Here is a link to our website. I do some work with my cousin , Nicole Ventura-Wallace, as well as my Dad, Frank Ventura, both of whom are longtime Real Estate Professionals. When Patricia moved out of the Bay Area, I was flattered that she had selected us to work with her database of buyers and sellers.

There are many 3rd party real estate websites which have algorithms that try to predict your home's market value. Some examples are Zillow, Redfin, Homesnap & Realtor.com. If you type in your address into each one of these, you will notice very different estimates ranging from $2,063,473 to $2,317,100...all of which I feel are too low. The only true way to get an accurate assessment on market value is a custom Comparative Market Analysis (CMA). I was able to take a mixture of Active, Pending and recently Sold properties in your area with similar characteristics. I primarily selected properties that were between 1800-2400 square feet with lot sizes of less than 10,000 square feet. We will discuss this in length and in the meantime, I will be reaching out to the agents who have active listings or pending sales in your area. This really gives us the most real-time pulse on the market. I would recommend we pay close attention to the property located at 6717 Mount Pakron Drive. The characteristics are very similar, and according to the agent, they are in contract close to $2,700,000! This would represent the 2nd highest sale in all of Almaden Valley for a home of this size.

After a longtime franchise partnership with Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate, we are now part of Corcoran Global Living, a franchise of Corcoran Group.

I work closely with Aerial Canvas, one of the top Real Estate Marketing and Content Management companies in the space. No expense will be spared in making your home show its very best. We will leverage high quality photography, video, lifestyle footage & drone footage, 3D Matterport tour and twilight shots.

Here is the showcase video from my listing in Morgan Hill located at 18774 White Moon Drive. My clients, Eric and Jodi Barnum had leveraged CARTUS for their relocation program as they moved to Lake Oswego, OR. We try to capture lifestyle footage in our showcase videos to not only highlight aspects of the home itself, but also the neighborhood, town, schools, etc. Given the amazing sense of community, top rated schools, swim club, library and hiking trails, Almaden Valley is one of the most highly sought after neighborhoods in all the South Bay. It is always important for us to tell a story about your home, and Aerial Canvas has been an integral partner in bringing that story to the consumer.

Pricing is key in this market. With such thin inventory in all of Santa Clara County, pricing a home attractively will lead to more interest, more showings and ultimately more offers. This creates leverage on the Seller side, and will result in more favorable pricing and terms. Ideally, I prefer to price a home slightly below its market value in an effort to attract higher interest and foot traffic. The example you see in this site shows a listing next to Apple Campus that was listed for $1,699,000 and sold for $2,215,000 after over 20 offers! I wouldn't necessarily feel as comfortable with that extreme strategy right now. With interest rates rapidly on the rise, I have seen the number of offers on homes cool off a bit. Make no mistake, we are still seeing bidding wars powered by multiple offers, but instead of 10-15 offers on homes, I have been seeing 4-6. With the pending sales I have provided in the market analysis, I feel a lot more bullish with a list price of $2,198,000 - $2,298,000; however, if we had this conversation in January or February, I would have likely recommended a list price of $1,998,000.

See what some of my clients have said about their experiences working with me.

You have heard of the 80/20 rule, well in Real Estate, its more of the 90/10 rule. 10% of the agents make up approximately 90% of the transactions. As part of Top Agent Network, I have the ability to take marketing and networking options to a new level. I always work with integrity, and work by the motto: "No deal is more important than the client." I carry that same level of professionalism in how I deal with other agents in the community.

I was flattered to have been recognized by Real Trends as a Top Real Estate Professional in the State of California. Out of approximately 425,000 licensed Real Estate Agents in the State, I was ranked #483 in Individual Volume.

One of the most important team members throughout this transaction will be our Escrow Officer. Over the years, I have worked closely with Lisa Nunes of Chicago Title Company.

In addition to all marketing expenses, inspections and staging will be paid by me as part of my listing package.
