Houda Tanverakul

Since having Houda help me purchase my first home in 2011, I've recently leveraged her expertise yet again to help me sell the first home and buy a larger house for my growing family. To prepare my home for sale, Houda spent a countless number of hours getting things ready. She worked closely with the contractor to design, repaint, fix, and beautify the house; when the time came, she even personally helped the stager stage the house. Her fantastic taste in design and keen eye helped make my home for the last 6 years look AMAZING! Had I known how good the home could've looked, I may not have even decided to sell the place to begin with. :-) Once we listed the home, Houda worked tirelessly building a website for the house, hosting open houses, followed up with potential buyers and other agents, and ultimately helped us receive multiple offers, all above listing price. She was with us every step of the way, patiently answered questions, provided regular updates, helped calm us during what could've been a very stressful experience and gave expert advise. Through her negotiation prowess, Houda helped us get the maximum offer with no contingencies.Houda also helped us buy our new home in the neighborhood we wanted. Over the course of several months, Houda sent over MLS listings for various home in our target neighborhood, but we were outbid time after time. Through her network, we were introduced to the perfect house in the perfect neighborhood. With some fast action, and a couple rounds of negotiations, Houda helped us purchase our dream home at a price that we felt was quite fair.We could not have sold and purchased our homes without Houda. I strongly recommend her to anybody who is looking to buy or sell their home in the Sunset / Parkside neighborhoods. Her local expertise, style, work ethic, responsiveness, and ability to add value on the buying / selling side make her a realtor that everybody absolutely must work it.

Houda just helped us sold our house in Lakeshore, San Francisco in March 2016. We picked her after interviewing a number of agents. Her service was over the top. She is a design guru, and helped us with interior design, picking contractors, even the colors of our paint. We spent our money efficiently and effectively. She suggested listing the home with a good price that would invite visits and offers. The results were outstanding with 5000 online views, 500 open house visitors, and 10 offers. And we ended up selecting the second highest offer due to more favorable terms per her advice.
