I live in Los Angeles where I have had three home selling and buying experiences. But my mother lived in Palo Alto and we needed an experienced Bay Area agent to assist us in selling her property when she passed away. In all my life I have never met or worked with a better agent than Dan Ziony. Saying he went above and beyond is an understatement. He was hands-on from the very minute we took over her house, helping me with every detail. There was so much to do to get the house ready for sale, and he was extremely sensitive to the emotional nature of this process for me. The people he recommended for inspections, repairs, and staging were top-notc...

We have worked with Dan since 2007 and he is professional and knowledgeable. He has worked as both buyer and seller for our family. It is clear that Dan is interested in his clients' best interests and will go the extra mile to make your experience pleasant. He found our dream home in Atherton and fought for our family to get the home that we wanted within our price range. I can never thank him enough for all of the time, energy, and extra effort that he put forth for our family and I highly recommend him to anyone who is buying or selling their home.

I've worked twice with Dan, both as a buyer and a seller. He's extremely responsive and knowledgeable about the Palo Alto/Menlo Park/Portola Valley area, and I felt like he really tapped into what we were looking for when we were searching for a home. When buying, he was a quality advisor without being pushy and worked hard to get our house looking great prior to listing. In the end, we had six offers and sold 10% over listing price, so the proof is in the pudding.

We interviewed many agents before we met Dan. He was professional, punctual, and arranged everything for us (staging, inspections, etc). He was at the Open House and handled everything with a high level of professionalism and competence. He made the emotional process of selling our home very easy and even helped us to accept an offer which was way over asking price. We would recommend him in a heartbeat.

The best realtor ever. Aggressive pricing and negotiating strategies. He traded my relatively small transaction (for my marketplace) as he would much larger sale. Was extremely responsive to phone calls and emails.
