Amar’s thorough analysis of the real estate market and an in-depth understanding of the buyer’s expectations makes him uniquely positioned to navigate tough real estate markets. He is professional and systematic in laying down his role and his expectations from his clients. We had the first-hand experience of this when we approached him for our single-family home needs. Once we finalized the home we wanted and the price we wanted to pay, Amar was able to negotiate a highly satisfying deal for us well below the listing price, keeping us informed us at every step during the negotiations. With an able partner in Sri Amar, we highly recommend Amar and the team as a buyer’s agent for your home buying needs.Print this entry

I was introduced to Amar by a good friend of mine. After meeting with Amar, I understood that I was not just hiring a Realtor®. I understood that by hiring Amar, I hired a well seasoned, experienced person who commits to his clients. Amar first presented a road map for the whole process and guided me at each stage very patiently. Always he was relaxed and pleasant to deal with. In the process I have asked him several questions and he kindly answered them in detail. He treated the whole process like project and he finished tasks by the time agreed with seller, which gave great confidence about him. Amar understands his client’s need and taste and finds a house to match them. Also he responds to every email/call very quickly. At several stages, when seller or seller agent disagreed, I thought I may not get this house, but he never paused for a moment. He just workaround and finished the deal. At every stage he made sure that everyone in our family was happy about the house. Amar never pushed me on anything; he explained things and stood aside until I make decision. When seller and his agent said that they will not pay anything toward closing cost, he went and negotiated and got nearly 3K in credit from them. When shopping around for loan he introduces best loan officers who directly work in big banks and I got the best interest rate. He always stands by client side even if the situation comes to staining his business relationship with his associates. Amar also understood that I have a full time job and scheduled all the meetings as per my calendar. Also he helped to expedite and complete property inspection at short notice at no extra cost. He kept calling and checking even a month after closing the sale about any issues in the house. Looking back, I didn’t have to do much work to get the house. Amar took care of most of the work. One cannot go wrong by working with Amar. At the end, I not only got a good house, but also a good friend, Amar Print this entry

We were looking for a Realtor® to help us in our Home buying process. I’m so glad we found Amar on LinkedIn. He and his associates helped and guided us throughout the whole process from house hunting to loan application and closing seemlessly. Amar was highly committed, professional and co-ordinated every phase, so we did not have to worry about deadlines. With his great team and strong network, we were able to close on the Home we loved even in a multiple offer situation. Todays Real estate market, the quality of professional service and taking actions pro-actively matters a lot to produce exceptional results. Our Home buying experience was straightforward and highly satisfactory. I would happily recommend Amar to any of my friends looking to buy a Home. Print this entry

It was a great pleasure working with Amar, Sri and his team, I can’t say enough of how great experience it was! Amar was extremely professional, Buying a single family house in the bay area in a rising economy is not easy. There is ALL CASH offer at $K and willing to go much HIGHER and 10 days CLOSING. But Our offer is 10K less and loan offer with 10% down. It’s one of the most COMPLEX and CHALLENGED offer for Amar. We lost all our hopes on this home, we don’t know how Amar work with them, it’s very complex situation, how he convinced them. After 3 to 4 days later, he gave us a congratulation email “your offer got accepted”. Still we cannot believe he work out this Home. It’s miracle. Because of Amar we got this home In Bay area. Buying a home in Bay area is our whole family dream. Because of Amar it got fulfilled. Thanks is a SMALL WORD. He spend lot of time on our transaction. we never forget this help. Really Appreciated your time and help. We really appreciate your help in going extra mile in saving me big $$$$$ in closing costs by negotiating with the lender and the seller agent. His tie-ups and constant checking with mortgage lender helped us keep the loan processing on track with a closing in 30 days! He was honest to me as to what was going on. Kept me updated on what was happening from beginning to the end of closing. Amar went above and beyond to help us find the right house. We HIGHLY recommend Amar to any buyer/seller. This sale of the property feels like a miracle for our family. Print this entry

Amar handled the entire rental transaction in a very professional way. Starting with an initial home inspection, he guided us through what needs to be done to make the home even more desirable. On the marketing front he did a phenomenal job of composing a virtual tour of the property (which was actually going beyond the call of duty for a rental property) and posted it on multiple web sites to grab “eyes” from potential clients. One such client was from out of state; and working with him, Amar closed the deal at a record pace. The property was rented within a week and it involved several phone calls, emails, sharing of relevant documents and performing the needed background checks. Outcome was an excellent experience all around in terms of saving costs, renting earlier than what the client had planned, and closing the deal quickly. My wife and I are very happy to endorse Amar Amarnath as an excellent real-estate professional. Thank you. Nagendra & Padma Print this entry

We are so thrilled with our new home in San Jose! Thank you so much to both Sri and Amar for all that you did to help us through this process! Bay area is a tough market for home buyers, especially so for first time home buyers. We needed a Realtor® who could help us navigate the waters without getting overwhelmed and deal with multiple fronts of price and location, negotiations, state of the house and disclosures, fitting our family’s needs and desires, handling multiple offers in a very competitive environment, that too in a very short closing time. To get the home we want, there are lot of pieces of the puzzle that need to fit together. Effort, luck, persistence and most of all professional skills to make good on opportunities. Amar and Sri have been many pieces of that puzzle! Throughout our long search for our home, they have been patiently answering all our questions, doubts, helping us understand different aspects of home buying, helping us learn what to look for beyond our home checklist that we started with, thinking about real issues of long term ownership, weighing pros and cons. Their experience has been very valuable for the critical time of placing an offer, particularly for setting up a strategy. We had to deal with multiple offers situation, on a non­typical offer deadline schedule, and they helped us put a pre­emptive offer and still hit the price range without getting over­extended, which is a common risk for such pre­emptive offer situation. Sri and Amar’s team has been very professional in the execution. Despite many moving pieces and uncertainties involved, every step was done on time, every small detail was followed up. They have been particularly good at evaluating disclosures, combing with a fine brush, seeking any problems and risks. Their biggest strength we saw in them was negotiating the best deal, attempting multiple approaches, persisting beyond reasonable efforts to make the deal happen. Once the offer was accepted, they were still involved in all the finer details, keeping close tabs on the escrow closure, collaborating with multiple people, the seller’s agent, title company, home warranty and insurance, keeping the end­goal in sight. At the end of the day, it’s not the ‘cozy worry free home buying experience’, but the real learning experience that we very much appreciate! Thanks again for all the help and assistance, suggestions and guidance. We won’t hesitate to recommend you to anyone! To get the home you want in this bay area market, Amar and Sri are the Realtors® you would want on your side! We wish Sri and Amar continued success, good health, and happiness! Print this entry

Our Home buying experience with Amar in simple words has been outstanding. Amar truly has a very unique approach to guiding you through the whole process. To start with before he gets into any transactional details, Amar completely eliminates the inherent fear/skepticism/stress that exists when handling real estate, which is particularly important in a high stress market like the bay area. Getting into details, Amar first focused very specific about our needs and area preferences. Once we are clear what we needed, it was a matter of meeting all the requirements and liking a home. Amar made it happen with his proven strategy, human touch, and powerful negotiation strategies. Most importantly, Amar is extremely knowledgeable about pros and cons of real estate. Obvious drawbacks that an amateur would miss he tends to highlight like a true professional. Lastly, Amar has established an eco system of professionals that make the entire process stress free….starting with the offer to mortgage, insurance to post purchase house maintenance. Amar saved lot of money in entire process which is beyond our expectations. Amar is a one stop shop for real estate needs for any one in bay area. Print this entry
