What Our Clients Are Saying

R. James

I recently had the pleasure of working with an exceptional real estate agent Shalaya Shipman, who exceeded all my expectations. From the very beginning, Shalaya demonstrated the utmost professionalism, guiding me through the process with expertise and confidence. Despite the challenges of a high interest rate environment, she advised me to request top dollar for my house and not to settle for the first offer that came in. Her keen understanding of the market and strategic approach ensured that my property was positioned perfectly to attract the right buyers. One of the most impressive aspects of her work was her ability to sell my house despite its proximity to commercial buildings. She expertly highlighted the unique advantages of the location, turning potential drawbacks into selling points. Her marketing strategy was impeccable, showcasing my home's best features through stunning ph…

Her keen understanding of the market and strategic approach ensured that my property was positioned perfectly to attract the right buyers. One of the most impressive aspects of her work was her ability to sell my house despite its proximity to commercial buildings. She expertly highlighted the unique advantages of the location, turning potential drawbacks into selling points. Her marketing strategy was impeccable, showcasing my home's best features through stunning photography and engaging listings. Her negotiation skills were second to none, and she worked tirelessly to secure the best possible deal. Thanks to her dedication and hard work, I received top dollar for my house, even in a challenging market. I highly recommend Shalaya to anyone looking to sell their home. Her professionalism, expertise, and commitment to her clients are truly outstanding.

I have known and worked with Shalaya for over ten years. During that time, I've always found her to be professional, well-versed in what's happening in the market, and an extreme advocate for me as her client. She goes above and beyond to make the process straightforward and seamless. Because of this, she is my go-to agent for all things real estate and I have used her on at least two transactions (this doesn't include all searches and random questions she always knows the answers to so she cannot be stumped!). I'm someone who asks A LOT of questions and Shalaya is extremely patient, flexible, and kind with me. Following her advice has always paid off. My most recent transition was the sale of my condo where she could get it sold in 9 days for 11.9% over asking! I cannot thank her enough for her diligence and commitment to ensuring I was delighted. She goes the extra mile for her clients…

My Husband and I first worked with Shalaya eight years ago, as we embarked on purchasing our first home. Fast forward, three children later we realized we needed more functionality and space. The idea of selling and buying a home, all while juggling your day to day is no easy task. This is where the patience and expertise of Shalaya and Janay came into play. Every step of the way, Shalaya was an amazing resource and even when the process of selling our home seemed stressful, she always found a way to keep us focused snd grounded towards our goal. Shalaya and Janay were constant with their marketing efforts and ultimately wanted to ensure we received exactly what we wanted! The real estate market is unpredictable and can be very slow; especially in the Bay Area. However, that never discouraged Shalaya or Janay in getting our home sold.

The real estate market is unpredictable and can be very slow; especially in the Bay Area. However, that never discouraged Shalaya or Janay in getting our home sold. We were able to secure two generous offers, both above asking with incredibly generous terms! My Husband and I could not have been more pleased with the support and professionalism that Shalaya, Janay, and The Compass team provided.

We have been working with Shalaya as our Real Estate Broker since 2010. She has been such an amazing resource for all things real estate. Back in 2010, Shalaya encouraged us to purchase a property in our early 20s. Since purchasing our first home, this investment has positioned us to purchase other properties. Her knowledge in the Bay Area helped us tremendously in picking the right investment that had huge equity potential. Shalaya has also advised us in refinancing, home equity lines, and rental properties. She also goes above and beyond the expectations of a broker. Once a quarter she checks in on us and gives us updates on how our property is doing and what the trends are in the market. I know that most Real Estate Brokers move on to the next client once a sale is done that is not the case with Shalaya.
