Dale Perkins
Burlingame, Easton Addition | client since 2019
What do you love the most about your neighborhood?
Closeness of the neighbors- friendships.
What was your experience like selling your home?
The sale of my home was totally transparent and quickly done. At this point Evie had passed away. Thankfully Raziel was transparent and walked me through every aspect of the transaction. He made me feel comfortable and was very patient with my being naïve to it all.
What was your experience working with Raziel?
Total satisfaction.
Raziel is genuine to the core and working with him goes far beyond the transaction and continues for many years after. He has a reputation for his dedication to his clients, friends, and family beyond the norm and he goes the extra mile to create personal life-long trusts and relationships.
I have personally worked with many wonderful, professional realtors in Burlingame over the years but the choice of realtors was easy.
What is your proudest accomplishment?
There are more that I can count. I have been blessed with so many miracles in Burlingame.
What was your childhood ambition?
I was born during the big depression and lived mostly in small farming towns in Minnesota. I had no visions for the future. This was the pre-computer age.
What’s been your biggest challenge?
Living with cognitive limitations. Living with insecurities.
What was your first job?
Selling papers at Hyde and Ellis Streets(tenderloin) SF.
What’s your greatest Inspiration?
I am doing it now: I have many friends and opportunities to paint. Raziel has given me a second life of opportunities.
What’s on the top of your bucket list item?
NOTHING. I have always chased that next opportunity. They kept popping up. I was always totally consumed. FUN!

The team provided transparency to the entire processes right from the get-go which was very helpful with setting the right expectations. Our favorite was the comprehensive activities calendar and a checklist of to-do’s that helped keeping the chaos organized. Everyone was also very available and prompt in responding to questions and concerns. Definitely made a highly complex and potentially stressful event more manageable.

With Burlingame being such a competitive market, it was important to work with someone that really knew the town well. Growing up in Burlingame himself, you can tell how much he loves the town and what it has to offer. We particularly liked Raziel’s data driven approach and his approachable style. He made the process as easy as possible.

Raziel and his team are some of the nicest most honest people we have met. I can't think of anyone more knowledgeable, patient, thoughtful and flexible to work with. Overall, they exceeded all our expectations. Working with Raziel was one of the best decisions we ever made.

If you are looking to buy or sell a home on the Peninsula (particularly Burlingame and San Mateo), you will not go wrong with Raziel. He was recommended by a close friend and I couldn't have been more pleased. He helped me to quickly negotiate and purchase a home with a tough seller, and sell my home immediately afterward.

Once we began working with Raziel to find a property in Burlingame, the process was seamless and Raziel represented us incredibly well. Raziel’s insightfulness, astute contract and negotiation skills, and ability to move quickly allowed us to confidently navigate the bidding process with great success.
— Cindy & Jim Greysen
Raziel was great about breaking down the neighborhoods so we could focus on aspects that appealed to us and better understand the local market. When I did bid, I felt like we had a pretty good understanding of what to expect in terms of process and market price.

During our first meeting, Raziel asked thoughtful questions and took the time to walk us through his process. We respected that he set out the terms of his approach in clear, honest language.
— Joyce Chen & Wayne Hwang
Our experience selling our home was fast and fun! It took a matter of weeks and did not require much effort on our part since Raziel and his team were excellent about keeping us on schedule and moving along with various tasks. They coordinated painters, stagers, showings, etc., with minimal direction from us, but of course were also open to our suggestion. The exercise of taking offers in-person suited our style perfectly and left us feeling very good about the family our home ended up with and our final sale price.
