TESTIMONIALS


"Sandy has assisted our family in selling two homes within the last three months. I am grateful to have been referred to an agent who is not only an excellent real estate agent but has extensive knowledge in the probate process. Sandy provides a beautiful blend of old fashioned customer service and modern services. She delivered the same stellar personal service from beginning to end of both transactions. She communicated with me every step of the way in person, on the phone, via email and text. She always responded quickly and with careful attention to detail. Working with Sandy made me feel like I was getting the level of dedication she would give to family. I am 100% satisfied and happy to refer her to anyone who has real estate needs."

I really appreciate and enjoyed working with Sandy on the sale of my home. Sandy and her team put a lot of time and effort into the marketing and selling. My home was one of the few in the tract where I live that has sold and it was because of the complete market analysis and advice that she gave in staging and on the market price.  I could not have picked a better agent to sell my house and the very reasonable price they offer comes with full and complete service.  I would recommend the team of Sandy and Jane to anyone who wants honesty and needs results.  I feel very fortunate to have sold my house and it would not have happened, in my opinion, without this team.  Sandy was always reachable by phone and she always cared.   Sam R.

Thank you very much for your handling the sale of the house at 2279 Westgate Ave. in San Jose.  My husband and I have sold more houses than most and I don't think I've had any sale go more smoothly.  Sandy, you were most professional when others were not behaving very professional at all.  We do appreciate your expertise.  Shirley L.

This letter is to express my deep appreciation for the outstanding job you did to sell my home in San Jose.  From the very first meeting thru the final close of escrow you exhibited the highest level of commitment to meeting my needs.  Your referring me to a very professional staging person; your critiquing each of my actions; your keeping all of your commitments; your advocating for me with other Realtors; and finally your graciousness in dealing with me, set you head and shoulders above your competition.  If you ever need a referral to a client feel free to let me know.  Randolph.

To those seeking a professional home sale:  Our hats off to Sandy Sparkman and Jane Larkin of Fireside Realty for the wonderful job in preparing our home for the quick sale that we experienced. This was done without sacrificing our financial goals. Success was accomplished by professional staging, expert photography, engaging MLS agents on a daily basis and with daily Realtor follow ups.  We were kept current as to status via the internet, telephone and fax communication mediums. Also be aware that our home sold to a prequalified buyer within 10 days after listing.  These actions occurred during the year end holiday season when home volume was high and a buyers market was active.  All contractual matters, home inspections, and agent interfacing was professionally handled and dispersed without problems.  Thanks again for the opportunity to work with you on our home sale and I sincerely hope that others will take advantage of all the benefits that your association has to offer.  Ed & Donna J.
