Testimonials from our clients

“I’ve known Nancy and Paul personally since they joined Alain Pinel Realtors in 2004. During their time with our firm, they have maintained the highest level of integrity and honesty in their dealings with their clients and have been among the top people in their office in terms of sales production. I knew Nancy before she joined Alain Pinel Realtors when she worked at another quality real estate firm and her reputation there was impeccable. They are pro’s and we a re please to have them associated with our firm.”

Larry Knapp, President

We sold our home in San Francisco last year and went looking for a home on the Peninsula. We looked in San Mateo, Hillsborough, and Burlingame. We were referred to Nancy by a friend who had used her for a couple of transactions previously. Nancy did an incredible job for us. In this day and age where you can use the MLS and almost feel like you don't need to use a real estate agent, because you find properties almost as fast as most agents, Nancy added real value. In fact, the home that we bought (which was on the MLS), we were only able to buy because of Nancy finding out early about a price reduction which brought the home into our price range. She moved so quickly that we made the offer and had it accepted in 24 hours. Right after the acceptance the owners received a handful of other people who wanted to offer on it based on the price reduction. Nancy is just so on top of things she gives you an advantage over other agents making you more competitive in securing a home. Nancy has lived on the Peninsula her whole life, so if you're looking in this area she is totally knowledgeable. I'll also add that she loves her job. She happily drove me around for months to look at almost 100 houses before we found the right home.

“I have no hesitation in recommending Nancy and Paul to others: indeed we often have. In 1996, Nancy worked very hard to understand what we were looking for in a new home. She understood before we did, actually. The house we quickly found for us was unique; so much so that she also fell in love with it. Because of Nancy and Paul, our buying adventure was a rapid, fun experience. Since 1996, they have consistently and faithfully kept in touch with us, providing up-to-date real estate information.”
