MEET ELIZABETH

Hello! My name is Elizabeth Cerda and I’m a proud soccer mom of two young men, Alex 22 and Gabe 17. I was born in Mexico and moved to Oakland when I was a year old. I attended Skyline High School in Oakland and San Francisco State University. My major, and most of my background, is in Hospitality Management. I have also had many opportunities to work with young people.
Teaching and Connecting is my forte. I taught catechism at St. Elizabeth Church in Oakland and was an instructional aide and after-school program teacher at Dolores Huerta Learning Academy. After working with others and helping people most of my life, I realized that real estate is my passion. Prior to obtaining my real estate license, I searched homes for sale for fun and often checked out "Open Houses" as a hobby with my boys. I even matched different family members and friends to different homes that I thought were a good choice for them! They encouraged me to start a career in real estate.

WHY USE AN AGENT TO SELL?
When the market is favoring the Seller, it may seem like a slam-dunk to sell a home. But there are so many ways things can go wrong for a seller who tries to represent themselves in selling a home.
The legal aspects of the contract alone are getting harder to navigate and seller’s need a professional that can write a solid contract, protecting their interests. In this fast market, of an average of 15 days on the market, using an Agent is more likely to get a fair market value for your home, assist with qualified buyers, and make sure your investment is represented properly and sold.
WHY USE AN AGENT TO BUY?
-
They have a ton of training! Buying a home requires lots of forms, reports, documents, disclosures, and other technical stuff. Agents can help you prepare an offer, advise you with contingencies, avoid costly mistakes, and delays in the process.
-
Real Estate Agents have even more search power than you do when it comes to finding listings that fit your criteria.
-
They know how to negotiate. It’s their job to help you be successful in this market. Knowing what to negotiate and what favors not to ask is part of their skill set.
-
They are connected to everyone in the industry. Agents make it their job to know everyone that can possibly help in the process of buying. Mortgage brokers, real estate attorneys, home inspectors, stagers, and more, are in their network.
-
Whether you are buying from a friend or relative, you should have someone that has your back representing your interests. Buying a home is one of the largest purchases you will ever make.
