Our Team

Sacramento Metro 1% Listing Fee

Your Advantage Realty has become one the most established and highly reviewed independent 1% listing fee brokerages serving the entire Sacramento Metro region. Our success is not accidental—it’s built on a tight, experienced team that has worked together for over a decade.

At the core of our operation are:

Steve Lederman, Listing Agent-Broker-Owner
 Jack Placidio, Realtor, Operations Manager with over 20 years of real estate experience
 Kele Barragan, Realtor, Transaction Coordinator with over 17 years of experience managing disclosures and timelines

Together, we bring more than 50 years of combined, hands-on real estate expertise to every home we list.

The Advantage of a Well-Oiled Team

Experience matters—but how that experience is organized matters even more.

We’ve built a proven system with clearly defined roles that creates a seamless experience for our clients. Every aspect of your home sale is handled with precision:

  • When Steve is meeting with clients, Jack is available to respond quickly to questions
  • When paperwork or timelines are in motion, Kele ensures everything stays on track
  • Communication flows continuously—there are no gaps, no delays, and no dropped balls

The result is a level of consistency and professionalism that’s hard to replicate.

Not Too Big. Not Too Small. Just Right.

We’re intentionally structured as a boutique brokerage—nimble, responsive, and free from corporate layers that slow things down.

That means:

  • Faster decisions
  • Direct communication
  • Accountability at every step

You’re not handed off to a revolving door of agents—you work with a dedicated, experienced team that knows your transaction inside and out.

One More Thing — The Team Dynamic Behind Better Results

After more than 10 years as a team, something else has developed that clients can feel right away: trust and respect.

We genuinely enjoy working together, and that camaraderie shows up in how we support each other and serve our clients. When one team member needs backup, another steps in immediately. There’s no ego—just a shared commitment to getting the job done right.

The Bottom Line

For you as the home seller, this means:

  • A smoother, less stressful process
  • Strong communication from start to finish
  • Maximum exposure and negotiation strength
  • Top-dollar results with maximum net proceeds

That’s the Your Advantage Realty way.
