A diligent negotiator.

"It was a delight working with Silva and the entire RE/MAX Elite team. From the start, Silva took the time to get to know us and what we were looking for in a home. Mind you, we were figuring out what we were looking for at the same time. Our challenges were: relocating due to a job change, selling our house in the Bay Area (similar housing market as here), unfamiliar with the area purchasing in a low inventory re-sale housing market. All the while, we lived at the Residence Inn with our dog. But, Silva rose to the challenge and more. Before moving, we visited with Silva and saw a few homes over a week. This visit was primarily a get to know you visit. By the end of the week, we knew we had found our realtor. Silva knew the area and how to work with clients relocating. After our initial visit, she sent us information about homes via text and/or email. She always stayed in touch. She worked very hard on all offers. On one accepted offer, she recommended we get a contractor to inspect the home in addition to the home inspector due to a few red flags. The contractor explained to us that the building addition was done improperly and need to be re done. Needless to say, we did not continue with the purchase of this home. The very next home we previewed was the house we ultimately bought. Again while the home inspectors made his notes, Silva made her home inspection notes to making sure we were making a sound and well informed decision. She was a diligent negotiator and got us our home. We are enjoying our new home very much, especially the view looking out over Glendale and into downtown Los Angeles. We even got a bonus this 4th of July. We realized we had a view of several firework shows, from Pasadena to downtown L.A. Thank you Silva for making our home search less stressful and for the friendship you extended us."
