We had a really great experience working with Mike to sell our condo. Because he lived in our building, we had already gotten to know him as a fellow resident, so there was already a strong sense of trust and familiarity going into the process. Mike was incredibly responsive, communicative, and helpful from start to finish. He provided thoughtful guidance throughout the sale and made what could have been a stressful process feel much smoother and more straightforward. We especially appreciated his knowledge, professionalism, and how easy he was to work with. One thing we really valued was how balanced and respectful he was in his approach - he would clearly walk us through the facts of each offer and ask for our thoughts before sharing his perspective, which helped us feel informed and confident without ever feeling pressured. We'd definitely recommend him! read more

Mike is a fantastic agent that I have worked with for over 10 years. Specifically I have worked with him in 855 Folsom Street building, in which he has an extensive amount of knowledge. Mike is easy to talk to, down to earth, and very knowledgeable about the real estate market in San Francisco. Highly recommend! read more

Mike was an amazing agent. We missed the boat on selling before COVID, but he was still able to find interested buyers and renters before we finally decided to rent out our property. Immediately, Mike found the perfect tenant who always paid on time and treated the property like his own -- tastefully furnished and professionally cleaned. When the opportunity came to sell again, Mike gave us all the options and empowered us to make the right decision. Mike was always very positive and somehow knew how to smooth out stressful situations when we were really mulling over stagers, pricing, timing, etc. He was always easy to communicate with and was never condescending, unlike some agents we had worked with before. Mike was was super proactive in setting up showings and had offers lined up. Since we have small kids, we couldn't help but to be similar to out of state landlords/sellers, even though we are just across the Bay Bridge. Mike was super patient even with the kids interrupting our conference calls. He went above and beyond to help us out with our tenant and later on finding the perfect buyer. We couldn't have done it without him. Plus he got us multiple offers above asking. If you're thinking of buying or selling, go with Mike -- unlike newbie agents, he has a ton of experience and will know how to leverage a great deal for you. read more

Without a doubt, the best experience my partner and I have ever had leasing an apartment. Ever. We cannot recommend Mike enough, he's kind, responsive, friendly and professional. We felt welcomed by him even before we signed, and could feel how appreciated he was by all the other residents that would say hello to chat with him as we toured the building. He's wonderful, go see him and you'll be in good hands! read more

Mike is the best agent we've ever worked with! Mike was hyper-communicative, empathetic, efficient, and used his decades of experience to help make what could have been a cumbersome and lengthy process completely stress free for us. We can't recommend him enough! read more

One of the best agents I've worked with. Mike is extremely knowledgeable, kind, and accommodating for my urgent moving request. He is definitely a trusted partner in my house hunting process rather than merely a real estate agent (even though he is a great agent!) read more

So rude. We had an appointment with him. But he didn't show up. We messaged him twice, called him twice. Never replied. We waited half an hour but nothing from him. So we left. Apparently he was with other client. I don't really understand why he cannot message us he will be late? And even after that, he messaged me saying 〝it was nice meeting you today !" ... apparently he messed up with other clients. He is not professional at all. He does not know how to respect his client. I would definitely not recommend him at all. read more

Mike is the top real estate professional I've worked with in San Francisco. Had the chance to work with him over the last few years and always was very responsive and provided me great options for what I was looking for. Will always keep him in mind when I plan to sell or buy any property. In addition to his work he's a funny and great guy overall and that makes a difference when things are stressful. read more

Mike helped me sell my loft in San Francisco at the beginning of 2016 and I can't say enough good things about him. Having worked with 4 different real estate agents in the city in the past he really went above and beyond to take care of me as a seller. He met with me and listened to what I wanted to get out of the sale and understood that I had a compressed timeline with a pending move to Hawaii. He set expectations high and then went on to exceed them. He had a sound strategy for getting the best price for my property. I was a little uncomfortable with the strategy (personally would have preferred to be more conservative) but in the end he got me 20 percent over asking and an all cash offer, so no complaints here. He was patient with my nerves and his organization and extreme attention to details kept everyone including the buyer and his agent on schedule and continued to push the deal forward. I would whole heartedly recommend Mike to anyone looking to sell or buy a place in San Francisco. I think you'd be hard pressed to find a better agent to fight for you in SF. read more

Spent an entire weekend looking at over 30 apartments and Mike was by far the most genuine and down-to-earth Realtor I met with. He took his time showing me several units, including his own personal place so I could better get an idea of what a place might look like furnished. He also didn't make me feel rushed while touring and made sure every question I had was answered. I emailed Mike on a Saturday afternoon and he replied almost immediately and was very flexible in setting up a time to meet. After the viewing he was quick to follow up and even passed on some other local information to me unsolicited. Mike was very friendly and a pleasure to spend time with. Felt more like hanging out with a friend and chatting than a formal apartment tour - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. read more

My wife and I rented a unit through Mike from out of state as I was moving to San Francisco. He took advantage of our situation (being from out of town) and rented us a unit that didn't match the pictures online. The unit was dirty when we arrived and we soon learned that we were paying more rent than other similar units in the building. When renewal time came around, the market was at a peak, and he increased the rent while telling us we were getting such a good deal. We were very busy with our lives at the time and didn't have time for a move, so we were pretty much stuck and reluctantly signed another lease. Again, Mike took advantage of our situation. We talked to others in the building and learned that no one else was paying near what we were in rent. Fine, we signed a lease and we dealt with it. Finally, this year we have the time to move and our lease is ending, so we tried to negotiate a lower rate based on the lower rate seen in the neighborhood and across the city. Mike refused to budge, and again tried to make us think we were getting a good deal. Meanwhile other units in the building were getting rented for about $300 less per month. We even tried to rent them, but we were too early (we have to give 30 days notice to end our lease) and couldn't afford renting 2 apartments for a month. We've found a new place at this point, but I want to warn others not to be fooled by his fake smile and fake friendly attitude. Also, know you are paying a premium dealing with this guy as a buyer/renter. I understand he works for the owner and is trying to get them the best deal, which is fine. What is not fine is lying to the buyer/renter and pretending to be your friend the whole time while taking advantage of you in any way he can. read more

I've known Mike a couple years now. Met him as the seller's agent when I was buying my SOMA loft. The first impression I had of him was a guy with integrity. What he promises he always follows through on and this was as the seller's agent so I can only imagine how much better it would be if you were his client. All around a really great and funny guy. Even my dog loves him and she's a pretty good judge of character ;) read more

Mike is the best, hands down. This guy is incredible. He explained everything to us and incredibly patient with our questions and concerns. He helped us with buying and I can't imagine not having him when buying/selling. He knows his stuff inside and out! A true professional!! Not only he is super fast, smart, and diligent, but he is also nice and funny! Give him a call and you can thank me later! :) read more

I worked with Mike to buy a place in Feb-Mar 2012. Mike is incredibly knowledgeable about the SOMA real estate market, and guided me through the process showing me not just what was on the market, but recently sold properties, so I could get a feel for what types of properties were selling for how much money. I had my heart set on a modern condo loft, but when I through him a curve ball and fell in love with at single-family live/work building, he smiled and guided me through the purchase process expertly. Mike knows a lot of people who help out with the process, from inspectors, to mortgage brokers, to laborers to do work on the place after move-in. If you are buying or selling in SOMA, use Mike! read more

Mike did an awesome job selling my condo! 1) He was available to show on a moments notice 2) He went above and beyond by guiding a disorganized buyer and her realtor through the process!! 3) Knows the ins-and-outs of selling a BMR 4) Super positive guy and has a great sense of humor!! read more

We purchased our first home from Mike in SoMa San Francisco and the experience has never been better and easier.   As a listing agent, he is not pushy and he is always available for us when we needed him. He responded to our texts and emails in less than 15 minutes.  Mike is really layback and honest. He always speaks his mind and he tells us what he doesn't like about the units that he is showing, leaving it up to us to decide if we like it. In my opinion, his attitude of selling/buying homes makes him the best real estate agent/broker. We highly recommend him and will work with him again in the future. read more

Mike helped me find a great loft really quickly. Really nice guy too.

Mike was the selling agent for a condo we recently purchased. I set out to rent it myself but was pleasantly surprised with all the unsolicited help Mike gave me along the way! Mike is truly top notch. He goes above and beyond what is asked of him and really makes you feel secure in what is normally a daunting task. He is warm, personable, optimistic but realistic, and puts a lot of work into making you feel taken care of. Mike is a keeper. Rest assured you're in good hands. He will go the extra mile for you. If he is available to work with you, jump at the opportunity and don't look back. read more

Mike is a true find as a Realtor. He managed to sell my loft in this real estate market - amazing! He was always available, answered all my questions and if he did not know, he found out quickly. He has a great set of contacts to help out with everything from painting and cleaning to finding a mortgage. Thanks Mike, your the best! read more

It was a pleasure working with Mike. He's incredibly responsive - over email and even SMS - and has a great understanding of the market. His personality also makes going through the whole real estate jazz a whole lot less stressful. You always know you can speak openly with him and he'll do the same in return. Would love to work with him again! read more

Mike is an awesome Real Estate Broker!! When I first started in the business, he was kind enough to show me the ropes - even though I wasn't one of his agents! That just goes to show what type of a person he is - super kind, extremely likable, and generous with his time. As time passed, I would watch him do multiple transactions, and I discovered that he was not only a genuinely great guy, he was a top notch agent! He always educated his clients, he always took the time to make sure the transactions went smooth and always made his clients feel important! He's one of those rare agents - super knowledgable and attentive, with a laid back personality through it all but gets the job done! read more

Really nice guy. Sincere. Will go the distance to help you find a new place. Also a boon of helpful information. Really makes you feel like your business matters. read more

I have worked with many agents before, either as a owner or a tenant and I have to say Mike is the most reliable one I have encountered so far. He not only represents the best interest of his clients and ensuring that the landlord is well protected financially, but also takes charges to make sure that the tenant lives in a comfortable environment. The experience of working with him is very pleasant because he is extremely responsive and resourceful. You know you can count on him and it is the characteristics i highly value when the need occurs to invest in real estate. read more

Michael Broermann was very helpful in helping me find an apartment. He was ultra responsive, really nice and gave tips about the area. I really enjoyed my experience with him and would highly recommend working with him. And would definitely work with him again. read more

Mike has been my realtor twice. Once when I bought my place and the other time when I sold it. 855 Folsom Street # 342. I bought the loft through the mayor's first time home buyers program of San Francisco county and Mike was there all the way walking me through the purchase and the selling. This program is very complicated and Mike worked diligently with me to make sure all the i's were dotted and the t's crossed. Several times I wanted to just throw up my hands and give up. But Mike was always there to keep me from falling down the rabbit. I highly recommend him for your real estate needs. read more

When Mike and I have worked together I can always count on being able to speak with him when I need, knowing that he will help me with any issues I may have and all with a smile. He was very helpful in facilitating a difficult appraisal. I look forward to working with Mike again! read more

I have known Mike for over 9 years. He handles ALL of my real estate transactions (purchase and sales). He also handles ALL of my rentals, so I never have to worry about anything as he takes care of it for me. He is very conscientious, considerate and helpful. He really cares and goes the extra distance! I would highly recommend him withOUT reservation. read more

Mike is a very knowledgeable and helpful realtor who makes the process of finding a rental property a great experience.

Mike is a great agent. He hooked me up with a great loft in SOMA. The process was extremely smooth, and he's super friendly.

Mike is one of the most genuine people you'll ever meet! His value for fairness and integrity is apparent in all that he does. He genuinely cares and has a strong passion for helping people meet their goals, whether it's something he can do personally or by simply making the connections with someone who can. Supportive and efficient, he gets the job done with seamless effort. He's also passionate about getting to know those he works with, better understanding exactly what you want and how to get you there. Consequently, this results in a lot of his clients maintaining a strong and loyal relationship with him even after the work is done, you'll see this immediately, just take a walk with him for 5 minutes around town! His care, generosity of his time and resources, and love for connecting with people are what make him a great real estate agent. Not to mention, his sense of humor and lighthearted demeanor can get anyone through the most stressful of situations with ease and even a bit of laughter. =) Highly recommend working with Mike! read more

There is no other realtor anywhere like Mike Broermann. He's simply that good at what he does. On top of that he's friendly and fun!

Met Mike through a friend's referral. Mike has been truly amazing in advising us in a sticky situation with the developer we are looking to buy a unit from. He accurately assessed the situation, gave great advice on what to do, discretely exerted his influence in the industry to our benefit, and answered our distressed messages all the way to mid-night constantly. And most importantly, he has great humor!!! One cannot ask for more in a RE agent who takes excellent care of his clients. Mike is your man, especially if you are someone like me who is OCD and wants to stay on top of things at all times. read more

Mike is the best of the best when it comes to buying a home in the bay area. He knows what he's talking about, is easy to work with and just aggressive enough to get the job done without being overbearing. Mike has represented us on both sides, selling and buying in SF and we couldn't be more satisfied with his work. His dedication, work ethic and continuous drive to make sure you as his client are happy definitely sets him apart and I would recommend him in a heartbeat. Martin & Aliyah read more

We will contact you in the future if buying in SF becomes an option for us.... there are not many nice real state agents like you. Cheers read more

Met Mike through a friend who highly recommended him. Mike helped me get through a delicate housing situation with a former partner. He listened and his friendly demeanor is what made my situation bearable. Mike provided a wealth of information and whatever he didn't have an answer for, he had no problem asking his contacts. This is going above and beyond. Mike helped me search for a rental unit at YBL. He helped me through each step and explained how the process goes, from the renter's side as well as the landlord. Mike is a guy with integrity. He provided several scenarios so that I saw the overall picture in helping making my decision. It did not work out there but it was not because from the lack of effort from Mike, sometimes owners are set in what they want and will not budge. That is not a reflection on Mike. I will also highly recommend Mike and will keep him in mind for my future housing endeavors. read more

I just spent a year at YBL and Mike has been useful, friendly, available all the time. He answered email even while traveling (sorry, i dont expect people to answer the phone on vacation). Fixed everything in the apartment without ever asking me to pay for it. He even tried to help with a very difficult neighbor. The relationship has been built on trust. Very hard for me to believe the negative reviews! read more

I am moving into the Yerba Buena Lofts in a weeks time and Mike has been an absolute professional and extremely helpful from start to signing. Full service, responsive and also helped me buy some cool pieces of furniture from the current owner. Having homes in three countries I can say that Mike and his team have made this the easiest of processes and got me an amazing loft at YBL. read more
