“Seabea is not your regular realtor. She goes way beyond any realtor I have met in the past.Seabea accompanied me during the sell of my investment properties. She always had clever ideas and was available to brainstorm on different strategies to maximize the value of the property.I give her a very strong recommendation.”

“Seabea was my realtor for my recent house purchase in Santa Cruz and I highly recommend her. She is extremely knowledgeable about the market and this area. Most important for me was that you immediately get the feeling she cares about what I care. She is really making a 'Win-Win' deal to both the buyer and the seller.Our deal was made through successfully only because of her skill, expertise and persistence. She was always willing to take the extra step to make sure our needs were met. She listened carefully to our desires, and we never felt pressured or rushed into anything. We were super impressed by her negotiation skills to make us an incredible deal and win a dream house.We would highly recommend her to anyone trying to buy a home, whether it's your first time or not.”

“Seabea is an outstanding realtor. She uses an innovative approach to every property she represents and goes above and beyond with her marketing efforts. Plus, she is an absolute delight to be around. Her enthusiasm for her work and life is uplifting and inspiring. I highly recommend her services!”

“I actually met Seabea in Japan through a very good mutual friend and that was about 10 years ago. I’ve know her for a long time as a friend. Seabea is a very versatile, independent, fun and capable person.Last year, she heard that we had not sold our property after 2 years on the market. She took the initiative and started looking into things for us. We decided we wanted her to help us instead. While she was helping us with our property, my husband and I were really happy with her service. She marketed it so well that the traffic went up tremendously. The property was viewed online over 10,300 times (I think). She constantly looked for solutions, is detail oriented (she figured out the wrong/missing pieces on our property record & fixed it) and she gave us constant communication on the progress. In short, she is wonderful to work with and she got us results. Within half a year, we got multiple offers.I highly recommend her, she is well deserved for her five stars.”

“This is the same as what I put in Yelp but Seabea deserves as much praise as I can give.Seabea is amazing, she saved us over $8000 once she started working on our property (site approval related matters). We also got multiple offers for our property once she became our agent - it had been on the market for over a year with the other agent.Seabea is very professional, diligent, hard working and has integrity. She was very responsive and gave us regular updates. Both my wife and I feel Seabea had our best interests in mind throughout the whole transaction. Seabea went above and beyond to help us. Seabea often says she is doing what she is supposed to do as our realtor. Not all realtors work the same way.Seabea saved us! She really cared and did everything she could to sell our property. She found ways to market that no other real estate agents had even considered. She knew the right people and really got the word out. She understood our plight (which I won't detail lest I say something negative about another agent) and was committed to helping us.She followed every lead and even visited the county planning office to get information. She learned about areas she hadn't dealt with before. Nothing stopped her from getting to a solution that was a win for all of the parties involved.Best of all, not only did she do it but she did it ethically and professionally.”

“I would like to take this opportunity to praise Seabea and her professional service as a real estate agent who helped me with the purchases of my residence in 2003. Throughout the process of searching for a house and closing the sale with the seller, I found that Seabea has three qualities that make her successful in her endeavors:Professionalism and Experience:Seabea has extensive experience in her career in real estate. She has proven track in both construction business as well as real estate sales and marketing. During the search process for my residence, Seabea provided me with valuable feedbacks from her experience on the various aspects of houses we looked at: location, construction, builder and building materials, common problems that I should watch out for, etc. Her advices helped me avoid possible future problems that could adversely affect the satisfaction of my purchase experience.Dedication to Clients: Seabea is extremely customer oriented and gives 100% undivided attention and commitment to all of her clients. She also understand her clients' needs well and communicates well with her clients. Throughout the process of my working with her, I can see that she shared a vested interest in the purchase of my residence. I was very pleased with her dedication in service.Diligence and Skill in Preparing Outstanding Presentations: Seabea is very diligent and resourceful in helping to bring out the best of her clients.With her valuable experience and skill as a agent, she knows how to market sales well through outstanding sale and presentations. When I was going through the bidding process of making an offer for the property I wanted to purchase, Seabea coached me through the process of making a good offer and presented the offer well to the seller. Her expertise and pointers were invaluable in helping me win the seller' s acceptance of my bid.In all, I believe Seabea has the qualities of a successful individual in both professional and personal terms. I believe all of her customers can benefit from her business and success.”
