Success Stories
Some of the success stories from our clients who have used us for selling (short sale) their house:
Cynthia R, Milpitas, CA
I was referred to Blaison by one of my friend for selling my house. I checked out his website first before I called him and I really liked it because it was informative and gave me the right direction.
In my case, I had to short sale my home and I am so glad I chose Blaison. Even though, we lost the first buyer who submitted an offer, he found another buyer within couple of days again and sold it successfully and he got our short sale approved by both lenders very quickly.
He had handled all the negotiation with lenders and kept me updated with any status periodically on what’s going on with our transaction. In my opinion he is one of the best real estate agents out there in this area. He is professional, helpful, and efficient. I strongly recommend Blaison to anyone looking for an agent to do short sale and sell their house.
Adia N, Milpitas, CA
My husband and I decided to short sale our house and at first I was pretty intimidated and a bit scared at the thought of the whole process. I had heard that short sales were a nightmare and could take months and months.
Blaison definitely put my worries at ease. He made the whole process painless and it went very quickly. He was always available to answer questions and was an excellent negotiator with the lenders.
When others ask me about my experience I always stress the importance of having an agent that knows what they are doing with short sales. I had complete confidence in Blaison and do not think the sale would have gone as smoothly as it did without his knowledge and expertise. I highly recommend him to anyone thinking of selling their home.
Carolina A, San Jose, CA
We had checked with couple of our local agent for short sale on my house but they didn’t want to handle short sale. I found Blaison on internet when I was searching for a short sale specialist in our area. I called him and checked why other agents weren’t interested in short sale and he explained one of the reason might be because my lender was Countrywide and this lender takes 6-8 months to get the approval and hard to deal with this lender.
He listed the house and got the approval within 3 months. He kept me informed every week about the status of our short sale. But, at the last moment, the buyer backed out of this transaction but Blaison found another buyer within that week and sold the house. He is really a good negotiator with lenders!!
Rhaniel & Angela, Union City, CA
I thought that selling our home as a short sale would be an impossible task due to current market conditions but Blaison proved me wrong.
He was able to complete the sale much sooner than we expected and he was on top of it throughout the entire process. He answered all my questions and never made me feel obligated.
His attention to detail and sense of urgency together with his knowledge of the short sale process made our short sale a success. Thank you Blaison!
Mike C, Fremont, CA
I didn’t know where to go and who to ask for help with my financial situation and was getting so much behind on my mortgage payment due to my loss of job. I was so depressed with this entire situation and then I found Blaison and he explained about short sale option and how to sell my house even when my house value was lower than the mortgage.
He handled my short sale process very smoothly, answered all my questions to the full satisfaction and top of that he had always updated every week with the status of my short sale. I was worried about giving cash contribution to my 2nd lender but he negotiated so hard that finally the negotiator approved our short sale approval with zero contribution from my pocket.
He is very knowledgeable and knows what he is doing. I would highly recommend to every one who is looking for a short sale agent, he is the best in bay area.
Nancy R, Redwood City, CA
I looked into several other short sale specialists before deciding on Blaison. The minute I talked with him on the phone, I could tell he was clear and direct, and a good listener. When we met, he was remarkably organized, answered all questions, gave precise details on what I needed to do, and what was going to happen, and how long it would take. Throughout the entire process he continued to be clear and organized, timely and efficient. That, plus his calm and pleasant personality, made this business far easier than I had imagined it would be. I highly recommend Blaison if you want your short sale organized and timely!
Faiyaz & Meena, Santa Clara, CA
We have been trying to sell our townhome in Santa Clara since July 2007 and the market ha not not co-operative. We got some bad advice from our pervious realtor and listed the property at a value much higher than what it was worth, wasted a lot of time and money and finally ended up renting the house. Finally in January,2010, we had had enough as the townhouse was a huge drain on our finances and we decided to do a short sale. We came across Blaison by accident while searching the web for Bay area short sale experts. We met with him shortly afterwards and were pleasantly surprised with his professionalism and more importantly his knowledge and expertise in dealing with short sales.
Blaison had given us rough timelines on when things would get done, but based on our past experience with other realtors we were not very hopeful. We were in for a real surprise. He had told us he would list the house mid Jan and we would have offers by end of Jan and that is EXACTLY how things turned out. He also said we would close the sale by end of May and our sale closed escrow on June 7th. We accepted an offer end of Jan and then he put together the complete Short sale package, and tirelessly followed up with the bank and kept us updated weekly on the status. He also kept the buyers informed on the status regularly.
Our second mortgage (Citibank) gave us a really hard time before we got the approvals, but Blaison worked patiently with them and ensured that we got the approval on time. The other thing which was great was he also negotiated his best with the bank to ensure that the money we spent for pay-off was as low as possible. I am pretty sure we personally would not have been able to negotiate that low an amount with the bank. The sale was finally closed on June 7th. We think it was a stroke of luck that we found Blaison. He is really dedicated to his job, very organized and puts in his very best efforts for his clients.
But most important of all, he delivers results on time. I think he is the best realtor around and would strongly recommend him to anyone who is looking to buy/sell their homes be it a regular sale or short sale.
Deepa G, Fremont, CA
When we bought our first home, we both were working at that time, but time had changed and both our income got reduced due to the economy and bad job market and we couldn’t afford to mortgage payment. We tried very hard to pay the monthly mortgage but couldn’t continue paying the mortgage.
We tried to work out with the lender for loan modification but after many months of sending the required paperwork to them, they sent us the NOD (Notice of Default) and they didn’t work out with us. After couple of months, we had received notice of trustee sale and didn’t know what to do next or how to avoid foreclosure. I talked to couple of agents but they weren’t confident enough to help me because of our trustee sale notice on my house. Finally, we talked to Blaison and he said that he can help us without any hesitation.
Within couple of days (2 weeks before trustee sale), he had marketed our house and found a buyer and postponed the trustee sale. The sale went so smooth and he took care of everything and got the approval within a month and sold our house. He also negotiated with the lender for full release of any payment to them. We are no so happy to move on with our life and living without any tension of harassing calls from the lender. We would highly recommend Blaison and his team for selling any home.
Ken K, Oakland, CA
I had listed with another top agent to sell my house but that agent didn’t do a good job in negotiating with lender. I was the one who called the bank to find out the status and negotiating but we couldn’t agree at the end and the transaction fell through and buyer walked out.
I called Blaison and checked whether he is a good agent and knows about short sale and whether he can negotiate with the lender. I found him very knowledgeable and aggressive with lender at negotiating. I made the right choice in picking him as my agent, he sold my house within 2 months and this time I didn’t call the lender like with other agent and Blaison handled this transaction very smoothly.
If you are looking for an experienced and aggressive short sale agent then I would highly recommend him. Thanks Blaison for everything.
Allen & Liz, Stockton, CA
We bought this house as an investment property and after couple of years; my husband’s income had reduced and we couldn’t afford both the mortgage payments. Couple of our friends suggested that to let it go to foreclosure because lender will not accept short sale and it would be hard to sell our property.
After we thought about from all the sides, we know short sale is better than foreclosure, whether it is our credit wise or future loan wise, so we called him to help us to do short sale. He did a great job in selling my house in less than 3 months. I would definitely recommend to all my friends and whoever is looking to short sale their house.
Suzan A, Brentwood, CA
We bought our house in 2005 when the real estate market was good and my husband’s construction business was doing well. But the construction job got hit hard due to down real estate market and he lost more than half of his business income. We tried to rent it out but that couldn’t cover our mortgage and the value of house had gone upside down so we couldn’t get refinance also. This created lot of tension and we tried real hard to pay our monthly mortgage but finally all our savings were gone. Then we thought, it is not healthy to live like this with this tension, our family comes first and we decided to sell this house.
My co-worker referred him and mentioned that he is an experienced short sale agent. I called him and he came to my house and explained all the details about short sale and answered all my questions. Houses weren’t selling that fast in my neighborhood because of lots of other bank owned homes and short sales were selling at below market price at that time. We couldn’t believe that he marketed and found a buyer within 2 weeks and received the short sale approval from both lenders in a couple of months. He took care of everything and didn’t cost me anything. We are really happy with his service.
