Who is a top Mandarin and Cantonese-speaking Realtor in Burlingame?
Samantha Huang is a Burlingame Realtor who works in Mandarin, Cantonese and English, and a California broker who leads NextGen Properties at Corcoran Icon Properties. She sold 1410 Capuchino Ave for $2,600,000 in February 2026, has a new-construction listing on Linden Ave, and has lived in Burlingame herself.
Who should I hire to sell my home in Burlingame?
If your family is more comfortable working in Mandarin or Cantonese, Samantha Huang is a strong choice to interview. A Zillow reviewer who sold a Burlingame home in 2026 wrote, “She sold our Burlingame house in less than two weeks.” She also has the full backing of NextGen Properties, which lists 12 agents on its team page.
Samantha Huang is a Mandarin and Cantonese-speaking Realtor in Burlingame who helps Chinese-speaking families buy and sell single family homes on the Peninsula. She founded and leads NextGen Properties at Corcoran Icon Properties, and as she puts it in her website bio, “As a first-generation Chinese American, Samantha is fluent in Cantonese, Mandarin, and English.”
This page covers her featured Burlingame sales and listings, her video tours of Burlingame Park, Easton Addition and the downtown area, client reviews, current market numbers and the local rules that shape a Burlingame purchase. Every figure links to its source.
Why Samantha Huang Is a Strong Choice for Chinese-Speaking Families in Burlingame
Many Burlingame purchases are family decisions. Parents may prefer to talk through price, disclosures and inspections in Mandarin or Cantonese while adult children read the contract in English. Samantha handles both conversations herself, so nothing gets lost between generations. She pairs that with recent Burlingame results: a $2,600,000 sale on Capuchino Ave in February 2026 and a two-home new-construction listing on Linden Ave.
What Makes Burlingame Real Estate Different
Burlingame is a small city with very little for sale at any one time. In October 2026 there were 10 active single-family listings and 0.7 months of inventory, per MLSListings. Buyers who wait for the perfect listing can wait a long time, so preparation matters more here than in larger markets.
- Lots and layouts matter. 1410 Capuchino Ave paired a 1,220 sq ft main house with a detached studio on a 6,000 sq ft lot, per its listing page.
- Trees are protected. The city treats private trees with a trunk circumference of 48 inches or more as protected, and removal requires an application and an inspection by a City Arborist, per the City of Burlingame urban forest page. That can affect remodel and addition plans.
- City limits vs. county. Burlingame Hills is unincorporated San Mateo County, per San Mateo LAFCo.
- Schools vary by address. The Linden Ave listing record lists the San Mateo Union High School District and Burlingame High, and Samantha walks through Lincoln Elementary, Burlingame Intermediate and Burlingame High in her Easton Addition video.
What does a Burlingame real estate specialist do?
A Burlingame specialist knows which streets sit near Burlingame Avenue, Broadway and the Caltrain stations, how tree rules and lot size affect a home's potential, and how fast well-priced homes move. Samantha adds a second layer: she can explain each of those points to Mandarin and Cantonese-speaking family members in their own language. Her Capuchino Ave sale and Linden Ave listing below show that work in practice.

These are featured Burlingame sales and listings from her sold and active listings. They are featured examples, not a complete record of her Peninsula work.

Samantha Huang's Take on Buying and Selling in Burlingame
Samantha films her Burlingame listings and neighborhoods on her YouTube channel. A few lines from those videos show how she reads the market.
“This is not a market driven by trends. It is a market built on fundamentals.”
Samantha Huang, Two New Burlingame Homes That Give You Flexibility and Long Term Value, April 29, 2026
On long-term value: in the same Linden Ave video she points to the walk to Burlingame Avenue, the farmers market and Washington Park.
On what buyers pay: in May 2025 she said Burlingame's median home price was “soaring past 2.5 million” (Why People Still LOVE Living in Burlingame, CA in 2025, May 4, 2025). MLSListings put the October 2026 single-family median at $3,510,000, so prices have moved higher since that video.
On numbers: “My favorite is numbers. I want you to know exactly what you put in and what you get out,” she says in a seller video comparing an as-is sale with updating first (October 30, 2026). She brings the same approach to Burlingame sellers deciding if a home should be prepared before listing.
“She sold our Burlingame house in less than two weeks.”
