Who Would Be Representing You

Two Readings on Every House

Debbie studied architecture and has renovated homes herself. On a walkthrough she is not looking at the staging, she is pricing what the next owner will spend. Roof age, what is behind the paint, which repairs are cosmetic and which are structural.

Fernando runs the numbers against everything that has closed nearby, and he does that before you write an offer rather than after the seller counters. He works in English, Portuguese, and Spanish, which matters in this market more than it should.

How This Goes

Simplified in three stages

01

Before You Look

We sit down and work out what you are actually solving for. Price range, timeline, must-haves and deal-breakers, and which communities fit. You get pre-approved with a lender first, because in this market an offer without a letter behind it does not get read. We tell you which lenders our clients have had good experiences with.

02

Finding It and Getting It

You see everything, including what has not hit the public sites yet. When you find the one, we build the offer around your strengths rather than just your number. Then we negotiate, and we keep telling you the truth about what the house is worth while we do it.

03

From Contract to Keys

Inspections, disclosures, title, appraisal, contingency deadlines. There are about forty things that have to happen in order and any one of them can cost you the deal or your deposit. We track them. You will hear from us at every deadline, not only when something goes wrong.
