Keller Williams Benchmark Properties

Guys be careful with the agents over here. KW might be good but not all the agents may not be good.
Very bad experience. Agent I spoke to in Commercial division, did not say what it is on the phone even after asking him multiple times and asked me to come to office. when I went to his office, he disrespected and insulted me. He left the Conf. room while we were still talking and before I left the room and the office.

I was amazed at how knowledgeable and accommodating most all the agents are at Keller Williams.
RicK Geha is truly amazing in his knowledge of the Fremont real estate market. I was very pleased that he had at the tip of his fingers all the detailed information most every time I asked about Schools, public transportation for my children and best values for purchase.
I am very pleased with his performance and highly recommend him to any one moving into the area who need advice and guidance in the real estate market.
My family and friends will be confident and comfortable for years to come when working with Rick.
I was very please to find out after meeting and working with Rick that thousand of other real estate agents go to him for training, advice and guidance when working with their clients. I am happy we can go strait to the source for real estate questions.

Tony Doot is the man! If you want someone who is reliable, honest, straight to the point and very knowledgeable about the Bay Area market then you have to select Tony as your agent. He was great for us and our family to find a home in the ultra competitive Fremont market. He went out of his way to show homes at night, weekends and pretty much found a way to get on our schedule. We had two little kids and mom with us on the house hunt and Tony was very patient throughout the whole process. He also negotiated and got us the type of house we wanted for our family in our price range. Would definitely recommend Tony.

I would like to retract my prior review and sincerely apologize to Vikki Vincenzi. She is very talented and professional, and forgiving. Vikki will always go above and beyond to give you great customer service.

Tony Doot is the best! We started looking in the beginning of february, and we are now holding the keys to our home in April. Tony has gone above and beyond the duties of a realtor. He listens to what you are looking for and helps you get all of the things on your wish list in a home. He knows this bay area like the back of his hand and most importantly, he knows the ins and outs of the negotiating and purchasing process. He is helpful, honest and knowledgable. I could go on and on but trust me on this, if you choose Tony as your realtor, you will not regret it.

Corrine Horvath is an excellent realtor. For a first time home buyer, I had no idea what I was doing or where to begin. Corrine was calm, patient and understanding. She took the time to explain to me how purchasing a home works. She explained all of the real estate vocabulary, she wrote me an offer the seller couldn’t resist and was overall a huge support.
Buying a home can make you feel nervous and afraid, especially if it is your first time. But, Corrine took it slow with me and showed me properties within my price range and met the criteria on my wish list. She made my dreams come true, and for that I am thankful.
I highly recommend this professional, smart and business savvy realtor to any one who is inexperienced in the real estate market because she really takes the time an has your best interests at heart.

We had the pleasure of having Vicki Witt for our agent. Over the course of more than a year she was always on top of everything in a very difficult search for the best home for us. We were pressed by our budget and multiple offers that we’re declined yet she kept a positive attitude and thoroughness in keeping the process going to find our perfect home. When our offer was finally accepted and we grew impatient at the pace of this short sale, Vicki kept us focused and positive until the bank ultimately came back with a proposed closing in two weeks. Because Vicki was so well versed in the documentation process she was able to guide us through the closing with a serene attitude as our frustrations bubbled. Without her demeanor and expertise we could easily have given up, but she was so on top of everything we were able to close on a Friday and move in on Sunday morning. She was our first guest that Sunday night! We cannot recommend Vicki enough and encourage any and all prospective clients to enlist her in the quest for the perfect home. She was our guiding angel through the most difficult search and purchase that we have ever experienced…

Gina and Bocage team helped me purchase an investment property. They are detail oriented, fast responding, and willing to go extra-​miles to ensure customer satisfaction. I truly enjoyed working with them. I recommend them highly.

Jeff Li helped me find and close on a new home after several months of searching for the right one. A family friend introduced us and I am glad. Jeff was very helpful and available during the entire process. He was highly engaged with myself and the seller and their agent. I was always in the loop and knew what the next steps would be. This was my first house so I naturally felt inexperience in the market. However, working with Jeff I was confident I was getting taken care of and felt I did not have to worry. I ended up purchasing the home as is, and after escrow closed Jeff remained in contact and helped me with several things in the house that required fixing. I highly recommend Jeff for anyone looking to buy a new home.

Me and my husband had the pleasure to work with Ron Nasir twice in the last four years an both times he has been wonderful!!! He made the buying/​selling process easy for us and really worked hard to get us our home. Any questions we had he was always there to answer for us. I really appreciate all his help.
He really listens to what his clients want/​need and he does his best to sell/​buy properties. He works well with both parties and tries to find out what buyer/​seller wants in order to get offer accepted.
I would highly recommend Ron to anyone who wants a fun easygoing and truly understanding/​hardworking realtor, keep up the great work 5 stars!

I can’t say enough good things about Ron Nasir. He was great to work with through every step of the process.
In particular he did an amazing job once we found a house we wanted to try to buy. There were several offers and we didn’t submit the best one but our offer was accepted because of his work. He gave us great advice about how to present our offer and his professionalism convinced the seller’s realtor that it would be best to work with him. We would not have our home right now if it wasn’t for Ron.
I also appreciate his responsiveness even after the sale was completed. I was impressed by his knowledge of home construction and repair. He continued to answer questions and helped find contractors and other services we needed as we prepared to move in.
I highly recommend working with Ron. Buying a home can be stressful and it provided great peace of mind working with someone who is knowledgeable, professional, and trustworthy.

If you’re looking to offload your home via Short Sale, Ron Nasir is the man to call. After being turned down by 2 realtors who felt my house was a lost cause, Ron came to the rescue! He hung in there with me through all the Wells Fargo’s hoops and sold the house! 5 star service.

Fran Hoang at Keller Williams Benchmark Properties was my RE agent for both the sale and purchase of my new home.
These are the reason for which I would highly recommend her.
1) Expertise — Fran was extremely professional and has a wealth of knowledge pertaining to current RE laws and city ordinances. It’s no wonder she was awarded the «Five Star Real Estate Agent» in the Diablo Magazine, October, 2012.
2) Responsiveness — Fran was reliable and responded quickly either via text, email, or phone calls to provide me with essential information that made my home sale and purchase move quickly and smoothly.
3) Candidness — While maintaining a level of professionalism, Fran was candid with her opinions when she felt it would benefit me, and I truly appreciated this level of honesty!
4) Sincerity — Fran was sincere in her commitment towards finding not just any house, but the perfect home for me and my family! Despite having a healthy list of clients, she made us feel as though we were her only priority.
5) Success — Fran successfully sold our home in August 2012. She then arranged for us to «rent-​back» from the new owner while searching for our next home. She finally completed the transactions for close of escrow on the purchase of our new home by Sep. 2012. Quick turn-​around and smooth transition from one home to the next. That’s AMAZING success!
I could write more but know that most of us have busy lives and no desire to read long-​winded testimonials. If you recognize that selling and buying a house can be a very emotional experience, let me reassure you that Fran can minimize the stress for you. We can’t thank her enough for the relatively smooth transactions and the purchase of our dream home!

We worked with JANKI PATEL to find our first home. What we went through in the process was terrible for any home buyer, but for especially a first time home buyer. And at that time, if you want anyone on your side helping you, then it is Janki Patel !
She helped us throughout the entire process. We saw few houses together but she listened to our needs and quickly understood them to show us the perfect home for us. The process was long, or at least it felt like for newbie home buyer! But she stayed in contact throughout the entire process, phone calls, emails, texts. She went above and beyond her job duties to help us make the right decision. We got into a tricky situation with the lender. Janki stepped up and fought for us with the lender. She helped us negotiate with the seller, help with all the home inspections/​repairs. She made sure that we stuck with the original timeline of the contract to get things done on time and don’t incur additional charges. After a long process, we were able to close on time and get most things done on our terms — and we couldn’t have done it without Janki’s help.
So if you want a serious realtor who truly works for you, call Janki Patel. You won’t regret it.

Tony Doot is the man you want as your realtor. No joke. Tony helped my husband and I start looking for our home in August 2010 and we got our keys for it in October 2010! The reason we found our house so quickly is because Tony helped us look for homes nonstop. Tony emailed listings to us every day and even took us to look at homes after 6pm because Neil and I both had work and we were getting married in September. Seriously, this guy is awesome.
Even MONTHS after we moved in, Tony still sends us emails every once in a while to make sure all is well and we still love our house. One time, we had a plumbing issue and as first time homeowners, we didn’t really know what to do or who to call. (With a newborn baby girl at home, i really didn’t have the energy to scour the phone book). My husband emailed Tony and he actually drove over to look at the issue and gave us a number to call for help. Pretty amazing, right? We are so lucky Tony was our realtor, he really knows how to go above and beyond the typical job of a realtor. Call and ask for Tony, you won’t regret it!

I contacted Ricky in April of 2011 letting him know that I would like to start looking for a place of my own soon, however I told him that there might be a few obstacles that we’d have to go through to see if I’d qualify for a loan. Initially, I was going down the route of an FHA loan, he directed me to one of his colleagues and I later found out I wouldn’t qualify and that I’d have to wait for a year. Ricky told me he’d check in with me in 6 months to see how things were going.
In November somethings changed and I decided that I would go with a conventional loan, which means I didn’t have to wait the 1 year period. Ricky put me in contact with Dan and got me pre-​approved. We then started looking for a place.
After several weekends of going to city to city and a variety of different complexes, (Ricky couldn’t come with me some weekends and had his colleague Nicole show me around when he couldn’t)I finally found the one I was willing to put a offer down on.
After a month of negotiations (because the seller’s agent would only get back to us once a week), the seller finally gave a counter I couldn’t refuse. I thought it’d be smooth sailing after that. However we ran into a couple of unforseen issues that I guess might have scared a few people away, but i know a good deal when I see one! lol. So I patiently waited and with Ricky and Nicole’s help they guided me through the whole process from start to finish and I couldn’t have done it without them! They even acted as a the «Sellers Agent», as the agent for the seller was unresponsive, didn’t fill out forms right (or even at all), and left them up to Ricky or Nicole to figure out. I am forever thankful for all the work they have done for me!
I highly recommend Ricky or Nicole if you are looking for a new home or even an investment property. I will definitely be using them on my next venture!

They’re awesome to talk with. I had a plan to purchase a house around 380,000USD. And Hans helps me out a lot, he did a lot of research at the market. And finally I’ve got a really nice house with a really neat price under 380,000USD. He and his team are definitely the ones you can count on.

Tony Doot is fantastic. He helped me and my boyfriend buy our first home and the process was a bit of a nightmare because it was a short sale, but Tony kept me sane. He did everything he could to speed things along. He never got sick of my incessant emails and was such a joy to work with. I wish I could do more to thank him besides just a Unilocal review, but unfortunately this is all we can afford!

Too bad Unilocal only allows 5 stars, because Fran Hoang at the Fremont Keller Williams deserves 10+ stars!!!
After one long year of looking for our first home, we finally found «THE-​ONE» thanks to Fran. Bear with me since I have A LOT to say about her and the service she provided my wife and I.
I’ve known Fran and the team that she has worked with for over 5 years, and when it came time for my wife and I to look for our first home, it was a no brainer but to contact the Enko Team. Fran was going to take the reigns and guide us into a journey that we couldn’t have imagined was going to play out the way it did. She first took time to understand what type of people we were, our needs, wants, expectations, etc. and then we figured out how often we wanted to hear from her with new listings and her other findings. From the list of listings she would send us, we selected a couple that we wanted to see and scheduled a time to view these properties. We met at the KW office and away we went getting chauffeured around Fremont, Newark, and Union City. After that appointment/​showing, Fran basically had a better idea of what we were really looking for. She recommended websites that I could view that listed new listings if I got bored at work. We found out this worked out the best for us. We were able to view listings online, and if anything caught our attention, we’d contact her and she would show it to us. Pretty convenient since I’m on the computer all day for work. She went even as far as picking up my wife at home and driving her to me at different properties on my way home from work! Through the entire year, we found what we «thought» would be homes to make offers on, but Fran knew exactly what we wanted and recommended other wise. It was totally our decision, but she was good at bringing up some very valid points, and we valued her honesty. We built a trust and a relationship with her and we always asked for her honest opinion. Her main thing was that she didn’t want us buying a house that we weren’t 100% happy with.
Fast forward to the house we just moved in to… We went into contract on a short sale property in February, and now its the end of May. They should really call short sales a long sale! JEEZ! Anyways, Fran gave us weekly updates letting us know details about the banks and what the listing agents were doing to get the process to move forward. In the end, the bank wanted more money from the seller which wasn’t going to happen at that point. Fran decided to give up a percentage of her commission just to get the ball rolling!!! Once we got the bank’s approval, we ordered inspections, signed more docs, and before we knew it, we had the opportunity to close before our expected date! The day we received the keys was like a celebration for all of us.
She’s been EXTREMELY patient with us, and we can’t thank her enough! One thing we thought that was very convenient through this entire process was Fran’s accessibility. She was available via phone, text, email, and g-​chat… a constant open line of communication = WINNING! Not only do we have a realtor for life, we’ve gained an awesome friend in the process! Thank you SOOOO much for being a part of our lives and getting us into our first home to begin this new chapter of life!
Looking to buy or sell a home? DEFINITELY contact Fran Hoang for all of your real estate needs! SERIOUSLY!!!

We bought a home in the mission area of Fremont through Coco Lewis around 18 months ago, and are very satisfied.
Coco is a very professional, no-​nonsense realtor, while being warm and personable.
When we move to our next house (might be awhile), we’ll definitely work with Coco again.
