Madhu Murali and Deepti Anand

What do you love the most about your neighborhood?

Madhu

There are many things to love about the neighborhood but what I have loved the most so far is how welcoming the community has been. We have gotten to know our neighbors and have met so many new people during our walks and they have all been very friendly and welcoming.

Deepti

Halloween was my highlight of the year! Had so many kids come by for treats. Never said happy halloween those many times in my life :D. Really enjoy all my walks with Madhu and Pebbles. Neighbors are so kind. Can’t ask for more.

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

Deepti

Surprised by how quickly we found our beautiful home, thanks to Raziel! We were kind of going back and forth on the area (San Mateo, SF, and Foster City) but finally zeroed in on Burlingame.

Madhu

The journey was fun and exciting but also scary at times. It’s not really a surprise anymore but it was mind-blowing to see the number of people in the market to buy a home, especially in the peninsula and especially in the Burlingame area. On the one side, there is a lot of competition but on the other side, it tells you that it's a great neighborhood and many people want to live here.

What was your experience working with Raziel?

Deepti

Pleasant. He gave us great insights into homes that we looked at together.

What was your childhood ambition?

Deepti

To be an FBI agent after watching the X-Files as a child when content ratings weren’t a thing.

I don’t think I had a particular ambition if I am being honest. I just wanted to be happy and worry-free.
