Whether you are buying, selling or refinancing, you want to know what your home will appraise for by the lender. This is important because if a home is sold for more than it'll appraise for, the buyer will have to make up the difference or the seller will have to lower the price to close the deal. The buyer's lender will hire a licensed appraiser to determine your homes value.

This is our second time working with Sunil. He helped us buy this home and more recently sell it. He took full ownership and ran the show from listing, working with contractors, inspectors and staging. That is such a peace of mind. He kept us updated on the showings, insights of the market and served our best interests. He is easy to get ahold of and work with. It was a pleasure working with him and look forward to working with him in the future.

I chose Sunil based on some references and feedback from various websites and talking to him personally. I was a bit apprehensive since I hadn't been keeping with real estate news after first buying my home in 2003. Boy was I glad I hired him. I was under a time constraint since I was leaving the Bay Area. Sunil sprung into action, advised me on fixes I could make that would make my home more attractive to buyers, got me competitive quotes and lined up all appointments, got the fixes done in a record short time of 2.5 weeks. He and his wife ensured they were on top of everything throughout the

When I decided to sell my house since I was leaving Bay Area after 20 years, it was a very emotional decision for me. To counter those emotions which aren't conducive for maximizing profits, it was really great to have someone like Sunil who took emotion out of the equation and focused on the logistics and price points to ensure everything went smoothly. I spoke to a few realtors and chose Sunil and his team after reading the reviews on Nextdoor and after talking to him in person and verifying the references he gave me. The thing that stood about Sunil was how he approached the whole process

We worked with Sunil to sell our house in Fremont in April 2021. Sunil was very knowledgeable on all aspects and cautions required to list the house under COVID restrictions. He worked with us to ensure that we optimally priced and staged our house. He also helped us get inspections and disclosures completed ahead of the listing going live in record time. With Sunil's guidance we were able to get our house under contract in one weekend with 20+ offers, with a final selling price close to 25% over the listing price. Sunil continued to work with us to ensure that all aspects of the closing went smoothly

Called this business to inquire about their property management services, the person who picked up said they use another company for property management and that he will get back to me with their contact info. No call back. I sent a text and still no follow-up. A little courtesy goes a long way. Still giving them 2 stars for taking my 1st call.

Sunil is a seasoned realtor who really understands the real-estate market in the bay-area. He represented us in selling our rental property. He managed the entire show from end-to-end. Right after my initial phone conversation with Sunil, he came up with a very professional plan to bring our house on the market ASAP.
Sunil brings a wealth of knowledge and experience that goes beyond selling a house. In addition to listing the house and successfully closing the deal, Sunil saved us several weeks of time by taking care of everything from planning the renovations, bringing the contractors, to supervising

Highly recommended !!
We recently purchased a property in Fremont with Sunil Sethi & Kevin . Home buying is an emotional process as is and having your agent as the rational voice during the entire process is pivotal and Sunil & Kevin were exactly that during the entire process. They are very well informed and lays out the pros and cons of every listing we viewed with them clearly. They are well connected with other realtors/listing agents which comes in handy during the offer submission process.
If we were to do this whole process again we would definitely go with Sunil and his team.

Sunil and Kevin are truly the best realtors in all of the bay area. When I first met Sunil and Kevin, they went over our finances and explained how we would evaluate the numbers on each property we considered. They taught us how to quickly read through disclosures. It's a very strong market, and the only offers being accepted are ones with zero contingencies. We had to learn how to make decisions very quickly. They answered all our questions and continue to answer them now that we are closed.

Sunil and his team were just amazing - from our first conversation on the phone (because of COVID) all the way to the closing of the home.
They understood our needs quickly (size, budget, school, commute, etc) and helped us find the right home. Even during the month-long closing, he was on top of things and made sure that there are no delays from any of the parties involved.
Had it not been Sunil, we would have actually landed up spending more - from offer to even buying probably a costlier home.
I highly recommend Sunil and his team.

We had an introductory call with Mr. Sethi and Kevin. There was a lot of talking about how his kids went to private school and that was the only way to get into good universities. I have a preschooler starting kindergarten next year and there was no conversation about that. They did not want to know what we like and what our choice is. They came across as rude. It was like an interrogation going on . I was so frustrated after this experience that I did not speak to another realtor for a week. This was despite the fact that our budget was a pretty decent 1.7 to 2 million. Very disappointed.

Seamless transaction start to finish. Sunil and Kevin made the sale of our house very easy. All inspections and improvement recommendation vendors were handled by them, all work done quickly and the house sold very quickly for over asking. Highly recommend as Sunil is very knowledgable about the area and the market.

I have been a Real Estate Broker for almost 30 years. I retired a few years ago. When it comes to select an agent to represent me in selling my own investment property, I certainly have some expectations. We have spoken to a few Realtors prior, but Sunil stood out from the crowd. He is a do-er, not just a talker. I considered myself an expertise in home renovations, but he still found items that I had missed. Our property was sold after the first weekend open house. Sunil is tech-savvy, organized, personable, knowledgeable. He is a true professional.

It was great to work with Austin. If you're looking for a top notch Real Estate agent who is honest and will work hard for you, I highly recommend him. He is extremely responsive even after closing on the house. He answered all of our questions and helped us thru many problems/concerns. He is very professional, patient and would answer any question at almost any time of the day. He made the whole process for buying our house out of state a lot easier than expected. We highly recommend Austin and would gladly work with him again in the future.

It was such a pleasure working with both Sunil and Austin. They helped us with the process from explaining how it works, helping to stage the house and pricing it right. They organized everything from inspections to even gardener. My house was sold over the asking price during first open house (never mind market slowed down in August). Highly recommend this team.

In this crazy Bay Area housing market, having a trusted realtor is key to finding your ideal home. Sunil and were amazing. It took us months to find our perfect home and throughout the process the Sethis were super helpful and patient. Sunil's understanding of the neighborhoods in Fremont is very impressive. He is very direct in telling you the implications and trade offs of any property you are considering so you are a more informed home buyer. I am happy with our experience working with Sunil & his team. Thanks!

I initially met Sunil at an open house in the neighborhood. He impressed me with his candor, friendliness, and helpfulness. We parted ways then (without us buying the property), but when it came time for us to sell our home, he was the first person I reached out to. I was not disappointed.
In establishing the seller/realtor relationship, Sunil… was up front, fair, and walked me through the steps. I didn't feel like I needed to haggle with him and was already confident in the process he had established.

We know you might have heard similar success stories from many people every now and then, here is ours! I hope you (and you must) feel proud of everything you did for us and many others.
My husband and I feel very lucky to run into you guys via the radio show. Honestly we were not even serious about buying a home before we met and even for the… first few months. When I heard Sunil first time on Radio, there were 2 reasons that your name stayed in my mind : 1) Your name : Sunil Sethi - same name as Bollywood actor 'Sunil Shethy' . 2) number of degrees you have earned.

If you are looking for a home in the Fremont-UnionCity-Newark area, there is no one better than Sunil to work with. These are not just our words, but when you will go to open houses and meet other agents they will tell you that too.
