What Our Clients Say
Posted on Kejia Tang Kristin and Hans were fantastic! They were always very honest about what they thought about a house, the pros and the cons, whether it fit our needs, and were very accurate in predicting the price it would go for. We got our first written offer accepted and it's a wonderful house in a very tight market. They are very knowledgeable and very transparent, and we never felt pressure but great support along the way. They also have a great network of people - they introduced us to lenders who helped us close in 2 weeks, which was awesome. Highly recommended!Posted on Andrew Simmons We worked with Hans and Kristin to find a place in Alameda. They were great to work with as individuals. Fantastic to work with as a team. They each had different perspectives that were valuable and nuanced, and this helped us develop a fuller picture of the houses we viewed. We really came to value their insights into the potential, or lack thereof, of the properties we looked at. We bought a place that we are really stoked about. I wasn't excited about it at first though my partner was. Hans and Kristin helped me to see the potential in what I was looking at, and understand the space beyond my first impression. We ended up with a better situation than we thought was possible at our price point and we are very grateful... Also valued their aesthetic visions, patience, honesty, and steadiness.Posted on Brian Chevalier-Jordan I used the Gunderman Group to sell my condo recently and it was a terrific experience. I have been a real estate investor for 25+ years and I learned so much from David Gunderman in the 30 minutes I spent with him, it's remarkable. David shared strategies, ideas, and tips that I had never heard before. Honestly, it was kind of life changing (for a real estate investor). His team, including Hans who was our main contact, was also always professional and knew their stuff down cold. Hans was kind, responsive, and expert. Don't expect to speak to David very often, though his name is on the team. He's extremely in-demand. Don't be disappointed, though, since his team is incredibly good. You'll be taken care of, no worries. The key things the Gunderman Group brings is 1) Staging and 2) Pricing. They know how to market a property in relation to what's out there and make sure it stands out. Our property went on the market on Thursday and we had an offer Friday afternoon for 8% above asking price. We were blown away, especially in this challenging time for real estate. We didn't even have time to hold an open house! Use them. You'll get more than expect out of the experience.Posted on John Gaspar I was about to begin working with a different agent, until a friend recommended I speak with Hans and his team. I am incredibly grateful that I did. I chose him and am convinced I would not have gotten as good of service or sold my home for as much as I did without him and his team's incredible work. It's an absolute pleasure to recommend him!Posted on John Thompson Hans and Kristin's local expertise made finding and buying our home in Alameda a smooth and streamlined process. Their knowledge of local lenders and vendors helped us avoid unnecessary hassle and gave us confidence in the reports, paperwork, and overall process. Throughout our home buying journey they made sure we understood each step and clearly explained the information and alternative options required to make key decisions, without pressuring us into making a particular decision. We highly recommend Hans and Kristin Struzyna for anyone looking to buy a home in the Alameda area.Posted on Robb Dehney Excellent across the board. Hans and Kristin were responsive, knowledgeable, and easy to work with throughout. I couldn’t be happier. We moved quickly, and their knowledge of the local market gave me the confidence to proceed on terms we were comfortable with. I’m happy to have had them as a sounding board and to have received all of their local alameda market wisdom!Posted on Phillip Johnson Hans and Kristin are absolutely fantastic! I had a very difficult estate situation to settle with more than the usual challenges. I was also out of state the whole time managing from afar and entrusted all of the real estate matters to Hans and Kristin. I couldn’t have asked for a better team, they took care of everything! Excellent communication from beginning to end. I was always informed and they guided me through the process patiently and professionally. I highly recommend the Gunderman Group and specifically Han and Kristin for anyone buying or selling real estate in the Bay Area!Posted on Glenn Gilchrist Imagine two Olympic athletes selling your home. You'd expect dedicated, hard - working people, wouldn't you? That's exactly what we got and more when we hired Hans and Kristin Struzyna of the Gunderman group to sell our townhome in Alameda. Hans and Kristin rowed for team USA. We did this crazy thing of retiring, buying a new home (in NC) and selling our Alameda home at the same time. Hans and Kristin did exactly what we had hoped they would -relieved us of the stress and burden of selling our home and prepped it to maximize the sale and all for a very reasonable price. They also happen to be very nice people. We couldn't have asked for more. We highly recommend them.Posted on Caroline Holmes Hans and Kristin Struzyna (and their entire team - shout out to our Project Director Suzanne!) are exceptional in every way. We worked with them on the purchase of our new home in Alameda and the sale of our first home in Oakland. Throughout the buying and selling process, they have been patient, responsive, and thoughtful. They have also demonstrated incredible acumen in their field, skillfully guiding us through negotiations related to numerous offers and counteroffers. My husband and I are both lawyers, and we have relatively high expectations of the people we work with, particularly when the stakes are high. Hans and Kristin exceeded our expectations at every step of the buying and selling process, and when we had questions or concerns, they addressed them promptly and professionally. Kindness and positivity goes a long way for me, and they are not short on either. I will be recommending them every time.Posted on Erin Parker We had the pleasure of working with Hans and Kristin Struzyna to buy our home in Alameda! They know the area, market and provided excellent guidance throughout our home buying journey! They were extremely professional and patient throughout the entire process! Highly recommend working with them for your home buying needs in the East Bay!Load more
