My introduction into real estate began at an early age listening to my parents routinely talk about bad tenants, increasing operating expenses and net returns. They were small-time landlords of about 4 single-family homes in Sacramento, CA and I learned from them the importance of staying on top of one’s real estate investment. My father was a general contractor, and from him I learned that no big project is intimidating if you simply broke down the tasks into small steps - very useful in everyday life! In college, I forayed into different fields - Speech & Communications, Advertising and Motion Graphic Animation - all of which help me today in negotiations, marketing, thinking creatively, and paying particular attention to even the tiniest details of my real estate transactions. Real estate is both challenging and rewarding with plenty of opportunities to expand one's knowledge in market trends, tax advantages, cash on cash returns, renovations. The past two years had been very exciting and led me to several commercial listing closings. I’ve successfully sold medical offices (called business brokering) and their commercial properties in California and on the east coast specifically Vermont, Florida, Indiana, Maine. I have worked with investors analyzing the profitability of Retail buildings and Offices, and negotiated with commercial brokers, lenders, investors and their financial analysts. This year, I am directing my focus on helping homeowners sell their properties and negotiate better deals on their behalf. My goal is to help homeowners get through complex transactions as smoothly as possible, provide stress-free sales experiences and get my clients the most for their property which they rightfully deserve.

My Promise to You

ZERO UPFRONT COSTS ON HOME IMPROVEMENTS

I’ll have your home painted, cleaned, updated and repaired to get it competitively priced in this market at no upfront cost to you! Once the transformation is complete, your home will go on the market. Reports show that homes are sold quicker and at higher prices when they are updated as buyers love a move-in ready home. You’ll pay for the services when one of these happens - your home sells, you terminate your listing agreement with me, or 1 year has passed from the home improvement date.

EXTENSIVE MARKETING

Your home will have a video and/or 3D tour and a website to show its features, the neighborhood, amenities, and stunning photos taken by a photographer. It will have a custom-designed property statement and will be broadcasted through e-blasts weekly. I will put to work all the resources I have to connect your home with several buyers looking in the area and with wish lists that match everything your home offers, and will encourage all the brokers and agents to tell all their buyers about your home, and follow-up with everyone that showed interest.

WITH YOU ALL THE WAY

We will work together on a solid plan that makes sure your house will not be sitting on the market collecting dust, losing time, money and momentum. I will suggest and advice you on strategies to make the selling process moving as smoothly and as quickly as possible so that you can move on to your next adventure. I will make sure all the buyers we are dealing with are qualified, and I will represent you in all offer presentations to negotiate the best possible price and terms so you come out a winner. I will also handle all the follow-up necessary during escrow, and deliver your check at closing.

Testimonials

Ethan & Julia

Aileen is amazing! We initially started out our house hunt with another realtor who was less-than-accommodating, but then we met Aileen at an Open House... From the very first moment, Aileen was proactive, enthusiastic, and very willing to work around our busy schedules. She sent us frequent email updates about new houses on the market, gave us "insider information" about the state of the real estate market, and drove us around every weekend to look at houses together. When we were ready to put down an offer on a house, she made use of her professional connections to make sure that we were able to get the best deal with the least amount of hassle. She remained highly involved and responsive even after we closed on the house and helped us navigate the many little logistical issues that popped up. She is always so responsive by text--she will answer messages within minutes at almost all hours of the day, every day of the week. Aileen was really easy to work with and made us feel that we were her priority. Anyone would be lucky to have her as their realtor!

Devin

Aileen found me a really good deal. I don't buy unless the numbers makes sense, so I typically look at a lot of factors and Aileen's input were always so helpful. She's thorough and so responsive which I really appreciate. She made things a lot smoother and I know if it wasn't for her taking charge of things it would be so much more complicated. Now I own my little piece of San Francisco heaven, and she still checks in with me once in a while. I'm so happy I found her.

Erica

My family owns a building in San Francisco and we were dealing with a toxic renter who didn't pay rent, smoked in the common areas, damaged the unit, wouldn't let in the maintenance, you name it. We live out-of-state and wanted desperately to sell the unit. Aileen provided us with real estate guidance, helped us get in touch with professionals who helped us, and kept us positive throughout litigation. We're so grateful and learned SO much from her during our time together.
