What My Clients Say

My family and I are so thankful we found Gina and her team! My wife and I were new home buyers and hesitant about purchasing our first home, however Gina was there every step of the way offering guidance, wisdom and support through each step of the way. What’s better is that I’ve worked with Gina as both a buyer and a seller and both experiences were seamless and I honestly felt like I was supposed to be...

My husband and I have used Gina and Shawn for the sell and purchase of several homes and it never seizes to amaze me how they always deliver.

We recently moved across town by purchasing a new home and selling our prior home, and the process could not have gone more smoothly thanks to Gina Piper and her team.

Gina Piper and Elation Real Estate are far and away the real estate professional and firm to use when making a home purchase.

So grateful for all of Gina’s help in the sale of my home and purchase of my new home! She worked at the speed of light to get my house listed and the entire process went so smoothly.

— Melissa H.

What My Clients Say

We started working with Gina and Shawn after having lost multiple bids on houses in a very competitive market. They were able to get us into a great house then and we were lucky enough to be able to work with them on a subsequent home sale and purchase. I wouldn’t trust anyone else to this very challenging process! True professionals! Can’t recommend them highly enough.

— Albert & Denise M.

— Robert & Tami H.

What My Clients Say

The idea of selling my home after 18+ years seemed daunting. It was my sanctuary! The safe place where I raised my children, hosted family celebrations, fun parties, holidays, a wedding and became a grandmother. It was going to be so difficult to leave, but it was well past time to downsize and I had certainly delayed the process far too long. When I finally asked Gina for help, it was the first step in ...

Gina was amazing to work with. She made everything so efficient with her expertise in home sales including knowing the current market and instincts on what to do to get our house ready for listing.

Her stagers, photographer and videographer stunningly showcased our home...

What My Clients Say

We’ve had the distinct pleasure of working with Gina for almost twenty years now. She has helped us sell three homes and buy two. In our experience, Gina is simply the BEST REALTOR® in the Tri-Valley. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell a home in Pleasanton or throughout the Tri-Valley. She recently represented us in selling our Pleasanton home and as always did an amazing job for us.

— Steve & Linnea C.

What My Clients Say

I’ve come to realize that I have ridiculous expectations of good service in general, and particularly in regards to realtors®. Gina and Shawn exceeded all my expectations when we sold our house in Pleasanton. They provided a great analysis of the market with all the data to satisfy two accountants, and their analysis was spot on. They answered all of our questions and truly went above and beyond to meet ...
