Making Dreams Reality Pat Burgess

The Pat Burgess Team Empire Realty Associates Danville, CA

This interest paired with her sound marketing and remodel advice hints at why she sold 30 homes in just the last year.

Pat Burgess & Family For local top producer, Pat Burgess, bridging the gap between dreams and reality is just another day’s work. Nationally ranked in the top 2% of Empire Realty Associates, Pat’s work ethic and roundthe-clock commitment are just part of her recipe for success.

She serves the entire 680 corridor, and specializes in Danville, Alamo, Blackhawk, San Ramon and Walnut Creek. Pat brings a disciplined, corporate marketing background to the table. Her vast experience built through years with AT&T, IBM and her own multi-million dollar IT consulting firm, bring unique benefits to both buyers and sellers.

“Because of my background, I don’t market a home focusing on how many bedrooms or baths it has. I visualize what the house really means,” says Pat. “I see the lifestyle each home offers and what it could become.”

A natural hard worker, who put herself through Boston College, Pat has a track record of success.

In 2008, her first year as a realtor she ranked in the Presidents Club, and recently received the prestigious 5 Star award.

Born into a family filled with passion for architecture, Pat exhibits a natural love for construction.

She is a firm believer in presenting a model-ready property. Pat practices meticulous staging and learns the home’s history before crafting distinct marketing literature. Knowing 98% of homes are viewed online before purchasing, she always has superb photography to portray each home’s maximum value.

While she enjoys marketing and negotiating, Pat’s true love for the business comes from helping clients manifest their dreams. She takes time getting to know her buyers’ likes, dislikes, commutes, and goals before finding them the right home.

“It’s not like when I was selling technology,” says Pat. “Now I am helping clients turn dreams, into reality.”

Yet, her work for others doesn’t end at the office.

As a 20-year Danville resident and natural leader, Pat rarely passes up an opportunity to make her community a better place. A dedicated Danville Sycamore Rotary member, she received the “Rotarian of the Year” and “Rookie of the Year” awards, and currently serves as the co-chair for community service.

Some of Pat’s commendable Rotarian work includes instrumental roles in Wardrobe for Opportunity, Harmony Home and the Contra Costa Food Bank. She’s also been involved in updating the Del Amigo High School library into a state-of-the-art media center.

Pat also founded a local support group, Divorce Angel, after seeing the lack of available resources for those going through troublesome divorces. This

“There is nothing so kingly as kindness, and nothing so royal as truth” — ­Pat Burgess

Danville-based group meets every first Tuesday of the month, providing legal, financial, mental health and real estate advice for those seeking practical and emotional support.

“Our group has been such a helpful resource,” says Pat. “We’ve had members tell us it literally saved their lives. That’s pretty powerful to hear.”

When she’s not working with clients, or helping the community, Pat enjoys golfing, skiing and spending time at her Tahoe cabin whenever possible. After raising 5 kids, 3 stepchildren and 2 of her own, Pat is a proud mother, daughter, and wife above all else.

“I’ve pulled over to the side of the road many times for my family,” she says. “Because in the end, all that matters is, that you’re there for the ones you love.”

Pat attributes much of her happiness to her husband, Paul, who will is joining her team this year.

An accomplished businessman experienced in finance, sales and marketing, Pat looks forward to the added benefits he will bring to her clientcentric team.

Since You Asked...

by Judy-Lynn Kiersey

Q: If it’s true that there are more home buyers than there are homes for sale, then why should I pay an agent to sell my home? I should find a buyer pretty easily. I’m thinking about just paying an agent to do the paperwork.

What are your comments?

Finding a buyer is just the start. Closing the sale properly is a journey that requires skilled guidance. That is why most people rely on an experienced real estate brokerage to not only handle the myriad of paperwork involved in a real estate sale, but to also handle about 180 typical actions-including

research, procedures, processes and reviews.

So, if you try to sell your home without an agent, you either won’t do all of these things yourself, or they don’t get done. That could spell trouble for both you, and your buyer.

either because they can’t qualify or have buyer’s remorse. A good and experienced agent can often spot ‘red-flags’ in the early stages of a transaction to help avoid costly delays or even worse, the risk of litigation.

I imagine the reason that many ‘For Sale

By Owners’ want to sell their home without being represented by a REALTOR is because they think they’ll save the commission.

However, it has been proven time and again that a seller will actually put more money in their pocket by hiring a real estate agent who is a member of the local Multiple Listing Service. In today’s market, exposure to all potential buyers could bring you several offers to choose from.

The bottom line is this: your home is probably one of the largest investments you’ve ever made and you are probably not the best negotiator on your own home. If the buyer comes with an agent representing them, then who is looking out for your interests? Add to that all the heavy regulations regarding real estate transactions, the extreme importance of proper disclosures and the complexities of making certain your buyer is ready, willing and able to close the transaction. Why would you ever want to go it alone?

A skilled agent will negotiate on your behalf to net you the highest price, with the most favorable terms for your situation.

Keep in mind that many buyers make offers on properties that they never actually buy,
