"Thank you, you made it happen...Please accept this  reference, and do not hesitate to have people call me. Having made my living in sales, and sensing that the part of the market I am in was still pretty strong, I hesitated at the thought of spending close to $70,000 to sell my house. Having said that, I am glad I did.  I do not believe that I would have sold my house for anywhere near the price I did, in the time I did, or with the level of effort I had to expend, had I tried some other way.I have bought and sold nine houses in the last 13 years, and in each case I believe I was represented by the best agent in the market...You were able to make every part of the sale happen, and recommended outstanding people who acted on very tight timetables to get our house sold in less than 30 days from the time we decided to sell, until we had closed.  When it came time to make sure the details were right, and when I needed advice on how to handle offers,  you were right there and I felt confident in your judgment.  Lastly, unlike some of the bigger firms, there was no attempt to nickel and dime me with extra fees on top of the commission. Thank you for making it happen."  ~ T.W., Los Altos

"Recently it was our pleasure to contract with Pam Blackman of Intero Real Estate Services to sell our home of 20 years...This was our second direct contact sale with Pam and our third family related transaction...Pam is everything a real estate agent should be. Honest, hard working, knowledgeable, always there for her clients and a "Master of Marketing".  Her patience, knowledge, and contact with the trades proved invaluable in helping us complete the transition from a cluttered but comfortable home to a VERY appealing and saleable commodity.  This was proven by multiple offers, sold in one weekend, final result! As one of our neighbors said when she saw the "SOLD" sign, 'Awesome'.  We will be forever thankful that we took the first step in calling Pam for that all-important pre-sale market analysis...A true professional...when someone looks in a dictionary for the meaning of the word 'REALTOR' there should be a picture of Pam Blackman.  Thank you for all of your hard work." ~ LA & PA, Mountain View
