About
A Different Lens on
Real Estate.
Engineering taught me to analyze. An MBA taught me to evaluate decisions in context. Mortgage experience helps me understand the financing behind a transaction. Investing keeps me focused on value, risk, and the long term.
Real estate brings all four together.
Markets change. Properties differ. The right decision depends on understanding what the numbers mean, and what they don't.
I am Prasanna Rangaswamy, a California real estate advisor with Arcus Homes, CalDRE #01974788 | NMLS #1314117, based in Fremont and serving the San Francisco Bay Area. With 10+ years in the field, I work with buyers, sellers, and investors who need perspective as much as they need representation.
