Burt Tsuei Review

A big "thank you" to the fellow Yelpers who took their time to write such glowing reviews for Burt Tsuei.  We decided to meet with Burt based on your reviews.

And so glad we did!  Upon the first meeting, we knew that he was... the one.

Months later, when we were finally ready to make the move, we hired Burt to assist with the selling of our old house and purchasing of our second home.  As second time home buyers, I can't begin to tell you how grateful we were to have him on our side during the two transactions.

To start, Burt paid us an initial visit and analyzed our house giving us suggestions to improve its appeal.  We took his advice to heart and de-cluttered the heck out of it.  Following the purge, we hired a contractor to paint the interior and exterior, which gave the house a facelift that was much needed.  I then Yelped a decorator who did an excellent job of staging the place.  (I'll review her in a separate entry.)  The day after the house was staged, Burt came out with a photographer to capture the Pygmalionesque transformation on digital film.

Burt did an incredible job of marketing our house.  We had a double-sided COLOR flyer and an online virtual tour.  We were thoroughly impressed with the results.  Consequently, our house received not one, but two offers in less than a week; and sold by the end of the week.

In the world of real estate, there are factors that you can control and those that you can't.  The difference between Burt and other agents is that he didn't make promises that he couldn't keep.  He never told us that our house would sell in a week for x amount.  No one can predict that, especially in this climate - yet I personally know of two agents who have promised our friends just that; and both of their properties are still on the market... two months later, without an offer.

We appreciated Burt's honesty, professionalism, intelligence, and level-headedness.  As other reviewers have mentioned, he never pushed us into making a decision.  He offered advice only when we asked and did not sway us into making a decision that we weren't completely happy with.  He patiently dealt with my husband and me - often times separately because my husband was out of town a lot.  And he never missed a beat, even while he was on vacation in Yellowstone.

I could go on and on.  But bottom line:  "Burt is awesome!" was a mantra that we kept repeating to each other the entire time.
