                      can we adequately express how pleasant it was to work with
                      you both? You were, from the first time we met, completely
                      reliable, intensely involved, and exceedingly competent
                      in each step involved in the sale of our Berkeley home! (more...) Michael & Andrea Scharff

                      and Carol were wonderful to work with. They answered the
                      phone when I called, or called me back the same day. They
                      called me with updates on what was happening. They actually
                      were present at the open houses that they had. Unbelievable! (more...) Joan Trombley, Residence Club

                      is 83 years old, so you have been particularly helpful
                      to both us in helping my dad through the transition of
                      the sale of his home of 49 years. (more...) Cindy Sparhawk & Edwin Wester

                  |  | We
                        had some skepticism about real estate agents. But the
                        Serkes’ approach and open communication style
                        quickly allowed us to relax, and we felt that our best
                        interests were being served. e never felt any pressure
                        to 'hurry up' and find something (even after seven months
                        of looking!) Once we finally did find our new home,
                      you were able to act quickly and professionally in preparing
                      our bid, and helped guide us to a winning buying price
                      in an extremely competitive market. (more..)Emily and Kevin Ahlvin

                      meeting you, we had bought a sign For Sale By Owner, and
                      wanted to sell our house by ourselves. After attending
                      your seminar at Nolo Bookstore, Berkeley, we were convinced
                      that an established marketing agent like your team would
                      be the way to go (more...) Samuel Ho and Mary Cheng

                      felt so comfortable, I decided to put the house on the
                      market with your assistance without ever going back to
                      California or meeting you personally. My decision was confirmed
                      throughout the selling process. (You are honest and straight-forward.

                      and Ira you were both wonderful to work with - always stating
                      clearly and calmly what you needed us to do next and providing
                      us with ample information and our options succinctly outlines
                      so we could make our decisions easily and quickly. Your
                      general attitude and seasoned negotiating skills reduced
                      our stress factor by 90%. And last but certainly not least
                      you sold the house in an amazingly short period of time
                      and for better than asking price. We are most grateful! (more...) John Rinn & Rebecca Fuller

                  |  | We
                        needed a real estate agent who would be understanding
                        of our needs, knowledgeable of the area, market, and
                        effective in bringing the sale to closure in a short
                        period of time. 
 We turned to a family member who had retired from the real estate business,
        for references. With no hesitation and with absolute confidence he recommended
        the Serkes... the Berkeley experts... who will take care of all your
        needs! Now we owe both the family friend and Ira and Carol Serkes team
        a great deal of gratitude! (more...)
