About Shamina Khan - Homes by SK

What got me started in Real Estate? 

I've always had an interest in Real Estate, but because of my focus and many years in banking, I never really had the opportunity to entertain that route.   It wasn't until 2018, when I started to feel stagnant in my banking role, that encouraged me to finally purse Real Estate.

I didn't intend on leaving banking, but I knew I needed a new challenge, and  real estate was always a trade I wanted to learn, so why not?  And I'm so glad I did, because in 2020 when things took a turn due to the pandemic, I was finally given the opportunity to pivot my  career from banking to Real Estate.  Thankfully both industries pretty much go hand in hand, so transitioning was nearly seamless, especially when it came to client relations.  

Why do I like Real Estate?

There's no better feeling than the one I get, when I've helped my client achieve a lifetime goal, or the greatest return on their investments.  There's something special about being part of that exciting moment when someone's goals or dreams have been fulfilled - I truly live for those moments!

What Areas do I cover? 

While I focus primarily on the Bay Area, there isn't a territory I won't explore.  I have successfully closed deals from Lake Tahoe, all the way down to Palm Desert. Yes, I literally go the extra mile for my clients!

I also handle a variety of transactions and property types, including Single Family Homes, Retirement Communities, New Construction, Condos, and Investment Properties.

Where  am I from, and where did I grow up?

I’m first-generation American, and was born and raised in the Bay Area.  My grandparents emigrated from the Fiji Islands in the 60s, so you could say, my connection to and knowledge of the Bay Area run pretty deep – This is Home!  

Why you should choose me to be your Realtor? 

Buying a home is a major life decision, and I understand the challenges involved. There's so much that goes into finding the right home; I take the time to get to know you as my client, and actively listen to what your needs are.  

My goal is to provide expertise in the current market, create a plan of action, and give clear guidance throughout the entire process. I know it can be intimidating when faced with something unfamiliar, but you can trust me to be there to guide you every step of the way.  I take pride in ensuring a stress-free experience for you. 

Feel free to check out my 'Testimonials' section to see what others' think (I promise these are all real people with real stories! lol). My clients share their experiences of what it's like working with me,  emphasizing my commitment and guidance at every step. I'm more than just your realtor and advisor, you'll come to find that I'm also your friend and confidant.

What do I do in my spare time?

Who has spare time?  haha, jk! Beyond real estate, there are many things I take interest in.  I enjoy spending time with family & friends, traveling, exploring new hobbies, cooking, watching sports, live concerts, comedy, trying different cuisines, and caring for my plants – I’m happy to share tips on that too! Honestly, there really isn't much that I'm not interested in. 

Thank you for the taking the time to know a bit about me. If you'd like to know or learn more, then don't hesitate to reach out to me... Real Estate waits for no one, and it's time for you to make your move!

I look forward to getting to know you, and sharing your success story next!  

May God Bless you with Peace, Love, Health and Success, always!

With kindest regards, 

Shamina
