Client Testimonials

We call Hope "The Dream Maker" at our house. After a 4 year out-of-state stint my wife and I came back to the Bay Area terrified of the price of housing. She said to stretch a bit and she was right. Three years and one child later Hope made the impossible happen again by finding us an eager and flexible buyer for our house while locating a bigger house in a better school district all within a 4-day stretch. Twelve months into the new house Hope is always available for questions or advice on remodeling even though we may never move again.

I met Hope at an open house in 2001 while visiting from Chicago. Across the miles, she helped me find a home that I loved and counseled me throughout the process. I was a first-time home buyer, and Hope took extra time with me during every visit to educate and reassure me; it was exactly what I needed. After moving into the property, Hope was available for renovation and design advice, which was extremely helpful. When the time came to sell my home, Hope was supportive every step of the way. She supervised repairs and went above and beyond my expectations as both a Realtor® and a friend. Mostly because of her savvy advice and foresight, the house sold for a price considerably above my expectations. I do not believe this would have been possible without Hope Broderick and am extremely appreciative of her enthusiasm, honest character, and tremendous work ethic. Hope is a tremendous Realtor® and an outstanding friend - thank you.

We have always turned to Hope’s expertise when selling our homes. In fact we’ve never considered hiring any other Realtor®. Her experience and knowledge of the real estate market make her a valuable asset to home sellers and buyers. Her energy is infectious and her market awareness is always right on the money. She helped us turn average homes into spectacular homes with her keen sense of design, which has resulted in a faster sale and a greater profit. She has an incredible work ethic and an excellent reputation among her peers as an exceptionally professional Realtor®, we personally have loved working with Hope and recommend her to all our friends and family.

We strongly believe we wouldn’t be in our house if it weren’t for Hope. Hope’s offer strategy and personal approach to the buying process provided us the most attractive offer to the seller. Additionally, Hope extended herself by helping us obtain estimates during the closing process for work we wanted done immediately after close due to our tight moving schedule. She was and continues to be a great resource for advice. She truly has her clients’ best interest in mind!

Hope is a “miracle worker”. After having our second child we were overwhelmed with the prospect of selling our home and buying a new house. We handed Hope the keys and watched our cluttered average house turn into a showcase. She handled designing, remodeling, packing, moving and selling our home for twice what other Realtors® had suggested. Simultaneously, she helped us purchase our new home which we won against 10 other offers and not at the highest price! We will be forever grateful to Hope for helping us obtain our dream home.

Working with Hope has been amazing. Other Realtors® didn’t “get” us — where we are in life, what our goals are, our style, our price range, etc. Hope did. She didn’t waste our time with houses that we didn’t like or in neighborhoods we weren’t interested in. She knows the area and she knew where to take us. And when we sold our first house, she guided us through the staging and selling process. We got over 15 serious offers on our house, and sold it for much more than we hoped for. And for buying our second home, her experience and relationships with other brokers was invaluable. And to top everything, she’s sweet, funny and charming.
