Testimonials

When we decided to retire and purchase our forever dream home on San Francisco Bay we connected with Suzie Koide through a referral. We are very pleased with the result, and with the help and guidance, we received from Suzie. Our purchase was challenging because we wanted perfect, availability was low, and then in March 2020, the Coronavirus came barreling in. Fortunately, Suzie was able to complete the purchase during the Quarantine as services shrunk and curtailed, making extensive use of Docusign and phone calls at all hours. Suzie has the ideal combination of patience and tenacity that was needed both to help us find the right house and close the deal. Suzie knows the market well, has good contacts both in real estate and in the skilled trades, and she had the wisdom and understanding to guide us to a sound investment that we are very happy with. Suzie powered us through all the inspections and hiccups and with patience and tenacity, backed by a strong company, and we wouldn’t be living in our dream home now without her skill.

I had the pleasure to work with Susan on several occasions while working at Foster’s Wine Estates. Susan is dedicated to proving both internal and external outstanding customer service. Expressed a very creative, outside the box and ‘never take no for an answer’ acumen. As a regional sales executive, she was very diligent with customer follow-up and had great patience while working with the client. I also worked with Susan on the launch of the Estates Wine Group division that focused on ultra-luxury brands within the portfolio. Her talents proved invaluable in customer acquisition, distribution management, and organizational structure managing the ultimate double-digit growth year one.

My wife and I were extremely fortunate to have Susan as our buying agent. Getting into the hyper-competitive Bay Area housing market to buy our home was an intimidating prospect. Susan stuck with us for over two and half years and several bidding wars. Once we found the house we wanted, Susan worked magic with helping prepare the offer and recommending a broker that could seal the deal. Susan is very patient and knowledgeable, and she always had time for us when we had questions or concerns about the process. She constantly followed up on items and helped us stay on track, along with the bank and seller. We’d highly recommend Susan to anyone looking to buy.

Susan Koide worked above and beyond all my expectations! She was efficient, prompt, comprehensive in her research and communications. She kept all involved (5) up to date on proceedings in a clear positive manner. There were instances where everything could have gone South and she kept us all on the same page. I would again engage Susan Koide if I was to buy or sell any property in the future! Thank you, Susan Koide, for your superior qualifications, skills and for getting us wonderful buyers! You are the greatest!

Suzie Koide was an absolute pleasure to work with as our buyer’s agent. She was instrumental in helping us find the perfect place in Point Richmond for my 88-year-old mother. Suzie is amazingly knowledgeable throughout all aspects of a real estate transaction, supremely patient with a keen eye for detail. Suzie is by far the best real estate agent I have ever worked with on either coast. I wholeheartedly recommend Suzie Koide for any real estate transaction and plan to use her when we sell and buy our next place.

I had wanted to invest my IRA in Real Estate for over a year but wasn’t sure how to. Then I met Suzie who had done the same with her IRA and she was a Realtor to boot. She helped guide me through the steps, made it easier than I thought it would be, and we had fun. Now I have an income property paying my retirement $500/mo tax-free! Thank you, Suzie, for giving me the confidence to lean into securing my financial freedom and for all of your support along the way!
