Tanja was there for us every step of the way as we went through the difficult process of selling our family home after our dad passed away. We literally could not have done it without Tanja! She was there for my sister and I every step of the way as we went through the difficult process of selling our family home in Oakland after our Dad passed away. The house might have been sellable as is, but it was not your every day single-family home. It needed updates and some creative thinking. Tanja never blinked, took it as an interesting challenge, and with optimism helped us through to a sale. Tanja truly did find that "needle in a haystack buyer" for us! Her research, knowledge and marketing truly WORKED. She also explained things all along the way, had excellent communication, was SO quick to respond when offers came in, and was just a joy to work with. Tanja is a trustworthy, highly knowledgeable, responsive and respectful real estate agent. I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell in the Bay Area without hesitation. Tanja will take GREAT care of you.

Terry was a great! With the recent passing of our Mother, we had to sell our family home of 56 years. "Terry was a great! With the recent passing of our Mother, we had to sell our family home of 56 years. There can be a lot of emotions recalling all the childhood memories making it hard to say good bye, but Terry was there as a caring and trusted friend making the process very easy for us. He is very knowledgeable and experienced in all areas of real estate. Explained all the processes of listing and helped us to understand offers from potential buyers which abled us to make the best decision for our family. I would highly recommend Terry to anyone with real estate needs.

I really can’t say enough great things about Tanja. She was communicative, diligent, knowledgeable, and so supportive when it came to selling my mom’s home (which she had lived in for40+ years). While getting the house ready, Tanja was wonderful about communicating with us about what repairs and enhancements were needed while staying within our budget (this included staging as well!) Not only that, but the house was put on the market as COVID-19 began to ramp up and she handled all of the unknowns like a total pro. I always felt like she had our best interest at heart and am forever grateful for all her help in selling my mom’s house. She is a consummate professional who is also kind and personable, I would recommend her in a heartbeat!”

Working with Terry was seamless through the entire process of selling my house (which I also bought through Terry). Selling my house required some remodeling which Terry helped me through. My house even sold for more than ask with Terry!

Tanja did an excellent job in helping sell my Mother’s home after she passed. I met Tanja at a Chabot Science Center fundraiser a few years ago and she came over to meet my Mom and discuss with us what the house needed to be in a sellable condition. I used this info to start repairs etc. with my Mom’s blessing. Move forward to last October after my Mom’s death, and we went on a high speed process to finish the work by the New Year to present a nice, clean and fresh property. Tanja made suggestions on what to update and what to leave alone, some of which I resisted but in the end were spot on to the taste of today’s buyers. They also excelled in the property showing (5 open-houses in 2 weeks, including a wine and cheese evening reception, resulting in 17 offers and a resulting bidding contest which Tanja handled expertly, keeping us in the loop… I highly recommend Tanja as a professional and competent Real Estate Agent and would use her in the future if I sell my own house.”

Terry helped us sell our condo and buy a big, exciting townhouse! He did fantastic work, was always professional and conscientious. Some items of note: 1. We probably exchanged 200 text messages and had 50-60 phone calls. He promptly returns messages or calls at all hours. 2. Terry is extremely ethical. He was a neutral broker who advocated on our behalf but also kept the new owners/sellers in mind. I was impressed. 3. He knows the EB. We moved from one part of WC to another, but he helped us consider Danville and PH as well. 4. He’s been doing this forever, and I was a kind of a ball of nerves 10-20 times but he was able to help guide me gently to reality. 5. Super nice guy, my 3 yo loved him. 6. He put in the work, and made it all happen, fast. I’d encourage anyone looking to buy or sell a house to give Terry a call!!

I absolutely loved working with Tanja for so many reasons. First of all she is incredibly hard-working, are always responsive, no matter the time you email or text. I am not sure how she does it but she was always there to answer questions. She was in constant communication, I always knew where in the process we were, what was happening, and why we were doing things… she was really understanding about my limitations in terms of coming out to the property and really stepped up to help. She found and supervised all the inspections for me, the cleaning crew, and at one point even weeded my front yard to make the pictures look prettier. My favorite part of working with her though was her sense of humor, she had me laughing during the whole process and made something that can be so very stressful almost fun. I had a price I thought I could get for my house and they was really firm that we could get more. I honestly didn’t believe them, real estate agents can be really dishonest, saying they are going to get way above your asking price, just to get your business. But this woman really did her research, priced the home perfectly… and we actually sold $40,000 above asking in less than a month!! She is a really kind and patient person and everyone seems to like working with her, which is great when you consider all the people that have to come together to get a loan and purchase a home. My situation was especially complicated because of my recent divorce and but Tanja was so patient in dealing with all the complications that arose as a result, she always made me feel respected. Most importantly, I especially appreciated working with Tanja because not everyone is LGBT+ friendly and I felt she was really protective of my family and our interests.”

Terry is an angel. We spent the last year working with terry. Unfortunately I think we may have been one of if not the most difficult client terry has ever had. We inherited a condo and posted it for sale to be split three ways. There was a lot of loose and uncertain ends with the estate being in a trust, still having a relative live in the place to pay bills, and of course the uncertainty with COVID-19. Over the course of the year we sold the condo and got our other family in a new house that was also unfortunately about 100 miles away. After dozens of trips ranging in the thousands of driving miles, Not once did terry threaten to walk away, give off negativity, or quit. Terry is 100% committed to the cause, terry does not do real estate for money, I believe he does it as a passion, he enjoys what he does… HE LOVES WHAT HE DOES. Terry is not only a businessman, he’s a good friend, a family man, and a neighbor. If you’re looking for a good realtor in the SF Bay Area, look no further than Terry Tucker.

We had a really great experience with Tanja – the market is crazy right now, so extra challenging and stressful for a first time home buyer. Tanja was with us every step of the way and got us a home in less than a month! She goes above and beyond, giving a full service experience – she is even helping us after closing – helping to find repair people, making suggestions for next steps, answering first time homeowner questions, etc… It was also really interesting to see some of the other deals Tanja has been working on (when signing onto this site) – our sale was one of the smallest that she’s handled in a while and yet, I would’ve never known that, based on how she treated us throughout the process. Tanja was super responsive and always willing to give us her time to step through explanations and questions. She made us feel like her #1 client – and that means a lot. Thanks Tanja!”

Terry is a great person and very experienced realtor who will be able to assist you with your real estate needs. If you are looking for a friendly, kind, experienced realtor – Terry Tucker is your agent! Terry helped us find the perfect home in the perfect neighborhood. He is very patient. He knows the area well and helped identify neighborhoods that met our criteria. Terry also has construction experience which came in great as we looked at some fixer uppers. Terry is a great person and very experienced realtor who will be able to assist you with your real estate needs.

I highly recommend Tanja. Tanja helped us in doing a 1031 exchange which only gave us 45 days to find an exchange property to buy. We not only found an exchange property but finalized the exchange in RECORD TIME……less than 30 days despite having to negotiate the complicated SOLAR PANEL CONTRACT THAT CAME WITH THE HOUSE. Solar panel contracts that come with a home can be DIFFICULT whether its a Lease or Purchase contract, it can be a pain, mission accomplished. Tanja is also diligent at reviewing and explaining the details about the home disclosures. I highly recommend Tanja.”

I can’t imagine going through the process without Terry’s guidance and understanding. Terry is an exceptional real estate agent. My wife and I shopped for our first home 12 years ago. We are very careful with our big decisions in life and we don’t rush. Terry recognized this. He was very patient and professional with us as we went through the process. Thankfully, Terry was still active in the real estate business when I needed his help in selling my mom’s house after my father’s passing and buying a new home for her. I can’t imagine going through the process without Terry’s guidance and understanding. Highly recommended!

Tanja is a one-stop shop! Tanja is very knowledgeable in matters real estate in the Bay Area, she is a one-stop shop. She helped us organise everything we needed so that when we started searching for a home, our search was targeted. She saved us a lot of time by advising us how to bid correctly so that our bid was strong in this sellers market. We were in escrow within a week!! What I like most is that she walks this journey with us and is available to advise even after the sale was complete.

Want less stress hire Terry whether you want to sell or buy. Terry Tucker was recommended by a friend. Couldn’t be more pleased with Terry’s expertise and gentle demeanor. Selling a house when you’re in your eighties can be a daunting challenge but Terry eased the pain with his kindness and understanding. He responds to emails and texts within minutes which is really exceptional in this day and age. He truly cares for his clients. Want less stress hire Terry whether you want to sell or buy.

Quality, Experience, Ethics! Tanja went beyond simply selling our home and help us find a new one. Working with Tanja was absolutely fantastic and I strongly recommend her to anyone interested in selling and/or buying a house. My husband and I worked with Tanja to sell our home and purchase a new one during the pandemic and we cannot recommend her enough. I could go on and on about how great she has been but I’ll focus on a few key standout traits: Local Knowledge – She understands the East Bay incredibly well having lived and worked throughout the area for years. Our house hunt was focused on the Oakland-area and she understood well that the difference of a few blocks can mean a completely different vibe for a neighborhood and she helped us find exactly what we were seeking. Determination – Selling a home and finding a new home during a pandemic was not without a few bumps in the road and Tanja helped us get through them all, consistently going above and beyond to make sure things moved forward without a hitch. Action Oriented – Things move fast in Bay Area real estate and Tanja was always ready to pounce when a new house came on the market. This fast action led to us finding our dream home. Caring – She went beyond simply selling our home and finding us a new one. She really got to know us and our family and we’ve built a lasting relationship. We appreciated that she approach her work from a genuine place and is not transactional. Because she helped us find our dream home we don’t anticipate needing to work with her anytime soon, but if our plans change she’ll be the first one we call.

Terry was patient and always focused on helping us find the right fit for our needs rather than just closing the deal. My husband and I recently purchased our first home in Walnut Creek, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide throughout the process than Terry. We were searching for a home with Terry for about 4 months, and as first-time buyers, it was so refreshing never feeling rushed or pressured into making a decision. Terry was patient, and always focused on helping us find the right fit for our needs rather than just closing the deal. To top it off, Terry’s local network has been invaluable. After getting our keys, he connected us with a list of reliable local contractors, which made planning the next steps of homeownership easier. If you are looking for an honest, knowledgeable, and well-connected agent in the Bay Area, we cannot recommend Terry enough!

I’ve come to rely on her advice and know I can count on her for my real estate needs. Idon’t know anyone who is more knowledgeable regarding the state of the housing market in the east bay than Tanja. I’ve come to rely on her advice and know I can count on her to make the deal happen. I couldn’t believe you got my family friends a house in this Covid/low-interest-rate crazy market. A great way to get to know Tanja is to check out her series of real-estate videos on Youtube and Facebook. Or Attend Oaktoberfest in the Dimond District, where I have seen her every year since I can remember.”

He truly cares about his clients. A friend recommended Terry. Not only is Terry well-informed and professional but he went way beyond what other realtors have done for me in the past. He truly cares about his clients. He responds to any questions and texts within minutes. Highly recommend Terry whether you buy or sell.

We’ll definitely work with Tanja again. Thank goodness for Tanja! She has been such a pleasure to work with during this crazy process. We were interested in some land to build a dream home and had no idea what we didn’t know. She was thoughtful, curious and determined. She talked to the city (thank goodness because I didn’t want to do that!) and to the sellers realtor and kept us aprised of all the happenings throughout the process. She even recommended we have someone come out (free of charge thanks to her network!) to check out the land and talk to us about how big we could dream (keeping us realistic). It was perfect. I’m bummed our offer wasn’t accepted but I can’t wait to find another lot to build my dreams on! We’ll definitely work with Tanja again.

Terry Tucker is a true professional and veteran. He helped navigate the removal, remodeling and sale of my mothers home efficiently and effectively keeping in constant communication. The home sold over asking and closed within 3 weeks. Could not have been more happier with Terry’s service. A+ real estate agent!

Tanja is an amazing agent! So glad to work with her! I met Tanja at an open house back in January 2018. At the time, I did not have a buyer agent, and I knew that person should be Tanja right away because of her knowledge of this field and energetic charisma… She always made herself available to check out those properties regardless it was weekends or weeknights. She also gave me some advice about how to get to know the neighborhood well, which was very insightful… Tanja had a network of professionals who conducted reports about that property… Tanja suggested three different loan officers, and I was able to get a relatively low rate as well. Tanja helped me to navigate different requests from the loan officer, the escrow officer, and the seller… I felt that she always there for me. That is why I am writing this review seven months later {after escrow closed}. As a buyer, I definitely recommend Tanja!

Toward the end of 2010 Terry found us the perfect lot and with impeccable timing was able to help us buy that lot at a massive discount. In 2009, we began looking for the perfect lot to build a family home. Toward the end of 2010 Terry found us the perfect lot and with impeccable timing was able to help us buy that lot at a massive discount. Six years later, after building our dream home we unexpectedly found ourselves considering a move across the country and we hired Terry to sell our house for us. He listened to what we needed, came up with a great marketing plan and executed it. We eventually sold it for more than we were expecting and were thrilled with the results. We would recommend Terry in a heartbeat to anyone who asked!

Tanja works to understand your situation and priorities. Tanja is innovative, creative, energetic, marketing genius who are not afraid to take risks and try something new. Additionally she is genuinely involved in the community in terms of understanding specific neighborhoods and community outreach. Whether helping you buy or sell, she will work to understand your situation and priorities to best advocate for you.

We would refer him in a heartbeat. Terry’s A+ personality along with his being accommodating to our needs, made him very easy to work with.

This platform has revolutionized our business operations. The seamless integration and powerful features have helped us scale our marketing efforts efficiently while maintaining excellent customer relationships.

She really goes above and beyond from start to finish! We met Tanja a few months ago and we clicked with her right away. She is very knowledgeable and keeps the process so smooth. She really goes above and beyond from start to finish. She was able to help us get the home we wanted and still stay in the Bay Area close to our family. We would highly recommend Tanja, she is very patient and caring she gets the job done. Thank you Tanja!

We appreciate how you responded to us in a timely manner. We appreciate how you responded to us in a timely manner and took care of any problems that we ran into along the way. You were a good advocate for our family and we would not hesitate to refer you to our friends and family.

Tanja was wonderfully helpful, patient, communicative and positive throughout the entire process. As first time home buyers in this crazy competitive Oakland market, my husband and I knew it was not going to be easy. Tanja was wonderfully helpful, patient, communicative and positive throughout the entire process. She worked within our budget and location preferences. When we found our home, Tanja worked swiftly and assertively to get our offer in and accepted! Tanja was a real advocate for us throughout the negotiation process and was able to secure us some credit towards closing costs. It was an intense 21-day close but she pressed the lender to get things done on time. I would absolutely recommend her to any friend or family member!”

Terry was very easy going and easy to communicate our needs to. Terry was very easy going and easy to communicate our needs to.  He makes you feel comfortable in a very uncomfortable situation.  I had a lot of trust in him with myself and my family.

Great unique experience! We had a very unique but great experience with Tanja. She is super knowledgable, and fun to work with. We had unusual experience with selling during what seemed like the worst time ( Ca fires and off season making air quality unbearable) but she helped keep us uplifted and momentum going and in the end selling our house at a price we were happy with. She also made the closing process pretty smooth and quick. We appreciate all her help and understanding and would highly recommend her in the future!”

Thank you for your willingness to work around our crazy schedules and meet with us at our convenience, in our home, day or night.

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience with Tanja, and would work with her again! Our situation was somewhat unique, in that we started looking six months in advance. We were prepared to buy if we found “our house”, but perhaps not as fast as some other agents would like. Tanja’s enthusiasm was inspiring whenever we found a home we might be interested in. When we did find the house we ended up buying she helped and guided us through the whole process. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience with Tanja, and would work with her again.

Thank you for your help in buying my first home.  Your calmness and professionalism helped me through it all!

She is flexible, all-out when giving help! Tanja got our home sold quickly this fall, even though the market had cooled quite a bit. She worked closely with my husband and myself as we got our home market ready. She had lists of referrals for any type of work we needed to do on the house. She had great opinions on what things were most important to do. As we got closer to listing time she really rolled up her sleeves and helped us out, getting laborers for yard work, installing new doorknobs, cleaning up, anything that needed to be done. When the listing was live, she worked so hard getting the Home exposure, canvassing the neighborhood, holding several open houses, even serving wine and cheese! When it was apparent Home sales were slowing down with the fall season, she quickly adjusted her sales plans and got us an offer on our home that we were happy to take. She even introduced us to our realtor in Sacramento where we were able to purchase a wonderful new home.”

We wanted to say thank you for going the extra mile and making our home purchase as smooth and stress free as possible.  I really appreciate you seeing us when it was convenient for us and not the other way around.

Tanja delivered what I wanted. Tanja understood that I wanted to hand over the sale to her to handle entirely because I was moving back to my previous residence and wanted a clean, trouble free sale which would hopefully provide a young family a good home in this very crazy Oakland market. I wanted my house to go to good people at a fair price and that is exactly what happened. And the entire transaction went very quickly and hopefully happily for all. The new buyers moved in after a 19 day closing. I accepted their offer and there were no problems.

Thank you so very much for absolutely everything you did to sell our home so quickly and for such a fantastic price. You went above and beyond, especially when you worked up a sweat moving our furniture to stage our home!  Your sense of humor is priceless and your kindness and friendship hugely appreciated. We cannot thank you enough for your personal attention and never ending effort and commitment that went way above and beyond our expectations.

She would do what it takes. You won’t regret it! Tanja was excellent. She sold my home for a record price. She was very responsive, had an excellent marketing plan which was executed perfectly. She gave me good advice and answered all my questions promptly. I highly recommend her to anyone. She would do what it takes and very helpful and hardworking. You won’t regret it.

Thank you so very much for helping us buy our wonderful house. We are very happy here and it is partially due to your patience, experience, honesty and professionalism.  We always tell our friends and family about you and how great you were through the whole process.  I know we took our time, but it was worth it.

Tanja is the kindest, most ethical and savvy realtor I’ve ever known. What can I say really – I never wanted to sell my home, and was emotionally attached to it – sadly I came to a point where life dictated a new path and I had to list my home. Not only did Tanja show up with a plan, but with a plan B and a plan C. She helped answer all my questions thoroughly and was instrumental in coordinating logistics for inspections, staging, meetings and all the prior production work needed to list my home. When challenges arrived, Tanja had solutions and options for every fork in the road. She was also exceptionally kind and compassionate, and literally rolled up her sleeves to help achieve major deadlines. Her marketing of my home was exquisite – we sold in seven days with many competitive offers to choose from. Tanja made the process bearable for me during one of the most challenging times in my life – AND got me the arrangement I wanted. I would recommend her strongly to anyone, and will call on her again when I’m in the position to buy. Utilize her talent – you won’t regret it!!!

Thank you so much for everything you did to sell our home so fast and for so much! A work colleague had just used Terry and when I was promoted, he recommended I call him. I am so glad I did!

Hard-working, kick-ass realtor! Tanja is amazing and fabulous. She recently helped me sell my house. From the beginning, she had a great eye, a great plan, and she stuck to deadlines and got things done. She really put in the work, hit the neighborhood, handed out flyers, and got buyers to the open house. We used an online platform called home bids and it went better than I could have imagined. Market to close in 28 days. If you need a really hard-working, kick-ass realtor, Tanja is your realtor!”

Just a note to thank you for taking and making the time recently to help out in the search for a prospective home for my mom here in the area. Your help, sensitivity, professionalism and thoroughness are much appreciated by my mom as well as me.  She is thrilled with the home she found and couldn’t have had a better experience. Many, many thanks!

I have confidence in her! Great listener. Knows what parents need and are looking for. Also, great earrings! We didn’t end up buying in Oakland, but if we had I have confidence that Tanja would have done the job well and professionally.”

Terry helped my daughter and son in law buy and sell a house. When it came time to sell my home in Pleasanton, Terry was the only real estate agent I would even consider. He put my home on the market and sold it quickly. Unfortunately, the Buyer backed and my deal fell apart. Terry had it back on the market and had another buyer right away! I was so happy with the results!

She is willing to help. Tanja helped my partner and I research, compare, and view dozens of houses before we decided to make an offer on our first choice. With her help negotiating the terms of sale, we got a great price, found a deal on a loan and were able to purchase a beautiful house! Thank you again Tanja for your patience and expertise.

He was professional, knowledgeable, and did a tremendous job considering the unique challenges that presented themselves at the time. Terry was recommended by a coworker that had a positive experience and I’ve very glad we used him. In the middle of the COVID19 pandemic going into full swing (Spring 2020), Terry worked to get our house listed and sold at a competitive price especially considering all the market uncertainty. He was professional, knowledgeable, and did a tremendous job considering the unique challenges that presented themselves at the time. We move frequently for work, so I’ve worked with many agents across the country over the last 13 years. I would use Terry again in a heartbeat if we ever moved back to the area.

She was thoughtful, responsive, and listened – not afraid to put in the extra work. Tanja has been a joy to work with during this process. We sort of went into this land purchase knowing nothing but having a big dream. She was thoughtful, responsive and really listened. She put in the extra work to talk to to the city and selling realtors about the specifics of what we needed to know and when we decided to put an offer in – she was fast, came with great recommendations and ultimately let us control the narrative. Though the offer wasn’t accepted, we remain in contact and should we find another plot of land that works for us, we’ll absolutely work with Tanja again!

With the recent passing of our Mother, we had to sell our family home of 56 years. Terry was a great! With the recent passing of our Mother, we had to sell our family home of 56 years.

Explained all the processes of listing and helped us to understand offers from potential buyers which abled us to make the best decision for our family.

Would definitely recommend her! Tanja communicated every important detail every step of the way. My wife and I have never been through the process of buying a house and whenever we had a question about a step Tanja provided the answer or quickly started investigating the answer.

I highly recommend Terry as a responsive, knowledgeable, transparent and diligent real estate agent and also as a stellar human being you will love and trust! This endorsement of Terry Tucker is long overdue! I highly recommend Terry as a responsive, knowledgeable, transparent and diligent real estate agent and also as a stellar human being you will love and trust! My husband and I were making a challenging move back to Northern California after the Woolsey fire in Malibu where our home is luckily still standing and still on the market. Terry showed us infinite patience and kindness as we navigated inventory and financing challenges, non stop rain as well as our emotional rollercoaster! Terry found us our beautiful condo in SF just in time for my birthday! And when we told the SF agent Terry was our guy, she knew him by his excellent reputation because she is from Alamo! We can’t thank Terry enough for sticking by us and taking care of us and business until we were all moved in!!

This WOMAN! I wouldn’t buy or sell without her. What can I tell you about Tanja? The last two years of my life have been a whirlwind, and Tanja was there for me every step of the way. A family crisis (divorce, death, etc.) forced me to have to sell my home. Not only did she educate me on the process, she calmed my nerves, understood my situation, was patient and helped me to get my home the best it could possibly be to put on the market. My home sold within 7 days of listing, over asking price, no contingencies. It was the easiest most pain free process I could wish for. Within a year, my life turned around and it was time to buy – even though it was out of her immediate area, Tanja was kind enough to help me find and buy my current home. She even helped me secure a loan while I was re-establishing myself in a new town! There is no stopping her. Tanja is the kindest, most ethical and savvy realtor I’ve ever known. She genuinely cares enough to make sure you are getting the best deal and best home for your lifestyle, and will be honest with your goals… i.e. won’t encourage you to settle just to make the deal. I hope that I’ve been a good enough client to her that she will work with me again if I need to buy or sell in the future. What a gem, full of integrity, and true pleasure to work with. Proud to call her a friend.

Terry was the Agent that helped me buy my Condo in March 2001. Terry was the Agent that helped me buy my Condo in March 2001, and he was the natural choice to then help me sell the same Condo 15+ years later. I attribute Terry’s marketing and negotiation skills to helping me get $15,000 more than the high-end of the price that I thought would be achievable. I would recommend Terry Tucker!

Her patience and tenacity as a realtor is unparalleled. My family met Tanja before COVID at an open house in Oakland. We were new to the scene, so Tanja had to sit us down and give us a reality check: that the norm in the Oakland/Berkeley area is to price insanely low and let the bidding wars drive up the price. Once COVID hit, we put everything on pause, and didn’t get back in touch with her until the end of 2020. During this time, we also told her we were interested in selling our Dublin home. Fast forward a couple months, we decided to sell our home on a super condensed timeline, so we wouldn’t have to find temporary digs before moving into our new place. Prepping the house was a logistical nightmare that we didn’t have the time nor the expertise to do. But Tanja was on top of her game with a spreadsheet and calendar tracking our expenses and keeping everything on schedule, even when so many vendors were unavailable. She kept us aprised throughout and always provided a number of vendor options per service (e.g., window cleaning, carpeting, etc.) so that we could choose vendors with quotes we were comfortable paying for. And at one point, she even took a broom in hand and did the sweeping herself. We knew our home had some great pros along with some cons, and she gave us a price range where she expected the house to sell at to calm our nerves. Lo and behold, she hit the top end of that price range with some serious negotiating chops (we literally saw the offers change on the shared spreadsheet while she worked her magic). Her patience and tenacity as a realtor is unparalleled. We were an extremely difficult family to work with because we wanted to maximize every nickel we spent on prepping (after all, it’s the largest asset we have). But she stayed professional throughout and treated us with 100% respect, even as we borderline micromanaged and got in her way of her doing her job. Thanks for dealing with us, Tanja, and for sticking it out until the end. Your name will be the first thing out of our mouths if any of our neighbors ask us for realtor recommendations.

Terry was key to getting our house sold. His deep experience and broad knowledge of the housing market guided us in selecting the right price at the right time to sell our house. Once the house went on the market, Terry was critical in guiding us through the negotiations and selling process. Our highest recommendation for Terry Tucker!

Tanja is the perfect realtor – she’s always prepared! Finding a home in the bay area is never easy. Lack of inventory, sky high prices, bidding wars. If you don’t have the right person representing you, it can be a very painful experience. We had experienced it firsthand, when we bought our first place in the Bay area. So this time, we were very apprehensive about the whole process. In Tanja, we were lucky to find the perfect realtor, one who came prepared the very first time we met her. She patiently explained all the pros and cons of the properties we liked and how the process will play out. From offer to closing, she not only worked with the other side to get the best deal possible but also with our loan manager, so there are no hiccups on our side. Most importantly, she never let us worry, was available whenever we wanted to vent and was always patient and helped us no matter how rattled we became in finding our new home. She made it happen. We love you T :)

We would not have gotten this home without Tanja. Wow. We can’t say enough good things about Tanja. From getting pre-approved, to closing in one of the most competitive markets ever, she killed it. I haven’t met many people with so much drive & compassion in the real estate industry. She never pushed us to offer on a home that wasn’t what we wanted. She never held back on helpful information when viewing homes. She has years of experience both as an agent and as a bay area homeowner. Home maintenance, construction connections, and how to write a competitive offer. She is the expert.PLUS- She fought tooth and nail to close on a complicated and difficult home. WE WOULD NOT HAVE GOTTEN THIS HOME WITHOUT TANJA. I guarantee it. If you have any hesitations on who to work with, let this be your sign. You won’t regret it. Thank you so much- Tyler & Joey”

Tanja worked overtime to deal with me in the Eastern Time zone. Which is 3 hours earlier than she works in (Pacific Time zone). She prepped me for what to expect as I worked through my 1031 Exchange. From repairing the property I sold, working on the mounds of paperwork, the 1031 Exchange company, the Title company, and the mortgage officers, she helped me out and provided the info I needed to move through the process. The difficult, and stressful part, was finding a new property to purchase within 3 months of selling my old property. She worked quickly, and found a great house for me, within my price point! It was amazing how fast she worked, and how she was able to identify the property types I liked. It was like she opened my thoughts and could visualize what I was looking for, and then found it in physical form! Crazy!

Tanja was really amazing to work with. She offered lots of support at each stage of the home-buying process and made it much simpler and less stressful for us as first-time home buyers. We were faced with a two-week closing time and she got it done with time to spare. I highly recommend Tanja Odzak as a real estate agent.

Tanja is a fiercely passionate and committed Realter, She Midwife and stewarded me through the sellers’ adventures in all its complexities. I am glad that from the moment we first met, I felt a sense of ease and trust. She demonstrated that she was a fiercely passionate and committed partner from the first meeting. After an extensive search for an agent to help sell my home in Oakland, CA I stumbled upon Tanja through a referral, in Asheville, NC, and search in which I performed a detailed review of her credentials as well as interviewed her for the task of helping sell my family home. With so many realtors (there are close to 200,000 realtors in California) I wanted to find someone who genuinely cared about the client’s interest and was not just a salesperson but a proven human and compassionate marketer as well. Tanja, did not disappoint, I felt that Tanja and her team did an exceptional job from the very start. Tanja quickly demonstrated her competence in real estate and marketing and her deep knowledge of the real estate market. She was able to readily communicate to me the current market dynamics and price points for my home in a way I could understand. Her recommendations were spot on both with respect to market dynamics, pricing, and her recommended approach to how we will market my home. I felt she went above and beyond in supporting all my stages of the process from staging, communication, and negotiations. To help with a tenant’s apartment in buying and placing a carbon monoxide alarm to moving overcrowded spaces in the apartment so that inspection could be complete, in a timely manner. What impressed me the most was when a challenge presented itself Tanja and her team always found a solution that met my expectations. There was never a moment where I did not trust Tanja’s decisions and advice. She has proven herself to be a phenomenally astute realtor with strong credentials, an in-depth knowledge of the market, a confident negotiator, with a proven track record to back this up. I have no question in recommending Tanja to anyone who asks.

Working with Tanja was the best experience. My wife and I were pregnant and had our baby within 1 week of working with her. She was patient with our home search. We actually placed an offer on a home we loved that first week, but unfortunately we were out bid. Due to the competitiveness of the housing market in the bay area, we were tempted to search in higher ranges and place higher offers, however we had to reel it back and we continued to be patient with our search until we found the right home. We eventually did and Tanja helped us place an offer at the right price to get the home without overspending. This was outstanding. We ended up with the perfect house for us and we could not have done it without her. Tanja excels with knowledge of the market, as Oakland typically under prices. There were many homes we thought were in our range but it turned out the sellers wanted 100k-200k over the asking. This helped us not even look at these homes due to over budget. She also is extremely informative and detailed with the inspections and disclosures. Every home before putting an offer we discussed all the disclosures to make sure we were ok with what we were offering. She is big on drainage, foundation, and pointing out areas which some people do not see. Overall great experience and we would use her again and recommend to anyone.

We literally could not have done it without Tanja! She was there for my sister and I every step of the way as we went through the difficult process of selling our family home in Oakland after our dad passed away. The house might have been sellable (sale-able?) as is, but it was not your every day single-family home. It needed updates and some creative thinking. Tanja never blinked, took it as an interesting challenge, and with optimism helped us through to a sale. Tanja truly did find that “needle in a haystack buyer” for us! Her research, knowledge and marketing truly WORKED. She also explained things all along the way, had excellent communication, was SO quick to respond when offers came in, and was just a joy to work with. Tanja is a trustworthy, highly knowledgeable, responsive, and respectful real estate agent. I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell in the Bay Area without hesitation. Tanja will take GREAT care of you.

Tanja were forthright, informative and collaborative with us, and we feel very grateful for their expertise. Working with Tanja (and Joey) was about as easy it can be. They were highly responsive to emails and texts, and truly made this process much less stressful than it might have been, given that we were putting our home on the market at the height of COVID shelter-in-place ordinances in the Bay Area. We couldn’t have been more blessed for their joint care and expertise. They were forthright, informative, and collaborative with us, and we feel very grateful for their expertise. We chose them because dear friends also had a positive experience selling with them, and we’re glad to say it was everything we expected based on this recommendation. We really appreciated their wide range of expertise – from staging and decor to pricing and upgrades. We went with almost all of their connections to subcontractors and all were excellent in their work and easy to connect with. We had to replace our carpet, get painting done, clean our windows, and stage the place and they had people for us to work with at every turn. It truly couldn’t have been easier and it was always affordable and fair. It was important to us to get local support and with small businesses and they always had those connections. Our loft was only on the market a little longer than expected and the process from offer to final sale felt like it just breezed by. They set us up with easy ways to communicate and were usually one step ahead of any questions we had. Having them both weighing in on our circumstances was a real gift – you can tell that they enjoy working together, respect each other, and have a balance of strengths. Can’t recommend these two enough – they were dialed into us as their client, respectful of how we wanted to approach selling in a time of rapid gentrification of Oakland, and took time to walk us through their process from start to finish. They really know the Bay Area market and they are well connected. You will not be disappointed with these two women.
