"What a community asset you are, Nacio! While the East Bay is blessed with exceptional individuals throughout the professions, your are the realtor I wholeheartedly recommend to any buyer or seller - for your expertise, personal responsiveness, ethical consciousness, and intelligent, unfaltering energy. - Bob Baldock "In the market for a home, or need to sell one? Nacio Brown is the Zen Master of East Bay Real Estate!!. He's highly motivated, dependable, conscientious, and sharp as a tack. He guided us through the turbulent waters of the recessionary and post 9/11 real estate market, and got us $30K over our asking price!" - Rob & Diana Ooghe "Nacio is a realtor extraordinaire and a tremendous resource who consistently goes far beyond the call of duty. In fact, he is still working with us months after closing. Quite simply, no one commits themselves to their clients' goals more than Nacio." - Wendy Blue-Martinez "Nacio Brown is everything we'd hoped for in an agent. He is artistic, yet business savvy; warm, yet professional; knowledgeable and creative, yet approachable and open to his clients' ideas. He knows the Bay Area, hes seen trends come and go, and so he's not just a one-note singer -- he's a good guide in any market. He was solid and dependable during the biggest business transaction of our lives, and things worked out well. We will always be grateful to him. - Karen & Phil Cushman "Nacio Brown is the most knowledgeable, thorough, accurate, efficient, and generous-with-his-time realtor with whom I have ever dealt (in numerous transactions)." - GR Dickerson "Barbara and I have had occasion to call on the help of realtors nearly twenty times over the years. Most have been quite good, but none have provided us with the high level of professional and friendly service as has Nacio Brown. He not only helped us find just the right place to buy in Berkeley, but he guided us through every phase of the purchase process, even through we were a continent away." - James Rutherford "As out-of-state buyers, we required a knowledgeable, intelligent, diligent, honest, earnest and flexible realtor. We found all of this and more in Nacio. My wife was looking for just the right home in just the right neighborhood. I was looking for a reasonable commute into the city and a top school system for our son. Nacio guided us to Piedmont and helped us through the process of purchasing the perfect home for our needs. Additionally, his broad network of service providers, including a mortgage broker, a title company and a myriad of trades people were extremely helpful. Moreover, Nacio fostered our trust and respect. His goal was to help meet our needs, not to just close a deal. He was an objective and highly valuable source of information and advise. Finally, he was extremely generous with his time and highly patient. I recommend Nacio without reservation." - Steve Martinez "To anyone looking for an agent: Nacio Brown is an energetic go-getter. He represented us during the purchase and sale of our first home, and the purchase of our second home. In each of these three transactions we found Nacio to be extremely diligent, responsive and thorough. Although he had multiple clients, he always made us feel that even our smallest needs and concerns were at the top of his list. We found Nacio's knowledge about construction and experience in negotiations to be helpful to us as we went through the process. Most importantly, Nacio's integrity made us feel confident that he was representing our best interests in each transaction. We highly recommend Nacio Brown to anyone who is looking for a real estate agent in the Berkeley area." - John Reager and Marion Atherton "After transferring from New York, with a very different real estate market and negotiating strategy, Nacio Brown was the calm in the storm. His experience and straightforward talk guided us through the Berkeley market and into a home we truly love. We found an ally in Nacio, someone whose interest was not in closing the deal, but in finding us a home for our family. He accurately described the market, and told us what we'd need to bid to get a home (and we lost twice not taking his advice.) But more than anything, he became someone we like and, importantly, trust. Intelligent and honest, interesting and funny, Nacio is a wonderful reflection of Berkeley and all that we've come to love about the East Bay." - Lisa & Mike "Nacio - Thank you so very much for helping us take the plunge. Your store of knowledge on every and all subjects has been greatly appreciated." - All the best, - Andy & Heather "Nacio Brown was such an incredible help in assisting me with the purchase of my 2nd home. I am now a single mom and needed to find a price range that I could afford, which is a bit below Nacio's majority of clients. He made me feel just as important though, by answering my calls immediately and assisting me with so many things. I feel fortunate to have dealt with him once again and will do so again in the future!" - Brenda Haggitt "Dear Nacio, Thank you for your help in buying our new home. We appreciate your responsiveness, extensive knowledge of the Berkeley Real Estate business, and your willingness to find ways to work with us effectively although we were out-of-state buyers. Good luck in the future." - Jill Banfield & Perry Smith "This letter is to commend Nacio Brown for his handling of the sale of my home in Berkeley this spring. As a retired teacher I've given many grades and written many letters of recommendation; his grades are A's across the board and his recommendations sterling. The first phase, which was to educate me to the intricacies of real estate, he handled forthrightly but sensitively, understanding my insecurity and building a trusting relationship between us. In the middle phase, he clarified the paperwork, explained the priorities and my responsibilities. He was helpful when it came to the questions about disclosures. Finally, it was clear that he was respected by colleagues in your office and in other brokers' offices; this was due, I'm sure, to his friendly openness with everyone and because he had a reputation for thorough professionalism. Always available for details I worried about, making it tedious, sometimes, for him, he sustained me iwth his courtesy, good spirits and intelligent handling of the negotiations. It was not easy for me to give up a home and garden I had created. Nacio Brown is a very strong member of your team. You are fortunate to have him with you." - E.D. "I found Nacio Brown, my agent, to be extremely well informed about all aspects of the real estate business, including home construction and maintenance. I was impressed by his thoroughness and how prompt and helpful he was." - Philip Matson
