I found this Real Estate company, Bay Broker through Google and was drawn to their intuitive MLS search. I had tried a few national Realty websites but this one seemed more straightfoward gave me a simple option to search for my new home. I met with Steve Atkinson and I understand he is the Broker for the company. With so many Realtors in the Bay Area I thought it would be wise to trust an actual Broker for the experience he offered.
Mr Atkinson listened to all my concerns, guiding me away from properties that I thought seemed OK. He seems to have a good knowledge about construction and this was a bonus on the older style of home I was drawn to. We made a few (lowball) offers and this served as a wake up call that it is difficult to 'steal' a home in a great area. Having said that, I believe that Steve was excellent in his presentation of my offer to the Sellers and I am more than happy with my final purchase price and the level of service through to closing.
This is my 2nd home purchase in the US and I would highly recommend both Steve Atkinson and his company Bay Broker. A true professional and a great guy.
A 5 Star Experience!
