After about spending a year with my previous real estate agent, who was super inconsistent on inquiring about properties. In the meantime they’re gone! So I decided to switch!Lena Williams and Gerri Asuncion provided an exceptional real estate experience! Their responsiveness and attention to detail in the fast-paced Bay Area market were truly impressive. They navigated my inquiries with speed and thoroughness, ensuring I was well-informed throughout the process. Lena and Gerri's expertise shone as they not only explained every detail but also identified lucrative investment opportunities. Rather than just sending automated email, they would actively pick little gems which they thought I might like, and I finally found my Home. Their dedication turned what could have been a daunting process into a seamless and rewarding venture. Highly recommend this dynamic duo for anyone seeking top-notch real estate professionals!Kar Bath

My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Fan and Ramon to purchase our first home! They were kind and met us where we were. We didn’t feel any pressure and we felt like we were on the same team and that we could trust them. Fan was always available by phone regardless of the time. She was even available to answer some questions after we closed. I’d highly recommend them as they made a great team! ?

I’ve worked with Danny / Winkler Real Estate on three separate purchase/sale transactions (two personal, one professional). For East Bay, these are the guys. I could recommend them more. The team is amazing, Danny is incredibly accessible. The personal touch is amazing. Oh yeah, and they get deals done!

Gerri and Lena are an amazing team. With a tight budget, and some very specific criteria from my partner, they were still able to find a wonderful home for us. Great schools, good yard, updated inside, and all the other check list items - but still in budget, even with the high interest rates. If you’re looking for a low pressure but problem solving team, this is it. Loving my house more every day still - thanks ladies! 5+ stars!

We worked with Jackie and she helped us buy our first home! She was always available to show us places and was so friendly to us and to all the sellers we met. She was very communicative during the entire process. She had such a positive attitude and was very experienced. We're very happy that we chose Winkler Real Estate Group.

My wife and I really appreciate how professional, reliable, and friendly Jackie was. She was very helpful with the whole process of buying our first home. She was quick to respond to all our texts and we enjoyed visiting many homes with her. If you need a realtor, Jackie is the one!!!

We were fortunate to use two excellent agents at Winkler. Lena S. and Gerri A. These two helped us find our property at 2832 Tradewind Ct Alameda, CA. They are both extremely experienced and detailed oriented and found us several great choices in this current tough market. We are so delighted with our new place. Lena and Gerri worked through all the complications of dealing with the condo seller/builder and helped us guide is in the financing/loan process. We have worked with Lena and Gerri on other properties and they always do a wonderful job for us whether we are buying or selling. Many thanks team!

My fiancée and I worked with Ramon and Fan from the Winkler Real Estate Group to purchase our first home in Berkeley. We are both thrilled with our experience working with both and would highly recommend (especially for 1st time homebuyers). Ramon and Fan went above and beyond to answer all of our questions, educate us on the process, coach us on making competitive offers, and acted very fast/were very available. Thanks Ramon & Fan!

Stefan Brunnschweiler at Winkler Real Estate Group helped us to purchase our first condo in 2002, then helped us sell it in 2023. He also represented us when we bought a single-family home in El Cerrito in 2022. Stefan is personable, professional, responsive and knowledgeable about the East Bay real estate market. We had a difficult time with the sellers when we bought our home last year, and Stefan patiently guided us through the negotiations and interactions with the lender and escrow companies. He prepared our condo for sale last fall and held numerous open houses and private showings. We ended up taking it off the market for 6 months until interest rates stabilized and the market started turning around. Stefan suggested we put it on the market when inventory was low this spring and he found a buyer in no time! We would recommend Stefan and the Winkler Real Estate Group for any property listing or purchases, especially in the East Bay.

Danielle, Jeffrey, Julia, and Laura (Laura & Danielle's team) are a phenomenal real estate group. We were long-time renters in the SF Bay Area and had nearly given up hope on our ability to buy a home. Thankfully, we found the A-team (Laura & Danielle's team!) that enabled us to buy a beautiful home that met our needs in the notoriously competitive--and fickle--SF Bay Area housing market.Laura & Danielle's team kindly accompanied us to see many homes: they did not hesitate to drive over bridges, meet us after work, on weekends, or any other time we asked to meet up with their team. We had unique needs that were no match for their expertise; whenever we suggested looking at a different neighborhood or city, they were able to provide spot-on recommendations and unique insights that enabled us to further refine our search. Eventually, we were successful in bidding on a lovely craftsman home in the Elmwood neighborhood of Berkeley.In addition to being a tremendous realty team, we trust them implicitly and were impressed with their high ethical standards. They did not try to force fit us into a home that would exceed our budget - they were also forthcoming about when a home needed work or homes that seemed like "deals" when, in reality, they would likely end up being financial albatrosses over the long-term. The team's background in construction and contracting proved to be especially valuable in this very tight and competitive real estate market.In summary, we give Laura & Danielle's team our highest recommendation and would unequivocally turn to this All-Star team again for our next home purchase or sale in the SF Bay Area.Peter + Dori M.

We found Laura by reading her teams' amazing reviews and I'm excited to be contributing back to their well earned accolades. If you're looking for Realtors with expertise in the East Bay - look no farther.We worked most closely with Laura and Jeffery for our search to buy a home in Albany and they were fantastic to work with. Albany is difficult to buy in because of the low inventory and they were incredibly patient and always game to check out just about every home that came on the market with us. Jeffery was incredibly knowledgable about home construction, renovations and had remarkable attention to detail in reviewing quality and disclosures. Their support even continued after the purchase with connections to contractors for initial improvements to the home and checking in with the property before we moved in.We couldn't be happier with our new home and I can't image closing the deal without them. This team is flexible, generous with their time, incredibly knowledgable and well connected in all the right ways. Their estimates for purchase prices were spot on and they were able to get the inside scoop to give us the edge on final negotiations.Call this team - you won't be disappointed.

I have purchased two properties through Winker group and rented one property. My daughter too purchased a property through them. I have worked with Danny Winkler (broker) and Tom Coble (RE agent). They are both very knowledgeable on home values on different East Bay localities. They gave me good advice on which properties merit serious consideration and roughly how much they would sell for. I trust their judgement and would recommend Winkler group for home purchase and property management.

Thanks to Fan and Ramon, we couldn't have asked for a smoother home buying experience. Fan and Ramon were always a text or a phone call away to answer our many questions as first time homebuyers. We appreciated that they really took the time to get to know us and understand what we were looking for in a home, even when we weren't so sure ourselves. Their efficiency and collective knowledge as a team was truly unmatched and they were able to guide us seamlessly through the process. While other realtors may be looking out for their commission, Fan and Ramon proved to really have our best interests at heart. We sincerely would not have been able to purchase our first home without them, and we are beyond grateful to have had them (and continue to have them) on our side

Fan was an absolute joy to work with and everything we could ask for in a realtor: knowledgeable, meticulous, and genuinely warm. As first-time homebuyers, we thought that we would never be able to buy in the Bay Area! But Fan's proactive approach in getting us a private tour of the home and submitting/presenting our offer before the home's first official open house really helped us clinch the home of our dreams. She was with us every step of the process, helping us transition from "just looking" to "putting in an offer" all the way to closing. So much of the home-buying process is shrouded in mystery, and it seemed all the scarier in the competitive markets of the Bay Area. Fan eagerly answered all of our questions and provided much need reassurance to us as anxious homebuyers. She took the time to understand our needs, both significant and trivial. Fan always centered us, our needs, and our concerns in the process: by getting to know us as people, she helped us make informed decisions to meet our goals. She was genuinely invested in helping us to find not just a house, but a home.
