Client Testimonials

"Anita is SUPER professional. She talked to us about the entire process, gave us a handy informational packet, and then started looking for places for us.  She is super knowledgable about the Oakland area, and she could tell us from the address whether we'd get shot or not. ;) We ended up also meeting with Liz a lot, too, who is equally as fabulous. We felt really confident knowing that we had these two on our team. We ended up buying a three bedroom/two bathroom condo in our dream area. We NEVER would have thought we could get into a place like this, but Anita insisted we try. Thank goodness she did!  Our bid was accepted and we are so, so happy with our new place. I would highly recommend Liz and Anita to anyone looking for a house. They are fantastic!”

—Sarah and Yorkey

Long story short - the loft I wanted didn't happen, and for good reason: Anita found me a bigger, better place (in the same complex, even), for about 75% of the price. I'm now living out my little loft homeowner dream and it's literally because of her and the very helpful Liz McFarland, her partner in crime who was there all through the process. These two were a rockin' team and I cannot say enough good about them. I'm planning on buying an investment property in a few years and there won't be a question as to who I call first.”

—Brian and Jessica

“Anita and Liz - I want to thank you both for helping me sell my brother’s property in Montclair. I was feeling overwhelmed and you guided me though the complicated process with both professionalism and kindness. I will always remember you both with gratitude.”

—Denise

"Anita was terrific to work with---responsive, knowledgeable, and very attentive to my needs and concerns as a first-time buyer. As a single person, the home-buying process can be intimidating and overwhelming; with Anita as my agent, I never felt alone in the process. She helped me find the property that was a perfect fit, advised me well in a competitive market, and made sure every last detail was accounted for as we approached closing. I'd recommend her to anyone looking for experienced guidance in navigating the treacherous California real estate market."

— C. Muller

“Anita has challenged the way things are done with mortgage companies/title companies and the seller when appropriate. She has truly acted in the best interest on my behalf. She made the process very simple and less stressful, especially during the Holiday’s for me. I would encourage anyone to use Anita Becker as your agent.”

—A. Fernandez

"I can't tell you how great it's been to work with someone we felt we could really trust. You understood exactly what we were looking for and you were prepared to work very hard to help us get. Thank you for everything! "

—J. Johnson

"As first-time homebuyers, we felt particularly nervous about buying a home in the surreal Bay Area real estate market. We’d never searched for a home to buy, applied for a mortgage loan or made an offer on a house, and here we were trying to buy a home in a very hot market with multiple offers on properties. Anita was absolutely fabulous to work with. She understood that we were inexperienced and that we had a lot of questions about the home-buying process. She was very patient with us and was always reassuring about our concerns. Anita made every effort to simplify the process and she has been a great support for us after the closing as well. We are amazed and delighted to find ourselves in a sweet home! We heartily recommend working with her!"

Anita will take you to places she has looked at that might fit your vision, giving you her time and experienced insights.  She is friendly, caring and smart, and will represent your best interests to get you the home you desire.  I recommend her to you and to anyone who likes to have the personal attention and the information needed in finding a great home."

—M. Geminder  

"Shortly after meeting Anita, I knew she was the right real estate agent to sell my house. Words I would use to describe Anita? Sincere, friendly, hardworking, and efficient -- it's all true, really! Anita also knows the Temescal neighborhood very, very well. Anita has many contacts to help you get things prepared quickly and economically. Anita worked with me every step of the way while I was putting my house on the market. She is also a very personable and charming person- exactly the type of person you want working with you on your house."
