It’d be reasonable to characterize the 2020 market performance of Burlingame Gardens as a “return to normal” in an abnormal world. The entry-level neighborhood located east Broadway saw its average and median prices plummet in 2020, 32% and 28% respectively, until it settled at an average of $1.64 million ($1.73 million median), making it Burlingame’s most affordable neighborhood by far. This doesn’t mean that Burlingame Gardens fell out of favor with buyers in 2020 — far from it. Homes here sold for 105.7% of asking in 2020, the highest such figure in Burlingame. They commanded $1,311 per square foot (second-highest in the city) and took an average of only 13 days to sell, down 39% from 2019’s 21. The drop in average price is simple: smaller homes, averaging 1,254 square feet, sold in Burlingame Gardens in 2020.

We understood how important it was having the right person on our team. Raziel was that person and made the process very streamlined and focused. From our first meeting until we closed on our home Raziel was always available and an invaluable advocate.

When we first started looking, it was a bit de-moralizing. We were looking at open houses, and things were either too expensive, or disappeared from the market immediately. Once we knew we were serious, we interviewed a few realtors and really liked Raziel. We ended up buying the first house we looked at with him, and it was much easier than we expected. Raziel is one of the most honest, intelligent, professional, competent, and fundamentally good people we've worked with.
