Yanjie is one of our most trusted realtor agents who has helped us purchased two single family houses in the bay area: our first house in Santa Clara in 2017 and our recent house in Palo Alto in 2024 after we had a baby. As we all know that finding the dream house in the bay area has always been challenging, especially for the 1st time home buyers, especially both me and my husband are engineers and have to rely on mortgage. Yanjie spent time to understand our needs and made recommendations for us. She was always honest about the pros/cons of each home we toured, also shared her knowledge and experiences about the housing market trends, locations and helped us to review inspections of the properties. Not like some other agents we worked with who tried to rush us into a deal without considering if we may struggle later, Yanjie was very patient and helped us to make the right decision for us and our family. During the bidding process, Yanjie always worked with us on the pricing strategy and made the best offer without overbidding, which helped us a lot in the appraisal process. It was worthwhile mentioning that both of our Santa Clara home and Palo Alto home passed the appraisal process smoothly. She also helped us to estimate how much the repairs would be needed and shared us with contacts to help us get the work done timely. Because of this, Yanjie is also helping us to rent our 1st home out and doing rental property management for us. My husband and I always talk about that how lucky we were when we met Yanjie when we purchasing our 1st house! Because of the great purchase of our 1st house, we could build upon that and moved to Palo Alto last year. We trust Yanjie and her expertise, and we will definitely work with her in the future!

 Yanjie Dong is a great agent, and I would highly recommend her. We've worked with her on multiple transactions, and they have all been positive experiences. For example, with the most recent purchase of a unit in San Francisco on February 2025, she was able to provide us with all of the pertinent information and was instrumental in getting us our dream unit.

I've known Yanjie since 2009. Yanjie helped us buy our first home. In the following 14 years, Yanjie helped us purchase 3 investment properties and sold one house. Living in the Bay Area, and having investment properties is very rewarding. Yanjie is more than a real estate agent to me. She is an investment consoler and a property manager. Yanjie would search up and down the peninsula for properties that meet my criteria, and find good and neat tenants who stay over 5 years. She helped me find a contractor and dealt with the insurance agent when the water heater broke and flooded the house. Yanjie is honest, smart, and very knowledgeable.

I have been working with Yanjie for many years and am very happy being able to work with her on my real estate needs. Starting from almost a decade ago, Yanjie has helped me to purchase properties and manage them accordingly. Real estate transactions, of course, have their own usual courses of details and associated regulations. And along the time, circumstances and regulations would have naturally evolved. Yanjie has been excellent in providing effective details for both buyers and sellers to help them achieving their goals. She is very responsive and flexible to work with. She keeps excellent detail records and understands needs of clients to negotiated effectively to complete the transactions promptly that I am quite happy with. Property management requires ongoing attention of details and access with well-connected resources for the usual maintenance needs as well as finding, retaining, and working with the tenants for best of mutual benefits. It certainly also needs to closely follow federal and local regulations. Working with Yanjie has relieved me from worrying every step of the way knowing she would do the correct things along and in case something unexpected occurred, she would have the knowledge and experience to resolve it accordingly and quickly. I highly recommend Yanjie for real estate needs.

We have been Yanjie’s tenants for over 3 years and have only positive feedback to report. The application and lease agreement process was easy and quick. She has been responsive to our needs and requests regarding the property and rent payments - especially during the first year of COVID to which we are grateful. I feel that she genuinely cares about the well-being of her tenants. I would recommend Yanjie as a landlord to anyone looking for a home in Silicon Valley.
