Home Selling Process

" We had decided to sell our home and anticipated that this process could be made more challenging by the situations being created by Covid-19. We knew that we needed a realtor who could be creative in the face of changing conditions in the market. We chose Bryan because he embodied the kind of professionalism and adaptability that were important to us. Our results with Bryan exceeded our expectations by a huge margin. He gave us very valuable advice when it was needed. We took that advice, and he helped us field and evaluate offers, pick the optimal one, and sell our home in record time above asking price. No results can be guaranteed, but if you have Bryan in your corner, you'll have a better chance of getting the best results possible. My wife and I highly recommend Bryan Van Heusen. "

" I usually don’t write reviews, but I find Bryan worth a 5 star review! If you are nervous or confused about your property, you can be at ease with Bryan as your agent. He will work hard for you, even if his has multiple clients at the same time. He always finds time to meet up with you, return your calls, and replies to all emails quickly. He is very professional, personable and extremely patient with answering all our questions and concerns. His marketing strategy surpasses other agents that we had interviewed before signing with Bryan. As soon as Bryan became our agent, he made everything stress-free and transitions smooth. He always kept us updated and honest with the current market strategy. Most of all, we love his sincerity and his work ethics! We definitely recommend him & will love to work with him again on other property transactions. Thank you Bryan, we appreciated you and were happy to have met such a wonderful person that happens to be an exceptional realtor! :0) "

- Seller, Oakland

" Bryan and his team are BY FAR the best in the business. When we first met Bryan, we were interviewing him amongst other agents. He was the last one was sat down with and the difference between him and the others was night and day. What I found to be most impressive about him (something I've never forgotten) was his track record on selling homes that other agents had before him, but for some reason, could not sell. We're not talking one or two, but he has an entire list of properties with the data showing his results. Anyone who sees this will quickly understand that he is obviously doing something very different. We ended up hiring him that night and that was the start to our business relationship. Since that initial transaction, we called on Bryan to buy a property, to help a coworker sell her place, to help sell our parents home, to help a friend buy, and probably a couple others as well that I can't think of. And all of this without hesitation! Sometimes you get nervous referring someone out to family and friends for fear they could be a bad referral. I have never had these concerns with Bryan. He is very transparent and practical. He will not tell you want you want to hear, but rather what the truth is, then show you the data to back it up. This is a lesson everyone in the real estate field should learn. If you've sold a few homes, you know what I'm talking about. Bryan has not disappointed. Coming from someone that has used him and his team on multiple occasions, and sent countless referrals to him, he has consistently provided 5 star service. "

- Seller, Cambrian Park / San Jose

" Bryan is amazing! I knew from our first meeting he was the realtor to choose and was extremely pleased with everything he did. Great communication, knowledge of the market and savvy. Our house was listed and we accepted the offer in four days and at a record price in the neighborhood. Wish I could give 6 stars. "

- Arron ONeil

" It is great to work with Bryan. He is extremely responsive even after closing on the house. He is very professional, patient and would answer any question at almost any time of the day. He made the whole process for buying our first home a lot easier than expected. We highly recommend Bryan! "

- Sunyi Meng

" We were looking to buy a house in Bay Area and I must say we had the best buying experience, thanks to Bryan. He is so prompt with his responses, we never had to wait for over 5 mins! We had experiences with other agents too and had spoken to a couple of them - Bryan clearly stood out! He got us a great deal on mortgage through his lender that saved us $400 in monthly payments (this beat our pre-approvals from other lenders!). Bryan and his team, are all razor focused on outcomes and customer service. They also work with a great level of integrity. Never seen folks so committed to work. While we ran into some delays from seller on closing date, Bryan helped us through the process and also got us some freebies from the seller. We recommend working with Bryan to make your journey smooth. "

- Chit R.

" We worked with Bryan this past February (2021) to sell our house in San Leandro. We had a fantastic experience and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to sell in this area. We sold our home in quickly and easily with his help and guidance. Through the process, he was knowledgeable, responsive by phone or email, and he was a pleasure to work with with his cool and collected attitude. Our house sale was incredibly successful, and we are so grateful for his part in that process. "

- Josh McPaul

" Bryan is the best realtor nationwide, absolutely phenomenal. He is well versed in every aspect of both the selling and purchasing sides of real estate and made our first time experience as smooth as possible. He has vast expertise in the local market, roi, fantastic negotiation skills, and helped shave off valuable time from closing. He explained every step and simplified the complicated labyrinth of the back and of the of the process and deftly overcame whatever wrench was thrown in by the lender or the opposing side. In comparison, we went through a bunch of realtors who were primarily looking to make a quick commission and didn't fit the bill in client service - unreliable, lacking in business acumen, and unable to guide us properly. Thank heavens Bryan was the answer to our pleas and brought us the success and security we've been dreaming of! "

- Buyer, Santa Clara, 2023

" We had a wonderful experience working with Bryan as our realtor to sell our condominium home. We had to leave our home to move out of state, so we left everything in Bryan's hand to take care. Bryan took care of each and every thing personally, starting from inspecting the whole property, up to making it ready for listing. As our listing agent, Bryan did excellent work with strategizing, time to market, marketing and advertising to ensure maximum possible reach to the potential buyers, getting offers, and finally driving the whole process towards the closing. We would recommend Bryan as one of the best in the business. "

- Seller, Fremont, CA

" We have now sold 4 homes with Bryan as our realtor. Our most recent experience working together was a rental property we owned. We sat down and he gave us 2 options. Sell the home "as is" at X price, or do a little work and get 3-4X return on the cost of the remodel. We decided to do the latter. After 3 weeks, we were ready to go on market. He lined up everything seamlessly to where each day, as one person was leaving the home, the next person was showing up. The cleaners, then the stagers, then the inspectors, then the photographer, etc. Everything happened so quickly, I was waiting for a hiccup somewhere in the schedule, but it never came. Everything ran so smoothly. We were only on market for a few days, but that's all it took. We received a VERY aggressive offer that was higher than our expected target number. We already knew we were going to accept he offer, but Bryan thought we could squeeze a bit more out of the deal. He went back and negotiated for the buyers to take on certain closing costs that were typically paid for by the buyer! Who does that??I can't say enough about my experience over the years working with Bryan and his team. He has been consistent and on point each and every time. His ability to read the market and price property accurately is exceptional. With each transaction, he has given me a goal price for my home, and each time he's exceeded it. I have consistently referred him to my family and friends and many of them have left reviews for him here, as well. If you're looking for a real estate agent that is seasoned, honest, aggressive, and always puts his clients first... then CALL BRYAN! "

- Seller Multiple Occupancy Home, San Leandro

" Bryan Van Heusen from Legacy Real Estates & Associates – we found by searching the web for the best realtors in East bay and it was the last week of 2020 when we signed on as his clients. Once we signed on with Bryan, we knew this was a divine appointment. He was professional and detailed but also very understanding of our situation and funds availability. He helped us understand the market in Union City and gave us advice on what upgrades and improvements made sense and what would not really impress buyers. Our situation was little strange because we had to do all the work on our Union City home from Texas. But Bryan was right there to help us and when we ran short on funds to pay the contractors and property taxes, he stepped up to the plate for us. Bryan was an answer to prayer and took care of all these expenses for us. Bryan did this just to help us, even before our home even went on the market. And while we did worry about the delay in putting the house on the market because our contractor (who we hired ) took longer than expected. Even though we rejected the contractor Bryan brought us, he was such a great realtor and kept us calm and gave us confidence that everything will work out. Bryan staged the house and took care all small and big things for us and then got us an offer almost 100K above listing price. Bryan Van Heusen – is an amazing realtor and if you hired him you would be truly blessed. "

- Pamela I.

" I met with several realtors before meeting with Bryan. They all more or less said the same thing and it was very hard to differentiate everyone. After Bryan’s presentation, I knew I wanted to have him as my listing agent. I am extremely happy with that decision. The stager he works with made the home look amazing and the property sold in less than a week after listing. He always promptly answered my questions and was very professional throughout the process of selling my home. I highly recommend Bryan. "

- Yu Lin

" I would highly recommend Bryan with any real estate transaction. He is a great negotiator and is able to handle any complex situation. Best agent in the Bay Area! I had a great experience with him. I will definitely keep on working with him in my future projects. "

- John Maria Zarate

" Homeowners often complain about agent fees and how little their agent did for them in the sale or purchase of their home. Bryan went so far above and beyond for us that we simply could not have managed our home sale in a timely way with out him and his fantastic team. After making all of the arrangements to sell the house and to move across the country the unthinkable happened. We had a roof leak that damaged our hardwood floors, ceiling and wall. After getting a floor guy in and being told the wood needs to dry out for 5-6 weeks before being replaced, sanded and stained we called Bryan to say we would have to delay the sale (and start from scratch with our relocation plans). Bryan told us not to worry and that he would take care of supervising the floor repairs, providing a contractor to take care of any other damage and small jobs that needed to be done. When the work was complete he made sure it was up to his high standards before bringing in his stager. Finally, we had to have our internet service going to keep our alarm system intact and he even shipped the equipment back to our provider. Bryan is not only a great agent who got us top dollar for our home but a good, trustworthy person. Thank you Bryan! "

- Jackie G.

" Why does Bryan Van Heusen deserve my five-star rating and recommendation? With the expert guidance provided by Bryan, I sold for $1.5M(!) a house that I had paid $260K for! The process was painless and moved quickly; Bryan’s role was that of the quarterback, calling the plays and making it happen as he provided clear and concise information, coordinated a remodel with the contractor, arranged for inspections, was the liaison with the escrow company, and provided oversight and recommendations based on his experience in the field. I never had to wait long for him to answer a phone call, an email, or a text message. He was eager to help and solve problems. He was also aware that selling this particular house was emotionally charged for me because I had grown up in it and where I had lived with my late husband for over 20 years, so it held a lot of cherished memories and reminders of days gone by, my parents, my sisters, my marriage, my daughter, and my own childhood. Bryan was sensitive to my experience and honored me with patience, care and understanding. That speaks volumes about his character. That is why Bryan deserves a five-star rating (and your business!). "

- Judy A Echeandia

" After meeting Bryan, my wife and I knew immediately he would sell our home without any hassle. He made everything very easy and worry free, and even took care of any minor repairs needed. "

- Seller, Oakland

" We had considered moving to Oregon for over a year. When my son’s company gave the approval for him to move to Oregon, moving became a reality. Based upon the glowing reviews for Bryan we chose him to represent us in selling our Fremont home. Everything went as planned in spite of COVID19. We were unable to hold an open house because of the shelter-in-place order. Fortunately, the first couple that looked at our house gave us an offer. Bryan had a good relationship with the buyer’s agent. Things went as smoothly as possible during unprecedented circumstances. Our house closed on time and we are now in Oregon. Bryan is extraordinarily responsive. I called him my realtor/therapist. He would let me rant which was very much needed and appreciated. Bryan has a team that operates as a well-oiled machine. Considering this stressful time, Bryan helped by keeping things on track, having open lines of communication and simply getting things done. If you are looking for a professional, capable, take-charge realtor, look no further. If Bryan could sell my home during the pandemic, he can sell your home anytime. "

- K. Wilks

" I'm not a review writing kind of a person but I wanted to do this to express how happy & thankful we are that we got this opportunity to work with Bryan for selling my property. Since we had just concluded a deal for buying a new house and wanted a well planned, seamless and worry free experience to sell our old house, Bryan was a perfect partner to work with. Bryan is a seasoned professional, very patient, very thorough and a wonderful human being. Bryan laid out a very clear plan and marketing strategy for selling the property and followed through with executing his plan, keeping us informed at every step of the way on the progress he was making. It was such a pleasure working with Bryan and we HIGHLY RECOMMEND Bryan for selling/buying your property. Thank you so much Bryan for your 5 STAR service.. We definitely hope we will work again in future on a new project. "

- Parasverma

" I can happily recommend Bryan for anyone buying a house in the Bay Area. He was very knowledgeable throughout the process, quick to respond to all my questions, and able to make recommendations which made buying a house a smooth and less stressful experience for me. With Bryan as your realtor, you know you're getting top tier service and I definitely will use him again given the opportunity. "

- Ryan Jennings

" I found Bryan by conducting an online search for Bay Area Realtors. I took note of his glowing reviews and contacted him promptly. Upon reaching out, I advised him that I was out of state and my family needed to sell a Bay Area property ASAP. The sale was complex as it involved multiple parties and there were a lot of moving parts. The matter was time sensitive and urgent. Bryan was very courteous, knowledgeable, patient, and understanding. He carefully managed expectations, kept the family apprised of the process, and worked diligently. He got it done! I highly recommend Bryan for real estate needs! I look forward to working with him again in the future. "

- K. Walker

" I am extremely grateful for the outstanding support that Bryan provided during the process of purchasing my first home. His profound knowledge of the real estate market was evident, making the entire experience seem effortless. His professionalism throughout was truly remarkable, always addressing my inquiries promptly and ensuring a seamless journey. Beyond his expertise, his approachable and amiable demeanor made him a joy to work with. Bryan not only guided me through the complexities of home buying but also added a touch of enjoyment to the process. I extend my heartfelt thanks to him for going above and beyond, making my first home-buying experience truly exceptional. I highly recommend his services to anyone in search of an exceptional real estate agent. Thank you very much Bryan :) "

- Amin Fa

" Wow, I am very impressed with Bryan's work and professionalism. I highly recommend Bryan. He helped us get our home sale ready and sell our home quickly for top dollar. Truly, he did go above and beyond. He made the process simple and clear for us. During a time, that was busy for our family, he went the extra mile to make it easy and seemless. He is a top notch real estate agent that provided excellent service and real results. To boot, he sold our home, within days, and over asking "

- Robyn Eirich

" Bryan is deserving of all the 5 star reviews! I was trustee to an estate and completely new to the process of selling a house. Bryan made the process as easy and stress-free as possible, from the very beginning. He was incredibly genuine and honest, thoroughly explaining how he would market, renovate and stage the house. Bryan was always available to talk and answer questions and took control of cleaning, renovating, hauling, staging, etc. He did such an amazing job that the house sold within a week of being on the market, for 3% more than the listing price and 5% more than an identical home down the street that had sold just weeks before. At closing, when there was an issue with a fee that we had previously discussed would be included as part of his commission, he immediately responded and clarified the mistake with the title company. No questions asked. If you're looking for a realtor with the utmost expertise and authenticity, Bryan is your guy. I can't recommend him enough! "

- Ryan Teixeira

" Working with Bryan was an eye opening experience as a first time seller. His professionalism and flexibility has set the standard for any future real estate agents that I work with. Not only did he take the time to educate me on the process, what to expect, and why to expect (backed with data), but he also took the time to answer my questions (fueled by my own curiosity) on the real estate market which had nothing to do with selling my house. I can tell that he has great passion for real estate and service. I would not hesitate to recommend Bryan as an agent. "

- Louis Truong

" Bryan helped me purchase and sell my home. I truly enjoyed the experience of working with him. During my engagement, I found Bryan to be extremely responsive and trustworthy. There were many hurdles during the transaction but I always got a very objective point of view from him. In this real-estate business, it's hard to find someone of Bryan's skill, caliber, and temperament. I would highly recommend Bryan to anyone who wants to buy or sell his/her home. "

- Arifal Talib

" Bryan is an outstanding realtor! He's professional, responsive, helpful, well connected and extremely knowledgeable. He made the selling process so seamless and helped us sell our house at a high price in less than a week. His experience and guidance are immeasurable. We had to accomplish a total house remodel in order to sell and he was able to assist with this in order to get the house to market as quickly as possible. I would recommend Bryan to anyone who is looking for a realtor who understands the market and wants high level service. "

- Jen Miu

" A friend of mine recently sold her house and recommended Bryan to sell mine. My house had an offer within three days and 8 offers by 5 days. All way over asking. We had over 60 showings over the weekend and we were listed as the hot house to see. It was crazy but in a good way. I would highly recommend Bryan and I am extremely happy with my experience. "

- Kajun

" We were referred to Bryan by my brother and after interviewing him we knew within minutes he was our agent. He listed my Mom's property on 06/17/19 and was off the market by 6/25/19. The process was seamless, and my Mom's property went for well over asking price. Bryan's knowledge of real estate is top notch and he is driven to get the job done. We will be referring Bryan to all our friends and family. "

- KV Ravago

" I had the privilege working with Bryan on purchasing my first home. As you can imagine, it was very stressful understanding everything that is needed to purchase a home. Bryan was very patient, walked me thru each step, to ensure I wasn't overwhelmed by the entire process. Bryan was always professional, dedicated, and answers texts and phone calls within minutes with always a positive attitude (also on weekend and evenings). With every communication, you can tell he's very passionate about his craft. He took the time to walk me thru the documentation as requested, and answered all my questions. He is extremely detail oriented, reliable, proactive, punctual, and highly respected with his realtor counterparts. I would highly recommend Bryan to any of my family and friends if a realtor is needed!! "

- Buyer, Fremont, CA

" We used Bryan to sell our home right after things started getting really uncertain in the market. We trusted his expertise and hands down if we are ever buying or selling in his area we will use him again. He was extremely professional. We had been in contact with him for a few years when my parents wanted to sell (and then they didn't), when we thought we wanted to sell a few years ago and finally this year in 2022. He held NO GRUDGES whatsoever when we backed out twice before. A very nice guy. Not creepy. Doesn't pressure you into doing anything. Gives you great advice. He even looked over a contract from a whole other state for us when we were in contract for another house to buy and our realtor there was being unhelpful. Bryan goes above and beyond. We've had experience with 4 realtors this summer, 2 for buying, and 2 for selling (yep crazy summer) and Bryan was our favorite and most professional and not over the top. Would highly recommend! "

- Lari

" While we were searching for our first house in the bay area, one of my colleagues suggested Bryan. We are so very happy that he did! Bryan is the best agent that one can ask for. He is polite, knowledgeable, responsive and dedicated. He answered all of our queries in great details. We always got a prompt reply from Bryan, whether it was after hours, or the weekend. We toured a lot of houses with Bryan, at one point on a daily basis. Bryan was very patient with us. He would also give us an estimate of any renovation cost when we asked him. This really helped us get the broader picture. Bryan knows the bay area market really well. He uses data to determine what a competitive offer on a certain property would be. Therefore, he wrote an excellent offer for us that landed us our first house. Another thing that I must mention is the great network that Bryan has. We went with one of his suggested mortgage lenders who have us a really competitive rate. In short, we had a really great experience working with Bryan. I give him the highest recommendation. "

- Syed Ahmed Al Muyeed

" Bryan helped us sell our home and did an amazing job! Our house was sold within a week, over asking price. Bryan is professional, responsive and a pleasure to work with. Being a first time seller, Bryan put our anxiety to rest and made the whole process seamless and less stressful. His vast experience and knowledge in real estate were conducive to the quick sale of our house. Bryan was always reachable and answered all our questions. We would definitely work with him again and recommend him to our friends and relatives. "

- Seller, Newark, CA

" We met with a few realtors & decided on Bryan Van Heusen, we knew by his presentation he was a true professional. We made the right call! Not only did he sell the property quickly and for far more than we anticipated, he set a record (for price) doing so. I would give him a perfect score! He is the best. "

- Robin Talbott

" We found Bryan based on great reviews and scheduled a meeting with him. From the first moment we met him he put us at ease and showed us through the entire process. Once we started the daunting task of selling our house all the while looking for a house in another area, Bryan was very considerate and communicated with us to keep us updated. Even though we were in the middle of a pandemic and raging fires Bryan kept us appraised and even served as a "part time therapist" when things got too stressful. We cannot thank Bryan enough for what he was able to do in spite of the circumstances he had to deal with. Without his knowledge and guidance we are convinced we would never have sold our house for what we were able to get for it. If you are looking for a professional go getter who works on your behalf then look no further than Bryan. "

- Craig

" We worked with Bryan on 3 separate transactions over the course of 2 years. We were very happy with the outcome on all 3 transactions and he exceeded our financial expectations. More importantly, Bryan is a tenured and trusted advisor who will put your interest first at all times. Its easy to get carried away during the home buying process or get frustrated during a sale - but Bryan is always there to help you see the bigger picture. He is also very knowledgeable about the Bay area and provides the local perspective. We highly recommend him!!! "

- Nagendraprasad Siddarth

" Bryan is a great agent to work with! He is extremely patient and knowledgeable in his field. He is able to handle any complex situation and is very helpful. He is definitely a great negotiator as well and it’s been great to have him as our agent. I highly recommend Bryan to anyone reading this review. I plan to continue on working with him in real estate projects I have in mind. "

- Maria Smith

" I very seldom write a review but when I have such a great experience, I have to let people know. Bryan Van Heusen Legacy Real Estates & Associates was my Realtor crew and he and his team were just wonderful, professional, knowledgeable, and always calm. His team took such incredible care while considering our needs when we sold our Oakland home & I am so very grateful to them. We sold our home In such a short period of time. We had such a smooth and seamless experience. They communicated with me every step of the way and I did not have to call and ask anything from them the entire process. Thanks again for your super dedication and kindness. Brian is the Best Realtor ever! "

- Rodolfo and Bibi Soto

" I highly recommend working with Bryan Van Heusen for your home buying or selling needs. It is a decision you will not regret. Not only is Bryan knowledgeable, reliable, and an excellent communicator, but he is also an exceptionally kind and courteous human being. I have had the pleasure of working with Bryan on two separate occasions and both times he has made the process as smooth and seamless as possible. He handled my recent condo sale which was complicated by a special assessment with the utmost expertise and made the process a breeze. He always has answers to your questions and on the rare occasion that he does not have an answer, he will not rest until he finds the answer for you. I will without hesitation work with Bryan again in the future for any home purchase or sale. He is excellent! "

- K. Ajalm

" If you are looking for a real estate agent, you should be looking into Bryan Van Heusen. We used Bryan to sell our house in Union City. He did a fantastic job in the preparation in selling our house. (one hint: staging is important) Bryan nicely guided us through a very satisfactory selling process. We received multiple and excellent offers to choose from. And . . . . we closed quickly. Communication with Bryan? I am glad you asked. Bryan was quick to respond and his responses were complete and very useful. If you are selling or if your are buying, I strongly recommend you reach out to Bryan and learn what he can do for you. "

- Tom R

" We found Bryan through yelp and we are so glad we went ahead with him for our home purchase. He is very knowledgeable, yet very kind and professional. He has the customers best interest first approach, which makes him very reliable. He guided us through the entire process and was always available to answer questions. He truly is worthy of all the 5 star reviews and we would highly recommend him whether you are buying or selling your home. His vast experience in the bay area is very valuable. He is the realtor to have for all future transactions. "

- Karthik TK

" Ok, if you're looking for a listing agent (a realtor to help you sell your house) STOP! Stop looking, Stop searching, Stop trying to find the perfect agent for you because you just did! There aren't enough words to express just how much Bryan and his team did for us! We did not have or know any realtors in our area. We found Bryan through an internet search. He has an amazing team of contacts including the stager and photographer. After explaining in great detail exactly what was going to happen, when, how, and by whom, we were set. Bryan is always quick to respond to a call or text and willing to answer any question that comes up. Bryan called us on a Friday afternoon at 4:30 to tell us that the house was listed and live. 3 days later, at 7PM on Monday he called to tell us we had 14 offers! We sold for $71,000 over listing price!! I don't know how you could ask for more than that from your realtor! Bryan is the best of the best for a reason!! Although we relocated out of the area, if we do sell again, we'll reach out to Bryan FIRST! "

- D. McClain

" Not All Realtors Are Created Equal We previously had another agent to help us buy and sell our homes and thought why start over with someone new. We already moved overseas and had our Bay Area home vacant for most part of the year. After careful thoughts, we decided it's time to sell our home. Our goal was to sell the house quickly with top dollar. Unfortunately, we felt that the agent we previously worked with did not have a solid plan so we started searching for a better agent. We found Bryan through the rave reviews on Yelp and wanted to see if he was that good like everybody said. We set up a phone interview from overseas and right off the bat we felt he was the right one to represent us. Bryan has a great team of handymen, stagers, and inspectors. He never pressured us to do any unnecessary upgrades or repairs. He provided excellent insight into the market condition and came up with what price we should list the home for. Though we felt it was a seller's market since most of the homes in our area went pending in less than 10 days, we trusted that Bryan knows our market well. By the time we were ready to list our home, two homes in our community came on sale. One listed pretty high and did not show well. That home took 2 months to sell and sold under asking price. Another home also listed a high price, also did not show well, and eventually had to drop the price to get a contingent contract. We think our neighbors' agents went ahead to list a home in a hurry without studying the comparable analysis and the result spoke for it. This proves that even in a seller's market, you still need the expertise of a well seasoned realtor to guide you to the finish line. We were very fortunate to have Bryan on our team. He had a proactive marketing plan that reached more qualified buyers. We felt he was worth paying extra commission for. Bryan brought in a stager that made our home look stunning. We had multiple offers within a few days of listing and all of them were significantly higher than the asking price and with excellent terms. With Bryan's guidance, we were able to accomplish our goal in selling quickly with top dollar. We even set the record sale price in the neighborhood. During the whole process, Bryan was very professional, honest, treated us with respect and had our best interest. He does not make empty promises. He always keeps us posted on what's going on and responds to our texts, emails and phone calls in a timely manner. He is kind, courteous and has a high level of integrity. If you are looking for the best seller's agent in the Bay Area to represent you, we highly recommend Bryan Van Heusen. "

- Jenny Schu

" I am very happy to write this review of Bryan Van Heusen. Bryan is a true professional and expert, and helped us to navigate a very unusual market as we sold our house. Within half a day of emailing Bryan's office, we had met, and Bryan had given us an overview of how he planned to market our house. The strategy he developed for presenting our place was a big reason behind how quickly it closed; we were given an offer within two days of our first open house, and the offer was for full asking. During the closing period, gas prices were all over the place, the economy was in flux, and we had problems with our HOA. Bryan gave us guidance and input throughout, helping us to stay calm in the middle of a lot of stress. I’m so glad we chose Bryan to be our realtor. I only wish he could help us find a home in the area to which we moved outside of the Bay Area! "

- Eddie Lameire

" If you need a Realtor look no further than Bryan Van Heusen! As first-time home sellers we had no idea what to expect, however the entire experience in selling our home was seamless. Bryan is highly knowledgeable in the market, responsive, thoroughly explains the selling process, offers amazing communication, and recommended a skilled contractor to renovate our home. The staging was exceptional – we were in awe of how phenomenal our house looked when it listed. We received multiple offers on the house and Bryan’s guidance during the offer process was reassuring. We are incredibly grateful for Bryan’s guidance and support throughout the selling process. Bryan and his team went above and beyond for us, and I highly recommend his services. You’re amazing Bryan! "

- Misty Amiot

" Bryan was great to work with from day 1! He listed our house on a Monday, held an open house that weekend, we had 3 offers on Tuesday! He answered endless questions about all sorts of things, and his answers were accurate and timely. Bryan's team is amazing too -- Abraham did everything from minor repairs to hauling our trash away for us, and he did it really well. The staging was really impressive -- we almost didn't recognize the house afterwards. It looked like something out of Home & Gardens! Throughout the process Bryan was friendly, organized, and a true pleasure to work with. He helped us get the disclosure package ready and guided us through the various contracts we needed to Docusign. As a result, the closing went really smoothly and we couldn't be happier. My husband and I highly recommend Bryan & his team! "

" Bryan helped me with both selling my old place and buying a new place. He was available almost 24/7 to assist me with any questions/concerns I had. I highly recommend him to any home buyers/sellers! "

- B. Park

" We recently were on the market to sell our home. We interviewed a couple of agents and were really pleased to have met Bryan. For the initial meeting he gave us a complete overview of the entire process, along with his team and took the time to answer our questions. Bryan proved very resourceful in getting the right people for whatever work was needed on the house. We were very pleased with the way the house was staged and photographed. Bryan made himself available as needed during the entire process. The process was as seamless as it could be given the uncertain times (with COVID & the fires and air quality issues). We would wholeheartedly recommend Bryan to anyone looking to sell their house. "

- Maureen Cochran Smith, Hayward

" Bryan Van Heusen is an outstanding Realtor and assisted me through 3 separate transactions over a few years. Each time we called, Bryan immediately responded and was patient and knowledgeable in answering all of our questions. He doesn’t pressure or persuade you to make certain decisions, rather he shares his knowledge and assures you he will represent you to the best of his ability. Bryan is incredibly professional, extremely responsive and makes you feel at ease throughout the entire transaction. I have purchased homes, with Bryan’s assistance and expertise, and sold a home. He follows through in all circumstances and willing to go above and beyond the call of duty! if he gives you his word, Bryan will follow through! He even agreed to watch over our dog while buyers were present to see our property because we couldn’t be home in time. Who does that? Bryan does! He is too- notch and will always be my favorite Realtor. Bryan is highly professional and will ensure your real estate transaction moves flawlessly from start to finish! I would highly recommend his services to all who are interested in a Realtor! "

" What a great experience with Bryan. After 35 years at our first home, we have raised our family and made many memories there. From the time we were introduced to Bryan; he has been very professional from the first phone conversation to our first meet (followed all COVID-19 guidelines). Bryan has made this complete process seamless. He is very detailed orientated and has patience from start to finish. We would recommend him in a heartbeat to anyone that wants to have quality professional service selling their home. We wish we could give you more stars but unfortunately, it will only allow us 5. Again thank you Bryan for all your hard work. "
