What My Clients Say

I was born here when the population of the Tri-Valley was less than 6,500. Now, at nearly 227,000, this valley has incontrovertibly changed. In the past, I'd been pressured to hire agents referred by a relative and a friend. The transactions were stressful and cost me additional time and money. That changed! Patty Recupero's familiarity of the area is unparalleled and her ability to navigate the ...
