I get it. Whether you're buying or selling real property, it’s a huge financial decision. Real estate transactions are much more than just dollars and cents, and you want someone in your corner when you're faced with such important decisions. And not just anyone, but someone who will act as a trusted confidant and earnest advocate, and someone who always has your best interest at heart.

I pride myself on representing all clients with dedication, honesty, and integrity. It is my mission to ensure that my clients understand each step of the home-buying or home-selling processes so they can make thoughtful and informed decisions. I truly believe that communication is key.

I grew up in San Francisco's Lower Pacific Heights district, just blocks away from Japantown. A UC Davis alum, I moved back to the Bay Area in 2012 after graduating with distinction from the University of the Pacific, McGeorge School of Law. I was a real estate litigation attorney before working with buyers and sellers, making the shift to full-time Realtor in 2015. 

As a proud second-generation real estate broker, I have helped manage my family's real estate holdings–both commercial and residential–throughout the Bay Area. I’m a top producing agent I’m ranked in the top 2% of Realtors in the East Bay. I am positive that I have the patience, knowledge, and experience necessary to represent you, whether you're a first-time homebuyer or a seasoned seller.

I have been happily married since 2009. I’m a wife, mother, dog lover, and proud Alameda resident!

  • I could write you an essay about Erin Chan-Adams, but I'll break it down to 3 easy points:

    INTEGRITY and CARE: We were going to accept a counter offer from the sellers. Erin found another coming soon house she wanted us to drive by and research before we submitted our signatures. She cared more about us finding the perfect home than herself.

    PROACTIVE: Erin found our home by actively reaching out to agents and putting us in a position to win early.

    SUPPORT: What hasn't Erin done for us? I truthfully couldn't say. Erin has exceeded every single expectation and has handled EVERYTHING for us. Even post-sale, Erin continues to help us.

    Simply put, if anyone is not using Erin, they're foolish.

  • We are first time home buyers, and couldn't be happier that we chose to work with Erin.

    During the initial vetting process, we really appreciated how Erin never jumped into any high pressure sales tactics that we had seen with some other agents we chatted with. She asked great questions to try to understand what we were looking for, and was very direct and kind when helping us keep our expectations more realistic.

    Throughout the process we needed a lot of help understanding the unique market here in the bay area. Erin was able to patiently guide us through the process. She was always quick to respond to our requests for information, or any questions we needed clarification for!

    Erin is also a strong negotiator and was able to help us get a price that we were super happy with! We're so happy to have worked with Erin and would highly recommend working with her for your home search process..”

  • In the last three years, Erin has successfully closed three (!) deals for my husband and me. There are countless reasons why we chose Erin over the dozens of agents we have met! After each closing, we felt like Erin went above and beyond for us and felt so lucky to have her on our side. Erin does her homework and really considers all aspects of the real estate transaction– and then always keeps us informed of all of our options. She was so on the ball that I didn't even realize how good we had it until I heard what my coworkers and friends were saying about their home buying/selling experiences.

    There was never any doubt that Erin had our best interests in mind and that she always prioritized our interests over all else– even if it meant it meant much more work for her. Erin's hard work and integrity always made us feel like we were in the very best possible hands. I can't recommend her enough!!

  • Vetting realtors is a major pain because there are so many who only tell you what you want to hear.

    And then there’s Erin. The benefits of working with her are:

    Project management: The project management aspect is very important to an inexperienced buyer because you don't know the timelines and what to expect.

    Reading the Legalese: 200+ pages in the disclosure attachment in a contract seems hefty, esp. for those not well versed in the law. Well, Erin's past life as a real estate attorney got it covered.

    Negotiation tactics: Erin is an extremely strong negotiator and has lots of tricks up her sleeve that are unique to her.”
