Liz and Alexis were so helpful for us in buying a house! We had an odd situation where we had to bring in a realtor very late in the process, and they had no problem jumping right in and advocating for us the whole way through.

Alexis helped my fiance’ and I purchase our first home together. Alexis offered her expertise every step of the way- from making offers to closing. She made herself available for showings and walk throughs, according to our schedule, which we greatly appreciated. Alexis answered any and all questions we had throughout the buying process. The entire Venema Homes team was and still is incredibly helpful and accommodating!

In August of 2025 my younger single brother passed away. As a result, I was saddled with administrating his Trust. Among the Items that needed to be sold was his residence in Santa Clara. As I had not been in the housing market sales for over 50 years, I was concerned of the process. I contacted Venema Homes and the sale process was started. Venema's army of experts stepped in and things began to happen within a week. Venema Homes reviewed the property and provided a list of recommendations to aide in the sale. I original was concerned but quickly realized they knew their stuff. So, I followed the recommendations. Within a month all the upgrades were completed, and an open house was scheduled. The activity was more than expected and we receive two offers, both above asking. The final price was $150,000 over asking. If you are looking to buy or sell you will Not find a more professional, well-organized team of realtor's than Venema Homes. I strongly recommend them.

The Venema team was highly professional, thoughtful, and effective. We were selling our home while living out of the area, and they made the process of selling from a distance go quite smoothly. They also skillfully managed the significant amount of work that needed to be done on our home to prepare it for sale. We highly recommend this team!

Liz and her wonderful energetic team are the best. They have a network of buyers and take selling your home very seriously. Hands down the best realtor in the valley!!!

Liz and her team did a fabulous job listing, marketing, and selling our Pleasanton home. From the initial meeting to the close of escrow every detail was handled professionally. Their entire team has excellent communication skills.  Venema Homes kept us informed and confident through all aspects of our transaction. Their marketing channels proved to be broad and creative, presenting our home to the entire buying market. Liz and her team have deep marketing knowledge in this changing environment which was incredibly helpful.  They carefully guided us by suggesting appropriate home upgrades to best attract the maximum number of buyers in the current market conditions. We will certainly use their services again.

I'm happy to leave a 5 star review for Venema Homes. We had a long and fairly complicated sale of some rental property and they stayed on top of things all the way through. It worked out well and we even got a good price.

Liz Venema is exceptional as well as her team. We highly recommend their stellar service, wisdom and insight!

My husband and I love this team. Liz Venema sold our home in Pleasanton. Communication was seamless and we received multiple offers above list price. We are very happy with the outcome highly recommend Liz Venema and her team.

Jake was such a pleasure to work with as first time home buyers. He answered all of our questions, gave great advice, and helped make buying our dream home stress free. I would highly recommend Jake to anyone.

Working with Alexis was such a wonderful experience. From the very beginning, she was warm, approachable, and always made us feel supported throughout the process. She was quick to respond whenever we had questions (big or small). She made the whole home buying process so much easier than we expected..highly recommend!

Venema Homes has been the most professional Real Estate Team I have ever worked with. They are so proactive in the way they handled our transaction. They were in constant communication at every step of the process. When buying or selling property in the future I will not entertain using any other firm. Liz and her team were fantastic!!

Liz and her team were fantastic in helping us sell our home. We knew from the beginning that Venema Homes was the realtor for us. They all worked so hard enabling us to get our home ready to sell, and then marketing it expertly. They were constantly available and encouraging when we had questions or concerns. While the whole process took longer than we all thought, Venema Homes brought just the right buyer to our home--a family to love it and have as many wonderful memories as we have had. Thank you Venema Team!!

Thank you Liz & the staff at Venema Homes for the beautiful photo album you put together of my home that I loved and lived in for 40 years.. It’s was the extra personal touch that made the experience easier for me.. Thank you Venema Homes..

Working with Liz and her team was a delight. Liz is competent and savvy. She knows the numbers, is creative in her approach and filled with gratitude and joy. If you are in the market for a home, give Liz and her team a call. You will have an incredible experience.

Alexis was our realtor and helped us through the process of buying our first home! She was patient, kind, and helped us find the perfect location for us! She communicated well with other realtors and always got our questions answered quickly. Thank you Alexis, Neil who was a wonderful lender, and Venema homes 🏠 🤍✨

Liz and her team were amazing partners in selling our house. From the initial meeting, to staging, helping w landscaping, etc their team is full service. All of their suggestions, tips and tricks, and advice resulted in 13 offers. We're so thankful for all they did for us!

Liz is amazing agent, once we started initial conversation about selling out house, Liz gave personal attention to detail for all aspects during the selling process. Liz gave recommendations on how to stage the house and did follow through them perfectly. We are very happy with the service provided and would highly recommend.

Selling a home from out of state can be stressful, but Liz and Alexis made the entire process seamless and worry-free. From the very beginning, they were professional, communicative, and incredibly knowledgeable about the market. They went above and beyond to handle every detail, from coordinating inspections and repairs to staging and marketing the property beautifully. Their expertise ensured that we received competitive offers quickly, and they guided us through negotiations with skill and transparency. What truly set Liz and Alexis apart was their dedication. They kept us updated at every step, promptly answered all our questions, and provided honest advice that helped us make informed decisions. Their ability to manage everything remotely gave us complete peace of mind. If you’re looking for a reliable, efficient, and genuinely caring real estate agent, I highly recommend the Venema team. They turned what could have been a stressful process into a smooth and successful sale.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Liz and Alexis from Venema Homes to sell our Pleasanton house, and the entire process was incredibly smooth. From the moment I met them, their energy and enthusiasm were undeniable—it was an instant connection. I was truly impressed by the strategy and dedication they brought to selling our home, ensuring we received the best possible deal. Their diligence in staying on top of every detail and keeping us informed at every step made all the difference. Their communication and expertise were invaluable throughout the process. What makes Liz and Alexis a fantastic team is their complementary strengths—Liz brings a wealth of experience, while Alexis infuses fresh, innovative ideas. Their teamwork, coordination, and ability to manage the entire process so efficiently were remarkable. I highly, highly recommend them if you are selling or buying a home. Thank you, Liz and Alexis!

Working alongside Liz & Alexis Venema was an exceptional experience from beginning to end. They consistently aim for excellence and deliver results with unwavering dedication. Their expertise shines, particularly in the Pleasanton market, including the Ruby Hill community. Throughout our search for a home, the Venema team consistently presented some of the most enticing listings in the area. Beyond their professional prowess, the entire team exudes warmth, making the process a delight. When we finally identified the property we desired, Liz and Alexis guided us and helped us through the negotiation process remaining highly responsive and consistently available. Their commitment to service extends far beyond the sale itself. Even post-purchase, they remained steadfast in offering valuable guidance, connecting us with trusted contractors, and providing ongoing advice. If you are looking at buying or selling a home in the Pleasanton area, this is the A-Team to go with!

Alexis and the Venema Homes Team made my first home-buying experience an absolute joy! From start to finish, Alexis was knowledgeable, professional, and incredibly responsive. She guided me through every step of the process and helped get my offer accepted in a very competitive market. Her enthusiasm and dedication were truly evident, and I could feel how much she and the Venema Homes Team shared in my excitement when I finally got the keys. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a home!

Liz helped me in getting my current home 8-9 years ago. After the purchase, She and her team has constantly keep in touch with me. Every year, in most special occasion/event, they make special bakery for their past clients. Keep up the good work and I believe your clients will recommend or come back to you and your team for any property related matters!

we bought our house at Ruby Hills from Liz. it was great ro work with her and she told care of all details from start to end. She is in touch with us for our needs or anything we need from her or their team.

We have had the pleasure of knowing Liz for over 10 years, and she is truly an incredible and kind hearted person. Beyond being a knowledgeable real estate agent and advisor, Liz has always been a genuine well-wisher, offering guidance and support every step of the way. She leads a fantastic team, including her wonderful daughter, Alexis, who share her passion for excellence in real estate. Whether you're a first-time home buyer, seller, or investor, Liz is your go-to expert. She is always willing to share her insights, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. One of the biggest advantages of working with Liz is her strong network of professionals, including highly reliable loan agents who secure the best deals and ensure timely closings. Her connections and expertise make all the difference in today’s competitive market. If you're looking for a trustworthy and dedicated real estate expert in the Bay Area, especially the Tri-Valley region, Liz is the one to call. I wholeheartedly recommend her—reach out to her, and you’ll be in the best hands!

We had an exceptional experience working with Liz, Lisa, Michelle, and the whole team at Venema Homes! From start to finish, they were professional, attentive, and dedicated to getting us the best results. Thanks to their efforts, we received multiple offers, with many over asking price. The entire process was seamless, and we especially appreciated the stunning home staging, which highlighted the home beautifully. The marketing materials were top-notch and helped our listing stand out. The team did an excellent job hosting the open house, attracting many potential buyers. This was our second time working with Liz to sell a home, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Venema Homes to anyone looking to buy or sell. Their expertise and commitment made all the difference!

Liz Venema was great to deal with. Very knowledgeable, connected, and eternally positive and upbeat. Our house received multiple offers and we were in escrow in less than a week with no contingencies! Highly recommend Liz and her team.

We had a fantastic experience working with Michelle Kroger as our real estate agent. She is highly professional, patient, and truly took the time to understand our needs. Her deep knowledge of the Tri-Valley area was invaluable in helping us find the perfect home. We met Michelle at one of the open houses at Pleasanton and were very impressed with her experience and knowledge of the prevailing real estate market conditions. Michelle was always accommodating, making herself available to answer our questions and guide us through the process with ease. Her friendly and approachable nature made what could have been a stressful experience enjoyable. If you’re looking for a dedicated and knowledgeable agent, we highly recommend Michelle and the Venema homes team!

Liz Venmo is one of the best! She sold my house six years ago and Ruby Hill. and Lisa Desmond is one of my friends, and I highly recommend her as well.

Liz and her staff were fun, professional and energetic from listing to sold. Their follow through was their greatest asset. When they said something, they did it. When they had open houses, I received a summary of activity, prospect reactions and follow up actions on their part. They explained the next steps thoroughly to me before they happened. Knowledge is King and I was treated like Royalty. Thank you Liz and your Team!

We just wanted to take a moment to thank you for everything you’ve done for us! Your expertise, dedication, and genuine care made our home-buying experience truly amazing. We couldn’t be happier in our home—it’s everything we hoped for and more! It’s no surprise that we’ve been more than happy to refer our friends to you—you’re simply the best! Looking forward to staying in touch and continuing to send more people your way - Jesal

Liz and her team are awesome. The whole team knows their stuff - from Liz, to their in-house construction team - Vista Construction! I would recommend Venema Homes Real Estate Team over and over again. Great job!

My husband and I were extremely pleased with the services provided by Venema Homes in selling my mother-in-law's home. Liz and Alex, as well as their team, were such a pleasure to deal with. We chose them as our realtors because it was clear to us from the get-go that they were experienced and exceptionally knowledgeable about the local market. They provided us with detailed information and documentation about the most recent transactions in our area and their marketing was truly impressive and comprehensive. They offered welcome guidance and suggestions throughout the process, but without the least bit of pressure. They really LISTENED and were incredibly responsive (even in the wee hours of the morning!), always providing thoughtful and detailed responses to all of our many questions and comments. And they were unfailingly upbeat; it felt as though we were their number one priority! An added and tremendous advantage was their partnering with Vista Construction, which made an all out effort to ready the home with some much needed updates in record time, with beautiful results and with very fair pricing. They worked hard to negotiate on our behalf for what we felt was a seamless and expeditious transaction , and we were very happy with the resulting sale. In short, they exceeded all our expectations. We could not have been more pleased with their services, and would wholeheartedly recommend them.

Timely and rapid workmanship on restoring older home getting it ready for sale and quick sales with sound advice on sales in local area and pricing.

Venema home helped tour a house at short notice and the whole closing process is ultra smooth.

Liz and team are seasoned professionals who can guide you through rough times in the market. When market is normal and predictable, any reasonably diligent agent can be successful. But in unpredictable times Liz's experience made all the difference. And certainly worth mentioning are the pleasant interactions we had, and the sensible, at times also generous support by her personally, as well as her well-trained team. Example: staging, which is "included" for as long as needed.

Liz and her team are the BEST!

My partner has known Alexis since Elementary school, and I have known her since high school. Working with her offered an immediate sense of comfortability and familiarity. As first time homebuyers, the process was nothing short of stressful, at many times discouraging, and all time consuming. Alexis's patience, encouragement, strong networking skills, and all around hard work landed us a house that checked all our boxes. She was available to us at any time with answers to our questions and offered valuable feedback anytime we viewed a property. With a housing market as challenging as the current one, we didn't know if we would ever find "the house." We are incredibly grateful to Alexis and so appreciative of her diligence in finding us our dream first home we can easily and confidently see ourselves in for the next several years. Just saying thank you doesn't feel like nearly enough of an effort in showing our gratitude! We are so happy with our home and recommend Alexis and her team for any future home buying or selling.

The Venema team sold our home in 12 days! Everyone is professional and they all work together to make it happen. They walk you through every step so you know what to do and what to expect. I highly recommend.

We had a fantastic experience with Liz Venema, Lexie Venema, and the entire Venema Homes team. From our initial meeting regarding selling our home to closing on our current home we had a stress free and seamless experience. The team is knowledgable, professional, detail oriented, focused, kind, and caring. I recommend Venema Homes to anyone buying or selling property! You truly will experience excellence.

Great team! Lovely kind bunch of people to work with. I highly recommend this team

I have known Liz Venema for about 25 years. I saw her attentiveness and compassion for kids and families with the child care business she founded and successfully managed. I saw her heart as she and her family dug deep to donate and support my MS fundraiser for my sister, year after year. When it came time to sell my house, I was reconnected to Liz and her partner and daughter Alexis. I won’t say going into that meeting I expected to sign up with the Venema Homes team. I didn’t know Liz that way. And selling my house was the goal. Liz and Alexis, in a very professional and personal way, showed that they were the right pick for me. They demonstrated a combination of a successful history selling high end homes, a modern process utilizing social media and technology and a personal attentiveness to a delicate engagement as my wife and I were in the process of getting divorced and Liz knows both of us. I signed up on the spot. Liz, Alexis and their team kept me informed, earned my complete trust, listened well, gave good advice and were successful in selling our house in the middle of a market that was a bit in turmoil with all the recent interest rate and inflationary pressures. They delivered In every way I hoped for. Thank you all for all you did for me.

Can’t say enough about this real estate team. They treat you like family. During Covid my wife and I went to 3 other real estate teams before we landed on Venema. We had trouble selling our home. The staff at Venema immediately jumped on listing the home and got it sold. In addition, they sold us our house we are currently in. Thank you guys for the high quality service and the continual commitment to stay a family.

The thought of moving out of our home of 27 years was daunting and overwhelming but Liz and Brenda made it as easy as possible. The Venema Homes Team was exceptional and guided us though the process step by step. Liz is very knowledgeable. competent, resourceful and well connected. Brenda was always responsive, informative, communicative and always looking out for our best interests. We were able to sell our home sooner than we ever expected and are so grateful for all their help.

Professional and courteous.

We were lucky and honored to have Venema Homes Real Estate Team as our listing agent team. We appreciate every step they made to make our house selling easy and fast. We would be happy to recommend the team to our friends.

Liz and her team went above and beyond helping us sell our Pleasanton home as well as connecting us with a realtor to help with the purchase of our new home in Spokane. Venema Real Estate was professional, handled all the details and made the entire process very simple. You need professionals on your side and they are a group that you can trust and rely upon. Jack

Liz Venema sold my home in Ruby Hill in October 2022. She was easy to work with. Her teams runs like clockwork. They are good at letting you when things need to happen. Liz answers all your questions and will find the answer if she doesn't know it. Liz is able to offer renovation ideas to help you get the best price. I am very happy with the sale. I recommended Liz to my friends and I know two others chose Liz to sell their home.

Very positive experience. Michelle Kroger was the consummate professional, keeping track on the process, discussing and advising making offers and generally working hard throughout the process.

The Venema team did an awesome job when we purchased our home. Home tour to writing and offer to offer acceptance took about 10 hours total. They guided and counseled us every step of the way and continued to support us through the home closing and even after. Couldn't have been happier! Highly recommend!

Working with Michelle has been a fantastic experience. She truly enhanced our home-buying journey, and we wholeheartedly endorse her and Venema homes!

Alexis was amazing, answering all of our questions and helping us land our dream home.

Because of Liz and Alexi’s team, we found our dream house in Ruby Hills, Pleasanton CA. They are so professional, caring and understanding throughout the transactions of our sell and buy.. We highly recommend Venema homes to all of friends in need of real estate needs.. Thanks and Regards, Murali and Shanthi

After interviewing Liz Venema and Lisa Desmond we were impressed with their professionalism and personable approach to listing our home. We quickly signed with the Venema Team and we couldn't have been more pleased. The process of listing, making improvements, showing the home, negotiating multiple offers and helping us settle on the right offer was an easy process due to their guidance. We maintained an open communication relationship and they were very responsive to our goals and desires. I would not hesitate in trusting any future properties with the entire Venema Team.

Michelle from Venema Homes team helped with our home purchase.. She has been exceptional at her job and made sure she was available for us until the whole process was completed. It was a wonderful experience working with her and will not hesitate to recommend to family & friends.

We highly recommend Liz Venema and the Venema Homes team. My wife and I interviewed, met with, and carefully considered three of the top realty teams with proven track records in our area. We selected the Venema Homes team after doing back channel references, comparing and contrasting each of their marketing presentations, and then discerning who was telling us what we wanted to hear vs. their unbiased professional view of the marketability and pricing of our home. We found that Viz Venema and team operated with high integrity and fulfilled the commitments that they made as they were pursuing our business. Their relationships with potential buyers ended up bringing us interested parties, with multiple offers. We ended up coming to terms on one of them in just 10 days when many other homes in our neighborhood had been on the market for a much longer period of time at lower prices and lower prices per square foot. We believe that anyone considering selling (or buying) a home will be highly satisfied with both the level of service, responsiveness, and results that come from a team that cares not just about the outcome, but also takes extreme pride in their customer experience and satisfaction.

Friends and family have commented how quickly I sold our home. After meeting with Liz and her terrific team, I was confident that my home would sell despite the ongoing rise in interest rates and a rainy winter. Liz confirmed that there was still a demand for homes in my neighborhood, and outlined what I would need to do to get the home sale-ready. Fortunately, we were in sync about the list price and what the presale costs for repairs and updates would be . We were “show-ready” three weeks after our first conversation. One weekend of open houses resulted in over 12 very good offers. What Liz and her team bring to the table: experience and a strategic plan, market knowledge, vast network, great resources, and a team that is always available and always confident. I strongly recommend the Venema Homes Real Estate Team.

Liz and her team did an excellent job marketing my property. Having a larger team helped with more buyer exposure. It sold relatively fast at an uncertain market. Thank you!

Liz and team did a wonderful job in helping close the deal. Reason we chose Venema Homes was mainly because we were looking in trivalley and they have been working in trivalley for years and knows a lot about Pleasanton and surrounding areas. While we were not the first time home buyers, they still answered all the questions we had and kept us updated. To end, I just want to say, it’s a crazy market and it’s better to work with someone who knows about the area in and out. Glad we worked with Venema team.

It was a pleasant experience working with Lisa Desmond (Lisa) of Venema Homes Real Estate for home buying. Lisa is always positive and has gone the extra mile to get things moved fast to close. A BIG THANKS also to Liz of Venema.

Lisa and Team are great people to work with. She was thorough and helped us get the right home. Highly recommended!

Liz helped us sell our house in Fremont and buy a great house in Pleasanton. The projects weren’t without drama and hand wringing but Liz and her team did a great job navigating all the details and closing the sales. We had a great time with her whole team!

Highly recommended Liz's team. they were very fast, helpful and professional. Without their help I won't sell my house within a month. Mindy

The team at Venema Homes did an excellent job marketing, prepping, and selling our home. Today's home market requires a professional organization who knows the marketplace and can guide you through the potential pitfalls of pricing and selling. They need to also be able to react quickly to the changes happening. The Venema team did all of these and got us a great offer in about 3 weeks.

Liz and her team helped us sell our place in a difficult market with NO issues! I would recommend her business to anyone in the Pleasanton or Dublin.

We’d like to thank the team at Venema Homes for assisting us in selling our home, of over 30 years, here in Pleasanton. It wasn’t a hard decision to choose Venema Homes to handle our real estate transaction because we have known Liz since we moved to this city and Alexis since she was born here. Even with other truly qualified local realtor friends, it was a done deal to work with Venema Homes, and there were no surprises. The sale of our home and the prep work that went into getting it ready for the market (thanks Steve & Vista Construction) went above and beyond. Our home sold for hundreds of thousands more than our initial asking price. That is no surprise in Pleasanton these days. But I’ve had many people ask if the home wasn’t priced low to encourage such as result. That didn’t happen . Liz and team came to us just before we went to market and helped us determine, what we thought a true and fair market price might be, the asking price, a number we would have been more than happy to receive and we went with that. But it was the work behind the scenes by the Venema Team that made all the difference. We can’t say enough how thrilled we were by all aspects of this real estate transaction but just one more time…Thank You! Jerry & Josine Pentin

We just closed on our purchase on a beautiful home in Pleasanton, and we couldn’t have done it so smoothly without the help of Alexis and her team. She was great, and really supported us throughout the entire process. Highly recommend the Venema team!

The Venema Homes team was fantastic! They came highly recommended by a good friend, and with good reason. My husband and I were buying our first home, our budget probably was modest compared to the homes I’ve seen the team help buy and sell, but that didn’t matter. Alexis was a great help. She showed us multiple properties and when we found one we loved, she sent an offer letter that our loan officer called wonderfully aggressive. She got us our home for barely over asking. This is a group that knows what they are doing. I also watched the Venema team sell my parents’ house. My parents received offers over asking. If you are looking to buy or sell, seriously consider using the Venema team. I was terrified of the prospect of buying a house, but Alexis and the rest of the team turned what could have been a nightmare into an enjoyable and exciting experience. Five stars.

Team has been very professional and responsive through out our buying process. Could not have asked for more. Sabrina was very helpful with answering our questions and guide us through. Thanks Sabrina and Lisa.

Lisa was the listing agent for a home in Pleasanton that I helped my clients purchase. There was a multiple counter offer situation and Lisa handled it with grace and professionalism. I can tell she goes above and beyond for her clients. She is a pleasure to work with and I look forward to working with her again in the future!

We were referred to Lisa and her team as my parents used them for when they sold their home. Immediately, Lisa was amazing at keeping us up-to-date with the market that was within our budget. She always had our best interest in mind and we never felt pressured. We appreciated how flexible she was with our schedule. We are grateful to Lisa and her team! Using Venema Homes makes what is already a stressful process that much easier. 10/10!

We're very fortunate to have Alexis and her entire team help us find our new home in Pleasanton. The team made our entire buying experience so seamless. They're always on top of every situation and kept us in the loop. Alexis and team did such a wonderful job ! They're the best!

What can we say!! Lisa and Liz were an absolute pleasure to work with. Having not sold a home in many years we wanted to work with someone who knew our neighborhood. They both patiently walked us through the entire process. They were with us every step of the way, from preparing professional marketing materials, to hosting the open house showings to sitting with us and guiding us as we reviewed the “13” offers for our home. The entire process and the final result exceeded our expectations in every way. We’ve shared with many of our friends how positive our experience was and we’d highly recommend the entire Venema Team if you’re selling or buying a home. Bill and Diane Linse / Vintage Hills

I want to thank Liz Venema and her entire team for making the sale of our home smooth and painless, not to say there weren’t some tears selling a place we have lived in for 22 years, but this team arranged repairs, staging, and cleaning and were always available when questions arose. When faced with major transitions like selling a home and moving, it is a blessing to have agents and a contractor, Steve Venema, who know that this process is more than a transaction; it’s a process of letting go and preparing a home for the next buyers. Having a smart, professional, and compassionate team made all the difference and it was truly stress-free for us because they work so hard behind the scenes making the process of selling appear effortless. Plus, her team scored us a great price, over the asking, along with free rent back giving us time for our next steps. I highly recommend Venema Homes for your next sale or purchase.

I was referred to Liz Venema by a trusted family friend. I listed with her after interviewing MULTIPLE real estate agents. Her energy, enthusiasm, knowledge, and homework regarding my property (not knowing if she would get the listing) was remarkable. Her attention to detail in all ways (documents etc.) and me was more than I could have hoped . We often spoke multiple times a day. I recommend her highly. I began living in Pleasanton in1953 as a toddler. Although I no longer live there; I love my memories and was so happy Liz appreciates the history of our town. AND she sold our home !!!

We recently sold our home of 20 years and selected Venema Homes. Both Liz and Alexis were easy to work with and had a great understanding of the market. One of the key benefits of working with Venema Homes is that they have a complete team that actively supports every step of the process from preparation to close. They outlined a plan which we followed closely, trusting their judgement. The team was on top of every element and when challenges arose, they were resolved quickly and painlessly. The result was great – 4 offers over asking price in 4 days and closure within a month. We had a great experience and would highly recommend Venema Homes. John and Diane, Pleasanton/Ruby Hill, Sellers

so I think Liz is the most professional and powerful regional realtor in my area after 2 years of research for houses and meeting many realtor before I purchase my house in pleasanton in 2019. She really fits all my requirement to be fast and determined to success, not to mention her experience and abundant resources in everything you need. I would definitely recommend her to you if you are determined to your deal. So far we are 2/2 with no miss. You know how powerful she is now. ; )

Alexi and Liz are simply fantastic! We are so lucky to meet Alexi at a home in Ruby Hills which lead us finding a dream home in our preferred neighborhood in Pleasanton. Alexi and Liz represented us in buying and selling our homes! They are very thorough in the process, very professional, hard working, very friendly and a lovely team! We will definitely rate them 5+ stars and refer them to our friends for any real estate needs.. Thanks a lot Liz. Alexi & Venema Homes team... You guys rock... Best, Shanthi and Murali Pleasanton CA

We had the pleasure of working with Liz in selling our home. It was a great experience . Liz was professional and caring. She explained the process well and made sure that we were in the loop from the beginning to the end. We needed some repairs and. upgrades prior to selling. Her husband Steve who owns his own construction company helped us with this and it was a seamless process. We are very satisfied with the her agency's service and do not have any hesitation in referring her to others. Thanks Liz to you and each and every member of your team Uday and Shyamali.

Our family has lived in Pleasanton for over 20 years and decided to sell our beautiful home. Even though I am a real estate broker myself and in the homebuilding business, I knew I needed a professional team of real estate agents to handle the sales process. Our family has known Liz and Lexi Venema personally for many years and I have always respected Liz as a top agent in the Pleasanton market. It has been exciting to watch Lexi advance in this profession and team up with her mom. The two of them were a great team supporting all aspects of the sales process including, pricing, staging, marketing and photography and ultimately finding us the perfect buyer. The process was almost flawless. I recommend the Venema team to anyone considering selling their home.

Everything you want from the real-estate agents: always there for you, but not too overwhelming: just the right amount of personal service. From the offer to the close, every question answered in a timely and professional manner. And nice people, too! Thank you, Michelle and the rest of the team!

Our challenge was that we were selling and buying a house at the same time. Venema Homes team was very knowledgable, efficient and helpful getting our house ready to sell and staged in a timely manner. They work with a professional network of businesses to help get the job done. Even after we were in our new home and the sale was complete, there was an unforeseen issue they continued to assist us with until resolved. My husband and I would highly recommend them !

We were so lucky to meet Alexis the first time we came to visit Pleasanton. From the get-go, we appreciated her extensive knowledge of the various neighborhoods as well as her willingness to help us understand the home buying process. Alexis, Liz, Amanda, Kim and the rest of the team at Venema Homes truly went above and beyond to ensure we had a smooth and efficient experience. We moved into our new house about a week ago and couldn't be happier. We wholeheartedly recommend the Venema Homes team!

Liz helped us sell our Pleasanton house a couple years ago. She and her team were friendly and professional. They gave us good advices and our house was sold quickly and above what we asked for. We are very happy with her service and will definitely choose them as our agent again.

My husband and I really lucked into being represented by Liz Venema and her team when we sold our Pleasanton home. Although initially introduced to her by a prospective buyer who did not end up buying, Liz quickly showed that she was there for US - to get us the best offer possible, to advise and guide us through the requirements and risks that come with selling a home (even in the time of Covid), and even to virtually "hold our hands" when the escrow clock seemed to be ticking so slowly! In the end we were able to get more than $150k over the asking price - a BIG thank you to Liz and the team that supports her. We couldn't recommend any real estate team more highly than the VENEMA HOMES REAL ESTATE TEAM!!

THREE THUMBS UP for Liz Venema and her wonderful team! We interviewed several agents before choosing Liz and are so glad we did. Our gut feel was that in addition to her experience, track record of successes, and knowledge of our Ruby Hill neighborhood, that she had the energy level and drive to sell our home quickly and at the right price. Also, she truly believed we could get the top dollar for our home which it deserved. After choosing Liz as our quarterback, she didn't hesitate to march her team down the field quickly and to score an exciting touchdown at the end. If we had to do it over again, we'd go with Liz and her team every time. We couldn't be happier with our decision to select Venema Homes! / Rob Stevenson and Mary Gottenborg

Liz and her real estate team are the best. They're professional, savvy, and easy to work with. In a time where you are making one of the biggest decisions in life, they are constantly reassuring and stay positive about your choices and the real estate market. My husband and I strongly endorse and recommend you choose them to assist in any real estate transaction you are going through.

Liz and her team are the best!!. They helped sell my home for top dollar and very quickly. From the first conversation to closing, highly professional and very helpful. I highly recommend the team.

If you are on the search for a real estate agent to represent you, look no further. My husband and I knew of Liz Venemas outstanding record and reputation and didn’t hesitate to sign with her and her incredible team. Everything we needed to do and know she had the answer for. We followed along with her instructions and our home of 40 years sold in a heart beat. You can have complete confidence in her and her team. She knows the market and her job!

Liz and her team did a good job in helping us find a dream home. It was not an easy process and we faced some competitive buyers. With her and her team's service and dedication, we did it! thank you.

Excellent Real estate agency very knowledgeable works very hard

My sister and I found Liz during a difficult time in my sister’s life. She found her world turned upside down over night. Long story short, Liz and her team made selling her home as seamless as possible. Thanks Liz, our family really appreciate your hard work.

We met Lisa Desmond of Venema Homes sometime in 2019 as we were doing open homes and evaluating the Livermore area for a future move. It was late 2020 before we were ready to purchase our next home, and Lisa made such an impression on us that we called her to consider being our buyer agent. We spoke with several others also, but we were most comfortable and confident with Lisa. After several months of shopping, Lisa found us a home that fit our needs and budget, and the best part was she absolutely was looking our for our interests and protection each step of the way. The paperwork and process of shopping, evaluating, negotiating, and closing a deal on a home can be daunting. We greatly appreciate Lisa and her team's efforts to make the process smooth and successful!

Liz and her team are absolutely amazing, the best in Pleasanton. They worked so closely and patiently with my family. With Liz we had no problem finding our dream home. She showed us countless properties, due to her friendly and genuine personalities we felt we could count on her honest advice. She was never pushy in our decision making process or ever hesitated in answering any of our questions big or small. Even after the closing she continued to help us find movers and helped with our home warranty issues. Highly recommend the entire team for a truly caring and professional experience.
