Kindred Realty made selling our home smooth and stress-free from start to finish. Then, they found us an amazing condo to complete our downsizing journey. Highly recommended!

Jeff Weissman was an absolute professional to work with. He is knowledgeable, responsive, and deeply understands the Bay Area market. Throughout the process, Jeff was thoughtful in his guidance, clear in his communication, and acted as an advocate for our interests. What stood out most was his strategic mindset and calm, steady approach. Selling a home can be overwhelming, but Jeff brought clarity and confidence at every step, helping us make informed decisions without pressure. He was always available to talk things through and took the time to understand our priorities. When he pushed back, he did so very thoughtfully. I would highly recommend Jeff to anyone looking for a Realtor who is smart, honest, and genuinely invested in getting the best outcome for their clients.

Bought a Single Family home in Kensington, CA

Mikayla was such a pleasure to work with. She helped us land our dream home on the very first offer we made with her, which honestly felt surreal in this market. From day one, she was honest, incredibly knowledgeable, and refreshingly realistic. We never once felt pushed or uncomfortable; instead, we always felt supported, informed, and confident in every decision we made. She was extremely responsive throughout the entire process, always available to answer questions and talk things through, no matter how small. Even months after we’ve moved in, she continues to be a trusted resource and check-in point, which says so much about how much she genuinely cares about her clients. We couldn’t recommend Mikayla more highly.

My spouse and I recently purchased a home in Oakland with Jeff as our agent. We are experienced homebuyers but relocating from elsewhere, so our knowledge of the local market was limited. Jeff's knowledge of various neighborhoods and keen eye for both issues in homes and overall value was spot on and very helpful as we navigated the purchase process.

We contacted Jeff in November to explore possibilities for selling our home of 18 years in Redwood Heights. We were feeling the need to downsize yet weren't sure of how to get the process moving or how to prioritize all the things we would need to do. I had been impressed with Jeff's involvement in our neighborhood email communications, and knew that he lived in the area. I was especially pleased with our first face to face meeting. Jeff and his daughter/business partner Mikayla had done their homework and presented us with a clear outline of the possibilities. They helped us all along the process in making good informed decisions that enabled us to sell our home very quickly. We maintained a lively email and texting stream, and our questions and concerns were quickly addressed. It was great to partner with Jeff and Mikayla, and I highly recommend them.

I highly recommend Jeff Weissman. He will patiently answer any dumb question and think of lots of questions you've never thought to ask. As a clueless Estate Trustee he helped guide me through extensive renovations and we ended up selling at an amazing price. If you want a hands-on, knowledgeable and detailed Realtor then he's the one for you!

Mikayla is incredible and I can’t recommend her enough! She truly understands the East Bay market and what it takes to be competitive in such a unique area. There’s so much to consider when buying a home, especially in an area with such diverse housing stock. Mikayla did a great job of educating us on the ‘do’s and don’ts’ of home inspections and when she didn't know the answer to a question she was quick to seek out someone who did. Mikayla worked very hard and did it with an amazing attitude. My husband and I had a uniquely challenging home hunting journey, but we felt completely supported the entire way. She was prompt and had no problem moving quickly, sometimes helping us submit offers within hours of seeing a property. Last but not least - I really want to recognize her integrity. There were a few times where an unscrupulous person would have taken advantage of us and pocketed some extra cash. Mikayla went out of her way to ensure that we knew our rights and even encouraged us to save money whenever possible, regardless of how it could affect her fee. There was never any doubt in my mind that she had our best interests at heart and that is priceless. After working with her for several months I will miss her, but I’m happy to recommend her to anyone I can. Thank you so much Mikayla!!!

Consulted with me about buying a home in Oakland, CA

Jeff was incredibly generous with his time and expertise to help me understand the ins and outs of placing my very first offer on a house. I am a first-time prospective home buyer and he walked me through the property and pest inspection reports and answered all my stupid questions with patience and clear language. I felt so much more confident with him in my corner.

Mikayla was fantastic to work with!!! It was like looking at houses with a bestie who just happens to be a Realtor. She is incredibly knowledgable and was so supportive throughout the process. She is a great listener and knows the right questions to ask to help you understand what you're looking for, and encourages refinement and adjustment as you go. I really appreciated her patience and thoughtfulness - I never felt pressured and learned a ton. She notices all the details and is great at explaining why they're relevant. Having Mikayla in my corner helped me feel confident and secure throughout the daunting search, and she continues to be a wonderful resource now that I'm in my new home! Could not recommend more highly :-)

Jeff did a great job selling my house. He was quick to respond to me when I had questions. My house sold quickly and received over asking price. Couldn’t be happier.
