Testimonials

Buyer of 1327 Wood St Says:

"We first reached out to Vicky in Spring 2020 as eager first-time home buyers who quickly found out that we were way out of our league! Vicky spent a long time with us via phone and email, patiently explaining what we were up against and what it would take to prepare ourselves to buy in the crazy Bay Area market. She gave us lots of advice and strategies that might make a purchase possible for us. We decided to wait until we felt more prepared, and followed up with her again in Spring 2022. We jumped right back in where we left off, and within a few months we had purchased a home! Vicky was so patient with us, and she really took time with us newbies explaining the many details of the process step by step. She was extremely responsive, even calling to give us good news about a home repair on her day off. We were and are very grateful for her guidance, and have already recommended her to others!"

Seller of 5320 Harbord Drive Says:

Vicky Faulk was the selling agent for our house in Oakland. Vicky was outstanding at managing what is a both stressful and emotional transaction. Vicky has years of experience and is very knowledgeable about her market area. She is responsive, and tailored her communication style to our preferences. Vicky communicates frequently and thoroughly. The marketing plan she developed was well thought out and executed as she promised. Vicky is businesslike, efficient, and well organized, but also very friendly. Highly recommended.

Seller of 3065 Kansas St Says:

I feel so fortunate to have found Vicky Faulk when I was selling my property. She is so professional, has great experience, is personable and has the backing of a nationally respected company.
All of this made the sale go smoothly. Vicky was a calming, reassuring influence and was always there to explain processes to me.
She also referred me a wonderful company that took care of all the updating & staging needs required. I know that this brought me to my goal of selling quickly and at a great price.
I'd give Vicky 10 stars if I could! She absolutely exceeded my expectations.

Buyer of 11001 Lochard St Says:

Vicky was our agent during a global pandemic and a super hot real estate market. Despite all the challenges given these circumstances, Vicky was the consummate professional. She was always available and responsive to all our requests to see houses we were interested in, no matter how last minute our requests were. Most importantly, her advice regarding pricing was always accurate. She knows her stuff! And she was always honest with us. This approach spared us from a lot of disappointment by us not bidding on houses that would be sold above the top range of budget, no matter that they were listed much much lower. (For context, at the time we were in this market, EVERYTHING sold for above ask.) Thanks to Vicky's help, our first offer was accepted in this competitive market. Our strategy worked and we highly recommend Vicky.

Buyer of 7370 Claremont Ave Says:

"We can recommend Vicky without hesitation. We first met her (pre-Covid!!) because we were considering a job offer in the Bay Area and my work recommended her. She spent a day with our family, getting to know us, listening intently (she's a superb listener) and showing us properties. When we finally managed the move (mid-Covid), she continued her great service. In addition to being a fantastic listener, Vicky is extremely thorough, careful and keen for you to secure the property that will be right not just today, but tomorrow as well. More than once she steered us to think carefully about properties that had 'wow' factor but may have not been quite right for us. Once we found the property we were set on, she helped us negotiate a great price and helped us navigate the, as it turned out, the less than straightforward purchase. We would recommend Vicky without hesitation."

Seller of 6634 Sobrante Rd. Says:

Just completed sale of a property in Montclair for a Trust. Vicky was knowledgeable and provided information and contacts I needed to get the job done quickly and efficiently. I would recommend her to anyone selling a property, there is a great deal one must deal with and she helped me navigate through it all.

Seller of 1 Lakeside Drive #806 Says:

Vicky handled the sale of my condo and seamless transfer into the beginning of a 1031 exchange with skill and poise. She absolutely knew the market, the other realtors, and the process cold. I never felt out of touch or had any worries that my property wasn't being attended to 24/7. Her advice was spot on. Besides all this, she's honest about what needs to be done and doesn't pander to you just to stroke your ego. She's simply the best.

Buyer of 3608 Lincoln Ave Says:

Vicky is an exceptional real estate agent and all-around trusted advisor to us in the home buying process. As first-time buyers we didn’t know what to expect out of the process – and having Vicky in our corner reduced the anxieties of the whole process. She took the time to explain all nuances of everything, listened closely to our needs, and was exceptionally detail-oriented. This allowed us to focus on finding the right home and to enjoy the home buying process. Most of all, Vicky is a true advocate for her clients, has the highest ethical standards, and is a true pleasure to work with.

Seller of 493 Forest St Says:

Vicky Faulk is one of the most capable real estate agents I’ve ever worked with. I was tasked with handling my mother’s estate from several states away. To say that the prospect of selling Mom’s property, while remaining home in the Midwest, was scary is an understatement. While the house was located in a highly desirable neighborhood there were some challenges associated with the property. The plan was to sell the house “as is,” contrary to how many sellers in the area chose to prepare their homes for market. Being unfamiliar with the Bay Area real estate market it was critical that I partner with the agent who could best help me navigate this project in the least amount of time with the best result.
All three of the agents I interviewed came highly recommended but, from the beginning, Vicky stood out. She was extremely knowledgeable about the area and enthusiastic about the home’s potential. She was easy to talk with and listened closely to my concerns. Her marketing proposal was thorough and she took the time to educate me on what to expect as we prepared the house for market. Her marketing materials and media strategies were impressive. We talked through pricing considerations; she prepared a rough timeline from “go” through close. It was clear that Vicky was someone I could rely on to see this project through.
Vicky made sure that we stayed in touch as needed which included email, texts, and at least one phone call weekly. She responded quickly whenever I had questions; she respected my time. She had lists of inspectors of all types as well as contacts for any task that could crop up. Those lists saved me a tremendous amount of time as I had a starting point for hiring without having to wade through web offerings from scratch. Vicky met inspectors and contractors at the house as needed and made sure everyone stuck to the timeline both before and after the house hit MLS. She hosted a brokers’ tour which was well attended; one open house was held for the public. The upshot of her fine work was strong, multiple offers within ten days and a sale that closed quickly! I couldn’t have been more pleased. I would not hesitate to recommend Vicky for her knowledge, professionalism, and ability to get great results.
