Wendy did an amazing job helping us sell our home in Alameda, CA. She specializes in that area, and as a result, is very in tune with what the market is doing. Given that we were living remotely in another city, it was not easy to walk the property with her, but we overcame all that with video conferences, FaceTime, etc. Wendy was incredibly responsive and kept us in the loop through constant contact. She also has an incredible team at her fingertips to take care of all the little improvements we needed to make to ensure the property would sell for its best value. Once hired, she rapidly assembled detailed repair and marketing plans to put into acti...

Ben is knowledgeable, respectful, and extremely professional. My husband and I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know him through the process of purchasing our first home. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a real estate professional to help with your home purchase/sale!

Wendy worked with us to sell my late father's home in a difficult market. We did not live nearby and had to rely on Wendy, her staff, and her contacts to get the house ready for sale and sold. Her local knowledge was critical both in preparing the house for sale and also in knowing the right price to ask for and accept. I cannot recommend Wendy Sanda more highly.

Ben with Ben Wahli Real Estate is amazing. If you need someone honest and willing to go the extra mile to sell or buy a home, he's who you need. From the beginning to the end was a smooth transaction. He's willing to help in any way he can. Thank you so much, Ben, for everything you did for us.

Wendy Sanda was extremely skillful and thoughtful every step of the way in a fairly complicated and difficult sales process. She was generous in preparing the home for sale. She kept me informed of each detail of the process. She was cheerful and encouraging whenever I might have been discouraged. I am totally happy with the results.

Ben helped me search for and navigate the purchase of my first investment property, and continues to be a wonderful mentor. This was a very involved process in which Ben took great care to understand my goals and deal parameters as he guided me with seasoned expertise. Ben also took the time to show and explain to me a number of the projects he's been involved with and I continue to be so impressed with Ben and his team! Ben really understands the real estate market and has both a passion and talent for honoring the character of a home, bringing out its most valuable traits, and helping people sell or find the home of their dreams. Ben also continue...

Wendy helped us buy our dream home, so when the time came to sell our previous "starter" home, it was an easy decision to work with her again. So, at the beginning of the year, we told Wendy it was time to sell our previous home, but it needed quite a bit of "freshening up" before selling (new interior paint, carpet, counters, furnace, etc.). Once enough stuff was moved out of the house, we did a walk-through with Wendy in mid-March, came up with a plan of attack, and had it on the market at the beginning of May. Given the uncertainty of the market, we knew we wanted to move quickly. Wendy had all the right contacts (too many to list here) and staye...

A shoutout to Ben Wahli, Tammy Wahli, and the entire team, where they make real estate dangerously easy! Five years ago, we stumbled upon the fact that a house that had previously caught Kristin’s eye was up for auction in a matter of days. Ben got access to the house and brought in tradesmen to help us understand the work that needed to be completed. Then we went to the auction, and we won! Over the next few years, we learned so much about clay tile roofs, repairing plaster, restoring and protecting stained glass windows, painting, plumbing, electrical, clearing vines, and oh, so much cleaning! It gave us a safe space to hunker down, bake sourdough...

I am rating Wendy five stars in each category. She is very knowledgeable about the local real estate market in Alameda. She responded promptly to all of my requests. She thoroughly understands California real estate law, and she made the process a breeze. I would highly recommend Wendy to either a seller of real estate or a buyer.

We had a great experience listing with Ben Wahli. I would highly recommend him. He is very knowledgeable and professional. He judged the market better than the other realtors we contacted, which resulted in a sale price significantly higher than we would have received. Ben and his staff made recommendations and helped us stage our home in preparation for showing. All his advice and assistance paid off, and we successfully sold our home on the first day on the market. I can not emphasize our satisfaction with Ben enough as our listing agent.
— Robert M.
She pitched in voluntarily to help deal with financial complications, and at every stage went "above and beyond." She was delightful to work with. In addition, it was a quick sale, above the asking price, with all aspects handled expeditiously and pleasantly. What more could a seller ask for?
— Gail W.
Ben and Tammy Wahli compose a real estate team that is second to none, and, accordingly, they get the job done. Whether you are selling or buying a home, their team knows the real estate business inside and out. Plus, they add a much-needed human touch to the weighty home-sweet-home decision-making process. I count my blessings that I have had Ben and Tammy in my corner in my real estate endeavors.

Wendy was knowledgeable about market conditions and very well informed about properties in our area. She took extra time with us to discuss what our goals were and the best way to reach them. We followed her recommendation to immediately pull all our documents and disclosures together, and this greatly facilitated having the sale go through without delays. Her advice and help in getting our property updated and ready were invaluable. She truly went way beyond what I would expect an agent to do in helping us. Wendy gets credit not just for getting the property sold at a price beyond our expectations, but also for getting it sold immediately. I could ...

Ben and Tammy worked closely with us on a house we inherited due to a death in the family. Wife did not want it to be sold in the condition it was. With Tammy’s help, the house was updated on the inside, and then Ben took over and did a video that he narrated. Posted it and pictures online and scheduled an open house. Before the open house, we had multiple showings and one realtor calling and begging to cancel the open house. We received a full offer the next day and accepted. Closed the next month. Ben and the team did a great job, and I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.
— Todd H.
I absolutely recommend Wendy! Wendy was our agent in the sale of a condo in Alameda which my siblings and I inherited when my mom passed away. She is absolutely respectful and professional, extremely knowledgeable, and hardworking, especially in preparing properties for sale. She is an expert at negotiating the entire process. She is an excellent and positive communicator and keeps a sense of humor and kindness at all times. We readied our property for sale in record time and realized a sale price I never imagined possible with Wendy’s skill and savvy.

Ben and his team were amazing at helping us find a house better suited for our family and sell our old house!
— Brittany M.
Wendy did an extraordinary job throughout the process. Given some difficult logistical issues on my end (unexpected travel), many details needed to be attended to by Wendy, and she accomplished them all with speed, quality, and grace. Extremely professional and easy to deal with, Wendy made this transaction the very best in my life (and I have bought and sold a dozen homes over my life). I can't recommend Wendy more highly for any real estate needs.

Ben is the best in the business!

Wendy helped us relocate to Alameda recently. When I first reached out to Wendy, I was looking for leads on rentals, and she was helpful to me even though she had nothing to gain (she does sales, not rentals). When we switched to a purchase strategy, it felt natural to keep working with her. She is very knowledgeable about Alameda and has deep ties to the community. There's no way to overstate how important that is, especially in this tight market. Wendy was unfailingly jovial, helpful, and positive, and always responded immediately. She sometimes even reached out when there were no immediate issues to tackle, just to check in. She handled all inter...
Luxury real estate, done right. From private yacht showings to expert staging and marketing, Ben Wahli helps sellers showcase their homes at their absolute best — and helps buyers fall in love with waterfront living.
