With over 20 years of combined real estate experience, Phil and Stella are full-time Realtors, specializing in the sales and marketing of homes throughout Santa Clara County. Phil and Stella are experts in their field and are happy to serve all of your real estate needs in the fast-paced Silicon Valley.

Prior to acquiring her real estate license, Stella worked as a Property Manager in commercial real estate. During this time, Stella acquired experience in areas of real estate that many professionals neglect. Her management skills are unparalleled and her knowledge of what it takes to manage a successful transaction helps her to ensure that her clients experience nothing but a smooth stress-free real estate experience.
In 2003 Lee Thomas, Phil’s sister joined Phil and Stella to help create the Phil and Stella Real Estate Team. Lee brings her years of experience from the banking industry which demands attention to detail to help ensure that all critical areas of contract management are fulfilled. Today’s average transaction has over 100 forms as well as inspections to schedule, disclosures that need to be signed and returned correctly, contingencies removed within the timelines of the contract and contractual work scheduled and coordinated with the contractors. If any of these details are mishandled, this leads to problems during the escrow. Together the Phil and Stella Real Estate Team ensure that all of these details are handled and done correctly to better serve our clients.
Memberships Phil and Stella are members of the Santa Clara County Association of REALTORS®, the California Association of REALTORS® and the National Association of REALTORS®. All of these associations uphold a strict code of ethics and ensure that their members are up to date on the latest marketing techniques and legislation affecting real estate.
