"Service Is Everything..."

• Janet approaches every client's marketing plan, sales strategy, contract negotiations, and support efforts no differently than she approached the numerous multi-national sales contracts -- with speed, focus, precision and perhaps most importantly -- respect and integrity.

• Janet is certified as a Previews Property Specialist for the selling and marketing of luxury homes.

• She is a member of the National Association of Realtors (N.A.R.), California Association of Realtors (C.A.R.), Silicon Valley Association of Realtors (SILVAR) and MLSlistings multiple listing service.

Community Service

Client Testimonial

• “I was selling my house because I was relocating to a new job.   My biggest worry was that I would not have enough time to get my house ready to sell.   Janet and Dustin did a great job finding contractors and making all of the arrangements for me. They also did a great job managing the contractors and making sure I got the most for my money.   I would recommend Janet and Dustin because they provided very good service that made it easy for me to sell my house.”
