The Company Real Estate’s Simple 6-Step Method to Buying Your Dream Home in the Bay Area

Default Image

Step 1: Get Pre-Qualified or Pre-Approved

Start by understanding your financial position. If you’re paying cash, ensure your funds are liquid. Discuss your situation with your accountant for tax advice. Knowing how much you can afford is crucial as it sets a guideline for your exciting search. There’s nothing more disappointing than falling in love with a home that’s out of your price range or discovering you can’t secure funds quickly enough to be competitive.

Step 2: Clarify Your Needs

Reflect on a few fundamental questions, and consider writing down your responses:

  • Why am I moving?
  • When do I need to move by?
  • What is my budget?
  • What are my top Bay Area neighborhoods?
  • What are my absolute “must-haves”?
  • How long do I plan to live in this home?

By answering these questions, you’ll gain clarity on what you truly need in your new home.

"Patrick went above and beyond to sell our home, not only for the best price, but also in the most convenient way for our family. He individualizes the sale of each home to every seller, and we could not recommend him more highly!"

"It was a joy to work with Patrick. He was knowledgeable. He gave us advice on things to do to improve the home for sale without overspending on things that weren’t really necessary. The photos taken for the listing were great, and he even negotiated a higher-than-asking-price for the home. Patrick was a hard worker, and I would highly recommend him if you need help selling or buying a home."

Buyer & Seller
"In all my years of experience working with real estate agents, Patrick, by far, has been the absolute best realtor I have ever met. He is an extremely hard and competent agent who stands out by the level of service he provides and his knowledge of the market. He assisted me in selling 2 properties that were unique and needed some work. While this could have very easily been an overwhelming task for me, he readily took on much of the work of troubleshooting, and finding and bringing in experienced professionals to undertake the work necessary for me to list the properties. His adaptability and acuity working with other agents and people, together with his outgoing, easy, honest, and friendly personality, made what could have been some challenging tasks into simple transactions. His knowledge of real estate and the market is impressive, and working with him was truly a joy. I unequivocally recommend him for any type of real estate transaction."

"As an out-of-town seller who didn't know the neighborhood, Patrick did a great job making sure I got top dollar for my mother's house. He handled the entire process, working with local contractors and inspectors and getting professional advice when needed. He showed it to over 30 potential buyers by appointment (due to COVID). His guidance and suggestions were right on. The entire process from listing to closing was efficient and yielded a result better than expected. I highly recommend Patrick."

He is professional, respectful, caring, honest, and understanding of a seller's needs. He goes the extra mile to help with the odd things that come up. He is easy to work with and has a buyer immediately. He really is like family, and I’m very appreciative of His work ethic. He really does go to bat for you!"

"I have bought and sold probably 12 to 13 homes in my lifetime. I have dealt with probably 12 to 13 real estate agents. If you are looking for someone who is dedicated to selling or listing your property, I would have to say that Patrick is the person who would get the job done. Patrick is very courteous, understanding, and supportive of a person's needs. I would say that he goes way above and beyond normal agents that I have dealt with in the past. He always puts his clients first, no matter what he has going on in his personal life. Again, if you want to sell or list your property, Patrick is the man. On one particular day, I was out of town, and Patrick actually dog-sat my dog so that the house could be shown."

""I'll go to bat for you" is a very accurate expression of how Patrick guided me in my purchase. His care and attention made me feel at ease in my real estate shopping experience. More than just simply listening to me speak, he made the effort to fully understand my intent in my search for a house. Even when I felt I was unable to fully articulate my feelings, he demonstrated a special talent in being able to analyze and digest my thoughts into a coherent plan to help me find my new home. Thank you, Patrick!"

"I literally recommend Patrick to everyone who even mentions buying a home! He is absolutely amazing to work with! I have business cards in my wallet ready to hand out; true story. I am a first-time home buyer with a million questions; he answered all of them, at all hours! He explained things in terms I could understand, breaking down the lingo for someone who doesn't deal with home buying on the regular. He worked way outside of business hours/days for my family and found us the perfect house! I was planning my wedding at the same time as buying a home, and he made the home-buying process easy as pie. I texted him at 7 am on a Sunday morning to look at a house, and he responded right away. I sent emails at 11 at night, and he would respond. He did everything in his power to help us get into the home we really wanted, even going as far as making minor fixes himself and being there for repair people to come by. Hardworking individual for sure. He is just a really good person in general. I had a flooding issue a couple of months after purchasing the house, and he came over to help fix/clean up the disaster that night, and stayed until it was resolved-hours later! That was completely unnecessary and extremely appreciated. He is a husband and father, and I think that makes him put himself in the buyer's shoes and relate to many people on many levels. I have kids, and it was important to live somewhere safe for them, and he understood that, going out of his way to make sure neighborhoods were safe/low crime where we were looking. I can't say enough good things about this guy. Do yourself a favor and work with Patrick Brooks! You'll never work with another realtor again. I promise."
