Helping You Realize The American Dream

Brittany Armenta
Brittany Armenta Perez, REALTOR®

I have been in real estate for several years now with Keller Williams Realty, the same office Libby and Ken are in. When I got started, I asked Libby to be my mentor. She has and continues to share her experience and wisdom with me today.

I am a go-getter! Although I have held my real estate license for 7 years, I have already put my team together and I’m one of the Top Producers in our office.

I grew up locally and know the area and the real estate market very well. I am a mother of two young children, a boy and a girl.

I pride myself on my ability to be very empathetic, and I work well with young and old alike. I consider myself an excellent communicator and I’m bi-lingual as well. A fluent speaker of Spanish, I further expand Guthrie Group Homes’ ability to serve our community.

How I Got Started in Real Estate

Twenty or so years ago, Libby sold my folk’s several houses over a period of time. Then a number of years ago, I was working at a bank and doing quite well. I wanted to buy my own house. So, I contacted a local real estate agent who told me she thought I was too young, I was twenty years old at the time, and that I couldn’t qualify to buy a house.

While visiting my parents, I told my mother about what was going on with this agent I was working with and how disappointed I was that I could not buy my own home. 😥

My mother walked over to the refrigerator, took off one of Libby and Ken’s recipe cards, and handed it to me. My mom said, “Call Libby!” Coincidentally, my mother was going to fix that recipe that day! 😁

As you might have guessed already, Libby got me into a home.

Soon after, I decided to get into real estate myself. I wanted to help others realize the dream of homeownership just the way I had.

Brittany Armenta Perez & Associates

As I mentioned before, I have my own team. I am the Team Leader and lead listing agent, while the rest of my team specialize as buyers agents, team sales manager, and one team member is my Executive Assistant.

You’re probably asking yourself, “how is this going to work with Libby and Ken?” Glad you asked!

Libby will still be your first point of contact. If you’re looking to buy, sell, or you have a referral, just call Libby as usual. Libby will discuss your situation with you and help determine who is best to serve your needs.

If it’s appropriate, Libby will introduce you to me and we’ll go from there.

What Does My Team bring to the Guthrie Group?

As you might have noticed, the real estate market is thriving this year. Libby and Ken wanted to expand their team to be able to serve you better.

My team not only serves East Contra Costa County but much of the Bay Area. So if you, your family, or friends are looking to relocate, we can now take care of you!

All agents on my team are Bay Area natives serving Contra Costa, Alameda, Solano, and San Joaquin County.

I am very excited to have joined Libby and Ken at Guthrie Group Homes!

3 Small Steps in February That Prevent Big Stress 3 Small Steps in February That Prevent Big Stress in March⁣
⁣
⁣
Spring is just around the corner, and with it comes one of the busiest real estate markets of the year. If you're planning to buy a home this season, the work you do now in February can save you from scrambling when competition heats up in March.⁣
⁣
Here are three smart steps to take this month:⁣
⁣
1. Get Pre-Approved or Pre-Qualified Knowing your purchasing power before you start seriously shopping gives you confidence and credibility. With interest rates still shifting, getting this done early helps you understand your monthly budget and shows sellers you're a serious buyer.⁣
⁣
2. Clarify Your Must-Haves vs. Nice-to-Haves Take time to sit down and define what you absolutely need versus what would simply be a bonus. This clarity will help you move quickly when the right home hits the market and avoid getting distracted by properties that don't truly fit your goals.⁣
⁣
3. Tour a Few Homes Now Even if you're not ready to make an offer, seeing homes in person helps calibrate your expectations. You'll get a better sense of what your budget gets you, what neighborhoods feel right, and how homes compare in real life versus online.⁣
⁣
A little preparation now means less stress and faster decisions when spring arrives.⁣

⁣
A home inspection isn't just a negotiation tool—it's your budget roadmap for the next few years. 🔍⁣
⁣
That report highlighting a 15-year-old water heater or aging roof isn't just leverage for credits at closing. It's a clear signal that you need to budget $8,000-12,000 for likely replacements within your first few years of ownership. That's not a deal-breaker—it's a budget roadmap.⁣
⁣
Major system failures happen at the worst times: an HVAC failure during a heat wave, a burst pipe in winter, or storm damage to the roof. These scenarios happen when it's least convenient and most expensive. HVAC replacement alone runs $5,000-$10,000, and without liquid reserves, a single emergency can derail your finances entirely.⁣
⁣
This is where smart buyers differentiate themselves. They don't treat the inspection as pass/fail. They use it to understand the timeline of major expenses and plan strategically instead of scrambling when systems fail.⁣
⁣
💡 The takeaway: Create a dedicated repair fund before closing. Keep liquid cash reserves after purchase rather than putting every dollar into the down payment. Those who budget with this roadmap in mind avoid buyer's remorse and build equity with confidence.⁣
