Review of the Clarke Team: Patient and Determined. They helped us find our perfect home.

Review: This was our first experience with The Clarke Team and it was much better than I ever dreamed possible.

My husband and I had difficult parameters as far as what we wanted in a house and the price we wanted to pay. We were looking for different things in a home. The Clarke Team helped us find the house of our dreams, which encapsulated the qualities and features that we were both looking for in one house.

Not only did Judy Clarke accommodate a bimodal desire in homes, but she was also entirely positive throughout the process. She handled everything with gentleness and sweetness.

Working with The Clarke Team was an amazing experience. They are the best listeners in the world. They get you the house you want and they have fabulous attention to detail. This attention to detail can provide insight about potential home defects they see. My husband and I had not two but three pairs of discerning eyes to spot the flaws as well as the positive features of the homes we looked at.

The Clarke Team never lost patience or determination to assist us in finding our perfect home.

: A Little Knowledge Will Save You A Lot Of Time and Money

Is it a buyer’s or a seller’s market right now? The answer can turn on a dime and not all buyers are up-to-date with the latest information on market conditions. It almost goes without saying that it can also have serious financial impact on your situation.

As Realtors, it’s our job to track all of the elements that go into creating our current market – from interest rates to supply and demand, to which kinds of houses are selling quickly. Market conditions will often vary even from neighborhood to neighborhood, and knowing this information can put you in a much better position to find better deals and more promising investment opportunities.

We would like to offer you our services and help you find the dream home you are looking for.

Making the Most of Change

Buying and selling real estate is much different today than the way it used to be—and it’s not just the prices that have changed! From new ways to finance property to constantly changing laws that govern disclosures and the buying/selling process, innovation and change is the order of the day.

The role of Realtors has also changed. Today, in addition to finding our clients the best properties at the right prices, we also guide them through the entire home buying process as they move through the phases of finding the right home, making the offer, going through the inspections and closing the deal.

What’s still the same? Well, buyers still want to buy and sellers still want to sell. The goals never change—buying a home is still a fun, exciting process that yields deep emotional and economic rewards. Please don’t hesitate to give us a call or send us an e-mail.

Review of the Clarke Team: The best decision I have made.

Review: This was my second time purchasing a home. Kelly and Judy made the transaction easy and smooth from beginning to end. We looked at homes with an open mind for sure and she gave me ideas along the way as to how to upgrade them. My budget was small and that meant not the best neighborhoods. She always researched the areas and made sure I new "There is a hospital and four way stop sign there. There are a lot of cars and apartments on this street" And when we found the gem she made sure It was the right choice. Comments like " There is a school 2 blocks away so we should drive by when it gets out to see how busy it is. There are nice well maintained homes and ample parking all around. It has been the best decision I have made to use the Clarke team in finding my Gem. Thank You.

Review of the Clarke Team: All-around good experience: Quick, effective, and fun to work with.

Review: We decided to use The Clarke Team to sell our house because I knew Kelly from a previous business we had worked in together. I was confident in her personality and sales skills, and knew that she was a results person.

We challenged The Clarke Team a bit because we gave them a month to sell our house. However, they worked quickly and effectively to get things done. Within 4 days, they had an open house, and we received a full-price offer the following day.

They were incredibly organized, had a plan, and their communication was excellent. They managed the selling of our home like a project, setting our expectations in terms of what we needed to do and what we could expect.

The way that they interacted with us was very impressive, as we have had other agents that were not responsive and did not answer our questions. The Clarke Team also was fun to work with. They just get it -- all of the different aspects of the process, from the emotional to the financial/practical, that you are going through.

Review of the Clarke Team: A dedicated, professional team with high integrity.

Review: I had a property in Half Moon Bay, and it was going to a family that had 4 or 5 brothers and sisters that were fighting among themselves. The land that was going was not expensive. I was surprised to see The Clarke Team go through so much trouble even though there was not much money involved.

Everything was done professionally to make sure that I would not have any issues later on because the brothers were disagreeing. I personally felt bad for having them do so much work for not much money.

Judy and Kelly really work as a team. They are involved in many meetings, and if one was not available the other one would always help. They were always in touch and available to help.
