My name is Tom Bashe, and I am a broker associate with Coldwell Banker Realty and team lead of the Bashe Team. I have been licensed for almost 20 years, and have sold upwards of 500 homes and condos since 2003. I have over 150 five star client reviews across Yelp, Google & Zillow as I pride myself in treating my clients like family. The Real Estate market is up almost 15% in the past year, with multiple offers and bidding wars becoming the new norm. Choosing the right Realtor to work with can make all the difference between closing escrow next month vs. constantly having your offers rejected as the market continues to climb 1% a month. I would love to have a quick phone call to discuss whether my team is the right fit for your real estate needs.
