“Not only did First Team find an atypical buyer in five weeks, but they also obtained the highest price ever for our tract…They proved who they are and their portfolio is a mirror of what they can do.” – Jim Moos “From the listing interview through our successful close of escrow, I felt First Team was the most professional, efficient and effective real estate company that I had ever used…Many, many thanks!” – Swanna Blaue

COMPANY

“We interviewed several companies and REALTORS ® trying to find the right one to represent us. No one came close to the professional approach offered by First Team. First Team was prepared to spend a substantial amount of time and effort marketing our property and, more importantly, they lived up to their commitment for the entire duration from listing to closing.” – Mario & Diane Antoci


OUR CLIENTS A R E TA L K I N G A B O U T U S WHAT THEY’RE SAYI N G …

“With the market in flux and more homes coming on the market, it was important to us to get our home sold so that we could move to Chicago. The end result is that our home has now closed escrow while others are still on the market with price reductions. We really appreciated First Team’s knowledge and systems. This was our first home sale experience and it was a good one!” – Raymond & Jennifer Chow

“With First Team’s skillful negotiation, the offer I was presented and subsequently accepted worked out to be a little more than what I had been asking for, and both parties were completely satisfied with the deal.” – Tom M.
