Rindie-GT Thames

"Gavin recently helped us sell two homes, one being an estate sale. Each sold over asking and within just a few days with multiple qualified offers. Gavins knowledge helped us price the homes appropriately. He worked with other realtors in the area who had recently sold homes to understand the current demand in the area. His attention to detail during the entire process made the transactions go very smoothly. He went over and above to help us prepare the home for sale, including working with the staging company and helping us determine what should be done with each home before putting them up for sale. We would highly recommend Gavin to anyone selling a home"

"Gavin and Rindie were a pleasure to work with. They are both extremely professional, courteous and knowledgeable. Not only did they sell our home very rapidly, but they got a much better price than we thought possible. Gavin has lots of contacts in the community, both locally and in the Bay Area, which gave us much better opportunities. They will definitely take care of any future home sales for us. Thanks, Thames!"

Gavin Thames, represented my wife's parents in the sale of over $10 million of residential and commercial real estate in Santa Clara County, California. All this real estate closed within a 90 day time fame. Since I manage my elderly in law's affairs, I worked closely with Gavin through all of these transactions. Unlike many of the real estate professionals that we interviewed to represent us in the marketing of the $3 million personal residence, Gavin had an excellent working knowledge of the high end residential market. He was able to recommend a sales price that met the delicate balance of maximum price versus timely sale. Gavin's team was effective in staging our property for the all important first impression. Additionally, he was skilled at identifying qualified buyers and then convincing them to view the property. We received offer's from qualified purchasers of our two multi-family complexes within days. Each buyer had a substantial down payment to qualify for a loan and we were able to close these escrows without delay. I was impressed with Gavin's concern with some potential legal exposure that my wife's parents had. He met with qualified legal counsel to make sure that they had protection beyond the "standard form" legal protection. As we moved through the commercial escrow process, Gavin's skill showed through as he was successful in communicating complex real estate language in such a way that my in laws could make clear decisions. I trust Gavin implicitly and would recommend him for any high end residential/ commercial real estate representation.

This is written to serve as a letter of recommendation for Gavin Thames. Over the past few years Gavin has been extremely helpful in assisting our church with purchasing a building to which we have recently relocated, Gavin was involved in many facets of acquiring the building, from negotiations to the nuts and bolts of the real estate transaction. It is easy for me to say that without Gavin's professionalism and expertise we could not have completed this transaction and we are deeply indebted to him for his commitment in helping us secure this facility. In addition to what I have already said, Gavin demonstrated not only business savvy, but also a high level of integrity rarely seen in the business world. And so it is with great confidence that I am able to recommend him to you - not only as a professional but as a man of character and integrity. If you should have any questions regarding Gavin's participation in the aforementioned transaction I would be more than happy to attempt to answer them.

To Whom It May Concern: Gavin is his team are the perfect blend of "get the job done". Ours was a unique and rather complicated situation. It did not deter them in any way. They looked forward to the challenge, and took the ball and ran with it, protecting and coaching us all the way to the end zone. The have experience combined with a true sense of honesty, compassion, and dedication made us feel safe and assured that they understood our wants and needs, and had no problem with getting their hands dirty to help us attain our goals. They sold two of our residences and found us our dream home. All of these transactions were painless from the selling to the buying. Gavin is a very skillful negotiator with a calm and collected nature, always thinking ahead, therefore developing a seamless transaction. There were never any surprises and we were always well informed. Our family would recommend the Thames Team again and again.

I worked with Gavin to sell my home in Cotati, CA and had a wonderful experience. Selling a home can be an overwhelming process, but I felt at ease with his expertise and dedication to getting my home sold quickly. He created professional flyers and promoted my property with other local agents to help drive activity, which happened within a day of creating the listing. He recommended pricing the home in a way that would create a bidding situation and in the end I received multiple offers. Gavin really helped me decide which offer to accept and advised me on which would have the best chance of closing in the timeline I needed it to and without complications. My home sold way over asking price and I was able to buy a brand new home in an area closer to my family. Overall, I was very happy with my experience and highly recommend Gavin as an agent.

We met Gavin at a Open House at the Ranch in San Jose. We immediately felt very comfortable with his knowledge of the area and his willingness to help us find the exact home to fit our budget. Gavin spent many hours showing us houses across the San Jose area. We finally found a home in Silver Creek which happened to be down the street from where Gavin lived. It was a beautiful home. In fact it was owned by a previous 49er Football Player. Gavin knew our budget and negotiated a great deal on a beautiful home. We would gladly recommend Gavin to anyone looking for a Realator that actually cares about more then then commission.

I was put in a position of having to sell my mother's home as she went into assisted living. She was emotional about leaving a home that she had been in for 20 years and there were issues about preparing the house for sale. Gavin was more than a real estate broker in this matter. He assisted on several side matters and successfully brought the sale and the move to a close.

My wife and I were looking to sell our home due to a employment move. When we met with Gavin and Rindie their honesty and deep care for our best interest was very clear. During the sale process, which went very quick, the Thames team kept in contact, always asked how they could help make the process as smooth as possible. I had to move to our new city before my wife did, but the Thames team ensured that my wife was well taken care of and the move when great. If you select Gavin and Rindie for your real estate transaction you will be getting the very best!!

Amazing! Gavin was instrumental in helping us purchase our home. Without his help and advice it would not have happened. His negotiation skills were right on and his suggestions were so helpful. We are so happy with Gavin and would refer him to anyone needing real estate advice as well as financing.
