This has been a long over due feedback. This is the least I could do let everybody know how pleased I am with my experience with 'Optimal Homes'. So I am going to get down to a lot of details without making this review too long ;)When we first met Karan, he showed us 4 houses on a weekend. Through out the tours we explained to Karan what we liked and what we did not. We also explained how much we were looking to spend. Surprisingly, he does pay attention very well! Almost every single houses he has scheduled onwards were aligning with our taste/needs/budget. Below are some key points what Karan has to offer:v He is punctual.v He is very prompt in responding and taking actions when needed (probably the most important thing in real estate).v He is knowledgable. He could estimate what needs to be done before moving-in and what needs to be addressed eventually on the fly.Great attention to details.v He provides practical feedback. He would look into the potentials of a property and break it down how/why it could be beneficial. He also pays attention to the neighborhoods and the surroundings. This is where having an experienced local agent shines. v He is honest. There were a few times when we went to an open house with Karan, and he knew right away that its not the right one for us. He would point out all the issues and give his honest opinion. East of bay area could be tricky. Within a same city there are streets you want to avoid and there are streets with great prospects. Karan knows this area so well. He'll steer clear of those unwanted areas.v He takes it personally. He would be as excited as me if he could find a property for below the market price. Or if its a property with some added perks which are easily overlooked.v He is diligent. Scoring a good deal is not always easy. It requires extra hard work, more browsing and a lot patience. And one need to act promptly once it is found. Karan is always willing to go that extra mile to find a perfect match and act quickly when needed.v He is professional. He keeps communications on point. He keeps paperworks straight. Within a short period of time we found a place which we liked. We took Karan's advice and made the right offer. We got the deal!Karan also offers loan service which is optional. I was little skeptical about having him as both my buyer's agent and the loan officer. But we got an amazing rate from his company. Having the loan done from his company actually turned out to simplify the closing process. I had one less thing to worry about.Last but not least, Karan has an excellent team. Many thanks to Viviliya for connecting all the dots and for patiently dealing with all the boring stuffs in the back. They made the whole home buying process very simple and fun. Our best wishes for Karan and his team.

Karan has been a true delight to work with! My husband and I started looking for homes last December. When we first met Karan, we had no idea how much home we qualified for, on our first meeting he pulled out a financial calculator right then and crunched our numbers for us. And then he recommended us to a great loan officer! He has knowledge of both Real Estate and the Lending side, which was a huge plus for us!! On our first meeting he asked us all the right questions and really got to know our needs, he talked very less and listed to our every word. And then when he took us to home viewings, he never ever rushed us. He allowed us to experience the property. Always had snacks for us to eat, which we loved because my husband and I are real foodies! We decided to hold off on buying due to job changes but we will be back soon and Karan is our go to! If you are a First Time Buyer, Karan is your man!! He will really set things straight for you and clarify everything about the home buying process. Thank you Karan for being so genuine to us!! We are well informed buyers because of you!! P.S: That cafe you recommended was amazing. (Cafe 4 in Castro Valley)

I had moved here from Chicago for a job and needed to land a home within a month. We met Karan at the right time, he sat down with us and understood our needs fully. What I liked about him was his ability to communicate effectively, he listened to our needs attentively and relayed information to us promptly. During open home visits he was not pushy and allowed us to inspect homes without interfering. He was very flexible to our hectic schedule and was always willing to take us to open home tours. He stayed on top of the process the whole time, never leaving sight of our home preferences and timeline. And if there were ever issues, or just things he did not like about a home, he would let us know right away. We got an offer accepted within the month, it was very impressive in this super competitive market. Karan is a young and energetic guy who just gets the job done. He is very genuine and we felt very comfortable dealing with him. Karan knows the local market and also has great relationships with lenders. That was a big plus for us coming from another State!! One again thank you for all the hard work Karan!! It was truly a pleasure working with you!! You will always be our go to guy for our Real Estate needs!

Karan is very professional yet approachable and open minded. You can tell he knows what he's doing and isn't just all talk after the first conversation with him. He has various backgrounds, such as finance and numbers that make him a very well rounded and knowledgeable real estate agent. He not only was able to help me with finding a home but also explain to me the finance portion of it that a lender would usually do. During the whole process Karan was very respectful yet honest. He will tell you like it is but also provide the flexibility and understanding that as the buyer I may not be comfortable with all the recommendations. He will work with you to figure out the best approach and price where as the buyer I'm comfortable and as the agent he is maximizing the use of his knowledge in bidding. Karan was also quick to observe and identify my likes and dislikes when looking at homes. He also has a very efficient support staff, Olive that was super helpful and quick with paperwork. Karan is a go getter and is clear headed to know what steps he's taking in the negotiation process and will share with you his plans while looking out for you, as the buyer. He is always busy but don't let that be a barrier because he will get back to you and make time for you no matter how busy or late into the night to ensure you are ok with paperwork and the process or understanding the next steps.Honestly, he was great to work with. Knowledgeable, consistent, and understanding. While we looked at many places he consistently reassured me that we would find something and not to rush. I really liked that he went with the flow and pace I was going and didn't push for a quick sell. He even kept in contact after closing to ensure I was set. I can't thank him enough for his honest, consistency, and wealth of knowledge. I was surprised that I got the home but know that it was in karans work as he spent time building rapport with the other agent and keeping consistent communication in terms etc. Thank you!
