We met you the first week of September for your guidance to buy a new property and sell our existing one. Your out of the box suggestions helped us when we first approached you to help us with sale of our property and a subsequent purchase of another one in San Jose. Your suggestions helped us decide to go immediately for a purchase of a San Jose property believing the market was moving towards a buyers’ market and later consider a sale or renting of our older one. Additionally, we did see our current (new) home immediately with you in early September. Your advice on a property in Trestlewood ln. was timely. It helped us avoid pursuing a property despite its apparent appeal. This helped us understand your integrity. Later, your first and subsequent offers over Belington st. property was convincing and correct. You understood our financial limitation as well as capacities. You did not chase the markup of the property in spite of us wanting the property. It helped us avoid a hyper bidding scenario when I believed in a real estate slow down during that timeframe. This convinced us about your negotiating capabilities and patience. Finally, when we were about to make an offer for our current new home, your due diligence in figuring out the logistics in spite of it being a convoluted transaction due to ‘abstract judgement’ convinced that you were the person we would go with for the offer and contractual engagement for our new home.Print this entry

Being first time home buyers with very little clue about the dynamics of the market and the various steps involved, it was imperative that we work with a knowledgeable real estate professional who could provide an honest and objective view of the market and also guide us in a professional manner through the various stages.We found all this and much more with Amar and his team. Right from day one, he took time to understand what we were looking for and listened patiently to everything we had to say. Once we found a property that we liked, Amar and his team went into overdrive and put together a comprehensive offer within our specified budget. Since it was a very competitive bid with 30+ offers and we were nowhere near the higher offer prices, we normally would have been hesitant to even make the offer. But Amar’s strategy was spelt out so clearly to us that we trusted him completely and his words proved right when our offer was indeed accepted over multiple higher ones. This happened because of Amar’s proactive interaction with sellers as well as involvement of the rest of Amar’s extended team including the lenders. Both Amar and Sri always communicated with us about any updates and kept us in the loop throughout Not only did Amar recover a significant amount from the seller towards closing but he also proactively negotiated a huge price drop post contract! This was without us even asking him to try it.That was the icing on the cake. At the end of the day what worked for us was Amar and Sri’s relentless drive and energy as they moved the process along with minimal stress to us. If it weren’t for that my family would not be relaxing in our new home today. I’d recommend Amar, Sri and team in a jiffy. Nobody knows the bay area market as well as them. Thank you team!

Over the past 25 years we have purchased several properties around the country and have worked with several professional agents that provided good service. Recently we purchased a home in the most competitive market in the country – the bay area. However, this was the best and most seamless experience for us. The main reason for this was Amar Amarnath our Realtor®. Amar provided the most comprehensive service we have ever seen. It includes: • Advicing us about the Bay Area, its school systems, the commute and neighborhoods • Showing us a very good selection of houses and educating us about the choices and pros and cons of the choices • Helping us put together a good offer and driving the best deal for us through effective negotiations without entering into a bidding war • Personally staying involved in ALL areas (Appraisal, Loan, Escrow process, insurance, and closing) • Co-ordinating efforts with WFC and Escrow to ensure loan closing In my opinion, Amar is the most professional, capable, intelligent and hard working agent we have ever known. More importantly he is a decent and kind human being who is easy to like and get along with and one who operates with the highest level of honesty, integrity and trust. We are planning to refer Amar to all of our friends and we plan to stay connected to him as a friend for a lifetime and would work with him every time we have a real estate transactions.

When we inherited 2 properties from our father, we were presented with the task of renovating and selling the properties. We were all somewhat inexperienced and felt overwhelmed by the task. We considered selling the properties ‘as is’, but decided to do some research and that is how we found Amar. Amar had sold a property at one of the complexes concerned at a very surprising selling price. He also had a long list of tremendous reviews. From the very beginning, Amar was clear in his communication. He had a great deal of knowledge about what buyers in Silicon Valley are looking for. He coordinated referrals with contractors and gave us building supply sources. He was detailed and quick to respond to every question and concern. When it was time to list the property, he clearly understood the best strategy to draw multiple interested buyers. He was very skillful in his negotiation and kept us well informed throughout the process. In addition, he refused to represent the buyer, as he doesn’t want a conflict of interest to the seller, even though that would increase his personal commission. Amar, through hard work and determination, achieved a record price for our property, with reliable buyers, which was 171,000 over asking price!! He negotiated and executed a quick and painless escrow process, which ended in an early and successful close of escrow. We count ourselves lucky to have found Amar and give him the highest recommendation. Print this entry

When I first contacted Amar to sell my home I immediately had confidence in him. Amar did not let me down; he was personally involved with all aspects of the sale of my home, kept me informed during the process and provided me with excellent advice. The most comforting thing about Amar was that he was always available. He kept me feeling assured and stress-free. I would highly recommend Amar as an agent. Print this entry

Anurag Dikshit | Engineer September 27, 2014, Anurag was Amar’s client -- Sep 2014

We were new home-buyers and expected to purchase in a few months. Process had been pretty swift and we were able to close-out the deal close to two months of time. Amar had been prompt in responding and assisting. The interactive property search website was easy to browse and had better details than other websites in the internet. Request to view property were timely. e-document signing process during bidding & contracts was organized and had been a BIG time-saver. It is better that buyer does some home-work and be prompt in making various decisions. In spite of that we did some self-study, there were times we might have been getting off-track. Amar and his team were prompt to keep us on the right track based on their extensive bay-area real-estate experience and prevailing market-demands. Besides home-buying, escrow signing process, Amar’s team also recommends competitive bank loans, home insurance and home-warranty at the right time.If needed, any recommendation could also be provided for the property-repairs. Overall discussion process has been prompt, clear, direct, friendly and polite. Not only above-state reasons, Amar also offers genuine advice to buyers for building long-term real-estate portfolio. I highly recommend potential buyers to choose Amar’s team for real-estate services. Print this entry

We were fortunate to have worked with Amar in our recent selling of our home in Milpitas, our experience was priceless. CONSULTATION: Our journey started with an initial walk through of the house with Amar and he suggested changes, modifications and renovations that could help the selling process. Then with Amar’s help we could hire the right contractor for the job. PREPARATION:Amar always checked-in during this process and guided us in every step, many a times helping us to make the correct choices when we were lost or confused. I am not sure any other agents would go this deep in the preparation process with the sellers. “ failure to plan is planning to fail “ – I feel other Realtors® fail here, but NOT the case with Amar. Amar and his team manages a listing strategy spreadsheet. This gave me an overview of the home listing and selling process which helped everyone to be on the same page. STAGING/PRESENTATION: Amar made the process incredibly easy like having a pro come and give us staging tips, having professional photographs/Videos/3D Tour taken, high quality flyers and a lot more. When we saw our listing we were blown away. His hard work and knowledge of what it takes to sell a home really paid off – our listing looked amazing and knocked out the competition. MARKETING: Amar unleashed the immense social networking contacts and strategy that with-in couple of days we were the “#1” home in Zillow for similar homes in Milpitas, 4K+ views and 200+ favorites and 7K+ views in Redfin – it was soon to be “HOT”. We watched from a distance that the marketing is showing very positive results. OFFER: This was really stress free for us as sellers but a very long day for Amar. We had 21 offers, most of them way over the asking price and many with no contingencies. Amar could later drive the multiple offer situation with ease, while being completely transparent, He negotiated the best offer over 10% above the asking price in a not so great market. CLOSURE: It does not end here, Amar’s work is incomplete until we reach the finish-line. We constantly keep in touch and Amar informs us of the development in the closing process. Amar was always there to answer our questions and elevating our concerns. Bottomline, Amar “OWNED” the transaction and put immense focus on it. Amar is a smart and genuine real estate agent. He is like a family and works as hard as he can for you. Throughout the transaction Amar was transparent and professional. I would HIGHLY recommend Amar and his team, especially if you want someone who will go above and beyond for you, someone who truly knows what they are doing, and someone who truly cares about you as individuals. He has a truck load of experience, immense confidence, highly talented in his job – he is the companion you are looking for if you want to do any real estate transaction in bay area.

We are so happy to write this review for Amar and Sri! We contacted Amar when we decided to buy the house, and we met in his office. Right away, we knew that he is the best realtor we have spoken to. He was very thorough in his process and explained to us all our options. We started seeing houses regularly, and Sri helped us understand the pros/cons of each of the houses. Finally, within four weeks of our house search, we put an offer which got accepted! Not just that, he negotiated $48k below the listing price through his exceptional skills. I had never heard of a single-family house going below the listing price in the bay area. Still, Amar made it happen so that we don’t go beyond our budget. He also provided extraordinary support during the closing process. We were first-time home buyers, so everything was new for us, so he gave us a step-by-step guide on what needs to be done. I don’t think we could have had a better experience anywhere else. Amar and Sri are genuinely the most honest and best realtors I have seen. Thank you, Amar and Sri, for the WOW experience in our buying process. I hope to work with you again in buying or selling more houses. Print this entry
