The experience of selling our house with Steve was extremely pleasant and smooth. It took less than 7 weeks from the first contact with Steve to closing the escrow because of smart strategy and flawless execution with every step well planned and coordinated. Steve has a very good understanding of the housing market in the Bay Area, especially Saratoga, and was able to come up with an excellent strategy and communicate to us effectively. He is also excellent at executing the strategy and drive his team to deliver everything timely with high quality. Steve took over our house in early February, and he was able to get the house cleaned, painted, staged with yard trimmed in two weeks and put it on market; and we got multiple excellent offers well above listing price after just one open house and found the right buyer who is the perfect fit for our beloved home! We are very happy to see a bea…

We are very happy to see a beautiful family who would cherish the house and Saratoga community moving in this property. Steve is a true pleasure to work with – he is warm, charming, responsive, with sharp business sense and great sense of humor. He is excellent at communication and very responsive; although we are in Asia and have not even met with him or his team in person, he is always available to address our questions by phone or email, kept us involved in all the plan, engaged us in decision making of every step, and updated us on the progress. His ability to conduct super effective open house, negotiate with the potential buyers and their agents, and close the final deal is very impressive. And he is also very honest and keeps all his promises. If you have a house in Saratoga and is thinking of selling it, we would strongly recommend Steve – your house will be in good capable hands with “the Power of Steve”!

Steve was an outstanding Realtor® on several fronts. First, Steve saw value in our property that we did not see. His understanding of the area and the market was the first step in convincing us he knew the local market. The second part was that the data he provided backed up his claims. His homes sold for more than the asking price and among the highest per SF amounts (although square footage is not the only metric). He saw a significantly higher value in our property than many other Realtor® and this was a strong factor in our choice. Steve's full service and paying for staging, inspections, dump hauls, and so on, made it easy and fast to get all these tasks done with a minimum of hassle His support team was well versed in what he wanted and was fast and efficient. Another important factor was selling 100% as is. Again, this minimized the level of effort, expense, and wasted time on eve…

Another important factor was selling 100% as is. Again, this minimized the level of effort, expense, and wasted time on everybody's part. Whereas some Realtor® suggested a new outside paint job and this would have taken 1-2 weeks elapsed time, Steve read the market correctly and determined that this enhancement or any others would not pay back in kind. Lastly, but very importantly, we found that we worked well with Steve. He is friendly, efficient, dependable, and nice to deal with. He was always available for a question. And, finally, Steve did was he said he was going to do. We had a fast, well-organized, and fairly smooth selling process (as much as one can have in the selling of a home). I think in choosing Steve you'll have a similar experience.

After interviewing some top local brokers, we selected Steve to sell the family homestead we enjoyed in the golden triangle for the last 55 years. Looking back, we are very happy with our decision. Steve delivered on everything he said he would - from personally guiding the preparation of our home for sale, to selling it 100% as is, securing post-sale occupancy, meeting our sale price expectations, and coordinating a seamless closing process. Steve's support team of contractors and stagers were all extremely professional and delivered high-quality work. Steve was adamant about not investing time or money in unnecessary improvements and we never felt pressured to do so. Steve laid out an action plan to sell our house and executed it flawlessly, even when a couple of curve balls were thrown his way! In short, everything went as Steve said it would - with all our expectations met. Steve is …

In short, everything went as Steve said it would - with all our expectations met. Steve is a very active broker in Saratoga and we were a little bit concerned that he may not be able to maintain a high level of personal attention to our sale. We shouldn't have worried - anytime we reached out to Steve he was readily available and fully responsive to our questions. He personally drove the entire process the whole way and never handed us off to someone else to work with. We certainly recommend Steve to anyone selling a house in Saratoga and would absolutely have no hesitancy in engaging him again.
