Sue and Petra were AMAZING from our first informational contact to list my Grandparent's home for my Mom, through the closing of it's sale. We couldn't have had a more knowledgeable, professional, friendly, hard-working, organized, positive, honest, conscientious duo working for us! Sue and Petra were working for my Mom; however my husband and I helped coordinate everything for her. From our first conversation to list the home, they had a detailed timeline, estimated costs for staging, recommended repairs and updating; all to maximize her investment. They took care of everything and EVERY detail! Their teamwork seemed like we had 24 hour service throughout the process. They followed their timeline, had more than the typical amount of offers to present to us after the first weekend of open houses, brought us qualified buyers, and we had an accepted offer in less than a week! (And $200,000+ over list price!) Thank you Sue and Petra for making a difficult process for my mom a positive one! (For her and for us!) If you are in the market to list or sell in the Bay Area market, I would DEFINITELY recommend them!!nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; ~ Lisa amp; Ken, Burlingame

Sue and Petra are great, extremely competent real estate agents. They came to us recommended by a friend, and we couldn't be more satisfied. They helped us buy our home in Burlingame, in a very tough market, at a very competitive price point. We have been living in the area for a while, and knew the market and what we wanted fairly well - however, when the right house came along and it was time to execute, Sue and Petra's experience and assistance was priceless! Petra handled everything from writing the offer to closing the deal, offering advice and assurances along the way. Sue and Petra are not only very competent, but are also super nice and extremely professional - a big plus when it comes to their good relationship with many local agents. If you are looking for agents who will have your best interests in mind, look no further!nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;~ Marica amp; Miro, Burlingame

We just got the keys to our new home in Redwood City and could not have done it without Petra and Sue! nbsp;We knew the Bay Area housing market was challenging, but the reality of the situation is even more crazy than one can imagine. nbsp;You really have to work with excellent agents to have any chance to get a home. From the start Petra and Sue were honest with us about the market and presented several strategies that were ultimately very useful. nbsp;Sue and Petra work well as a team and because there are two of them, they were almost always available at a moment's notice to show us a home or present an offer. nbsp;And they always presented our offers in person, which is essential in this market. nbsp;Petra drove over an hour to the East Bay to present our winning offer and was the only agent to go in person! And Sue took us on a tour of homes on her Birthday weekend! nbsp;When getting the keys for our new home, we were greeted by Sue and Petra with a bottle of nice champagne and a beautiful orchid. nbsp;You really can't do better than these ladies. If you follow their lead you will get the house you want even in the most competitive market in the country.

Sue and Petra are a fabulous team. They helped us buy our first home in the Bay Area several years ago, and then this past Spring they helped us sell it. They did an amazing job of brining in multiple high quality offers on our home. On offer day we were able to negotiate to bring the sale price in at way over the asking. We were thrilled! It was incredible! Shortly after, they helped us purchase our new home for an amazing price in a tricky situation. They are the best of the best and we recommend them to everyone we know!nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; ~Abby amp; Ivan, Redwood City

nbsp;

We could not recommend these ladies highly enough! They helped us both sell our first home and buy our next one, all within the span of one month and with incredible knowledge and professionalism. Petra was the lead on both deals, with Sue chiming in whenever it seemed appropriate. Petra kept us frequently updated by phone, email and text through the process. Every step of the way, my husband and I were impressed by the legwork Petra did to answer all of our questions (and we had a lot of them!) - it seemed like she was always one step ahead of us, which is exactly what you want from your agent in this crazy market. We followed their advice, and they sold our home off market in a single weekend, and found us our next home off market as well. We were able to put in a quick offer with a fast turnaround, thanks to their proactive work on our behalf. Perhaps the highest compliment I can pay Petra and Sue is that they armed us with information but never pressured us into making a decision we weren't comfortable with. We felt empowered to make the best choices for ourselves, and knew they would represent our interests as both buyers and sellers. So happy with the results - go team!nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; ~Purnima amp; Vivek, San Mateo

"Sue and Petra function as a first-rate team andnbsp;seamlessly combine theirnbsp;deep set of skills successfully selling our long-time family home in Burlingame. They helped us get the house properly staged, then carefully built interest, developed major momentum, and usingnbsp;creative deal strategiesnbsp;maximized the sale price selling at more than 6% above the list price. They are truly a total pleasure to work with. We could not more highly recommend them for your real transaction."

Sue and Petra are so wonderful. They helped us to understand the whole process and since we live out of the area, they arranged for so much. They understand the real estate pricing completely and their expertise helped us to get the ultimate price for our family home. We had been in the home 58 years so they also understood that we needed to say good bye to a whole world of memories and they gave us that time. I would recommend these two to anyone and have already done that..nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; ~Linda, Burlingame

nbsp;
Our family has known Sue and Petra since two years ago when we bought our Burlingame house. nbsp;They have helped us with a great negotiation process during the market down turn. nbsp;Ever since then, we continued to work with them for the next house hunting as they are just so professional, knowledgeable, responsible, and above all, friendly and considerate. nbsp;It has been so pleasant to work with both of them, as they are almost part of the family. nbsp;Every few months, Sue and Petra invited us to meet them and modify our searching criteria. nbsp;Whenever there is a good opportunity, we will never miss their calls. nbsp;Every time when we put an offer, they showed us the thorough market research and help us with the strategic bidding. nbsp;I cannot forget how many times Petra has driven us (and my parents) around different neighborhoods for the comparative study. Now, we just bought another house in Milbrae and we have won the offer in such a competitive market because they've been fighting hard for us, from the offer price to the negotiation/match-up. nbsp;Even after the offer is signed, they still helped us get connected with the original owner, send us new home appliance discount coupon, etc, nbsp;like the service will never stop. We will continued to work with this great team for the next target, as we trust them.nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; ~ Guang amp; Lu, Millbrae

Dear Sue, On that day of your class last fall I recall debating whether I should bother to attend. There is no doubt it was one of the better decisions Irsquo;ve ever made! Your incredible knowledge, and especially your boundless enthusiasm and energy made choosing you and Petra a no-brainer. What an effective team you are. I especially appreciated your patience, guidance and good cheer! nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; nbsp;~ Bob, Burlingame

My fiance and I met Sue and Petra at one of their house buying seminars in Burlingame. nbsp;We were newly engaged and I knew we would be needing to sell my condo at some point in the near future. nbsp;From the absolute get-go, we clicked with these dynamic gals. nbsp;Less than two weeks after the seminar, they visited, looked around my condo and pitched a marketing plan like no other. nbsp;Their enthusiastic approach inspired us. nbsp;Having lived 25 years in my wee little one bedroom condo, I had a job and a half of clutter removal to do. nbsp;In the end, through their support and encouragement, my condo looked designer polished! nbsp;Their recommendations of home inspectors, handymen, movers, cleaners, etc. are all top notch, proven professionals. nbsp;We started our relationship with Sue and Petra as business partners and they have now become friends. nbsp; We know we will be needing to move on to a larger place after our marriage, and we will definitely be looking to Sue and Petra for their guidance and assistance in selling again. nbsp; I was very satisfied with the price I received for my condo and the outstanding processing of the sale, from offer review to closing of escrow (in a record 8 days!) nbsp;You just can't go wrong with the Sue and Petra Team!!!nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; ~ Christine amp; Alex, Burlingame

nbsp;
Sue and Petra are a simply awesome team!! They came recommended to me via a friend and I'm really glad I went through my first home buying process with them. All through they were very patient with my questions and were genuinely concerned with finding a home that was the right fit. Come offer time they really helped step it up against the other offers and beat out a few all cash ones! Would highly recommend them whether you are looking to buy or sell a house!nbsp; nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp; nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;~Rommel, Redwood Shores

"The Sue and Petra team helped us buy our home in San Mateo in April 2013. We consider ourselves savvy buyers, but in this extremely competitive market, it would have been impossible for us to complete a successful purchase without the expertise of this team of realtors. Sue amp; Petra worked relentlessly to make sure that they
