— ERIC M.

What My Clients Say
I am a repeat client. Great service as usual. We sold over 20% over asking and didn't even make it to our asking date. Exceptional marketing and staging!

— JAMES B.

What My Clients Say
High recommendation. Feel so lucky to have found Tia Hunnicutt. She is the only REALTOR I will ever use again and have recommended her to many clients and friends!

— TIM P.

What My Clients Say
Tia went above and beyond to assist us with the closing. She treated us under 200 thousand mortgage just like it was a million-dollar closing! We look forward to working with Tia in the future.

— PAUL J.

What My Clients Say
We could not have found our "Dream Home " without Tia's help. She was with us every step of the way doing whatever took to make the daunting task of house hunting fun and easy! We would recommend her to anyone who is in the market for a home.

— TIM P.

What My Clients Say
Tia was a great help in every way very happy to answer questions and make time to fit my schedule. It was a very pleasurable experience and I would recommend her to my friends and business associates in need of a terrific real estate agent. Thanks again!

— BUYER

What My Clients Say
This is the 2nd time I have worked with Tia, I didn't hesitate to pick up the phone when I saw a property and wanted to view it as soon as possible. Tia made every step of the process simple and had time for all my questions. It was a delight to work with her.

— TRISH K.

What My Clients Say
Tia was great. She was there when I needed her, got expedient responses from her when I posed questions or comments, she was on top of everything, but yet she wasn't in my face which I feel is a problem with a lot of agents. Actually, I've never had that problem with a Zip agent.

— BUYER

What My Clients Say
Tia was absolutely great all around. Excellent at answering all my myriad of questions, great at prompt and clear communication, very patient, worked very hard, and knowledgeable. Also fun and incredibly sweet. I could go on and on but I'll just say I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

— RIDWAN S.

What My Clients Say
After having a horrible experience with another agent, Tia came to the rescue. She was referred to us thru our broker, she knows the bay area and went above our expectations. Knows the business very well and was able to help us stay within our budget! Looking forward to referring her to our friends and relatives.

— OMAR P.

What My Clients Say
Tia was amazing. She was very responsive and even took us to see places on Thanksgiving weekend. We work long hours during the week, and she always made herself available on the weekends for us. She also dealt with a very difficult and unresponsive seller. I can honestly say, that if it weren't for Tia, we probably would not have gotten our house.

— BUYER

What My Clients Say
Tia was amazing. She held our hand when we needed it, calmed us down when we were frustrated and was generally just an awesome person to work with. We were first-time home buyers and Tia conveyed a lot of info to us about the process and expectations. And then she just made it happen. Will definitely refer her to friends in the future. Thanks, Tia!

— JOHN G.

What My Clients Say
I highly recommend Tia. Tia is my go-to person for all things real estate. She is highly trustworthy, professional, knowledgeable, and seasoned in the ins and outs of all related subjects, She's the first and only REALTOR I've ever worked with who can outdo agents in any area and subject as most REALTOR specialize in geography or niche. Tia is an outstanding subject matter expert in all areas. I highly r...

— ANDA A.

What My Clients Say
We are so happy we chose Tia to be our real estate agent. She would reply immediately when we searched and requested viewings on properties and always made us feel like we were her top priority. It took a little over a month to view more than a dozen properties, get into a contract on one we liked and close on our first home! We would definitely recommend her to people who are very serious about buying a...

— LYNDA A.

What My Clients Say
Tia always had time for my calls and questions. Anytime I wanted to find out about a property she got back to me right away. Her counsel with respect to making the correct offer that I was comfortable with was invaluable. She was absolutely knowledgeable about the local properties and I cannot recommend her more highly. I am so happy with the property that I just closed on and cannot imagine navigating t...

What My Clients Say
Tia Hunnicutt is very knowledgeable, trustworthy, and professional. She helped my boyfriend and me purchase our first home in 2013. She cares about her clients and makes the process of buying and selling real estate so easy. She also connected us to a great lender. We've purchased 3 homes in Oakland and she sold our 1st and 2nd home in less than a week. Stop looking and contact Tia, believe me, you’ll be...

— SELLER

What My Clients Say
Tia was amazing. Words can't express how wonderful she is. I am a 30 years single person and a first-time home buyer. Tia took her time explaining the whole home-buying process to me. She made sure I stayed within my budget and she knew what was best for me. I moved into my new house and days later my hot water heater went out. My first thought was it was my house and my problem. However, I called Tia sh...

— NALISHA T.

What My Clients Say
Tia helped my husband and me buy a house in Oakland. After more than a year with another REALTOR, when Tia told us she had never worked with a buyer who she couldn't find a house for in less than two months, we both thought, "oh no, we're going to break this nice woman's record!" But sure enough, she quickly found the perfect house at the perfect price and worked hard to make sure it all worked out. My h...

— SANDRA S.

What My Clients Say
For starters, as a married couple, both Angelina and I-Mike Vukman count ourselves truly blessed that we accidentally stumbled upon Tia. Due to all of Tia's qualities listed above, Angelina and I were able to purchase our dream home in a relatively short period of time and with a minimal amount of stress. In addition, Tia also helped us successfully manage the difficult short-sale process for a separate ...
