Thank you very much and right now with our next mortgage loan, I know who is the man to turn to for the best rates and world-class professional
service.

After an hour of the initial consultation with Edward, his confidence, honesty, knowledge, and professionalism assured us that we'd be in good hands. Edward showed us many houses in the Bay Area but with the aggressive market, we decided to wait and see where our jobs was going to take us. Eventually, my wife and I had to relocate to northern Sacramento area with our jobs but Edward was patient enough to make the long drives and got us our first home in Folsom.  By the time we were ready to purchase a second home as an investment, we didn't hesitate one bit to have Edward represent us again.  All we have to do is make the call, tell him what we want and ask him where to sign.  We're not afraid that he'll rip us off because we know he's an honest and family-oriented working man.  As a matter of fact, we've become his faithful clients because we've used him for all of our refinance transactions and referred numerous friends, co-workers, as well as family members.  There's no doubt that we will continue to use Edward's services for future transactions because over the years, we have developed enough trust that we don't even need to discuss about fees. 

My wife and I were quite nervous looking for our first home. We were hesitant to accept offers from different agents to represent us since most seemed too slick and appeared to treat us as another sale in their pocket. Luckily my wife's very shrewd family recommended Edward Tran to us as a friend they trusted and who had looked after their best interests in a past sale and purchase.

From the start Edward displayed a wonderful mix of high-class professionalism and down-to-earth honesty that my wife and I recognized as someone we could trust. Edward was extremely patient and kind with us as he drove us to countless homes that met the specifications we'd requested. At the same time he was aggressive in making sure selling agents let us see homes as quickly as possible. People often say I can be a critical person; however, I have nothing but praise for Edward Tran. That says a lot.

The entire buying experience was made more relaxing and a lot of fun because of Edward. Of course, we are most pleased with the fact that Edward helped us land a home much better than we had expected. I highly recommend Edward Tran as a realtor for anyone. Feel free to get in contact with me for more details.

I am writing this letter to express my profound appreciation and gratitude for your efforts towards the purchase of our new home. I cannot express enough how much my fiancé Noi and I appreciate everything you have done for us. Considering that both of us are from the Midwest and this being our first home purchase, we were very skeptical at the prices and competition that most homebuyers experience in the Bay Area. However, through your words of encouragement, we continued to search for the “right” home. When we finally found a house that we were both very interested in, your professionalism and exceptional communication skills finalized the deal. We were extremely impressed with the way you represented our interests, while negotiating the details and purchasing price of the house.

Finally, I also wanted to acknowledge your hard work and effort that was required to lock in an excellent mortgage rate and get our loan approved. Lookg back, I now realize how difficult the process can become when trying to purchase a house that fits one’s style and budget in this region. I can only say thank you for your diligence in trying to understand our needs and always instilling confidence that our dream house was out there. Not only do we feel like we have found an exceptional agent but we also feel like we have made a kind and wonderful friend.

Edward, it had been a very very pleasant experience to work with you and your team members on our recent home refinance. The time it took you guys to complete the transaction was amazingly fast, especially during this time with extremely attractive mortgage rates, and applications piled up. We did enjoy very much the friendly and professional environment at your office.

The other thing that we enjoyed a lot was the advice you gave us at the very beginning regarding document preparation so that we never felt worried or pressured during the whole process. With your friendly and honest attitude and an utmost professionalism you and your team possess, we have no doubt that your business will become very successful. You will certainly have referrals from us.

Approximately six months ago, while my wife and I were exploring the possibility of selling our home and buy a bigger one, we stumbled upon Edward through one of his clients. What started as a curiosity ended up into a very happy ending and a lasting friendship between my wife and I and this wonderful gentleman realtor named Edward.

Right from the gitgo when we first met Edward in our old home. He put us at ease and walked us through the complicated process of home selling. He was very calm, collected and knowledgeable in his demeanor that put him way ahead of his competitors. 30 minutes into our conversation, my wife and I has already decided that Edward is our right man for the job. But the professionalism did not end there. Edward and his crew continuously checked our progress and maintained constant follow up to make sure that they meet our expectations.

His staff were very polite and accommodating, a sign of a true professional crew running a tight ship. Edward showed us many home listings, always providing us his sound advice and expertise in real state. He is not so much interested in selling his clients a home and making a quick profit, here is a guy, for a change, who actually cares more about his clients’ happiness in owning a home and making sure that they are well informed in the investment and fully satisfied in the painstaking process.

In our case, Edward literally took all the stress out of buying a home. Still he did not stop there. Where other realtors disappear after the sale, Edward and his crew constantly followed up with us to make sure that we have a smooth transition all the way up to moving day. My wife and I are fully impressed because of Edward's impeccable work habits and outstanding personality. If there is one person that I can recommend to anyone without any reservation, that gentleman is Edward Tran. He actually made a believer in us that there are still people in Sales out there that cares so much about their customers' well being and happiness. We now own a new home, acquired literally stress free, thanks to Edward and the entire crew of Selection Realty.

As a former United States Navy Serviceman, I am really impressed with Edward's professionalism and business acumen worthy of mentioning to all who seek help in the home selling and home buying business. Thank you Edward for knowing you and letting us feel confident and happy with our new home.

When we heard that Edward Tran of Selection Realty was starting a web site, we knew we had to write something. My girlfriend and I are a young couple just starting out in the world. We were looking for condos and townhouses in the Hayward area within the price range of $200K.

When we first met Edward, we knew that he had clients searching for homes in half million-dollar range. We were afraid that we might get lost in the shuffle in that he would not spend as much time with us and that the majority of his business is in the Santa Clara Valley. He quickly dissuaded our fears. In that first Saturday, he showed us about 12 listings, and even though we did not find anything that first weekend, he continued to showed us places the following two Saturdays. At that moment, we both understood that Edward cares more about our satisfaction than the possible commission that he could earn. Once we found the place, he properly did his research and recommended the range of our bid. It was right on because a day after we placed our bid, it was accepted by the seller.

Edward’s hard work did not just stopped there. He walked us through the loan process and helped us find not only the lowest rate possible at the time but one without any points to pay up front. We also wanted to move into our new place as soon as possible, and through his diligence, we were able to close the deal within 21 days. I have always heard from family and friends that buying a home was one of the biggest headaches of their lives, but Edward made it a smooth experience. From start to finish, we do not think you will find a better real estate professional. In the future, when we want to start a family and need a bigger place, we will definitely be going back to Edward!

Edward is a very responsible Real Estate Professional. While working through the complicated process of buying a home and borrowing money, I was very pleased that Edward always responded to my phone calls and answered all my questions. He is very knowledgeable in this business. Calling him an 'agent' is not appropriate because he did much more than just helped me find a home, he also got me a great loan and introduced a reliable contractor to remodel my lovely townhouse. I saved lots of time and money in this one-stop-shopping experience. I am glad I found Selection Realty and Edward Tran when I was just surfing the internet. Edward is highly recommended by me!

In July 2000, I was thinking of selling my completely remodeled house in Sunnyvale. I interviewed three real estate agents, Edward Tran was one of them. I was attracted to his unconventional ad on the Viet Mercury. In the ad, he plays with the fact that because he is a bachelor, he has more time to please and take care of his clients. I called him and set up an appointment. I find Edward to be a very energetic, hard working, courteous and professional agent. He is comfortable and well versed in financing due to his background in banking. Although I decided not to list the house at the moment, I am glad I met Edward Tran. In the future if I decide to sell, I am sure he will be my listing agent. I strongly recommend him to anyone who needs an excellent agent on his side in buying or selling a house.

I have found Mr. Edward Tran to be a very responsible and hardworking real estate agent. He is also a very knowledgeable loan agent who tries to help his clients in every possible way. I am very much impressed with his professionalism and courteous nature.

Both of my parents are from China and speak very little English, so when they started to look for a house, they wanted to work with an agent who could speak Chinese. Therefore, they were not too excited when my sister's boyfriend first introduced Edward Tran, who could only speak English and Vietnamese.

However, Edward's enthusiasm and politeness quickly won my parents' affection. They loved the way he patiently explained everything they needed to know about purchasing the house. Before talking to Edward, my parents had heard (and believed) so many inaccurate things from their friends. Edward's explanations really calmed their worries. Through diligence, Edward found my parents a small but very beautiful house. My parents liked the house so much, they were ready to offer $30K above the asking price.

Most agents would be thrilled because the higher the sale price, the higher the commission and the better chance of getting acceptance. Edward was different. He cared enough to carefully research the market and talk to the listing agent at length. Then he advised my parents to lower their bid. To make a long story short, we got the house and saved over $10,000!

I just want to thank and tell you how impressed I am! You have been so great to work with. You're conscientious, dependable, sensitive, quick and right on the ball! My clients and I appreciate your outstanding service and tell you thanks!

I've been in the real estate business for over 7 years. I've met hundreds and hundreds of Agents. Edward Tran is among the very best. He's hard-working, reliable, and doesn't bullshit. And he seems to care a great deal for his clients, too!

Mr. Tran has enthusiasm, expertise, energy, creativity, sensitivity and responsibility. What is most notable about his efforts is his self-direction, attention to detail and high quality work. My experiences with Mr. Tran allow me to recommend Edward for any endeavor that he may choose. He leads his life based on high quality and expectations.

I am most grateful for Edward's attention to detail, his diligence, his genuine concern and his dedication.

Through Mr. Tran's testing of Vietnamese students and through parent contacts, he has provided an invaluable contribution to our education for program for non-native speakers of English. He was able to assimilate the test procedures very quickly and gave us exactly the information we needed.
