"We had the most incredible experience working with Charlene as our agent! She had a great understanding of the Los Gatos market, knew exactly what our needs were, was PATIENT, extremely responsive and knowledgeable and we felt she really advocated for us on the negotiation process with the sellers. I was thoroughly impressed at the level of service she provided and canāt imagine going through this process alongside anyone else. Even after closing, she had been a great resource and willing to answer questions about taxes, building permits, etc. She has an incredible eye for design, which was an added bonus, as she was able to help us visualize how our home could work for us. 10/10 would recommend Charlene!"-Bobbi & Nathan Vandegrift
