When my husband and I decided that the time was right to jump onto the property ladder and purchase our first home here in the Bay Area, we needed expert guidance!! We found this in Athena Chilicas Saldanha. As with most first time buyers we were extremely apprehensive about taking that huge first step forward.. The fact that we are from England, and know next to nothing about the Real Estate purchasing process here in the states, did not exactly help our conifdence any :-) Athena was amazing!! She was respectful and understanding of our concerns. Ever patient and always listening, doing whatever it took to provide the information we needed to help us in our decision making process. She is a true professional who works hard for her clients, and someone you want on your side. She also happens to be a genuinely sweet and kind individual, and I recommend her without reservation to anyone looking to buy or sell their home. ... more
As a first time home buyer, I could not be more satisfied with my experience. Athena's proffesionalism, and attention to detail was absolutely amazing, and much appreciated! "I will HIGHLY recommend Athena to anyone interested in buying/selling here in the Penninsula"! - Ron in RedWood City -
Lore Kreeger and First Time Seller Experience Another satisfied customer thanks to Athena Chilicas Saldanha!! Last fall, Athena provided complete, accurate, and professional service with a smile, before, during, and long after the sale of my San Bruno Condominium. Having never sold property before, I was overwhelmed by all the complexities I faced as the Seller. Athenas patience, reassurance, and thoroughness in explaining all aspects of each transaction kept my confidence high and my anxiety low. Shes a hard worker and a go-getter and Im grateful for the positive experience I enjoyed with Athena! Most importantly, she continued to provide service throughout the past year, suggesting professional financial planning from the proceeds of the condo sale as well as her availabilty to provide her expertise with future real estate interests. She did not 'disappear' once the final papers were signed last year and I'm grateful for her always being at the ready if and when I need her professional services again....Thanks... more
