Allan Eu

Allan has been with the Richards Realty over 2 years.  Allan specializes in Bank Foreclosures (R.E.O.'s) and has sold 20 so far in 2009 with Richards Realty.  Bank REPO sales require considerable work on the part of the realtor which entails dedicated attention to the care, protection and restoration of the property as well as attention to need and desires of the buyers.  Most of these properties are in the Pittsburg, Antioch, Brentwood corridor but as far north as Isleton and Rio Vista and West to Oakland, Fremont and Hayward.
