Winning the “Unicorn” Home in Alamo Heights: A Year-Long Search With San Antonio’s Best Realtors
When buyers want a home in Alamo Heights (78209)—one of San Antonio’s most competitive and desirable neighborhoods—they turn to trusted experts. Caroline Decherd and Susanne Marco are widely regarded as top Realtors in Alamo Heights because they combine deep hyper-local knowledge with a commitment to exceptional service.
The journey to 444 Geneseo demonstrates why their market awareness and persistence set them apart.
A Patient, Strategic Home Search
Our clients spent a full year searching for what they called “the unicorn”—the rare home combining:
• Beautiful design
• Impeccable construction
• Move-in ready quality
• A floor plan suited for both cooking and creative work
• Walkable, central Alamo Heights location
Caroline and Susanne guided them through dozens of showings, always refining the search and educating the clients about micro-market dynamics in 78209.
Finally, the perfect property appeared.
The Setback—and the Opportunity
When the listing hit the market, our clients were out of town. The home went under contract almost instantly—a typical scenario in Alamo Heights.
But Caroline and Susanne didn’t let the opportunity go.
They monitored the listing closely and spotted a critical update: the contract had fallen through.
Within minutes, they arranged a FaceTime showing, scheduled an in-person tour for when the clients returned, and prepared a competitive offer.
The Winning Strategy
The offer reflected:
• A compelling price position
• Strong supporting terms
• Clear alignment with seller priorities
• Professional presentation that inspired confidence
It was accepted.
A Tri-Cities Success Story
This case demonstrates exactly why Park Properties Group is repeatedly ranked among the best Realtors in San Antonio and the Tri-Cities and why their clients trust them to navigate even the most complex and fast-moving markets.
Caroline and Susanne do not wait for opportunity—they anticipate it.
