"Ella is the best. She helped us with our first home buy and we stick with her for so long time without reaching out other realtors. She is so professional that you do not have to worry about anything when you work with to buy or sell your properties!!!" - Kristy

"When we moved to the Bay Area, we came across Ella’s name as a solid real estate agent – and we’re thrilled we did. As a buyer when the market was seeing many multiple offers on homes, we were nervous about whether we’d ever land the home of our dreams. With Ella’s savvy thoughtfulness and aggressiveness, we put together the best offer we could that we felt would please the seller – and in the end we got the home! When we decided to sell it 6 years later, we knew Ella was the right person for the job. True to her promise, her smart sales tactics and sage advice landed us multiple offers in record time, and we settled on a great price. If you’re looking for a top-notch real estate agent whether you’re a buyer or a seller, don’t hesitate to go with Ella Sun – she knows the market, she is smart and strategic, she is always responsive, and she won’t stop advocating for you until you’re satisfied." - Matthew

"I have worked with Ella just recently for selling my house in Sunnyvale. We moved from Bay Area to Orange County in July and could not deal with Sunnyvale house ourselves. Ella has provided professional advice and great support to help everything for us. She gave us hassle-free experience. With her detailed recommendations and all follow-ups, the whole process is so smooth and successful even we are 400 miles away. I will definitely recommend Ella to anyone I know or who needs realtor services."
- Sheng and Vincent

"We first met Ella at an open house months ago. She guided us went through the whole buying process and helped us make comfortable and confident decisions. We bought our first house recently. Ella has strong communication skills in both Mandarin and English, and she is always accessible even at late night. Ella respected our needs all the time and we felt comfortable and happy to work with her. She had all the information we needed and was our single contact for all the services, ex. house inspection, HVAC evaluation, and foundation repairing... Ella handled the relationship with loan and seller agent very well during the process also, and she was masterful in negotiation strategies, got us credit from seller though we signed no contingency contract. Highly recommend Ella without any reservation."
- Yang

"Ella helped us buy our home recently. She is very responsive; she took our calls even in late night. She is very patient; she once spent several hours explaining all details about inspections. She works really hard; once our offer was not competitive even a little unreasonable she still tried her best. She is an expert; she knows everything in this business and her recommendation of changing some contingency term proved to be crucial. She is a warrior; she is capable of beating anything from higher price to cash offer. As first-time home buyer and under this competitive environment, we were lucky to have her. Oh, one last thing: even after we got the key, she is still doing her best to find the termite company for us! Will definitely contact her when we sell/buy our home in the future." - Song
