Stefan helped my husband and me buy a multiplex in Berkeley as an investment property. He was able to get us a great deal in a very competitive market. We are thrilled with our purchase. Stefan was responsive, easy to work with, honest and extremely knowledgeable about the local market. He showed us many properties before the one we ultimately purchased and always gave us a very clear assessment of the pros and cons of each property. I look forward to working with Stefan again in the future and highly recommend him.

We met with Stefan after deciding to sell our house in Oakland, California. Stefan came to the house offering his suggestions on what needed to be done in preparing the property for sale. After meeting with several other realtors, we decided on having McGuire Real Estate handle the sale of the property. Stefan was especially helpful in finding a good crew to paint and remodel the property. We were always impressed with Stefan's knowledge and experience on giving advice on what needed or didn't need to be done. He was always quick to respond to any inquiries. Because of his diligent work, we were able to get the house sold within 4 months. I would highly recommend Stefan as a realtor because of his professionalism, ease of working with, and punctuality in getting things done.

My brother-in-law and I met Stefan Isaksen when we decided to sell our house in California. Stefan came to evaluate the house and gave us a lot of valuable suggestions. He also made arrangement to have a professional work crew to clean and fix up the property. Stefan is hard working and was always punctual with his appointments. He is honest, knowledgeable and easy to work with. I will highly recommend him as a realtor because of his outstanding work ethics.

To put it plainly, Stefan changed our lives. He helped us find the perfect property for our needs and sell the properties we owned (which was complicated), stuck with us through every bump and wrinkle, and proved to be creative, savvy, tenacious, and personable. We can't recommend him enough!

It was a pleasure working with Stefan on buying my first property. He spent time to get to know me and understand what I was looking for in my first property purchase. Once he understood my goals, he worked hard to find properties that would meet my goals and was always very responsive to my questions and concerns throughout the process. I appreciated Stefan's pragmatic approach because he laid out the pros and cons of how each property meshed with my goals. He spent time to visit properties with me and answer all my questions about each property. His general construction knowledge was helpful in understanding the condition of the property and potential fixes to consider. I ended up buying a triplex. Stefan is very well versed in the particulars of multi-unit properties, which helped ease my concerns about buying a triplex for my first home and transitioning to being a landlord. It's all worked out very well! Since buying my property in 2015, Stefan has kept in touch and he's continued to be an excellent resource for my new homeowner questions. I highly recommend Stefan and will definitely work with him again.

Stephan was instrumental in the acquisition of our "dream house". Not only did he patiently present properties for us, but he listened to our reactions. Subsequent properties were clearly filtered to remove prior objections. His attention to our wants and his persistence resulted in our doing better than we had thought possible. Additionally, he drew on a number of sources to help us through difficult obstacles that appeared as the process evolved. When Stephan's working on your behalf, you really feel like you've got some solid support on your side.

Working with Stefan was an absolute pleasure. He went above and beyond to counsel me on all of the options at my disposal and ensure I came out with the best possible results, both financially and personally. As a first-time homebuyer, his advice and knowledge were invaluable. I really don’t think I could have been in better hands. I got the home I wanted at the price I wanted thanks to Stefan, and once the purchase was complete, he continued to assist me with setting up contractors and making my move in as smooth as possible. I highly recommend Stefan to anyone looking for a thorough, honest and highly effective agent!
