About Paarth

Before real estate I was a data analyst at LinkedIn and a financial analyst at the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco, where I reviewed proformas in the affordable housing pipeline and judged whether projects were on track. A proforma is a forecast that wants to be believed. You learn quickly which assumptions are carrying a deal and which were chosen because the deal does not work without them. A listing price, a rent estimate and an appreciation figure are the same thing. Somebody's assumptions wearing a number. I also own and am developing a project of my own through entitlement and pre-construction, which is where you find out how far a rendering is from a permit, and why housing supply looks the way it does. What that means in practice: You get the figure, its source, and its date. Then you get what it does not cover, because that is usually the part that decides things. When the data cannot answer your question I will say so rather than dress a guess up as an answer. I track city-level medians, price per square foot, days on market and sale-to-list ratios across the Bay Area and Sacramento, and I publish the analysis rather than keeping it for listing appointments. Ask me what a street actually sells for and you will get comps, not an opinion. Areas: the Tri-Valley, the East Bay and Contra Costa County, with market coverage across the wider Bay Area and Sacramento.
