After having two different agents "try" to sell my house, in
this economy and neither one of them did what they said or
followed up for feedback, I chose Dominic Godfrey and his Team.
Not only did he do everything he said but the process went
exactly as he planned. I am not high maintenance, just let me
know what is going on. Dominic and his team do exactly that. He
is very honest and does not tell you what you want to hear but
the truth and his results prove that. He went above and beyond
what the "other Agents" did and that is what sold the house. It
was a higher end property in a gated community, so open houses
do not work. He really had to "sell it". His office staff is
excellent and I love the fact that if they do not know the
answer, they find out and get right back to you. Rob & Karen Snow

August 2010 "We needed to sell in these difficult times, and Dominic and his team were instrumental in the successful Short Sale of our home. They were attentive to detail, persistent in achieving results, responsive to requests from all parties, and consistently "on top of things" in all matters of the transaction. Due to the market conditions, it was a lengthy process, and Dominic and his team stayed resolute to seeing the closure through to completion, being flexible and creative, to the satisfaction of the buyers and sellers. We are very grateful to have had the opportunity to have Dominic and his team represent us. Thank You! Buzz & Linda, Morgan Hill

We could not have asked for a better team to work with in partnering to Short Sell our property. At our first meeting as you professionally, openly and honestly explained what to expect in the current volatile market. Angie and the rest of your team were invaluable in working with us through the process. Your team's attention to details and keeping us informed was greatly appreciated. Thank you Dominic and team. We recommend you to anyone who is in the market to sell or buy a house.

September 2009 I want to give you and your team a special thanks, you guys did an excellent job Short Selling three of my properties. From the very beginning of the process you demonstrated full confidence and professionalism in every step of the way and inspired positivism towards our troubled situation. My wife and I appreciate and recognize your hard work and thank you for guiding us in this uncertain market. I would definitely recommend your service to anyone who is in need of a professional real estate agent. Great job!! Thanks again for bringing back some stability to our financial crisis.” Sincerely, Hector & Gabriela, Gilroy |

January 2008 Greetings Dominic, We want to sincerely thank you and your staff for all your help last year! Before we interviewed agents, we decided that we needed someone that we could trust. Our hopes, dreams and finances were at stake. Our agent would need lots of experience in real estate transactions, marketing, and possess a strong work ethic. After working with you for 9 months, as both a buyer and a seller, we have a new, higher standard to compare other agents to. In our opinion, you have proven yourself to be a true Real Estate professional, something we can not say about every agent. You spent countless hours with us, helping us get the best possible house. In the end, we looked at over 100 houses, most of which you personally showed us. We put you through the ringer by being indecisive and starting off with an unrealistic view of what we would need to spend to get a home with all the features we wanted. After several offers that fell through we finally found a home that had the features we wanted most and was within our means. I think most agents would have given up on us, but you stuck with us through it all. We know that you worked like crazy to sell our old house, going far beyond what most other agents would have done. There was a lot of work to be completed before we could even put it up for sale. You helped us decide what to fix and what to leave alone so that we could still get it to market before the holidays. Your network of professionals helped us get the jobs done. The staging service you offer is invaluable. It was such a surprise to see just how beautiful the right paint colors, furniture and accessories could make it look! You held open houses for us almost every weekend, most times both days! We are really glad you were there, with your broad knowledge and experience. We are very thankful to have had your help. Sincerely
Bruce & Cheryl Hemp |

September 18, 2007 To Potential Home Buyer or Seller, We have bought and sold 3 properties in the past 5 years. The best experience of them was the purchase and sale of our Morgan Hill Condo with Dominic Godfrey of Coldwell Banker. We were very impressed with how he handled the entire process. When purchasing the condo Dominic helped us prepare an offer that we were comfortable with, yet was attractive enough to our sellers to accept over other offers. The process went smoothly and Dominic made sure we understood every detail of the contract. When it came time to list the condo the housing market had drastically changed. Homes were staying on the market longer and prices were dropping. Dominic managed to turn the sale of our home in good time and nearly at asking price. Dominic has a unique quality we have not seen in other realtors. He has excellent people skills, is very down to earth and can negotiate tough when necessary. He has an uncanny ability to balance the needs of the buyer and seller in the transaction and makes both sides feel they have won. We plan to purchase a fourth home in 2008 and wouldn’t dream of using another realtor. Dominic Godfrey is the best and we would refer him to any friend or family member with complete confidence! Sincerely,
David and Marya
Keegan |

“Dominic Godfrey
and his team are the best real estate agents working in the Bay
Area. When other agents failed to get our house sold, they got it
done, even with the major housing market slump going on. As for
searching for a new home, Dominic and his team are prompt to inform
you of new homes, and he is great at negotiating the price in your
favor. I highly recommend Dominic.” |

"Dominic,
I would like
to personally thank you for your Real Estate services in selling
our home in Morgan Hill this Spring of 2007.
In a market
that is generally considered a buyers market in the South Bay,
clearly your level of experience, networking, advertising,
professionalism, and DILIGENT work ethic resulting in our home
selling at full price in just 20 days. In addition, we had
several offers to consider...
Having sold
multiple homes, I can attest to the value of a broker that
brings all of the above to the table... Actually it is
invaluable.
I often find
that bringing a house to close after the offer is a delicate
time and you know exactly what to do to bring the ball over the
goal line.
Thank you
again for the pleasant experience in what could be ordinarily a
stressful time - MOVING.
I would
recommended you to any friend or colleague as one of the best!"

Dominic sold my house for me in April 2007. My house had sat on the market previously for 6 months. I had an offer within one month with Dominic. The website they created for my house made it look wonderful, and I received many compliments.
When
problems came up in escrow Dominic handled them with absolute
diplomacy. Every time I called he always was completely updated
with everything. It was a very stressful time, but he was always
so positive.
Everyone who
works with him was always friendly and helpful. I am very happy
that he was referred to me - and would recommend him to anyone
selling a home.

"Dominic,
I just want
to write you a quick note to thank you for your extraordinary
efforts in selling our home for us. We put the house
on the market in October 2006 in a down market with the holidays
approaching and you were still able to sell it within 120 days
at full price. When we moved in January you and your team
staged the house beautifully so that we never missed a day on
the market.
I attribute
this success to you and your team's marketing efforts, which
included virtually every marketing technique including keeping
the house open on every weekend, quality photographs, Internet
and phone presence and weekly ads.
Judy and I
want to sincerely thank you and your team on an outstanding job.
Thank you so
much."

December 2006 "Hi Dominic, We were first time buyers when we purchased our condo. Dominic explained all the details along the way. When we were ready to sell, we decided to list with Dominic because of his expertise and excellent work ethic. We had an offer at FULL price in just 5 days of the listing. That is a blessing in a slow market. Thanks to Dominic's dedication and persistence, we had a smooth transaction. We want to thank Dominic for his honesty and hard work. We are very satisfied! We will definitely come again to Dominic when we are ready to buy a house." Kind regards, Jaspreet & Kamal |

November 2006 "Thank you Dominic for making the process of selling our house in Hollister so easy. We really appreciate the fact that you were there every step of the way and always made yourself available for our questions and/or concerns. This was of the utmost importance to us, and unfortunately we witnessed firsthand that this is not how all agents do business. The free home staging by Isabel really impressed us by how much better the house was presented. This service made all the difference regarding curb appeal and I'm sure it helps buyers remember our house. With so many homes in the market these days, we feel this is a required service. Thanks again for your professionalism and knowledge of the market. We definitely will refer you to our friends and family." Edgar and Renee De Santiago |

January 2006 On behalf of Elaine Klein and the rest of our family, I want to thank Dominic Godfrey and the rest of his realtor team at Coldwell Banker for doing such a superb job of selling her town home in Morgan Village in Morgan Hill. Although the home went on the market at a time when the real estate market had slowed considerably (Fall, 2005), Dominic assured us that he understood how these changes in market forces would work, and he gave us excellent advice on marketing strategies and pricing. Then he and his team (including especially Isabel Villa and Angie Branco) provided a huge array of services that helped sell the house. After Mrs. Klein completed her move to Oakland, they staged the home beautifully; found and supervised excellent moving, cleaning, construction and painting services that were needed to update the home; held numerous open houses; and marketed the home aggressively. When the right offer was forthcoming, they managed the closing smoothly. Dominic and his team enabled Mrs. Klein to realize the full value of her home and complete her move, always in a cheerful and helpful way. It was really a pleasure to work with them, and we are very grateful.”

October 2005 Jackie's interior design skills shone brightly as buyers were impressed by her efforts; a huge factor in the sale of the house. Dominic's attention to detail and negotiating skills were evident as our well-marketed property sold in a timely and efficient manner. Jackie and Dominic, we want to thank you for promptly answering our questions, listening to our concerns and being available to us just about 24/7. You really did what you said you'd do to sell our house. In this day and age, that is so refreshing.” Sincerely,
Joe and Fran DiFalco |

May 2005 “Aloha Dominic, Thank you very much for your sincere support ! Your thoroughness and expertise towards helping us prepare the property for sale, and your serious attitude towards your business made our house sold in 10 days with the right price for everybody's happiness ! We thank you very much and waiting to see you in Hawaii where we are moving to. Mahalo,”

January 2005 "We had halfheartedly decided to put our house up for sale. We got a proposal from a real estate agent and just sat on it. About a month or so later, we decided to get serious. We were told that the proposal we received was rather low. So we decided to interview one or two other agents. My husband and Dominic were social friends and when he heard we were in the market for an agent, he asked to be considered. He came one night and got the essential information from us. He returned the next night with his proposal. We were quite impressed with his presentation. He had all of the pertinent figures – square foot comparisons, home sales and comp sales in the area. He documented all our improvements – new carpets, new paint, new bathrooms and kitchens. He understood our pride in our home and how to price the house accordingly. We were especially impressed with his marketing strategy. His many years in marketing have definitely impacted his knowledge and understanding of the real estate market. We were afraid that he had priced our home too high. He held open houses on four consecutive weekends and our house sold within 30 days of the market listing at more than the asking price. The sale of our house was practically painless except for the initial preparation of getting it ready for the market. This was solely due to Dominic. He completely took the worry and stress on his own shoulders and left us nothing to do but sit back and reap the benefits. We would strongly recommend Dominic to represent you in buying or selling a home. He is knowledgeable, aggressive, persistent and thoroughly professional." Mike and Diane Branco (retired) |

July 2004 "Dominic Godfrey helped my wife and I sell our house in San Jose. A buyer was secured in approximately seven days and we maximized the selling price with integrity, closing escrow in approximately 30 days. Dominic was a pleasure to do business with; buying or selling a home is never a stress free activity but we were guided through the process with a minimum of hassle. We found Dominic an excellent resource not only in selling our home but also in providing advice for the purchase of our new home even though that was handled via another realtor, in fact Dominic was far more helpful than the realtor handling our purchase even though he had no stake in that transaction. Dominic consistently went the extra mile, was present at all inspections and negotiations. Dominic was also able to recommend contractors for not only work we needed on our sale but also for the home we purchased. I would strongly recommend Dominic to anyone looking for a realtor to aid in either buying or selling a home."

June 2011 Monica is kind, considerate and always has your best interests at heart. Her cheery personality, coupled with a very diplomatic communication style, make her the perfect agent. We found an excellent deal in the neighborhood we were looking at and Monica never left our side. If you meet Monica, you will be re-assured in the first meeting itself that this is the kind of agent you want working on your behalf. We would be very happy to work with her again anytime!

We would be very happy to recommend Monica to our friends or family. We loved her no pressure attitude. She was always prompt about answering our questions and showing us new listings as soon as we wanted to see them. Monica went out of her way many times to sort things out with the seller and their agent. She was with us throughout the entire process. She is straightforward with a completely no nonsense attitude, and just the kind of agent you want to be working with. More friend, less agent! Jayesh and Ishita Joshi |

Hi Stacey, Tugce and I want to thank you for all of your efforts in helping us pick the right house; I don't think we could have found a more perfect house for us in the entire bay area!! The location is perfect, the house design is perfect, and the remodeling we wanted to take on come at great success to my family. Looking back, we would not change a thing, and are very proud to have exactly the home that we dreamed of. Thank you for being an integral part of this transformation for us - we could not have done it without you!!
Take care,

"When we were looking for our first home, we did a lot of research but we also needed guidance from an experienced professional, so we contacted The DominicGodfrey.com Realtor Team where we met Stacey Poso. She helped us find a lovely home to start our married life. During the negotiating process Stacey did everything in our favor. She always took that extra step to make sure we were getting all the information we needed in a timely manner. During the closing process we encountered some obstacles and Stacey was always there to help us look for answers and give us her advice. If we had to do it all over again, we would not hesitate in calling Stacey to help us out again. She is the real deal. THANKS Stacey for everything." The Marcelo’s

September 2009 Recently Deanne Stutzman helped me buy a home in Gilroy. She is professional, personable, and understanding, a rare combination. She was able to deal not only with signing details and escrow, but also with my feelings which were running high. I was particularly impressed by her negotiation with the seller for work to be done on the house at their cost before we moved in. Her win/win approach helped all of us feel great about the outcome. Since we often spend much time with a Realtor when looking for a house, I highly recommend Deanne who will not only get the work done, but will also make it an enjoyable experience for everyone involved. Best Regards, Sherri Gilroy |

August 2009 Patrick Bedley worked patiently with us to find us the perfect home in this very difficult market. We were overwhelmed by foreclosures and Short Sales and Patrick's vast knowledge and expertise helped us navigate through this competitive market. It wasn't easy but Patrick was determined, motivated and worked tirelessly to get us in to the right home! We persevered and now our family has a house to call a home. We can't thank you enough Patrick for all your hard work and dedication. The Gulizia Family Gilroy |

October 2008 Stacey Poso found us a really great deal on a bank owned foreclosure property but the bank wanted to sell the property AS IS, despite it needing numerous repairs. Stacey took on the bank single handed and systematically negotiated over $4,000 of repairs with them, making the bank complete repairs before close of escrow, at their expense. We're so glad she was on our side! Stacey worked incredibly hard for us throughout the whole process and was continually adding value through her considerable knowledge, experience and negotiating skills. Thank you so much Stacey for getting us into our own home. We couldn't have done it without you! The Echelberry Family Gilroy |

“We would like to say it’s been a pleasure working with Dominic Godfrey because he was very pleasant, knowledgeable and if he didn’t know the answer he would research it then call back with the answers. Dominic found us our dream home and helped us come up with an offer that the sellers would accept, and took his time to go over the procedures so that Jim and I understood. He made sure we knew what was going on at every stage of the process and the best part he was always available for us by phone when we had questions. Dominic went the extra mile for everything and was present at all inspections and signing of loan papers. Also, we would like to say that Dominic takes pride in what he does because he’s been to our new house twice since we moved in about a month ago to make sure were doing okay and everything is in our liking. Lastly, since we enjoyed Dominic so much we have referred him to our landlord where we were renting, who now wants to sell his property in Morgan Hill. We would strongly recommend Dominic to anyone looking for a realtor because of his personality, aggressiveness and persistence to get what you want.” Sincerely, Jim and Trisha Holder (Palo Alto Medical Foundation) |

"When I moved to California from the Marshall Islands last Fall I had the good fortune to meet Dominic Godfrey at an open house that he was hosting. Although I wasn't really interested in that particular property, he offered to help me in my search for a home to buy. He acted as my buyer's agent and discerned the type of property that I was looking for and prescreened properties for me as I was out of the country for the first part of my search. When I arrived in California to stay, we worked for a couple of weekends to find the right property to buy. During this time Dominic looked out for my interests very well and I ended up finding and purchasing a very nice property in Gilroy for a very good price. As a result, I would highly
recommend Dominic to anyone who needs a helpful real estate
professional to assist them find and acquire property especially
in Morgan Hill or Gilroy."

January 2004 "Dominic, I just thought that I would send you an e-mail thanking you for a job well done. I know you showed us several homes that actually would have met our needs, but as you already know, we believe that the home we finally purchased was our dream home. I like the way you never backed off on our negotiating, or for looking for just one more house. You are very professional and a joy to work with as our agent. As you know we have owned over twenty homes across the country, thus we know what type of an agent we needed to help find a home and the financing to finish the deal. You are that type of agent. Again, thank you for a job well done." Best regards, Paul L. Ealey (VP Operations at a Silicon

"We were first-time homebuyers and Dominic was very
helpful in making sure we understood every part of the process. When we were looking
at properties, he very quickly learned what we were looking for and got us in to see a half-dozen properties that met our requirements. Once we decided to put in an offer, Dominic helped us to make sure that the
dozens of steps happened in the right order and with the right
documentation, so there were no nasty surprises at closing. He made sure we knew what
was going on at every stage of the process, and he was always available
by phone when we had questions. |
|

"We met Dominic at an open house
in June of 2003 while we were looking to buy a house in the Morgan
Hill or Gilroy area. Dominic acted as our agent in buying a very
nice house in Gilroy. He worked to help us through every step of
the whole process, from finding the right house, making an offer,
organizing and attending the house inspections, getting a
mortgage, all the way to closing. Even after we moved in to our
new home he paid us a visit to see if things were working okay.
While we were very much impressed by his knowledge, attention to
details, honesty and integrity, we were especially grateful for
him going the extra mile to help us out of a mortgage transaction
problem that came up right before closing, due to some mis-communication
within the lender's organization. Even though it took very many
phone calls over a period of several days, Dominic's persistence
paid off when he eventually resolved the issue through elevating
it to a very high level manager at the bank." Manat Maolinbay
