Michael Valentine – Realty World Acclaim

When it came time to sell our condo in San Ramon, we reached out to Michael and it was a great decision. Since this was our first time selling a home, we had a lot of questions and Mike was very patient and guided us through the entire way.
We felt very comfortable through the entire process from start to close. Mike provided guidance as to what we should be focused on, and what could be left alone, as we prepped our place for sale. He helped us determine an appropriate listing price and he took it over from there.
Mike worked very hard and delivered results. Within a week of listing we had multiple strong offers well over asking price. This was even with other similar competing units up for sale at the same time.
During escrow the buyer hit a road block with their current lender due to an insurance issue with the HOA. But instead of having the deal fall through, Mike was able to get us back on track through his connections and got the buyer’s agent in touch with a lender that could work around the insurance issue.
As a first time home seller, I’m glad we worked with Michael. Him being very responsive and his clear communications skills made us feel at ease and we would definitely work with Mike again in the future.

I can’t express enough how grateful I am for all of Michael’s services. I purchased a home in San Jose as a short term investment. He not only found the property for me but also walked me through the whole renovate/​flipping process, and ultimately sold the home for me as well (for sale for only about 25 days. pretty darn good). His professionalism and hard work was key in every transaction. Thank you Michael for all your efforts. I appreciate you driving all the way down there each time ! Keep up the great work !!!

When we arrived at a decision to sell our home, we turned to Mike for some professional and friendly help. As we all know, the market hasn’t been in the sellers favor and we were concerned, but thanks to Mike’s wonderful people skills and great marketing techniques, we had multiple offers within just a couple of days. No one could believe our home was in escrow within one week and neither could we!
We were so appreciative of Mike’s considerate and nonintrusive manners when it came to representing our home because so many agents often seem salesy or too aggressive. Unlike others, Mike is honest, trustworthy, and very timely with correspondences.
Our home sale process, from MLS listing to close of escrow took only appoximately one month. We are so glad to have trusted Mike with what could have been an ugly situation. Thanks again, Mike!!!
