What My Clients
Have to Say.
Caroline and her team are amazing. We had a bad experience with a different Realtor Company. Once Caroline and her team came, our home was sold faster than what we expected. I recommend Caroline Hobbs 100%.
Caroline has recently helped me sell a condo in San Jose and buy another condo in Los Gatos. I can’t praise her work and her team’s work enough. She is knowledgeable, assertive yet pleasant. Always on top of things, always doing her best for her client.
Caroline has been everything we could hope for in a realtor. She has a deep understanding of the area and the housing market, and expertise in all the finer details that a prospective buyer may not consider or are generally uneducated on. She’s communicative, prompt and rigorously thorough and we always felt confident that she was looking out for our best interests. Her network of exceptional industry professionals is vast, and saved us time, money and sanity. We found Caroline by luck to buy our new home and didn’t think twice about working with her again to sell our current home. We would happily recommend her to anyone.
