My wife and I had the pleasure of being introduced to Amar in Feb 2020 by an acquaintance of ours who had previously worked with him. Even before the first discussion, we got a really good feeling regarding his expertise by glancing at the numerous glowing recommendations on LinkedIn. During our first meeting, Amar took the time to patiently explain the home buying process and the current housing market situation. The key process steps and responsible stakeholders were defined early on!

As first time home buyers with a young infant, this was invaluable for us and helped us save valuable time. Then we were put in touch with Sri Amar, who has a wealth of information regarding locality and background information. While we had to put a brief pause in our house search due to COVID-19, Amar and Sri were super understanding and emphasized that safety was first. They helped us to focus on the right area, which met most of our criteria.

As we restarted the process in June, they were responsive and provided a lot of guidance. We did many drive-around (due to Covid-19). Sri Amar provided almost instant feedback on the choices homes we were interested in. She guided us in aspects that we did not even think about – like avoiding busy areas because we had a young one!

The offer process itself was a unique experience. We were able to get a private viewing of our future house 10 hours before offers were due! With a lot of timely discussions with Amar and Sri, we were able to pull all of the info needed to get a good offer in!

The fact that our offer was accepted when there were better/cash offers on the table is a testament to Amar's negotiation skills (total of 13 offers). He fought for us so passionately when even we had given up hope, exhibiting his professionalism at the highest level. Even Amar remarked that this was one of his toughest negotiations in recent times, and he came out on top! (It was a Relocation transaction and very challenging in many ways).

When we saw the email at around midnight congratulating us on our offer being accepted, we could hardly believe it! Our future home awaited us, where we would see our son grow up! If all of this was not enough, Amar's most reliable trick was saved for last. His amazing network of crucial people for the closing process is mind-boggling! He was able to introduce us to the right Mortgage Agent, Insurance Agent, etc.

Amar personally oversaw the process and ensured all of the points of contact reacted accordingly so that we could close on time! He and his team also ensured that we were kept in the loop for all decisions, really ensuring that we worked together. Even after closing, he continued to support us with key contacts for the locksmith, utility changeover, security, etc.

In the end, it worked out for us that we were able to work with Amar! I would highly recommend him and his team to anyone looking to buy (or sell), as they get the job done! We will certainly be returning to Amar for our future need.

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.

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!

Amar & Sri are a great team. They are the best Realtor® if you are serious at the housing market in the competitive bay area. We have worked with them multiple times now, and every single time they beat their performance!

Sri is very knowledgeable about the housing neighborhood and always comes up with excellent locations. She has spent several years in the prime market and has a great knack at suggesting areas.

Amar is very professional and through with the whole home buying and selling process. He takes the stress and anxiety in this process, especially in such a hot bay area market. His negotiations are unbelievable. He has always got us the deal, and that too at a price favorable to us.

Amar & Sri are family to us, and we would keep going to them for any advice and help with our home needs. We strongly recommend to anyone who is looking to find their home and make their dreams come true.

We started looking to buy a new home last September, and the first step was to search for a good or rather best Realtor® in the bay area. Looking for an excellent, aggressive Realtor® as we did not have a pleasant experience with our prior Realtor® when we bought our previous home.

I spoke to Amar, and we instantly connected. Amar has in-depth experience in every aspect of home buying. As soon as I started the conversation, we were able to discuss many things as he would understand buyer's requirements very quickly. He would make strong recommendations on how we should proceed.

Also, Amar was very proactive in suggesting how we should rent our previous home and was very helpful in understanding the rental market. These suggestions are unbiased in any manner. I still remember our first meeting with Amar. We discuss many things which would take several meetings with any other Realtor® ( in my opinion and experience).

Once we decided on the budget and location with Amar's inputs, the formal and professional process started from Amar's team, which first started with Sri Amar. Sri Amar is immensely down to earth and understands every aspect of home buying, just like Amar.

Sri Amar makes sure to filter the homes based on our preference. There were instances where I would ask Sri Amar if a particular home is worth visiting. Sri Amar would make sure to get into the details and see if the house is worth visiting. She said NO to many such homes before we found our home.

Sri/ Amar had to make the offer to our current home very aggressively during holiday times (December). We are traveling internationally. Sri/ Amar ensured to work very closely with the sellers and us, negotiate it very aggressively, and get us a good deal. After winning the offer, the next steps executed an optimal way until we got the keys to our new home.

I must say Sri and Amar are great at what they do and are very professional with a personal touch to everything they do 🙂 🙂 It was a great pleasure working with Sri and Amar. If anyone wants seamless home buying experience - now you know whom to go to 🙂 Sri and Amar Realtors®. Thank you, Sri and Amar.

Amar and Sri helped us buy our first home. We were lucky to have their guidance and expertise. They stayed on top of every activity throughout the process, ensuring that we successfully get the house of our dreams.

Amar is a great negotiator. Because of his negotiation skills, our offer was accepted even though it was not the best offer for the seller. Amar used the right strategy focusing on our strengths, and as a result, we were able to win the house. Both Amar and Sri were easily accessible, and just an email/call/text away.

Being first time home buyers, we needed much help, and they always kept us informed and helped us make the right decisions. There are many complicated steps in the process: loan approval, home insurance, home warranty, escrow, and closing.

They were personally involved in every step. They helped us get the best possible service. With their help, we were able to get a low-interest rate from a well-known lender. They even helped us get the best possible insurance and warranty policy. The escrow process also went super smoothly.

They worked tirelessly in the background for our success, ensuring that we do not have to worry about anything. In my opinion, it was a perfect execution, and I would highly recommend Amar and Sri.

Thank you, Amar & Sri, for helping us get our dream home. When we first contacted Amar in May, we were clueless about the home buying process. Without his help and guidelines, we could not have reached this milestone. We were doubtful if it was the right decision to buy a house amidst the pandemic and Shelter-in-place.

After talking to Amar about our concerns and expectations, he gave us a clear picture of the process. He explained all the steps and how he and Sri will be involved in each step. He connected us to a lender who could close the sale in 21 days. We realized this is important for sellers to close the house in as little time as possible.

Sri helped us find our perfect home. She guided us to find a home that fit our current need and will also be a good investment for the future. We realized that there is much more to a home than newly remodeled cabinets and kitchen. It is all about LOCATION! There were many evenings when we talked for hours about different properties. She gave us clear insight into why some properties are not right for us.

Finally, we found a property with everything that we looked for, and Sri gave us the green flag. Amar explained the disclosures of the house very well to us. He presented a clean offer to the seller and negotiated a good deal for us by working around the clock. We got the house with new furniture all at list price, which was 30K less than what the seller expected.

Even after moving into the house, Amar and Sri continued to help us to sort out everything. We are grateful to have known them, and we appreciate all their efforts in helping us land in a beautiful home.

My husband and I had a great experience working with Amar and Sri. We were looking for our 1st home in the Bay area. Being a first time home buyer, we were extra cautious looking for a Realtor® who could help us in our journey to find our dream home. That’s when we came across Amar and Sri. We just contacted them through Zillow and immediately we got the confirmation of our first e-meet.

Amar’s first email started with a line, “HOMEOWNERSHIP is the partnership and commitment between the Realtor® and Buyer.” This resonated with us a lot. That’s when we realized we have picked the right people to work with.

Amar walked us through the entire home buying process step by step. He put together an extremely organized strategy with his Real Estate partner Sri. He was thorough with the entire process starting from market research until closing. He emphasized on TEAMWORK and ensured everyone’s contribution was on time to close on our dream home.

Sri would discuss every house we came across in the market and point out the pros and cons of them. She was always so cheerful yet very technical. She patiently worked with us to choose the right home in terms of its value. She went deep into knowing what exactly we are looking for and intersected with her vision of what we should be looking for, in terms of value of a property, its locality and other technical aspects.

Amar and Sri did a wonderful job explaining the initial disclosure and eventually helping us put together a good offer. He did a fantastic job negotiating with the seller thereby keeping everyone happy. They were personally involved in all areas viz. Escrow process, Loan, and closing. It was sheer teamwork and their experience that helped us to finish the entire process from finding the right home until close within 22-23days.

We thoroughly enjoyed working with Sri and Amar and we would highly recommend them.

It has been a great experience working with Sri, Amar and their team. Starting with making us comfortable by easing into the process and ensuring to adjust to work with our pace,when needed thrusting the necessary force to make things happen says a lot about their team’s experience in how to ensure the clients are treated uniquely and still deliver.

A lot has been said in the recommendations about the negotiations skills that Amar brings to the table, I can conform to that but also add the thoughtful planning he goes through giving that necessary time and effort that brings out multitude of options from his playbook to ensure the best to your client.

My recent home selling experience with Amar's services was remarkable. Amar's team helped through the entire selling process from initial selling consultancy to closing. The team suggestions were valuable and guaranteed the returns with a higher selling price.

Amar provides end to end service and helps that is hard to find. The team put dedication to details on Staging, photography, 3D Walk-in-Tour, Floor plan, Premier Videos, etc., which would give the buyer more confidence.

Due to the fantastic efforts, the team pulled off an excellent offer in just a few days of listing. Without Amar’s extraordinary marketing reach and agent networking, it would have been impossible to get multiple incredible offers, particularly during the pandemic.

Amar negotiated offer price is way above my expectations and extremely happy for the results. Till the close of the sale, it was seamless with a precise tracking at every step throughout the process. I never thought selling a home would be so simple. I recommend other sellers to experience it for themselves.

Amar has been very clear in the process of home buying. In our first meeting itself, he explained every step in detail. We loved his work ethic, where we established that Sri, Amar, and we all need to agree to go ahead with the offer. Amar and Sri were always available to have a word and answer any questions that we have.

They made sure we completely understand and are satisfied with the answers. We were impressed by Sri’s knowledge of the neighborhoods and the investment perspective she gave us. She poured her heart to make sure we were buying the right home for the best price. It gave us so much confidence in our decision to buy home. We were stunned by Amar’s negotiation skills, and because of it, we were able to beat the cash offer and win our dream home.

Amar has an excellent team. Everyone stayed on top of their responsibility in closing this deal on time. I will recommend Amar and Sri to all my friends interested in buying a house as they will be in safe hands. We sincerely appreciate all your efforts in winning the best deal and home for us. Thank you so much, Amar and Sri.

Our home buying experience was excellent with Amar, Sri, and their team. From the time of our first appointment, Amar explained to us the whole home buying process and we knew who the stakeholder is at every point. After finding a home that we liked, Amar and Sri helped us navigate the whole process right from visiting the house in a safe and timely manner to closing home.

We trusted Amar's team while moving forward with the loan process, warranty & insurance and all the steps involved. Each person Exceeded our expectations in helping us through the process. It was a one-stop solution all Real Estate needs. We were able to buy our first home within a time of 4 months, and we thank Amar and Sri and his entire team for the fantastic help !!!!

I met Amar at an open house a couple of years back when I was casually looking around houses. He came across as a very simple down to earth person, very approachable. At the beginning of the year 2020, we got serious about home buying and decided to go with Amar as our agent. I am glad I got to work with Amar and Sri. Sri guided us a lot in particular with location, feedback about the positive and negative of every house we looked at.

Our home buying process was during the Covid-19 pandemic, and for every tour, we did Sri made sure we had a safe slot to tour the houses. This was particularly important for us as we had a toddler. Amar able to WIN the home before the offer due date without competing with other offers.

Amar has a well-structured set of milestones defined for a buyer to follow through on, which helps us anticipate what to expect next. They also ensured that once closing is done, we finished the transfer of utilities etc. Overall, I am glad we chose Amar and Sri as our Realtors® and looking forward to working with them in the future.

We cannot express how thrilled we are of having Amar and Sri by our side in this fantastic journey of buying our first home. Being the first generation in the US, we were clueless about the essential steps to consider before entering the market. We are glad that we met Amar during one of the open houses. After meeting Amar and going through various stages, we felt completely relaxed knowing that there will be an expert who can provide us with the right guidance.

Sri has guided us various times in helping us make the correct decision in choosing the right home in a prime location where home value is appreciated. Amar has helped us in going through the disclosure documents and explained to us thoroughly.

There were many higher offers than ours, and we completely lost hope, but Amar has negotiated well and helped us win the home of our dream. Amar and his team were always available to answer any questions. They were a great help throughout the home buying process, including getting the pre-approval to getting the house key.

Buying a home is a big decision, and going through the entire process could be tedious. However, Amar has made the whole process very smooth. We felt like we had a family member by our side in this journey rather than a Realtor®. We will recommend Amar and Sri to everyone.

This is about Amar and Team who were instrumental in making our dream come true to be the proud first time home buyer in Bay Area. In my whole review process, I want to highlight the dates as it’s highly important to look at the effectiveness, planning, process-driven, speed of execution, and the result-driven team that any buyer would like to wish for it.

It was on Dec 14th, when I first found about Amar from a listing and decided to hit the button to reach out, and to my surprise, in no time he responded and we had a brief conversation about my home buying situation. It was then the Christmas Holiday week where no one works, Amar was kind enough to work late on a Saturday (Dec 22nd) late evening to meet us for the first time and explain the home buying process literally from A to Z as we knew nothing.

On Sunday, Dec 23rd, without caring about the holiday or Christmas break, he drove all the way just to be with us to see a home that I sent him a message the previous night. We liked the home and decided on Sunday, Dec 22nd night to offer and informed Amar by email on Sunday, Dec 23rd late night. From here on are the most amusing part about how Amar and team made this happen and all these during the Christmas Holiday.

Home Offer and Acceptance: Unlike other agents, Amar always puts himself into buyer situation and does thorough analysis/inspections before saying to yes for any offer. He formed a dedicated team and performed all necessary checks such as location analysis, comparable in the area, direction, litigation and all sorts of technical evaluations, discussed all of that with us and defined a clear plan and execution process so we got it all completed and decided to offer on Monday, Dec 24th. He worked closely with us, guided us thru the market around the area, value of the home in 6months vs 3yrs and so on and we were amazed with the level of knowledge and information he provided to us in deciding the best offer number.

In this whole offer preparation process, while he has a quite different style of making then offer, he always made sure we have a plan B and plan C to act on which gave us a lot of confidence. Amar negotiation skills are phenomenal as he continued working with the seller agent after submitting the offer and negotiated the whole deal and convinced effectively to the seller side to accept the offer and he made it happen for us.

Thanks for your great work in helping us find the right home Amar, Sri, and the team. Sri has helped assess all the homes and help us understand the pros and cons of each house we were interested in. Thanks for establishing a safe environment for visits during this pandemic.

Amar, you were absolutely fantastic in negotiating the house price to get us the home 30K below the highest bid price. Thank you both for guiding us throughout the entire home buying process. You were available at all times on any day necessary.

Thanks for clearly establishing goals for each individual and driving the strategy to achieve them. It has been a pleasure working with you and hopes to work with you again soon.

When we decided to purchase the home, we had lots of questions related to the purchase. We met Amar at the Palo Alto office. Amar guided us through the steps of the home buying process and gave us everything we needed to get started with the process. He has an excellent team that works tirelessly throughout the home buying process.

As a first time homebuyer, we are always curious about the process and had a lot of questions. This is where Sri Amar comes into the picture. She patiently listened to all our concerns and advised accordingly at each stage of the home buying process. These questions ranged from how zip codes attract a premium, Sri duly answered school districts and bidding process, etc.

Amar and Sri Amar would let the clients do the survey of the property independently. They never forced any opinions on the house and very patient until we are functionally like the house. Once we like, they go through all the disclosures and patiently explain everything in detail. On the offer date, Amar worked with the lender and put forward a competitive offer on the table and got the property that we call our home at a great deal. These were the times when "Shelter-in-place" was announced in CA.

During "Shelter-in-place", there were delays associated with appraisals and Amar kept the seller agent and others in the loop. We were in the housing market for less than a month and Amar helped us to get the property we would call it our home. We were more than happy about closing the deal. In the whole process, we had some great interactions with Sri Amar, who would provide valuable insights.

We are extremely pleased with our home buying process and our association with Amar & Sri Amar. We would definitely recommend Amar and Sri Amar to our friends and family. Thanks for making this come true so early and we appreciate all the efforts put by this efficient team.

Amar and team, First, our heartfelt gratitude for helping us with the purchase of the new home. Beyond our friendship and closeness, the professionalism you and the team have shown amazes me. Knowledge of how the home-buying process works is key to avoiding many misunderstandings in the lengthy and complicated process. Your articulate walk through of the process and clear definition of roles, responsibilities, periodic updates helped us all be on track.

Amar, you always put the team first and that is a great attitude of a leader. I have observed how you firmly view success is not just an individual effort but rather a concerted effort of a team to satisfy customer. The testimony of the execution was very visible even as we made our first bid. By the way, there was that only bid as we sealed it. Seeing your persistence, I was very sure the deal was ours to win and at a well negotiated market price. I have been greatly benefitted by the end-to-end support of this wonderful team. The business staff, the loan team, insurance folks all of them have gone that extra mile to make it happen.

It looked daunting at first to agree to a 21-day closing and the team pulled it through seamlessly. To sum up, my home buying experience was awesome and in my opinion it couldn’t have been better. Thanks again Amar and Team for this great work. I would 100% positively recommend you to any of my friends for your total professionalism and commitment.

We met Amar in his Palo Alto office for the initial consultation on a Friday afternoon and got enrolled to the website portal. In our initial consultation he read our mind and knew what exactly we were looking for.

Sri and Amar are incredibly amazing at what they do. For each property that we were interested in, Sri gave us insights that we would not have found anywhere else. She walked us through all the pros and cons for each property we were sincerely thinking of bidding. All they wanted for us to make a best informed decision. They both made themselves available 24x7.

Amar was personally involved in all the areas right from the beginning till we were finally settled in our new home. He stayed on the top of everything and made sure the buying process was as smooth as possible. It sounds unbelievable but within 2 weeks we bid on the house and with his sharp strategy we got the house too. His coordination with the banker was incredible which made sure that we not only got our offer accepted but also the loan process was smooth.

Last but not the least we started our journey with Amar and Sri as our Realtors® but we ended up with life long friends. We wholeheartedly recommended them.

After six months of fruitless home search and many unaccepted offers with another agent, we came across Amar. Amar noted our requirements and gave us a clear picture of the market. He shared home buying process and encouraged us to stick to the process. Amar clarified our doubts about property selection and busted some of the myths.

We were looking in Milpitas and we found ourselves in a very aggressive market in the first quarter of the calendar year 2020. But Amar and Sri know the market very well. They have a great network in Milpitas area. Amar helped us win the deal amongst many offers. A few were even higher than ours. Amar used his top negotiation skills to make sure we get the deal.

After offer acceptance, Amar and Sri guided us through the closing process. They have a strong network of connections ranging from lenders to insurance providers to contractors. Amar led the whole process and drove his team to complete the closing, keeping us closely involved throughout. Amar made sure he stayed on top of the process.

After closing, Amar and Sri continue to help us with their contacts so that the house move-in goes smoothly. The contacts they suggest offer very competitive prices. We are very happy with the deal we got. We strongly recommend Amar and Sri for people’s real estate needs.

Susan Larsen | SENIOR MANAGER AT CISCO
APRIL 2, 2020, SUSAN WAS A CLIENT OF AMAR

I had an investment property that I needed to get on the market and sell quickly. The property was a difficult property to handle because it had much deferred maintenance and had been neglected for many years. Amar took on this property, creating a far-reaching marketing campaign, presentation, and showing schedule that worked exceptionally well to drive buyer traffic to the property. I needed a cash buyer, and Amar delivered, with multiple cash buyers offering funds, significantly above the ask price.

I’ve bought and sold many properties over the years, but I can honestly say, that I have never worked with an agent who was more attentive, professional, technically versed, and market-wise in his development of strategy and execution. Amar was present, and accessible at all times for all that I needed, from the simple, to the complex questions, and he demonstrated the ultimate respect, know-how, and professionalism that one would want in their real estate agent.

I am grateful to Amar, for taking on my project and I would hope that if you need an agent to make a difference for you in your next project, either in selling or purchasing, you’d consider Amar. He’s my five star agent of choice!

We were fortunate to find Amar and Sri for our home buying process. We were first time home buyers with very little knowledge about how to find the right place. As my wife was pregnant, we were in a desperate need to find a home to welcome our daughter and start a new life with her. It was such a crucial time for both of us but the entire process of home buying was priceless.

We came to know about Amar from online reviews. We first had a one on one session with Amar (highly recommended) where he explained the entire home buying process to us. Sri was very much involved with the initial shortlisting and gave us reasons for choosing a property vs not choosing it. She gave several insights which we otherwise would have struggled to get. This included critical viewpoints of some houses which we shortlisted.

After identifying our dream home within the first month, Amar and Sri put an aggressive offer to the seller on our behalf at a price we were very comfortable with. It was Seller’s first open house; they had many offers and weren't entertaining anyone until they met the price they wanted. But Amar had the perfect strategy planned out to win. Amar and his team worked day and night to win us the offer by convincing the seller.

Amar and Sri were personally involved in all areas, like the Escrow process, loan, and closing the deal. Their guidance was really helpful as not once were we skeptical about any decision that we took. They were always available any time of the day, whether after office hours or during weekends. I remember receiving emails at 4 am in the morning with highly informative process updates.

Thank you, Amar, Sri, and the team, for helping us secure our dream home and start a new phase of our life with our daughter. I would highly recommend you to anyone I come across who needs a buying agent for their home. Once again, thanks a lot for all your efforts; we are proud owners of our dream home now.

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.

Amar and Sri came highly recommended from our friends who had just bought a house and I am glad we decided to work with them. Me and my wife both strongly believe that they made the impossible happen for us.

Amar and Sri got our dream home for us. The entire process was seamless and smoothly executed. Right from the very first meeting we could sense that they had our best interest in mind and were genuinely interested in helping us get the right home. Amar and Sri helped formulate a winning strategy and guided us through all the steps including what to look for in a prospective home & neighborhood, what to avoid, how to approach the seller’s agents etc. A fact we appreciated was that they advised against any house/neighborhood that was not right or safe. After we liked a house they had an indepth discussion with us to make sure we are interested in the property for the right reasons.

Once the ground work was done, they helped us come up with a winning bid and negotiated the best possible deal. We could reach out to Amar or Sri anytime to discuss anything throughout the process including but not limited to shortlisting and reviewing properties, deciding a winning bid, reviewing disclosures, navigating the escrow process, getting a loan and eventually closing on the deal.

We have already recommended them to all our friends and look forward to working with them if we decide to buy another property.

We were first time home buyers and we came to know about Amar & Sri from a close friend. Our home buying experience was a breeze just because Amar and Sri put their heart and soul in this whole process. From wanting to own a home to owning a home took just three weeks.

On one Sun morning we met Amar and explained our requirements and limitations in buying a home. Being an expert Realtor® Amar quickly understood our requirements and guided us by providing valuable feedback on type of house we should target for our budget, areas we should target considering future market appreciation etc. On Mon evening we talked to Sri in detail.

Sri with extensive knowledge in Bay Area neighborhood explained areas good for raising a family, areas with great neighborhood and good houses in market. On Wed Sri guided us to a home, this house met all our requirements, and the neighborhood was impressive. We quickly expressed our interest in this house to Sri.

On Thu Amar took charge and guided in the bidding process. There were 11 bids for the house already. Being an expert strategist, Amar helped us bid 5% less than the least offer and negotiated to make this deal happen. So as a buyer we realized that a good buyer’s agent was not someone who can bid highest and win, but someone who can bid least, negotiate and win. On Fri, it was Diwali eve and we couldn’t be any happier, we had entered into contract with the Seller. On Diwali my friends told us that we were lucky in getting a good house for a lesser price. For an outsider it was luck since they did not see us work hard, but as an insider we attribute our good luck to Amar’s & Sri’s hard work.

Without Amar’s homework on quality of construction, Sri’s understanding of our requirements and guidance to right home, neighborhood & area, and most of all Amar’s negotiation skills in bidding phase, we could not have owned this home. Next the loan processing had to be completed in just two weeks. Suited for our financial and closure situation, Amar guided us to the best lender for Escrow and Bank Loan process. The whole process of Legal and Bank work was executed by Amar, Sri and Team in a quick, effective and smooth fashion. By the end of three weeks, we had the keys to our new home and we were proud owners. I think we got lucky to work with Amar and Sri.

Amar and Sri were not only our buying agent but also our mentors and friends in this whole process. Looking forward to getting guidance from and working with Amar & Sri. Vijay Kumar

Amar & Sri represented us as buyer’s agent. We were looking to buy our first home, and we wanted someone with experience and good negotiation skills to represent us in the competitive bay area real estate market. We chose Amar based on the reviews on various forum and it turned out to be the best decision.

We had initial consultation with Amar and he suggested neighborhoods based on our needs & budget. Sri educated us various aspects of selecting a property and helped us to prioritize the elements that matter to us most. Based initial discussion with Amar & Sri we shortlisted few properties. Sri was really helpful in this and helped us understand pros and cons on each of the property. This helped us rule out certain properties. Once we selected the property Amar was instrumental in drafting the offer and getting it accepted. The property we selected was sold by a relocation agency on behalf of seller and Amar’s expertise & previous experience in dealing with relocation agency helped to navigate this un-usual home buying scenario.

He negotiated hard for us and was able to get the offer accepted less than the list price. After the offer was accepted, Amar & his team’s work was excellent. We got the regular update regarding the various milestones and all the items were executed on time. Finally, on the auspicious day of Dhanteras we got the keys of our first house. As a first-time buyer we were very nervous but with the help of Amar & team our home buying experience was positive.

More than buyer’s agent Amar & Sri were like mentors & friends guiding us through each phase We hope to work with Amar & team again in future.

When we are not completely sure if we are going to purchase a home soon, we had met Amar for an initial conversation. Amar had completely changed our perception and walked us through the entire process.

His attention to details is remarkable. We were convinced to start looking around for the interested homes and visiting open houses. However one day we came across this house in South San Jose, which we really liked it. We had let Amar know about the interest, the first question he had asked us is to go to the house to check the surroundings the next day and also think about the neighborhood thoroughly. Only when we had confirmed that we really liked the neighborhood, that’s when he started the ground work on his end. Within few hours on a Monday morning, he sent us all the documents relating to the house, with thorough summary to make sure there are no surprises.

Amar, Sri and their team worked above and beyond to get all the information to make sure it is eligible to make an offer. Amar is really strategic to make an offer and really worked wonders until it was accepted by the seller! Amar and Sri were communicative for every information they had received during the process, it seemed like the notifications were through an automated bot but it was Amar :). They consider every client as their first client and personally get involved in every step pre, during and post closing of the purchase. They are thoroughly involved and helping for taking the right actions.

Now we have a trusted Realtor® team in the bay area and I’m really confident for my next purchase with Amar, Sri and their team! Thank you!

It was a pleasure working with Amar and Sri for our first home purchase. They made the entire home buying experience a smooth and memorable one for us. In our first meeting, Amar stressed on team work which includes us, the buyers as well. At the end, it was the complete team work that won us the home. Amar's team is a "one stop" shop for home buying. Everyone in the team (Amar/Sri - Realtors®, Narayan - admin, Nicole and team - home loan and Millie - Escrow) played their role to perfection and their professionalism is of the highest quality.

Each member is highly experienced, collaborative, resourceful, and always alert. Whenever a challenging situation presented itself, they knew the corrective course of action and quickly implemented it. They all went above and beyond call of duty to take us to the finish line on-time.

We highly recommend Amar/Sri and their team to anyone who like us are serious about winning competitive bids and close the sale on-time. Amar's excellent negotiation skill and Sri's straight to-the-point advises deserve a special mention. Sri was in constant touch throughout the home search process. Sri educated us on what the target list price should be, which localities we should aim for and made sure we were putting our time and effort on property where our chances of winning was realistic. Sri and Amar reached out to us at key junctures, patiently explained the pros and cons, and readily shared their point of view: all of which greatly helped us with the decision making.

Amar won us a very competitive bid without multiple counter offers and successfully negotiated to have the seller pay a major portion of the closing cost - a perfect deal for us. Few days later the bank appraisal came in and the home was valued above the sale price - a true testament to Amar's extraordinary negotiation skills. Post the offer acceptance, the team worked very hard to close the sale on time.

Personally, we felt it was a huge advantage to work with a close-knit team as they collaborated among themselves to get majority of the work done. This allowed us to give all our time and attention to our son who at the time of purchase was barely a month old—a big thanks to Amar, Sri and team for all their help and care. We will be Amar/Sri's client for lifetime! Oviya and Mani

Hi Amar and Sri, I want to take this opportunity to thank both of you and your wonderful team for making this possible for us. To say the least, it was a breeze working with you. I really appreciate you going above and beyond to make it possible for us, even to the extent of guiding selling agent, who was a newcomer in our case.

You really helped lock this deal for us. Even after we were ready to give up on this house, you kept close contact with selling agent and presented our case in a way that we won this house. Also, your team made the whole process so painless that we didn’t even feel a bit of stress while signing biggest deal of our life.

I would recommend you to anyone I come across who is in need of a buying and selling agent. Once again, thanks a lot for all your efforts, we are proud owners of our dream home now.

Thanks and Best Regards

A big and sincere thank you to Amar, Sri and team! We met Amar in his office back in May and he gave us a very detailed overview of the entire process. His knowledge about the market is extremely good and accurate! Since we were first time home buyers, we had very little knowledge how an offer is made but Amar with his exceptional negotiation, put in the right strategy to win us our home.

Since it was our first experience, we had many questions. Sri answered all the questions properly with patience. Amar and his team are very professional and created a project plan during the execution phase. His team for other processes like Loan, Insurance, Home warranty etc. is excellent and professionals and helped close the deal in three weeks! Kudos to his entire team! From creating a strategy to end of closing, Amar and Sri were personally involved in each and every step from answering our questions to following up on the stake holders in home buying process. Their guidance was really helpful as not once we were skeptical about any decision that we took. They were always available any time of the day, whether after office hours or during weekends.

The most important thing about buying a home, is that you have to be comfortable in making a decision and thanks to Amar and Sri, we were very comfortable in going ahead with our decision. This is exactly what a first-time home buyer looks for and Amar and his team are the best in making sure that the buyer is comfortable. Thank you, Amar, Sri and Team, for helping us secure our dream home!

I would highly recommend them for anyone looking to buy a home. -Tanvi and Saurabh

We worked with Amar & team in buying our first home and we felt that it was the best overall experience! Rewinding the clock back, we met Amar first time at his Palo Alto office few months back; thats when he explained how the home search/ buying process is going to be, various steps involved etc.

Looking back, I think we made just the right decision by going with Amar! Now the first step - home search - was when we met Sri Amar, I must say she is extremely dedicated and very knowledgeable about Bay Area real estate market. Sri is the one with whom we interacted the most throughout this entire home buying process, she was always available for us by all means of communications. I remember, after we finalized on our home, that's when Amar took over the command & his team swiftly got into action in doing the market study, preparing the right offer in a timely manner. We went through all the disclosures, home inspection reports with Amar (I must say that this is a very important step) and we were greatly benefited by his experience in this field.

I think the offer preparation was the challenging part - as that's when you need to make a right financial decision - during this step, Sri Amar was constantly in touch with us guiding, answering our questions & helping in offer preparation. One last thing to note is, Amar has a solid team & excellent networking skills.

His team consist of a real strong loan officers; this immensely helped us in closing the house in a very short period of time. We were kept in the loop at every step and I personally liked Amar's way of communication - template emails perfectly outlining execution steps, point of contacts of each step followed by periodic status updates. We highly recommend Amar & his team, for his collaboration in making an informed decision, right deal negotiation & perfect execution of the process.

Thank you Amar and Sri Amar! You are the BEST!

A big thanks to both Sri and Amar for putting a great show to win the home for us.When I first met Amar at palo alto office. I had lot of hesitation with respect to home ownership and I am glad that you helped me in taking the right decision.

We are very fortunate to have Amar and Sri for any future real estate needs. We really appreciate your efforts you put during entire home buying process. Sri has great knowledge about all the neighborhood and understand the market well and individual needs . I highly recommend Sri and Amar for their genuine and honest services during home buying process.

Amar is really good with negotiation and put sincere effort to win the home for the clients

Amar, It has been a great experience working with you and your team throughout the home buying process. This being our first home we obviously needed a lot of guidance and coaching on deciding what is right for us.

Sri has been extremely helpful and patient in answering all of our questions and guiding us make the right decisions. And when it came to the offer, I don’t know how you pulled it off with all the competition we had for this house. Really appreciate you keeping me up to date on the status of different activities for closing in a timely fashion.

THANK YOU for helping us find our first home

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

Melissa Daoud | Associate Marriage & Family Therapist & Associate Professional Clinical Counselor

Hi Amar and Sri, Thanks a lot for your exceptional support. The home buying experience was pleasant for us. Everything happened fast. I still remember how you walk through all the reports/disclosures around mid-night and explained things in short notice, when we asked you to prepare an offer for the house.

Also, your team and your coordination with home loan, home insurance, home warranty and escrow people are exceptional. That makes our life easy as first-time home buyer. You are updating the Key Milestones progress regularly and your availability on the phone if we have any questions/clarifications. Thank you for your support throughout this process. Your support still continues after closing the deal, in terms of guiding us on registering for all utilities, ADT security and even priest for house warming. I’m already start recommending you to our friends.

I’m sure they will have the same pleasant experience with you. Without you, we may not get this house and be a homeowner today. Thanks a lot!!!

When me and my wife started to consider buying a new home, Amar’s name came up as a highly recommended agent through multiple friends. In our first meeting, Amar went through all the steps of home-buying process and explained different parameters which we need to look at when analyzing any home.

Whenever we were interested in any house, Amar’s wife Sri was extremely thorough in finding out all the pros and cons of that house in a quick time. If not for Sri, we may have ended up bidding for a house which was attractive from outside but had certain health hazard issues. When we decided to bid on the house that we are currently living in, Amar made sure to get the house within our price limit and did not ask us to raise the price during the bidding process.

Also, the entire process from bidding to escrow and closing was completely smooth and there were no delays at any point from Amar’s side. He always tried to keep all the parties involved on their toes and prevented us from any stress. Overall, I would recommend everyone to consider Amar for an honest and smooth home-home-buying experience.

We were looking for our house in a very short time frame since we had to move out of our rented house unexpectedly. My sister gave Amar’s contact details and he gave us an appointment immediately. We met at his office at Palo Alto.

He was very friendly and explained to us the whole home buying process in Bay Area. He immediately gave us the access to the tool which allows us to filter the listings as per our requirement. He also introduced us to his wife, Sri Amar, who was very diligent in evaluating the value of the property. She also gave us the idea of whether the properties we are looking at is in good neighbourhood and of good value. She took out time and came to show us a property which we really liked and put offer.

Amar did a fantastic job in finding the best deal by his awesome negotiating skills. The offer price was strategically decided and Amar and his team worked late night in putting together the bid for the property. He introduced us to his loan officer. We had a very short closing time of 21 days and Amar orchestrated with various teams, Escrow officer, Loan officer and helped us in getting it closed within the given time frame.

Sri and Amar was personally involved in all areas and stayed on top of every activity in the entire process to make sure that we got the perfect home in time!

We are repeated home buyers with Amar and Sri, and working with them again is sufficient proof for how happy we are with the team.

Having worked with multiple real estate agents both for investment properties and our primary home, I am always amazed my Amar and teams ability to make the deal happen.

Amar and team is outstanding in their ability to move fast and put the perfect offer, follow up with excellent negotiations with the sellers agent, and get the property under contract in shortest possible time.

In a fast moving real estate market like bay area, his excellent negotiation skill and impeccable execution will help you to get you the house.

" The young guys are all fascinated with the shining stuff, they forget that it is the land that appreciates and not the house" - Amar. I was always for a single-family home to raise a family and the above words of wisdom from Amar re-enforced the value of a single-family home.

Selecting a Realtor® is the foremost important thing in the whole buying experience. It is as critical as the doctor you select for your child birth. Some says the first house is like the first child - exciting and scary at the same time, hence you need a trusted alley to share your worries and joy with. For my first home I started looking into online portals and as well connecting with friends about their experience with Realtors®.

One particular review on Zillow caught my eye where the lady mentioned about how Amar and team helped over the "vacation period" of late December and early January to close a house that they liked. Coming from a technical sales consulting background I knew such a heartfelt customer review can only be from someone who has truly felt a superior experience and I decided to drop a mail to Amar. “Yesterday the chance of you getting the house was 0.01%, today it is 5%.

We will do our work and if this house is in your fate, you will get it” - Sri while discussing the counter-offer. It all started towards Early March and by March end we have our first ever offer accepted on a five Bedroom house in a prime locality with good schools and view of the hills. To be very frank the house that we eventually now own, we never thought that we can even think of bidding on something like that. Just as a dry run to understand the process, we asked Sri (Amar's wife) for her opinion. From that day both Sri and my wife Swati were equally excited about the house.

Amar did all the heavy lifting, but Sri was the calming yet excited influence that made all the difference. We were looking for a Realtor® but got a Realtor® family instead. Not to mention the super competent team of lender (Sara), insurance (Gail) and so on. The truth and trust in the whole experience is what mattered the most for me. House hunting is curious event, I was even enticed by other Realtors® to switch for extra closing credits. But when you are looking to bid on houses that are even older than yourself, you can’t be penny-wise pound-foolish. You need a wise experienced person and who better than a X high tech executive who now works passionately to make people dreams come true. I am not going to parrot all the qualities - negotiation, execution, collaboration ... that one can get in any other review for Amar. Just consider this – “being a PhD myself I revere in reading documents. But since Amar was involved and was providing crisp and concise summaries. I did not read any of the huge reports - inspection, title, appraisal ...”

If you want a pleasant no fuss home buying experience, then I can say without any prejudice Amar and team is the way to go...

We never really had any idea about the steps or terms in purchasing a home. I was a bit reluctant to meet a Realtor® initially but my wife wants us to understand the process to better prepare for the buying process.

We contacted Amar in Feb 2019, he patiently explained to us the whole process of home buying all the ABC’s. He sent us the action items he will take from his side and what steps we have to take from ours. Amar took his time to explain each and every question we asked. He advised us on area and the kind of home would be better for our young and growing family and what qualities we have to see in a house. He used to send the home details he thinks might best fit us. After we take a tour of the homes and share our experience, he would provide valuable suggestions on how the home will fit our needs in the future and any potential issues with the home after going through the disclosures.

In less than a month we zeroed on a couple of homes and his team swung into action to get the required documentation to get the offer ready and going. Even though there is a good amount of competition for the home, he was able to get the seller accept our price. He was able to negotiate a fair price for the home and his team (especially Sri Amar) was in touch with us the whole process.

They were on top of each step and prompt to get the required information and documentation. Amar and Sri made the whole home buying process as easy as possible for us. I highly recommend Amar and his team to anyone looking for home in Bay area. We are more confident after meeting him about buying the home. Thanks a bunch Amar, Sri and his team!!!

Here’s our scenario. We decided to sell our home expecting a home sale downturn in the near future and as we were planning to go back to India.

We first spoke to a Redfin selling agent, who hurried us to place it on market asap without suggesting any modifications/house updates. We were skeptical and checked with another local agent (who is well known in our community). She/He did not sound very confident and hinted that there’s a possibility that we have to rent it out due to market being slow since the start of 2019.

Fortunately, we remembered Amar from one of the Linked In posts and tried to give him a try as he has got multiple 5 star reviews from other home owners. He visited us and explained all the details about home selling and was patient in answering to all our concerns and questions. Even though we are a 2 bed 2 bath town home in a community that dominated with more than 3 beds, he took it up as a challenge and we never had to look back. When we decided to go with Amar, there are about 5 town homes (4 of which are 3 beds or larger) and without much traffic to them.

As per Amar’s suggestions and our intuition we upgraded the home with the needed and made sure it’s comparable to a new home that are being sold nearby. Amar then discussed and convinced us on the price that made sense to any buyer who is searching for a home. With his extensive marketing skills, our town house was able to become a Hot Home on Redfin in just 3 days and many people visited in the first open house weekend. We got our first offer the mid of the week after and with his amazing negotiation skills he was able to get the home sold it for more than the listed price, where nearby homes are struggling to get offers for the listed price in a record time of 10 days.

His steadfast execution didn’t stop there – he was able to close the escrow in the next 15 days and by the end of 28 days the home got closed without any issues and in a breeze. Even before handing over the keys, he noticed that the staging company made some dirt due to rains in the entrance and he himself cleaned it without complaints.

I believe Amar will be a valuable agent to anyone looking to sell the home or buy a home in this every changing market in Bay Area. We sincerely thank Amar for achieve this home sale in record time and making it a breeze for us.

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.

First of all, I want to start with a BIG THANK YOU note to Amar & Team for getting us a wonderful home. This was our first home buying experience and Amar and his team made it a pretty great one.

Amar was the initiator and he explained to me how this whole process works and what his strategy is. Then, his wife “Sri” answered all queries and gave all the necessary timely suggestions. Once we liked the home, “Sri” also visited the home and provided more detailed information about the home. Amar meanwhile was personally involved in all the aspects and collaborated very well to get the disclosures, inspections and reviewed them with me in detail.

Amar and Sri worked on the offer price which would win us the home and submitted an offer. Amar worked hard to win this. Once the offer was accepted, Amar and Sri walked through the next steps always ahead of time, starting from Loan, Insurance, Escrow to Closure. We are very thankful to Amar and Sri, without them home buying process would not have been any easier.

We definitely would recommend Amar, Sri and their team for anyone who is looking to buy or sell their home as they stayed top of every activity during the whole process for perfect execution.

Amar and Sri have been thoroughly professional in guiding us through the home buying experience. May it be the idea of writing a letter to the seller (which I learnt later proved to be one of the unique points of our offer), or guiding me in what a good offer price would be, or suggesting a lender who would adhere to the 21 day closing contract.

Amar was instrumental in orchestrating the entire Escrow, loan and closing process with stringent timelines. He referred me to lender for the loan and they were able to beat interest rates offered by other lenders. Amar put in a lot of effort during the offer negotiation phase. His negotiation skills came to the forefront when he prevented the seller from going into the phase of presenting counter offers. His reviews on yelp and LinkedIn tell you the truth about him and how he goes about getting what his clients need. Amar has always been reachable and promptly responds to all phone calls and emails. This built a great amount of confidence in us that we are in good hands during the home buying experience.

We are a family of four and this is our first home buying experience. It certainly relieved us that Amar and Sri are working for us and we can go about our daily routing without losing sanity thinking about the home buying process. His proactive point of execution and status update emails meant we need not spend time calling someone to know in what stage of the process we are in. Sri has, from the beginning, been giving us honest updates about the house, locality and surroundings of the house. She has always been approachable and been more than a friend in letting us know the process updates and also appraising us about the next steps that would come. Both of them have gone out of their way to recommend us ways and means to improve the home in a cost-effective way.

This relationship with Amar and Sri will definitely continue for our future home buying process and I would recommend Amar to anyone who talks to me about a Realtor®.

We went to Amar with a house in mind which was listed well below market rate. Although the house was fixer upper, we asked Amar to evaluate it potential and if there are any risks. Amar and Sri did a detailed evaluation of the house and provided us a report and walked us through it.

Next we decided to bid for the house, Amar help us won the bid among many potential house bids. Also we were not the highest cash offer but still he was able to get us the house. There were some delays on our loan process but Amar was able to convince the seller agent to keep patience and continue through the process. Amar managed to get our house for us in peak housing market in a good area.

We would strongly recommend Amar for buying/selling needs..

I am very happy and thrilled on my new home purchase in Milpitas, CA. We got introduced to Amar through a common friend and instantly he was able to connect with us and understand our needs.

We were primarily looking for new communities and he was able to guide us on asking the right questions to the builder. He would provide various details on different new communities coming up and discuss the pro & cons of it. This helped us narrow down on the right ones. Once we secured our home and paid the advanced for the booking, he followed up continuously until the delivery and helped clarify on various processes involved until we got the delivery.

It was a great experience working with Amar and looking forwarded to get his help in future as well. I have recommended Amar to many of my friends and have got the same feedback. Thanks for all the help.

When it comes to customer service, Amar you are the best we have seen so far. Top star rating for you and your team Following are few of the highlights in our Journey - We liked really the way you organized the Home buying process in to multiple stages.

First meeting was very great, where you explained all the steps to me and assured that you will be part of our journey till we get the keys - When you had some commitments, you immediately assigned it to one of your best team member - No questions asked when we asked Alicia to guide us on visiting the homes multiple times. She was available whenever we requested her to accompany us for the home search. Wonderful person to work with.

Your team is extremely knowledgeable in the Home selection process be it recommendations or the details of the houses - Sri was awesome in going through the neighbourhood and the details surrounding the area giving us the PROS and Cons - Highlight is your contacts with respect to home closing. Your team is the best when it comes to making the life of Buyers smooth and easy o Sara and her team Sheila, Ozzie are the best lenders from BOA team. They were backing us at every stage and helped in closing the loan faster. Sara helped us in many ways in terms of applying the closing costs to the loan and also arranging for the best interest rate. She also spoke to the seller agent to give the confidence to the buyer.

Notary even praised the BOA team in putting the documents neatly arranged o Gail and Andrea did their job in making sure all the best warranties are available to us. I did not have to research on this and spend my time. Overall my experience was awesome and anytime I will recommend you and your team for any future home buyers. I can be of reference if you need my inputs for any of your future.

This recommendation is about our experience working with Amar on purchasing a property. We’ve been to few open-houses and everyone starts asking If we are working with an agent.

When I said no, they try to offer the service. But we were not sure whom to trust. We did our research about the local Realtors® and reached out to a few of them. Few of them reached out to us and offered their services. But we were not satisfied with their responses. My wife was researching and she sent a message to Amar.

We immediately received calls from Amar. He basically enquired about us and has set up an appointment to meet on the coming weekend. We met Amar on the following weekend. He listened to us very patiently and started explaining about the entire process. We were really impressed with the details shared with us. We’ve shared the property details that we liked.

He shared the plan of execution that is very detailed. This includes all the different stages and responsible parties in each state. He was very quick in reaching out to the listing agent and reviewed all the disclosures. Also shared the summary of the details with us. Then he explained to us the strategy to win the offer. He prepared the very competitive offer. Amar came up with perfect execution and involved loan officer also to provide confidence to the seller/agent.

Once the owner accepted the offer, he personally involved in the escrow process, closing loan, title company. Every day he started sharing the status updates via email/phone calls. Without his extraordinary efforts, we wouldn’t have been able to close the deal in two weeks. We've never imagined we'd be able to close the deal in this very short duration.

Thank you, Amar, for the outstanding efforts. I'd definitely recommend him for my friends and colleagues.

Amar and his team recently helped me buy my first home. We are very satisfied with the whole experience and I strongly recommend Amar to anyone looking to buy a home. Here are some major milestones where his team’s experience and expertise made all the difference.

1. First meeting with Amar: Amar understood my requirements, walked me through his process and introduced his team. All I had to do was to visit open houses. I knew that I can leave other considerations about the neighborhood specifics and disclosures/inspection reports to the experts in his team. This clarity accelerated my home search process.

2. Open Houses review phone calls: His partner Sri listened patiently to my opinions, preferences and shared her detailed feedback about every home on my list. Her inputs helped me to narrow down and rank my preferences. Sri was very proactive in making things happen when we just had hours left before the offer deadline for a particular home that we were interested in.

3. Offer Process: Amar provided a clear and crisp summary of all disclosures and Sri had an elaborate call with me to help me decide on my offer price, terms and conditions. It would have been impossible for me to make a decision in such a short span if not for their expert guidance. They both did a fantastic job by walking me through all steps until the offer was accepted.

4. Execution: I had to travel out of the country during the closing window and I was concerned about being away during the execution process, But Amar, Nicole and rest of the team were on top of the game and provided timely updates to help me gauge on how we were moving forward. The whole team worked like a well-oiled machine in bringing this to closure.

Once again, we are really thankful to Amar and team for making this possible with their professional execution. We would rate his team a perfect 10.

Right from our first meeting, Amar has always been very detailed and gave us deep insights about the trends and practices of home buying in California. Being first time home buyers, it was a big challenge for us to buy our dream home in the bay area. But with Amar’s immense experience and advise we were able to execute our plan step by step.

Both Sri and Amar explained each and every process that is involved in home buying in a very detailed manner and were always available to help us with our queries. Thank you, Amar and Sri, for helping us in getting our Dream Home!

When me and my wife decided to buy a home in one of the most aggressive and expensive markets in all of California, Amar was a godsend. Me and my wife decided to go with Amar after reading reviews online and met him at his office in Palo Alto where he explained to us the details of the home buying and ownership process.

The same day we were introduced through email to Amar’s wife Sri Amar who would be the first to approve of the house after considering various functional aspects like location, neighborhood, layout, natural light, configuration, desirability, functionality and usability before we decided collectively as a team to go ahead with making an offer. Both Amar and Sri Amar were on top of everything, from forward visionary thinking to listening and communicating. They knew the property worth that we were interested in purchasing and they made sure that everything in their power was done to make the buying process successful.

Amar was tactfully aggressive with being one of the first offers when we finally settled on the home that we ultimately bought, and was able to connect with the selling agent and negotiate the finer details, price, and manage the process. Throughout the process, he and his wife kept us in the loop and made sure that we knew every step as it happened. We are more than happy with the price we paid, and are already seeing similar properties in our neighborhood selling for more; a sure sign that Amar helped to negotiate a very aggressive deal on a very aggressive timeline.The process of buying a home in this highly competitive real estate market was very daunting to us, but it made a huge difference to have someone who was so decisive, perceptive and competent on our side.

I firmly believe that we wouldn’t have been possible without Amar’s aggressive and tactful handling of the offer dynamics. We feel relieved that the house we loved at first sight is finally truly ours.

I am writing this to appreciate you, Sri and your team for your extra ordinary services that you have given to us . As a first time Home Buyers, we were very new to the housing market which I believe one of the most competitive Bay area real estate markets. You people are obviously helped us from very beginning; correcting our credit score to Lending process and to getting the home keys.

We would like to appreciate your sure-fire negotiation skills, communication abilities and the insight regarding the real estate industry. The process happened in such well organized way which was the most turning point for winning the deal and we are highly satisfied. Thank you Amar, Sri and your team for such a lovely experience. We would love to work with you in future and highly recommend your services to everyone.

We met Amar through our close friends, who had lot to say about his excellent team and meticulous professionalism . Now we totally agree with them, I like to refer Amar and his team as team ‘Magic’. They are definitely the best agents I have worked with. From the very start working with Amar, Sri and Narayan was a breeze. They not only helped us in picking up properties and also went lengths in checking out their financial as well as functional aspects.

Once we liked the property, Amar worked his magic. What seemed like a tough negotiation, actually went in our favor and we got the home. I have already recommended Amar to all our friends and would love to work with them again in future.

My husband and I were always a little bit concerned as to how we could complete a real estate transaction without ever meeting the agent(s). However, we are now convinced that, with Amar and Sri, it is possible.

1. Selection of home: In retrospect, we really liked touring houses on our own and discovering what we truly wanted for our first home. We also appreciate Sri's timely advice to get us first-home buyers on the right track.

2. The bidding process: We had a dry-run when we bid on a house for the first time in 2017. So, this time when we won our bid, the process was absolutely clear.

We also appreciate Amar's aggressive bidding in getting us a great deal. He truly pulled a rabbit out of the hat. 3. Lender recommendation: We were glad that Amar introduced us to Nicole from GuaranteedRate. She was great to work with and clarified all our queries regarding the loan.

Thank you for helping us get our first home in this competitive Bay Area market!

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.

My property selling experience is that Amar's outbound marketing system works and he has the professional network to handle both mainstream requirements (e.g., remodeling, home & pest inspections, escrow services) of the transaction as well as any contingencies that might crop up.

I felt that he anticipated my concerns very well and his communications regarding the process were timely and concise. I would not hesitate to recommend his services as a listing agent in the area of Palo Alto and Mountain View, CA.

We had decided to sell our house in Milpitas however we had a vacation planned around the time.
Amar stepped in at the right time and gave us assurance that it will all be taken care. From recommending the staging team, listing the home, hosting open house, promoting the listing to the maximum number of buyers, Amar went the extra mile and executed each step with utmost care and strategy.

He negotiated well and made sure we got a great price on the home. Seamlessly we were able to come back from vacation and complete the closing formalities.

We really thank Amar for all his hard work and meticulous planning and execution.

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.

""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!

Update 2017 -- we have bought a second home with Amar and our experience has not changed even one bit, if not better. If you are a serious home buyer looking for your home in today's competitive market, get in touch with Amar. He is great to work with and keeps a personal connect.

"I started my home search around 9 months ago and today after a long struggle and putting around 10 offers finally I own a house.

This journey could have been much smoother and fun if I would have met "Amarrath" at the starting of it. Nine months ago when I started the house search with my first agent (Not Amar), it looked like driving an uphill without any driving experience.

Experience with my first agent was a nightmare, there was a very little information that my first agent would have about the properties that I would like to see, no grip or very little grip on the market, no team, just standalone. I put continuously 9 unsuccessful offers with him but never got any of them and things went beyond the limit when in a house we put 700K and the house was finally sold in 685K but we did not the house and the comments about my old agent from the listing agent was “where did you got this agent”, That point I understood the importance of real estate agent. It’s not the highest bid you put in market, it’s not highest credit score, but it is the strong real estate agent that gets you the deal, and with my experience I can tell that Amar is THE ONE, who can get you anything you like.

My journey started with Amar after getting introduced through one of my friend and he told lot of good things about Amar, but with my experience with my previous agent was not that comfortable, so did not wanted to jump so did a lot of study on looking at Amar’s LinkedIn profile which was having lot of +ve reviews, so decided to go with him, today sitting in my new house, I feel very fortunate that I met Amar. The 1st offer that was put through AMAR was readily accepted and within 2 weeks AMAR closed the deal, it gave me an extreme piece of mind and a respect and a tremendous confidence for the man (AMAR) and his team. I referred one of my friends to AMAR and there also Amar proved that he is the best, there also his first offer was accepted.

Amar has connections, respect in market and a team which will get you the house with best price.

He has a team starting from loan officer to the closing escrow connections which makes your transaction flawless.
I can say a lot about Amar’s capabilities but here is a list which tells how he helped me:

1. The Best deal negotiation by ALL possible means
2. Perfect execution of the process.
3. Winning property in hot market with right strategy.
4. Personally involved in ALL areas (Appraisal, Loan, Escrow process, and closing)
5. Co-ordination and engagement with WFC and Escrow to ensure loan closing
6. Collaboration in informed decision making
7. Entire process guidance throughout Home BUYING PROCESS.
8. Staying on TOP of EVERY activity in the entire process to make sure end goal is accomplished as smooth as possible.

I saw Amar profile on Zillow and instantly felt trustworthiness and sincerity. We met him and right away, he set us for pre-approval process. During pre-approval process itself, the way Nicole from Guaranteed rates and Amar was working, I felt we are in safe hands. Amar asked right question about our budget and expectation from home and gave access to a portal where listing was already customized to our requirement.

When we made an offer and got accepted, Amar and team guided us in every step to close the deal. I first hand experienced market knowledge of Amar and team when at one point property appraisal came below our expectation and within 15 minutes team challenged that with extensive data and facts and we able to overturn it. We are today a proud homeowner, it’s all because of Amar and team.

Amar, Sri and their staff were top notch and a pleasure to work with in purchasing our first home. Strategic, professional, and accommodating. We are glad that our offer was accepted in a competitive market. Amar’s sharp skill set helped us navigate through negotiations to influence seller to choose our offer.

Amar and Sri has been on top of things and helped us in every step of home buying experience. I also found them to be very knowledgeable of the area and able to bring back good advice and information about the properties. Their extensive experience really helped ease our stress during the hunt. Starting from first meeting till date both were proactive and responded to all queries promptly. Amar introduced us to reliable mortgage broker who helped us secure our loan in efficient manner. Amar helped us through the whole process and after purchase formalities. We are impressed with results.

Thank you Amar, Sri and team for guiding us in the right direction.

If you are looking for a Realtor® that has the knowledge base and ability to get the house you like in a smooth manner then Amar's team is the way to go!

It was a pleasure working with Amar and Sri for our first home purchase. They made the entire home buying experience a smooth and memorable one for us. In our first meeting, Amar stressed on team work which includes us, the buyers as well. At the end, it was the complete team work that won us the home.

Amar's team is a "one stop" shop for home buying. Everyone in the team (Amar/Sri - Realtors®, Narayan - admin, Nicole and team - home loan and Millie - Escrow) played their role to perfection and their professionalism is of the highest quality. Each member is highly experienced, collaborative, resourceful, and always alert. Whenever a challenging situation presented itself, they knew the corrective course of action and quickly implemented it. They all went above and beyond call of duty to take us to the finish line on-time. We highly recommend Amar/Sri and their team to anyone who like us are serious about winning competitive bids and close the sale on-time.

Amar's excellent negotiation skill and Sri's straight to-the-point advises deserve a special mention. Sri was in constant touch throughout the home search process. Sri educated us on what the target list price should be, which localities we should aim for and made sure we were putting our time and effort on property where our chances of winning was realistic. Sri and Amar reached out to us at key junctures, patiently explained the pros and cons, and readily shared their point of view: all of which greatly helped us with the decision making. Amar won us a very competitive bid without multiple counter offers and successfully negotiated to have the seller pay a major portion of the closing cost - a perfect deal for us. Few days later the bank appraisal came in and the home was valued above the sale price - a true testament to Amar's extraordinary negotiation skills.

Post the offer acceptance, the team worked very hard to close the sale on time. Personally, we felt it was a huge advantage to work with a close-knit team as they collaborated among themselves to get majority of the work done. This allowed us to give all our time and attention to our son who at the time of purchase was barely a month old. A big thanks to Amar, Sri and team for all their help and care. We will be Amar/Sri's client for lifetime!

Hi Amar/Sri,
Following is my feedback on the home buying experience we had with you and your team.
We started off on the home buying journey with you almost 1 1/2 years back. We had gone
through 4-5 properties related offer presentations where couple of them we did not get
selected and couple of them we got them and rejected them on contingency basis. During
all this time you had been available whenever we called you and asked about any of the
properties.
Finally beginning of this month(May 1 st 2018) we closed with a successful one.
During this long home buying journey we had with you, we observed the following:

1. You are very diligent in your home analysis with respect to the ROI, Costs, growth
potential, suitability to our needs etc. Really appreciate your insight and knowledge
about all things related to home buying.
2. You are very knowledgeable about the scenarios which would fit my family’s
personal needs.
E.g. In one scenario we had a home that was well below and within our budget (price
wise). You had analysed the growth prospects for my family and gave your feedback
on what are the pros and cons of choosing that property, which allowed us to make
our decision in an informed way.
3. You had given us great advice on which conditions we should be wary of and which
we should be able to mitigate and which we should be able to address.
4. You had good external and internal team setup which basically allowed us to close
the property on time.
5. You had been on top of things that were necessary for closing the property.
6. You had given us your external business contacts for working with different aspects
of owning a home and managing it.
Overall it has been a great home buying experience. It was (and is) great feeling, working
with you and your extended team ( especially Stacey Huang).

If you are here reading this review, it is how we started our search for a Realtor® to represent us. Strong recommendations here as well as a personal recommendation from a friend and we decided to meet Amar to purchase our home.

Just like many of the other recommendations on here have already talked about the well established process Amar & his team follow, we started with meeting Amar at his office, followed by discussing our needs with Sri. Her inputs and ideas on how we could get the best value for our money and improve an existing home were very helpful. She is very approachable through the entire process. We decided to not place an offer on a property we had initially liked at the last minute, Sri was extremely supportive of our decision, regardless of the amount of work the team had already put in. The emphasis is on team work and it shows very well all through the process.

When we finally decided to move ahead on an offer, Amar ensured that our overall offer package was the strongest. Sri kept us up to date on the discussions with the Seller throughout the day. We had little hope we would win the offer as there were multiple offers and the seller could easily counter any of them. But thanks to Amar & Sri, we won the offer on a home we liked without any counters.

Once the offer deal was done, Amar introduced us to a team​ of experts for our loan and insurance needs. The loan was approved in 8 straight days and we closed quickly. We highly recommend Amar, Sri & team and look forward to working with them again in the future for any of our real estate needs.

We would like to start with big thank you to Amar & Sri for getting us our dream home.Honestly we are lucky that we met Amar & Sri, so our home buying experience was very smooth and closed in less than 14 business days (was like a all cash closure).

We met Amar through our colleague review and also by LinkedIn references. Amar is very detailed oriented person, explained us whole home buying process, market conditions, loan process, home searching process and introduced us to Sri.

Sri is an excellent person, who has great dedication, patience and very committed towards clients satisfaction. We liked a property, and forwarded details to Sri, she did thorough research on the property and provided her feedback that about home condition, neighborhood, city developments around that property and also potential hazards around the property. Since it was our first home and very new to bidding process, Sri explained every step very patiently, actually we called many times even late nights..but Sri explained everything very in detailed and never hesitated. Sri introduced us to a bank loan officer, who is a nation No.1 ranking mortgage officer and got us approval over night with an unbeatable APR. Personally we have learned a lot while working with Sri, and definitely felt she is like our family member.

In next step Amar got all disclosures, inspection reports and went through everything with us and what need to be looked in those documents and also estimated $$ for any potential repairs as per reports.

Next big step is offer submission. Amar has excellent negotiation skills in winning bidding wars. But in our case he went beyond and above to win our offer because there were 4+ higher bids, one of them was almost 6% higher than ours, so we thought we lost our offer, but Amar used his excellent negotiation strategy to compete higher bids with out giving counter offer and able to win ours. I believe he put his soul in winning our offer.

Once we win offer, our next challenge was to close escrow in 14 business days including appraisal and loan process. Amar got a great team who works day & night to accomplish their tasks once committed. Amar & Sri got an excellent strategy on how to close escrow process in given timelines. Amar’s KME (Key Milestone Execution) process helped us a lot in closing everything smoothly with in 10 days, 4 days less than committed. I believe none would have heard closing home in 10 business days including appraisal and loan process. But Amar and his team made it possible.

On overall it was great experience in working with Amar & Sri, during our home buying process. Amar got best team and references, where nobody was able to beat estimates provided by his references. For example bank loan (APR was unbeatable), Home Insurance, Kitchen & Bath Remodel material store and Contractor. Amar & Sri comes with full home buying package, so clients doesn’t need to-do additional research and will have 200% satisfaction.

Once again thank you Sir

Hi Amar,
We had a wonderful experience working with you. When we sold our first home with you in August 2017, we were not sure how things will turn out. But you did such an excellent job that in February 2018 we decided to list our primary residence with you as well. We left our home in your hands with peace of mind that you will take care of anything and everything, and moved to another state.

You lived above and beyond our trust and took care of selling our home with highest price in the community ever, with flawless execution. You worked with us every step of the way, dealing with every single thing that needed to be sorted out. No other Realtor® would have executed it so well!

You have an awesome marketing strategy and sold our home in no time! We know a couple of homes in our community that were not sold for a long time after they were listed. But with you, we knew you will do such awesome Marketing that our house will be sold right away. Wonderful job!!!!!

Here are a few other highlights of our experience:

1. 255K over listed price
2. It was the best deal we could have gotten
3. It’s a record highest ever sold price in the community because of your       unparalleled negotiation skills, extensive online Marketing, and round    the clock work
4. Selling Home with right strategy

First of all, I want to start with a BIG THANK YOU note to Amar Realtor® & Team for getting me a wonderful home.

As every home buyer in Bay Area, I was also frustrated with not getting the ideal home, losing the bidding wars and ever increasing home prices. I stopped my home search within 6 months. After a long break, I went to an open house and liked a property. I wanted to choose an experienced Realtor® this time who can negotiate well and submit the winning offer. I read all the great reviews about Amar Realtor® online and choose him with lots of hopes.

I met Amar in his office and he spent an hour to explain the whole Home Buying process and answered all my questions with patience. He got me pre-approval overnight through lender. Next day Sri called me to understand my needs & expectations and discussed about the property which I was interested in. She explained me about the home, location, neighborhood, amenities, etc.

Amar got the disclosures and reviewed with me in detail & informed me about all the facts I should pay attention to. Amar & Sri worked on the pricing and suggested me what could be winning offer price and submitted my offer at right time.

Amar is a MASTER when it comes to offer negotiation and he negotiated very well with listing agent and got my offer accepted. My offer was not the highest one and Amar worked really hard to win it through excellent strategy.

Once the offer is accepted, Amar provided me “Key Milestones” which is like Project Plan and he executed to its perfection. He referred me a wonderful team of individuals for Loan, Warranty, Home Insurance and assisted with Close of Escrow.

To be honest, I was really lucky enough to get my first home with Amar but that would not have been possible without the efforts of Amar Realtor® Team. Amar & Sri are very helpful, easy to approach and they assist you with entire home buying process.

Try Out Yourself!!!

When u have to buy a house in the valley you need to have all support you can get. The house buysing expereince can be daunting for the first time house buyers. When we started to look for house we were went through failed attempts to secure our house, that is when we contacted amar.

Amar bought new focus for us educating us on the market and kind of house we need to be looking out for. Within week of us working with Amar we were able to place offer that was accepted. Amar played huge role in position our offer in best possible manner and also worked through various angle to conveince the buyers agent on our bid. Once the offer got accepted he bought in his team of experts who were able to work with us on pace that was needed to close the house.

I also like the fact that Amar continues to be in touch with us and updating on the market. I would recommend Amar to anyone who is looking for house in valley. Having worked other relators I can say with confidence he is the Best that I have come across.

Amar is the best Realtor® for all the home-buyers. Buying a house is a very tough process especially with this market condition in south bay. But fortunately we had Amar doing everything for us . He is a very genuine person who has excellent knowledge of the market with his excellent Negotiation skills, we are still thinking about how he managed to win the offer for us from multiple offers . Amar, you encouraged us to buy an independent house when we were compromising with a town house. We never thought that we will be able to get this house but with all your inputs and efforts we got it .

Amar has lots of experience in real estate business and the properties he has sold makes him stand out. He along with his team are working very hard to get the buyers their dream homes ..

Thank you so much Amar for everything, we really appreciate what you have done for us.

Amar was my seller’s agent for my Mountain View condo. I currently live in Texas, so this was a remote sale. Amar is an incredibly talented and motivated professional – by leagues the best agent I have ever worked with. Thanks to his exceptional marketing, zeal and talent, he sold my condo for the record high price in my neighborhood, 181K over list price during the off-season!

From the moment I called him till the successful closing, he took care of every detail with the highest degree of excellence. He was personally involved in every aspect of the sale, from staging to marketing to appraisal to escrow process – everything was executed flawlessly and on-time.

Especially as a remote seller, I greatly appreciated how worry-free the whole experience was for me. I know my home sale was in the best hands possible, and Amar exceeded every expectation I could have ever had in selling my home.

Amar and his wife Sri make a formidable team. During the initial days of visiting open houses and narrowing down the right areas with good school district, Sri was an excellent guide having in-depth conversation about investing in the right locations and advising us on each home thoroughly. Since my husband and I both have hectic work schedules, Sri was able to accommodate calls after hours for any questions/concerns. Her knowledge of the market, areas and insights based on our needs was critical. On one home which we really liked and seemed good at face value, Sri was able to advise us on this not being a good investment in the long term since it might lack appreciation value, this was valuable advice since most Realtors® hesitate to tell the truth and might not stop you from making wrong home buying decisions.

The first meeting with Amar convinced us that he is a professional and has the right expertise to guide us through the home buying process in this intensely competitive Bay Area market. We were proven correct when within 2 months of home search. When we moved to the next phase of making an offer on a home of interest, Amar stepped in with his expertise to guide us on the right
offer prices while ensuring appreciation and appraisal gaps are well accounted for. Amar and Sri’s guidance helped us be the second highest offer on the table. Amar excellent negotiation skills was able to win us the offer despite the highest offer being 40K more than ours. Amar/Sri collaborated with us on every aspect of the process/strategy and kept us informed throughout on the progress.

During the escrow/appraisal process, we were concerned on potential appraisal gaps. Amar and Sri went above and beyond to personally met with the appraiser to ensure the appraiser understands the local market and right value of the home.

Our family can highly recommend Amar/Sri based on our experience. We will be happy to work with Amar/Sri if we chose to buy another home !

Working with you (Amar Realtors®) was a great experience for us. Within a month after started working with Amar we found our dream house.

We had worked with 2 other bay area Realtors® before and the experience was bad. Due to our personal reasons we were in a hurry to buy a house and had almost lost hope after a long search. But once we met Amar, he and his wife Sri made this happen for us so quick which seems like a miracle!

The significant difference that we noticed with Amar and others is that Amar's home buying process along with his negotiation skills and ideas in making an offer stronger makes him unique.

At our first visit with Amar , he discussed home buying process, our requirements, budget and helped us set up right expectations with his frank opinion. We found this helpful esp. when buying home for the first time.

Additionally, the home buying process what Amar Realtors® follow is quite impressive where as a team Sri and Amar looked at various functional and technical aspects of the house and provided their insight. This again helped us in capturing some aspects that went unnoticed.

There are a lot of factors which gave us satisfaction working with Amar and have summarized below :
First of all his ideas in making a strong offer is impactful.
He followed up closely with the selling agent and negotiated very well to win the bid with multiple counter offer situation.
With his excellent negotiation skills, he negotiated 10K$ less than the offered price after the offer was accepted in Willows of Willow Glen San Jose.
The team's active involvement and coordination through out the process-escrow, loan, closing process was quick and very efficient. Good collaboration.
As an experienced Realtor® Amar's foresight is excellent .He gives heads up and immediately suggests work around in tough situations.
His encouragement and guidance in making offers irrespective of whether we make a winning offer or a lower priced one gave us good understanding of bidding process.

Overall , me and my husband are very thankful to Amar Realtors® in executing a plan to find a house as per our requirements.We will definitely continue to work with Amar in future and recommend to all our friends

When we set out to buy a home, the market conditions were the most difficult for any buyer. We had unsuccessfully already put in offers on a couple of homes. But from our very first meeting with Amar, he was able to instill a confidence in us. Sri pitched in, and was giving us very insightful guidance on how to go about the whole process. Both Amar and Sri were constantly in touch with us, and we eventually zeroed in on a property.

Where most agents would leave it on the buyers to look for properties in a crazy market as this, Amar and Sri were working more than we did to select the home for us. We are extremely grateful and inspired by their approach.

After the offer went through, they guided us through every step and successfully closed the home buying process in a very short time. And all along, they made it so seamless for us, while they were working out so many details in the background. Amar and his team are commendable in their commitment and approach to the job.

Our home selling experience with Amar was as easy as it can get. Process started with him visiting the house and recommending minor decor changes that were required, he did a phenomenal job right from the beginning with photo shoot, pre-list marketing, aggressive open house showing and showed great negotiation skills from offer to close.

He went above and beyond his duty to make sure all aspects were taken care. I would recommend Amar as a selling or a buying agent any day.

We were impressed with Amar right from the first time we met him in his office. Even though we told him we were not seriously looking at homes right now, he was onboard. Amar gave us an overview of the entire home buying process, what to look at, and in demand areas.

Sri, Amar and their entire team is usually on top of things. Sri is very responsive and gives very frank opinion about any house we ask her about. When we found our dream home, we were sure we would never get it. But Amar worked his magic and got us the house!

After our offer was accepted, Amar & team guided us in every step and have been as responsive and helping us close the house on time and without any issues. Amar’s team (lender, insurance agent, home warranty and others ) were very helpful in closing the home in 3 weeks as promised in the offer.

We are extremely happy that we went with Amar, Sri and their team. I have doubt if it would’ve been possible to get our dream home in less than 3 months of meeting Amar in his office! We have already been talking and recommending Amar to all our friends and relatives looking into buying a home in the near future.

Hi Amar

I would like to use this opportunity to thank you and Sri for helping me and my wife to find our dream home. You guided us in each step like a dependable friend and getting us in right direction in the home buying process.

We were clueless on the entire home buying process in the beginning, wandering in different directions with different thoughts. You not only helped us understand what we really wanted as our home but also made us realize our potential of buying a property in the bay area.. Your good reputation in the market along with your passion and dedication for work is truly commendable. It's really extraordinary that the way you executed the perfect plan by following up on every details to close the deal in 18 days without much friction.

We appreciate your entire team who works closely and swiftly to win a deal. We are truly humbled to have you as our agent. I specially thank Sri for dedicating lot of time for us and being available all the time to answer our queries and concerns. You guys would be a perfect choice for young couples like us to win a dream house. Thank you once again.

RAM ELANGO | Sr. Data Analyst/Business Intelligence Lead

I would like to share my home buying experience with Amar and Sri.

I met Amar after reading reviews online and we met at his office and during my visit he explained me the process in detail and I left the place with confidence and comfort that we have met a good human being who is also becomes to be a Realtor®.

Sri used to send me open house schedule and explain me the positive and negatives of the house which helps 1st home buyers like me, she is very knowledgeable and have lots of patience to explain.

Within few days of my house hunt, I liked a house and I updated Amar and Sri on the same and what happens next is all miracle but I was fortunate to see it happen and am still not able to believe it.

This is the only home I liked and this is the only home I told Amar and he got it for me with his high negotiation skills, every task he performs I know for sure Amar puts his heart and soul and his 200% of his energy to make it happen. He has a great communication skill of how to work with various players in the transaction, he knows when to fall back or to move forward to make things happen which benefits the buyer.

I have heard many home buying experience from my friends and relatives but what happened to me is simply great. The house I got had 2 all cash offers and I was dependent on home loan but it's Amar pure excellent execution skills that I got this house.

Amar guided me throughout the process and he was on top of all key dates and he helped me get home warranty, home loan and home insurance. He is very systematic, punctual, dedicated and he is a great human being.

Amar and Sri is like a family member to me.
If you get to work with him and I am sure you will say "I am right".

You buy a small budget house or a big budget house... Amar is always the same and the end results is always SUCCESS.

God Bless Amar, Sri and their family !!!

Thanks,
Ram and Vinita

MUKESH GUPTA | Senior Director of Product Management at Illumio
September 30, 2017, Mukesh was a client of Amar

We hired Amar to sell our house in Milpitas. The process started with Amar walking through our house and suggesting improvements to the house so it shows up well. He also recommended a contractor who did all the remodeling/fixing and made the house beautiful. Amar also provided reference to a good stager for staging the house.

Once the house was staged, Amar took over completely and we didn't have to do anything except following his instructions. He marketed the house very heavily with high quality pictures, videos, brochures, virtual reality tours, social media, and by personally distributing flyers to the entire neighborhood. The results of his marketing efforts were astonishing. We ended up receiving 14 offers with one weekend of open house. He worked all day tirelessly with the potential buyers negotiating with them on the day of the offer. We ended up with the offer that was $200K+ (20%) above the list and was the highest $/sqft., not just in the history of the neighborhood but probably in the history of Milpitas.

Once we were in contract, Amar worked with appraisers, loan officers, escrow, and the seller's agent to bring the transaction to a successful closure without us having to do anything at all other than signing the papers. He is an amazing agent who takes his job very seriously and performs far beyond the call of duty to maximize the value for the seller. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking to sell their house.

This was my first home buying experience and Amar and his team made it a pretty great one. The best thing I liked was working with the whole team and not just with one person. Amar was the initiator as he explained to me how this whole process works and what his strategy is. But, then his Wife “Sri” took the charge on answering all my queries and suggesting which open houses are worth going for. Once I had liked the place, they left no stone unturned to win the offer.

Amar is flawless in his execution and he enjoys the buying process, evident from the fact that he represents more buyers than sellers, giving him an extra edge in the buying process. I would recommend Amar any day.

SANDEEP NAIR | Core OS at Apple
September 17, 2017, Sandeep was a client of Amar

I connected with Amar through a friend who had provided a very positive feedback. Knowing how tough it is to get a house of one's liking in Bay Area, I think, we are few of those fortunate people who got their first offer accepted. We walked into our new home in just under a month after meeting Amar, which for me is a big deal as home buying experience in Bay Area can be very frustrating. Our home buying experience was excellent and stress free with Amar, Sri and Team.

Amar and his team are very experienced and professional. He was involved in all the areas of the home buying experience starting from loan pre-approval, home evaluation, offer negotiation, appraisal, loan, escrow and closing, and collaborated diligently and actively with all the participating parties resulting in a smooth and fast closing.

I will definitely recommend Amar to all Home buyers for a smooth Home buying experience and I would like to personally thank Amar and his team for making my home buying experience so smooth and memorable.

AKSHAY GANDHI | DevOps Production Engineer
September 8, 2017, Akshay was a client of Amar

Negotiation skills, strategy and excellent support team is what differentiates Amar and team.
Finding home is 50-50% work between buyers and an agent. When you work with Amar, he provides the value in getting the deal done smoothly and effectively. Though Sri and Amar can help and guide about finding the right house, deciding the area, researching the local market etc... it is more of buyers choice.

We liked one house and told Amar and Sri that we were interested. Amar did an excellent job advising us on home condition, value, local housing market, and overall area. Sri and Amar also pointed us in the right direction to find other relative information. Once we finalized that we want to put an offer for the house, he took over the process. Sri kept us in loop through out the process, during this time I witnessed how right strategy, negotiation skills and process works the wonder. Amar was clear and calm during the process and ultimately finalized the house for us. From the time we liked the house and told Amar and Sri about it, it baraly took a day to put an offer and within 2 days offer was accepted.
Amar and team's support continued to be there even after loan process was over. Whole loan process was smooth and fast. Here is where I saw how much difference it makes to have an excellent support team. When you work with Amar, you actually work with experianced team of professionals, where each member has a specific role and they execute on it without any flaws.

We got the house in very first offer. Ours was not the highest offer. During negotiation phase, at one point, I was willing to increase offer by 20k but Amar advised against it and followed his strategy to win the house for us. It is rare to get house in first offer in current market. Individual experience will be different but I can tell that when you work with Amar, at right time, with right strategy, sooner or later he will get you in the house of your liking. Amar is a sincere, professional and trustworthy Realtor®. He is in this occupation because that is what he likes to do. He takes pride in the deals he makes and does the transactions as his own.

We are happy to choose Amar and team in our Home selling process. After having an informative talk with Amar we just followed his advice and suggestions with complete trust. The transaction was smooth and transparent.

Amar provided right guidance to get the best price that met our expectations without any hassle of open house or staging. The price is the best considering the history of the property already in market last year and delisted by another agent. We whole heartedly refer Amar to our friends or anyone looking to Buy or Sell the houses.

Amar is always the first person we consult for our Real estate needs.

All in all highly recommended !

PREETI KOTHARI | Business Analyst-Oracle(Contract)
August 21, 2017, Preeti was a client of Amar

We worked with Amar on selling our Home recently and he exceeded our expectations on pricing front. To to honest, there is this sense of tentativeness amongst many of us working with Realtors® nowadays but I can vouch that there are tangible benefits working with someone like Amar.

Amar brings a sense of orderliness to the process and works out a detailed plan with you. Yes, it’s a joint ownership of the process and he’d drive you hard to make sure you follow through which eventually would be to your benefit. There are many things that he’d take care of in the background which would help process go smoother. In all, his diligence and perseverance are big assets in my opinion.

The Home that Amar sold, fetched the highest price EVER SOLD $/sq.ft in the neighborhood/community and that’s the testimony to his selling strength, negotiating skills and above all extensive online Marketing by working around the clock.

Even in your interactions you could sense his steadfast focus towards goals whether his own or your shared goals with him. This quality of him to optimize for those goals and showing that through his results is what I feel sets him apart.

SRINIVAS GANTASALA | Consultant at Tech-NetInc

Amar and Sri helped us in getting our first home and made Home buying a memorable experience. Amar asked us to meet him in the office to find out what our preferences are and from then he has guided us, and very responsive in every step of the process from Pricing to Loan to Escrow to Closing. Amar also saved money in home price and closing cost due to Amar’s tremendous knowledge and negotiation.

Our first time Home buying would have been nerve- wracking and confusing, if Sri would not have helped us answer all the very small doubts that we had. Sri was always there for us and guided us throughout the whole process and gave us examples how we can make proper decisions on important items. She always responded to our phone calls and answered them with lots of patience and made us understand everything and made our first time home buying experience a really pleasant one.

Amar’s knowledge is tremendous in negotiating, with the agent and in writing attractive offer that helped us in getting the house we wanted. we were looking to buy our first home for many years now. We started to loose hope in getting our home. Then we met Amar through one of our friends reference. Amar gave us tremendous confidence, and in less than a month we made an offer and bought our first home.

Amar guided us through every step of the way and made our dream come true. I strongly recommend Amar and Sri as they have tremendous knowledge and good negotiating skills. God Bless Amar and Sri.

Amar and Sri helped us in getting our first home and made home buying a memorable experience. We started our home search this summer and made decision to go with Amar as he had amazing reviews on Zillow and Yelp. As a first-time home buyer, we were little nervous throughout the process. But Amar and his team explained us the whole home buying process very clearly. We are not easy people when it come to questions and clarifications but Amar and his team kept us amazed with their professionalism and dedication.

On the day of bidding Amar made up a point to be at the seller’s real estate agent's office to make all the negotiations. Amar's team had been instrumental especially getting loan done within 21 days and providing us with best market rate available.

We have heard stories from our friends about how it takes more than 6 months to get a home in Bay Area. I would say between meeting Amar and find our new home was all done within less than 1 month. I would highly recommend Amar and his team, if it was not for him we wouldn’t have been enjoying our new home. Overall, we are quite happy to work with Amar and Sri and we would definitely refer Amar and his team in future to all our acquaintances.

Amar helped us to SELL our HOME for THE RECORD PRICE in our community.

In Summary, I have authorized Amar to accept 1050K offer that is 52K MORE than the LISTED PRICE. However, Amar worked NON-STOP with Agents and negotiated the Offer PRICE to 1120K. The additional 70K was well above our expectations and we didn’t expected that PRICE at all. We are extremely happy with Amar RESULTS - 122K MORE than the LISTED PRICE for the TOWN HOME.

Amar puts his heart and soul in the process to get TOP DOLLAR for the SELLER. We strongly believe, Amar RESULTS speaks for itself time and again.

Amar’s KEY Strengths to get TOP DOLLAR for HOME:

1. Extensive ON-LINE MARKETING & Market KNOWLEDGE

2. Realtor®’s NETWORKING & Online REPUTATION

3. Multiple Offers GENERATION & Sure-fire NEGOTIATIONS

4. Perfect PANNING & Peace of mind EXECUTION

5. Right GUIDANCE & Team of EXPERTS

This is a sincere, heartfelt review of our recent home selling process through Amar & his team.
Amar promosied us BEST DEAL & TOP Dollar - and boy, did he deliver!

Strategy planning & execution - Getting the house on the market :
Once we decided to sell the house, Amar was "on the job". He again personally walked through the house and developed a plan with clear timelines on what would be the right strategy to attract potential buyers. Because of Amar & his teams' rigorous planning & coordination, the house was ready to be on the market in 15 days! Again, Amar recommended and engaged the best in business to stage the house & have professional pictures taken to appeal to a wide range of potential buyers.

Getting maximum traffic & eyes on the house:
What came next was nothing but the best. During our initial session, Amar had mentioned that he would leverage best-in-class, digital age marketing techniques. At that time, we didn't know what to expect. In addition to listing on MLS, Amar leveraged his IT background to ensure that any & all real estate searches & websites pulled up our house's ad & listing.

Amar used his extensive network of Realtors® to market this house and ensured that there was a lot of traffic both online & in person viewing the house. This generated a lot of interest in the house with potential buyers.

Generating the best offer: IN RECORD TIME
The extensive marketing and the interest generated in the pool of potential buyers helped us get an offer on the house in record time! Within 36 hours of listing the house, Amar was able to solicit an offer from a potential buyer. What needs to be commended here, is Amar's negotiation skills. Gauging that this was a good potential, Amar ensured that he maximized the offer with minimal contingencies. He relentlessly went back and forth with the buyers' agent and drafted an offer that was too good to resist! Amar provided us solid advice & guidance on the different aspects of the offer. He recommended that we take the offer considering it was approx 200K more than the listing price and a complete offer with minimal chances of falling through. All this on a Sunday!

Managing the contingency period:
The mark of a good service provider lies in the follow through during the process and here is where Amar and his team excels! During the contingency period and before the closing, Amar showcased his professionalism in carefully handling the buyer requests and ensuring that the offer was executed completely.

Closing:
Amar and his team continued their excellent work and commitment by following up with every aspect of closing. Such due diligence, commitment to the clients, knowledge of the business, negotiation skills and high quality deliverable ensured that we closed our home within 3 weeks of listing it on the market for the highest per square feet price in Santa Clara till date!

Our HOME Buying experience was excellent and stress free with Amar, Sri and Team. It is not easy in the current market to get a single family home in Bay Area. I was very skeptical and almost lost hope, and early 2017 I put myself out of market. There came along my new to be home in market, both me and my wife liked the layout and we called Amar and Sri to proceed on it.

Amar and team wrote an excellent offer though quoted less than competition, the offer terms were lucrative. All credit goes to “Amar”.
Amar has strong negotiation skills and persuaded listing agent to accept our offer less than the competition offers. On decision day, Amar called me and congratulated me, “Our offer got accepted”.
Amar has excellent field connections, he introduced me to a lender who offered a competitive rate for 10% down, and the entire process was seamless. Being a new home Buyer, I was little panicking but Amar and team total made it seamless by doing all the heavy weight lifting for me. I was kept appraised on all the process. Amar is very efficient, and he stays top of the core process, and really makes the right move at right time.

I strongly recommend Amar and Team, if you are looking to Buy or Sell HOME.

Our Home buying experience was excellent with Amar and Sri Team. Amar and Sri have thorough knowledge about the area. They guided us in making the right decision based on their years of experience in real estate. Amar has very strong negotiation skills that saved us money on the house. In addition, the house has already gained some equity on it before we moving in. Their strong connection in the field, the entire process was seamless. We were informed in every step of the process by his team and constant call with Sri although the process was running in the background.

Amar is fast, reliable and responsible. He is very efficient and stays on top of everything. Answers all questions promptly and provides great professional support. I would recommend him to anyone buying/selling their homes.
Sri stays on the look out for new listings and never stopped searching for us
It was stressful, but Sri was so understanding and more than accommodating.

I don't know how we would have got through it without their team efforts!
I would like to highly recommend them ,whoever is looking to buy/sell home.

Hi Amar and Sri

We have all been through a very busy week. But we are all smiling at the end of it. You may have been through this anxious phase many times before, but you kept the same amount of persistence and energy as you did on the very first day we met you, and you fought hard for us in getting this house. That truly shows that you do care about your clients and you do this for the happiness it brings to your clients. For me and Archana, this is a once-in-a-lifetime experience to go through something like this and we are glad that we have you on our team.

Amar and Sri, you have been very humble and honest with us from the start. You encouraged us when we were making the right decisions along the way, and at the same time you did not force us into any particular house. These are very good qualities in a realtor. You treated each offer we put as though it was your own home and put your 100% effort into it. I have seen friends who went through 10-15 offers before getting a house, but with you we got our dream house in just 3. Even though we lost 2 houses before this, we always had a confident feeling going into each of those offers since convincing a seller into accepting an offer is a skill that you excel at, and none of the other buyer agents can even come close to it.

Your advice, experience and insights into the real estate and how to create a "winning offer" is an art, and we regard it highly. I know we have a long way to go in this transaction, but we have got a great start.

Some comments and advice from us to other buyers in the market, and why we recommend Amar 100%:

We started looking for houses sometime in January 2017 with our previous realtor. We had put offers on 2 houses and had lost both of them. Although our previous realtor was good, you need somebody who can win you the battle when it matters most. Good houses (houses that matches ALL your criteria) rarely comes to market, but when it does, you CANNOT afford to lose it. Because good houses in neighborhoods like Milpitas and Berryessa get atleast 20 offers! With the interest rate rise just around the corner and the inventory being at all-time low, we did not want our house hunt to take its own due course. Instead, we wanted to shift gears and go with someone who is proven to have won against all-cash-offers! There are not may realtors who can win against all-cash offers or offers with 40-50% downpayment! But Amar is one of those.

So on April 1st 2017, I communicated with Amar over email since he came highly recommended by our lender. I still remember my first phone call with Amar. We were out on a hike with friends, so I told Amar that I want to reschedule the meeting since we'd be dirty and sweaty from the hike. He said "dont worry about it, this is Bay Area and you are supposed to be hiking" and invited me to his Palo Alto office on a Sunday.

We are very happy to know you and to work with you. You were very personable and knowledgeable in answering our questions and helping us to make right decisions in the process of buying our first new home. We appreciate your quick response in setting up the appointments to view the houses, even with a short notice.

We were extremely impressive by your level of commitment; you continued to work with us to meet our needs and answered our questions right up to settlement date. As a first time buyer, it would have been really hard to go through process of buying a house. But with your help it went like a walk in the park.

We thank you for your hard work. And defiantly recommend you to the other buyers.

Sincerely ,
Deepika

Amar helped us to buy a property in Bay Area which was one of the hottest markets in the world. We provided our requirements, and he had found the best that out in the market with reasonable price and negotiated with the seller to get it secure as quickly as possible.

Amar has a group of people with wide knowledge in real estate area to execute the tasks with perfection and jet speed.

I am very much satisfied with our purchase of our house with very short time and highly recumbent to anyone.

Having been in Rotary for the past 34+ years, I know most of the Real Estate Agents and Brokers in Fremont including top agent. However in reviewing Amar Amarnath performance and execution of selling homes in my neighborhood I chose to use Amar as our agent for selling our property. Amar knows the right strategy to extensively market the home to sell at a higher price. I could have gone with some of those I have known for years. However I am not certain they could have accomplished what Amar was able to achieve.

Example: The sale of another Home 3 doors from us that was listed for $859K and sold for $910K by Amar Amarnath. The home in my opinion should have sold for $810K as they had done nothing in upgrades to the property including kitchen and bathrooms. The carpet was from the time it was originally built in 1988 and they had not done any painting or refinishing of the cabinets. I have mentioned to Amar that I would have discounted it by $50,000 as it needed a lot of work.

The entire home selling process from the beginning to the end was perfectly executed by Amar and team flawlessly. Amar personally involves himself and deliver absolutely the best results for his clients. Amar doesn’t not represent both buyer and seller for the same transaction. This clearly shows his level of standards and ethics in Real Estate business. His constant guidance in whole process is priceless. I certainly recommend him for you to work with. Hopefully this is beneficial for you.

It was our first home and we ventured into the real estate market with lots of anticipation. But right from the day we met Amar, we were put at ease. He answered all our queries and provided us the right insights. His team are good project managers and provided a clear and concise check list of tasks and who is responsible for carrying them out. This made the home buying process clear for us and made it easy to navigate the process. Their valuable advice helped us find our dream home.

Amar, Sri and his team are simply amazing. They provide constant timely updates, are very proactive and highly diligent. By working with Amar, you can be rest assured that you will be guided through the entire home buying process right from day one until closing.

Amar’s excellent negotiation skills combined with a hardworking and resourceful team makes them the BEST in Bay Area.

Amar and his team made all the steps of home buying experience a breeze . This was our first home in US, but he and his team worked with us educating us in the process . Right from pre approval to putting down the offer to closing the escrow and closing after due diligence at home inspection his team guides us through and arranged everything so home buying was a breeze.

When we hear about our other friends putting offer at so many homes and not getting , I feel lucky to have found Amar who knew the market so knew what we exactly needed to do to get the offer , no less and no more . He also negotiated with the owners to the Max .

We still cannot believe we are proud owners of a home just after a month of seriously being in the market and got the first home we put our offer on.

5 years ago I felt buying a house in bay area would be a hard reality for me given the rise in house prices and if we need to buy an affordable house I would need to go all the way of bay area. I was still contemplating buying a house, then one of colleagues asked me to meet Amar and check with him. Me and my wife met Amar at his office and told we were looking for and boom 2 month later I was an owner of a single family home in rising Milpitas area.

Even though this sounds like a fairy tale, I should say it was the hard work and drive of Amar and his team to help pull it through.
Amar and Sri send me list of places for open house to visit and when we liked one the home,we let him know about it. I thought we were already late to put an offer as I didn’t have a pre approval. Amar pulled his strings and introduced me to Stacy for mortgage and within 24 hours and I had a preapproval and the offer was submitted.

I was told the house had around 7 offers most of them more than what I offered to pay. Amar and his team helped to negotiate and got the deal done and now within 2 days my offer was approved. I couldn’t believe they pull it off. Anyway after this is the next set of steps to start the financing for the house. In this process, I wanted to check with other lender for better rate and the bank promised that could provide a better rate than what Stacy provided. I conveyed my decision to Stacy regarding this and went ahead with other lender.

But this is where the real game started, the other lender wanted documents after documents and after a week said they wouldn’t be able to really my case through with their underwriter and they were still trying their best. I talked to Stacy and Amar after that and they understood the situation and pulled this out for me. To be honest throughout the whole process I was not still committal to Stacy whether I would go with her and it was Amar and his team who convinced Stacy to continue with my financial process and glad they did.

Iam not sure if any lender would be ready to do so much work when you are uncommitted and I am glad Stacy really decided help me. I think the reason she was ready to pursue the case was because the trust she had in Amar. Thanks again Amar for this…
They handled all the paper work, went through the house inspection report and answered any questions I asked. I know sometimes I irritated Amar by asking him multiple questions as novice buyer.

I should say this---if you are looking for energetic, aggressive and honest person to help you with your house search I would say talk to Amar…He would understand your needs and get you the right house. I am glad I reached to Amar and thank him and his team on behalf of my wife and myself to buy our first house as a couple.

Thank you Amar…Wish you more success.
