About
Before Silicon Valley was duly named, its history as the hotbed of innovation was well noted. Our catchy moniker reflects the giants of technology who line the corridors of Cupertino, Mountain View, Menlo Park, Palo Alto, and Sunnyvale; the wave of progressive firms that have shaped electronics, e-commerce and social interaction all call this place home.

In its truest form, innovation knows no boundaries. It isn’t contained by market or economic trends. Silicon Valley is where everyone gathers at the water cooler of progress, questioning why things can’t be better.

It’s from that fountain that the founders of Intero drank.

It was 2002. Silicon Valley was mired in the dot-com bust affecting all corners of the technology sector. As a result the local real estate market grinded to a halt. In true Silicon Valley spirit, that was the exact, perfect moment to launch a startup real estate brokerage.

Intero’s desire wasn’t to be like all other brokerages. Not only were we committed to providing our residents and neighbors a service that heralded the very nature of where we live, we owed it to our new neighbors, recruited from all over the world to come and work for many of the most creative, progressive companies on the planet.

Powered by an entirely new technology platform, backed by a solid investment, led by a team of real estate veterans who were all born, raised, and weaned right here in the Silicon Valley, Intero Real Estate Services was born.

While the dot-com bust remedied, in 2007, the real estate bubble burst and its subsequent effects on the market and economy were well documented. For us, this signaled a moment in time to do what we do best - invest in our company and innovate further.

Over the past seven years, against the pressures of a challenging market, we continued to advance our training programs, update all of our technology, grow our brand into other markets, and build a luxury sub brand.

We did all this because this is who we are.

In 2014,

Feb 12, 2025
As first-time homebuyers, we had a lot of questions and concerns, and the house we were trying to buy was quite far from where she lived. There were times when it wasn’t even necessary for her to visit the property, but she made the effort to come every time, just to see things with her own eyes and make sure everything was in order. She was incredibly patient with us, who tends to ask a lot of questions, and made sure every detail was covered. Her dedication and attention to detail made what could have been a stressful experience so much easier.
Thanks to her help, we were able to buy a home we truly love. We’re so grateful for all her hard work and dedication. Thank you, Minseo!

Maulik Shah recommends Atul Shah
Home Seller Feb 1, 2025
Atul and Shrenik were fantastic at selling my townhome in San Francisco. It was an extremely challenging sale: downtown still recovering from pandemic, high interest rates, vertical property with many stairs that limits the buyer pool. But Atul and Shrenik were relentless in their advertising efforts, holding open homes, virtual staging, professional photography, etc. When we finally got an offer, Atul was a tough negotiator, ensuring I got my asking price and other favorable terms. We were able to close in 10 days because he went over every document multiple times to ensure everything was in order.
The level of effort here was incredible, and I'm grateful for their help!

Working with Pia and the Pia De Castro team has been a tremendous pleasure in getting my family’s house sold. Pia was a consummate professional and went above and beyond making sure our seller’s experience was smooth and understanding the process of getting our home sold. Whenever we had questions or needed clarification on items, Pia was available to address our concerns and answer our questions. Although there were some challenging moments, Pia and her team stepped up and showed how much they value customer service and taking care of their clients. For example, while readying our home to be put on the market, Pia showed up and helped us move furniture and applied her expertise in creating a homey vibe and feel with set design. She has quite an eye for detail and always making sure all the I’s are dotted and T’s crossed. After working with Pia and her team, I’m confident in referring her to family and friends looking to buy or sell their homes. Pia is an amazing realtor and an even better person. If you want to work with someone with integrity and has your genuine interest at heart, go with Pia and her team.

Cathy Tolman and Robert Parker recommend Terrie MacDonald
Retired Jan 8, 2025
Terrie MacDonald is a realtor extraordinaire. She has now handled two sales and one purchase for us and the services she provides are unrivaled. She was able to negotiate a contingency deal successfully so that we were able to buy the home of our dreams while negotiating a quick sale (48 hours) of one of our homes to make the purchase possible.

For the second sale, she took care of helping us sell/donate the leftover items and make the necessary repairs to make the home turnkey and 100% attractive to buyers. She handled staging and even arranged for a neighborhood gathering prior to the home hitting the market so that we could say goodbye to wonderful neighbors.

We cannot say enough about Terrie. She loves what she does, knows the neighborhood, and knows how to close the deal. Simply put, we trust her knowledge, her judgment, and her integrity.

We are so glad that we were able to purchase our first home with Minseo. She worked so hard to get things done on time, be at every open house with us, checked things from a client’s point of view, clearly explained millions of our questions. Our daily basis check-ins and follow-ups. I appreciated it very much.

Best Real Estate Agent Ever!

Minseo is a dedicated agent that was always available and sending us new listings to look at. We have worked with other agents where we sent the listings to review and felt like we were put aside for richer clients. Minseo gave us her full attention and always stayed in close communication with us. She worked hard, taking the initiative to contact agents, and immediately sending all the information we needed. She even looked at past listings that looked like they failed to sell and knocked on their doors to let them know she had interested buyers! She respected and stuck to the budget we had, but also gave realistic feedback in the different communities we were interested in. When we were getting discouraged, she supported us with her positive advice and outlook, and never gave up. She never pressured us into a decision, making sure that we really made a well-informed decision we were comfortable with, since this was the biggest purchase of our life! She took on detailed coordination and communication with the sellers and our lender, and minimized the stress of escrow for us so that we could have a smooth closing. Minseo is amazing! When you sign up as her client, she is fully committed to finding you the home you’ll love, no matter what the obstacles!

Over the past year, working alongside Cara has been an absolute privilege. As someone who values integrity, professionalism, and genuine care, I’ve been fortunate to have a manager who embodies all these traits and more. Cara has been an unwavering pillar of support, always offering insightful guidance and encouragement when I needed it most in and outside of real estate.

What stands out the most is how Cara goes above and beyond the typical role of a manager. Cara did not hesitate to check in, offering listening ear and helpful advice when life outside real estate gets rough. Furthermore, She creates an environment where learning from mistakes is encouraged, and victories, big or small, are celebrated. I am particularly grateful for how Cara fostered my growth, both professionally and personally, pushing me to aim higher while remaining authentic in my approach.

Thank you, Cara, for being more than just a manager—for being a mentor, a confidant, and an unwavering source of inspiration. Here’s to many more successful years ahead under your guidance.

Oct 15, 2024
We had an outstanding experience working with Jayanta as our buyer agent. As first-time homebuyers, we were initially overwhelmed by the process, but Jayanta’s expertise made everything so much easier. His deep experience and ability to explain every step in detail gave us the confidence we needed to make informed decisions. He took the time to guide us through how to evaluate homes carefully, paying special attention to key factors like the neighborhood and school district, which were important to us.

What truly sets Jayanta apart is his genuine commitment to helping us find the right home, not just any home. He wasn’t in it for a quick sale; instead, he patiently walked us through the entire process, training us on what to look for in a home and how to eliminate properties that didn’t align with our needs. He was always available to answer questions and provide guidance, and his responsiveness was exceptional—whether it was late in the evening or over the weekend, we could count on him.

Even after we closed on the house, Jayanta continued to offer help and support, showing us that his dedication didn’t end with the sale. His follow-up and willingness to go above and beyond made the entire experience less stressful and more enjoyable. For anyone looking for a knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely caring real estate professional, we would highly recommend Jayanta without hesitation!

He is definitely more than a realtor to us. He understood and respected our need and priorities from day one. We would really appreciate the way he updated and guided us in all aspects of home buying process from the scratch. For each property we visited, he had explained all pros-cons and scopes of future scalability. This, in particular, made us to take informed decision. It was a truly a life time experience working with him.

Pia is a consumate professional. Even working outside of her usual geography she managed to get us to see all the properties we asked for as well as a few additional. When we decided to move forward, she managed the offer and contract issues magnificently, as well as handling all the inspections. With both buyer (us) and seller being "difficult" in various ways, Pia pulled everything through all roadblocks, and we got our new home!
