"Alex is a safe harbor in the arduous and daunting Bay Area real estate market. His intellect and soft skills are unparalleled, and he’s very effective at supporting his sellers and buyers! "- J.B

"My experience working with Alex Michas transformed my understanding of what the REALTOR/Client relationship can be. Every step of the way, Alex was warm and compassionate, deeply knowledgeable, sensitive to our needs, straightforward, and practical. He served variously as therapist, design/architecture consultant, financial advisor, real estate guru and, ultimately, friend. His understanding of the Bay Area Real Estate landscape and the housing market more generally is deep and nuanced. His ability to accommodate our particular proclivities, schedule and priorities was supernatural. His intuition about how best to allot our resources and how to time our listing was spot on. He oversaw a complex year long renovation with an eye for detail and always an eye on our budget. And guided us through the subsequent offer process with patience and savvy. We always felt protected and in good hands. It would be impossible for me to more highly recommend a Real Estate Professional"- Dave R.

"To mention that Alex got us into our dream home is to undersell everything that he is. In the stormy waters of east bay real estate, Alex is nothing short of a life raft. You will not find a more considerate, knowledgeable, genuine ally. His depth of understanding of the market, experience in house renovations, and gentle, practical, no-pressure approach will have you cherish his counsel. He takes the time to understand you, to help you develop your vision, and then to bring that vision to life. He is the consummate professional. We feel lucky to have found him and couldn't imagine having done this without him."- Sina B.

"Alex is a total pro detail-oriented, patient, clear communicator, trustworthy, prompt, and savvy negotiator. We worked with Alex to prep, list, and sell our home. From helping identify the upgrades that made our home shine during staging to navigating complex bids, and from shepherding us through escrow to reprogramming our garage opener so that everything was in working order for the buyer, Alex does everything with integrity. He has a rare ability to design the strategy and execute the details. We're so pleased that we'll be working with Alex to purchase our next home. If you're looking for someone to help sell your home or buy a new one, we cannot recommend him highly enough."- Sam S.

"We worked with Alex and his team in 2022 to sell our home in Oakland. From the very beginning, Alex was professional, resourceful, and imaginative. After initially touring our house to obtain all the details, he asked insightful questions to ascertain the vision for our home. All along the way, he kept us up-to-date with detailed schedule estimates and progress. The improvements and staging that he oversaw were beautiful and completed in a short amount of time. He truly has a talent for bringing out the best in a home. With his help, we were able to enter a contract in less than a week. We cannot recommend him enough. Five stars all the way."- Jesse L.
