Fixed up and staged to sell, Oakland, California. Just another home I enjoyed transforming.
One of my absolute favorite aspects about real estate is when I have the opportunity to prepare a home for sale. It’s my version of playing in the sand.
Whether it is coordinating the workers, choosing the light fixtures or managing the project, witnessing the transformation is always exciting and never gets old.

You never know what will transpire when you take an interview. It was a pleasant surprise. It caught me off guard when our publicist, Liz Kelly shared it with me. My first words, right after I read the first paragraph were, “WOW! Whomever wrote that could not be more dead on!” Most of the things I do seem to be, exactly as she wrote, “Accidentally, With Purpose.” I love that!
I went on to read the article and my heart sank as I read the second paragraph detailing briefly our connection to HIGHLAND PARTNERS. Both Adam and I recall quite vividly not only did we share Heidi’s name but spelled it out. Heidi
M A R C H E S O T T I our Partner. As stated on my website:
Adam and I are very grateful for the published article and look forward to serving more clients, meeting new people, while traveling and experiencing new things.
Accidentally, With Purpose.
With Gratitude,
Debbi DiMaggio
Be sure to partner with a Realtor who is looking out for your best interests. Your Realtor should be a specialist in the area you are seeking to sell or buy residential real estate. An honest agent, not a greedy one just seeking out a big commission will want the best for their client by referring a buyer or seller to another Realtor who knows the ins and the outs and the customs and the idiosyncrasies of that particular market, as well as the facts, that may or may not be public information. Likewise, a seller must realize that greed is not in their own best interest either. A seller hoping to transact a real estate deal on their own in order to forgo paying a real estate fee to a real estate professional will more often than not lose out.

If you are seeking to buy or sell outside of the East Bay please ask for a referral and I will be sure to connect you with a professional both compatible and one with the expertise in the market you are considering.
