market. Our only regret is we didn't stay in the Bay Area long enough to work with Julie on the purchase of another home! What a fabulous realtor and clearly one of the best the Bay Area has to offer.

Julie Gardner was instrumental in having our Piedmont home beautifully staged inside and out, photographed, up on the Grubb Co. website, and on the market in just 2.5 weeks' time. Dozens of her freshly baked chocolate chip cookies were gone in the first hour of a extremely well-attended Open House. Our home was under contract 8 days later and closed in six weeks. She's responsive and thoroughly understands the Piedmont market. It was a pleasure to work with her every step of the way.

My husband and I are long time home owners in San Francisco but dream of moving to a bigger/brighter home with a yard in the East Bay. We feel extremely lucky to have found Julie Gardner at Grubb Co. Not only is she an expert in the field, but she is determined to get you the home that is RIGHT for you. I will not lie, we are very picky. We have a particular house in mind, it has a flat yard, a good walk score, good schools at a fantastic price! Julie has found us many to look at - and her patience along with her tireless efforts to educate us on the market are much appreciated. We expect to find the house of our dreams with Julie's help - and with Julie, we will also enjoy the process.

Julie is not only hard working she also delivers amazing results! She helped me find my dream home, worked miracles in the negotiation process to help me win against a handful of competitive bids and supported me when my bank 'acted up' during final purchase processing. Add a great attitude to that and you have THE agent to work with. My next move, I'll call Julie again!!
