A sense of place

The neighborhood with something for everyone.

West Sunnyvale doesn't do one-note. A biotech researcher walks to headquarters past a 1960s single-story; a family tends one of 92 plots at the Charles Street Garden; kids claim the fields at Washington Park. It's the side of Sunnyvale where the Valley's diversity — of people, jobs and housing — shows up on a single block.

Seller guidance

Selling your West Sunnyvale home?

A West Sunnyvale marketing plan should speak to the right buyer for the property type: families for the single-stories, professionals for the townhomes, investors for the multis. Each audience shops differently — the marketing should too.

Preparation starts with the specific property and its competitive set. From pricing and presentation to launch strategy, the goal is to connect the home with the buyer pool its type naturally attracts.
