Exceptional Care, Every Step of the Way | The Kirsten Reilly Team
When I got my real estate license in the spring of 2003, I made a promise to give it one full year of dedicated effort before even considering giving up. Now, 21 years later, I can’t imagine doing anything else.
I feel so happy to have built a reputation that now generates new clients based on word of mouth and a successful, local portfolio in San Jose, especially in Cambrian, where we live.
In 2020, my husband Seth joined me to become my full-time real estate partner, leaving his 20 year role at Adobe in San Jose. He loved his time there, but he liked the thought of doing something different and more entrepreneurial, and frankly I needed the help! We were not sure what his role would be initially, but it evolved into the perfect fit for him, and for our team.
Here is how we work together: I lead the team as the head of Sales and Strategy. So when you call us, I will be the first person you talk to. We will discuss ideas on timing, pricing, the market, your move plan, etc. We will have an initial call of about 15-30 minutes, and then we will have an in-person listing appointment at your home to go over the plan, pricing, and process in more depth and answer any questions you have.
If we decide to work together, Seth will start the process with you by obtaining home inspections and bids for possible home improvements to consider. Once you are comfortable with the plan, he will coordinate with all the vendors you hire to get the work done on time, sticking to the budget. He will send you a very clear and detailed timeline of work, photography, and the listing launch so that you are clear on all the dates.
When the home is photographed and ready, I take over as your main point of contact again. I will meet with you to finalize your list price by looking at the latest sales data. I’ll publish your home on the MLS, carefully selecting the best photos, creating personalized ad copy for your home, and finalizing our marketing materials. I will also handle all the questions that come in from buyers and will help you navigate offers and negotiations. Then, when you’re in escrow with a buyer, I will oversee the escrow to make sure we cross the finish line smoothly, keeping you informed along the way.
I hope this explanation helps you feel comfortable reaching out to us if you ever need us or have a question! Our door is always open and we love being a resource as you explore your ideas for moving.
