"We've been working with Elena Johal for over 10 years. I contacted her after going to one of her open houses. I love the way she stages homes. She's the best agent you can find out there. She's honest, caring, reliable, and has integrity which is saying a lot considering all the shady REALTORS out there. Elena Johal has helped us sell and buy multiple properties for investments and personal use in Santa Clara and Santa Cruz County. She understands 1031 exchanges, taxes, legal ramifications, and other considerations that go into purchasing real estate. She has provided valuable advice throughout the years that have helped us financially. We have referred her to family and friends who feel the same way. What I love about her are her honesty and straightforwardness. No sugar coating. Let's just get down to business because she knows that's how we are. Even though she can make more money or an easy sale, she'll tell us when she doesn't think it's right for us. She has not steered us wrong yet. Last year, she helped us purchase our dream home in a hot market. We were one of five offers. She recommended an above-asking price that matched two others but the owners went with us in part because their agent felt more confident in Elena Johal's experience and professionalism as well as the clean offer she presented. The transaction was so smooth. She took care of everything. We've dealt with bad agents in the past so we feel so fortunate to have Elena Johal by our side."

"Elena Johal sold our home in less than a week. Do I have to say more? We met Elena Johal 5 years ago when we were looking for our current home (which, in the future, Elena Johal would sell).

"Elena Johal sold our home in less than a week. Do I have to say more? We met Elena Johal 5 years ago when we were looking for our current home (which, in the future, Elena Johal would sell). She had a lasting impression on us. So, after 5 years, when we were ready to sell our current home, Elena Johal was the obvious choice. We wrote to her one night and she called the next morning, and after the initial call, she came by and the process started. Everything Elena Johal suggested was to help make the house even more sellable. She helped with getting the painter and worked with him to suggest how the painted house should look like. She helped with packing, storing, landscaping, and of course, staging. After the house was decluttered, painted, and staged, it looked so lovely, and the pictures turned out so beautifully. As mentioned before, when the house went on the market, after a single weekend of open houses, Elena Johal had multiple offers ready. After buying and selling multiple houses, we have worked with many real estate agents in the bay area, and Elena Johal belongs to a class of her own. We are truly appreciative of her effort, energy, and attention to detail."

"We worked with Elena Johal to sell our house and were very impressed with her services. She helped us to identify the right asking price. She was respectful of our opinions yet she brought her independent objective evaluation. She worked with us to assess what needed to be done to present our property in the best possible light (back yard, front yard, as well as inside of the house) and then brought her gardeners and painters to make improvements and increase curb appeal. Her services included staging at no extra cost to us. She staged the house cleverly, providing a visual map for the average buyer to envision how they would use the space instead of how we used the space given the specific needs of our family. For example, she staged the area we used as a dining room as a family room and turned the room we used as an office into a dining room – and that made a huge positive difference. During the whole process, she was calm, professional, and very positive."

Elena Johal was patient with us as we learned about the process and guided us in the right direction.

She would paint a beautiful picture of what we could have and worked hard to give us what we wanted!
