I had a wonderful experience consulting with Kathleen Sims for a Section 8 question. She quickly understood my situation and gave me clear, straightforward options — no confusion, no runaround. What really sets Kathleen apart is her extensive background leading Section 8 programs, which means she genuinely understands both the landlord and tenant side — and that perspective made all the difference. She was friendly, professional, and even accommodated my call after a Calendly scheduling glitch. Highly recommend her to anyone navigating Section 8!

Compassion, Expertise, and Relief During a Difficult Time
"I recently had the good fortune of working with Kathleen Sims during a very difficult time in my life. After the passing of my brother Dale, I came from Chicago to California to manage his estate, which included a condominium in Oakland and two properties in Palm Springs. I was completely unfamiliar with California’s real estate regulations and overwhelmed by the process.
The condominium in Oakland was especially challenging. It was a rental property, and my brother left no tenant information beyond a name. Even the estate attorney’s letter to the tenant went unanswered. Kathleen personally visited the condo to try to make contact, and later tracked down a lead from an address we found on a rent check. Thanks to her persistence, we finally established communication with the tenant.
Kathleen guided me through Oakland’s complex landlord-tenant rules and served the appropriate notices. When the tenant’s parents called to explain their daughter’s situation, Kathleen handled the matter with compassion and skill. With my approval, she negotiated favorable terms that avoided an expensive legal battle while allowing the tenant to remain secure in the condo. It was a solution that worked for everyone.
Throughout the process, Kathleen remained calm, professional, and extraordinarily knowledgeable. Her 40 years of experience and her expertise as a Seniors Real Estate Specialist were evident every step of the way. On top of resolving the Oakland sale, she also leveraged her RE/MAX network to connect me with an excellent realtor to handle the Palm Springs properties.
Losing my brother was painful enough; the thought of managing multiple properties and complicated personalities at the same time felt overwhelming. Kathleen lifted a tremendous burden from my shoulders. She was the right person for this delicate task, and I am deeply grateful for her guidance, patience, and care.
Thank you, Kathleen—you are truly wonderful to work with."

I got my real estate license because I was tired of the lack of knowledge of agents I had to deal with for my HOA.  Kathleen’s experience and relaxed assurance is like a breath of fresh air.  She is not pushy, knows her business inside and out, and will be honest with when advising.

"We are fortunate that our parents established a living trust which laid the groundwork for passing on their properties with minimal confusion. Kathleen was instrumental in guiding us through the next steps, making what could have been a daunting process much more manageable. Her clear guidance and actionable steps lifted a huge burden from my shoulders. I highly recommend Kathleen for any real estate consultations. Thank you, Kathleen, for your invaluable assistance."

Kathleen was EXCEPTIONAL with selling my house and the initial purchase years ago. She was and is EXTREMELY attentive and easy to contact and speak with.
She kept me updated at every step, provided me with options i.e plan B if plan A didn't pan out.
Kathleen was  very honest,  and informative when things needed to be done to help boost the house in preparation for the market sale . She stayed patient and kept pushing. She was a key part in my house selling and getting everything completed in a timely manner .
She was extremely thorough with her marketing plan and spot on with pricing. She made sure potential buyers were well qualified and made the escrow process as smooth as possible
Her office assistants are top notch as well. When Kathleen said something was going to be emailed to me to review or to sign, I checked my email and it was there waiting.
I can say with the utmost confidence that I could not have accomplished this without everything Kathleen did for me. I feel lucky to have had her for the purchase /sale of my first home!
I offer Kathleen my highest review/recommendation
Thank you so much

Kathleen was very generous with her time and expertise.  Her experiences in all facets of the housing market and knowledge of the East Bay really made a difference in my decision to move forward.   Great service oriented agent.

Firstly, my family would love to thank Sinclair for his amazing guidance in helping us to acquire our home! His expertise along with his patience made the home searching and buying way more pleasant than I have heard others describe in their own home buying ventures. His shared knowledge increased my own acumen in the home buying experience. Especially, along the lines of knowing what to look for in Disclosures. Many times it felt like he was a member of our family looking for the right fit alongside us! I highly recommend Mr. Sinclair Walker to anyone pursuing the home buying venture! You will feel heard, taken care of and never rushed to make a decision you may regret later. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Sinclair!

I had the pleasure of working with Gevon Taylor. He assisted in helping me find my new home. From the start Gevon was helpful, communicative, and proactive in helping me during the search, offer, and escrow process. He made the process easy!
