As George was celebrating his 5th anniversary at Apple, a shift was happening in the residential real estate industry - home buyers were using the internet and technology more for their home searches and agents were relying more on the internet and social media to advertise homes for sale.
George approached Mary, who had been a successful and established realtor based out of Cupertino since 1983 and proposed the idea of partnering and forming a mother-son real estate team. George’s parents’ first reaction was surprising, given his successful roles in Apple. After several family discussions, George resigned from Apple and formed the Mary Tan Realty Team.
George had a huge advantage over other agents at the immediate start of his real estate career - and that was to partner side-by-side with Mary Tan. The number of transactions George was able to take part in was staggering and unheard of for any new agent. Even listening to Mary speak with clients was a regarded secret in the industry. George at once took it upon himself to scale Mary’s business and streamline the team’s overall operations. While helping Mary grow her side of the business, George has also honed his skill as a top buyer in Silicon Valley.
Having remodeled his own and countless clients’ homes, one of George’s strengths is his remodel/rebuild experience. He can walk into a and suggest simple cosmetic changes or larger scale floor plan reconfiguration. Clients have found this service to be a huge value add over other realtors.
The home selling and buying process is both rare and rewarding, but also emotional and stressful. George’s mission is to shoulder the burden for his clients and to transform the experience into a rewarding and fruitful one.
