Testimonials

Clients say this about Elyse.

“She has a high degree of integrity”

PROFESSIONAL

Elyse recently sold our home in Menlo Park and was an exceptional professional. She provided excellent advice and counsel for all the questions and actions we needed to address our move and sale. Elyse was always supportive when issues came up. She had solid relationships with all of the contractors we needed to prepare our home and in the end, under her guidance, our property was prepared for sale. She has a high degree of integrity not often seen these days which made us secure our interests were always in the forefront. I believe she truly believes that a home sale must be a win win for everyone as this is what makes her a strong professional. We are very happy to have met and worked with Elyse and Lisa. - F. Yambrach (Seller)

“In one week...she transformed our home into a highly attractive house for sale”

EFFECTIVE

My wife and I had finally begun our next stage of life commonly called "retirement." This meant we needed to find a new home that was less upkeep and sell our home of almost 20 years. Well, we found a new one and got an accepted offer! And now the hard part selling our home as quickly as possible in order to make the numbers work! That's where Elyse Barca comes in. Her years of professional marketing experience gave us the confidence that what we needed to do would work. In one week, she had painters, landscapers and even a new roof built. She transformed our home into a highly attractive house for sale and after the weekend open house, she sold it! She exceeded our wildest expectations. - J. Simons (Seller)

“I have never worked with anyone that gets it done like she does”

RESULTS

Elyse is the best! I have never worked with anyone that gets it done like she does. I told her I was in contract with another home and she came to my house the same day with her crew ready to get my house on the market. My home was completely transformed within five days! She is the hardest working person I have ever met. I love Elyse and highly recommend her to anyone that needs a Realtor. She knows everything about the market and is not afraid to bring in others to help her! She's the best! - J. Windsor (Seller)

“What clinched the decision was Elyse’s reputation”

Clearly with her intelligence, dedication and many years of experience, Elyse is as good as they get and we felt blessed to have her working for us. We never experienced the anxiety and terror that so many friends talk of and remember our time of house hunting with Elyse as a wonderful adventure with a great ending. - C. Clebsch (Buyer)

HELPFUL

Throughout the process, Elyse impartially translated the often confusing legal language and implications of the transaction and presented our options clearly to help us make informed decisions. The sale of the house involves both heart and pocketbook, and we are most appreciative of Elyse’s balance between professional expertise and personal empathy. - G. Chee (Seller)

Promises Delivered

Elyse Barca made selling our home easy and comfortable.
