★★★★★
"I recently purchased my first home with Kalena Masching's assistance. Her research and organizational skills created the most efficient use of our time together. Kalena is an energetic professional who brings practical experience and rational optimism into the real estate purchasing process. Thank you Kalena for your help and guidance."

★★★★★
"Kalena did a fantastic job selling my condo! She organized everything that needed to be done to prepare (from new carpet to minor repairs to staging), sent out flyers, and ran open houses. I wound up closing with a better offer than expected, much sooner than I'd expected to. I would unreservedly recommend her to anyone looking for a real estate agent."

★★★★★
"Kalena is the best! She helped me purchase a condo about a year ago, and I must say, she was excellent throughout the entire process. From our very first realty conversation, where she patiently and comprehensively laid out all of my options in a way that was easy to understand, all the way until the final closing and beyond, her approach was friendly, enthusiastic, and passionate. Even when the seller messed everything up and delayed our closing, she never lost faith, even when it looked like I might lose the condo; but thanks to her dedication and follow-through, she pulled it off, and got a bit extra knocked off my closing costs too! At all points in the process, she was available at any time for questions or to allay my concerns. It really was like working with a realtor who was also a best friend. I can't recommend Kalena enough!"

★★★★★
"I have known Kalena for most of her life and have been impressed with her professionally as well as personally. She was instrumental in the sale of our family home of 47 years in 2012. Since that time she has been acting as our property manager for a rental property of ours which has been in the family even longer. My sister and I have been absentee landlords and Kalena acted promptly and efficiently when a contractor took advantage of us feloniously and was able to rectify and rent the property nin a timely fashion. Currently, Kalena is now representing my sister and I in the sale of our final Palo Alto property. I would not hesitate an instant to recommend Ms Masching as a competent, hard working, reliable realtor."

★★★★★
"Kalena is great to work with. We spent a fair bit of time looking at places. She was able to guide me through the process of finding just the right place. Our offer was accepted on the place I really wanted and she handled the deal on time and at less than the predicted closing costs. I would use her again without a doubt."
