We had a fantastic experience selling our home thanks to Joe Schembri. Joe is highly experienced and has a real talent for identifying serious buyers and bringing in strong offers. Communication was excellent from start to finish — he always closes the loop, addresses every question thoroughly. He was incredibly dedicated and responsive throughout the entire process, and his hard work paid off: we closed a full week ahead of schedule. If you’re looking for an agent who truly goes above and beyond, I can’t recommend Joe highly enough. We’d work with him again in a heartbeat.

Joe is truly the leader in the real estate market. He and his team, from marketing, to renovations, to listing our home and finally selling it in 1 day, was truly a stress free experience. Joe is a kind person who really listens and provides solid advice and suggestions for what will work best for selling our home. He was hands on with the construction crew during renovations and transformed our family home into a beautifully updated home that will provide years of joy to the next family. If you want an agent who feels like family, keeps you in the loop (via telephone, text, and email) with accurate updates, and shows that he is #1 in his trade, then I would whole heartedly recommend Joe to you. I already did to a family friend ready to sell their Fremont home too! Thanks Joe and your entire team!

Joe Schembri was absolutely phenomenal from our first phone call to arrange an interview with him all the way to today, even months after the sale of our ranch home. We interviewed a few realtors and Joe stood out from all the rest. We are so glad we chose him because he was able to get us an all cash offer for full asking price in a relatively short time -and during a “lull” in the market- for a very unique 19 acre ranch property in Sunol/East Bay Area. His calm demeanor and easygoing style fit with our personality and non-aggressive sales approach. We were hoping for a certain type of buyer and from a wide range of potential buyers, Joe found the perfect family to take over our beloved ranch. He and his amazing team worked closely with us every step of the way, from obtaining Market comparisons (not easy with our unique property and price range), advising on pricing and marketing approach, giving advice on staging and upgrades to prepare for showing, professional photography with drone shots, placing for sale sign with “Do Not Disturb Occupants”, filtering out buyers without proof of funds, professional color digital and printed flyer of the property, reaching out to potential buyers across a wide range of mediums, showing up early to EVERY buyer walk through and inspections, immediate response to our texts, phone calls and e-mails, Joe was personally present to walk us through each initial and signature of the Real Estate sale agreement/contract paperwork, the list goes on! Turns out Joe and his team have experience selling all types of property from small residential to commercial and large acreage estates in every price range, and we cannot recommend him enough for whatever you may be selling. Joe was there for us every step of the way and despite his calm demeanor he is tough and takes no BS! We were so thrilled to have him represent us and make the sale of our house as seamless as possible. Thank you Joe from the bottom of our hearts, and we will continue to have Joe and his team as our Realtor in the future.

Joe and Star did an excellent job managing the sale of my home. They moved quickly to coordinate several repairs and get the property ready for market, which made a big difference. There were also a few title-related complications along the way, and they handled those calmly while keeping communication clear and responsive throughout the process. I’m grateful for their help in getting the sale completed smoothly.

Joe Schembri from Coldwell Banker is an excellent realtor. I’ve known him from church for thirty years and found him a good man, an honest man. I selected him because I knew he could be a person I could trust from day 1. You need a real expert to do the job correctly and that is what Joe is, an expert realtor. He has 30 years realtor experience. In 2025, he sold 70 homes. He sells most of his homes in Fremont. He 100% knows the Fremont market. He sold a home on my street, six months earlier so he knew the market price for my house. That is the most important element, knowing what the market price is for a property. It can be an ever changing number and you have to base it on what is happening today. How many homes are on the market in the neighborhood today, are mortgage rates up or down, are U.S. economics building confidence to buy or scaring off home buyers. Joe thinks through these items and really comes up with the best, accurate market pricing. He looks at the house and determines if it is up to par with a buyer walk though. Does the home look old? Are there improvements required for buyers to consider the home? Joe makes the best suggestions to make the house marketable. He has a team of contractors/painters to work on the house. He has no kick back from selecting this team to do the work. Their prices are very competitive and some of the vendors will wait for payment until the home sells. The contractors went to work immediately and I was able to get my house on the market within a month. Joe helps with home inspections and roofing inspections requested by the buyer. Again, there were repairs that were needed to be made from the inspections that were unknown to me. His team made the home inspection repairs and a local roofing company made roof repairs, as needed. Joe put the “coming soon” sign early on my house which generated a ton of interest weeks prior to the real first open house. Joe’s team staged the house with beautiful furniture and artwork. The house looked the best it ever did in the 62 years we owned it. An offer was made after the first open house weekend and it was above the market price we had on the house. Under Joe’s supervision everything about this home sale was easy, understandable and painless to me, the seller. I trusted Joe 100% and he came through 100%. I would definitely select Joe again to be my realtor.
