What Our Clients Say...

Ryan and Jenny

Working with Roland and his team was an outstanding experience from start to finish. He is incredibly accommodating and consistently went out of his way to fit showings and calls into our schedule. His level of expertise is immediately clear—he knows the market inside and out and offered valuable insights at every step. What impressed me most is how honest and thorough he is. Roland doesn’t sugarcoat things; he calls out potential issues with homes right away, even ones I never would’ve noticed. It’s clear he truly cares about helping his clients make the right decision, not just closing a deal. If you want a realtor who is professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in your best interest, Roland is the one to choose.

Working with Lydia Osage was truly an incredible experience. She helped us find our very first home, and as first-time buyers, we had a lot to learn. We met her at a viewing and instantly appreciated her welcoming and genuine approach. After sharing our information, she followed up with a beautifully made informational presentation that taught us so much about the home-buying process—things we didn’t even know we needed to know.Lydia is extremely knowledgeable about the East Bay Area and homes in general. Every little quirk or detail about a property, she knew. She was available to us every step of the way, always patient, always supportive. She guided us through placing multiple offers and negotiated on our behalf so well. Even though we didn’t get the first homes we tried for, she never gave up on us, and we eventually landed the home we truly wanted. She negotiated our final offer so skillfully that we got everything we hoped for.Lydia—and her son, who works alongside her—are truly exceptional at what they do. She is helpful, professional, dedicated, and genuinely cares about her clients. I wish more people knew about her, because she made our first home-buying experience better than we could have imagined. We are so grateful for her!

Roland is an amazing realtor! He's a local area expert, brings insightful perspectives to properties and valuations, and is super dialed in to client needs. He acted with our best interests as a buyer amidst the craziness of the East Bay housing market. The consummate professional and just a really good guy. Highly recommend.

Lydia and the entire team was highly professional, responsive and met my needs. I am impressed with the tools they used and the transparency displayed throughout the entire process. Lydia always offered solutions to whatever arose and I am pleased with how quickly and smoothly the sale went.

Andy Hartzell

We're very glad we chose Roland and Lydia to sell our house in Oakland. They're complete pros who clearly love what they do, whether it's bringing out the best features of a home or soothing the fraying nerves of the homeowners. Roland's video walkthrough was more than an ad--it was a fitting tribute to the house we'd spent 25 years fixing up. The sales process was surprisingly smooth, and we ended up with a price we're happy with.

This was our first experience selling a house, and we're very glad that we chose Lydia and Roland as our realtors. They're pros, but more than that--they clearly love the whole game: getting to know their customers, getting to know the properties, and executing the sales strategy. They immediately homed in on the features that make our old home unique, and they made sure those features were highlighted in the sales materials. They managed much of the prep work and held our hands through the difficult process of cleaning up and clearing out. They set the agenda, but listened to our concerns and adjusted the schedule to make our experience of moving more graceful. And finally, after all the sturm and drang of getting the property on the market, the actual sales process was smooth and painless, and got us a price we were happy with. We can heartily recommend Lydia and Roland!
