About Clara

Clara has been an amazing agent. She has helped me sell multiple properties, all for a far higher price than I could’ve imagined. She’s also helped me buy property on a number of occasions - helped pick the right location and price. In both buying and selling, she’s made the process seamless and easy. Anyone not working with her is making a mistake.

Clara is the best agent one can have. She’s detailed oriented, listens carefully and cares so much she knows exactly what we were looking for: our likes and preferences, something within our budget, and what we needed for our growing family! She also communicates well and clearly. From the time we met her 10 years ago, she’s helped us with buying our first home, renting it out, finding a rental, selling our first home to now, finding our next home! She has almost 20 years of experience and expertise, with a team of professionals, whether you need staging, repairs, or even connections to a lender. Clara knows what shes doing and she is just awesome. ...

Clara was incredibly helpful and available as our agent, working tirelessly around our busy work and family schedules to meet for discussions and document reviews. Her knowledge of the real estate market was invaluable to us, and she helped us to refine our preferences, identify and appreciate different aspects of property candidates until we found the ideal home within our budget. In the end, it appears that her negotiation and personal connection with the selling agent led to our offer being favorably considered (at least in our view) and accepted over competing ones, which led to us successfully closing on our new home! She also went above and be...

Clara is an amazing realtor! My wife and I were first-time home buyers, and Clara smoothly guided us through the home buying process. Clara met with us to understand what we were looking for and then diligently sent us listing that matched the profile we targeted (and listing that were just outside our parameters to help us understand other opportunities). Then Clara went to open houses with us and taught us all the details to be on the look out for. We appreciated her experience in screening homes and walking through homes. During the bidding process, Clara prepared and helped us with all the necessary paperwork, making the process more exciting th...

Clara helped my wife and I buy our first house in San Jose. We could not have made this purchase without Clara's expertise and assistance. She took the time to educate us about every step of the process and every piece of paper that we signed. She made sure to understand our needs as buyers. She took our evening phone calls and toured many open houses with us. I absolutely recommend Clara, and I hope to work with her again!

Clara is top tier at every step of the journey. Right off the bat, Clara provided deep insight into the state of the market in an unpredictable time. After providing my initial set of requirements, Clara provided a consistent flow of new and accurate listings to check out. She was always quick to tour and flexible on the times to make sure we never missed a deadline. During these tours, Clara was knowledgeable on what was and wasn’t important to look out for and provided helpful breakdowns of costs required for certain changes and repairs. During the offer stage, Clara’s experience and connections really shined at putting together the right offer. C...

Clara's assistance in selling our San Jose property while we were distant from the town was truly invaluable. My wife and I were amazed by her dedication and the care she invested in every step of the process. Initially, we contemplated renting out the property due to uncertainty about the market. Upon seeking Clara's advice, she provided insightful data points that helped us confidently decide to sell. As first-time sellers, we lacked experience in the process, but Clara seamlessly guided us through every aspect. From arranging repairs and remodeling to staging and photography, she handled it all with utmost professionalism and efficiency. Having p...

Under a tight deadline to sell a rental home in a 1031 exchange, a friend's realtor recommended Clara Lee. We found Clara to be very knowledgeable about the Lakewood Village area of Sunnyvale and very familiar with homes similar to ours. Upon seeing the house, she quickly determined what could be done to make each room shine. We were amazed at the consumate team of contractors that she brought in who, in less than 1 month, repaired, remodeled, repainted, resurfaced, cleaned, cleared, landscaped and beautifully staged the home on the inside and outside. Clara was amazing at keeping everything moving smoothly and kept us informed about the progress. S...

We had the pleasure of working with Clara when buying our home and she was simply amazing. From the start, we weren’t sure where we wanted to buy in the Bay Area, so she kindly set up a full-day tour, showing us homes across the Peninsula, South Bay, and East Bay. Her warmth, patience, and professionalism made the whole experience enjoyable, and she took the time to explain each property in detail, as well as share her research on the neighborhoods. Clara was incredibly thorough, walking us through every part of the contract and offering thoughtful suggestions that made all the difference. She answered every question we had with care and made sure w...

Clara won me over with her sharp analysis of the recent property sales in my neighborhood. I was looking for a knowledgeable and skilled real estate professional to handle my listing, and I couldn't be happier that we connected. Her thoughtful, timely updates kept me informed every step of the way, and the extra touches and attention to detail made my condo stand out in the market. I highly recommend Clara to anyone looking for an expert who truly cares!

Clara helped us buy our first home. We came in not knowing anything, but Clara made the buying experience so clear, smooth, and fast. She listened very well to our description of the kind of house we were looking for, and during our first meeting, already recommended a listing that we ended up absolutely falling in love with and buying. We were very impressed by how tirelessly she worked all day every day, even having weekend and late night meetings with us to meet the tight timelines to submit the offer and close the deal. She gave us lots of good advice on how to negotiate well and care for the house, and she also gave us excellent referrals to he...

Clara was an absolute godsend. I can't imagine doing a house transaction without her by my side now. She is incredibly caring, patient, thoughtful, delightful, and very diligent. I was told it's rare to find agents who truly look out for your best interest, but Clara is that rare diamond. She went above and beyond in several dimensions, from actively sourcing houses to see despite an incredibly long list of criteria, replacing me as a stand-in for some inspections when I couldn't attend during work hours, conducting interviews to help me source the best person for a variety of jobs, spending hours on calls or in person late into the night to educate...

We just closed our dream house with Clara in the super competitive Bay Area market. She is highly competent and experienced - and well, she got the job done, after our 3 years of home search before we met her. She also showed her outstanding professionalism with her commitment to us. She did absolutely everything needed to ensure that our deal was won and then closed smoothly.

We had a great experience working with Clara Lee, and were able to get the first house we put an offer in on. We chose to work with Clara based on a realtor’s recommendation and our initial conversation with her. We had interviewed about six other realtors. Clara stands out to us as someone extremely dedicated to her work. She always followed up, we never had to remind her to do something, and when it came time to fill out forms, she didn’t make a mistake. She is kind, calm, professional, and trustworthy. Her strategy was spot-on. When we saw the house we really wanted, she encouraged us to see it sooner rather than later. If we hadn’t moved so quic...

Clara is special because she actually cares about helping her clients find the home that suits them. That's her #1 priority over maximizing profit (which can be said for most agents out there)! For example, we were looking at homes with huge lot sizes, and Clara sincerely told us that based on my personality (she knows me really well), I would be overwhelmed by huge lots, and that was so true! She went out of her way to help us make a pre-emptive offer, and I'm still in disbelief that we got our dream home so fast. Thank you, Clara, for making it happen!

It all started back in 2011 when I decided to move to the Bay Area. We contacted Clara, and she was integral in helping me obtain my first home. She listened to my needs and helped me scope out a home that fit them all. I was out of state at the time, but one became available in a new development that was perfect! She is the reason I was able to get an amazing first home in the Bay Area. When it came time to sell that first home and look for a new one, Clara was able to help me secure a sale price way over what I expected, and gave great recommendations for vendors for staging, repairs, etc. It was because of her hard work and experience that it sol...

Clara has helped us purchase two wonderful Bay Area homes, and both times we found a place within just a few months of working with her. She is extremely good at her job. It's truly amazing how responsive and responsible she is. She will respond to messages almost immediately, even though she has a packed schedule. No matter how many little things we asked or scheduled, she has never forgotten any detail and always went out of her way to make us happy. She doesn't work with assistants, and you will get her full attention and dedication. She's also an excellent communicator, whether it's negotiation, dealing with differences in opinion, working with ...

Clara has done an amazing job helping us purchase our first home. From when we first started looking at homes to actually purchasing the home over a year later, Clara has been incredibly helpful throughout the whole process. At the beginning, she gave us a great overview of the current market conditions, showing us many great homes within our budget to help us get a sense of what to expect. We knew very little going into this home-buying process, and she provided some really great advice on what key things to look for in each home, how much repairs would cost, and would point out any red flags in the disclosure/inspection reports she found. She neve...
