Shawna Jones

We had a terrific experience working with Shawna! What we loved most about Shawna was: 1. Shawna is determined and diligent. She is highly action oriented and can move quickly and efficiently. She works really hard for her clients. 

2. She has high attention to detail. Buying a home means reviewing hundreds of pages of disclosures and other documents; Shawna was always super sharp and flagged many points we had missed in our initial reviews 

3. Shawna is super well connected with agents across the Bay Area. These connections were extremely valuable as we conducted our search 

4. Shawna CARES deeply about her clients. She invested in learning about us as people and her work always came with a very appreciated personal touch. We feel really fortunate to have worked with Shawna and would highly recommend her to all. 

Thank you for your amazing partnership, Shawna!

Had a great experience working with Shawna! My partner and I were first time home buyers and complete novices. Shawna was patient, attentive, and encouraging throughout the process. She was constantly finding new listings for us to review that fit our criteria and was highly available to attend open houses, review disclosures, and answer our general questions.

When it came time to make an offer, Shawna helped us navigate a tricky counter situation and got our offer accepted, despite not being the highest. She then smoothly got us through a 16 day close. Couldn't have had a better experience or ended up with a more perfect home!

Closing on our dream home just before the new year in our ideal neighborhood was an absolute delight, all thanks to the exceptional guidance and support from Shawna and Angelo! From the moment we met Shawna, her partnership with Angelo became an invaluable asset to our home-buying journey. Her patience was evident as my partner and I navigated through different East Bay neighborhoods to find our perfect fit. What truly amazed us was Shawna's unparalleled proactiveness. I'd send her a list of 4-5 homes I planned on seeing and within a few days she'd provide detailed summaries tailored to our preferences, saving us an immense amount of time and effort. Her efficiency was really game-changer; she even sent us disclosures beforehand so we could swiftly identify deal breakers before setting out to view homes.
(We really loved that.)

When we identified the home we wanted to make an offer on, Shawna's was extremely prompt. She gathered crucial information from the seller's agent, keeping us updated on the home's status and interest levels. This allowed us to craft a competitive offer with confidence. Throughout the escrow process, Shawna remained our beacon, ensuring we were well-informed. Her support extended really above and beyond our expectations; she was there for us during moments of stress, offering solutions and kind words when needed (like when I made an error transferring our earnest money she was there to solve and mitigate).

Meeting Shawna was a bit serendipitous for us, but we are glad we had the opportunity to work with both her and Angelo as a team. Their expertise, proactive approach, and unwavering support made our home-buying experience not just successful but genuinely enjoyable. We consider ourselves incredibly fortunate to have had Shawna and Angelo by our side not just as our agents but just as amazing human beings that really helped us attain one of our 2023 goals!

Shawna- Thank you, we can’t wait to share with you what we do with our new home!

I am a first time condo buyer who worked with Shawna and had a very good experience. She guided me on points to consider in submitting my offer to maximize the chance of success, quickly answered all of my questions, and really helped me strategize through the offer process. Once my offer was accepted, Shawna made sure I knew how the closing process would work and what to expect. I know it took lots of behind the scenes work, but Shawna made getting to closing very smooth and easy for me and was great at connecting me with a local lender, insurance agent and anything else I needed throughout the process. I would definitely work with Shawna again and recommend her!

I would give Shawna 10 stars if it were possible to do so! She is outstanding and I feel really grateful that my husband and I were able to work with her. As first-time home buyers, we were overwhelmed by the process and not even sure if it would be possible for us to purchase a house in the super competitive Bay Area market. Shawna immediately put us at ease with her thoughtfulness, patience, and understanding. She is kind, supportive, and knowledgeable. We felt like we were working with the very best real estate agent. After every single interaction with Shawna, we would say to each other: "Isn't she the best?!" Without her guidance, we wouldn't be the proud owners of our dream house. I would recommend her wholeheartedly to my family and friends. Thank you, Shawna! - Maria Z.

Shawna was an incredible partner, and we're absolutely thrilled with the home we found with her. As first-time buyers, we felt a bit overwhelmed by the competitive Bay Area market, but Shawna helped us proactively to understand the macro trends, neighborhood nuances, and specific details to look for in every house that interested us. We really felt like we had an insider's view of how to approach the market. We officially closed about two weeks ago after only our second offer! Our new house is in our dream neighborhood, which we honestly didn't think we could get into when we first started looking. Throughout the whole process, Shawna gave us great guidance and patiently answered all of our questions. I'd recommend her with no hesitation.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Shawna! As a first-time home buyer, the process was incredibly daunting and complex. However, with Shawna's guidance, I was able to navigate it to find the perfect home for me and my son. She is incredibly knowledgeable about the market and very clear when communicating with me and/or other agents. Shawna was also very helpful in supporting me through all the details of the process with kindness. She was a great advocate for me when the communication with the escrow company was unclear, or the seller was not following through. She is incredibly professional, and she also made house shopping so fun! I could tell she really cared about helping me find the perfect home for my little family and not rush through the process. I could not recommend Shawna enough! -Alexandra A.

We feel so fortunate to have found Shawna. We were going to be house hunting from the other side of the country. Shawna understood what we were looking for and was able to advise us on neighborhoods, value, and quality of a home. She responded in a timely manner to the countless emails, texts, and phone calls we peppered her with during our search. She kept us well-informed on the status of any offer we made. After a few months of a roller coaster ride of searching, Shawna was able to help us purchase a lovely home in Oakland. We would recommend Shawna without reservation. She is not only knowledgeable and efficient, but a lovely person to work with. -Cathy D.
