Testimonials

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 beyond as our selling agent to make sure the transaction closed smoothly without any hiccups. We trusted her judgement with all matters related to the sale, from staging, to pricing, to strategizing over open house weekend dates, and we found a …

She also went above and beyond as our selling agent to make sure the transaction closed smoothly without any hiccups. We trusted her judgement with all matters related to the sale, from staging, to pricing, to strategizing over open house weekend dates, and we found a great buyer in no time. Altogether, we've done 3 transactions with Clara (buy, sell, buy) and plan to do it again when we next sell.

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 than stressful. Overall, Clara was extremely timely and professional, meeting with us on our schedule to walk through paperwork. She was supportive all the way through the closing process too.

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. Clara then outlined every step of the process and set up hours to walk through every single line of the contract. She was always quick to respond to every question that came up.

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. She was a master at marketing the home to potential buyers on all major sites with professional photos and videos and had two very successful open house weekends.

We found Clara's knowledge of the market and pricing strategies to be invaluable and enabled the house to sell significantly over the asking price. We highly recommend Clara as a full 360 degree realtor who is at the top of her field. We were very thankful to have been referred to her and could not have found a more dedicated professional. She is a joy to work with.

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 we felt comfortable every step of the way. If you’re looking for a dedicated, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring agent, we can’t recommend Clara enough.

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 help with additional work we wanted done. She was very communicative throughout the whole process, giving us real-time updates on the status, and responded lightning-fast to all our messages. We always felt she had our back.

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 and explain everything from documents to the process, and simply being there to support me and my family as a kind human being.

Even after the transaction, she's continued to support us by providing advice on home selling, being with us during our interior design session, and she's even helping me source a reliable selling agent in a completely different city by interviewing fellow agents! She's the whole package: incredibly responsive, professional, on top of everything, warm-hearted, genuine, and smart. I'm grateful to have met her, and she's definitely staying on my speed dial. I'd recommend her to anyone looking for an agent in a heartbeat!

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 quickly, I’m not sure we would have had a chance. She recommended an offer price that got us the house, while being respectful of our limits and what we were comfortable with. She talked effectively with the seller’s agent and recommended a succes…

She recommended an offer price that got us the house, while being respectful of our limits and what we were comfortable with. She talked effectively with the seller’s agent and recommended a successful strategy for our preemptive offer. She went the extra mile to get all the paperwork done in time to make a quick offer. Throughout the month that we worked with her (looking back on it, it was only a month between when we were introduced to her for the first time and when our offer was accepted!), she took care of us as well as her other clients. We actually enjoyed the process of buying a home in the Bay Area, in large part due to working with Clara Lee. We feel so fortunate to have gotten our dream home with our first offer.

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 sold so high. Fast forward to 2021, and it was time for us to move again. Clara was the first person we contacted.

Fast forward to 2021, and it was time for us to move again. Clara was the first person we contacted. She walked us through the selling process and helped with the staging, recommendations for obtaining vendors for repairs, and whatnot. She uses the latest technology, including drone imaging and 3D mapping software that allows people to do a virtual walkthrough of the home, which really helped buyers visualize our home, and they were able to visit even if they were uncomfortable due to the pandemic. She was also able to assist with helping us while we were out of state, such as letting in vendors to do work, or to assist with the removal of items that may have been left behind. Due to her hard work, we were able to secure dozens of offers on the property, and she was able to help us navigate the selling process and negotiations with the interested buying parties. Because of Clara, we were able to get much more than expected on the sale of our home. She's an amazing realtor.

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 never rushed us as we spent a while looking at house to house, and always made sure we were comfortable and happy with the home before moving forward. In the offer/contract phase, she was incredibly detailed in laying out what to expect, which con…

In the offer/contract phase, she was incredibly detailed in laying out what to expect, which contingencies were important and which we should consider waiving, and would help us carefully comb through all the disclosures to identify problems we missed before the offer. She also gave a lot of great advice with respect to pricing: how much lower to bid on non-competitive homes, and how much higher to bid on homes with multiple offers. She also helped negotiate for 2 of the offers we made and was extremely professional and helpful in bringing down the price for us to what we wanted. Overall, we're really happy with the home we got and the price we got it for. She was able to provide some much-needed expertise to help us get through this process smoothly.
