Testimonials
"If Quinn is a “salesman” then we’re the Royal Family. Come to think of it, he made us feel rather noble and he did sell us a house but...Quinn spent the first half hour showing us the Alameda house we eventually bought by pointing out its flaws. We expected no less from the man who acted with honesty and integrity every step of the way.
Quinn worked hard to learn what we wanted and needed in a home. He presented every property he showed with this understanding. He never had to “sell” anything because he knows who we are and what we like. We chose our real estate agent carefully. The last thing we wanted was a slick salesperson. There are a lot of them out there. Luckily we found Quinn - a hard working, intelligent agent with a wry wit who became our trusted adviser."
Jim & Nicole Iacona
"Quinn Stone not only delivers, he makes dreams come true.
In our experience, Quinn used a plethora of resources on a very tight budget to transform a well taken care of home into an irresistible starter home. Quinn’s knowledge around the laws of buying and selling homes was not only impressive, but key in translating and deciphering the language into digestible segments we could understand. With that kind of help, we felt we could really make the best decisions moving forward with selling our home.
Before we could sell our home, Quinn needed to earn our trust and help find us a home we could move into and most of all afford to buy. One of Quinn’s best attributes is his patience and, in turn, his ability to listen and really capture what you are trying to accomplish. This was imperative in earning our trust and the perfect recipe for success. We could tell that Quinn had a strong understanding of how the market was working at that time because the plan and timeline he put together for buying and selling our home was flawless.
Quinn takes working for you to another level. His investment in you is just as indispensable as your investment in him and it really shows. Quinn is not afraid to roll up his sleeves and get involved whenever needed, especially to meet a deadline.
Our hard work with Quinn and his resources really showed when we put our 2 bedroom 1 bath home up for sale asking for $565,000 and, in the end, received an offer for $600,000. Our faith in Quinn was solidified when we bought our new home for $675,000 when the sellers were asking for $695,000. It was truly an American Dream come true.
When you work with Quinn, it really doesn’t stop at the sale of your home or the purchase of your new home; he completes the experience in full. Meaning, if there are any loose ends that may arise after the sale or purchase of your home, he makes sure he is available to address them in whatever fashion possible. Still to this day, when Quinn does business in my neighborhood, he takes the time to stop by and say hi.
Quinn is a great realtor and I offer his services to anyone who is looking for someone who is patient and knowledgeable in the buying and selling of homes. Though we hired him in a professional manner, we truly gained a friend.
Quinn Stone delivers and he made our dreams come true."
Chris & Jessica Connor
I feel blessed to have worked with Quinn when I needed to sell my
condo in Oakland. I appreciated how present he was with the
process: he patiently walked me through the paperwork every step of the
way; he shared with me his ideas and he listened to mine throughout the
process; and he made great suggestions and improvements to the value of
my property. Also, Quinn is an expert in market fluctuations. In
addition, he is an easy going and warm person. I would say that he
combines real estate expertise with caring for his client. I would
highly recommend Quinn to my best friend or a family member interested
in buying or selling properties in the Bay Area.

We were first time homebuyers with a limited budget, and knew we were in
great hands with Quinn. During our housing search we really felt that he was
protecting our interests, while finding us a home in a neighborhood that
would make us happy.
We still can't believe how well we did. Quinn was able to help us find a
beautiful house in excellent shape. He helped us negotiate for a price below
asking, and was with us at every step of the process, including showing up
at the closing with a huge bouquet of flowers.
Quinn has a great sense of humor, was very calming to work with, and would
present facts and expertise about the houses without injecting himself into
the decision process. We felt that we were his most important clients when
we were working with him, and that he as always available to answer our
questions, show us houses, or meet with us to complete paperwork.
We would be happy to recommend Quinn to anyone with real estate needs.
L. Talley & T. Traynor
"We feel very lucky to have met Quinn Stone to help us find a home. We had very tight constraints yet Quinn was always understanding, patient, and had a positive attitude about everything. This is our second home and of the three real estate agents we have worked with, Quinn is the only one we would be happy to work with again."
Mr. and Mrs. George Penston
Alameda, CA
"Having lived all over the United States, I've had experience working with numerous different real estate agents in numerous different markets. However, I've never received the level of individual support and assistance that Quinn Stone offered during my Alameda home search. Quinn made me feel that he was genuinely interested in finding a property that met my needs, rather than simply trying to complete a transaction. His experience, patience, and advice throughout our relationship made what can sometimes be a stressful experience very enjoyable.
I would strongly recommend Quinn for anyone's real estate needs."
David Dozier
"Now that Jodie and I settled in our new home, I wanted to take a minute to thank you for being a big part of the reason that we are here. You stuck with us and remained patient, always suggesting options, but never pushing us to pursue properties that we were unsure about. Having purchased one of the lower priced homes on the market in Alameda, I think it's fair to say that we weren't your biggest client, but we never felt like were taking a back seat to anybody. Thanks again for everything you did, Quinn. We couldn't have done this without you and your knowledge of the marketplace. We will continue to recommend you to friends who are looking (and anyone else that will listen)"
Ken Banks
"As first time home buyers, we thought the process would be daunting, but Quinn made it easy. He helped us find just the right home to fit our needs, and once our offer was accepted, he went out of his way to prevent any problems from arising and ensure that everything went smoothly from beginning to end. When the time is right, we will definitely work with him again."
Norene & Andrew Griffin
I am sure there are more challenging first-time home buyers than my husband and I, but I would be hard pressed to imagine who they might be. We knew that we wanted the right house...and that was about all we knew! Quinn was fantastic. He took so much time with us! His endless patience and grace-under-pressure personality made it so easy. We love the house Quinn found for us, and we knew that, with anyone else, we would have been rushed into a decision we weren't ready for. Quinn made sure we always felt like we weren't buying a house, but finding our home, and that he was ready to stick with us for as long as that took.
Alycia & Dave Shilton-Lloyd
"Quinn Stone is a true professional who maintains a high degree of integrity and
loyalty. In the four transactions that he has completed for our family, Quinn
paid attention not only to the smallest detail, but also to the "big picture."
Quinn deployed the necessary skill, experience and competence to yield
extraordinary results. If you want just an ordinary real estate agent, go to
someone else. If you want results from a pro, start with Quinn and the Bayside
Team!"
Ben & Susan Reyes
"Quinn conducted himself in a superlative manner over the lengthy period of time required to bring our home sale to completion. I'm sure the project stretched, but never cracked, his positive equanimity. The property recently sold for $1,000,000.
Quinn handled himself with great tact, discretion and diplomacy as he worked with his two challenging sellers, neighbors, contractors, and homeowner's association to accomplish the end result. I cannot imagine that anyone could have done a better job in representing his seller's interests and in keeping things moving ever forward.
I heartily recommend Quinn to anyone needing help in buying or selling real estate and would certainly use his services again if the need should arise."

Quinn Stone, what can we say about Quinn? Quinn was the perfect match for my husband and me. We met Quinn one Sunday while driving in Alameda. We were interested in a house he was listing, and although, we did not have a realtor, and were not even interested in purchasing a house, none of that mattered when we stepped foot inside. Quinn was great. He was with us every step of the way, even when it was not necessary. Once we said yes, he had us on the fast track. He made sure we understood everything and anything about the house. The man was thorough. We could not have asked for a better realtor. We were so impressed, once the sale of the house was completed, we asked Quinn to sell our existing house. Quinn then took charge! He told us what we needed to do to get ready for the market. He was brutally honest with us on what worked and what needed to be changed. It took a while for our house to sell … no fault of Quinn, the market took a dive… but with his patience, determination, and persistence, he sold our house. We could not have asked for a better Realtor. He worked very closely with us through the entire process and is now a part of the family.
Cordovas,Alameda, CA
We were challenging home-buyers, and without Quinn's patience and great sense of humour, this process might have been very difficult to navigate. We were slow to make decisions and took a long time at each house we saw. Quinn was very helpful in telling us details about the houses including trustful comments about the houses' needs and how much we would spend to fix things that needed to be fixed. We were grateful to find a real estate agent who had a real commitment to help us find the best place for us to live in and also to get us the best deal. During the closing process, Quinn was just amazing in negotiating in our favor and getting us even a reduction in price! He was just a delight to work with, and would make our weekends a fun and exciting journey instead of a dragging process. We loved to work with him and still tell our friends about his reliable and positive attitude. We love our house and we know that we really found the best place for us! And Quinn made it happen. He was just the perfect real estate agent: real, honest, gentle, and with a good sense of humour. And even got me smoothies in the hot days of the Summer!
C. Bacchi,Alameda, CA
I recommend Quinn without reservation. He was my realtor in the purchase of my current home and was attentive, responsive and creative. This characteristics were key in making my offer the "winning" offer for which I am thankful. I would definitly seek out Quinn again for any furture real estate transactions. Finally, Quinn is technolology savy which makes it very easy to work with him. Thank you again Quinn!
