Mike Aranda Bay Area Real Estate - San Carlos, California

Vanessa Liu

We just closed on our first home with Mike and we're so happy to have him support us through out this process. He's knowledgeable, well-connected, gets to know you and your preferences, and has the drive/hustle that is honestly so rare.

In our initial engagement, he spent a good amount of time on the phone with us to get to know us, followed by an entire Saturday driving around different neighborhoods. As our house hunting began, he knocked door to door in his own time and shared many off market leads with us; and always respectful when we didn't feel it was a good fit. He is generous with his time, met with us at random odd hours and responsive/communicative throughout.

Because he was well connected, he provided sound advice and guidance including our offer strategy and I think we found/won our dream home because of he was so well connected. Even after closing, he's continues to stay engage and helps out with our remodeling projects, I'm so thankful and highly recommend Mike!

We met Mike in 2021 when he sold our neighbor’s house. He did a good job of staying in touch with us, and when we were trying to decide to sell, he was our first call. Mike was a great partner throughout this process! He provides quick and thorough communication. We had the support of a whole team helping us get in the market very quickly. Ultimately, Mike got us an offer that exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Mike and the Guide team!

Strongly recommend working with Mike if you are looking to buy a home in San Carlos / Belmont. We were referred to Mike from trusted friends. Throughout our house hunt, we trusted him 100% of the time and felt that he always had our best interests at heart.

Some of the other things that stood out --

1. Deal Flow: Although the house we ultimately purchased wasn't an off market transaction, we were able to see >90% of the on and off market opportunities during our search.

2. Network: Mike had an existing relationship of nearly every single listing agent in the San Carlos / Belmont Area.

3. Advisory: There were multiple times where Mike was able to call a contractor our within 24 hrs to get a secondary opinion on foundations, moving walls, etc.

Thank you Mike for helping us find a home in the Peninsula!

We had the pleasure of working with Mike during our search for our first home, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. From the beginning, Mike listened attentively to our needs and preferences, guiding us through the seemingly daunting process of home buying. His expertise and patience helped us narrow down our options and find the perfect home in a location that exceeded our expectations.

Mike's ability to explain complex real estate concepts in a clear and understandable manner was invaluable to us as first-time buyers. He took the time to answer all of our questions and alleviate any concerns we had along the way. His dedication to finding us the right home truly made a difference in our search.

Thanks to Mike's knowledge and guidance, what initially seemed like a daunting task became a smooth and enjoyable process. We're incredibly grateful for his support and couldn't have found our dream home without him. We highly recommend Mike to anyone in search of a reliable, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring realtor. Thank you, Mike, for helping us turn our homeownership dreams into reality!

Mike and team did a fantastic job selling our home in San Carlos! He initially knocked on our door and kept us up to date with what was going on with the marker until our timing was right. The whole Guide team is responsive, professional and overall we couldn't be happier with our decision to go with their firm. Highly recommend!

Mike helped my husband and I purchase our first home in the Bay Area. He was helpful and patient and always available for anything we needed throughout the process.

He helped us put together a winning offer and we were able to close on our home in under 30 days. He even helped us move!

We couldn’t recommend Mike enough.

Mike Aranda and his team excelled at communication, reasonable renovation costs, timing and scheduling work, service providers, marketing, negotiating skillls, and doing exactly what he promised to do. Being an appraiser for 35 yrs, I had pretty high expectations (interviewed several orher realtors too) and they exceeded them. Mike actually negotiated a higher price and buyer to pick up additional costs. I live out of state and they handled everything for a very smooth transaction. I highly recommend their services!
