What Others Say

Lex assisted us in looking for the best house we could get within our budget. He guided us through the whole process in great detail. He informed us about our chance and risk when we made every decision. Lex also helped us through the painful negotiation with the buyer when closing but we got what we wanted in the end!
by Joan and Dickson
Lex helped us buy a new property. But coming to the decision we had so much to thank Lex for. Lex took us to open houses in various locations in which he gave thorough explanation, experienced insight, practical suggestions but also left room for our individual perspective and decision making. He was always flexible to fit our needs and very patient to the process when we had to go back and forth on many details. He was very knowledgeable that made our well prepared that made the entire process smooth and fast. He also made excellent introduction to several mortgage officers that educated us a lot over the process. I have the highest recommendation on Lex and his team.
by Kathy and Gary X.
Lex was a great realtor with in-depth knowledge of Oakland, having done real estate there for many years. In additional, his experience as a real estate investor provided an invaluable perspective when looking at homes.
by Jixuan
I couldn't have feel more blessed to have Lex helped us buying our first home! Lex is very patient and analytical. He would give us a list of pros and cons for all the houses we've visited while leaving us plenty room for our perspectives. Lex is also very strategic in our bidding process, in the end he helped us succeed in getting a counter offer and saved us a good chunk of money! You won't go wrong with Lex as your agent like we did.
by Helen and Aaron
Lex educates me what to look for when I first buy a house so that I could make an informed decision. Lex is patient in the process of seeking for a house that worths bidding. Once I find the house that attracts my attention, he works with me to optimize my chance of making a successful bid. In my case, my offer price didn't outbid other buyers and I still got the house I wanted. I highly recommend Lex if you are looking for your dream house.

"We have been using the Cal Agents to help us manage our properties in Emeryville and have been very happy with the services provided. Recently, Diego conducted an annaul property check up and identified a few areas that require upkeep. Diego provided a very detailed report including pictures of areas for improvement. Once we agreed to the repair, Diego and team were very prompt in addressing the issues and provided another update post service. Overall, I would recommend the Cal Agent. Thank you Diego."
