We had a terrific experience when we worked with Lilli to find our house in Lafayette during the summer of 2017. I don't think I can do Lilli justice in a short review, but here are a few things we found really valuable in working with her:

1 - Informative: we were moving from another part of the Bay Area and needed help understanding the Lamorinda market. Lilli really helped to deprogram us from all the assumptions we developed while living out on the peninsula (e.g. that the market was too competitive to make offers with contingencies), and helped us understand the lay of the land of all the neighborhoods in quick order.

2- Patient & Wise: we looked at so many homes together that I literally lost track of the number -- but Lilli's patience with us never flagged. She was always very candid about a home's faults or tradeoffs, and never tried to 'push' us to move on anything. She also helped us rationalize our over-asking bid amount when my wife an I were talking in circles.

3- Personality: while there is something inherently stressful & exhausting about house-hunting in the BA, it made all the difference in the world to have someone as delightful and genuine as Lilli as our guide. She is very upbeat and optimistic, without being saccharine. She's looking far enough ahead to know the decision she's helping you make may span not only decades, but major steps in your life. Simply put, she cares about people!. It makes her a joy to work with!

Working with Lili has been an amazing experience. We started looking at homes over a year ago and with the pandemic, Lili stepped up to help me secure my home with confidence. Lili assured me that the right home will be there for me and sure enough it was! Lili was available 24/7, even on nights and weekends which I always appreciated. Lili is the best of the best and would work with her again anytime! Not only did we find the house I wanted in the neighborhood I wanted but we were able to avoid a bidding war with everyone else due to her negotiation skills. Lili is a great negotiator! Buying a home is also stressful but Lili's attitude and confidence always help keep me calm. I 100% recommend Lili Rath!

I chose Lilli to sell a condo that I had owned for some time. There were complications that were not her fault (they had to do with my LLC that held the deed to the property). I live in Ohio so I was limited in what I could do to fix them quickly. Lilli really stepped up and took control, investing much of her own time, to get the situation straightened out and the deal completed. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a hard working and trustworthy realtor.

Great Agent!! Lilli came as a referral, and after a quick introduction call, she jumped into action that very day. Lilli had every weekend mapped out for us to ensure we had a full understanding of what was available. She didn't shy away from any question or curiousity I had, and I had many. Lilli was committed to getting us into the right house, and after a few weeks of searching, our offer was accepted and we couldn't be happier.
