Testimonials

"When it came time to list our mother's nice, but older home in the Rancho Rinconada area of Cupertino, there was no question or hesitation but to ask Anson Ip of Compass Realty to handle the sale. We are long time residents and homeowners in this area of Cupertino ourselves, thus we were well aware that Anson was one of the leading residential real estate agents in our area. He is well- connected with access to many types of potential buyers and sellers, thus he spread the word of the upcoming listing before it even went on the market. Within a couple of days we had 4 offers and readily accepted a reasonable offer from a young family. It was an all-cash offer, and the property closed seamlessly within 10 days. Anson is a true real estate professional, responsive and attentive at all times during this complex process, and he is keenly aware of market conditions and movements. He is ultimately concerned for all parties’ needs and desires. We highly recommend contacting Anson Ip if you are a potential buyer or seller for a home in this area of Cupertino."

"Anson was able to sell our house our house way above asking price. At first, we wanted to sell off the market, as we already had four potential buyers interested in the house and didn't want to go through the hassle of an open house. Anson had our best interests in mind, and he assured us that he would be able to get buyers interested in the house who were willing to pay much more than we initially listed. We're glad that we listened to Anson's advice. Buyers were offering us $300,000 above what we were expecting, and Anson was even able to negotiate for an additional $100,000! We made an extra half-million dollars thanks to our amazing agent!"

"I’m so glad that I had Anson as my agent to sell my house in a rush. I was on an extremely tight schedule, and it was my last day before I had to take off for Europe. Anson advised me to sell my house as-is, off the market for a quick and profitable return. After just a single week off- market, I accepted an offer for almost $3 million with two months of rent back. That’s $500,000 above what I asked! I’m incredibly thankful that I had Anson to take care of everything for me while I was out of the country. Anson’s always looking out for what’s best for his client, and I would recommend him to anyone who is buying or selling a house."

"My husband and I knew we would be remodeling our home, as such Anson’s architectural background was extremely helpful. During the walk-through of potential homes we would discuss remodeling possibilities and estimated costs. Anson would also inform us of when it would be too much to remodel and make a house the home we were looking for... We highly recommend Anson and have already discussed his work with friends who are looking to buy a home in the next year or two."
