Prerana and Hiren Saraiya

Over 95 percent of our business are referrals from our past clients. Lifelong professional relationship and personal friendship is our goal with every new client we meet. We can only achieve that when we treat our clients with respect by listening to their needs and fulfilling them. We devote ourselves for serving our clients before, during and after each transaction.

Most realtors spend 75 percent of their time prospecting for new business. We don't do that. We spend the majority of our time and energy taking care of our clients. We will be with you before, during and most importantly after your transaction. All we ask is that while you are working with us, if you come across anyone comparable to you who is thinking about selling or buying a home, and would like the same attention that we provide you, please let us know. As long as our clients refer us business, we don't have to go out prospecting for new business and we can take care of you even better!
