Why a team approach?

We work together because it benefits out clients, both sellers and buyers,in multiple ways:

Two professionals are familiar with your transaction, and one is always available to you, to prospective buyers and to their agents.

For Sellers: We host our own open houses which insures that you are well represented and that prospective buyers and agents get immediate and well informed answers to their questions. It also helps provide security for your home.

For Buyers: You have two agents touring regularly with you in mind. We have vision, an eye for value, and the ability to recognize potential.

Selecting A Real Estate Agent

When selecting a real estate agent to help with your home sale or purchase, you'll want to evaluate the agent's background, strengths and philosophy.

The relationship between client and agent is a brief, intense, deeply personal one, ideally leavened with calmness, a sense of humor and, above all, trust.

We work as a team when representing sellers because we are committed to providing the highest level of service throughout the transaction. One of the skills most valued by our clients is the ability to listen and counsel during the often complex process of buying or selling.

We limit ourselves to a handful of active clients at any time so that each receives the attention they require.

In addition to being among Prudential's top real estate sales people, we each have a fun and fulfilling life outside the real estate arena.

If you would like to talk about buying real estate or selling your home, please call us at Prudential California Realty, Piedmont, 510-428-0900 or email to either Vickie or Aleso.
