Haruko cut through it all with deft precision.

I have had the pleasure of working with Haruko twice in the past five years. She helped me find my dream condo in Duboce Triangle in 2010, and this year she helped me to find my first investment property in the Financial District. When I first sought to find a place for myself, my mortgage broker recommended Haruko. When I met her, she immediately put me at ease. She explained clearly all the steps that would be required in the process, common pitfalls, how to read through disclosures, and how do handle the offer process. Buying a home truly is a maddening amount of information to sift through and risk to assess, and Haruko cut through it all with deft precision. She helped me narrow down my search and took care of all the scheduling, saving me a tremendous amount of time. In no time at all, we found the perfect place, made the right offer, and everything fell into place. So I turned to Haruko again this year when I wanted to purchase an investment property. 

Our experience with Haruko Hata was terrific. She helped us to prepare ahead of time in order to be successful in purchasing the kind of condo we were looking for as an investment. With her help, we got our finances in order, we became more clear about our priorities, and therefore we were able to make a fast decision and made the “winning” offer for the property we really wanted. In our experience — What we found is if you really listen, learn from and follow what your agent, Haruko Hata, tells you is best for you to do, you can do really well in real estate.
