Janet Akin

I am happy to recommend Janet and Dustin to others looking to buy or sell a home in the San Francisco Bay Area. We worked together with them on both the selling of our previous home and the buying of our new home and found them to be highly competent and professional in all respects. They brought a tremendous level of energy and enthusiasm to the task of selling our house and succeeded in generating a sa...

Now that things have settled down a "bit” we have time to reflect. We would unhesitatingly and enthusiastically recommend Janet Akin to anyone to sell a home in the Rose Garden. She carried us through the process of selling our parents' home; they had lived in that home for over 53 years. To us, 819 Morse Street was more than a house and she knew that. She sat down with us, explained how it would all wor...

I am pleased to write this letter of recommendation for Janet Akin. In later 2011, I engaged Janet to represent me in the sale of my parent's house in the Rose Garden area of San Jose. At our first meeting, Janet presented me with a detailed comparative market analysis providing information on recent sales of other homes near my parents' house. That analysis included a recommended listing price for the h...

We chose Janet to be our Realtor® for the sale of my mother's home. We live out of town and there were repairs and updating that needed to be done. Janet took full responsibility for getting estimates and picking out tile, paint colors, and other décor for the home. She spent unaccountable hours fulfilling our wishes. She met almost daily with someone to progress in getting the home up for sale quickly. ...

Janet Akin represented us in both the purchase and sale of our condo in San Jose, California. We found that her knowledge and professionalism were an extreme value in both situations. For the most recent sale of our condo, we had to move our family across the state and deal with Janet remotely. Working with her long distances has been easier than working with most other agents locally. She is responsive,...

I cannot recommend Janet Akin highly enough for her services as a real estate broker. She has made the process of selling and buying our homes effortless. She's smart, experienced, and extremely hard-working. My wife and I first met Janet in the fall of 2010. At the time, we were living with our 3-year-old son in a townhouse in the Japantown neighborhood of San Jose. We both worked at Stanford and were i...

Celia and I wanted to thank you for your assistance with our recent property purchase. We are extremely pleased and grateful for your help with the purchase of our new home in Morgan Hill. We were impressed by your attention to detail that we might not have considered, to both protect our interests and save money. I appreciate how much time, effort, and importance you placed on our real estate search. No...

We were very impressed with the level of professionalism and expertise you brought to the process. We want to thank you for the excellent follow-up communication with us at every step of the process. As you know, prompt and focused communications were specifically asked for at the time we interviewed, and you not only met but clearly exceeded those expectations. The home signage and pictures of the prope...

We both want to thank you for such an amazing house-buying experience. You made this one of the most pleasurable experiences one can have to buy their first home. We were blessed to have found you! Not only are you a superb, professional real estate agent but a wonderfully supportive friend! My Thanksgivings will always be joyous and thankful and grateful because of you making our dream come true! Thank ...

I was selling my house because I was relocating to a new job. My biggest worry was that I would not have enough time to get my house ready to sell. Janet did a great job finding contractors and making all of the arrangements for me. She also did a great job managing the contractors and making sure I got the most for my money, I would recommend Janet because she provided very good service that made it eas...

From a buyer and seller perspective, I want you to know how pleased I am with your professionalism. I never thought that a Realtor® would truly anticipate areas of concern and handle them before a problem arise. You deliver such a high level of service I never had a moment’s worry that something wasn’t being handled. I appreciate your friendship and expertise and look forward to referring your services t...

I just wanted to thank you for your help in this sale and purchase. Without you, none of this would be possible. I know you are just doing your job but there are many ways to do a job and you are amazing at it. Melissa, Savannah, Soda, and I are very pleased to have this team working for us. Thank you again for all your hard work.

Thank you! You well exceeded our expectations as our listing agent. Your diligent, confident, cheerful contributions made our move to Texas much easier for us.
