My daughter referred James Shin to me to sell my home, as he sold hers successfully the prior year. When I first met James he showed his professionalism. James presented me a portfolio with his game plan of how he would proceed with selling my home. This included the past homes sold in my area, homes currently on the market (there was a glut of homes at this time), and future asking price projections in my area. He sold my home when the market was turning towards being a buyers’ market from the previous sellers’ market during the CoVid19 times. James also had the challenge of helping me completely clear out my home, which I lived in for 45 years. He is a caring and understanding person, and he supported me through this entire process. I knew the market was quickly changing unfavorably for me and I needed to move fast, but the task was daunting! He was so patient and gently nudged me alon…

The communication line between us was open. I was encouraged to reach out to him if I had any questions or concerns; and I did! Issues came up with my home during the sale, but James tackled each problem as they occurred. No problem was too big for him. James Shin is the complete realtor and a wonderful human being. I trusted him to sell my home and he succeeded! Thank you, James! Donna Ja (Seller)

I cannot find words to rave about James. Not only was he professional but he's gone above and beyond to make the house sale and buying process a piece of cake (I had 0% stress as he kept us up to date on everything and every step of the process). We tried selling our home earlier through a rated #1 agent (read another review of mine) in Sunnyvale, who priced it low to have bidding offers despite my reservations. We even moved out of the house + paid for staging and other items. The offer date came and they kept on telling us that there should be 4-5 offers but at 5 pm they said they have no offer and are surprised. We gave another week to them to try before I fired them as they were trying to convince us to take the asking price offer (which was way lower than we expected). Next, I met with James.

I liked their presentation and approach from the start that I picked them despite my wife had not met him yet! Yes, I was confident in him. We had a cool-off period of 1 month and he did an excellent job of marketing to get a preemptive offer before the home went on the market which was above asking (over $100k more than the previous month's offer). We also bought a home using James and have been happy with him. No stress no pushing, just guiding us with information. You can talk to him about what you think vs. him telling you what to do; such a difference from my past experiences. James has been still helping with some work we needed to be done on our home + helping us with any help and assistance we require. Yes, the sales part is already done and he should have the check. But he is still here and I believe we've found a truly friendly Realtor®️ in James. We've already asked a friend to reach out to them as soon as they are ready. I highly recommend them! All my friends who sold homes in my neighborhood agree that the stress they went through was not worth it. I had zero stress working with James (nervous yes but not stressed).

Back in 2003, James helped us buy our first home. We didn't know what we were doing back then and James was very patient in guiding us through the process. The home had multiple offers, so James explained to us the negotiating process of offers and counter-offers. He helped us in coming up with a counter-offer that allowed us to get the house at a bargain. Since that first purchase, he has helped us purchase three more properties. We keep going back to James because he is highly knowledgeable, incredibly hard-working, and a genuine problem solver. He is calm and empathetic throughout the difficult times that occur during the purchase process. He listens to your concerns and desires before finding a solution. Above all, his best qualities are that he is honest, trustworthy, and a genuinely good person. I would recommend James to anyone who is interested in buying or selling properties.

I have had the opportunity to work with James on two real estate transactions in the past 2 years and have been very satisfied. James turned a very negative experience I had with another agent into one that was pleasant and basically got the job done. James understands your needs and wants and focuses on those things. One thing I appreciate about James is his responsiveness and his knowledge in the field. He responds to your inquiries within minutes and that speaks volumes for me. He has a professional team who is equally professional and has adopted his philosophy and business model. I would definitely work with James again and wouldn't hesitate in recommending him to my friends and family.
