We would highly recommend Leslie Heinrichs and Ian Humphries based on the excellent services they provided us with selling our home in Cupertino, CA.  They were referred to us by our neighbors who listed and sold their home with them.  Prior to listing out home, Leslie and Ian provided advice to us in preparing our house for sale.  We knew our home needed some updates and they helped us to determine the best choices for kitchen remodeling, floor coverings, choice of colors and contractors.  They also coordinated inspections, and termite work for us so our house was totally ready to go on the market.  After the updates, they helped us with staging and the best marketing plan for our home.  There is no doubt their efforts helped us achieve the highest selling price possible.  When it was time for the first open our house our home looked truly sharp and also showed well on the "virtual tour" which was prepared by them to show the house on-line.  They did an excellent job on the open house and we were fortunate to receive multiple offers within a short time.  Leslie and Ian prepared comparisons of the offers for us including the strengths and weaknesses of each offer so we could make an informed decision.  Once we selected the best buyer offer, they helped us negotiate the best deal we think was possible.  After offer acceptance, Leslie and Ian kept us informed during the escrow process took care of all the details.  We feel they were very professional throughout the process, and in addition really helped us on a personal level to get us through the emotional time of selling the home our kids grew up in.  We would definitely utilize them again, and would recommend them.  – Eric & Jan Hurst

Truly knowledgeable real-estate representation is a rare find. Leslie and Ian are by far the best that we've ever worked with. Leslie and Ian handled our real-estate sale very professionally. They advised us on items that could be addressed to maximize our selling price and even negotiated with contractors on our behalf. They created buyer demand quickly, offering us at least 6 very compelling offers to choose from in less than 2 weeks. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for experienced and consultative real-estate professionals who genuinely have their clients' best interests in mind.

We met Leslie and Ian at an open house and were impressed with their low pressure, down-to-earth style. So, when we stumbled upon our dream house, we didn't hesitate to call them and ask for last minute representation. They helped us sell our starter home quickly and made sure we knew what we were doing by taking us on a tour of other homes in the same price range as our dream house. When we were sure we wanted the house, they kept on top of a hairy situation and through a series of fortunate events and tenacity on their part, had our old home sold and the new one purchased on the same day. Their persistence and connections made what seemed like a crazy, last-minute move an exciting reality for our family. We couldn't be happier with our new home.

Our experience working with Leslie and Ian as our real estate brokers was as good as it gets.

We chose to go with Leslie and Ian largely based on our personal relationship with Leslie.  She always demonstrated a high level of honesty and personal integrity.  It was no surprise that both she and Ian maintained that same high level as real estate professionals.

 Throughout the different phases of the sales process, Leslie and Ian always maintained good communications.  They were always very accessible and responsive to questions and concerns.  There guidance through pre-sale preparation was excellent, and set the stage for the best possible presentation of our home.  We felt very confident following their advice on pricing and sales strategy based on their knowledge and understanding the current pulse and heart beat of the real estate market.  As a result we sold our home for more than we expected, and could not have been happier.  I particularly appreciated there post-sale follow-up.  During this time the new buyer raised several issues asking for our response.  Ian was great handling and resolving the issues. 

 Based on our experience, there is no question that we highly recommend Leslie and Ian to anyone interested in making a real estate transaction.

A close friend recommended your services and she had wonderful things to say about both of you. We were thrilled to meet you and see for ourselves how personable and helpful you were. We were absolutely happy with all forms of communication even after the process was over. Whenever we had any questions, you were both always immediately responsive and had very helpful information including contact names for various services (contractors, etc.).
Buying a home is stressful and confusing, but you both did a great job helping us understand the process better, and assure us that everything was on track. The market was difficult at that time (multiple offers), but we feel like we got a very good deal on our home, because of your experience in the market and the process you were able to contact the agent representing the seller even before the For Sale sign was posted infront of the house. We had a huge advantage over every other potential buyer.
We will definitely recommend your services and wish we knew more people who were ready to sell or buy a home.  It was an absolute pleasure to work with both of you.
