Seb Frey

REALTOR

A little about me...

Sebastian “Seb” Frey is a licensed Real Estate Broker and REALTOR® serving the greater Silicon Valley area. A native of Berkeley, California, he enrolled at the University of California at Santa Cruz out of high school, before beginning his first career in Information Technology. His 10+ year career in IT took him to live and work in such exotic places as Alaska, Malaysia, Bali, France, the United Kingdom, Belgium, and of course, all throughout Silicon Valley.


Seb got his real estate salesperson’s license in 2003, and since then he has continued to educate himself and improve his skills. In 2005, Seb obtained his Real Estate Broker’s license, and Seb also holds a number of REALTOR designations, including CIPS, GRI, and CRS. Having been a real estate professional in the area for 19 years and counting, Seb brings an unusually high level of skill and expertise to every transaction he’s a part of, having sold well over 400 homes since obtaining his real estate license. Along the way, he’s earned dozens of five star ratings on Zillow, Yelp, Facebook, Google, and others.
Such a long and well-documented track record of success in residential real estate sales is matched by few Realtors in the markets he serves. First and foremost, Seb knows he owes his success to his clients who place enormous trust in his diligence, skill, and professionalism. Seb enjoys high levels of repeat and referral business, and he feels this stems from his obsession with providing outstanding value to his clients. He has a mania for providing above-and-beyond service on every transaction he’s a part of, with a “whatever it takes” credo. He is absolutely relentless in his dedication to helping his clients get the very best deal possible while minimizing the hassle, risk, and uncertainty inherent in real estate transactions.


Seb has traveled widely across the United States, Europe, and Asia for both business and pleasure. Having visited or lived in over half the United States and more than 50 countries world-wide, Seb is convinced that the greater San Francisco Bay Area is not just a nice place to live. He knows that it does, on balance, provide unparalleled opportunity for folks who live here to live the best life imaginable. This sentiment and conviction shine through in his work; he truly believes in the amazing value inherent in every property he represents.

"Working with Seb was an extremely positive experience from start to finish. At the beginning of our home search, Seb took time to meet with us to clarify exactly what we were looking for. During this meeting, he asked excellent questions that helped us both refine and expand our home search paramete
"I had my mindset on a particular house that was increasingly looking as though I couldn't get into it. The house seemed out of my reach. It was a foreclosure and up for auction.

"The best! Seb is the best at pricing, preparing, marketing, and negotiating. I have sold more homes than I will admit in public, and Seb was hands down the best agent I’ve worked with.

sebfrey Are you looking to sell your home? As a seller, it’s important to understand the things that often scare away potential buyers. And the #1 thing that scares them is an incorrectly priced home. Pricing your home too high will (almost) inevitably result in a less desirable outcome, even in a seller’s market. But don’t worry, I have the expertise and strategies to help you competitively price your home and drive interest from potential buyers. When you work with me, I’ll do a comprehensive walk-through of your property and ask you detailed questions about its condition. Then, we will analyze the current market and compare your home to similar ones that have recently sold in your neighborhood. Our pricing strategies consider various factors, including comparable homes for sale in your neighborhood, recent home sale prices in your area, and local market trends specific to your zip code. We also consider the overall condition of your home and any repairs, upgrades, or improvements you’ve made. While I will provide our expert guidance, the final say in the listing price of your home is ultimately yours. I will be there to support and encourage you every step of the way, as my goal is not only to sell your home but also to help you get the maximum return on your investment. Do you have questions about home prices or want to know the value of your home? Don’t hesitate to reach out to me via direct message anytime! 📲 I am here to help! #homepricing #pricingstrategy #sellyourhomewithus #realestatemarketingtips #bayarea #bayareacalifornia #sanjosesharks #sanjoseca #sanjoserealestate #downtownwillowglen #bayarealife #norcal #realtortips #compassrealtor #realestatetips #sellyourhome #bayarea #bayareacalifornia #sanjoseca #sanjoserealestate #norcal #timetosell #yournewhome #sellahome

sebfrey Attention sellers! Are you familiar with the Federal Reserve and its impact on your profits? Look no further because we have the answers for you. The Federal Reserve is the world's most powerful central bank, responsible for managing the largest economy in largest economy in the world. Its decisions directly affect borrowing costs for both businesses and individuals. When borrowing costs are low, businesses are motivated to expand and invest, resulting in a boost to the economy. On the other hand, high rates can discourage businesses from hiring and individuals from making big purchases. According to Greg McBride, the chief financial analyst for Bankrate, the Fed's influence extends to your job security, investment portfolio, debts, and the overall direction of the economy. With each change in the cost of money, there are far-reaching implications. Have specific questions about how the Fed is currently affecting your ability to purchase a new home?

sebfrey If you are here make sure you follow @sebfrey for the best real estate selling tips. Much like fashion, home design trends are constantly changing and evolving. Who would have thought that fanny packs would make a comeback as “belt bags” so soon? Interestingly, the current trend in home design is moving away from trends altogether. Homeowners are now prioritizing functionality and customization when making design decisions. This means designing a space based on its intended use, rather than following a specific trend. As I’ve heard from various sources, there are a multitude of home customization requests that have been gaining popularity, such as: - Home offices equipped with studio-quality lighting perfect for those Zoom calls. - Mudrooms with personalized buildouts tailored to meet the specific needs of each family. - Built-in dog bowls complete with water spigots for your furry companions. - Kitchen islands with adjustable heights, making them versatile for any use. - Outdoor kitchens with all the bells and whistles, including running water, ice machines, refrigerators, and even outdoor pizza ovens. - Amenities like a bar or home gym. Now, if you had the opportunity to have one of these amazing customizations in your home, which would you choose? I am excited to hear your thoughts and ideas! #realtortips #compassrealtor #realestatetips #sellyourhome #bayarea #bayareacalifornia #sanjoseca #sanjoserealestate #norcal #timetosell #yournewhome #sellahome Do you want more of these tips?
