What Our Clients Think
Write a ReviewMy dad used and trusted Bernice because she sold one of his homes that no one else could seem to sell - and for more!! Bernice and her team are very trusted with our family, so it was just natural that I used her to help me buy my first home. I'm so excited to be moving and have found the perfect place. Bernice and her team have been incredible throughout this whole process. They have made being a first-time homebuyer feel less scary. We began the process of putting my offer in during the holidays, and Bernice worked tirelessly with me to make sure we got everything in before the deadline (despite it being in the middle of the holiday season). I couldn't have asked for a better person to be by my side through this whole process. She is so kind, patient, and extremely knowledgeable. She made sure all my questions were answered promptly and that I understood every document I signed. I was so glad to have someone who knows what they're doing by my side. She's super reachable, easy to get along with, and has your back. Thank you again, and I'm so excited for my happy new beginning!!

I cannot say enough good things about Bernice and her team! We actually moved to another state but kept our home in Virginia as a rental. When it came time to sell, we knew we wanted to work with Bernice again. We sent her a quick text and she immediately offered to chat with us by phone and discuss a timeline and strategy. Bernice offered invaluable insight into how to transition our home from rental to ready to sell. And as we were located 5 hours away in a different state, she was our eyes and ears on the house and took many trips over to give us updates by video and phone and offer suggestions. She helped connect us to different contractors and services as well. We took all of her advice on renovations and ended up getting an offer at asking only 4 days after listing! BUT we owe the biggest thanks to Bernice for how hard she worked to get us to closing and the care she showed us during what ended up being an extremely challenging time personally. I received a serious health diagnosis as we were prepping the house and we suddenly were forced into an extremely tight timeline to sell before my medical care began. Bernice essentially bent over backwards and went the extra mile to make sure we were ready to list and got the house beautifully staged. She made all the difference in getting us to closing and we can't thank her enough that we can go into my medical treatments without the anxiety and stress of selling the house. We 100% recommend her and her phenomenal team!

We just closed on our house this past Friday and I can't say enough about Bernice Sim and her team at Happy New Beginnings. She outlined a strategy to get the most for our house, and with her guidance and recommendations, we transformed the house into a beautiful space. In just 4 days, we had a ton of showings and 7 offers. We signed a contract on day 5 for well over the asking price. And a huge thanks to Heather at Happy New Beginnings, who kept us on track and answered any questions that popped up along the way. We would definitely use Bernice again when selling a home.

Selling a home from hundreds of miles away is stressful and daunting—especially an estate property with lots of moving parts. That’s why we’re so glad we had Bernice and the Happy New Beginnings team on our side. From day one, Bernice showed us she knows exactly what she’s doing. She prepared us for potential challenges, kept us ahead of every step, and stayed incredibly responsive and proactive throughout the entire process.Her assistant, Heather, was equally amazing—always in communication and ready to help with anything we needed. We also can’t say enough about Deborah who went above and beyond to help with the emptying-out process and relocate the former occupant, not an easy task.This wasn’t an easy transaction—there were plenty of twists and turns—but Bernice held it all together and kept us focused on the finish line. Thanks to her marketing and guidance, we attracted lots of attention, had multiple offers to choose from, and ended up selling for more than we expected.If you’re facing an estate sale or selling a home from out of state, you need a team that truly has your back. For us, that was Bernice and the Happy New Beginnings Team.

Working with Bernice Sim at Happy New Beginnings was truly a top-notch experience. From the very beginning, she was professional, organized, and an absolute joy to work with. She not only guided me through the selling process, but also helped us prepare our home so it would show beautifully and sell smoothly. And that it did!What really stood out was Bernice caring nature, during moments when I felt stressed, her encouraging words and steady motivation lifted me up and kept me focused. She went above and beyond to make sure I never felt alone in the process.Her staff at Happy New Beginnings was also outstanding, knowledgeable, responsive, and always willing to provide the information I needed to feel confident every step of the way.I can honestly say that working with Bernice and her team turned what could've been an overwhelming experience into a positive, successful, and even enjoyable journey.
