This home and neighborhood brought new friends, good times, and a strong sense of community.

Let's get started in creating your own success story, either as a buyer or a seller.

Congrats!  I like that you include the timeline.  The fact that the appraiser was there in 3 days is pretty good.  Clearly that bank "gets it".

Hi Brian - Thanks for your nice comments. Sunnyvale remains in high demand, and now that Apple's new corporate headquarters are going in within walking distance of this house it makes it all the more desireable.

Interesting how many people you get through on an open house ..... we get more through on a brokers tour than we do on a public one.
