Vidya is a sharp, kind, and extremely competent real estate agent with a deep well of knowledge. She is prompt in responding to all queries and considers your needs carefully. She diligently provides the pros and cons of each home and location, ensuring you can make well-informed decisions. Throughout our house-hunting journey, Vidya never pressured us to make offers unless we were absolutely certain about a property, which we found both refreshing and appreciable. With Vidya as your agent, you can rest assured that you'll find a home you love!

Vidya is an exceptional agent. She not only helped us with finding a home but also helped us understand the Bay Area. As we were new to the Bay Area, we had no clue about the different townships, market conditions and also the lenders. Vidya quickly understood our needs and what works best for our family. She not only helped us with the house viewing and suggestions but also with the recommendations on townships. She soon became a trusted advisor. This helped us understand the market dynamics and trends, distances from offices, schools etc. She helped with exploring options in the East Bay to the South Bay. She was extremely patient through the journey as our personal situation and criteria kept on changing. We really appreciated her help in sharing recommendations on lenders, movers... Show More

Vidya gives a personal touch with every client. She is always vigilant in giving her thoughts and assessment. She makes sure that you are educated before you go first see the house. For us she made us sure to even give water treatments and neighborhood information. She is a fun and kind person to hang around with and all her suggestions were well curated and thought upon. From seeing to closure she will help you and guide you all the way through. She deserves every praise one can give because of her sheer hardwork and focus. If you are going with redfin you should go with Vidya. Redfin pls take care of your absolute gem

We met Vidhya at one of her open house in the very initial exploration phase of our first time home buying journey. We found her very understanding about concerns of a first time home buyer as she followed up the same day with relevant information and disclosures of the property for us to get our feet wet in the process. We then followed up with a more detailed meeting where she explained all aspects of home buying including inspections, making offers, contingencies, finances, and deal closing and associated trade offs and risks. That made us feel more confident and empowered to take the next steps. As we started looking for properties more seriously, Vidhya was always prompt to provide her market and disclosers analysis and recommendations the same day. We found her fairly... Show More

Vidya is a gem of a real estate agent but beyond that she is a wonderful human being! Her work ethics, dedication to work, sincerity, commitment to us was reflected in the numerous communications we had daily over the past 4 months be it in person, on call or text messages/emails no matter what time of the day/day of the week. Vidya was extremely patient throughout this time - understanding our needs, what we were looking for, explaining and re-explaining at times - concepts related to real estate that we did not comprehend. She was not hesitant to do the work and put an offer for us that she told us ahead of time was probably gonna be a bit low. But we did not budge because we did not think the house was worth more than it and in the end we lost the bid for that particular house, but... Show More
Vidya went above and beyond to serve our needs and got us the house that we really wanted. I would love to work with Vidya in the future too :)

My wife and I were actively searching for a house for a few months but we were not able to find any good real estate agents with whom we could click. But in March 2023, Redfin finally matched us with Vidya Murthy. After the first phone conversation and then a quick meet up with her, my wife & I already knew that this is the realtor which will get us into our house! And that actually happened a couple of months later! It was an instant connect for us! Vidya explains the whole buying process very well, and she also understands the buyers’ requirements well. We were the first time home buyers, so Vidya explained us every step and went over the steps in detail multiple times too. She was extremely patient with us too. She’s always just a few seconds away (not even minutes!) when it comes to... Show More

Our agent Vidya Murthy made the entire home buying experience smooth from start to finish. Vidya’s knowledge of the home buying process was visible in the manner she responded to our queries. Vidya is thoughtful and we did not feel rushed or pressured to make decisions while working with her.

When I tried to make the first offer, I did a bunch of the research by myself and already had a number in my mind before asking Vidya. Surprisingly Vidya's estimation is exactly the same as mine. That's the reason why I put my full trust on her and we can quickly identify our purchased home. We really appreciate Vidya's help!

We had an amazing experience working with Vidya. As first time home buyers, we were really confused even deciding on buying a house or not and also choosing the right one. Vidya was extremely patient with us in explaining things to us. She never rushed/pressured us for any of the properties she showed us and always made sure that we were completely satisfied and comfortable before placing an offer. She also worked very hard and late nights to get our offers accepted and was also always available to show us any houses we liked and any number of times. All these made our home buying experience much less stressful and we are totally happy with our decision. We highly recommend Vidya.

We highly recommend Vidya! She was very understanding of our needs, accompanied us on numerous house tours, diligently followed up with the seller agents and lenders, provided us with helpful and frank assessments of the homes, put us in touch with lenders and home insurance companies, and stayed up late answering all of our questions. The home buying procedure was easy and simple, all thanks to Vidya!

It was great working with Vidya. As a first time home buyer, we had lot of questions/apprehensions towards home buying but she made us super comfortable and guided us through this process. She was never pushy and made sure that we like the house before getting into the details. If there was an option, I would give her 11/10. Keep up the great work Vidya!

Vidya is the best agent. She spends time on not only understanding needs of customers in terms of size, features, distance to work, budget. Community preferences, timeframe to close but also she is extremely knowledgeable, works with great empathy, great speed, honesty, truthful, and dedication. We never felt like we bought a house as she took the entire responsibility and made it easy for us. Her services helped us in closing without getting into traps of seller agents or other disclosure secrets. She became part of our journey and did it as if it is for her own sister or family member. Even a 10 rating is less for her. She deserves 10++++..... Best regard

Vidya was extremely professional, personable and effective from the beginning to the end of the process. She helped us see our dream come true with listening, understanding and great guidance.
Vidya was amazing through our search for a house and was an invaluable partner. She always had our back, was incredibly patient with all our questions (this was our first time purchasing a house in the US) and helped us land a house we love. She was highly appreciated by the sellers agent as well. Vidya has become a very good friend through this process. I would very strongly recommend her to anyone who is looking to purchase a house

She was accommodating to our requirements, and never tried to rush us or push us towards buying anything. She really understands the real estate scenario of Bay Area and is extremely honest and dedicated to her job.

Vidya is a very kind, extremely competent and fun agent who is keenly attuned to buyer's needs and expectations. She is focussed on getting the buyers the home they want instead of getting them "a" home. She is always on top of things. Let it be finding the latest listings, getting the tours scheduled, getting the docs signed or following up with sellers' agents on getting outstanding items done. Overall, we had a very fruitful, stress-free and fun experience with her. Thank you Vidya for such a pleasant experience and finding us our dream home!!!
