  • Everybody loves Roland. Oh, you thought the show was called Everybody Loves Raymond? Well, technically I guess it was however after our experience and time with Roland, this is how I see it now. I first found out about Roland through his fantastic, informative and hyper local Tiktok account. I was immediately drawn to his warmness and responsiveness when I initially reached out. When it came time to look for our first house I knew just who to call, and we are so glad that we did. From the very first house tour that we did with Roland we became actual aware of how much he was on " our team". He always pointed out potential hazards and property pitfalls that would have caused us trouble later down the road. His honesty and integrity is very clearly the most important value to him, as a professional and as a person. He educated us endlessly on the entire home buying process from start to finish which we had, literally zero clue about. I feel as though I could effortlessly pass a real estate course given the information he provided to us. No question was too small, not once did he make us feel as though we were inconveniencing him ( despite, I'm sure absolutely doing just that) We spent a lot of time with Roland and despite his patience , I feel like we saw a million houses. Three of which I was positive were " the ones, I couldn't live without them, I'm moving the budget houses". We didn't end up getting those houses and all of them were just stepping stones to our eventual forever home which we did find! Roland stayed so professional and positive throughout the entire journey that we couldn't help but feel a little sad when we we did eventually close on our house! Now, it didn't end there( thankfully, because, everybody loves Roland!) but he provided us with recommendations and vendors to help us with projects in our new home and has continued to check in on us, our family, and the house. He has been so immensely helpful even after closing, he's a gem, in this industry, in this world! We really and truly couldn't recommend him more highly to anyone considering hiring him as their agent. Keith&Charlotte Foster

  • If you want the Best home buying or selling experience please just consider Roland and Lydia. I recently purchased a home with Roland & Lydia Osage and they are a dream team and an absolute pleasure to work with! From the onset of the home buying process, they worked with us care & empathy to understand our needs and then constantly and consistently looked out for our best interest. The most important element in an agent is being personable, listening, flexible, the ability to read the client and understand their requirements and also be able to read the market accurately, offer valuable insights and advise their clients on the best course of action at the time of buying. They were very thorough in everything and ensured that they were looking out for our best interest and explaining what needs to be done at each step of the way (how to setup the contracts, what contingencies are important and how buyers can be protected throughout the process) They made this whole process (which can be overwhelming) very seamless and were speaking to us at each step of the way, explaining everything, setting expectations and constantly communicating with the seller agent to get any questions answered or items addressed. I had numerous questions throughout the process but they took the time to explain everything in detail ie: home prices, comps, area info, pointing out items we should consider when buying a home such as ( Schools, home value appreciation, pros and cons of one area vs another etc) as well as things to look at in detail inside the home to ensure it is a win win situation for us and we feel happy going into the home. I've worked with other agents in the past and usually once the home is closed the agents move onto other clients but not with Roland and Lydia. They are true believers in building relationships and community. They were checking in constantly post our close and post our move to ensure everything was good and if there was support they could provide from their end. They have also have an amazing team which includes home financing, home remodel and everything else that falls in the home domain and their team is very price competitive while providing quality care and craftsmanship. This is a one stop shop for an amazing home buying/ selling or remodeling experience. I would highlight recommend Roland and Lydia as the BEST and most Reliable real estate agents to consider when buying or selling your home.

  • Little did we know what a great choice we made in having Lydia Osage-Smith represent us in the sale of our condo. A solutions-minded and friendly professional, Lydia kept the momentum on task every step of the way while offering tips, insights and profitable suggestions such as canvassing nearby neighborhoods for potential buyers, professional multi-media marketing, broker tours, on-point staging and a doable open house and showing appointment schedule. Lydia respected our emotional process of preparing our home for market and saying goodbye to the home-base of our fond memories of 20 years there. She gently offered kindness, patience and understanding of our varying needs throughout the process. Lydia made us feel like we were the only client she had and she gave us her undivided attention at any time of the day or evening. She even vacuumed for us before an open house!What qualities await your partnership with Lydia? Charm, brilliance, creativity, energy, tenacity, thoughtfulness, vast technical real estate skills, generosity, humility and a grateful attitude.

  • Roland is extremely knowledgeable and easy to work with. He made the process of buying my first home so easy. He negotiated amazingly on my behalf and knows all the right people in the business to make things go smooth. I can't recommend him enough if you are looking for a realtor.
    Catherine Joslin
  • Roland is a dedicated professional. We were ready to downsize and Roland guided through the 4 year process. He was patient and understood our needs. Just an impressive young man who is kind and has a great team supporting him. He sold our house in less than two weeks, because he knows the market, how to market our home, and horsepower to make it happen. Can’t say enough about what a great person to work with when you want to buy or sell real estate.

  • Nobody works harder for you to sell your property and give you the easiest way to navigate the process. Lydia found contractors and a very good handyman to preform the work needed to ready my house for its highest potential. She was able to successfully negotiate the highest price for me. I would highly recommend her and use her again.

I highly recommend Roland to anyone seeking a realtor who combines expertise with a client-centric approach.

  • Working with Roland to sell our condo was a breeze! He and his team were super responsive, always on top of things, and made the whole process feel easy. We were so happy with how everything turned out. Roland went above and beyond, even helping us with questions about the new place we bought in a different area. He's not just a great agent, but a genuinely helpful person who made our lives easier throughout the whole selling, buying, and moving process. Thank you so much, Roland! We really appreciate everything. Best, Sergio and Ariana

  • I am thrilled to share my outstanding experience with Roland Osage, who played a pivotal role in making my first-time homebuying journey not only successful but truly enjoyable! From our initial meeting, Roland's expertise and professionalism were evident as he presented a comprehensive overview of the homebuying process. What stood out was his ability to listen and understand my preferences, not only for a house but for a home in a specific neighborhood with a particular design aesthetic. Roland's strategic negotiation skills and positive rapport with the seller's agent were instrumental in securing the winning offer on a highly competitive listing. This achievement showcased his proficiency in navigating negotiations and laying the foundation for a successful transaction. Beyond this key milestone, Roland continued to provide unwavering support. His patient guidance and willingness to address my questions contributed to a smooth and approachable process. His insights and suggestions played a crucial role in shaping my decisions throughout the transaction. What truly set Roland apart was his comprehensive and hands-on approach. He arranged home inspections, obtained quotes from arborists when tree removal became necessary, and even went the extra mile by being present on-site at the new house when I was unavailable. This delightful commitment demonstrated his dedication to ensuring a seamless and personalized experience for a first-time homebuyer. I am not only pleased with the outcome but deeply grateful for Roland's exceptional service. If you're seeking a realtor who combines strategic negotiation skills with a personalized touch, Roland Osage is the person to turn to. Thank you, Roland!

  • If you’re looking for a reliable and honest realtor, look no further! My fiancé and I are first time homebuyers and Roland was highly recommended to us by one of our friends who used him as an agent. Roland was there for us every step of the way and spent several weekends in a row showing us homes throughout the East Bay. Our home search was far and wide, but Roland remained patient and was willing to explore the various cities, neighborhoods, and different types of homes to make sure we were making the right decisions for ourselves. Roland made us feel comfortable and advocated for us throughout the entire process. While the home buying process was very overwhelming, Roland never pressured or rushed us into making decision that we were not comfortable with. He always made himself available to answer our questions and talk through any of our concerns. Being a first-time home buyer especially in the Bay Area is very stressful, but having a genuine agent like Roland on our side has made it a successful experience. Roland, thank you for everything you've done for us. We greatly appreciate all the support and couldn't have gone through this big journey without you!

  • Here’s a quick story that reflects our time with Roland: My fiancé and I had been seeing 5-10 open houses each weekend, with Roland with us every step of the way. We put in a few offers during this time and came up short. Something finally came on the market that caught our eye. We thought this could be the one. We texted Roland, coordinated a date, and eagerly awaited the day where we could walk through the home together. Fast forward to the day of the open house, Roland walks in, takes a look at a few key areas, and within minutes, looks at me and my fiancé and says, "no, we're leaving." This was the level of trust and respect we had for Roland throughout this process, because he was open and transparent the entire time and did his homework on the neighborhood and markets we were interested in. So, we walked away from the home and didn’t bother with an offer. End story. I think most homeowners, whether first time buyers or those who are looking to add another property to their portfolio, are looking for the same thing: a realtor they can trust. Someone who treats this search as if it was their own purchase. It’s simple and cliché, but it’s what we all want. Roland did that and more. Roland never made us feel rushed, even when we were on the fence on quite a few homes. He would always remind us: “there will always be other homes on the market”. For someone whose career is dependent on home sales, this was an incredibly reassuring thing to hear. An important note to add, Roland is also a new dad to a beautiful baby girl, so we felt terrible pulling him away from his daddy duties… but he was always available. Fun fact: during the walkthrough on the home we finally closed on, Roland brought his daughter with him because he wanted to make sure he was with us. That’s how committed he was to us. Yes, being a first-time homebuyer is scary. Yes, the Bay Area market is intimidating. Yes, these interest rates are hot trash. So, you need someone like Roland who is going to have your best interest at heart. We consider Roland a friend now and if we’re ever lucky enough to be in the market for another home, this man will be the first person we call. Speaking of friends, we’re now on our way to see Roland at his holiday gathering… much love and appreciation, Roland! We’ll see you soon!

  • I do not have enough words to express how wonderful Roland is. From the very start he was transparent about the process and what to expect from him and the home buying process. Any questions he has he would try to get us answers quickly. My husband and I were able to get our home with everything we were looking for with a VA loan. Though the loan process can be long and daunting Roland made sure we knew what was happening. From start to finish the communication was strong and the knowledge he has was so vital when purchasing a home. Thanks so much Roland!

  • Lydia helped us with a pretty complicated transaction. We needed to sell our current home in time to purchase our dream home and it needed to happen quickly. Long story short, we ended up with multiple offers above our list price and were able to complete the transaction. Lydia has a great personality, energy and was always available to answer our questions. I continue to recommend her to friends and family. You should check her out for any of your real estate needs!

  • Lydia was always responsive and hardworking. She sold our house in a few days. I highly recommend her! She did lengthy open houses and was an excellent marketer.

  • We are recent transplants from Europe and new to the Tri-Valley area. At our first meeting, Roland updated and confirmed a lot of our ideas about the area and the real estate market. He was informative and impartial. After looking around, we decided to purchase a new construction in Dublin. Roland was responsive to our questions and followed up with us throughout the process. While one might expect buying a new home from a builder is relatively uncomplicated, it was not true in our case: as we approached the closing date (7 months after the contract was signed), there were problems, both big and small, with the upgrades we ordered and the delivery conditions. The situation was frustrating and potentially deal-breaking. We very much appreciated Roland’s proactive approach and straightforward communication style. Roland had advised us on our options and negotiated on our behalf with the builder to arrive at a satisfactory resolution. We moved in with only a slight delay and are very happy in our new home. Even after the transaction has closed, he keeps in touch. Roland is resourceful, trustworthy and most importantly, he responded to any of our concerns in a timely manner. We highly recommend him.

  • I recently had the pleasure of working with Roland who helped me purchase a condo in the Bay Area. From the moment we started the process, is knowledge, professionalism, and dedication were evident. He understood my specific requirements and provided valuable insights and guidance throughout the search. His expertise in the local market was impressive, and he was able to identify properties that perfectly matched my preferences. The responsiveness and prompt communication made the entire experience stress-free, he promptly scheduled viewings, answered all my questions, and kept me informed at every step. When it came to negotiations, they skillfully represented my interests, resulting in a favorable deal. Roland’s attention to detail and thoroughness in the paperwork and documentation ensured a seamless closing process. Even after the sale, he followed up to ensure my satisfaction and offered assistance with any post-purchase needs. I am grateful for his expertise and professionalism. If you're looking for a realtor in the Bay Area, I highly recommend his services. Roland will go above and beyond to make your home buying experience a success.

  • I wholeheartedly recommend Roland to anyone in need of a skilled and dedicated professional who will go the extra mile to turn dreams into reality! Our family of 4, two children, my husbands and I recently had the pleasure of working with an incredible real estate agent, Roland Osage, who went above and beyond in helping us find the right home. I cannot express my gratitude enough for the outstanding service, SF east Bay area expertise, and generosity I experienced throughout the entire process. From our initial meeting, Roland took the time to truly understand our needs and preferences. He carefully listened to our requirements (a long list!) asking insightful questions to ensure he has a clear understanding of what we were looking for. His exceptional knowledge of the local housing/east bay market, general construction, and real estate industry was evident right from the start. Roland expertly guided us through the entire home-buying journey, from searching for properties to the final closing. He was always available, promptly responding to our many many texts/calls and patiently addressed any concerns or questions we had along the way. One of the most remarkable qualities of Roland as his commitment to finding the perfect home for us. He really went above and beyond in scheduling the viewings that fit our busy schedule in the evenings, and listings were right on considering our preferences. Thanks to Roland’s dedication and unwavering commitment, we are now the owner the home that is just right for my family and my elderly Mother. Thank you, Roland, for making our home buying experience an unforgettable and enjoyable one! Sincerely, From our entirely family; Claire, Ethan, Mark and Connie

  • We love our new home. Roland - #Professional realtor. #Trustworthy partner! Thank you for making our home purchasing process so smooth!

  • Enlisting Roland Osage as a realtor has proven one of the wisest decisions my family has ever made. Roland assisted in the purchase of our first home, and he was so effective that we recommended him to my parents (whom he also helped to close on a property). Being a first-time homebuyer was incredibly daunting. As long time renters in the Bay Area, my wife and I were not convinced that we would be able to afford a house, let alone find a good, convenient neighborhood to inhabit. Throughout our search, Roland was incredibly helpful. He understood our wants and limitations and worked hard to provide us with viable options. Over the course of our search, Roland was patient, resourceful, and flexible, and we still marvel at the quality of homes that he was able to present us with. Buying in the East Bay can feel like a bit of a no-win situation, and Roland helped us believe that we could achieve our dream. Most importantly, Roland was honest. He readily identified problems and never tried to sell us on bad deals. When we finally decided upon the property that would become our home, Roland helped us feel confident in our decision. We love our house and neighborhood, and everything that Roland told us about it proved true. (As an aside, Roland has been very good about following up with us, and he's happy to refer specialists that can help with miscellaneous maintenance considerations.) We really lucked out with Roland. As a realtor, he's more than earned our highest recommendation.
    Karl Evangelista
  • Our experience working with Roland on buying our first house in the Bay Area was excellent. He was super responsive and reliable and handled everything smoothly. We were able to see our preferred options and submit offers in a timely manner, and got a lot of help from Roland in moving the process forward. I will gladly use him again when I will need to buy or sell a house.
    Roman Levytskyy
  • Roland found us the home that we really like and suited our lifestyle. He is thorough and efficient and makes himself available for our endless questions and requests. And even after we finished the transaction he keeps in touch and we even get pies every year. Thank you Roland!!

  • I want to Express my appreciation for Roland Osage, an outstanding realtor. When it came to selling my parents’ house in San Rafael, we were dealing with some tough times due to their health condition. Roland truly exceeded our expectations, demonstrating exceptional professionalism and understanding. He went above and beyond, keeping us well-informed throughout the entire process and effortlessly managing all the contractors involved. With his finesse and expertise, everything ran smoothly without a hitch. Thanks to Roland’s expertise, that place was If you're in search of a highly competent realtor who will treat you right, I highly recommend Roland Osage. He's the real deal and will ensure your Roland’s professionalism was top-notch, but what really stood out was how he treated us like family. He genuinely cared about our situation and went the extra mile to make sure we were making the best decisions. If you're in search of a highly competent realtor who will treat you right, I highly recommend Roland Osage. He's the real deal and will ensure your real estate journey is smooth and successful.
    James Saltorre
  • Roland is the most committed realtor that someone could ask for. He brought so much information to the homes we looked at. I have been following his social media pages for years and the knowledge he has about the market really confirmed that he was the best realtor for our family. In addition, when it came to our needs in a home he did not disappoint in finding the perfect home with everything we need. He fought for the price we wanted and negotiated wonderfully. We are grateful for excellent job he did and how much he truly cared about finding our family a home.
    Kristyanne McKean
  • We found Lydia at an open house. She was immediately friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. Using her as our agent was the best choice we could have made. She helped us buy a house shortly after we met her she was great throughout the whole process. I highly recommend her for buying or selling a home. It can be so stressful purchasing a home, but Lydia was there for us throughout the whole process! 10/10 recommend.
    samlbelmont
  • Lydia is a consummate and caring professional and an all around wonderful human! Lydia goes way above the call of duty; she has spent countless hours with me on the phone going over the nuances of the home buying process (which can be very arduous and confusing.) Lydia is also a great advocate and was absolutely instrumental in the process of navigating and negotiating issues that arose in the inspection. What shines through the most in her work is her heart and care for her clients- words fail to convey how helpful, professional and attentive Lydia is. Based off my experience I will be recommending her to anyone I know trying to buy a house!

  • Lydia had perfect timing! She literally showed up at my door exactly when I needed her, she held my hand throughout the home buying process, she was super knowledgeable but personable, and she learned my needs and the needs of my children. She and her team worked hard to find a good fit for me and my kids. This was a big deal for me as a single mom, and she made me feel comfortable every step of the way! Lydia didn't just find us a house, she found us a home! I have realtor friends I certainly could have turned to, but I felt like Lydia was placed in our lives!....everything happens for a reason.

  • I've never clicked 5 STARS so fast!! Lydia was absolutely delightful to work with, so positive, engaging and down-to-earth, from start until the very end!! We met her through Bill Stanger (who is also very lovely!) as we were looking more into Solano area. She really opened my eyes to wonderful spots in Vallejo. We loved how available and flexible she was, even when we just had a simple question, it always felt like we were talking to a lifelong friend. She was even present during our signing, which surprised even the closing agent because not all realtors are this awesome. There was a little hiccup during our signing with the lender, and Lydia was phenomenal standing up for us!!

  • Roland is extremely responsive, driven, and a go-getter. Easy to work with and strategize with. Highly recommend.

  • As a home stager, I've worked with many realtors and Roland is truly top-notch. He communicates in a timely manner, is quick to resolve any issues that may come up and is well-respected in the industry. I look forward to working with him again!
    Kelly Edwards
  • When I decided to sell my house, Roland was one of several realtors recommended to me by friends. After my first meeting with him, I didn't need to talk to anyone else -- I knew he would be the perfect realtor for me and my house and I was right! We all know the Pandemic changed the real estate market, and also changed the way people do business. A lot of agents haven't adapted and are still selling homes in the 'traditional' manner. Roland has not only adapted, he's innovated while still maintaining the 'traditional' values of integrity and compassion. My sale was a bit complicated -- involving a renovation, a move out of state, and last minute delay with the buyer's loan paperwork -- but Roland always made sure to keep me update on what I needed to know while at the same time giving me the confidence that he was handling the day to day issues so I didn't have to. I followed Roland's advice on 98% of everything we did and on the 2% I felt strongly about he listened to my reasoning and found a way to make my wishes work with his plans. Now that everything is finished and sold, I have no regrets about choosing to work with Roland and enthusiastically recommend him to anyone else looking for a realtor! Thank you for all your hard work and kindness, Roland.

  • Roland was wonderful to work with! He sold our condo in Hercules after one open house and we went into escrow after just 5 days being on the market during holiday season! He made everything very easy to navigate, very professional, always available and helpful. Roland and his team made what could have been a stressful and difficult process as seamless as could be since it was during the holiday times. Roland really cares passionately about his job and his calming manner worked wonders for us. Highly recommend and will for sure be using him in the future!
    Kayla Richey
  • Roland definitely sets the bar high. He was very helpful and informative while guiding us through the process of purchasing our first home. I was overwhelmed with anticipation of how dreadful the process would be based off what I had heard from others experiences, but I honestly can’t imagine a more seamless process than the one we experienced with Roland and his team. Everything went smoothly from start to finish. He also have great advice which we followed and benefited from. Team Roland all the way!
    Stephanie Vo
  • Roland exceeded all expectations during our search for our home. He provided very sound advice and never stopped hustling to make sure everything came together right. I would strongly recommend him and we will be working with him again on any future home purchases.

  • I wish I could give Roland more then 5 stars. He was so informative and really let us take our time to find our perfect home. Professional and just genuinely a great guy.
    Samuel Ketron
  • First I want to start with I owed Roland this review a long time ago, but it's been a very busy first year in our new home! That's right Roland was a jewel finding us our new home last year right around this time. It was December 24th when he handed us our keys. Yep, just in time for Christmas, but let me but me put some meat with those potato's. I met Roland while entertaining the idea of owning a home in the future. If not mistaken it was in early 2020. The reason why I tell you this is I started dibbing into looking at homes I think I could afford and during that process I met a lot of realtors. I kept their card and one of which was Roland's. Now during this time I was not prepared to make a move, as a matter of fact I didn't know what it was going to be like, nor did I have my down payment saved up yet, but I stayed in contact with realtor's or should I say they stayed in contact with me. This is where the shining starts. Out of all the realtor contacts I had made, Roland was the only one that respected my timeline. Roland never pressured me, he always checked in when I asked, usually 3 months out, or more. This is what ultimately when me over, and little did I know I had a future diamond of a realtor. Anyways to not make this too long, Roland also brought along a lender who was just as much a jewel as Roland. His name is Bryce Giant, and man, this team handle me with tremendous professional care and gave so much guidance through a process is indescribable that you have to appreciate them both, but Roland, Roland that's my guy! Merry Christmas from Xavier, and Sheila!!!

  • We were very lucky to find an agent like Roland. He made our house search and buy such a breeze. We were getting really impatient when we were not getting the house based on our requirements either due to low inventory and high prices or due to crazy bidding process where people will pay alot of money above the listing price to purchase the house but he was very patient with us though out our journey. He was always available to show us the house with just a phone call away and was very accommodating to all our needs. He always gave his honest opinion and provided great details of market trends and tips so that we can make an informed decision but never pushed us to buy a house. I can surely say that he was the best agent we dealt with till now. I would highly recommend him to all my family and friends for home buy or sell.
    Priyanka Gupta
  • My husband and I are so grateful to have met Roland. The first time I met him, I knew I could put my trust and faith in him. Have you ever experienced meeting someone for the first time and immediately feeling at ease and comfortable with them? That’s how it was with Roland. He is genuine, attentive, informative, and extremely helpful. My husband and I were a bit fearful about buying our first home. Of course, we were ready to do so, but when you’ve never done something before, it can be a bit nerve wracking. Roland answered EVERY question we had. He always got back to us right away, which meant so much to us. He never pressured us into making any decisions, but instead, worked with us through the entire process. He made sure to tell us to follow that initial gut feeling when purchasing a home - Trust your instincts. He calmed our anxiety and assisted us in finding our dream home! I’ll forever be thankful to Roland for his generosity, his attention to detail, and the time he spent with us. We are now in our beautiful home, and we couldn’t be happier. Thank you, Roland! We appreciate you so much.
    Rebecca Elliott
  • We couldn't have asked for a better agent! Roland originally reached out to us towards the end of last year because we requested to see a house via one of the real estate sites and he just so happened to get the request. We don't recall whether we ended up seeing that house or not since we were only casually looking at the time. There were other agents that had gotten assigned to us as well, but Roland was the only one that kept following up—and not in an annoying way—even though he knew we weren't serious buyers at the time. When we were finally ready to buy, we couldn't think of a better advocate to represent us than Roland. He would always follow up with us when he said he would and kept us updated on the status of certain houses we were interested in. He worked diligently without ever expressing annoyance to our never-ending questions or random texts during odd hours of the day. Under his guidance, we never felt pressured to make an offer just for the sake of making it, or go way above asking price. Rather, he always advised us to sleep on it first and to stick to the number we were comfortable with. At the end of the day, he knew what we were looking for and always steered us in the right path. Even after we closed, he still reaches out to us just to casually check in. It was a great pleasure getting to work with him as he made the process less stressful for us. If you ever need any work done to the house (e.g. plumbing, flooring), he has some great contacts he could give you as well. We highly recommend him without reservation!

  • There’s so much to say but Roland is absolutely amazing, one of the most honest and genuine guys I have had the pleasure to work with! Completely through and meticulous when it comes to the little details. If you have any questions or are unsure of Anything during the process he is there to walk you through it and explain everything in a way that is easy to understand. Wouldn’t want to work with anyone else. If you are looking for someone to trust he is the man for you always going above and beyond to make sure you have the best experience! I wouldn’t choose anyone else to work with. Thanks for everything you do and did for us!

  • After dealing with some not-so-good agents, we took a chance on Roland because he came across very genuine and truly listened to us. In our lifetime we’ve purchased four homes and I have to say that hands down Roland was the most professional agent. He was diligent from start to finish and went beyond his job duty to get our desired results. We were fortunate to have him represent us and would not hesitate to in our next real estate endeavors. Thanks again Roland for your expertise and the friendship we’ve gained from this process!

  • I found Roland after I let go of a previous Realtor who "allowed" me to find the properties myself. I reached out and informed him about a property I wanted to see. He quickly got on the job and not only showed me the one I wanted but 2 others he felt I would like. I decided on the first one. Roland is professional, smart , knows his craft , how to negotiate a deal and above all is very personable. Roland worked closely with my lender like a fine tuned machine. I must say purchasing this house was easier for me as a client than the purchase of most vehicles. Thanks to my Lender and to Roland who guided us through the process. We closed in less than a month beginning to end. Roland graciously presented my daughter and I our keys the Day after Christmas 2018. Until this day he checks up to make sure things are ok. Thank you soo much Roland for helping us and all you do every day for your clients there no doubt in my mind. #bestrealtorever

  • Realtors are a dime a dozen, right? But good realtors who actually care about finding the right home for you and your family are hard to find - Roland Osage is that guy. He walked us through every step of the process, showing us countless listings until we found exactly what we were looking for. We’ve recommended him dozens of times to family, friends and even total strangers!

  • Roland is very knowledgeable about a market that can be difficult to guide through on your own. Outgoing, personable and great communication are standout qualities that are hard to come by.

  • We loved working with Roland. Very nice man, honest, kept us involved, answered our questions. We bought what we bought mostly because of Roland’s diligence and attention to details. Hard working; great communicator and super personality. Reliable. Responsive. We highly recommend him.

  • Roland helped my family and I purchase our home in Alameda, the whole process went very smooth and we’re glad we choose him to represent us. We always recommend our friends and family to Roland if they’re looking for a great Realtor.

  • My husband and I are Bay Area natives, and the thought of house hunting and being first time buyers was stressful and daunting. We honestly didn't know what we were getting outselves into, but knew it was the right time for us to enter the market. As soon as we requested more information on Realtor.com, we were flooded with over 50 texts/calls. Most were generic, some didn't call back, but from day one, Roland's message stood out as sincere. Roland made the process easy and he was always available to answer any questions we had. I don't want to encourage this, so sorry Roland, but he was available to text at all hours! He's so passionate about real estate and truly wanted us to find the right home. It's a very long process, and at times we just wanted to buy a home that didn't feel 100% right for us just to end the process, but Roland was often the only one in the group to say, "You guys need to wait for the right home. I don't care if this takes us over a year; I want to make sure you love your home." INCREDIBLE! We couldn’t have done this without Roland. He never rushed us and genuinely cared about our investment like we were family. If you’re looking to work with someone who is well-versed in real estate, honest, patient, flexible, and a strong negotiator, then Roland is the guy for you! Roland, thank you again for helping us find the home of our dreams. We love it, and can't wait to start a family here.

  • Roland is a PHENOMENAL agent here in the Bay Area! He’s responsive, can answer all questions and make sure that you understand and have the best if the best available to you! I recommend him for any buying or selling needed. I love working with him!

  • As an escrow officer I recommend Roland to any buyer or seller. He is thorough.

  • I recently recommended Roland Osage to a co-worker of mine who was interested in selling her home. My friend told me that Roland was so proactive on helping them by giving advice on what parts of their home to focus their efforts on for making a bigger bang for their buck, like what wall to paint and what to clean up in their yard to make a difference for folks coming through on open houses, She said Roland even helped them out with a bit of the cleaning!! I am so glad I recommended someone who actually cares and I’m glad she was pleased with the outcome of the sale!

  • I have worked with Roland on several deals. His market knowledge and negotiation skills make him very good at his job. In this day and age you don't need a Realtor to help you find the property so much. You need one who is going to help you find the way to get your offer accepted with the best terms possible and keep negotiating even while in contract. That's the way Roland operates.

  • Roland is absolutely wonderful to work with. He went above and beyond in helping my ex-husband and I sale our house. He really cares and makes you feel like you matter. Did a wonderful job with marketing the house and open houses. Would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sale.
