The Frazzano Tse Team Unmatched Results. Expectations Exceeded.

“Joe Frazzano made a stunning full renovation to our home in a well organized and efficient manner. His excellent communication and wonderful personality made him a true pleasure to work with. After completion, he safely showed and sold our home in a very short amount of time in the midst of a pandemic. Surprisingly, it didn’t complicate matters for him that my husband and I were out of the country throughout the entire process. We couldn’t be more pleased with his professionalism, attention to detail and responsiveness. We highly recommend Joe Frazzano and his team!” - Recent Client Review

Another year—Top 1% of Agents in Contra Costa and Alameda Counties! Thank you to my wonderful clients who trusted me with their real estate needs. I am truly grateful! CELESTE’S CLIENTS SAY: “We have used Celeste 2 times in selling our homes in the Bay area and both times her attention to detail was impeccable. She has a great team that made sure the transactions were seamless. Not only a professional that will get the job done but a friend that cares about you and your family.” – C.C. “Celeste was a joy to work with. She definitely knows her stuff and is an expert in her field. She walked us through the process and kept us very informed (and calm). I recommend her to all our friends and family.” – M.B.

“Celeste did a great job of leading us throughout the sales process and we are very pleased with the results. Her knowledge of the market, her network of help, and her ability to create demand for our home was first rate! We would happily recommend her to anyone considering selling or buying a home!” – R.H.

“Celeste was a pleasure to work with. We had a very difficult transaction to complete with lots of twists and turns throughout the process. Celeste was on top of every issue. Her experience, industry knowledge, calmness, diligence, judgement and logic were essential to our successful bid. Her assistance and persistence continued after the sale as well. She did not just walk away after the sale was completed; we had a number of after-sale issues and Celeste was always available to guide us. Celeste made a difficult transaction as seamless as possible. We would recommend her without hesitation to either a buyer or seller. Her integrity, knowledge and experience are at the top of the class.” – L.D.

“We chose Celeste to represent us when selling our home. She is a consummate professional, and as one of the top agents in our area, she did not disappoint. She paid attention to every stage of the transaction, from market research to photography and staging, listing, and closing. We received multiple offers within a short period. She instinctively knew how to market our home’s unique features to bring us the highest return on our investment. Home-selling is stressful; Celeste’s responsiveness and calm demeanor eased the tension and got us through it. We highly recommend Celeste Pacelli.” – L.S.

“Celeste did a great job for the entire process of selling our home. Everything from how to get the house ready to list, timing of bringing on the market to just being understanding of when we could show the house. She was one of the best agents I have had and I’ve moved many times.” – R.B.

uring this very challenging time with so many people struggling, I chose to sponsor a fundraiser last year for a local food bank, Loaves and Fishes,

and I matched 25% of all donations received. Due to the generosity of so many people, we raised $16,000, which provided weekly meals to over 1,000 people! Based on the success of this, I have decided to continue this program into 2021. If you’d like to help, please donate to: http://weblink.donorperfect.com/CelestePacelli Thank you to all who donated to this worthy charity. Your generosity is much appreciated! Wishing you peace, hope, and a bright 2021. May you and your family stay safe and healthy.

AT LUXE REAL ESTATE, we love what each day brings: a new client, a new property, a new life circumstance. And we value each opportunity to help someone find their dream home or sell their long-time property to achieve something greater in life.

It’s an incredibly rewarding experience that we never take for granted.

“

Working with Sante was such a great experience. He was always available, responded

to every text and phone call, and made sure all of our questions regarding the property were addressed. He did not add any additional pressures. He was very knowledgeable about the market we were in and understood the competition. He let us make our

decisions and we respected that. We appreciated his style so much, that we also had

him list our home. In this very competitive market, Sante secured a great buyer for us in 10 days! I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor.” SELLER AND BUYER REVIEW
