Dear Amar and Sri Amar, We are incredibly thankful to you both for your extraordinary efforts in winning our house in a very tough competition. We realized that to win an offer needs deep knowledge in the market, connections, the right strategy, negotiation skills, and you are at the top in all of those aspects. Within two months, we could win the house, and that’s just my second offer. We should highlight that Sri Amar helps explain and clarify all our doubts in the process. Right from winning the offer, you executed the plan quickly, and we never felt stressed anywhere in the process. Our strong recommendation to any of our friends is that, if you are serious about buying a house, don’t waste time. Just go to Amar. He will win your dream home for you.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.

Home buying experience can really be confusing and exhilarating, especially for the first time buyers. Gladly we had Amar and Sri with us so it was an amazing experience for us. We are a proud homeowner of a beautiful house in this foreign land. I still can’t believe that everything happened so fast and I was really able to buy a house in a record time. Amar and Sri played the pivotal role in it and we will always be grateful for that. We had just started looking for the house when I contacted Amar on Zillow. He was prompt in calling back and discussing pros and cons of that house. We went to meet him on September 28th and we got the possession of our house on October 31st. We never ever imagined that everything will be done at such a pace. Amar was there to guide us at every step starting from getting the pre-approval for loan to getting the possession and even after that. He is a very methodological person and that makes the process so smooth. I must acknowledge his speed and negotiation skills. He got us that deal for unbelievable $50K under the list price. The best part was that he and his team was taking care of everything. We thank him from the bottom of our heart for convincing the seller for this deal. Amar and his team gave us assurance at every step and updating us at regularly. They were always tying on top of every activity in the entire process to make sure end process is accomplished as smooth as possible. I must say Amar is very focused and dedicated and has immense knowledge about the market. I would highly recommend Amar and his team if you want to have a wonderful experience. He has a great team for everything. You think it, he has it. Wishing him the all the best in helping home buyers like us, buy their dream homes, Thank you once again for everything. You all went above and beyond so that we can get our dream house. Print this entry

“Stressful”, “frustrating”, “tough” – these are some of the words that usually come to one’s mind when one thinks about buying one’s first home. We have been hunting our first home for the past 6 months, but with no luck. Multiple offers submitted, few got counters and nothing accepted. We were also waiting for our first kid to arrive this summer. Life was chaotic at best until we bumped into Amar (through one of our friends at LinkedIn). From our very first conversation with Amar, we could feel the difference between him and other agents we have been working with. Amar came across somebody who has in-depth knowledge of the Bay Area real-estate market and knows how to win in pressure situations. He was very very cooperative in understanding our requirements and guiding us through various areas. With multiple set-backs, we had very little hope about buying it in this aggressive market. Amar assured us that he would try his level best and there is nothing to be worried about. He has a calming presence which soothes the buyers and gives them this peace of mind. Couple of days after submitting our offer, to our surprise Amar came back to us with our offer accepted!!! We are the winners of fierce competition (10 offers) and our offer is not the highest offer. Finally, we settled in a nice corner unit in the heart of Sunnyvale. That was the first one we were working with Amar. We loved the home, its lay out and its neighbourhood. Amar worked really hard behind the scenes and added that personal touch in negotiating the deal for us. Besides, he was at the fore front of each and every stage of the home buying and saved lot of money in the process. Staying at top of things, he also made us understand the various aspects of being a home owner. He worked with the loan officer, escrow officer, selling agent, appraisal officer, insurance agent and a whole bunch of people to close the deal in less than 15 days. The speed at which Amar works is truly unbelievable. With him around, one does not need to worry about a thing. Sometimes, I feel that one has 24 hours in a day, but Amar has 30 hours in a day. The amount of stuff he manages to get done is remarkable. One has to meet and work with him to truly understand and experience it. Basically, Amar is a really nice person and lovely to work. He has his heart in this profession and brings the human aspect in the things he does. I can’t recommend enough about Amar’s contribution in fulfilling our dream of being a home owner. He is a ROCKSTAR! Print this entry

First of all thanks a ton for helping me to get my desired house. I really liked that way you execute things, professional per-say. I remember when we first spoke over the phone giving me the tips and tools to find a desired house. I was totally inclined that you are one who can get me the desired house. The very good thing that I liked about you is you help people without expecting anything from them. This is pure and unconditional service. I wanted to write a story about my home buying experience. Trust me, for me it was a dream-come-true. All my friends and relatives were shocked as within 1 month of my house hunt I got a dream house which I wanted. This happened only because of your Midas-touch. I have seen Realtors® placing an offer for the house knowing that there will not get it; this is like shooting arrows in thin air. You were not like that, the way I have seen. It was a perfect project executing giving you 110% hard work. I still remember your email early morning at 5:30 AM enquiring about the hazard insurance, flood coverage and suggesting me the option available. For me this is what is called as pure unconditional service. The way I see, I think for me you are a magician with lots of confidence and you bring all the team together and execute a plan with sure shot accuracy. I have not seen any Realtor® working with the loan officer while placing an offer. Finally I recommend your name to all my friends and family members for your excellent work. Print this entry

As a first-time homebuyer in Bay Area, the whole process of buying a house, bidding can be very overwhelming and stressful. But with the help of Amar, Sri and his team, it couldn’t have been easier and quicker. When we began our home-search, from Yelp we found that many buyers in Bay Area are in similar condition greatly helped by Amar and his team. We met Amar at his Palo Alto office where he explained the entire process, his custom search engine for homes and also answered the questions we have about bidding and closing on home, how to consider property valuation. Amar also introduced us to his wife Sri who works with him and also to his lender (Risha), who was quick enough to get us a pre-approval letter. They have amazing modus operandi where home buying is divided into tasks and executed meticulously. We never though that we will end-up being homeowners so quickly. Amar worked really hard to get our offer accepted. Amar got all the paperwork ready to put in an offer for the house by making an informed decision on the offer price. He worked till midnight for negotiating with seller agent and got our offer accepted. Ever after offer got accepted, Amar and Sri worked with loan officer, insurance team to make sure we will close in short span of 21 days. Thank you, Amar and Sri, for being so cooperative, kind and humble to us in the whole process and making us the proud owner of our first home in Bay Print this entry

“Just like any couple, home buying process seems like a nightmare in Silicon Valley. Our journey to look for a house started with many apprehensions and qualms. We got introduced to Mr. Amar Amarnath at one of the events in Silicon Andhra. His utmost humility caught our attention and encouraged us to work with him. Within a duration of 3 months he streamlined several issues required for home buying process, enabling us to move progressively. Despite having the challenges of multiple bids, over bids and time pressure, he went out of the way to help us buy our dream house. He personalized this experience by interacting with residents in the neighborhood to get inputs and involving every member of the family to ensure our happiness. Finally, we landed in our dream home, cherishing every moment with our family. Our special thanks and gratitude to Mr. Amar and his entire team for making this beautiful dream come true. We would recommend Mr. Amar for his diligence, sincerity and excellent customer service……..making home buying a pleasurable experience.” Shanti & Laleeta Print this entry

The Extra Mile: That’s how we’d sum our experience with Amar. As a first time home buyer with a demanding job, purchasing a home seemed like a daunting task. We were amazed how Amar mastered knowing our needs in detail, and immediately found options that were perfect for us, both personally and financially. Within a month, we managed to make an offer, close, and move in to our first home. We’ve been thrilled with our choice ever since. Amar started with us from ground zero that is from getting pre-approval, introducing most sought out neighborhood in Menlo Park, showing the best schools in California, detailed information about the neighborhood like safety, what the neighborhood means for the kids. Amar connected me to loan officer, Jazzy singh, in his team, who was nothing short of stellar in assisting me in the loan process starting from pre-approval to closing the loan despite big obstacles with my specific situation, Amar and Jazzy worked hand in hand to resolve all the issues on time under stressful circumstances. Starting from making an offer, Amar thought through the whole thing very carefully, in spite of the property being in most sought out neighborhood and multiple offers on property for beyond the list price, he got the property $50k less than the list price, he got us the inspection with no cost done, went through the inspection reports and educated how it can be taken care, if it is not for his education and getting 80% discount ($8000) on the termite, we might have lost the property thinking the cost of fixing is enormous. Amar went an extra mile to not only to get the $50K less on the list price under multiple offer situation, but he negotiated to pay a few thousand dollars by the seller, he saved thousands of dollars at the every step of closing the escrow. He worked with loan officer to get $7000 credit. Above that he lined up other things for me like getting the termite done with mere $2500, where the same would’ve coasted $10,500, and also getting other inspections done without me physically there. He not only saved thousands of dollars in the whole transaction but also time, that way I was able to take care of personal life and yet got the best deal of the life. Amar is enthusiastic, energetic, powerful person, with exceptional negotiating expertise, excellent knowledge about the real-estate, and he has huge network of people, which is required to get the steal of a deal, it is like buying a house from Costco or whatever is you favorite whole-seller. Amar is one stop shop for home buying and owning and I will recommend him for anyone. Thank you so much Amar Print this entry
