We had a really great experience with Linda/Leon Hu at Top Mission Realty in closing our first home less than a week ago. We wanted someone knowledgeable about the Fremont area, and picking Top Mission Realty was the best decision we could have made. What I liked about them is the value, expertise and professionalism they add to the entire process. As area specialists with years of experience (they are one of the top real estate broker/agent in Alameda county), they are the ones that can really strike the deal for you in this incredibly competitive market.
Linda/Leon worked patiently with us not only sending listings but also provided additional insights that we wouldn't have known otherwise. He came to open houses with us, arranged for personal showings, and walked through in detail about the pros and cons of each home, providing estimates of repair/remodeling costs. Linda/Leon is available on the phone anytime and is super prompt in responding to emails. Linda/Leon always had our best interests in mind and is an excellent negotiator who really makes the deal. He is professional, trustworthy and a charming personality to work with.
After our offer got accepted, he regularly communicated with my loan agent in making sure the approval was on track to meet the contract deadline. After close, he also helped us with referrals to affordable licensed contractors, movers, home insurance agent, and professional cleaning services. We couldn't have asked for a better/smoother process, thanks to Linda/Leon Hu and Top Mission Realty!
Thanks, Sid

Hi Linda/Leon,
Thank you very much for all your help. Please feel free to give my name for references.
I would highly recommend Linda Young to anyone selling a home in the Fremont area. She guided us beautifully through the whole process: suggesting improvement/repairs to help bring in top dollar, pricing strategy, staging the home so it showed like a model, proper marketing including hosting the open house herself and finally in helping us negotiate and accept the best offer. She is very personable and listened to our concerns. She advised us but also allowed us to make final decisions. We were extremely satisfied with her services and recommend her highly.
Best,
Parveen

04/15/2013 - user9761766Sold a Single Family home in 2013 for approximately $525K in Union City, CA.
Leon/Linda were wonderful realtors. They were knowledgeable, reliable, and not pushy at all. That made my wife's and my first foray into home selling an overall positive experience. A few things we really liked about Leon/Linda:
They were always AVAILABLE or had someone we could contact. We had lots of questions as new home sellers, and Leon/Linda would always respond quickly and with a lot of detail. They are extremely good at UNDERSTANDING their clients. Leon/Linda are very KNOWLEDGABLE about the real estate market in SF and give very good advice. Overall, I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Leon/Linda to anyone looking for a new home sale/buy,especially if you are unfamiliar with the process and need savvy recommendations and a little extra handholding.

02/20/2013 - user2365140Bought a Single Family home in 2013 for approximately $875K in Mission San Jose, Fremont, CA.
The crew at Top Mission Realty is TRULY professional and VERY impressive. I believe they are the most well-connected real estate agency in the Mission San Jose area.
We had the pleasure working with Linda Young/Leon buying our first home in the area in February 2013.
I would say in this hot market, being able to secure a contract from the sellers at a reasonable price is fairly challenging. Linda Young/Leon made it happen for us! Compared with many buyers who can put down very large down payment, even we have very good credit, we were not very confident that we could get a house in the highly sought-after mission area at all. Linda Young/Leon, through their well-connected network, tactic negotiation, promptness in action, and right judgment at the right moment, won us a contract from the sellers. YEAH! This happens not through magic, but deep experiences.
Also, what differentiates Linda Young/Leon from other agents is they take time to educate you as a buyer. Instead of taking us to see properties right away, Leon made sure we had enough knowledge about the area, geography surrounding the area and common issues such as termite, roof, house foundations, market and more.
Linda Young/Leon took care of us from the very beginning to the very end, even after our closing. Leon made sure we are happy with every detail throughout the buying process.
If you want to see RESULTS, no matter you are buying or selling, talk to Linda Young/Leon. You are in good hands!

Letter of recommendation for Linda Young
I am writing this to express my satisfaction working with Linda. My wife and I had been looking for a house for about 4 months and put in multiple offers to different properties without much luck. We started working with Linda after finding a house that we liked. She made sure we made a competitive offer, and then helped to make sure that our deal was being considered by the seller. She helped negotiate with the seller about pretty much everything and took care of any issues that we had immediately. After the closing of the house, I found out that the sprinkler system did not work. Linda called up her gardener and got it working for me out of her pocket. She was quick and effective throughout the buying process.
My wife and I had a very pleasant experience purchasing my house through Linda and would highly recommend her.
Sincerely,
Bobby Chen

Dear Linda,
We just wanted to express our gratitude for your work as our agent in selling our house. Your work was truly beyond our expectations from start to finish. You did an excellent job in preparing the house for the market. In fact, the house looked so much better than before. You helped us to set the right price and get the best offer even when the initial best offer did not go through. You also helped to make sure all work during escrow was done on schedule and
Escrow was closed on time.
Once again, thank you very much for a job very well done.

01/23/2013 - user59643294Sold a Condo home in 2012 in Ardenwood, Fremont, CA.
To whom it may concern:
At the beginning of year 2012, we needed to sell two properties. This plan was attempted in the prior year and failed. One of the properties was on the market for three months with no interest. This time, we interviewed three agents and decided on Linda. She was great to work with. She is very experienced in the market trend and has good touch on how to prepare the property for a quick sale. Not to mention she is detail oriented to ensure smooth transaction. Both our properties were sold within a week. We were really pleased with the sale price and the timing. Because of her professional performance, we are happy to recommend Linda to anybody who needs a reputable agent to purchase or sell. Please feel free to contact us(5102993222) if you have any questions.

It took me a while to write this letter and I apologize for it, because there is not enough words to describe how we appreciated Linda Young and her team’s excellent service during our little complicated buying and selling experiences for an almost 2 and half months “journey”. We met Linda at the second time open house of one of her listing, which we fortunately become very happy home owner at the end, it was a long story with my particular case as a buyer for a desirable Mission San Jose home, it was our mistake initially went with an irresponsible/unprofessional loan agent that resulted us almost pass the deadline and yet this so-called HSBC loan veteran was on her vacation and even worse: not that there were someone took over the process and yet she did not “allow” us to contact her colleagues, and she never return your calls and emails, even to all other agents working on this deal! Thank god we have Linda, she helped us analyzed situation and came up with a solution and better yet recommend her trusted loan agent which helped us smoothly close the purchase at the end. Linda’s professional knowledge is incredible, she knows Fremont areas, the history, market trend, community, neighborhood, etc. She has great insight and incredible expertise in real estate. We especially appreciate the exceptional service and hard work she and her team did for us, negotiating, finding solutions, finding a trusted lender, securing an inspection, talking to sellers while things almost hit a “snag”, so and so. She is so responsive even reply my emails at midnight right after I sent, she made herself always reachable whenever I had a question. She was always resourceful, even helped to have solution ready for worst case scenario. We still find ourselves waking up and thinking how lucky we were to work with Linda and now we are so happy in the home she helped us to get into. My family has bought several properties over the years, and we were very impressed with Linda’s professionalism and expertise, this process is complicated and very educational to me, Linda definitely is one of the best in my humble view, and believe me I am not exaggerating, because my story does not end here, next Linda helped us selling our previous home in Fremont. People think in an up market, it might not seem that the listing agent matters, let me tell you - it does. Not every selling is same, some may sell top price and some need to sell as quick as possible, which was our case, but we sold ours not only quick but was the top price in our area, thanks to Linda’s superior insights, on advertising and prospecting, pre-listing renovation / staging, and effective showing and proactive facilitating during the sale. She was so instrumental, she gave wise counsel along the whole course, she has a tremendous “grasp” of the market and possesses the intuitive feeling of what real market price is and how well it will sell. We listened to her on the pricing and did some renovating, we reached our goal and most importantly, we sold it very quickly so my loan application for my new house could be proved in time before my purchase contract expires, which in this difficult lending market is next to impossible. We did! with Linda’s exceptional help, her care, her devotion, her incredible professional knowledge, her amazingly responsive, her… I’ve never met a real estate agent like Linda, from the start Linda showed us there is reason she be the No. one agent in Fremont top area, she is in a class of her own with going above and beyond. I consider myself “proud” but I believe I have been blessed to have Linda’s help throughout this whole process: buying and selling. From bottom of our hearts, we THANK her: Linda Young! I know the best “thank you” to her is “referral”, by all means I WILL, and all of my friends whoever wants to buy or sell properties, I will tell him/her: go talk to Linda. I will tell my story, and even to people I don’t know I will recommend her without even a tiny bit of hesitation, further more, if anyone wants to know more for this review, fell free to contact me, ask Linda or her assistants my number.
Sincerely
Hailei Yang and family
