TESTIMONIALS

Working with Julia from Keller Williams has been a real pleasure. From the first meeting my wife and I could tell she was the realtor of choice. Even at the first meeting when we had not signed any agreement she showed up with a complete package of comps for the neighborhood, a time timeline she would follow from prep through staging an open house. Her communication with us was excellent through the complete process all the way through the close of escrow yesterday. I would highly recommend meeting with her if you are looking to buy or sell. I have no doubt that your experience will be as rewarding as ours.

We had the pleasure of working with Julia as our realtor during our search for a dream home in the highly competitive California housing market, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. Julia's friendly demeanor immediately put us at ease, and her diligence and analytical approach truly set her apart. From the very beginning, Julia was incredibly easy to work with, always available to answer questions and address any concerns we had. She took the time to understand our needs and preferences, and her attention to detail ensured that no stone was left unturned in our search. Despite the challenges of the market, Julia remained dedicated and focused, guiding us through every step of the process with professionalism and expertise. Thanks to her hard work and expertise, we found the perfect home in record time. We can't recommend Julia highly enough. If you're looking for a realtor who is friendly, diligent, analytical, and easy to work with, look no further than Julia. She's simply the best!

We started looking for a home before pandemic. While the home searching was never easy in the Bay Area (not to mention the buying process), we connected with Julia in 2022 to hunt for a place in Alameda, San Ramon, and Pleasanton.

Julia was very professional throughout the process. She patiently explained the details with us, since she understood that we were the first-time buyer. While the buying process was VERY stressful, she set up the timeline and expectation well.

Once we set up the budget limit with her, she found a few reasonable listings so that we were able to evaluate the pros and cons across several conditions. She carefully listened to what we liked or disliked, and updated the list within days.

In the later phase of home purchase, she went through all the house conditions with the disclosure documents. She was laser focused and answered our questions in details. Not only she offered quick turn-around time for documentation, but also she negotiated with the seller agent! She did not push for a high number! Instead, she focused on what we needed.

We much appreciated her efforts and due diligent, so that we were able to close our deal in a month! And we were very excited to move in soon! I highly recommend working with Julia based on our experience.

Soo Jung Julia and her great team are FANTASTIC!!! They made the selling process so easy and helped us understand what was happening every step of the way. She went above and beyond to help us during every stage of the process. We found she is knowledgeable, professional, and dedicated to helping us selling our home. She was always available to answer any questions we had throughout the process. We couldn’t be more happy with the service we received from Julia and will definitely recommend her to everyone we know!

I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for her sincere help in providing accurate information. She is an agent who excels in finding what the customer needs. I wish her continued success.

Julia is definitely the right agent to work with if you are a first home buyer.

When I started searching for a home in mid 2021, I was considering buying a house in Solano County (Benicia, Suisan City, Fairfield). Despite Solano County wasn’t her usual service area, she was willing to work with me, which was very generous of her.
Due to the inclined interest rates, I paused looking a home in early 2022. Julia understood my frustration and patiently waited until I was ready to move forward again. In the mean time, she kept in touch with me and helped me stay up-to-date with the most recent market trend.

When I finally resumed looking for a home in mid 2022, Julia worked with a very professional manner. Whenever there was a house that I was interested, I shared it with Julia and she contacted seller agents immediately. I was very satisfied how responsive she was throughout this journey. Once the escrow was open, she was involved in all aspects of the closing - helped me set up with home inspections, house repairs, an loan officer, an escrow company, and more. If she didn’t help me with any of those, I would’ve been so lost as the first home buyer. I sincerely appreciated all her hard work she had done for me. She made my first home buying experience easy and smooth. I can sense that she truly cares about her clients because she continued to keep in touch and checked on me months after my escrow was closed.

Overall I truthfully enjoyed working with her and will definitely work with her again in the foreseeable future.

I am so happy to work with SooJung(Julia) Kim to purchase my condo in Foster City.
Based on my experience, many agencies don’t pay attention to clients’ needs and just focus on buying/selling any housing rather than working in the best interest of clients. But SooJung is very patient and tries to understand what I was looking for and what values were most important. She works truly for client’s interest.
She is extremely knowledgeable in markets and strategies to make sure that my offer was attractive to sellers. That means that she is not only considering the price but also other terms that all sellers like. My offer was accepted in the reasonable price and terms to make sure that I and the seller were satisfied. Importantly, I got a condo that I most wanted!! I think it is extremely important to work with the agency like SooJung (Julia) in the current crazy housing market.
I am very lucky to work with SooJung (Julia). I highly recommend working with her. She is the best agency!

Buying house in Seller's market is not easy work, but we could complete it with Julia's guidance in two months. Catching our preference, Insight to find potential houses, Diligent market update and inventories, Explanations of PROS/CONS of houses, Prompt communications to Seller's agent, Excellent Skills on offering, Seamless follow-ups,.... You may not experience this kind of professional service and it makes you so happy during hunting house.

We worked with Julia for about 4-5 months and throughout this journey, Julia has showed more than 30 homes very patiently and written multiple offers representing us. She gathered all our requirements and added suggestions and gave us lot of freedom to decide about the price and the home (while she is providing pros and cons of the property). She is very professional and very organized. She has extensive knowledge about the tai-valley and the neighboring areas. She is very clear in her communication and very prompt. Our journey with Julia was a very smooth ride. I would definitely recommend Julia and would love to work with her in the future.

We recently purchased a single family home in San Carlos, and Soo (Julia) Kim was our realtor. Overall, we are very happy with Soo’s excellent service and we would like to give her the highest possible rating. Here are some details: 1. We started searching for a single family house in the Bay Area from February (2021) and it took almost 10 months to finally purchase a house we liked. All this time Soo (Julia) patiently supported us by providing timely updates on listings, disclosures for the houses we liked, and target offer price for each. She was quite diligent in estimating a good offer price by comparing nearby sales in the recent weeks for similar homes (in terms of sq. ft, upgrade, location, etc). In most cases her estimate was within striking distance of the final winning bid. 2. When we started searching for a house back in Feb there were no open houses due to Covid restrictions. To see a house one had to be accompanied by a realtor. Soo (Julia) drove all the way from her location (in east bay) to whichever houses we wanted to see during this time. We much appreciate her time and service. 3. For each of the houses we made an offer, Soo (Julia) thoroughly went over the disclosures and informed us about any potential issues or repairs that we should consider. 4. Soo (Julia) never pushed us into making exorbitant offer to any house. In fact, we remember, we were hesitating to make an offer to a house and Soo clearly told us not to make an offer under hesitation. 5. Before making any offer Soo (Julia) thoroughly went over our finance pre-approval and communicated with our loan agent. We went in fully prepared. 6. When we eventually purchased a house of our liking Soo (Julia) ensured all the steps/processes were followed without any headache. The purchase and closing was without any hassle, thanks to Soo and our loan agent. Again, we give the highest possible rating to Soo (Julia) Kim. We wish her much success in her career as a realtor. If ever in the future we consider buying a house we certainly would like to hire her as our realtor.

We had an opportunity to buy our first home with Julia representing us. She is a thorough professional and walked us through the home buying process meticulously. She is very knowledgeable, especially in the tri-valley area, and never rushes you to put down an offer, and clearly walks you through the pros & cons of a property, especially in this competitive market. We are glad we won our first bid and would highly recommend Julia and will definitely work with her in the future.

We worked with Julia to buy our new home and the entire journey was absolutely delightful. Julia was very patient. She listened to all our requirements and suggested homes based on that. She was very punctual and professional. She was with us during each and every step, guiding us through the entire process. As we were first time home buyers, she made us feel that no question is a silly question and very patiently addressed all our concerns and questions. She always provided valuable inputs with regard to every house we looked which helped us to make a well informed decision. We would strongly recommend working with her.

Julia Kim was the agent for the house we sold this month. She was always prepared for the coming steps we need to take for selling the house. She explained everything in a way that was easy to understand. She guided us from the first step for smooth flow to the final closing step. She was always available for answering questions. She was not talkative, but always told us what to do to present my house better looking to the buyers. She was intelligent, courteous, always helpful, open, transparent, and reliable through the entire process. We can feel that she really cared about us and understand what we want in every decision-making process. Keller Williams is the best company I have ever dealt with. They did an excellent job for picture and video presentations which helped tremendously in selling my house. We were very much satisfied with what she and her company did for us and we were very happy to have Julia as our agent.

I worked with her for selling our previous home in Pleasant Hill, CA and buying a new one in Albany, CA, during the challenging times in 2020. Soo Jung is professional, knowledgeable, nice, friendly and communicative. Really satisfied with and appreciate all she had done in the process. Highly recommended.

We found Julia through another agent. Ms.Julia Kim is a very responsible and organized real estate professional. She is on time for her meetings and always responds to her clients as soon as she can. We found a place in San Jose that we really like. Julia helped us with the entire process of buying. We learned a lot from her and she was very much willing to share her knowledge and experiences with us. We really enjoyed working with her and appreciate her hard work a lot. We would like to recommend her to anyone who needs help. She is the one you should hire!

Soo Jung was the agent when I purchased a home in Tracy last January. She was patient, transparent, and reliable through the whole process. She understood my needs, continuously provided truthful information even if I had to paused the process for a while, and eventually lead me to buy the house that satisfied my needs. She is responsive and thorough. I will definitely work with her again when I need a realtor.

Julia was wonderful to work with and helped us find our forever home for a great price, literally a steal! This was my first time buying a property and she made the process easy and did a great job explaining everything to me and my husband. I felt like she understood what we were looking for and connected us to appropriate listings. She was also on top of new house coming onto the market so we were able to be aggressive buyers which is necessary in this market. When we placed a bid on our home, she was helpful in knowing what price to offer according to the area’s property values and the condition of the house. She was knowledgeable with the financial process. We were working with Wellsfargo for our home loan but the person we were working with was unable to close in the 30 day period. Julia actually had other Wellsfargo banker contact that was able to process our loan faster. This allowed us to made a more competitive bid. Julia also did a lot of work during the escrow period: found multiple inspection companies and checked cost/appointment times available for them. She managed all the communication with the seller, who had delays/requests. Because of her work with a foundation inspection, we got additional money off the cost of our house. I would highly recommend Julia because she is knowledgeable, diligent, and an over sweet kind person. She will help you find what your looking for!

Julia is highly professional, knowledgeable and a caring Realtor. Her commitment to provide an excellent experience to her clients is outstanding. She is so pleasant to work with. She places her clients needs first and guides them well throughout the whole process. I would highly recommend Julia.

Soo Jung (Julia) is very patient in explaining the home buying process. She also helped us find a good lender for getting pre-approvals and loans at a very good rate. She puts extra time and effort into understanding our needs, interests, family priorities, and future goals to provide guidance. Her knowledge about bay area neighborhoods and schools helped us in making decisions quickly before writing an offer. She always gave us a very good market analysis before and after we go and look at home. She is very honest in giving feedback and doesn't hesitate to say if the home is overpriced or sometimes in a very bad condition which is a testament to her high integrity. Julia is also very tactical in writing offer terms, she does a lot of background work by looking at disclosures and home visual condition in advising offer terms. Julia is wonderful fun to work with as a realtor, I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell.

Julia is professional and very knowledgeable in her career and it was such a pleasure coaching and mentoring her through the years. She is such a kind-hearted woman and very passionate about her job with helping her clients and always have their best interest.

Julia is such a sweet person. She is very considerate and is very patient. Working with Julia is an easy process. She is very detailed oriented and loves her job and you can tell. She is very attentive to what you have to say.

Julia is solid, not only on her knowledge and competency for the real estate market and transaction processes, but because of her integrity, accountability, and professionalism towards her work and her clients. Julia is one of the great realtors I have worked with. She always puts the client's best interest as her top priority. With her dedication, she wins the trusts of her clients, colleagues, and partners. I highly recommend Julia as your realtor to meet your real estate objectives.
