I bought two properties with Parisa in the last 5 years. Given the competitive landscape and never-changing seller's market, I never thought I could have bought two ideal properties that fit my situation perfectly. I just bought the second property in March and am still dumbfounded at the purchase. Parisa found both properties for me, even though I was actively looking for myself. Her reputation in the industry, professionalism, experience, and savvy business sense really helped to close the deals. What stood her apart is her listening skills and how she quickly learned what I liked. I think when we bidded on the price and succeeded, she was able to balance my sentiments (how much I am willing to bid) and market forces (what it takes to win the bid). I am very grateful for her partnership and highly recommend her.

We've been working with Parisa for one year while shopping for a house. Parisa was always available and helpful with all our requests. Her extensive experience and professionalism helped us navigate the market and understand it better. Recently Parisa helped buy our first house. She helped put the right offer for the right house, and was on top of everything, which allowed us to close the deal very fast. Parisa is, above all, a real pleasure to work with. We're very lucky to work with Parisa, and we very highly recommend her.

Parisa was a pleasure to work with. She knows the market well and her past experience as an appraiser gave us confidence in our understanding of market value when submitting offers. As a first time home buyer, I especially appreciated her responsiveness, availability, and supportive communication. She kept my husband and me informed throughout the closing, helping us understand the process and cheering us on throughout. If you're looking for a realtor in the Bay Area, I would 100% recommend Parisa.

Parisa helped me purchase my first ever home when I had no understanding of the market. She educated me on the entire process and opened my eyes to what really matters. She showed patience and empathy in understanding my expectations of a residence and advised me on how to adjust my goal to be feasible. Her exemplary professionalism and deep level of knowledge are of great value to anyone who wants to buy or sell a property. I will not doubt to go to her again for my next purchase.

It was a great experience working with you on the buying of the property at Oakland. Despite a short sale which takes time and cumbersome paperwork, you have made it so simple and smooth. You have done all the research, the comparison of the similar properties, and answer all the questions we raised. You were always available to show us the property even at the last minute's notice. You were honest and thorough. I felt you put our interest first. I will gladly recommend you as an agent. Thank you very much.

My husband and I were really excited to find Parisa Samimi. Parisa always brought an upbeat positive energy to our home search even when we had seen what felt like our 1000th home. Even though we had a long house hunt Parisa never seemed annoyed or frustrated. It was clear to us that Parisa genuinely wanted to help us find the home that was the right fit for us. When we finally found the right home for us we knew we wanted to do a pre-inspection to enable us to put in a stronger offer without any contingencies. Based on the bidding climate Parisa helped us come up with an offer amount we felt good about. When we learned that there was another offer on the table that was slightly higher than ours but with contingencies, Parisa guided us through our decision not to raise our amount. She never pushed us to go higher even though this definitely would have increased her chances of getting a commission through this deal. It’s clear in addition to being exceptionally competent, professional, and hardworking she takes tremendous pride and joy in helping her clients find the right home. We feel very lucky to have worked with Parisa!

Finding a home is a difficult process and even more difficult in the competitive Bay Area market where you are often competing against multiple buyers. Having a great realtor is paramount. Parisa made this difficult process bearable, fun even. She took the time to learn our tastes and preferences in homes and neighborhoods, constantly tailoring her searches accordingly. We never felt rushed or that we were taking up her time, even though our home search took several months. Parisa was there every day peppering our inbox with suitable properties, scheduling visits and ultimately getting us to our goal of buying a house. Her experience as an appraiser was critical to understanding what price the home would actually sell for. More than anything though, Parisa has a wealth of experience in the East Bay (particularly helpful was her expertise in our area of interest - Rockridge and Berkeley) and deep relationships with other agents in the area. It was the quality of her relationship with the selling agent that helped us win in a large pool of offers, in spite of not being an all-cash offer. In short, I would highly recommend Parisa and cannot articulate enough how happy we were with the overall experience.

We met Parisa when she showed us what she could do selling our El Cerrito home - 5 years ago! Of ALL the agents who visited us, Parisa was the most prepared and professional. She had created a presentation that was comprehensive and very well bound and presented. Then, with no assurance of business, in a very classy way, stayed in touch with us over the years. When it came time to sell our home, there was simply no other choice. We asked Parisa to handle the sale, and were not disappointed. It was an exceptional experience. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Great experience with Parisa, she understood what I was looking for immediately and she was very helpful during the house hunt, driving me to places, asking all the questions I didn't even know to ask. I'm a first time home buyer, I had a lot of questions and doubts and Parisa walked me through the whole process patiently and always cheerful. I started looking for a house, great prospects but my offers kept falling short, Parisa helped me switch focus on a condo to improve my chances. Bay Area is a very competitive market, even for condos, and she vouched for me with every agent and every lender until I got my condo. I'm really happy with my purchase and whenever I'm ready to finally make the jump to a house I will look forward to working with her again.

I had a great experience with Parisa and her team. At the beginning, Parisa went away for vacation and she asked two of her co-workers, Hendra and Michele, to help us in the meantime. They were very helpful and would show the houses we were interested in during the week days and weekends alike. Neither Parisa nor her teammates were pushy. When I decided to have a break in the house hunt, I felt relaxed. When later on I decided to resume my hunt, Parisa and her team were once again quite helpful. The first few houses I was out bid, because I was not comfortable with higher bids, ignoring Parisa's recommendation. Finally, at the last one, I got the house. I am quite happy that I got the house at the location that I wanted, thanks to Parisa's setting up the email list for the neighborhood.
