Straight answers to the questions San Jose and Silicon Valley buyers and sellers ask Chris Renois most often.
Who is Chris Renois?
Chris Renois is a San Jose and Silicon Valley Realtor with 14 years in Bay Area real estate. He is licensed in California (DRE #02030130) and works with Real Estate Experts from its office at 910 E Hamilton Ave, Suite 130, in Campbell. Reach him at (650) 512-9817 or chrisrenois@therealexperts.com.
What areas of the Bay Area does Chris serve?
Chris helps buyers and sellers across San Jose and Silicon Valley, including Willow Glen, Almaden Valley, Cambrian, Campbell, Los Gatos, Saratoga, Cupertino, Santa Clara, Sunnyvale, Mountain View, Palo Alto, Los Altos, Menlo Park, Milpitas, Fremont, and South County communities like Gilroy and San Martin.
How can I find out what my home is worth?
Start with the free home value estimate at chrisrenoisteam.com/evaluation. For a property-specific number, Chris prepares a comparative market analysis that looks at recent nearby sales, your home's condition and layout, and current competition. An online estimate is a starting point, not a substitute for that discussion.
Do I need a written agreement to work with a buyer's agent?
Yes. Under current industry rules and California law, buyers sign a written representation agreement with their agent before touring homes together. Commissions are not set by law and are negotiable. Chris walks you through every term, including how compensation works, in plain language before you sign.
Buying and Selling Questions
Practical answers for planning your next move in San Jose and Silicon Valley.
Should I renovate before selling my home?
There is no universal answer. Chris starts with your home's condition, likely buyers, budget and timeline, then helps you separate essential repairs and modest presentation updates from projects whose cost or delay may outweigh their value. His free Home Selling Guide on the Local Guides page covers preparation, staging, pricing and marketing.
How long does it take to get a home ready to sell?
It depends on the work involved, vendor availability, access and the documents you need to gather. Chris builds a property-specific schedule before you choose a launch date. You can start planning months ahead; an early conversation helps identify the decisions that take the most time.
Should I get pre-approved before I start looking at homes?
It helps to work on both at once. Exploring neighborhoods early is useful, but a financing conversation with a lender makes your search realistic. Compare the full monthly cost, including taxes, insurance and any HOA dues, and remember that the amount a lender approves and the amount you are comfortable spending may differ.
Are Chris's buyer and seller guides really free?
Yes. The Buyer's Handbook and the Home Selling Guide are free PDFs on the Local Guides page. Enter your name, phone and email and the download starts right away, and Chris can follow up if you have questions.
We worked with Chris during our home buying transaction. Chris is very energetic and responsive! If you want to have an agent who is always by your side during home buying process, definitely go with Chris. He is really good negotiator, he helped us to get some rebates and refunds from bank. He did not just help us till closing day but also after that, he always answered our questions in great details.
