As a resident living in the beautiful East Bay for over 36 years, I am grateful to be a part of this vibrant and welcoming community.
As a real estate professional for over 20 years, this career has been very fulfilling. I feel honored and grateful to have built such a trusting clientele, which has allowed me to grow my business through referrals. For me, real estate encompasses many aspects of day-to-day life. Situations such as purchasing a family home, dealing with a job transfer, or making an investment may arise. Unexpected events such as the loss of a parent may happen as well, necessitating the sale of a home. For others, it is a matter of finding the right rental to live in. I have been able to negotiate and advocate for so many clients, assuring that we met their goals and made the real estate process feel seamless.
For a seller, it is important for me to listen and understand their needs, both financial and emotional. This is crucial as it enables me to provide sound advice and address all questions pertaining to your situation. My suggestions and recommendations are focused on ensuring the best financial outcome.
Preparation is key for every owner and may require more time based on your needs. In some situations, a home may have been well-maintained over the years and will need very little work. For others, it may be selling a parent's home with years of accumulated belongings. In this case, I oversee and manage every detail by setting up estate sales, hiring qualified professionals to address any work to be performed, and keeping the seller informed throughout the process. By doing so, the seller is not burdened, thus alleviating any stress that can be associated with the home sale. Some sellers may need to reach out to tax attorneys or accountants for advice. I can provide very solid resources if needed in addressing these ever-changing California tax laws.
For a buyer, making the decision to purchase a home is one of the biggest financial decisions of a lifetime. Real estate transactions can feel intimidating, which is why I make it a top priority to consider the needs of each client. There are a host of needs specific to each buyer, such as location, nearby schools, convenience to transportation, city amenities, and more, which should be considered while working within their budget. Over the years, I have been fortunate to meet and work with very reputable lenders and escrow officers to make the buying transaction seamless and exciting!
In summary, I look forward to assisting you with any and all of your real estate needs!
