Go no further. Jeff is your guy! He really cares, and wants to see you get a place that really works for you. The seller accepted my offer, which was 20,000. less because of Jeff. Why? The seller's agent respected and trusted Jeff to stream line the closing process quickly, professionally and with a top notch team of lender, title people etc. Jeff also suggested I write a letter to the seller, which also helped. Jeff cares, has high integrity and is responsive. His vast experience saves money in inspections, etc.. He can accurately assess strengths and weaknesses of a property. He is a an excellent creative negotiator who offered less money that I was willing to spend. He wants to see you get into a property that feels right and works for your aesthetics and sensibilities, beyond just checking all the boxes. Somehow, I was able to buy a dream home at a reasonable, "beer budget" price. You'll want Jeff representing you in all your transactions. I am most grateful for Jeff!

If you're looking for a real estate agent, especially as a first time home buyer, I strongly caution against working with Mr. Jeff Weissman.My husband and I worked with Jeff as first time home buyers and he definitely made the process stressful. His personality came off as aggressive, and I didn't get a sense that he had our best interests in mind. He was pushy and willing to do whatever it takes to get the sales, even if it meant overpaying or settling for a house that isn't right for you. It was difficult for us to trust Jeff.My husband and I saw a house in a city we have never been to before. Jeff was adamant that we put in an offer the same day, even though we didn't like the location and we expressed our concerns to him. Instead, he pulled out all his sales tactics and tried to convince us that this house was the one for us and we won't be able to find anything better. Due to another investment opportunity at the time, our cash reserve was tight, so Jeff even suggested we reached out to our family to borrow money for the deposit. We were in no shape to put in an offer for that house, yet Jeff was pushing for us to sign the offer letter. That should have been our first red flag.We convinced ourselves to continue working with Jeff longer than we should have because he is a top producer. However, being a top producer means Jeff is extremely busy. He shows little interest in trying to help us navigate the home buying process. Jeff has never gone over a house disclosure with us nor has he ever explain the offer letters we needed to sign. He prefers emailing a bunch of attachments and asking us to return the signed documents to him as soon as possible. Since he has been doing this for so long, I got the sense that he forgot how scary the home buying process can be for first time home buyers. He might see it as just another transaction, but as a buyer, it is most likely the biggest purchase I will ever make in my life. In the end, my husband and I decided to go with another real estate agent. It is night and day working with Jeff and our new agent. Trying to buy a house in the competitive Bay Area market generally means having to settle for a house that doesn't meet all your requirements. Fortunately, that doesn't apply to choosing a real estate agent. Don't settle for just any real estate agent. Don't settle for Jeff Weissman.
