"Kwesi was the best realtor my husband and I could have asked for, especially as first-time home buyers. He is patient and kind, and he helped us through the entire process while always remaining calm. He is very professional and on top of everything (even when the seller's realtor continued to drop the ball!). If you are looking to buy a home in the Bay Area, we highly recommend Kwesi--you will not regret it!" - Cynthia

"We were able to purchase a beautiful craftsman bungalow in North Oakland in our price range thanks to his excellent and astute guidance.We had been renting on the peninsula for 8 years and decided we’d like to buy a home and move out of the suburbs. Kwesi took the time to get to know us, our style, preferences, what we’d be willing to give up and what were the must haves. He did a terrific job showing us a variety of options and helped us think through price, location, home size, features, future changes. He asked very good questions when after we visited each open house to better inform him and his choices of homes for us to view. He really listened to our feedback. We felt that every home he selected for us to visit met our criteria or with some work could be the home we envisioned. Kwesi really understood how the Oakland market works. His guidance on list price vs. potential selling prices; value for the type of home, area were spot on. His knowledge of the neighborhoods, homes, and price range the homes would sell for was such an invaluable asset to our search. When it came time to put a bid in on the house, he was tremendous at making sure we were certain about the home, making sure we understood the disclosures, financing, what our final offer would be, gave us considerations and ways to counter. On top of all this Kwesi, is just such a nice person to work with; very professional but not super formal. We are so happy to have navigated the home buying journey with him!"

"My partner and I met Kwesi at an open house months before we were ready to start making offers. From that moment up until move-in day, he was with us every step of the way. We’re sure that his sound advice and expertise led to our offer being accepted on a home that had many other competitive offers. His knowledge of the area, its neighborhoods, and how the market works was invaluable to us. Furthermore, it is truly a pleasure to work with him. He’s personable, supportive, and realistic, and he answers questions clearly, thoughtfully, and patiently. Kwesi understood well what we wanted in a home; his advice was tailored to our needs and came earnestly, without any of that pushy sales speak. Andy and I highly recommend Kwesi to anyone interested in buying a home in the East Bay, and would without hesitation work with him again should the occasion arise!" - Alex and Andy

"I had the opportunity to work with Kwesi as he started his real estate business. I have nothing but great things to say about him. I know Kwesi as a warm, compassionate, goal-focused, and knowledgeable realtor. He's very well-versed in the ins and outs of how to buy your first home. I didn't know anything about real estate and, as a first-time home-buyer, I felt very taken care of by Kwesi because he knows his stuff! Plus, he's an absolute wizard at making a mouth-watering meal paired with the perfect home-made cocktail. When he's not in the kitchen or helping Bay Area home buyers find their dream home, he's out in the community, finding the perfect music venue or tracking down the hottest neighborhood. Kwesi knows the East Bay like no other! I highly recommend working with Kwesi." - Shelly
