Dear Mei,
We are writing you this letter to express our gratitude for the outstanding job you did as the listing agent in the sale of our home in
Thank you for making our home sale such a success!
Dave and Vivian Bruce, Rivermark,
---------------------------------------------------------
Mei's performance as the agent responsible or selling our home in fall of 2009 can be characterized by one word: flawless. From start to finish, each step demonstrated Mei's professionalism and experience. 1 - Aligning of contractors - Following Mei's advice, we performed some upgrades prior to the selling of our home. Mei utilized her connections to schedule the contractors, who did an excellent and efficient job at a great rate. The fact that she has the network of resources so willing and able to work for her is a testament to her professionalism. 2 - Staging and scheduling - Our situation was unique in that we were relocating to the east coast, and also had a newborn in the house. As such, we did not want any work done prior to our moving out. Mei was quick to line up all necessary inspections, work, staging, etc. and have them begin the day after we moved out. Everything fell into place like clockwork and went according to plan. 3 - Open house - Mei kept us informed of her schedule as she generated as much interest as possible in our home. She held a brokers only open house the first couple of days after listing, and a public open house that weekend. Her marketing machine generated the buzz that is necessary to get as many parties flowing through the house as possible. This buzz is the key to selling a home. 4 - Receipt of offers - Having created a bullet-proof laundry list of features and selling points to our home, Mei calculated a flawless timeline to force interested parties to enter any serious bids in a timely manner. Once the offers came in, Mei quickly triaged the list for us into those that were serious in nature, and those that were simply low-ball bids (this was in the fall of 2009, so many folks were out there undercutting any list price simply to see if they could get it). She also made a point to "normalize" all offers, taking into consideration the costs and fees that actually varied from offer to offer. In other words, the offer price alone was not the only factor, since some buyers were agents themselves willing to reduce commissions, and Mei did a great job at sorting out these other factors. 5 - Generation of counter offers - After identifying the serious offers, Mei quickly generated a set of counter offers that were specific to each buyer. Each counter-offer was crafted so that we would be able to compare all accepted counters in an apples-to-apples fashion. This allowed us to easily compare the conditions that each buyer presented. 6 - Facilitation of closing - As we were dealing with this process remotely, we were worried about the challenges of closing on our house without the benefit of access to the title company. Mei arranged for a come-to-your-home notary to come over and walk us through the paper work, and then take the signed paper work to be sent back to the main title company in
Wes and Lisa Chou,
--------------------------------------------------------- Dear Mei,
We truly enjoyed having you as our seller agent while we were relocating to the East Coast. It was such a peace of mind for us having you on our side and we are very happy that our house was sold so fast in this difficult time. You were always on top of everything with your great professionalism, high quality standards and hard work each step of the way. We appreciated your excellent follow-up and follow-through! Your e-mails/calls were always timely, informative and relevant. We would recommend you without any hesitation to anyone who needs to sell or buy a home. Thank you for taking so good care of our home while we were in the other coast. It really made our relocation much smoother and stress-free.
Best wishes and thank you for everything!
Ana and Luis Maranga,
--------------------------------------------------------- We are extremely happy with the way Mei Ling handled the sale of our which involved a number of things. Mei had to take care of replacing the entire carpet, painting the whole home and a number of other major and minor items in preparation for presenting the propery to prospective buyers in a tough market. She managed to complete all the items at an amazing speed and got the home ready for showing within a week of our vacating the house.
We are also very pleased with the way she handled the whole sales process which resulted in multiple offers after just one week-end of open house. The quick and effective sale is a testament to Mei's creativity, experience and hard work.

--------------------------------------------------------- In June 2009, Mei Ling represented us in the sale of our home in --------------------------------------------------------- Hello Mei, Thank you so much for the great work you've done with us over the past few weeks. You undertook a complicated process and made it as simple for us as possible. When you interviewed with us a couple of months ago, you mentioned staging as your strength. You do have excellent taste in staging, but what I valued most was that you offered sound advice for us throughout the journey and you were a tough negotiator on our behalf. We're very thankful that you worked with us! You should feel free to offer my cell number to anyone who's considering you for selling his home.
Sincerely,
Loren and Jenny,

Dear Mei,
I am writing the following testimonial to express my deepest and sincere appreciation of working with you during the sell of It all began roughly 3 years ago when I first meet you at one of your open-houses. From the first moment, I was deeply impressed by your knowledge of the Rivermark Community and the real estate market in general, and most of all, your professionalism. At that time, the market was booming and houses were selling left and right at exorbitant prices. Fast forward 3 years, the market is in one of its worst down-turns in decades, yet you are still able to get the best value for both sellers and buyers in an unforgiving and down-right brutal market. Wow! Now that’s impressive, and deserves great recognition. I will have to be honest; there were a few times that I doubted the house would be sold, due to the unpredictable nature of the market and the first few bids on the property. Let me be absolutely clear about this statement, I never doubted your ability to sell the house, but I did have doubts about the market in general. In the end, your reassurance allowed me to see the big picture and not sweat the small stuff. Initially, I was concerned that I would not receive a fair price, in such a down market. Yet, you were able to still my fears, and reassure me that I would get a good price for my home, despite the current market conditions. And this is where one of your many superb talents came to light. You were able to stage the house with a brilliant eye for detail, and made it feel like a home. That was a HUGE plus! Over the last couple of months (during a tough market I might add), you have kept your cool, calm, and collective professionalism throughout the entire process of selling the property listed in Rivermark. Most of all, you delivered on your promise, and that was, to sell this property in a difficult, and sometimes tumultuous housing market. You have exceeded my expectations from the moment we met and discussed the real estate market in Rivermark, to your awesome and pure knowledge of staging a home for the best overall effect, to your detailed reports during open-house, and to your extreme patience during times of stressful moments; for this, and much more, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Mei Ling as the realtor to go with if you are in the market for selling or purchasing a home.
Thank you again!

I highly recommend Mei to anyone looking to get the most value for their home in the quickest and easiest manner.

Dear Mei,
Firstly, thank you so much for putting us into such a wonderful house in a beautiful neighborhood with good schools, and within our budget, exactly what had aimed for when we set out on a home search with you.
We had seen the way you had professionally staged homes for sale in our neighborhood and then read testimonials on your web page, and knew that we had to go with the best in the business to do the sale of our home for us.
When we started, we had no idea how the home buying search would turn out to be. However we were impressed with your dedication, hard work, drive towards results and help in narrowing down the homes-list based on our needs. Once we found the home of our choice, we were further impressed on the way you worked with the seller's agent to get the deal done in our favor! You even provided us after-sale consulting when needed. Thank you so much for the outstanding service!
The sale of our old home turned out to be smooth too. Both me and my husband have extremely busy work lives and taking the time out from that to prep the home for sale was unimaginable. You advised on the options and helped pick the approach that suited us - buy then sell, rather than rent, sell, buy, or sell, rent-back, buy. Also, picking the right price in the slowing economy, although lower than what one would have liked, was a very very important decision as it helped us sell our house within 10 days even in a slow market. Once again your service was amazing as you took care of everything - from inspections, paperwork, to the repairs and ultimately the professional grade staging. This was a huge relief for us as we did not have to pay mortgages for 2 homes.
We can see that you treat this profession as both an art and a science that you've perfected it over time. Thank you so much for taking care of such an important aspect of our life in such a professional yet friendly manner. Would be great to work with you again!

--------------------------------------------------------- We chose Mei Ling after doing a lot of research in the Rivermark area, and we know that we made the right choice. Mei staged our home beautifully, using a lot of her own furniture and accessories, making it look like a model home. She was great through the whole process including pricing, sales strategy, open house and the final negotiations and closing the sale. Mei always went the extra mile and was extremely helpful, professional and available when we needed her.

Dear Mei, Because of the recent downturn in the local economy, homeowners and home buyers alike are left in a period of great uncertainty. Especially when we wanted to make sure that whomever we went could deliver results nothing short of excellent. After interviewing with different people who professed to have a specialty in the area, we decided to go with Mei Ling to take care of the sale of our home. From our numerous in-person and telephone communications together with her over the past 2 months, ---------------------------------------------------------
Dear Mei, We would like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts! Right from the beginning, on day 1, we knew we were in the right hands.

You proved over and over again that we were blessed in your guidance. Mei, you are a wonderful and honest person. we are lucky to know you. Please stay in touch.

Hi Mei!!!
AWESOME! EXCEPTIONAL! FABULOUS! That's how I would describe you to anyone who is thinking of selling/buying a home.
I considered you to list my home because (1) I often saw your signs in the neighborhood (2) I was very impressed by your web site (3) I liked the way you advertised your listings. During our initial meeting, I was quite impressed with your knowledge of the neighborhood and the real estate market. Your confidence and honesty about my home were refreshing to me. Plus I was extremely impressed that you had called one of your former buyers to check on them **after** they had moved into their new home. WOW!! Even before the end of our first meeting, I had no doubt I wanted you to list my home, and I made the decision without interviewing any other agents.
I made the decision to ask you to list my home, but now came the nbsp;first test. How would you handle the entire selling process? As it turned out, I had absolutely nothing to worry about because you took care of everything. You had the house staged and ready to be shown within one week!! You knew I was concerned/hesitant about the staging, but you were able to alleviate my concerns with your patience and reassurance. Again, I had nothing to worry about because the house looked like a model house when you were finished with the staging! You were always prompt/patient in answering my calls and emails. You resolved every problem I brought to you with such efficiency and friendliness. After the house was listed, I knew that if it didn't sell, the reasons wouldn't be attributed to you because you had already done everything possible to make the house sell.
I knew that my home was located in a challenging location. Therefore, I had very realistic expectations of the sale of my home. OH MY GOSH!!!! nbsp;MY HOME SOLD IN 7 DAYS!!!...FOR ABOVE THE LIST PRICE!!!! nbsp; I was in total shock (for 2 days!!) when you called me with the offer. I know the house wouldn't have sold that quickly without your professional expertise. nbsp; I am so glad I trusted your judgements and let you run the show instead of trying to interfere with your decisions...7 days!!!....above list price!!....GOOD GRIEF!! /p>
Once my home was under contract, I began to stress because the pessimist in me was afraid the deal would fall through. You continued to reassure me with patience. You ran interference for me with the buyers and the buyers' agent. You watched out for my best interest. Again, I didn't need to stress because you took care of everything, and the closing of my home happened within 30 days after it went under contract!!
I must pat myself on the back for hiring you to sell my home. :))) In my opinion, you are simply THE BEST AGENT EVER!!! If you are still an agent when I sell my next home, I am hiring you again. In the mean time, I will be a walking advertisement for you with anyone who wants to buy/sell a home..."HIRE Mei!! She is THE BEST AGENT EVER!! You'll be so happy to have her help you buy/sell your home!!"
Thank you for making this stressful process as easy as possible for me. Thank you for all that you did in getting my home sold. Thank you for treating my little humble home as if it was one of those million+ houses that you often sell.
THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!
Sincerely,
Lynn Hu, Robin’s Run, --------------------------------------------------------- Professional, committed and savvy - these are only three of the words that come immediately to mind when thinking of Mei. We couldn't be more pleased that we chose Mei to represent us when we sold our house in Sarah and Emanuel Noik, --------------------------------------------------------- Hello Mei,
Jean and I want to thank you for all the hard work you did to help us buy the Rivermark house and sell the Evergreen house. We are both impressed with the great clean up and staging job you did on the Evergreen house. Plus the sales flyer was superb! We are very happy that you managed to sell our house in one week when all the other homes in the area were taking at least 3 weeks or a lot longer to sell. And you got $6000 above the asking price! You are definitely the best agent we've ever worked with. Thank you again Mei for all your hard work.

We recently had a fantastic experience working with Mei Ling to sell a property in the Robin’s Run development in Over the past 10 years here in Extremely knowledgeable. Mei’s knowledge of the local real estate market is very extensive. In our initial meeting, she went into a lot more detail than just summarizing the list of recent sales. Her direct experience selling homes in the neighborhood allowed her to provide a perspective on the specific value of the property that we think other agents would have been hard-pressed to match. Her knowledge of all the ins and outs of the listing and transaction paperwork is equally extensive. Easy to contact and highly responsive. Mei was always easy to get a hold of either via cell phone or via email. All email messages were returned promptly, and she was very proactive in her communication to explain the process and what was going on each step of the way. Positive attitude. Mei’s confidence in being able to prepare the house quickly and to sell it quickly was much appreciated. She was upbeat in every interaction we had with her over the course of 2 months. Always delivered what she promised. Never once did she fail to keep a commitment, an appointment, or fail to follow-through on something that she had promised to provide. Our particular deal had a couple of interesting nuances, and she just powered through the details with poise and skill. Awesome staging skills. When Mei was done, our 5 year old Robins Run’s property looked even better than brand new models in Rivermark! She really knows what she is doing on this front, and has a great eye for making a house look perfect. High integrity. You can be sure that Mei will treat all those involved in any real estate transaction with the utmost integrity and fairness. Great results. Mei devised a sales strategy that after only one week on the market in May 2006 resulted in 10 offers and ultimately landed us a final offer well above our listing price, which was quite reasonable to begin with. We could not have been happier with the final outcome. It is always a pleasure to work with people who are simply fantastic at their respective jobs, and so it was a great experience to work with Mei. She radiates competence. We give her our strongest possible recommendation, and would not hesitate to use her services again the next time we buy and/or sell a property.
Sincerely, Jill and Jim -------------------------------------------------------------- Mei, Karen and I would like to express our appreciation for everything that you have done for us with the sale of our Thanks to your expert knowledge of the real estate market in our area, we were able to sell our home within just two weeks and at a higher price than what we had anticipated. Finally, we appreciate your friendly and professional assistance, being there during our appraisal and home inspection, explaining all of the legal documents, and keeping us informed of the status throughout the entire process. This has been, by far, the smoothest real estate transaction that we have experienced. If you should ever need a reference, Karen and I would not hesitate to offer a ringing endorsement for your services!! Thanks again for everything!!! :o)

This is a testimonial to the excellent service that Mei has provided us as both a Buyer's and well as Seller's Agent. My husband and I sought Mei’s service after observing her work around our area, especially selling our neighbors house that had a floor plan exactly like ours. As a seller’s agent, Mei has been exceptionally knowledgeable about property values around our neighborhood as well as market conditions and trends. She provided us with a thorough analysis of the property prices in the area and suggested a comparable yet competitive sales price. In fact, once we decided to sell, she did such a good job with prepping and staging our house and marketing it with signs, brochures, listings and networking (all within a matter of a week), that we got an offer the day we listed. Again, through her excellent negotiation, we sold the house the next day at a higher-than-list-price. She also guided us exceptionally diligently through all the paper-work involved in the process. As a buyer’s agent, Mei as been simply outstanding! My husband and I had very specific criteria for our new house as we decided to upgrade, and we turned out to be finicky buyers. Mei quickly perceived what we wanted in the new house, and was very patient through the entire process. She would always make herself available at our convenience to view and tour homes whether weekdays or nights. She would present a detailed analysis of the homes and neighborhoods very promptly whenever any potential opportunity arose. She educated us in the home buying process, what we should look for, and factors that would or not be favorable in the hunt for the ideal home for our needs. She was always there and NEVER pushy. That is what I found most commendable about her. Finally, when we did like a house that fit all our criteria, she helped us write and negotiate a creative offer in a multiple-bid scenario. Since it was a house that we wanted to remodel, she even helped us with referring contractors and material showrooms. She also has an excellent sense for interior design, so I have also used her advice as we are remodeling our home. In summary, I am very thankful that Mei supported and represented us in our transactions in such a positive manner. I highly recommend Mei to all potential buyers and sellers, and would not hesitate to use her services again for any of my real estate needs.

Hi, Mei, I want to express my appreciation for all your efforts in selling my single family home at 1155 White Pine Ter, I truly commend your diligence and honesty throughout the whole process of preparing the house, performing all relevant inspections and the eventual sale of the property. I would be more than happy to provide any references and would highly recommend you to any prospective real estate clients. Sincerely,

We have recently sold our house at On our first appointment itself, Mei impressed us with her professional attitude, her knowledge of the neighborhood real estate activities, her approach to selling the house, her honest and realistic estimate of the ballpark selling price range of our house. Since then until our house got sold, Mei worked very hard and diligently to perform all her responsibilities and exceed our expectation. We couldn?t have asked any more. She is very honest, genuine and a great negotiator. She is always on top of everything and a perfectionist and that has impressed us a lot. Mei had staged our house with an impeccable contemporary style and with a very good sense of aesthetics and attention to detail. We have been many model homes including the ones in Rivermark community in Santa Cara. The way Mei Ling staged our house was at par with those model homes. During the process of selling our house, I had asked Mei many questions and she had always answered all my questions very patiently and helped us in many aspects of house selling including getting us the contact of the carpet cleaner, home inspection company etc etc. For the last few years, we have been looking for buying a home in House is one of the biggest asset of every one of us and one must find a very good and professional realtor whom one can trust and depend on 100% in selling or buying a house and who can help each of us get the best possible value of our house. I am very happy to say that we were very lucky to have found Mei Ling as one of the best realtors and I would very highly recommend her to anyone who wants to either buy and/or sell home.
Sanjoy and Mousumi Roy,

If anyone is looking to sell their property, we had a very pleasant experience with Mei Ling at Century 21. We bought a Rivermark Glen home from her and sold our Rivermark Greens in less than a week. We only had one open house and three very good , competitive, and a lot more than asking price offers. She is very hard working and caring. She helped us with the move, cleaning and staging.
