Professional Philosophy:

It is my commitment to focus my efforts on helping people at all levels of business to make the best decisions they can for themselves and their families as it comes to buying and selling real estate. This involves being honest and loyal to those I represent. It means building a business based on trust and integrity and remembering that I am a fiduciary to my client and his interest comes before mine. It means bringing to bear all the business experiences learned in the Corporate World to benefit my client’s interest, whether they are Sellers or Buyers. I always work to balance pricing with marketing in order to gain the greatest exposure of the property I am selling to people around the world in an effort to get top dollar for my Sellers. Likewise, we work diligently to prepare “Buyer Presentation Packages” that are professional and complete so as to ensure the Buyers we represent that they will be viewed in the best possible light by the Seller so they can secure the property they desire to own. We specialize in selling estate properties and can provide many unique and different marketing techniques and approaches other agents are not aware of and do not employ as part of their marketing campaigns.

The greatest compliment that I can ever receive is a referral from my friends and past clients.

Please call me at 408-930-4132 if you would like to receive a no fee, no obligation appraisal or consultation on the value of your property.

Best Regard
Mike Orlando, Broker Associate/MBA
