This is a long overdue review for our realtor, Simon Black.Our friends introduced us to Simon at the beginning of our house hunt in early 2021. We had talked to a few realtors and after our 1st meeting with Simon, we knew he was the person we wanted to work with during the craziest housing market in history. We were lucky enough to work with Simon for about 6-7 months, more than half of which we were actually out of state. When youre looking to purchase a house remotely, you know youre going to need someone who is an excellent communicator, diligent, competent and reliable. Simon always puts your best interest first. He is like a machine learning algorithm who works to understand what you like, what you dont like and continues to refine his searches tailored to your preferences. Throughout and even after the closing process, Simon would continue to check in and send recommendations our way (such as contractors, cleaners, etc). Simon has an extensive network of professionals including the best loan agents in the industry and saved us the trouble of having to find one ourselves (and the rates were very competitive during that time). We were also able to work with one of his home networking/security referrals who was super professional and had great quality of work (thanks Simon!!).Needless to say, Simon sets the bar high for realtors -- he should be the normal and not the exception. We are so grateful to have Simon as part of our house search and would recommend him in a heartbeat! You wont regret it :)

We worked with Simon starting in April 2020 (during the middle of the COVID19 shutdown) to search for a new home in the Bay Area, and it was a true pleasure. We felt very fortunate to have found such a knowledgeable, effective, attentive, and thoughtful agent. Even during the constantly-changing circumstances caused by COVID, Simon was always on top of things. He always seemed to be at least three steps ahead, ready to guide us through our first attempt at navigating the Bay Area housing market. Starting with our initial (virtual) meeting, Simon graciously and thoroughly answered all our questions - about neighborhoods, process, advice, etc. During each step along the way, he was readily available, extremely quick to respond (including on nights and weekends), and always prepared. He also generously offered excellent recommendations and personal connections to many others, including lenders and several contractors. Overall, we had an exceptionally positive and smooth house-hunting and buying experience, which we believe was in large part due to Simon's skill, professionalism, and hard work. On top of everything else, Simon is kind and genuine, and brings a personal touch to his work and interactions. While the process of buying a home can be both daunting and stressful, working with Simon helped to make it a real joy.

Simon is an excellent real estate agent. When we started our search, we were living in southern California, and Simon agreed to help us back in February. Then Covid-19 came along and we couldn't really proceed with the search until fall. But all during spring and summer, Simon sent us listings and kept us informed through personal emails. Once we felt ready to get serious, Simon arranged zoom tours, answered our many questions, and seemed to know everything about the neighborhoods and houses we were interested in. His advice was spot on when it came to decisions about offers. Although we were not first-time home buyers, we often felt like we were, and we relied on his guidance every step of the way. It was truly a pleasure to work with him. Now we have closed on a lovely home in the Oakland hills and it is all due to Simon's exceptional help and support.
