Aneesha Aggarwal & Arpan Punyani

What do you love the most about your neighborhood?

Arpan

I love that we can walk to Roosevelt and to our friends’ houses all over the neighborhood. I also love how friendly everyone is, and how every street is tree-lined; it gives it a great feel year round.

Aneesha

The community and walkability to the kid’s school.

What was your journey like buying a home, and what surprised you the most?

Aneesha

Surprising. We stumbled upon the perfect home on a rainy December day, actually my birthday!

Arpan

We had a bit of a unique process in that we were not searching for months or years. Once we started looking we happened to come across one that felt right in our price range, and the best part was being right next door to Roosevelt where both our kids will go.

What was your experience like selling your home?

Arpan

Selling our home was bittersweet; it was the first home we bought in Burlingame and was where our kids had many firsts. But we were fortunate that we had strong demand so the process was relatively quick. We did also realize how much of a benefit it was to stage the home!

Aneesha
