Meet Leslie

Your Personal Real Estate Agent

Representing Mid-Peninsula homeowners and future homeowners, my focus is simple: to understand what matters most to you and guide you toward the outcome that supports your goals. I listen closely, communicate clearly, and use thoughtful negotiation to protect your interests at every stage of the process.

As a lifelong Peninsula resident, I also bring an insider’s perspective on Silicon Valley’s neighborhoods, schools, and the intangible benefits that make this area so special. My long-standing local connections and deep community roots allow me to offer both expertise and genuine insight as you make one of life’s most meaningful decisions.

Whether you’re preparing your home for market or searching for the right place to call home, I’m by your side through every step to help you move forward with confidence.

Testimonials
  • "What truly sets Leslie apart is her reputation and relationships within the real estate community. In such a competitive market, having a well-respected realtor like Leslie made a huge difference. We always felt confident knowing she was advocating for us and using her connections to help us succeed."
    – Kaitlin F.
  • “Wow! I loved working with Leslie. She was so helpful meeting my needs as a trustee from out of state. She knew the market, knew the contractors, and worked so well with all the players in my family. My project was huge, and she guided me through a major renovation to a successful sale and best possible outcome for the trust. It doesn’t get any better than that!”
    – Nancy H.
  • “Any buyer or seller would be so fortunate to have Leslie Woods in their corner. She had quite an undertaking with us–as my dad had passed away. We decided some updating to his place was prudent and she helped coordinate everything on the remodel, as well as helped us eliminate the years of things that had accumulated in his home. What an asset to her industry and to anyone fortunate to work with her!”
    – Sarah F.
  • “If you want to get into the competitive real estate market of Menlo Park, Palo Alto, and the surrounding neighborhoods, Leslie is definitely the agent you want to work with! Leslie’s impeccable service, sharp negotiating skills and innovative marketing have provided us with the best possible transactions. Whether listing or selling, she delivers the results for us every single time with the personal attention and guidance.”
    – Grace J.
  • “We worked with Leslie to purchase our home in Palo Alto. It’s a very hot market, and without Leslie’s help, I don’t know how we would have managed. Leslie was able to recommend a good mortgage broker, help us look at a number of homes, and guide us through the process of purchasing our home, which included a competitive bidding process with five bidders. Throughout it all, Leslie was a calm and reassuring presence, never pressuring us, but also always willing and able to help.”
    – Chris Y.
  • “When we decided to sell our home of 12 years in Menlo Park, we reached out to a friend who used to be an agent in the area looking for recommendations. She immediately recommended Leslie Woods. Our home was sold within 3 days of being on market during a very unstable period of home sales declining rapidly. Even after the closing, Leslie has continued helping us with that same energy and follow-through. In every way, Leslie exceeded our expectations.”
