We are so happy we chose Mitch to sell our house in Hayward. He held our hand through some complex paperwork and his suggestion to upgrade the property was not only cost effective but resulted in a painless quick sale. We highly recommend him Hillary and Jay

We have had the good fortune to work with Mitch on a number of projects and it has always been a pleasure working with him. Mitch has a lot of experience with the Bay Area housing market. He is very responsive to the needs of his customers and is always happy to answer questions or do more investigating when we have asked questions that he didn't know off the top of his head. He's very honest, hardworking, and understanding of his client's needs as well as their hopes and fears. I don't hesitate to recommend Mitch to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the Bay Area.

Mitch was absolutely fantastic to work with. He was patient, professional, and listened to what we had to say when it came to buying our new house, and when it came to selling our old house, he had really fantastic advice to give us that helped us achieve our goals. I would recommend Mitch to anyone who's either buying or selling.

Mitch went the extra mile to help get my condo ready for sale and got it looking very nice. In a complicated situation with multiple owners he kept everyone informed, handled the paperwork well, and managed changes smoothly.

Questions & Answers

The goal is to make your home as appealing as possible to the most potential buyers, before photos of your home are taken. Staging your home can include anything from redecorating to rearranging furniture, cleaning or other aesthetic strategies to present the home in the best possible light. You can do it yourself, have your real estate agent guide you, or hire a staging company.

What does selling a home ‘as-is’ mean?

Profile at Optimize5 | Aug 18, 2022

If someone is selling a home that needs repairs - yet chooses not to fix them - they may choose to list a property as-is. Disclosures and inspections are typical steps in the process. In an as-is sale, a buyer is willingly purchasing the home in its current state with full knowledge of its condition.

What is disclosure?

When selling a property, it is incumbent upon the seller to disclose any details about the home that might negatively affect its value.

How long will it take to sell my home?

Factors such as the time of year and market conditions play a big role in how quickly a property sells. How you price, market and stage your home are also very important variables that will affect how long a home remains on the market.

What needs to stay when I sell my home?

Profile at Optimize5 | Aug 18, 2022

Any fixture that is ‘attached’ or built into the house typically remains. For example, if your house has built-in bookshelves, they typically stay with the house. The same is true of kitchen or bathroom fixtures, and fireplaces. Exceptions and details can be discussed during the negotiation process.

Can I sell my home and buy another at the same time?

There are many factors that affect the housing market, but understanding what to expect - and being prepared beforehand - can make buying and selling a property at the same time possible.

What is an appraisal for when I buy a house?

Profile at Optimize5 | Aug 18, 2022
Profile at Optimize5 | Aug 18, 2022

A professional appraiser will inspect a property and compare it to other similar homes in the area. From there, a fair market value is determined. Unless you plan on paying all cash for a property, you will likely need a home appraisal.

How do real estate agents get paid?

Profile at Optimize5 | Aug 18, 2022

Your first step is to hire a real estate agent you trust. Together, you will set an asking price, prepare your home for listing, list and market your property, negotiate an offer, and close on the sale.
