Get to Know Me
Real estate is in Negar Souza’s DNA. As the daughter of longtime East Bay Realtor Feri Niroomand, Negar grew up spending weekends at open houses, learning the business by observation before stepping into the profession herself. “I used to go with my mom on tours, even during the week,” she recalls. “I learned first by watching, later by practice.” That early exposure shaped her passion for the work that has now defined her career for more than two decades.
After earning her B.A. in Interior Architecture from San Francisco State University, Negar began as her mother’s assistant in 2003 and became a licensed Realtor in 2005. Today, she and Feri form one of the region’s most trusted and respected mother-daughter real estate teams—combining warmth, creativity, and expert negotiation skills to guide clients through one of life’s most meaningful milestones.
For over two decades, Negar and her team have successfully completed more than 450 transactions, representing over $400 million in residential and commercial sales across the Bay Area, San Francisco, Marin, and Lamorinda. Their proven results and unwavering integrity have earned them recognition among the top 1% of agents nationwide. A consistent top producer at Red Oak Realty and voted “Best Real Estate Team” in El Cerrito (2022–2025), Negar is also a Certified Residential Specialist (CRS)—a distinction held by fewer than 3% of Realtors nationwide—and a Senior Real Estate Specialist (SRES), offering specialized expertise for clients 55 and older.
Beyond her own business, Negar channels her decades of experience into supporting Red Oak’s community of agents through collaboration, mentorship, and transaction support when complex situations arise. Known for her calm, solutions-oriented approach, she helps colleagues navigate challenges with confidence and creativity, ensuring every client across the brokerage receives the highest level of service.
Negar and her husband are raising their three children in the El Cerrito Hills, where they stay active in school, sports, and neighborhood events. Whether she’s cheering on a local team, organizing a fundraiser, or handing keys to a first-time buyer, Negar’s heart is always in the same place—helping others succeed while giving back to the community she loves.
