What My Clients Say

Let me sing the praises of Jason Sewald and Ovation Homes. I made the decision to sell my Menlo Park home in November, 2019. Since I live in Northern California, it was important to me to have an agent with the expertise to solicit bids, hire contractors, and supervise their work while preparing my home for sale. I was impressed by Jason’s attention to details. Jason kept me updated on the process and in...

What My Clients Say

Maya and Jason Sewald were the agents for the sale of my house in Woodside. They did a wonderful job. I owned the house for about 12 years. It was not in the best condition. Maya and Jason very effectively acted to get the house ready for sale. I am sure that I got a fair price. I certainly got more than I would have gotten if I sold the house “As-Is”. At a personal level Maya was just great, she held m...

What My Clients Say

Maya, you represented us in 1997 when we bought the house in Menlo Park. You were so helpful and professional throughout that process that we knew we’d be in touch with you immediately when we moved on from that home. Thanks for staying in touch; twenty years later, you were the first call we made when we decided it was time to go! Working with you AND Jason, who we have also gotten to know in recent yea...

— Renee R. & Jim F.

What My Clients Say

We are repeat clients, because we know we can rely on Maya and Jason! They have always been very thorough and followed up on every step of the process, and expedited matters when time is of the essence. In addition, we’ve encountered several “unusual” curves and unpleasant surprises from the other parties, but Maya and Jason always kept us calm and worked through the problems with us. We couldn’t be more...

What My Clients Say

My wife and I were selling a home in May 2018. We chose Maya and Jason as our Realtors® to sell the property. With their years of knowledge in the real estate business, their ideas and contacts, we were able to stage the home and show the property at its best. Working with Maya and Jason was a pleasure! Because of their easy and professional manner we developed a great friendship. The property sold quick...

What My Clients Say

While it was a roller coaster rider at times, Jason and Maya’s professional guidance, persistence, and positive attitude kept us on track! We’re delighted with our new home and expect to be happy here for many years. Buy when the time comes, you’ll be hearing from us again! Meanwhile, we will gladly recommend you to friends.

What My Clients Say

When it came to buying a new home in the City, a process that seemed daunting in such a competitive market, Maya and Jason were invaluable. First of all, they listen. They understood exactly what I was looking for and streamlined the process, showing me only the properties that really met my criteria. There was no waste of time. They found me just the right house in the right location, in record time. Du...

What My Clients Say

I was first introduced to Maya and Jason through my brother who worked with them about 8 years ago. Based on his great reference, we worked with them to sell my aunt’s home in Menlo Park. Maya stated clearly that they were a ‘full service’ Realtor® and they really meant it!!! Living in Los Angeles, it would have been very difficult for me to organize all the cleaning and moving that was needed to get the...

What My Clients Say

Thank you for your heroic efforts and patience in selling Trinity. Although it was a “hard sell”- it will, I assure you make my life easier- going forward. I sincerely doubt I could have accomplished this without you.

— Liza

What My Clients Say

If you are looking for a team who knows the market and will truly have your best interest at heart, we highly recommend Maya and Jason. Our house in Los Altos Hills sold, and we were worried because we hadn’t found our next home yet. We inquired about a property for lease so we would have somewhere to go and met Maya in the process. The property had just been rented, but in a matter of days, Maya showed ...

— Cheryl S.

What My Clients Say

Maya and Jason sold our home for us. Our experience with them was excellent! They knew our neighborhood and set a good price for the home. They positioned and advertised it well. It sold quickly and everything went smoothly, and we were very pleased with the results. (We received 5 offers, all over the asking price.) They were extremely helpful in getting the house ready for sale. They knew who to call t...

— Jane L. & Lee S.

What My Clients Say

Maya and Jason have represented us extraordinarily well when we purchased and sold real estate in Menlo Park. They are experts on the existing market on the Peninsula and are very knowledgeable, efficient, supportive and professional in navigating issues that rise in a very complicated market. We recommend them without reservation to anyone who wishes to purchase or sell Bay Area real estate.

— Mack & Diane

What My Clients Say

In tough and uncertain times with the onset of Covid-19 and the ensuing shutdown, we could not have had a better team batting for us. Their steady work and positive attitude made everything stress free. From the moment Maya and Jason took on a project they saw it through from conception to completion. It is never merely a job for them. It is a passion. They are involved in every aspect of the preparation...

— A & R

What My Clients Say

As a buyer and seller of many homes over the years, my experiences with Realtors® have generally been positive. It was not until working with Maya and Jason at Ovation Real Estate that I realized how high they set the bar for excellence as real estate agents. Purchasing or selling a home is such a personal and emotional endeavor, and their sincere motivation to make the seller/buyer feel comfortable, wel...
