Sonkoly Mason McDuffie Realty 380 Diablo Road Danville, CA 94526 Dear Istvan, %¿ I would like to thank you very much for the outstanding work you did selling my land in Montclair, Oakland. As one of the 3000 victims of the October 1992 fire-storm in Oakland, my house was burned to the ground and all vegetation on the property destroyed. Needless to say the property was not in a pretty state when I decided to sell the remaining charred parcel of land. In fact several realtors in Brand X companies gave me very pessimistic estimates on how much I should try to sell it for. When I contacted you, on a recommendation from a previously satisfied customer, I was immediately impressed by your positive innovative sales attitude and the rapid formulation of an effective sales strategy utilizing Mason-McDuffie's wide network, newspapers, and realtor association meetings to advertise and concentrate on the positive potentials of the property. I was amazed how quickly the first serious offer came by. During the following weeks of offers and counter offers your firm control over the process and professional advice were crucial to enable the rapid convergence of a deal which I am very satisfied with. It has been a pleasure to work with you, and I would not hesitate to recommend your services to anyone needing expert professional realty services. rely yours, Dr. Miklos Gyulassy^ Scientific Director Nuclear Theory

I personally in the past year have known 3 clients of Sharon and Istvan.   Their expertise and knowledge of their profession is commendible.

My nephew was a first time buyer and Sharon and Istvan guided him through the whole learning process of purchasing a home.    Istvan and Sharon sold my mothers home and another friends home.
They all were so pleased and satisfied with the service they received as well as the compassion shown by Sharon and Istvan.   They are so cooperative and helpful.

My mother's home had to be renovated and it took some time to do this (4 months).   They were so very supportive through our stressful times trying to get it ready to sell.   They were so helpful in suggestions they had for us to help enhance the appearance of the home.

They also "staged" my mother's home. It looked so beautiful.   I was overwhelmed by their artistic decorating talents.   What more could we ask for.

My mother was so fortunate to have such a personable and encouraging couple to help her sell her home. We have nothing but praise for "The International Couple".

It is my pleasure to share this experience with others and I continue to refer them to my friends.

God Bless Them

I have had the great opportunity of working with Istvan Sonkoly & Sharon Beck in the sale of my home in Concord. This was a most rewarding and enlightening experience for me.

I listed my home in late June of 2005. It needed a lot of work done to it to put it on the market. Well, four months later it was ready, October of 2005. My house sold within the first week.   An open house was held immediately when we completed our renovation.   Closing went smoothly and I encountered no problems thru the process of the sale.

With the help of Istvan and Sharon offering their great expertise on decorating ideas and simple improvements to the home, painting, wall colors etc. etc., it greatly improved the value of my home. My home was also staged by Istvan and Sharon and it looked like a model home.

They were both so easy to work with and had an extreme amount of patience during the improvements. They would stop by several times a week to see how we were progressing.   They also recommended a very reliable company to perform the termite & home inspection and roof inspection.   I was very pleased and happy with their referral.

I would not hesitate to refer my friends and family to Istvan and Sharon. I was referred to them by a friend and I am so grateful for their professional and public relations skills as well. I had no problems throughout the whole process of selling my home.

I think the "International Couple" are an asset to their professioin.

Satisfied Client,
