"Seriously Herman and his team are dream boats. I'm cynical in that I think most modern realtors are armed with technology to be responsive and pretty connected but Herman doesn't sleep and is a supreme advisor to boot. He's been around the block and is an expert in the field. We relied heavily on him as an advisor all along the way, which is why we will always work with him."

"Herman was great to work with. Professional and knowledgeable. Great communication and always available. Coordinated perfect photos and inspections quickly and at our convenience. We interviewed 3 top realtors and loved the enthusiasm and energy Herman brought to the sale. Herman is well connected in the area and brought many potential buyers to see our property immediately."

"If you're buying a house, especially in the Bay Area, it's a huge advantage to have Herman on your team. He makes it look easy, but he works super hard and is a real pro."

"This review is past due but after recommending Herman Chan to my own mother and everyone I know who is trying to buy a home in the crazy Bay Area market, it's time to give some credit where it's due.
My wife and I had been looking to buy in Alameda for YEARS. We were working with a sweet old lady, who bless her heart, helped us write numerous offers and in her very old school way, comforted us as each offer was rejected. We had all but given up on ever becoming homeowners when we were introduced to Herman Chan. Honestly, my opinion of real estate agents was forever altered as it immediately became apparent that Herman is a total PRO."

"Herman is above and beyond amazing! I've had the pleasure of working with him for two separate home purchases and he has consistently provided stellar service. He answers calls and emails promptly. He's smart, professional, and reliable (and has a fun sense of humor).
Here's one example of his awesomeness. During our most recent purchase, while we were in contract for the home, the house was vandalized. When we found out, Herman came to meet us at the house, walk through it noting the damage, and fought on our behalf to get the house repaired back to its original state before our loan lock expired. Despite the fact that we were stressed and worried about repairs, and the seller living in another city, Herman helped us keep a cool head with frequent updates while simultaneously working his tail off to keep the sale on track and the sellers on schedule. I'm so glad we had him.
If you're buying a house, especially in the Bay Area, it's a huge advantage to have Herman on your team. He makes it look easy, but he works super hard and is a real pro."

"Herman deserves 100 stars. 5 is not enough! He has incredible energy and patience and never rushed us at all. He is unbelievably knowledgeable about all things real estate, and he knows everyone and everyone knows him. He also knows how to get tricky issues resolved in a fair and honest way. We just bought a house with Herman as our agent, and as bad as buying a house in these parts is, Herman made it far simpler and more enjoyable than we could have imagined, even with several curveballs during the process."

ADAM G. | VMware Director
"Herman Chan is a stellar realtor. There are some times in life when you have to drop everything and acknowledge excellence. It's my pleasure to write a review for Herman because he did a phenomenal job for us. Everything he does is top flight. Herman came in and presented a plan that got our attention and made it easy to thank the other agents we spoke with. It's clear that he knows the market, the buying trends, pricing strategies, and most importantly how to correctly market a property to drive interest. Herman sold our house in 6 days. We received multiple offers after having over 90 people to our open house weekend."

"Herman, today is an awesome day for our family and we appreciate you soo much for your patience and guidance the past 5 months. Your professionalism and charm makes you great at what you do."
CHAR J. | Mercedez-Benz Sales Director
"Wish I could write a book about how awesome Herman is! Very responsive, patient, attentive, knowledgeable, realistic and absolutely HILARIOUS! I am forever grateful for the countless emails that he responded to when I was up panicking at 1:00am and he literally would respond 4 minutes later! I'm not big on writing reviews but I felt that if I didn't write one somebody else would miss out on the amazing experience that is Herman Chan! Is it possible to love your Realtor? Because I love mine!"
LAUREN & BRANDON | Christian Dior & Goldman-Sachs
"The best decision we ever made was choosing Herman to help buy our first home. As our home search processes unfolded we discovered many colleagues and friends who had worked with him before and all raved about him too! Once we found a home, he worked even harder to make sure we checked all the boxes, never once leaving any detail out. Finding a home in San Francisco can be tough and challenging, but Herman always saw the glass as half full. A joy to work with to say the least! He put a smile on our face with every email and call. He is a part of the family now and we can't wait to buy our next home with him too once our family grows!"
MOLLY B. | Executive Producer & Co-host at Big Picture Science
"Herman. Is. The. Best. It's that simple. He was our real estate agent when my husband and I sold our condo AND also when we bought a new house. Herman was on top of everything - he's efficient, smart, positive, knows the business, knows how to prioritize and keeping things moving. He was the one who spotted what would be our new (dream) house - and then talked us through our bid, kept track of paperwork, went out of his way to keep ahead of the details that would otherwise overwhelm a first time buyer/seller, even arranging to have a toilet fixed that broke a day before the condo went on sale. I blinked and the problem was solved. Herman made one of the most potentially stressful endeavors; house selling/buying - fun and EASY, if you can believe that. Everything feels as though it's in safe hands with him!"
