We are so grateful to Josh for helping us through the process of buying our first home! As first-time homebuyers, we had so many questions and honestly didn’t know what to expect, but Josh made the whole experience feel much less overwhelming.

From the very beginning, Josh was patient, responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable. He took the time to explain everything to us, answered all of our questions (even the little ones!), and made sure we always felt comfortable with each decision. We never felt pressured or rushed, and it was clear that Josh genuinely cared about finding the right home for us rather than simply making a sale.

There were definitely stressful moments throughout the process, but having Josh in our corner made such a difference. He was always there when we needed him and helped us navigate everything from finding the right home to making an offer and getting through closing.

We couldn’t be happier with our first home and are so thankful that Josh was the person who helped us get here. We would absolutely recommend Josh to anyone looking to buy a home, especially other first-time buyers. He made what could have been a very intimidating experience feel exciting and manageable. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better real estate agent!

My fiance and I recently bought our home with Josh, and we genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

One of our very first interactions with Josh was what he called a “Grand Tour.” He took us around the neighborhood we were interested in and showed us several different homes so we could get a realistic understanding of what the market looked like and what our budget could get us. We really appreciated this approach because it helped have a realistic expectation early on and gave us a much better sense of what we were looking for.

From the beginning, Josh took the time to truly understand what we wanted in a home and was incredibly proactive about finding both on and off market listings that fit our needs. He would take the time to scope out and understand a property before showing it to us in person, which made us feel like our time and priorities were genuinely respected.

One thing we especially appreciated was that we never once felt pressured to make a decision. Buying a home can be overwhelming, especially in the Bay Area, but Josh was always patient and took the time to explain the process, answer our questions, and make sure we felt informed every step of the way.

Josh is also incredibly responsive, whether through email, phone, or text, and we always felt supported throughout the entire process. Beyond helping us find a home, he has an amazing network of contacts for everything from banking to movers, which has been incredibly helpful.

At the end of the day, we feel like we made a friend rather than just found a real estate agent. We’re so grateful to have had Josh advocating for us during such an important milestone and would without a doubt recommend him to anyone looking to buy a home in the Bay Area!!!

We worked with Josh on both the purchase and sale of our investment property, and he made the entire process feel incredibly smooth from start to finish.

Throughout the project, Josh was very communicative about market conditions and what buyers were actually looking for, which helped us make better decisions during the renovation and selling process. One thing that really stood out was how proactive he was with marketing the property before construction was even fully completed. Rather than waiting for the home to officially hit the market, he started generating off-market interest early through his network and was able to connect us with an agent and qualified buyer before listing publicly. That made a huge difference for us and really showed the value of his relationships and hustle behind the scenes.

We also appreciated how hands-off he allowed the process to be for us. We communicated our goals and preferences upfront, and he handled the negotiations and coordination exactly the way we hoped. He stayed on top of every detail, made sure we didn’t miss any documents or deadlines, and ensured the property was fully prepared before handing it off to the buyers.

Overall, Josh was organized, proactive, and easy to trust throughout the entire experience. We’re very happy with the outcome and would absolutely work with him again. Thanks so much Josh!

Josh represented us as a buyer’s agent with our recent home purchase. I strongly recommend Josh for anyone looking for a realtor. Working with Josh was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. If you are looking for an agent who is not pushy, honest, and truly knowledgeable about the market, Josh is the guy. He took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for. His responsiveness is unmatched—he always answered our calls and emails immediately, helped us tremendously while making crucial decisions. Josh provided sound, honest advice, helping us navigate potential pitfalls and ultimately finding us our dream home. Highly recommend Josh!

We had a really great experience working with Josh during our home-buying process. He was always easy to reach, quick to respond, and happy to meet in person whenever we needed. Josh helped keep things moving with the seller’s agent and shared useful insight on what makes an offer strong. He was patient, never pressured us to buy, and supported us for over a year while always looking out for our best interests. We truly appreciated working with him and would happily recommend him to others.

Working with Josh was such a great experience from start to finish. From the very beginning, he took the time to really understand what we were looking for and worked within our constraints. Even though we were remote for much of the process, he kept us updated with listings that fit our changing preferences and was always quick to adjust the search when our needs evolved.

When we were finally in town, he went above and beyond, he created a full day tour around the Peninsula, complete with a thoughtfully planned schedule and even coffee to keep us going! Throughout the entire journey, from touring homes to closing, he guided us through every step with patience, transparency, and care.

My partner and I always felt safe, informed, and truly taken care of. It’s clear he genuinely wants the best for his clients. We couldn’t have asked for a smoother experience, and we’re already looking forward to working with him again in the future. Thanks again Josh!

Josh has been amazing! We’ve worked with him on two separate occasions about one year apart. He helped us purchase our new home and sell our old one. He’s very detailed oriented and always had great communication throughout the process. Don’t hesitate to get in contact with him! Looking forward to more future opportunities together!

We had a great experience working with Josh to sell our previous home and purchase our new one. He was an excellent communicator who always kept us informed and up to date throughout the entire process. What could have been a stressful experience was made incredibly smooth thanks to his professionalism and solution-oriented approach. He went above and beyond to help us with any issues that came up after closing on our new home as well. We’re really happy with the price we sold our home for and the deal we got on our new one, he negotiated on our behalf and made sure we were taken care of every step of the way. We would highly recommend Josh to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!

We recently bought a new Home with Josh as our realtor and we would like to share the experience here. Josh was very helpful and knowledgeable. He was very prompt with communication and very patient throughout the process. He quickly understood what we were looking for in our next home and was able to narrow down the search for us which really helped us landing a home which we love! We have no doubts in our mind that we would go with Josh for future real estate needs as well and definitely recommend him for anyone looking for a top a realtor !

My husband and I first met Josh at an open house in Millbrae in 2022. We were on and off in our home search for about three years before deciding to seriously begin looking in 2026.

Throughout those three years, we never once felt pressured by Josh to buy a home. He was incredibly patient and understanding, keeping us informed about the market, providing updates on current trends, and sharing what he anticipated for the future even before we had officially signed on with him. That level of dedication and genuine care really stood out to us.

We quickly came to appreciate Josh's extensive knowledge of the Bay Area and his professionalism. When it was finally time to move forward with our home search, there was never any question that we wanted Josh to be our realtor.

From the very beginning, Josh made us feel comfortable. He took the time to truly understand our needs, priorities, and what we were looking for in a home. He carefully walked us through the purchase contract so we fully understood the process and even took us on a neighborhood tour to help us compare different communities. That experience was invaluable in helping us identify the areas that best fit our lifestyle.

Throughout our search, Josh was patient, responsive, and always available to answer our questions. We toured many homes, and at no point did we ever feel pressured to make an offer just for the sake of buying. Instead, he listened carefully to what we liked and disliked about each property and used that feedback to help refine our search.

When we finally found our dream home, Josh guided us through every step of the process. He made sure we understood each step, kept us informed, and advocated for us throughout the transaction. Even after closing, Josh has continued to be an incredible resource. He remains available, responds quickly to our questions, and has continued to support us as we settle into our new home.

As first-time homebuyers, the entire process was unfamiliar and could have been overwhelming. Josh made it feel manageable by taking the time to explain everything thoroughly. We always felt informed, supported, and confident in the decisions we were making. We couldn't have asked for a better realtor and would highly recommend Josh to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

The whole process was very new since we were first time home buyers. We figured out something new every day! During the whole process we had a lot of questions but Josh always had answers to keep us informed, and we never felt alone. The most surprising thing was how quickly things moved. Josh gave us all the information we needed, kept us informed along the way, and we just felt comfortable with him. He was very open and it didn’t feel like working with a salesman. He was down to earth, gave us facts, and really seemed to care about our goals. The thing that surprised us the most was after we closed, the team reached out to offer delivering a moving day meal to us! This isn’t something we expected but was really thoughtful. A huge thank you to Josh and the Caroline K. Huo Group for helping us to go from anxious first-time buyers, to feeling secure as new homeowners.

My husband and I were contemplating starting the process of buying a home when we received a postcard for your team's buyer workshop. I thought, “Maybe I’ll call and sign up." Instead of a workshop, we met with Josh for a 1:1, and just talking to him made us feel so comfortable letting him take the lead. He didn’t try to sell the company or himself; he just listened to us and took the time to understand our needs. We were so impressed we didn’t feel the need to speak with anyone else and scheduled another call just four days later to start searching for a home in earnest. We learned a lot throughout the process because everything was new, but we never felt anxious or uncertain because of Josh and your team’s support. With other service providers, you’re always told as an empty promise, “We will take care of you,” but that’s exactly what happened with Josh and his team. We felt incredibly well taken care of. Josh front-loaded what to expect and kept in communication. He is very prompt, and it was impressive that everyone on the team maintained that same high level of professionalism and responsiveness. The outcome of working with Josh truly exceeded our expectations. Just imagine an anxious first-time buyer responding to a flyer and immediately finding someone they can trust—that’s rare, and that’s exactly what we found. Your team set the bar exceptionally high for us. Overall, we felt safe and cared for throughout the entire experience. I cannot recommend Josh or your team enough, and have already connected Josh to a loved one who is searching for a home.

After interviewing a few agents to sell our family home in San Mateo, we decided to have Caroline and her staff sell the home for us. From the beginning, Caroline was very professional, honest and made us feel very comfortable with our decision to use her services. Caroline and all her staff are excellent in communicating all of the numerous steps to get the house ready for market, making a very professional marketing video for social media, coordinating the open house, evaluating the offers for the house, and getting the best possible price. Since this was a trust sale and family members did not live in town, we really appreciated the hands on approach to taking care of every detail of cleaning the house and yard, getting a contractor to perform updates to the house in a timely manner and making sure all of the necessary forms are filled out correctly. I would also like to express our heartfelt thanks to Joshua, Nicole, Jermarie and Hayley. As difficult as it was to sell our family home of 60+ years, Caroline and her staff are a fantastic group to work with to get the job done. When you need a great realtor to sell your home, look no further than Caroline Huo.

We met Josh at an open house in Sunnyvale. We weren’t looking for anything immediately, but Josh still met with us again and explained the process, but wasn’t pushy. He really helped us understand what to expect and what not to expect and he made us feel very comfortable and confident about buying a home. He was really great to work with. One of the things I really admired is he was really prompt in his responses, and always made good suggestions. To our surprise, we did find a home we loved! Josh helped us pull together a team to get pre-approval done quickly to make a preemptive offer. The only thing that kind of surprised us was how the market works and how much more you pay for the house than you expect! In the end, I would say that buying a house is stressful, and a lot of things that could go wrong and some did happen, but we trusted Josh, and everything worked out wonderfully.

Josh is an amazing realtor who genuinely cares about his clients like family. My husband and I really appreciated how thoughtful he was in listening to our preferences and taking the time to show us listings throughout the Bay Area, helping us feel confident in our final decision. Buying our first home was a huge milestone and, at times, felt overwhelming, but having Josh by our side made the process so much easier. He was always there to answer our questions, offer thoughtful advice, and guide us through every step of the home-buying journey.

Josh demonstrated his professionalism in so many ways and gave us complete confidence in his ability to help us find the right home for our needs. He was exceptional at evaluating homes and could quickly identify potential issues that might cause problems for us in the future. He was also incredibly responsive and kept us in constant communication throughout the entire process.

He helped us explore homes in neighborhoods that matched our specific preferences while also encouraging us to keep our options open. In the end, we found our home in an ideal location with great schools nearby, and we couldn’t be happier!

We highly recommend Josh for his excellent communication, strong negotiation skills, deep knowledge of the market, attention to detail, and, most importantly, his warm and kind presence. We are so grateful to have had him by our side during such an important milestone in our lives!

Josh was awesome to work with! Fast-paced, super attentive to detail, and always responsive. Whenever we were interested in a place, he’d quickly get more information from the selling agents which was super helpful.

When we finally found our dream home, Josh guided us through every step and made the whole process remarkably smooth. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and dedicated agent.

All realtors are not created equal. Josh is simply top-shelf. And as such has been our experience working with him from start to even now, post-purchase. We met Josh at an open house. At that time, I was looking into self-representation. My prior experience working with a realtor included being accompanied to a house I found on redfin and subsequently being pressured to sign an exclusive agreement that the agent either did not bother to or could not explain. Josh shared what he does differently for his clients and offered a trial to see if we could be a good fit. I shared that we needed to be in a house by the end of the year and we got to work. We kicked off our search with a ride along around prospective neighborhoods. Here we thought we knew this particular area, but the saying is really true: you don’t know what you don’t know. Josh provides context to neighborhoods in terms of price points and desirability, floor plans, features specific to the home—like two car garages or backyard views, and features specific to the neighborhood—like underground power lines, proximity to schools, freeway, shopping, etc. When it came time to sign an agreement, Josh explained each part of the contract until we were satisfied. Josh took ample time to understand what we were looking for. It didn't take long for him to learn the subtleties in our preferences. On the other hand, Josh doesn’t hesitate to point out red flags. Working with Josh really feels like you’re adding another player to the team—and he’s seen most situations a dozen times. As you can tell—if you’ve made it this far—I can talk Josh up all day. Ultimately, what I value most about working with Josh is first, his strong understanding of the market, and, secondly how locked in he is on offer days. In total, we made plays on four houses, and, four times, he accurately counseled us on the bid that would get it done. More importantly, he goes the extra mile to put the team in the best position to win.

So there you have it from the perspective of a once non-believer. Josh exceeded my most lofty expectations of what working with a realtor should be like. He is: always present, skilled and experienced as the come, and enjoyable to work with and just a good guy. I give you, prospective buyer or seller, my utmost recommendation of Josh.

Partnering with Josh as our realtor was one of the best decisions my wife and I could have made. We first connected with him in early November 2025 to begin conversations about potentially exploring options for our future home. Understanding how stressful the home-buying process can be, Josh took the time to truly get to know us—our preferences, qualifications, and must-haves, as well as what we didn’t want—so that our time was always used efficiently and thoughtfully.
Within just one week, Josh had identified 13 potential listings that fit our requirements. We spent a full Saturday touring homes together, and at every showing, Josh was attentive, engaged, and incredibly helpful. He listened closely to our feedback and provided honest guidance on both the positives and potential drawbacks of each property, offering insight from both a buyer’s and seller’s perspective. Touring these homes gave my wife and me even more clarity around what we truly wanted in a home.
What began as an initial, educational round of showings quickly turned into finding the perfect home. Thanks to Josh’s responsiveness and ability to work quickly with the listing agent, we were able to submit a competitive offer on a home that had just gone on the market that Friday, and we were under contract the very next day.
Throughout the escrow process, Josh was consistently communicative and patient, answering every question we had (and we had plenty). His calm and steady approach made the entire experience feel smooth and manageable.
If you work with Josh, you can expect:
• Active listening
• Deep local market knowledge
• Strong negotiation skills (offer accepted within 24 hours)
• Strong relationships with lenders
• Great attention to detail
• A calm and confident presence under pressure

If you are looking to buy a home in the near future, I would 100% recommend Josh Lee

We first met Josh at a for sale house in San Mateo. First impression, he is an enthusiastic young man. When Josh called me back to follow up, I agreed to ask him to be our buying agent. During the two-month house searching period, whenever we ask him to schedule a visit, Josh is always very helpful, very considerate, as well as very professional. He guided us through not only Foster City/San Mateo, but also Redwood City area. During negotiation, Josh did an excellent job, putting in extraordinary effort to help us successfully get the house! During escrow, he communicated with us daily till the closing date. We highly recommend Josh!

Josh was a pleasure to work with. We had a very specific need for a house, and he relentlessly pursued options for us until we found our match. He was great in dealing with other realtors and was able to show us off-market properties. He was honest with us when he felt a property wasn’t the right fit and was patient when we weren’t sure ourselves.

When it time came for the offer and sale, he walked us through every step and provided great guidance. As first-time home buyers, we didn’t know how complex the process would be but felt confident with Josh in our corner.

We would recommend Josh to friends/family/strangers because he truly wants to find a home you’ll love, and won’t push you into anything you’re not comfortable with. If we ever move, we’ll be sure to work with Josh again!

Josh was a pleasure to work with in our journey of finding our first home. He was very attentive with our needs and wants and worked with our budget in a professional and empathetic manner. Our journey was a bit long but he was very patient with us all the way. He was very responsive and always made sure to answer any of our questions to the best of his ability. Always strived to go above and beyond. Highly recommend Josh for anyone looking for a realtor that is professional and friendly to work with your next realty need!

Had an amazing experience with Josh! He was quick, professional, thorough, and got the job done. Couldn’t be happier with our new home and the great price he got us.

We are so glad we had Josh on our team! Working with Josh felt less like a transaction and more like a partnership. He was incredibly responsive, always quick to answer our questions via email or text and impressively flexible whenever we needed to tour a home or discuss a new listing. What we appreciated most was his honesty; he never just told us what we wanted to hear, but instead provided professional, candid advice on every home we looked at. He has a keen eye for quality and potential, and he genuinely cared about finding us a home that would fit our needs.

Even when we were ready to step back from the competitive summer market, Josh kept searching for us. He eventually steered us toward a property we hadn't even considered that turned out to be our perfect forever home. Most importantly, he guided us flawlessly through some tough negotiations to make sure we secured it.

We are so grateful for his guidance, persistence, and expertise. We can't recommend Josh enough!

Since Oct' 23, I was looking for a primary home, and have worked with quite a few agents. I chose to work with Josh which was a leap of faith, and I’m glad that I did. Josh is a true professional and I really liked his working attitude. He’s very capable, and this first engagement with your team was really good. Your team is very much top-notch. I will be looking to buy other homes soon, and will definitely work with Josh and your team again.

We chose your team because Josh was very transparent right from the start; he made it clear he was on our side and dedicated to helping us find our home. His support and communication were excellent, and we appreciated how he connected us with the right people who made buying our home possible. One of the big surprises was how confusing pictures online can be—you see the house online, and then when you see it in person, you get a different picture. Josh was really good at pointing out these things that we needed to be aware of. At the beginning, we were pretty anxious and nervous because of the sticker shock and the experience of navigating buying a house. But as we moved through the closing process and Josh kept us updated on everything, it relieved a lot of stress. He exceeded our expectations with his knowledge and experience. Once we got into contract, it was a seamless process without any hiccups. We appreciated how easy it was to communicate with Josh and the team - everyone was so available. I would very much recommend Josh and the Caroline K. Huo Group to others!

We had the pleasure of working with Josh at Caroline Huo Group throughout our home purchase journey. He's been there every step of the way advocating for us and offering strategic options best suited for our family. Entering into a real estate transaction can be overwhelming and daunting with so much at stake. With that in mind, Josh is very thoughtful and respectful in how he navigates this milestone with us. He worked diligently and continuously kept us informed of every stage of the process while taking us seamlessly to the finish line.


Josh has remarkable follow throughs and is highly responsive during the entire engagement. He's extremely professional but yet personable. We are so happy to have Josh on this important chapter with us. Keep up the excellent work!

What I did appreciate is that I would communicate with Josh from my end, and he would go out of his way to summarize what's happening and what was needed. He was a liason and he was triaging everything for me. I worked ......Josh was maximum effort. Josh also gave me a summary report of the disclosures that he made himself and I had never rec'd that before.

He would summarize things, or if I was busy, but there were a few times where the fire and home owner insurance agent needed to be connected to everyone, and he was that conduit that stepped in and kept everything moving.
