Art was knowledgeable and personable from the beginning and walked me through it all, every step of the way. I texted and emailed Art at all hours of the day, and he was always timely and responsive to my queries and concerns. Having a good realtor is one of the best decisions you can make for yourself. I've heard nightmare stories from friends and coworkers and I consider myself lucky to have found Art! I suggest you look no further! My whole home buying process was smooth and quick, even in times like this where the market is tight. I closed in 17 days and I have to say I wouldn't have been able to do this without Art's guidance and timeliness. He made sure all parties involved stayed on top of their parts so we could get the whole deal settled ASAP. I will recommend Art to EVERYONE and hope to be able to use him for selling/buying of all my future homes. Thank you Art for helping me and my family get settled into our new home!

We are SO grateful that we came across LuAnn's profile! From our very first phone call, she was…read morequick to respond and fully committed to making the timing work perfectly for us. From visits to the house, hosting two open houses, creating amazing marketing materials, and maintaining great communication with interested buyers -- every key component of selling a home was handled with care and professionalism. LuAnn knew we were expecting our first baby, moving into a new home, and trying to sell our current home all at the same time. She helped us navigate every step flawlessly and executed the sale of our house with the ease and confidence of a seasoned professional. We trusted her every step of the way and always knew she was negotiating and advocating behind the scenes to help make this all happen for us. We are incredibly grateful to LuAnn and her entire team -- especially Parveen and Ashlee -- for their outstanding coordination, communication, and genuine care in getting our house closed successfully - all in the span of ONE month!!

We had been hoping to find a condo in the area for some time and knew we needed to work with LuAnn to secure our purchase. LuAnn helped us get our offer accepted, and escrow closed in record time. This was our third transaction working with LuAnn, and over the years she has stayed on top of her game! She is still the most market savvy, sharp and knowledgeable agent in the area, with a bounty of crucial contacts and resources at the ready. I feel that LuAnn's experience and top notch reputation gave us a boost over the other offer the seller was reviewing. Once our offer was accepted, we received clear communication from LuAnn's team for what was to come during the process, a detailed step-by-step review of what we needed to do to have a smooth transaction and close escrow on time. Although we closed escrow over the holidays, and for most people it is a taxing time of the year, LuAnn was so cheerful and hilarious throughout it made it so much less stressful for us! Her positive attitude was infectious and so appreciated. We love working with LuAnn and would recommend her to anyone searching for a home in the Sacramento area.

After viewing numerous properties, we realized that it just didn't make economic sense for us to buy a home at that time. We took a 5-year hiatus, contacted Tim, and started right back on our search to find a home. 3 months later, we moved into our new home. We liked working with him for several reasons: 1. He's NOT pretentious. 2. He knows his S##T ! 3. He is patient and never gave us the feeling that we needed to make a quick decision. 4. He seems to know a lot about rental laws and tenant rights in SF. This is important because not knowing them can cost you tens of thousands of dollars 5. He's an excellent listener.

There's a quality to the way she listens that's hard to describe. It's as if she already knows what you're thinking before you say it. That kind of presence creates immediate trust. Her reputation as a top San Francisco real estate broker for over 25 years is no accident. She doesn't skim the surface. She goes deep into your motivations, your concerns, your emotional relationship with a decision, and uses all of that to give you guidance that actually fits your situation so you make a decision that feels comfortable and without regret. She earns the role of trusted advisor because she works for it with every client. Beyond real estate, I've had the privilege of working with Danielle as my coach. Every single session, I leave with something I can apply to my business, and honestly, to my life. That's rare. If you're looking for someone who will truly see you and guide you well, she's the one.

My wife and I spent 15 years in the East Bay dreaming about moving back to San Francisco, but when…read morewe finally decided to make it happen, we came to the search pretty unfocused. We knew what we wanted (classic SF character, water views, a walkable and vibrant neighborhood) but had no clear sense of where to find it all or how to think about our budget. We needed more than a real estate agent; we needed someone who could help us find the dream itself. Danielle Lazier at Vivre Real Estate became our buyer's agent, and she was exactly that person. She listened carefully, zeroed in quickly on what would feel like home to us, and brought real clarity to how our budget aligned with home values on the ground. She was direct and always available, without ever making us feel rushed. We found a stunning co-op apartment in Russian Hill with breathtaking views. Danielle's strategic pricing advice helped us craft a winning offer, and her expertise navigating the additional complexities of a co-op transaction was invaluable. She connected us with excellent vendors, guided us through contingencies, and kept us calm through closing. If you're a home buyer trying to navigate San Francisco's uniquely complex real estate market, there is no one more qualified to have in your corner. She turned a vague old dream into our actual home, and we couldn't be more grateful.

During our year and a half of searching for…read morea home, Sarah spent hours upon hours with us visiting houses, scrutinizing them closely, guiding us through disclosures, and strategizing on offers. Her generosity with her time and expertise, responsiveness, and communication are second to none. She never pushed us and checked in consistently about what we felt comfortable with, and when we agonized over decisions or chose not to offer, she was always unbelievably patient and supportive. She jumped on multiple last minute offers for us with total grace and professionalism. Her structural knowledge and expertise was the most amazing asset and she built deep trust by giving it to us straight when a house's issues were profound and concerning. She proved time and time again to us that she was genuinely invested in helping us find the right home, whatever it took, telling us multiple times she was in it with us for the long haul. We had life conversations in the crawl space under houses, experienced the worst attic she had ever been in, and frankly just enjoyed hanging out with her as a great human. She is not afraid to get her hands dirty, and goes so far above and beyond for her clients, it's astounding. When we finally found a home, it was one she sent us which we had overlooked but because of her network and relationships, we were able to jump on an opportunity quickly and make a winning offer. Thanks to her we had exact clarity on the work needed and expected costs. And she continued to support us through escrow and after closing, answering every question, strategizing about repairs, and sharing her invaluable list of trusted local contacts, smoothing the way at every stage. She is deeply embedded in the East Bay real estate community which is critical in such a tough and small market - relationships really matter. We also got to work with her daughter Ellie a few times, who is just as wonderful. They are truly the dream team. We are so grateful to work with and know Sarah, and cannot recommend her highly enough.
