Biography

Born and raised in India with pit stops in NYC and London, Sonam's move to Hong Kong 4 years ago has given her an in-depth insight into the life of an expat in this bustling city, where she has quickly cultivated a large network of landlords specialising in multiple neighbourhoods on Hong Kong island. With an approach to both rentals and sales as if she were choosing her own home, she has been known to unearth some hidden gems during her time as an agent. She's a positive person with creative solutions, which helps her keeping long lasting associations with her clients.

When she isn't out hunting for the perfect home to show her clients, Sonam loves to read, go wake surfing, hiking with her 2-year-old rescue puppy Miso, explore new travel destinations, play badminton, or spend time at home with her family.

Client Testimonials

I highly recommend Sonam to anyone looking to rent out their apartment in Hong Kong. She is a true rockstar! She helped me rent out my apartment twice, both during the COVID-19 pandemic when I was stuck out of the country. She went above and beyond to help me with everything, from the handover from the previous tenants to finding new tenants. She even suggested and coordinated touch-up work, helped with inventory checks, and took detailed photos and video walk-throughs. She was also great at getting prospective clients to the door and handling the entire process of coordinating viewings, follow-ups, and contract negotiations. She made the entire process stress-free, even though it should have been anything but. I would have been a total mess without her! Sonam is a lovely, positive, and pleasant person to deal with. She is also very knowledgeable about the Hong Kong rental market. I quickly came to consider her a friend, not just an agent. I can't thank her enough for all her help!
Mr. Jai
Sonam is a true professional who actually cares about her clients. It is not just a job for her, she takes a personal interest, as if the property is her own and ensures that the client gets what they want. For example, I had a property that was being rented out to someone who was not a good tenant. Sonam kept in constant touch with me and patiently waited until the old tenancy agreement ended and immediately found me a new tenant. I have no hesitation in recommending her as a reliable and professional property agent.
Mrs. Prasheena MAHTANI
I wanted to thank you for your help in finding our last 2 apartments. You were very helpful was after the after sale service which is always so important in my opinion. Thank you and will definitely use your services when we have to change flats next time.
Jean-charles HERBET
My wife and I used Sonam as our real estate agent for a rental apartment in October 2022. She was referred to us by a friend who had previously used Sonam. We were moving after 15 years in Estoril Court and also downsizing. We used more than one agent, but Sonam was the most responsive and showed us the best apartments in Central Mid-levels that met our requirements. Sonam seemed to know the landlord well and have his trust, and she helped us achieve terms that met our parameters. Apart from selecting and securing the property itself, Sonam was also helpful in recommending or referring third parties like movers to assist in our move. Before, during and after the move, Sonam has remained involved in discussions with the landlord, getting renovations completed by him and helping us with utilities and other related matters. She has acted professionally throughout and we continue to be very satisfied with her performance.
Romnesh Lamba and Sagiri Dayal
We’ve worked with Sonam on 2 moves, multiple negotiations, rent reductions, stamp duties, and much more, and working with her has always been such a pleasure. She’s helped with everything to do with our moves and has always gone above and beyond to close deals for us. Furthermore, most agent - client relationships end the day the lease is signed, but Sonam has always stayed in touch to make sure the move went smoothly and helped with things beyond her job scope. I have recommended Sonam to dozens of people and I will continue to do so, because she’s absolutely fantastic at her job. She has great relationships with her clients and landlords, and provides such a positive representation of Okay.com.
Ms. Radhika MAHIDHARA
When I first discover that we were supposed to go back to HK in 2022, I started to look online for a new home.Considering that I had a new born was quite stressful to even figure out how to do apartment hunting. I started my first conversation with Sonam via WhatsApp while I was still in Italy, she understood my needs and reassure me that we would have plenty of choices for viewings once I arrived in HK. The good part is that we had this conversations via WhatsApp even if I was far away, most of the other agents didn’t want to even communicate with me so much as I was not in Hong Kong yet! We kept in touch exchanging messages till we first met in February. She showed me around and she was extremely kind and patient as I had my baby with me at all times during viewings. Well…comes out that thanks to her we found the apartment that met all our needs in Mid-Levels with also an amazing landlord. Big thank you Sonam for your professionalism, flexibility, patience and good taste!
Sara Di BENEDETTO
We had the pleasure of working with Sonam Thadani as our real estate agent, and we cannot recommend her highly enough. From the moment we met, Sonam demonstrated her professionalism, patience, and excellent listening skills. She took the time to fully understand our needs and was determined to help us find the right home to meet our requirements. Sonam was a fantastic negotiator and was able to secure the best deal for us. She was a great communicator, always quick to respond to our queries and concerns, and kept us informed at every step of the process. Even after we had closed on our new home, Sonam continued to assist and guide us until we were fully settled in. She went above and beyond our expectations, and we were more than happy with her work. In summary, if you are looking for a real estate agent who is professional, patient, a good listener, a skilled negotiator, and a great communicator, then we strongly recommend Sonam Thadani. We would not hesitate to use her again.
Kim Ling
Sonam was recommended to us by trusted friends after they successfully found their home with her around the same time we were looking for ours. She quickly understood our unique requirements, displayed good knowledge of the local market, was able to advise on neighbourhoods and narrow our search down to the properties that closely matched our criteria. We found that Sonam was not only responsive to our inquiries but proactive in her search and negotiations, and always very pleasant to deal with. Even though our requirements were somewhat challenging, Sonam displayed great patience and understanding and never tried to rush us into other properties that had compromises, unlike many other agents in Hong Kong. She was always accommodating regarding the scheduling of viewings and made herself available on short notice when necessary. We would be happy to recommend Sonam to anyone looking to find their new home.
TK
I am so thankful for Sonam and how she helped us find the apartment of our dreams. She was very professional and patient, we weren’t easy clients to please and she has been going around with us for almost 3 months. When it came to getting the best deal, she did not disappoint. Even after signing the contract and moved in, she still checked how everything is, if there is anything else she can help with. I couldn’t possibly recommend her more if you are looking for a new place. Thank you so much Sonam!
Ms. Ruxandra CY
As a single mother moving across continents, finding an apartment in HK worried me the most. However, with the incredible support of Sonam, who worked with us from whilst we were still abroad to the point of moving in, this task resulted in our dream apartment! Sonam worked closely with me first to get a sense of the type of apartment in terms of style, was able to aptly match this with listings that were in our price range. This meant that when I arrived for our initial 3 day visit to find an apartment, everything was set up for viewings. Sonam went even further to help me understand the different areas of the city, both considering my needs as a working mother, but also my daughter's needs. She even went as far as to get the bus schedule of my daughter's school and helped map the different apartments to the routes. Sonam, through her incredible communication helped me navigate all the processes even though I was located On a vastly different time zone!
Ms. Astrid HAAS
It was an incredible pleasure to work through this process with Sonam - she made it go from one that I dreaded, to a process I thoroughly enjoyed. As a result of her dedication, enthusiasm, communication, astuteness with respect to our needs and overall kindness that when my daughter and I finally move to Hong Kong next week we will be able to stay at our new home as soon as we arrive. I can only wholeheartedly recommend her further!
Ms. Astrid HAAS
A big thank you to you Sonam! You have been most efficient and helpful in this whole process, couldn’t have wished for a better agent.
Helene Van MEERBEEK
"When I first met Sonam, I was blown away by her responsiveness and attentiveness to my inquiries and questions. I have been renting for a few years now so I have very specific requirements about the new place that I am looking for, and she has been very accommodating with me from the start. She is great at handling negotiations and follow-up with the landlords to make sure my experience was comfortable. Even though there were a few hiccups during the process, and none due to Sonam's fault, she was able to resolve them quickly. I would highly recommend Sonam to anyone who is looking in the market. She is a GEM."
Christy WONG
We worked with Sonam to find an incredible new apartment in Sai Ying Pun. She was an absolute pleasure to work with, and we share our highest recommendation for her. Sonam knows the Hong Kong property market like the back of her hand. Aside from curating listings to suit your unique preferences, she will provide an extra layer of insight into everything from property trends, neighborhoods, and commute times to help guide your decision. But what was most memorable from working with her is that she quickly transformed from being "an agent" to becoming a friend! Touring around the city for viewings with Sonam was a true pleasure. You'll enjoy a laugh with her over a coffee between viewing appointments; she'll also take that time to really listen and learn more about you to help curate new ideas for places to see. When it came to negotiation on our chosen apartment, Sonam represented us masterfully while guiding us on the fair positions we could take to get the best deal within our budget.
Mr. Oliver HAAS
We thank Sonam for her guidance throughout our apartment search. We would strongly recommend her as an agent for your future property needs.
Mr. Oliver HAAS
I hope this finds you well. I would like to take the opportunity during this festive season to express my gratitude for your efficient and responsible after sales service that extended months beyond the completion of TA signing, helping to liaise with the tenant who was having difficulties to comply with rental payments in a timely manner. With your persistent efforts you have averted a dire situation for both the landlord and tenant for which I am most grateful. Wishing you a very happy holiday and a bright and fruitful new year and beyond.
S. Chiang
Sonam was a huge resource for us when my husband and I moved back from Singapore earlier this year. We had specific requirements and she worked tirelessly to find us the home we had always been hoping for at La Hacienda on the peak, even negotiating our tenancy agreement with the landlord down to the last degree. She is a fantastic real estate agent who really looks out for her clients, and always brings a positive and pleasant disposition to all of her viewings. She has a really good grasp of the rental market trends, and a long and varied list of landlords that she has worked with in the past which gave us the ability to see the most number of places in the least amount of time before we boarded our flight back to HK! What really surprised us is the level of 'after-market' service that she brings, checking in with us even months later to make sure everything is going smoothly. Would highly recommend her services and cannot speak more highly of her skills in this market!
Warriars
In all my years of engaging with property agents across different continents, I have never come across someone as dedicated and with high EQ as Sonam Thadani. She is the most efficient, effective, intuitive professional the industry has to offer. In a heartbeat I would work with her again and recommend her to anyone looking to sell, rent or buy property.
Ms. Renee PAIK
My partner and I had been looking for a new apartment via another agent/firm for multiple months and were ready to give up hope. We found it impossible to find an apartment that 1) ticked most of our boxes and 2) was even remotely within our price range. Fortunately for us Sonam knew exactly what we were looking for and proactively showed us an apartment that we immediately loved. Could not be more grateful for her proactivity and resourcefulness in helping us find our dream apartment.
Mr. Julian ULMER
My husband and I worked with Sonam to search for a rental apartment. She was very proactive in understanding our requirements, actively proposed properties that we would have overlooked otherwise, and was extremely responsive to any questions we had. She is warm and personable, very knowledgeable of all the neighbourhoods and properties, and made the process of apartment hunting a breeze. If you are looking for hands-on support in finding the right apartment for your needs, I would highly recommend Sonam! All the best,
Ms. Michelle LEE
We have now worked with Sonam on 3 moves, multiple negotiations, rent reductions, stamp duties, and much more, and working with her has always been such a pleasure. She has helped with all aspects of our moves and has always gone above and beyond to close deals for us. This particular move was extremely gruelling, as it took 5 months and about 100 apartment viewings to find the perfect home, but Sonam never gave up! She vetted countless properties, encouraged us to think outside the box, and persisted even when we thought we couldn’t! Furthermore, most agent - client relationships end the day the lease is signed, but Sonam has always stayed in touch to make sure the move went smoothly and helped with things beyond her job scope. I have recommended Sonam to dozens of people and I will continue to do so, because she’s absolutely fantastic at her job. She has great relationships with her clients and landlords, and provides such a positive representation of Okay.com. She is definitely a su
Ms. Radhika MAHIDHARA
Sonam impressed me as a conscientious and proactive agent. She was quick in closing the deal for me, and completed all necessary procedures efficiently. I would highly recommended her service to any prospective client.
Mr. Fuk Man Kevin Luk
Dear Sonam, I take this opportunity to express our sincere appreciation for your professionalism and responsiveness throughout the transaction . It was very pleasant dealing with you, and we would not hesitate to recommend your service .
Christian de Charnacé
Sonam was absolutely fantastic in helping me find home in Hong Kong. First, she is pleasant, balanced and reliable. She does not just communicate for sake of winning business but genuinely tries to understand client’s situation and circumstances, and then customises suitable viewings. She has the domain knowledge and understands the local nuances, which definitely helps in case of an expats. She is quick, communicates effectively and shares her views, often highlighting cons of why a place may not suit despite client going ‘Wow’ at first glance. She is thorough on documentation, commands good understanding of tenancy agreement and market nuances. More importantly, she is very good at negotiating with the landlord/agent, provides counter points and alternatives and strives to work in my/tenants best interest. I found Sonam to have the best interest of the client and would recommend potential tenants to request her help in finding their new home in Hong Kong.
Mr. Rohit BHAN
She was very efficient in setting up all the viewings and giving me a sense of what’s out there. I can also tell she’s cultivated a lot of relationships with her clients so that she could give me almost first access to some of the available units. She was always super responsive and very proactive about letting me know what I should do or consider.
Ms. Jenny LEE
Sonam was very good at understanding what I needed and always responded quickly to any requests.
Ms. Jenny CHADWICK
Sonam was very helpful and patient with our house search. We had a set of criteria which she adhered to while recommending options. We saw her positive and ‘never give up’ attitude as she showed us many apartments and did not stop until we found the right fit for us. She also gave good tips on how to get by in the city. Wishing her great success!
Pooja & Sandeep
Sonam supported her clients well. She’s quick thinking and acts fast to make sure opportunities aren’t lost. She’s very detail oriented and follows up well.
