If you want an agent that has extensive expertise, is incredibly responsive, a skilled negotiator,…read moregenuinely thoughtful and kind, trustworthy, and will exceed any and all expectations that you could have for a realtor, that is Don Askey. Over the years, I have been asked to write reviews. On occasion, I have intended to, but often times never got a chance. Don has never asked for a review. Ever. But I felt compelled to write this -- my first review of any business on any site -- because of the high quality and impressive services that Don provided. My husband and I feel so blessed to have had Don as our realtor. We have bragged about him quite often to our family and our friends. He always had our best interest at the forefront, worked tirelessly and without complaint, and remained positive. He educated us about a housing market with which we were unfamiliar with patience and kindness. His professionalism never wavered, and he balances it with a very natural, humorous, and kind demeanor that made Don instantly feel like family. Don Askey is truly the best realtor that someone could ask for. Thank you, Don.

We met John when we contacted him regarding a piece of property that he was showing, which wasn't a…read moregreat fit for our family. John did a great job of asking us about what we were interested in, learning about our family, and trying to understand what would be a good fit for us. He showed us a few houses and we made an offer on one of the first few that we saw, but unfortunately, we were outbid and pretty bummed. John coached us through the process and helped us remain positive. He ended up finding an even better home for us, which turned out to be our dream home. John not only helped us land our dream home, but he also helped us sell the house that we were living in. John understood that we were pretty anxious about owning two homes with two mortgages, so he gave us some great advice to prepare the house to fetch top-dollar. We had a strong open house and received 5 offers all over asking the first weekend that we listed the house. John guided us through the offers and ultimately helped us choose which one made the most sense for us to move forward with. We had a wonderful experience working with John, he's a great communicator, a good person, and a very funny guy. He went above and beyond every step of the way, so we feel very fortunate to have met him, and look forward to working with him again one day!

I bought and sold 3 properties in Marin prior to being introduced by a close friend to John, so I…read morecan say with experience that John is SO much more than a typical realtor. John helped me sell my home following a divorce. He recommended the work that should be done, and what work would not add value. He had contacts for all the projects/inspections and helped stage the house so we were able to get the property on the market quickly and truly sell for top dollar. He then quickly pivoted and navigated a tricky purchase with a remote owner, tenants in the property, and a non-local realtor. He negotiated a fantastic price and connected me with the best mortgage partner!! Again he had all the people needed for the fixes before we moved in. John was so fantastic he just helped my ex buy his house!! John knows how important my kids are and was dedicated to getting them the best place to live while spending time with their dad! (John is fantastic with kids, they can be opinionated customers)!!! I highly recommend John to anyone looking to buy or sell their home in Marin!

Adam did an amazing job selling my loft in SOMA!…read more I remembered seeing some of Adam's properties that he was selling back when I was looking to buy a loft and remembered his listings all looked beautifully staged and ready to sell. I also remembered that those properties sold pretty quickly. When it came time to sell my place it was a no brainer on who to contact. I live in Southern California and was concerned with getting my rental property in SF presentable while also timing it well with the real estate market. From the moment I called Adam, he hit the ground running getting my place move in ready and listed. He took care of EVERYTHING from start to finish ie. putting me in touch with the right people to replace the floors/carpet, finding a reliable and extremely reasonable handyman to get the place ready, staging the place, helping me coordinate with my rental tenant...etc. He literally removed all the stress from selling my place and made the process quick and easy. I was also 8 months pregnant while selling my place so I did not want any added stress Adam priced the property well since it sold within 14 days and i was extremely happy with what we got for it. I have worked/or tried to work with other real estate agents in the past and they were flakey and unreliable. Adam was like striking gold in terms of finding a good real estate agent. He is reliable, efficient, resourceful, has a solid work ethic and was a wonderful person all around to work with. I would highly recommend him!

If you like precision look no further and contact Adam. He exceeded expectations on the sale of our "historic loft" in South Beach and made the process stress free. He did an excellent job marketing the property to turn online browsers into buyers within 17 days and a full listing price offer. Every single detail was covered ahead of time, his marketing campaign is extraordinary, he invested on state of the art online advertisement, with excellent photographs, Blu Sky films/video, and Real Vision interactive tour which propagated to a bunch of websites e.g. property websites, Google, Facebook, email, mobile, laptop and newspaper ads, etc. We are very methodical and needless to say Adam provided opportunities for us to consider different hi-rise condos in South Beach. He has excellent listening and writing skills to that enable him to deliver a superb outcome. Now, I finally feel I'm at home, spectacular view of the water, Bay Bridge and view of the city from every room; the light is magnificent with the abundance of floor to ceiling windows. There is only one Realtor in SF, Adam Gavzer, who possesses the timely communication, management skills and flawless execution needed to make the most discerning "seller and buyer" glad that they are working with him.

Adam helped us buy our first house earlier this year. He is incredibly knowledgeable, professional,…read moreand personable. As first-time buyers, we had a lot of questions (about the process and about owning property in general), and we never felt judged or like we were a nuisance. We started looking before the pandemic, so it ended up taking over a year for us to find the right home. Adam was patient while we navigated a highly-competitive and inconsistent market. He never tried to influence us on any one property and was genuinely interested in learning about our lifestyle so he could help us find exactly what would be right for us, even if that meant we saw quite a few homes without making an offer. After getting outbid on the first try, we finally got our offer accepted on the perfect place. Adam helped us make our offer competitive and was able to get the selling agent to adjust the offer date so we would have time to make an offer on another property if it fell through. From there, we had a series of frustrating challenges trying to close. Adam struck the perfect balance of keeping us level-headed and focused while still validating our frustration. He proactively communicated with us, made phone calls with our lender and the selling agent, and was unafraid to push back against some of the absurdities we ran into. Adam was by our side the whole way though, even after we had the keys in our hands. We love our new home and we're certain that many agents wouldn't have been able to pull it off. We were very lucky to have Adam!
