"Carmen got our house sold fast and for top dollar. We inherited a house that needed updates, so I went searching for a REALTOR who could help us rehab and sell it and I found Carmen. She coordinated about 10 different tradespeople and I was sent the quotes and later invoices. The tradespeople did did good work, were fast and super fair pricing. And I’m cheap. The entire rehab took 3 or 4 weeks and the house looked completely different. We spent about 50k in rehab. Went from shabby to classy chic. My mom and girlfriend were in disbelief when they saw the After pics. My mom told me she is DEFINITELY using Carmen to sell her properties. Carmen gave us 3 options/strategies for a list price. We ended up with 5 offers and ended up countering the two cash offers and accepted an offer that was 65k over our strategic list price. I’m checking the bank account this Friday for a big wire transfer. – Carmen picks up phone or returns calls within a few minutes. Texts are responded to quickly as well. – She doesn’t double end deals. – She brought us great offers – She’s on your side and you know it.”
Testimonial from the former owner:
I had lived in my house for over 40 years and your team did a fantastic job of updating - I almost did not recognize the house after your stylish renovation. You led an excellent group of professionals in achieving this feat. Furthermore, it paid off in the multiple offers that arrived and the final excellent sale price. Aside from the financial aspect, working with you has been a pleasure. Your positive attitude and "can do" approach when any snag came up was very reassuring. You are great at explaining all aspects of the sale process. I would strongly recommend you to anyone who is looking to sell or buy a home in the Peninsula. May you continue to have great success in the future.
This Millbrae residence had great bones, but the closed floor plan, fixtures, paint, garden, kitchen and the bathrooms were all in need of a complete facelift. Luckily, Carmen works with a short list of designers, contractors, and craftspeople vetted as meeting her high standards for quality, timeliness, customer service, and accuracy. This process includes demolition and hauling to the final white-glove cleaning, where contractors and service providers work together to ensure that all tasks are completed impeccably and on time.
Believe it or not, this home’s livable square footage is less than 1,800 SqFt. With Carmen, the complete renovation unleashed this property’s potential – and netted my sellers a RECORD SALE PRICE! In addition to enhancing interiors, taking the exterior of a home to another level is a further area of expertise where Carmen shines. She knows the best designers and contractors for updating landscaping, doors, windows, trim, etc. Her goal is an outdoor look and feel that’s both striking at first glance and welcoming to a serious potential buyer.
My wife and I knew that our property was attractive, but that it needed work in order to attain its full sale price potential. So, we interviewed five REALTORS and asked how they’d improve and market the house. The answers we liked best came from Carmen Miranda, of Compass, Burlingame. Over the last few years, we’d seen what Carmen and her team of contractors, painters, landscapers, decorators, stagers and more had done for other homes sold in our neighborhood. Since we were vacating the house and moving out-of-state, Carmen kept an eye during the updating and remodeling of our home. The results were spectacular! Our house attracted scores of online views and in-person tours. Within just a few days, it sold for the highest price ever paid for a property in our development. Carmen’s friendliness, easy laugh, good cheer, confidence, and competence made our remodeling and sale process an actual pleasure. If you want a real estate agent who performs well beyond expectations, we highly recommend her!
This redwood shores condo had great bones, but was fixtures, paint, and the bathrooms were showing signs of aging.
With Carmen, the complete renovation of this 2,300 square-foot home took just six weeks, allowing her to list it during a market upswing she had predicted.
The upgraded kitchen has new cabinets (except island cabs), new cabinet hardware, new quartz countertops, new light fixtures and More. Hardwood floors and new plush carpets throughout. New light fixtures and switches/outlets. The inviting oversized rear patio is perfect for all to enjoy. Shell Cove complex enjoys a Community Center, Pool, Spa, Tennis Courts and Childrens Playground. Excellent Foster City schools are a plus. Dont overlook this one!
