Vivien Zhang, Sales Associate / REALTOR®

Testimonials

“Vivien is by far the best real estate agent we have ever interacted with. We have met a lot of agents, having been an expat family living in various countries for more than a decade. For the last six years we have been happily living in the house Vivien found for us.
I credited Vivien for knowing what we wanted, what worked for us (budget wise, logistically, life style and aesthetics) and the right landlord for us. We met Vivien through a co- worker, who raved about Vivien. We had a 45- min meeting with Vivien in a coffee house and went over who we were, what our family was like, what we valued and disliked, our taste, commute, budget, tolerable range, etc. A few days later, Vivien booked a two-hour block of time and toured four housing options with us. Amazingly they were of four different styles, yet all our constraints were met, and we liked all of them. She then negotiated an excellent deal for us and it was quick and clean.
She has a very good style. She is very clear, thorough, and efficient. She is also extremely pleasant. You talk to her about your life and feel that she is interested. You feel she is looking for a home for you, not just a place to live.
You cannot go wrong with Vivien!"

“Through a very good friend’s recommendation, I met Vivien Zhang in 2013 in Shanghai China where she was the owner of the real estate company, Home Channel.
Shanghai is tough with many international demand on the real estate market. I have always been very particular about the detail when it comes to agents who represent my properties whether it’s rental or sale.
I want someone who is willing to go out of the way to find good tenants or buyers and most importantly, fast and efficient!
Vivien never let me down! She is a very good negotiator and is able to think through and react fast from many perspectives in order to benefit both sides, the seller and buyer/ tenant and landlord.
Look no further, Vivien is the best agent for you!"

“When I relocated from our home country of Switzerland to Shanghai with my family in 2012 it was of utmost importance to find a property in this metropolis that not only offered us a safe haven but also reflected our values and lifestyle preferences. We knew that this would be a key success factor in making China our new home for the years to come. After going through several real estate agents who were not capable of understanding what we were looking for beyond square footage and budget we began to grow doubtful if Shanghai had a suitable home on offer. Luckily Vivien Zhang was recommended to us by a friend within the Expat community. Upon meeting her we immediately knew we were now in good hands. Not only was Vivien able to empathize with our needs on several levels, she was then able to come up proposals in terms of micro location and property types we hadn't even taken into account. With each viewing we got closer to our dream house and we finally settled into a historic compound that become our home for the next 8 years. Not only was Vivien helpful in identifying the right property and and formalizing and closing the deal, she was also supportive in the after sales phase. Whenever we encountered issues with the property, the landlord or the neighbors: Vivien was there to facilitate. Her passion went above and beyond the immediate transaction. We since consider her a friend and keep in contact to this day!"

“We lived in China for 11 years. It is common to move regularly in China due to landlords selling their properties. It was our third move in Shanghai that we first met Vivien Zhang. We found Vivien to be very professional, friendly, polite and responsive to our requests and needs. She listened carefully to what we wanted from a property, and she subsequently found us the perfect duplex apartment that had open plan living, and enough space for guests and a study area. It was in a good location and close to public transport. When this apartment was sold after two years, we again engaged Vivien as our agent. She came through a second time with an amazing, open plan apartment with a large outdoor terrace. We had unrestricted views through to the Bund and could see the Pearl Tower from our terrace. This was by far our favourite apartment in the 10 years living in Shanghai. As soon as she knew we needed somewhere new to live, she was on to finding the best place for us. I would highly recommend Vivien for her professionalism and her innate ability to listen to the needs of her clients."

“Vivien was our saviour in Shanghai, and found us the perfect places as a couple and then as a family. Her inside knowledge of the property market and the relationships she developed with both the landlord and tenant allowed her to perfectly place you in your home and more often than not got you the first look and ultimately the place you were after. Vivien was at hand if we ever encountered any problems and her continued service was what allowed us to constantly return to her and always recommend her to friends."
