"I couldn’t recommend the Beard Realty Team enough!
We worked with Stephen Beard twice now and both times our stressful situation was made very easy for us. We had a bit of a tricky situation in which we wanted to sell a condo but keep the tenant residing there. Stephen was incredibly helpful in informing us of all of our options as well as being completely understanding of what we wanted. He was truly an advocate and a wonderful advisor. We ended up getting the perfect deal and everything went smoothly.
I feel it’s rare that you can find someone who is knowledgeable, transparent, and also has a good heart to boot. This team is all of these things and you should not hesitate to work with them.

"We’re first-time homebuyers who were referred to Stephen and Basak by way of friends who spoke highly of their experience. After several months of working with them, we’ve successfully bought our first home and are super-excited about our purchase! Stephen and Basak are patient and ethically-minded professionals who spent significant time with us to make sure that all of our questions were answered as we walked through the frequently-convoluted process of buying a home in the Bay Area. While we were newcomers to this, we never felt rushed, pressured, or that time could not be found for us, but rather Stephen and Basak were always available to us and saw to our (many) questions with warmth, good-humor, and superb professionalism. We extend our highest recommendation for the Beard Realty Team to anyone who happens to be buying or selling a home in the Bay Area!"

"My wife and I are so grateful to have been referred to Stephen and Basak of the Beard Realty Team! They were both extremely knowledgable, thorough and helpful throughout the process. On top of that, they are both ethical, kind and compassionate people, which we greatly appreciated as this purchase process was challenging in many different ways. They helped us navigate different personalities, delays, negotiations and finally got us all the way to buying our first home in the Bay Area, in a great neighborhood where we will be happy for many years to come. We could not recommend them more highly. "

"I’m a wheelchair user (paraplegic) who moved to the Bay Area in 2015 and rented many apartments. Because of the cost of real estate in the area, I assumed that I would never be able to purchase a home here. That was 5 years ago when I was in my early 20s.
After dealing with broken elevators, inaccessible kitchens, & tiny bathrooms, I decided at the end of 2019 I wanted to buy. At first, I went solo and tried sites which got me absolutely nowhere. Every house or condo I saw was inaccessible. Getting there was a hassle and the agents were ignorant about the needs of people with disabilities.
Then I Googled “Bay Area wheelchair home purchase” and probably “ADA home buying Oakland.” Guess who popped up? The Beard Realty team.
From our first conversation to key delivery, Stephen and Basak were friendly, honest, and transparent. Even when I wanted to see 2-story lofts, they were willing to accompany me on the tour and problem-solve with me.
I not only ended up with a beautiful home in a great neighborhood, but I learned a lot along the way. At the beginning of a pandemic no less, what I thought was probably impossible turned possible and then real.
Wanna buy a house? Call Stephen. Even if you don’t have a disability. If you DO have a physical disability, definitely call Stephen. Or email him like I did :-)
Now, off to continue making my new home wheelchair user’s paradise… "

"I am someone whose first homebuying experience was a nightmare. Working with Stephen this time around could not have been more different. It was an extremely positive experience. Most importantly, Stephen is honest and ethical. He cares about doing right by people. Also important, he is very knowledgeable and experienced. His explanations were clear and informative, and by following his lead, I was able to sell my home for more than I’d expected. I was very pleased with the process and would recommend Stephen to anyone hoping to navigate the tough Bay area housing market with support and solid advice."

"Stephen helped me sell my mother’s house after she passed away. He quickly and accurately assessed the work work that needed to be done, the time it would take, the costs, and the value it would add to the house. All of Stephen’s advice and assessments were spot on, the project went exactly as planned, and he got me the best value possible for the property.
He also helped us navigate the offers and negotiated the best price.
During every step of the process Stephen was highly competent, efficient, and easy to talk to. It was a difficult time for me personally and having Stephen to handle the sale of the house was a huge relief. I could not recommend him more highly. "
