Gary Clair

We recommend Gary St. Clair for many reasons. One is his great knowledge of the real estate market. Secondly, he is a man of both personal and professional integrity and very easy to work with, and will go out of his way to help get things done. - Apr 29, 2015Kirk & Jill Storms

We were still living in Colorado when we were looking for a house to buy in Bay area so we needed a real estate agent who would understand our needs, can provide objective knowledge about the area and tell us potentials on each houses we were interested in. After my husband talked to Gary for the first time, it was clear he would be the one we should work with. His thirty year experience as a real estate agent in the bay area trememdously helped us understanding the Silicon Valley real estate market and getting to know neighborhoods. As we went through the process buying the house we are now live in, we found Gary to be a highly attentive agent and he patiently showed us over 50 houses and did not pressure us thoughout our search. He promptly responded our emails and phone calls and made efficient communications with seller's agent and Mortgage lending company in every step showing savvy negotiation skills. Now we live in the house that has the features we wanted in great neighborhood with very nice neighbors. We would highly recommend Gary to who is looking to buy or sell a home. - Sep 15, 2017

Gary has been just awesome. The sale of my house on Paxton Ct. in San Jose is the 3rd time I've worked with him. Each and every time he made the whole process easy and handled all problems that came up. You could not find a better agent, Gary would be my choice again.- Sep 13, 2017

Mr. St. Clair did a phenomenal job. He managed all of the projects that needed to be done on the house and was patient throughout the who process. During the open house, there were roughly 100 families that came in to look at our model type home. Seven offers came in and the sale of the house ended smoothly. I recommend Mr. St. Clair to everyone. You can not go wrong. He shows professionalism and he care about the clients interest. He gentle in his approach and fierce and his sales techniques.-Aug 24, 2017

Gary St. Clair has been my family's real estate agent for over 30 years. He helped my parents buy and sell my childhood home and when they decided to downsize a few years ago. My husband and I used his services recently as we unexpectedly decided to sell our dream home after only living there for one year and putting about $70K in renovations. Not only did we make a decent profit from this sale, we could completely rely on Gary as he is incredibly knowledgeable and has a team that can transform your home to make it sale ready. Gary is a man of integrity and really makes buying or selling a home a seamless process. He has great interpersonal and communication skills and is very effective at negotiating. I've met a lot of real estate agents over the years and none have come close to the service you receive from Gary St. Clair.

I highly recommend Gary Sinclair. You won't find a nicer or more honest realtor to work with. I Had Gary sell 2 homes last year for me and he did a fabulous job. He was very helpful in getting them ready to sell. This year I moved from my home out of town before I put my home up for sale. Gary took care of everything for me that needed to be done to make it ready for sale. He did an excellent job of coordinating and getting it on the market. He sold my house the first week it listed and he got the price that I wanted. If you want the best realtor and receive the best service you definitely should talk to Gary StClair-May @, 2017

My experience working with Gary was very professional. We work well together with many projects. Everything was a smooth process and had no trouble at all. He was very easy to talk to. I highly recommend him.- May 2, 2017

Gary has shown to be on the job project manager,Broker and an enequvical ability to get the job done in a more than reasonable amount of time. He is cost contious and creative to the scope of the projects needed to be done.Gary is a very friendly man with good morals not just to the job but to the people's he is associates with. Thank You for asking. - Apr. 30, 2017

I've worked with Gary choosing finishes and suggesting updates to freshen up several of his listings. Simply put, if you need a realtor, hire Gary - his integrity says it all.-Apr 28, 2017

Gary exceeds expectations in every aspect. He is very reliable, trustworthy, fast and efficient, knowledgeable, capable of fulfilling his promises, and on top of that he is a very pleasant and approachable person. I'd heard only the best about him, so I entrusted him the sale of our house, giving him full freedom to do what he deemed the best. I've been very happy with this decision ever since. We sold our house very quickly, getting well above what we paid for it and well above the asking price. For all these services he provides, his rate is actually very reasonable. Gary recommended a number of renovations that would increase the value of our house, and fully took care of them. We didn't have to do anything, apart from giving him an approval. We loved how he staged the house, and we will take is as an inspiration for how to decorate our new house. After we got a number of offers (already during the first open house!), he suggested an efficient bidding strategy that worked really well. We closed a few weeks later. If we ever plan to buy another house in the Bay Area, I will for sure ask him to represent us again.-Apr 25, 2017

...Whenever I had to buy a property, Gary was there for me and for my family. And he was there when we had to sell one, especially, on a short notice. In each such instance my family and I had benefited from his guidance, from his honesty, from his insight. And all this happened in the merciless real estate market of the Silicon Valley. To say "Mr St Clair has been profoundly helpful," would be an understatement. But isn't it honest to state something that is nothing but factual should it even sound clichs? How I wish I were a skilled writer to say the same thing about an individuala true professional, a selfless friend, and a great family manI have been lucky enough to be associated with for the last quarter of a century!...

We had a great home buying experience with Gary. From day one, we noticed and appreciated his honesty, knowledge of the local area (in this case Almaden Valley), and reliability (he never failed to follow through with every discussion or question we had). His extensive experience in the real estate business was invaluable as he helped us through a very smooth escrow process and guided us in getting our new house ready by not only connecting us with general contractors as well as reliable home improvement businesses but also obtaining estimates and scheduling appointments!. We highly recommend Gary if you are looking for a real estate professional that knows his stuff, is honest and provides excellent customer service all throughout the process of buying or selling a home. -May 27, 2016

Working with Gary was an in expected joy . He is Very professional and works well with others.-april 28,2017

I highly recommend Gary St. Claire. As a recent widow, he guided me through the sometimes difficult task of not only selling my home but also getting the house ready for it and then helped finding a new home. Gary is a true professional with both the knowledge and integrity that made it so much easier. -Apr 25, 2017

When we first listed our home it was September, late in the real estate market season, and the stock market had just tanked. Turnout was minimal and interest Thousand Oaks had flattened. But Gary was intrepid and held five open houses for us. So we decided to take the house off the market until it picked up again in late winter. We moved away in November, leaving the house empty. During that period, Gary said this to us: "If you give me $10,000 to work with, I guarantee you that you will get 20 to 30,000 dollars more in selling price. Working with us by phone, Gary had the floors replaced, the walls painted, and our tile counters replaced with quartz. In addition, he recommended that we have the house staged. He knew what he was talking about. In March he held two open houses on one weekend. Two days later we received six bids, all above asking price. We sold the house for $65,000 above the listing price. And since the buyer was also Gary's client, we paid a discounted commission. This saved us $27,000 compared to a full 6 percent commission broker. Gary is a soft-sell, ethical, and easy to deal with person. If we were looking to sell another home in San Jose, we would not even consider another real estate broker/agent. -Apr 18, 2016

Gary is the BEST agent you can ever find. He helped me buy a condo in Mountain View in 2014. He is very responsible, responsive, patient, and professional. He has the right strategy to negotiate to help you get the best deal. And it took me only 20 days to close the property. I would highly recommend him!!! Nov 21, 2014

"Gary did a fantastic job with the sale of our home. His knowledge, experience, vision of the real estate business provided us with a great result with our transaction. His professional acumen and personal touch from the start to finish of our sale provided a great experience and the best result for us. We hope you consider Gary for your real estate needs". -Apr 12, 2014-

Gary is a professional who knows his business and is easy to work with. Gary has high quality industry contacts who provide staging, any needed repair and inspections. Gary exceeded my expectations. -Aug 11, 2013

We met Gary at an open house in Willow Glen 4 years ago. Our daughter purchased the house. Then he helped us sell the townhouse she had been living in in Almaden. After that we decided to move. He helped us sell our home in Almaden and find a nice one to purchase at the Villages in San Jose. He is a very honest wonderful person. -Apr 24, 2013

Please accept this letter as a recommendation for Gary St Clair, our Realtor. My Husband and I needed to relocate out of state after he accepted a job position, and we needed to sell our house in San Jose quickly. Since we had never sold a home before, we appreciated that from our first consultation through the final sale of the house, Mr St Clair was very professional and patient in explaining all of the real estate legalities required in selling our house in California. After his extensive market research and costing was done on the house, it was put on the market within a couple of weeks. After one open house, we garnered numerous above listing offers. Since we had already relocated to Texas, Mr St Clair took time to walk us through our escrow responsibilities by contacting us routinely by telephone and completion of the sale transpired within less than a month. With his constant attention to detail and expertise, I would highly recommend Mr St Clair highly to any of my friends and neighbors who have any of their real estate needs. -Apr 3, 2014
