I absolutely love my home and I’m so grateful to my realtor Mika Ratnam. Mika gave me a deep appreciation for how important it is to have a realtor that is patient, skilled, knowledgeable and tenacious. She took the time to carefully listen to me in the beginning when I only had a vague idea about purchasing a home. She worked hard to find properties that were appropriate. Each outing to see potential properties was filled with insight and helpful suggestions. When I set my heart on my home, she was a skillful negotiator. She has an excellent sense for timing and choosing a good offering price. From financing, to closing, she was responsive and ensured I had all the resources I needed to to get to that thrilling moment whe n I received the keys to my very own home.

Mika showed me many houses in the South Bay area a couple of years ago when I was considering selling my house and buying one a few miles away. I was impressed with her knowledge of the types of flooring and quality of finishes used in the homes, and her aesthetic sense for how to decorate my house for sale, as well as her ideas on how to make relatively simple modifications to my bathroom to make it more attractive. She also understands the economics of real estate as demonstrated by the recent market valuation that she provided for my house. I would highly recommend her as a real estate agent.
