"About" Patricia J. Johnson:
I'm Patricia Johnson, Broker and sole proprietor of Really Care Realty.
I began my real estate career in 2001, working as a real estate "agent" for Coldwell Banker. At inception, I planned to own my own brokerage. I sold both residential and commercial properties for Coldwell Banker. In 2005, I passed the California Real Estate Broker's exam, and developed Really Care Realty. I am a mentor in real estate for the National Association of Professional Women (www.napw.com).
Every week, I attend Tour Meetings and Breakfasts to network with other realtors, and view properties as soon as they are introduced to the market! I am a member of SCCAOR Board, MLSListings.com, California Association of Realtors, and National Association of Realtors. I am licensed in the City of Sunnyvale, California. I am a designated Senior Real Estate Specialist. (SRES.com) In June, 2009, I received a congradulatory invitation to become a member of the National Association of Professional Women. (NAPW.com)
