What do Clients Say?

I am- writing to recommend Joe Kehrig and the Bayhill Team.Recently, I was relocating from CA to CO through a corporate RELO. Seeing how I was starting a new job, I knew I was not going to have much time or attention to devote to the move. And, with 4 kids to transition, my wife was not either. We were very stressed about the whole situation.In choosing a realtor, we interviewed several. We were looking for someone who was willing and able to do everything needed to get our house on the market, and to get the absolute best price. Several that we interviewed said that they could do this, but Joe did the best job in walking us through his process in depth and assuring us that he would make the process easy and stress free for us. In addition, he demonstrated to us that he really knows the local market – critical if you are going to maximize the sale price of a house.Choosing Joe and his sons was an excellent decision. Not only did we sell our house quickly and at top $, but the process was turnkey. They coordinated everything – a stager, repairs, painting, landscaping, pricing and listing the house. They even fixed things like broken sprinkler heads and a yard lighting system. It was amazing – and a huge relief because we were so busy with the move and ramping up on new jobs that we didn’t have time to deal with it. The house looked better than every – much more curb appeal than we could have coordinated on our own. We were shocked at how good it looked!Not surprisingly, the house showed wonderfully. Joe skillfully conducted an open house and was able to quickly leverage our offers into a contract of sale. Through the inspections and other contingencies, Joe skillfully negotiated. I always felt Joe was on our side; our biggest advocate.I should mention that we were also working through a relo company (Sirva). This can add another layer of complication to the process. Joe has worked with these companies many times in the past and knows exactly what to do. We had no issues – Joe coordinated well with the relo company.Also worth mentioning is that the Bayhill team works seamlessly. In our sale, Joe was on point with us and in negotiation, and oversaw all of the work. However, having a team allows them tremendous bandwidth to get things done quickly and thoroughly. Joe would often send one of his sons by to coordinate a contractor, or facilitate something that needed to be done to the property. I imagine they were responsible for a lot of the fast turnaround on listings, paperwork and marketing materials as well. His sons are smart, hardworking, and professional. They are really nice guys as well.I highly recommend Joe and the Bayhill Team. Not just because this one sale went well, but because of how he conducts business. Joe and his sons are always available and highly responsive. They really know the housing in Danville and the San Ramon valley – they know the models, what buyers are looking for, pricing, etc. They work hard, and are a pleasure to work with because of their reassuring and pleasant demeanor. And, they have an extensive network of contacts that allow them to show your houses best potential (landscapers, handymen, stagers, etc.) with little or no cost. I would go with Joe again in the future in a heartbeat.Mike and Julie McGarry

To Whom it May Concern:Joe Kehrig served as our real estate agent in 2011, and successfully sold our California home located at 2541 Montreux Street in Danville. Joe was selected as our agent based upon a strong recommendation from our relocation company. He was recommended as someone who was a specialist in marketing, knew the neighborhood well, and thoroughly understood my company’s relocation plan.Joe helped us set a fair price, helped to coordinate the necessary repairs, and the house sold within a reasonable timeframe. Due to the financial incentives offered by my company, it was important to sell to a third party as opposed to the relocation company. The rules of the plan were complex, and Joe made sure we qualified for every available plan feature.We can recommend him without qualification.Paul and Linda Siegele

To whom it may concern: Joe Kehrig and his Bayhill Team receive my utmost commendation for relocation home sale that is inclusive of and beyond a typical home sale.Please see the following reasons for the commendation and feel free to e-mail me for any further clarification and/or questions: 1) Integrity: Congruence in his character from the initial live meeting/interview to the end of the process. From the beginning, Joe connected with my wife and me as well as each of our children in a personable way. His sincere approach prioritized people over sale consistently in every encounter. In every communication, he was unhurried to listen to our concerns and answered our questions. Foremost, when there was a misstep, he did not excuse or over-rationalize, but took personal ownership and took steps to resolve.2) Intent: Transparency in his thoughts, concerns, approach and advice. Joe's intent was clear from the beginning without overpromising or unclear. Throughout the entire relocation process which involved additional layers of communication, approval and collaboration, he explained the why and clarified next steps. Most importantly, he prioritized and listened to our own intent, hopes, wish and dream.3) Capability: Clarity in his past performance of knowledge, skills and abilities as related to relocation sale. His portfolio of past achievements depicted one who was well connected with our home area, with other fellow realtors, and with the real-time data in establishing key milestone and decisions. His select group of partners in selling the home, beyond his own team, includes an exceptional staging professional as well as specialists in all areas as needed. Finally, as much as he is personable to our family as the seller/client, his high level of work ethic, professionalism and ability to negotiate in his client's favor was noted in how his partners carried themselves as well as the critical negotiations with the buyer's realtor.4) Result: End outcome. In a downturn market, with comparable neighborhood home sales that had been on the market with an average of 45 days, Joe and his team sold our home during the opening weekend by receiving multiple offers that included above asking price. Undoubtedly, I will be turning to Joe again should an opportunity rise in the future. Sincerely,Henry Shimhenrykshim@gmail.com

Joe Kehrig, 10/1/12 Susie and I would like to thank you for the outstanding results in selling our Danville home. Since this was the third transaction you have completed with us, we were confident that it would go well, but you exceeded our expectations, seems you have aged very well! Our goal was to sell for the best bottom line realization, while executing the sale within a time frame that allowed for an expeditious move to our new home in Lake Tahoe, and both these objectives were delivered. We appreciated your good direction in preparation for the sale, and counsel on a timeline that allowed us to get the property ready, but keeping the sale scheduled in a sweet spot for the market. We fixed the core things that did the majority of updating to the house, but did not sweat the minor issues. And your stager helped to tie our furnishings, which were not necessarily current items from the latest catalog. The house looked terrific, and we were very confident that is was competitive. I liked your approach to pricing, where we waited to the week we put it up for sale, and the market had heated up since our initial meeting, so we went out $50K higher than originally discussed. This in turn did not push off buyers, where we received multiple offers on the first day. I credit this to good marketing leading up to the sale date, your quality name in the business, the timing, and the great condition of the house. This positioned us well for the final key steps, the primary reason we hired you, the negotiation and closing. With multiple offers, you worked the agents to get the buyers to increase their price, or back out of the game. In the end, we never needed to counter offer, accepted a much higher price than our original asking, and had a backup just in case. You made it very easy for us, while involving our opinion where needed. Then you held the sale together with very little in time or money needed from us to complete all the required closing steps. I know this was not easy, and there was a lot going on in the background that we never saw, but we want you to know that is was very apparent to us, and for that we are grateful. Thanks for all the great work, and we would highly recommend you as a real estate agent to others – you are a true professional. We would welcome any calls if they would like to talk with us to help in their consideration. Joe and Susie Harrigan 775-298-2418

We initially chose to work with Joe on our relocation due to his knowledge of the East Bay market, his personal approach to helping with our transition and his proven track record with closing deals. From the beginning, Joe was very attentive to our needs and listened to our objectives. He was proactive throughout the home sale process and knew many key contacts to get the process moving efficiently and effectively. He took our opinions seriously and gave his guidance and advice appropriately. He had full awareness of our situation and the different stresses that are involved in a relocation. We sold in tight market conditions, but Joe helped us to price our home correctly and received several offers. Joe's assistance was truly appreciated from start to finish. This was a very successful transition for us and the new homeowners due to Joe's diligent, professional and thoughtful work style. Take care,Grace
