Client Testimonials for Kinoko Real Estate

I had the great pleasure of working with Nini and Marcell at Kinoko. In short, they helped me close on the home of my dreams during incredibly challenging times. It was my first home purchase and I couldn't have been happier with the experience! A few things that I think really set Nini and Marcell apart: Knowledge of the market. I came into the process with only a vague understanding of what I wanted, but Nini and Marcell were able to show me a variety of options that helped me better understand my tastes. They understand the condo market in San Francisco incredibly well and they continuously showed me both off-market and units on the MLS that met the ever-growing list of requirements I had. As I locked in on some units, also helped put together compelling comp packets that helped me understand what units were the best value. Negotiation.

I had the great pleasure of working with Nini and Marcell at Kinoko. In short, they helped me close on the home of my dreams during incredibly challenging times. It was my first home purchase and I couldn't have been happier with the experience! A few things that I think really set Nini and Marcell apart: Knowledge of the market. I came into the process with only a vague understanding of what I wanted, but Nini and Marcell were able to show me a variety of options that helped me better understand my tastes. They understand the condo market in San Francisco incredibly well and they continuously showed me both off-market and units on the MLS that met the ever-growing list of requirements I had. As I locked in on some units, also helped put together compelling comp packets that helped me understand what units were the best value. Negotiation. We submitted offers for a few units and Nini and Marcell negotiated amazing offers on my behalf. In the unit I ended up purchase, they were able to negotiate an offer well under asking and accommodate a number of contingencies I had. Responsiveness. Nini and Marcell were always responding to my questions, whether through text, email, or on the phone. Even when messaging during weekends or evenings, I usually received responses in a matter of minutes. Their responsiveness made the who process as stress-free as possible. Flexibility. Nini and Marcell were always happy to explore any potential options for the home. For instance, one of the homes I was looking to purchase was an empty shell unit that needed to get built out. While I didn't end up purchasing that unit, Nini and Marcell, helped walk me through the process of getting a construction loan and completing a buildout for the unit. They were also always able to schedule tours and walkthroughs of units immediately, even during recent Covid times. Network. The unit I ended up buying was off-market and I was fortunate that Nini and Marcell had an expansive enough of a network to find the listing. They were also able to connect me with other professionals throughout the process for services such as getting a loan and having an inspection done. Friendliness. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, Nini and Marcell were both just incredibly friendly and accommodating throughout the entire process. I threw them a ton of curveballs and there were lots of external factors that made the purchase challenging (like Covid and a volatile market), but Nini and Marcell always pushed me to make whatever asks I needed to get what I wanted. I really appreciate how comfortable they made me feel the entire time and I undoubtedly came out ahead because of it.
