About Andrew

I love helping people find a space to call home.

I'm so excited about the prospect of working together! A little bit about me: I was born and raised in San Francisco, spent 5 years in tech, and am fulfilling my dream of helping others plant roots through the home buying process.
In my spare time, I love road biking, coffee, and my pup, Mango.

Sellers

Prepare

Through a collectively planned approach, Andrew will work with you to consider any property improvements and build out a tailor made marketing plan. Strategic marketing can include working with best in class stagers, photographers, and videographers to highlight your property in its finest moment.

Sell

After an extensive marketing campaign and showing schedule, offers will be expertly negotiated to your satisfaction. You have worked hard to maintain your property and Andrew strives to get top dollar for your assets.

Buyers

Plan

The first step is to determine your purchase criteria (location, budget, features), as well as obtaining a lender pre-approval. Andrew and Light Realty have an extensive network of stellar lenders and mortgage brokers to streamline this process.

Find

The journey is just as important as the destination! Leveraging Light Realty’s extensive proprietary database and agent connections, we will begin to view and tour active listings and off-market opportunities. Once you are ready to place an offer on that perfect property, we will prepare and present your winning offer.

Close

Once and offer has been accepted and ratified, Andrew works tirelessly to get your transaction across the finishline. From arranging and reviewing property inspections, to satisfying any contingencies, we ensure a smooth close of escrow.

What People Are Saying

Andrew is always, at least, 10 steps ahead. Deals often fall through because of the details, but even in the first few times I worked with Andrew, it was clear that he had the details covered. He had both the answers to the questions I had before I even asked him and he knew the exact questions that I should have also been asking.

Joseph, Buyer in Los Angeles, CA
Working with Andrew was an absolute 5 star experience. As first time homebuyers we didn’t know what to expect, so it was a relief to be in the best hands. Andrew outlined a clear process for our home search, worked diligently and tirelessly to find options and arrange showings, and kept in close, helpful communication, both with us and all the parties needed to close the deal on our new home! Everything was transparent, efficient and client centric. We recommend him with confidence. You’ll be partnered with the best!

Rachel, Buyer in Pleasant Hill, CA
As a first time home buyer, I had a lot of questions and fears. Andrew was so patient with me and really helped calm my nerves! He’s knowledgeable, quick at communicating, and really cares for his clients. Highly recommend!

Linda, Buyer in Union City, CA
Andrew helped us to buy our first house and he made it a great experience even when the market was crazy. He patiently answered all our questions, understood perfectly what we were looking for, and researched thoroughly. He helped us overcome obstacles with lenders and guided us through every step to the negotiation to get our offer accepted. I’m super thankful for all his details through this process.

Marcela, Buyer in San Jose, CA
Andrew helped us strategize our offer to make it as strong as possible and he never pushed us where we felt uncomfortable with the offer. His strategy and charm to the sellers helped us win out against 15+ offers. He was responsive throughout the process and went the extra mile to fly down to us whenever we needed him (he's based in Northern California and we live in Southern California). We are happy that we worked with Andrew in buying our next home because we believe we wouldn't be able to do it in this market on our own.

Steven, Buyer in Cypress, CA
Andrew is an extremely professional agent. He made the whole process easy and smooth. My bid came down to me and a couple other parties and I truly believe Andrew developing a strong relationship with the seller agent was the differentiator. If you go with Andrew you will get someone who won't beat around the bush, will be up front with you about expectations, and will do everything in his power to get the result you are looking for.

Edward, Buyer in Chino Hills, CA
We were referred to Andrew after over a year of searching for a home with another realtor. Andrew was very responsive, took the time to learn what we were looking for, great in explaining the market, and sent over houses that had our desired traits. Within a month of working with Andrew we were able to get our offer accepted which we closed in less than a month. Really appreciate his help especially during these volatile times.

Milinda, Buyer in Whittier, CA
Andrew helped us to buy our first home and guided us through the process in record time! As first time home buyers, my wife and I had a lot of questions and Andrew was always available to jump on a quick call and help clarify everything for us. There were some complications during closing on the seller's side, but Andrew's negotiation skills proved second to none in championing our needs. My wife and I would definitely work with Andrew again in the future, and would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for their next home.

Hector, Buyer in San Jose, CA
Absolutely loved working with Andrew! As a first time home buyer, I didn't know what to expect and he was extremely helpful throughout the entire process. He was quick to arrange showings and find new options during the home search, and was always very responsive and communicative as we progressed through escrow. As someone newly navigating through the whole home buying process, Andrew's knowledge was invaluable in helping me understand every step of the way and making this purchase possible. Would highly recommend him to anyone seeking a new home.

Calvin, Buyer in Los Angeles, CA
We loved working with Andrew. The best parts about Andrew are that he’s: Communicative and extremely responsive, Knowledgeable about the whole process, Patient, and Professional. Ultimately the house we ended up buying was only possible because of Andrew, as he found the sellers and saw a unique opportunity for us to make an enticing offer. These days there are so many tools available to buyers, but it comes down to the realtor to have the negotiation ability and eye for when a good opportunity comes along. I recommend Andrew to everyone. We could not have had a better agent.

Gloria, Buyer in Oakland, CA
As a mortgage broker, I get to work with a lot of Realtors. After the privilege of working with Andrew on multiple transactions, I came away very impressed. His attention to detail and knowledge was second to none. He was always fighting and negotiating for his clients’ best interest. In this extremely tough market for buyers, he continues to find creative ways to get his clients into contract. Andrew provides a wealth of knowledge to his clients which helps them make incredibly informed decisions. Do yourself a favor and work with Andrew, you won’t regret it!
