Christina Spaulding

Christina was amazing to work with from start to finish. She was incredibly professional, courteous and responsive. She patiently answered all of our questions and walked us step by step through selling our home. She had great connections all along the way, from contractors and gardeners to stagers and, ultimately, other realtors which led us to sell prior to listing for significantly more than we asked for. Most importantly, Christina is a genuinely kind and caring person who is a pleasure to work with. Our kids loved when ‘Miss Christina’ came to visit, and working with her was a truly enjoyable experience. I recommend her completely and without hesitation.

Christina did a fantastic job assisting us with selling our house! Her knowledge of the area and current market trends was right on point. She listened to us and thoroughly addressed any questions we had. She was always punctual and really came through on everything she said she would. Her organizational skills were beyond compare. She is the utmost professional, yet friendly and personable. She made me feel like a friend from the start! She will always be my "go-to" realtor, and I highly recommend her to anyone selling or buying a home.

Christina was exceptional to work with. We were very pleased with the buying process working with Christina from start to finish. Unlike few others we’ve interacted with who start the conversation with budget and pre-approvals, Christina took time in our first meeting to know us and our family better and to understand our requirements from space, neighborhood, community and culture. She took time for research before getting back to us with any recommendations. We really appreciate Christina’s consultative approach on all ideas, details and solutions. Very organized and extremely patient, always put our interest first and never pushed us to close on any of the showings. At closing as well, directly followed-up with the lenders, escrow, insurance, etc and ensured a smooth closing process. Christina continued and continues to check-in to see if we need any help with local contacts for household services. I haven’t seen a lot of agents who do this post closing. So, while we have a new friend in the neighborhood, we strongly recommend Christina to find you your home!

Knowledgeable, professional and a great communicator. We got the full package when we asked Christina to help us sell our home. It had been over 25 years since we had previously done this. A lot has changed. And we had the challenge of doing this in such a volatile time. Months in advance of putting the house on the market Christina guided us through a game plan with options on preparing the house, market conditions and elements of the sale that were important to us. Communication was constant and consistent, giving us plenty of data and information to guide us through our decisions. Looking back, we know we made the correct decision and know others will be impressed and at ease working with Christina.

"It is our pleasure to recommend Christina Spaulding to anyone who has the need for a real estate agent to represent them. Her knowledge, professionalism and commitment to her clients makes her the perfect person to have on your side when navigating the stressful real estate market. We consulted with Christina several months before we listed our house. She spent hours answering our questions and educating us on the process of selling a house. Christina impressed us with her extensive knowledge of the local market by preparing a pricing strategy that would get our home maximum exposure and net us the result that we wanted. She also gave us excellent advice on how to prep our house for sale and provided referrals for vendors who were professional, timely and reasonably priced. Christina's marketing of our home was exceptional. She had multiple strategies to generate interest in our home. The professional pictures (including the overhead drone pictures) showed our house to its best advantage. The listing went live on a Monday and there were multiple showings before the broker tour on Thursday and the open houses on Saturday and Sunday. By Monday night we were thrilled to have 14 offers (almost all above asking price) to consider. As exciting as it was, the multiple offers were overwhelming. Again, Christina's expertise was evident as she helped us navigate each offer. There were multiple things to be considered and she had done follow up with several agents and mortgage brokers before presenting the offers to us. When we did decide on an offer to accept, we felt secure that we had made a well informed decision. It should also be noted that Christina also successfully negotiated a rent back for us which was key to our future plans. On a final note, our gratitude to Christina was magnified when the COVID crisis resulted in a shelter in place order a few days after we went under contract. Her ability to sell our house quickly saved us from the stress of wondering what would happen during those unprecedented times."

"Christina was our buying agent during a very unexpected purchase. Within the hour of me telling her my rent had increased, she had the perfect property picked out. She had the exact location, budget, condition, and size immediately narrowed down. She gave great advise on the offer, timing, and negotiations. Christina responded and worked all hours of the day and even on vacation to ensure she was on top of everything with the entire process. Christina was the most organized agent and literally planned everything perfectly. She was beyond AWESOME. We would highly recommend Christina to any buyer or seller. She is extremely knowledgeable."

"Christina was a consummate professional throughout our home buying process. She was always quick to respond to our requests and questions at all times, and as trying as things could be, she was always very thoughtful and considerate. We knew she had our best interests at heart."

"Christina was our agent on the buying end of a relocation coming from a different state. She did a fantastic job of finding out what we wanted and setting up a customized search for us. Christina has amazing knowledge of the area, neighborhoods and schools. Having relocated herself, many times, she was very empathetic to the challenges associated with relocating from another state. She was also was so patient and helpful with us as we learned to navigate the much trickier East Bay housing market. Christina found our home the day it went on the market and worked around the clock with our lender and the seller's agent to close the deal in just a matter of weeks. I don't know what we would have without all of her help. She continues to help me as needed when I need a referral or have a question. We feel so fortunate to have found a beautiful home for our family in the desired time frame so we could enroll our children in school. Overall, a great experience and I would highly recommend Christina!"

"Christina turned my hope into a reality. She heard any concerns as they came up and made sure I had all of the information I needed to make a decision AND fully understand the process. I really appreciated Christina's patience in making sure I considered my options and felt confident in my purchasing decision."
- Michelle

"It was amazing working with Christina. We were apprehensive about buying a house in the US as it was our first time here, but thanks to Christina's guidance and help, the whole process was a smooth and happy experience. Apart from being a thorough professional, she lends a personal touch to the buying experience and you have a friendly support to sort out issues when you are stuck. Really appreciate and highly recommend working with her."

"I would highly recommend Christina! Christina helped me to sell my single-family home in San Leandro in the wintertime. Although the market was slow in November and December, Christina worked with me and suggested different renovations and remodels that would get the best ROI. She specifically did not advise on other renovation projects that she didn't think would be worth doing. She was very responsive throughout the whole process and gave sound explanations for the pricing strategy we ended up going with. With all the work in premarketing the property, strategic pricing and renovations, we came out with a lot of attention and received strong offers within a couple days."

"Before choosing a real estate agent I researched to see who would be the best choice based on the investment they make into selling our house. We decided to go with Christina Spaulding and we are happy to say we made the right decision. We spoke with Christina and then met with her at our home. She spent hours answering our questions, providing objective data regarding how many homes they sell, how long their listings typically stay on the market, and providing a lot of information regarding houses that are being sold in the area. Our house is on a hill with a great view, so we were pretty sure it would sell fast but we had no idea that it would basically sell the first day. When we saw our listing we were blown away. Christina had professional photography come in and take photos inside and he used a drone outside to capture our view of the bay. Her hard work and knowledge of what it takes to sell a home really paid off - our listing looked amazing and knocked out the competition. Once our house was officially placed on the market, we received an offer within 8 hours. The house was off the market after the first week. I would highly recommend Christina if you are in search of a realtor."
