“My husband and I sold our home to move out of state and I believe it wouldn't have been possible without Judy Bohlen. Her expertise, professionalsim, and unwavering support through every hurdle made the entire process manageable. Judy guided us through every step. I have sold several homes with the unwavering support of Judy Bohlen and would highly recommend her to anyone!! Judy is someone who genuinely cares and knows how to get results!”
“Phat is attentive beyond the call of duty. He was always transparent and clear in his guidance. Highly recommended!!”
“At our first meeting Gautam had an accurate understanding of my neighborhood and it's surroundings. After walking through the house and the yards he gave a clear assessment of our home's value and the reasons why. He also had an idea of what types of buyers would likely show interest, and how to market our home to them. He had an excellent advertising package in mind. One day after being on the market we received a full-price offer. It fell through, but in line were two more full-price offers. The second potential buyer became the buyer. There were three issues with the property that arose and he handled them all. That was especially helpful as we were already out-of-state. The house sold without further issues. Gotham was easy to work with, and his expertise gave me confidence that things would be well-handled. I recommend Gautam highly, and would recommend him to family and friends.”
“Working with Monica was a breeze. She is very professional. She keeps her focus on providing the best of service to her clients. I truly enjoy working with Monica and hope we can work togther again in the future.”
“Chris Ristau is very professional and knowledgable in everything Real Estate/Morgage. I would definitely refer E3 Realty to anyone looking for real estate or mortgage needs. My real estate process and transaction went very smooth and was a fantastic experience.”
“We are completey satisfied with Jim Tierney. We are so impressed by his integrity, honesty, and professionalism. With his years of experience, his advice and expertise were invaluable. We had the challenge of living out of the area during the sale. Jim was excellent with communication. The sale process was smooth and low stress with Jim guiding us through it. He was able to advise us in exactly what was needed to prepare the house for sale. His marketing strategy was excellent, resulting in the sale of the house in a little over 2 weeks at a good price with multiple offers. We give Jim our highest recommendation!”
“Working with Payal Kir was an outstanding experience from start to finish. She was there for every step of the home-buying journey—always accessible, highly knowledgeable, and deeply committed to making the process smooth and successful. Payal took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for and provided thoughtful guidance and expertise throughout the search, negotiations, and final closing. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care truly set her apart. I couldn’t have asked for a better agent and would confidently recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.”
“Strongly recommend Iveth. Profesional and really helpful.”
“Mr. Holland was very goal oriented and practical. He allowed us to choose amongst three plans and provided some of the best crews to complete that plan. He wasn't a hands-off agent but actually got his hands dirty to help out. It shows he enjoys what he does and gives his best. Anyone who works with him would not be disappointed. Thrilled he took us on.”
“Amy was a pleasure to work with, I would give her 6 stars out of 5!”
“Several agents reached out to us with basic information, but Jane Cresswell's initial contact was a step above all the others. She'd done some research and already had some helpful information about our property. Outstanding from the outset and brilliant throughout.”
“Matt was very professional and personable. He was attentive to all my questions and took care of the "little things" diligently. He was also a great resource for the technicalities of the moving process. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to sell or buy.”
“High level performance from Adam every step of the way. I was skeptical of the house selling fast in this market but Adam helped facilitate a quick sale for more than we were asking.”
“You recommended 2 agents, both of whom contacted me but Tyron did so within a few hours and we hit it off and he got the job. Thank you for the excellent recommendation!”
“It was a pleasure to deal with Louis in regards to the sale of my property.”
“Efficient and non-intrusive service. They recommended an agent, Craig Ackerman, who got us our dream home after only 3 weeks, 4 house-viewings, and one offer later. We'd gone through 3 ineffective agents over a 4 month period before this, so it was much appreciated!”
“Wonderful experience!! They were experienced and professional and prompt!!”
“Chuck was a complete pleasure to work with! We have made a new friend!”
“Ms Hagley was referred to us by good friends. She understood what we wanted and came through with that. She guaranteed we’d be in contract no more than two weeks and we were in contract before the two weeks was up. It was a difficult decision for us to sale my grandparents’ place but I am soooo glad we did. I’m always throwing the name out there to people that are thinking of selling. I’m very grateful for the services that Cindi provided for us. I would highly recommend Cindi and her group because they stand by their word and commitment to you. Thank you again!!!”
“Diego showed absolute professionalism throughout the entire process. It went very smoothly and all parties were happy with the end result. He was very transparent from the beginning and tempered our expectations from beginning to end. We are very pleased he was able to get above listing price for the home and ironed out all the details in a timely manner. I will definitely refer The Opulence Group to all my friends and family moving forward.”

The Community Center neighborhood offers residents a welcoming, walkable environment with accessible services, ample green spaces, and a lively calendar of events that fosters a strong sense of community.
Community Center places residents in the cultural and recreational heart of north Palo Alto, with an uncommon cluster of civic amenities within a few leafy blocks. Community gatherings, performances, and weddings animate the historic Lucie Stern Community Center, while the hands-on Palo Alto Junior Museum & Zoo sparks curiosity for all ages. Across the green, the updated Rinconada Library provides quiet study spaces and robust programming, and the Palo Alto Art Center showcases exhibitions alongside community classes. Rinconada Park’s lawns, playgrounds, and towering trees invite picnics and play, and swimmers log their laps at the city’s Rinconada Pool.
School pathways are a major draw: neighborhood families prize proximity to Walter Hays Elementary, Greene Middle School, and Palo Alto High School. Housing spans early Craftsman and Spanish Revival cottages to thoughtfully expanded contemporaries, with traffic-calmed streets that encourage evening strolls and weekend bike rides to Town & Country Village, University Avenue, and the farmers’ market. Architectural character continues into nearby Professorville and Crescent Park, and commuters appreciate quick connections to Menlo Park and the Caltrain station.
