I am honored to provide my highest recommendation for David Ayerdi of Sotheby's International…read moreRealty for his exceptional representation in the successful sale of two of my San Francisco properties: a four-unit apartment building and a separate personal residence. From the outset, David demonstrated the level of professionalism, discretion, and strategic insight that one expects from a top-tier real estate advisor. Selling two very different properties required a nuanced understanding of both the investment and luxury residential markets in San Francisco, and David handled each transaction with remarkable expertise. In marketing the four-unit apartment building, David skillfully positioned the property to attract qualified investors by presenting its financial performance, long-term potential, and market value with clarity and sophistication. His pricing strategy and negotiation skills were outstanding, ultimately securing a strong sale price while navigating the complexities that often accompany multi-unit transactions. The sale of my personal residence required a more curated and lifestyle-focused approach, and David delivered an elegant and thoughtful marketing strategy that highlighted the home's unique character and appeal. His ability to identify serious buyers, manage negotiations effectively, and maintain momentum through closing resulted in an excellent outcome. What truly distinguishes David is his unwavering commitment to client service. Every aspect of the process--from preparation and marketing to negotiations and closing--was handled with meticulous attention to detail. Just as important, David conducted both transactions with complete discretion and professionalism, which was especially important to me. I trusted him implicitly to represent my interests, protect confidential information, and guide the process with integrity. David's combination of market expertise, negotiation skill, and white-glove client service places him among the finest real estate professionals in San Francisco. I am deeply appreciative of his work and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone seeking a knowledgeable, trustworthy, and highly capable real estate advisor.

I can not say enough about David Ayerdi as a realtor and a genuine person. His expertise paired…read morewith his care and concern create an effective real estate professional well versed in the ins and outs of the San Francisco market. I recommend David especially for anyone seeking an expert in rental property sales in San Francisco. His deep understanding of the local market is truly impressive, particularly his comprehensive knowledge of San Francisco's complex tenant laws. This expertise proved invaluable in navigating the intricacies of our recent transaction. My unit being a rental unit with a tenant in place was a complex deal with a lot of moving parts. I was fortunate to have a cooperative tenant with a realtor who was a great communicator to move the deal forward. Beyond his market acumen, David exhibits exceptional attention to detail. Every document was meticulously reviewed, and no stone was left unturned, ensuring a transaction that closed on time. There were bumps in the road getting documents from the HOA. David was relentless to get the document for the buyers review. He kept me consistently updated at every stage, proactively addressing any questions and concerns with clarity and promptness. His network of buyers and agents is extensive. My sale was an off market pocket listing. David has the team and ability to make renovations, but in my listing we went through the numbers and felt that it made more sense to put it on the market with the tenant in the unit. David brought me good offers and the ultimate sales price was exactly what we targeted. I only had 3 days with the unit unoccupied adding to my profits as a landlord owner. My net profits were excellent and well worth the agent commissions. If you are looking for a realtor who is knowledgeable, detail-oriented, a strong communicator, and dedicated to seeing things through, I wholeheartedly recommend David Ayerdi.

A resident overheard my conversation and asked me if I had a realtor. I told her I didn't. She said she didn't want to impose but knows a realtor who both sold her a condo and helped her purchase another one. She gave me the name Drew Plaisted. She said he specializes in the Rossmoor community. I generally don't take a strangers suggestion without doing some research first. All my research led me to realize that he was certainly worthy of me meeting with him. My wife and I met with him at my Mothers condo. It was readily apparent that he was knowledgeable about the market, the Rossmoor community and my mother's specific floor plan. More than just the business end of our meeting we saw that he was genuine, personable and deeply committed to helping us when we really needed someone. Drew gave us suggestions to improve the condos marketability. We hired the contractors that he suggested and came to realize that they too had pride in how they did their jobs. The condo recently closed. I know that there are a lot of moving parts in a real estate transaction and was prepared for some hiccups. I must say there were ZERO problems and the whole process was seamless. I HIGHLY recommend Drew! My entire family cannot thank him enough for the care that he showed us during these difficult times.
