"So much can be said about Sonja! It's rare you find a gem of a person in your day to day life. She brings a genuine caring attitude towards her clients, she a joy to be around, and extremely friendly and professional. As a first time home-buyer she made the process as seemless as possible, and was able to answer all of our questions. What I love most about her is her caring nature and honestly. She did not just sell you something to you that you were not 100% sure on. Thank you for everything Sonja!"

"She walked us through every step. She was able to give us insight on the houses and neighborhoods. Very patient and helpful with showing us the houses and finding good options"

  -Michael Barnes, Client

"I met Sonja in April 2021 when we started looking for a house to buy. She worked with us tirelessly to find the perfect home within our budget and area of interest. She would be transparent throughout the whole process. Believe me when I say she went above and beyond to make sure we got the house we purchased. In these competitive market conditions she managed to help us buy a home in the Bay Area in July 2021. A couple months later we are going to be moving into our very first home. Thanks to Sonja we were successful and I am very happy to have worked with her."

  -Alondra Varela, Client

"As a first time homebuyer, looking for a home, specially during COVID-19, was a daunting task. However, Sonja made this challenging process extremely easy and smooth. She kept our best interests at heart, prioritized our requirements, and always made it a point to make sure we felt comfortable and happy with the available options. She never shied away from telling us what could be a money-pit with a particular house, even if it was the expensive/nice looking one. I consider Sonja more of a close friend, than an agent. She always prioritizes building relationships and I would recommend her in a heart beat. Thank you for everything you did for us, Sonja!"

"Thanks to the tireless work and graceful patience of Sonja, my family and I are able to end the year in our dream home. As first time, first-generation homebuyers, Sonja, not only provided professional guidance and access, but comfort, compassion, and creativity. She has truly become an integral part of our family story. We started our home search process with no clear idea of what our budget was, what specific location we wanted to live in, what was our must-haves, and what we were willing to compromise on. We took all of that into a historically competitive market. Nonetheless, Sonja helped us navigate the market, gain clarity around what we were looking for, and ultimately construct a winning bid. We couldn't thank or recommend her enough!"

"Sonja went above and beyond to assist me in my home buying process. I was stuck in quarantine and trying to coordinate a cross-country move. Sonja took me on numerous virtual house tours. She ventured all over the Bay Area to ensure I could see properties as close to in-person as possible. During the purchasing process, she was my person on the ground handling any issues that arose that required assistance from inspections to closing. Huge help and asset for the whole process!"

""Hi Sonja, I hope you're doing well! I was just thinking of you and wanted to send you warm thoughts. We had Happy Hour with some of our neighbors and they had horror stories about buying their homes w/o a realtor. So blessed to have you by our side. You made the process soo smooth!! Wishing you a happy August!""

  -Ashley Shaw, Client

"We had a wonderful experience working with Sonja. She was in tune with our top priorities and needs. She also gave valuable input on different properties and pointed out any issues that she noticed. She was very patient with us through out the whole home buying process and never pressured us to do anything we weren't comfortable with. I would highly recommend her as a buyers agent."

"Finding the right house in the Bay Area is not easy, but without Sonja, it would have been impossible. I was referred to Sonja by my mother after some incompatibility with other agents. Right off the bat, there was a positive change in my viewings; they became less about the “vibe” of the home and more about the structural quality, longevity, and investment. We would observe the workmanship and often crawl under homes together. Often times ,she would be the one that would tell me to hold off on putting in an offer, which tells me that she’s in this for much more then an easy sale. It is not easy to be an informed buyer in an ultra-competitive market, but Sonja encouraged me to view things objectively and without emotion, and most importantly to slow down (something I needed to hear). After some time searching I found a home that is both within my budget and has everything I asked for, with very little compromise. I know that she cares greatly about her clients friends, and I know "

  -Max Craig, Client

"Sonja is a gem! She is a wonderful listener who really heard what we were looking for from the start. She provided great resources and shared her wealth of knowledge and experience. With her keen eye and big heart, she guided us on our first time home purchase and always encouraged us to make the best decisions for us. We bought a beautiful home which we love. We are so grateful to Sonja and hope you get to embark on this journey with her!" "

  -Malena, Client

"Sonja is fantastic. She put my needs first, was thorough and patient so I got exactly what I wanted at a price I could afford. She is client oriented and did all the legwork making this one of the best real estate transactions I have ever participated I. 10 stars!!!!"

  -Tracy Craig, Client

"Sonja was amazing from the minute we met. She always had our best interests from the beginning. She was knowledgeable and pointed things out that I didnt even think of. She also made sure our transactions were handled quickly and efficiently. She was always ready to go look at houses even when I asked to go at the last minute. I appreciated all of the time she spent with my family and I. She never pressured us and made sure that I was comfortable the whole way through. I trust her with everything and recommend that you work with her if you want a more personable experience."

  -Chrissy Sa, Client

"Sonja is very friendly and I would recommend future home buyers to work with her! Sonja looked out for my best interest and I appreciate that so much. 100/100."

  -Rayssa Espada, Client

"I recommend working with Sonja Hammond Bruno. She makes first home buying experiences easy. She is there answers to any questions through out the process and helped us find a beautiful home in a neighborhood that we love. Even though conditions were difficult with social distancing, she set up a private showing when this house came on the market. We'll be telling all our friends and family to work with her."
