Alana Corso, Real Estate Broker - San Carlos, California

Jordan Sturm

We've recently purchased our home in the White Oaks area of San Carlos and it would not have been possible without Alana. She came highly recommended to us by friends and we were immediately impressed by her knowledge of the market and the San Carlos area. She was patient, responsive, diligent and caring throughout our experience.

Knowing we were going to likely purchase a home that would need some work, we felt like Alana really listened to what we needed/wanted in a home, while also providing the right amount of guidance and helping us see the potential of a space. Since we closed on our house, she has also been an amazing resource for us as we navigate a remodel, including connecting us with a designer that we also love.

I have nothing but good things to say about Alana and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy/sell a home in the Bay Area.

We recently purchased our home with Alana's help. Alana learns what we are looking for and is always able to provide honest opinions and technical assessment (remodel needs/cost, move-in readiness, resale value, etc.) on whether a house is going to suit our long term needs. We also viewed some off-market opportunities with her. She was responsive in scheduling appointments and accompanied us on every home tour.

We are very pleased with our new home and would recommend Alana for your real estate needs.

Alana was an absolute lifesaver when it came to navigating the complex world of real estate. As a first-time homebuyer, I was overwhelmed, but she was incredibly patient and explained everything clearly. She helped me with the purchase and sale of my first home in San Mateo. The entire process was smooth, efficient, and we sold the property off market. Alana then guided me through finding the next place and we zeroed in on an ideal condo in the Redwood Shores neighborhood of Redwood City. Alana's knowledge of the market and dedication to her clients are unmatched. I wholeheartedly recommend Alana to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

After the passing of our parents, my sister and I used Alana Corso to handle the sale of our family home in Menlo Park, CA. Alana was an amazing support during a very difficult time for my sister and me. Alana suggested we get everything out of the house that we WANTED and let her coordinate removal of the rest. Alana handled several runs to goodwill with usable (but not valuable) items. She also handled the dump runs which would have been particularly hard for us. She got bids for the painting, repairs, yard work, and staging that was needed. All we had to do was approve the work. She also helped us understand all the paperwork and steps needed throughout the whole process. It couldn't have gone more smoothly. She got it sold quickly and we got more for the house than I expected. So happy we listed with Alana! By the time it was done, she felt like a friend rather than someone we hired.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Alana Corso for my recent home purchase. Being fairly new to the Bay Area, I was initially overwhelmed by the housing market. Alana's extensive knowledge and expertise made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Alana took the time to truly understand my needs and preferences. She guided me through each step, ensuring I was well-informed and confident in my decisions. What sets Alana apart is her commitment to going above and beyond. She provided invaluable insights, answered all my questions, and was always available when I needed her. Her personalized approach and genuine care made all the difference, and I couldn't be happier with my new home. If you're looking for a realtor who is knowledgeable, patient, and truly dedicated to her clients, I wholeheartedly recommend Alana!

Alana is more than just a real state broker. She’s a wonderful person with strong relationships across all walks of life (from other brokers, to painters, to neighbors at houses we looked at— Alana knows everyone and treats them all with respect). She’s a clear community leader and an active parent. It’s all these qualities that made us feel like Alana knew we were looking for more than a home— we were looking for a community where we’d spend the most precious time we’ll have as a family of four. When you work with Alana, you know she actually cares about where you end up. She gave us the unvarnished truth about many of the places we were interested in and made us think about the long game. Now, we’re in our dream house in the wonderful community of San Carlos. We cannot thank Alana enough or recommend her more highly.

We had the pleasure of working with Alana for our home purchase in San Mateo in 2022.

From the moment we met her Alana was quite helpful and listened to our unique requests and was proactive in finding places for us to tour. Alana’s friendly approach, kindness, and warmth was vital for us during our first home buying experience.

During the tours she pointed out items for us to pay attention to and also if there were any potential issues we should be aware of. She had a deep knowledge of many areas on the peninsula and also helped us calibrate our bids for homes. Alana often was able to tour houses and make recommendations on which ones to tour.

Once we did finalize on a home she saw it through to the end of the process and we’re very grateful for that.

We would highly recommend Alana and we look forward to working with her in the future.

Alana helped us find our first home. We couldn't have wished for a better experience, from start to finish. Alana is extremely knowledgeable about the Bay Area real estate market and we felt like we had solid support from her throughout our months-long search. Alana was super helpful and accessible. As first time home buyers in the area, she walked us through the process step by step, explaining everything and answering our many questions. She gave us lots of practical advice, but never pushed us to make decisions. She even connected us with a mortgage officer who was equally competent and communicative. When it comes time to buy our next home, we can't think of work with anyone but Alana.
