Bio
You would be hard-pressed to find someone with a more comprehensive knowledge of real estate than Sarina Dhanoa. With years of experience in real estate investment, house flipping, and being an agent, Sarina brings a varied skill set to the table—it is no wonder she is considered such a trusted, dependable agent within the Bay Area community.
After graduating from UC Davis with a biology degree and a minor in English, Sarina started a diverse and elite corporate career. She worked at Hewlett-Packard directly after college before moving to London to finish her MBA at the esteemed University of Greenwich.
From there, she returned to California to help start a biotech company, where she remained for seven years before selling the business.
At that point, she relocated to Southeast Asia to work for a global pharmaceutical company before returning to the Bay Area. There, she found her niche in the idyllic region, with its scenic views, rolling hills, and parks perfect for families and young professionals. Having lived in the area for more than a decade now, she has intimate knowledge of the many communities she serves, including San Ramon, Danville, Pleasanton, Dublin, and Livermore.
In addition to collaborating with first-time homebuyers, families looking to relocate, and people looking to move during a stressful life event, Sarina also teaches HUD certification seminars for the local housing authorities. These seminars provide housing counseling services to assist those seeking to improve their financial literacy and gain access to affordable housing opportunities.
Her corporate experience has been a critical asset to gaining trust and traction with her real estate clients. Living in such varied locations has helped make her a well-rounded individual who knows better than most what a huge transition moving can be.
Sarina’s clients consider her a friend, first. Caring, dependable, and resourceful, Sarina is all about open communication and walking her clients through every step of the process. She works diligently to ensure her clients are at ease.
All her challenging work and dedication has paid off in spades for both her and her clients. She is a well reputed agent in the Bay Area and has received multiple accolades throughout her tenure. During her first year in the business, Sarina was named Rookie of the Year. Additional achievements include being a Gold Medalist and a Double Gold Medalist. She also achieved the title of Bay East MLS Grand Master for two years in a row and was voted Best of Zillow.
When she is not busy with her clients, Sarina loves spending time with her family, including her husband and their adorable children Kabir, 8, and Mahi, 6. She feels lucky that her husband is also her best friend, and they often spend hours chatting or listening to music together. She jokes that her husband, a physician at John Muir, doubles as her “DJ for life!”
