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 conv... More

"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, ... More

Not only was he incredibly support... More

?In south bay area, buying a home with good schools and sub 1 million dollars price is not an easy thing.

I am sitting down to review our home buying experience with Amar and I am completely at a loss for words. I do not know where to begin.

My husband and I started looking for homes with Amar in July 2012, when the real estate market was extremely competitive. The inventory was low and the good homes were going for $30... More
