We refer our clients to Sean Herrero because the lender is the biggest variable in any transaction. With Sean, our buyers compete at the level of cash offers, close in as little as 10 days, and their Earnest Money is always protected. In the East Bay, that is the edge that wins the home you love.
"Robert is both tactical and strategic. He worked with us to set up an offer strategy, walking us through various outcomes and possible responses. He would roll up his sleeves and crawl under a foundation with me. His approach made our offer process smooth and efficient, which kept us calm and confident."Ashley C. · Buyer and Seller · The Parker George Team · East Bay
Across Berkeley, Oakland, Kensington, El Cerrito, Albany, Alameda, Piedmont, and the greater East Bay, the best homes attract multiple competitive offers. We bring the strategy -- Robert's tactical offer approach, Josie's problem-solving, the whole team's deep local knowledge. But the lender is what makes the financing as certain as cash. When we refer you to Sean, your offer carries the weight of a guaranteed close. That combination is nearly impossible to beat.
Sean fully pre-underwrites your loan before you write an offer. Your financing is verified and certain before you are ever in contract. Listing agents across the East Bay notice the difference immediately.
Cash-CompetitiveMost lenders take 30 to 45 days. Sean closes in as little as 10. In Berkeley, Oakland, and the competitive East Bay market, that speed is frequently the deciding factor in a multiple-offer situation.
10-Day CloseIf a lender error on Sean's part causes your loan to fail and the seller keeps your Earnest Money, Sean pays it back in full. A written guarantee, not a talking point.
Earnest Money ProtectedIf you have equity in your current home, you may not need to wait. Sean helps homeowners unlock that equity to buy their next home first, so you can move on your terms, skip the double move, and sell from a position of strength, not pressure.
Ask Sean How It WorksIf Sean's team makes a lender error that causes your loan to fail, and the seller tries to keep your Earnest Money Deposit, Sean will write you a check for the full amount. This is a written commitment, and it is why we trust him with every client we refer.
