Teri Fortino

My Italian family instilled in me the belief that owning property is the ultimate investment. Memories of my Sicilian grandparents growing produce on their own land, coupled with a keen eye for quality real estate, motivated me to obtain my real estate license at a young age, and have enjoyed being a Realtor for the last 20 years . For some agents Real Estate is a Sales Job, but for me it is my passion. See....I ALWAYS knew that I wanted to be a Realtor, so obtaining my License at 21, buying my first four-plex at 19, and working my way through college (10 years in night school) solidified my commitment to this lifestyle. Having served nearly 500 clients, I pride myself as one of the most recognized Realtors in the highly competitive South Bay of Silicon Valley California Markets. My commitment to you is that the "Buck Stops Here". I have a very small team here at Compass with a full time Buyer centric Teammate, an escrow coordinator, and like-kind support so that our clients feel heard, appreciated, and part of my Real Estate Family. Please check out my 5 STAR reviews on Zillow and I look forward to working with you in the future.
