Elisa tirelessly searched for the perfect property for me and was able to find me one for a reasonable price in my desired neighborhood. I would recommend Elisa to anyone who is looking for a passionate, driven, and client-centric realtor.

This review is long overdue because I worked with Elisa nearly two years ago. But it also makes this review more relevant because it comes after we have lived in the house that she found for us. I hope that I am able to do justice to the tremendous professionalism that Elisa lives by.

We were not the easiest of buyers because we had a lot of constraints related to Vaastu requirements, location, price range, home construction recency, schools, proximity to highways, etc. While we were constrained on a few aspects, we were completely open on other aspects (SFH, townhome, new construction, buy-and-rebuild, etc). Both of these aspects made the search complex and expansive. On top of this, at the time that we were looking for homes, there were covid related restrictions that required elaborate planning when touring homes. Even with so many factors in play, Elisa didn't blink and arranged for us to tour a lot of relevant homes. Our insistence on Vaastu was probably the hardest constraint to deal with because that rules out about 90% of the homes. Elisa worked through all such constraints and patiently worked with us without judgment or attitude. We explored a ton of homes online while chatting with her daily. We also toured many many homes -- too many for me to admit. I can honestly say that we did a thorough job of finding our ideal "forever home". This would have been impossible without Elisa's patient and diligent ground work.

Other than being a great agent, Elisa is also well connected to a lot of other well regarded professionals in the area. She arranged for us to meet with a few home builders and plot owners. The mortgage agent that she introduced us to was better than any other recommendations and we finally went with them. She also knows a lot of other people in the real estate industry such as lawyers, plumbing companies, furnishers, etc. This made the overall process of home touring, bidding, closing and moving-in manageable.

After living in our home for two years, I can honestly say that we found a great home that has all the primary attributes that we hoped to have. And it's not just a coincidence that we found it because Elisa put a ton of effort into understanding me, my family and our needs. She still remembers the names of my wife and children, she remembers many of the homes that we visited, she remembers some of the Vaastu criteria that we laid down and she remembers our house warming ceremony.

When I started with the home search, I never realized the importance of having a good buyer's agent because everything seems transactional these days. With Elisa you get the old school professionalism combined with modern sharpness, taste, knowledge and efficiency. We've had meetings with builders at 10:00PM. We toured homes on Sunday morning at 9:00AM. We've toured 6 homes back-to-back where the travel time between homes was accurately factored into. We made many bids that helped us understand the current market. We negotiated some difficult terms of the deal under market moving conditions. Elisa has walked us through every step of the way.

We are still in touch with Elisa long after we bought our home with her and I consult with her on a few things. I can honestly say that she is our trusted friend and advisor. Thank you for everything, Elisa!

Elisa helped us find our home in Los-Gatos. Elisa was patient, gave us good advice and finally she nailed us with an off-market transaction. Elisa negotiated the deal with the seller's broker very professionally and persuaded him to close the deal for us. Needless to say we are very happy and recommend Elisa as our top Broker

Elisa is wonderfully organized and detail-oriented. She met with tradespeople at the house so that I did not have to travel. She scheduled all the various appointments and kept everyone on schedule so that my home sold as quickly as possible. She was a joy to work with and I would definitely sell my next home with her if possible!

We are excited to recommend Elisa to anyone who is thinking about selling or buying their home. While this was not our first time selling a house, it was absolutely the first time where we had such a dedicated, organized, pleasant and a professional agent. From the moment we met Elisa, she came prepared to the meeting, knowing the area, the comparables, and had a presentation ready for us with a check list, to-do list, and next steps. Her expertise in real estate and the bay area real estate market is second to none, and her advise unsurprisingly resulted in our house selling in just 2.5 days at over 200k above the list price, thanks to her skilled negotiations! More importantly, throughout the process, Elisa was always there to assist and answer questions, day or night. Elisa was present, physically, every step of the way, whether it was for the home inspection, pictures, and showings. Even after we closed and her commission was distributed, she made sure to reach out on our move day and ask if we needed help, breakfast or even assistance with the kids! Do you know another agent who does that? If you want to take the stress out of selling and/or purchasing your home, we urge you to take Elisa and be rest assured that you are in great hands with only your best interests in mind.

Thank you Elisa for an amazing experience, great support and bringing this deal home.
Elisa is an amazing professional to work with, the knowledge she brings to the table of the Cambrian/ Campbell and Los gatos real state market is deep and provides the buyer the required data in this challenging market. Elisa is super patient as she led us through the purchasing process. She shared important data, helping us to verify we are making the right decision for our family.
I was highly impressed by her historical real estate knowledge. Elisa seems to know many of the other real state agents in the area and how they work. This experience helped us to properly strategize in this competitive market. Going on a tour with Elisa feels almost like you have a friend with you. A friend that knows what to look for, and point out what maybe a challenge to resale moving forward. Elisa is a go getter, transparent and respectful of your time and limitations. I fully endorse and recommend her!

We had a great experience with Elisa. She helped us buy a new house and also sell our old one, all in a matter of weeks (and during a pandemic). She was very professional, organized, efficient, delivered everything on time. She was always available, looked after our best interest and ensured all was taken care of. We highly recommend her.

It was a pleasure working with Elisa. She is very detailed oriented and managed very well every step of the sale of our house. She is a very good negotiator and has a great judgment on house values. Elisa also did an amazing job making sure our house looked beautiful before the sale, getting the right professionals to help us out. I highly recommend her.

Elisa was fabulous in every way. Preparing the property for sale, thinking of every detail to make our property get the most in the market, Elisa went above and beyond. She was extremely professional, gave detailed timelines, communicated regularly, had a thoughtful approach with the buyers agents that ultimately landed us a sale that was well beyond what we expected in record time. The process was smooth and easy and I highly recommend her services and the Sereno team.
