We are a full service licensed brokerage operating in Monterey, San Benito, San Mateo, Santa Clara and Santa Cruz Counties. We are Realtors whose services and operating philosophies are geared primarily towards buyers. Unlike most other agencies, we rebate a substantial portion of our commission to our clients who have purchased homes from us in the past.

If you go to an open house, it is important to let the listing agent know that you are working with another Realtor.
We encourage open house visits.
Open houses are fun, casual, and a good way to learn more about the local housing market.
You can tour homes at your own pace, and develop a better understanding of price variations.
Remember the agent showing the house works for the seller.
Don't give up any information that may compromise future negotiations.
For example, the listing agent doesn't really need to know how desperate you are to find a house or that the house you are visiting is the perfect home for you.

Most "For Sale by Owners" (FSBO's) will cooperate in the sale of their property with a real estate agent.
Their goal in marketing the property without an agent's help is usually to avoid paying the typical listing agent's 5% or 6% commission rate.
After placing their "For Sale by Owner" sign on the lawn, sellers may receive several calls from agents claiming to have interested buyers.
The agent usually asks the seller to sign a listing agreement, however, before presenting an offer.
Since we never list properties, our goal in contacting a FSBO is simply to find the best property for our buyer.
