FAQ
What data points should I analyze before making an offer in a competitive Bay Area market?
Beyond pre-approval, the focus is building a decision framework: days-on-market trends, list-to-sale ratios, and total cost of ownership—not just the mortgage, but taxes, Mello-Roos, insurance, and maintenance projections. The goal is being strategically positioned, not just financially qualified.
How do you determine optimal pricing when comparable sales tell conflicting stories?
Through multi-layered analysis: recent closed sales, pending transactions, expired listings, and absorption rates by price band. Micro-market dynamics—school boundaries, walkability, buyer demographics—matter as much as comps. Multiple scenarios are modeled to find the price that maximizes interest while protecting negotiating leverage.
What's your approach to minimizing execution risk when buying and selling simultaneously?
Concurrent transactions require mapping critical path dependencies—inspection periods, loan timelines, closing coordination—then stress-testing against realistic scenarios. Through Compass Bridge Loans and strategic contingency structuring, clients maintain leverage in both transactions without gap financing anxiety.
