Janice Lee - Highly Recommended Realtor This is my first…read moretime writing a review about a realtor -- or anyone, really. I worked with Janice Lee and had a great experience. She's professional, calm, and never pushy. Janice offers thoughtful suggestions and knows how to negotiate effectively without any pressure.

She'll give clear advice, encourage you to visit open houses on your own, and once you find something you like, she'll step in and do her best to make it happen. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, honest, and experienced realtor who truly looks out for your best interests. -- Leung

Samantha and her team for the job done for us!…read more Before any referrals, by chance we met Samantha at an open house while we were in our window shopping phase. We were impressed with her approachability and professionalism. It crossed our mind to work with her as our exclusive buying agent then. Later, we found out several of our friends also successfully bought with Samantha in San Francisco so we decided to reach out. The process was simple, we met on a zoom call and shared what our preferences and deal breakers were. Four months later and we closed in the sunset district! We never felt pressured and Samantha kept us positive and kept us engaged as the market competitiveness can be disheartening at times.

Samantha helped me through every step of the process of selling my home and purchasing a new one…read more Thanks to her expertise and strategy, my house sold for $170K over the asking price in less than a week after listing. She also helped create professional marketing videos and promoted the property on social media, which brought in great exposure and strong offers. On top of that, her team was incredible , they helped refresh and prepare my house within just a few weeks before listing, making it look its best for buyers. I truly feel blessed to have had Samantha as my agent. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell or buy a home. Her professionalism, dedication, and amazing team made the entire experience smooth and successful.

After relocating to Washington, we worked with Kevin and his team to sell our condo in NoPa -- and…read morewe couldn't be more grateful. We were introduced to him through a close friend who had worked with him before, and I can see why they recommended Kevin's team. Kevin is highly organized, ambitious, and one of the hardest-working people we've ever met. From the start, he came to us with a clear vision: make thoughtful improvements to maximize appeal to buyers. He handled the entire process seamlessly, managing every detail and going above and beyond to keep expectations aligned every step of the way. If you're buying or selling in San Francisco, we'd recommend Kevin without hesitation. He truly puts his heart into his work.

Kevin goes above and beyond as a realtor. During the home search process, he toured potential…read moreproperties and recorded videos highlighting all the relevant details, giving me a thorough preview of each home. When evaluating a property, he prioritized investigating every detail--sometimes literally digging around--to make sure it was safe and sound. He took the time to understand my priorities and helped me purchase a property I'm truly excited about. The property needed some updates and changes, and Kevin helped with the heavy lifting by making a list, identifying the key issues, and helping prioritize the work that needed to be done. When I shared everything Kevin was helping me with, friends were surprised. They said their realtors were no longer involved after the sale. Kevin clearly loves the process of matching homes with buyers. I'm grateful for his help and support.

I'm writing this review on behalf of my godfather who sold his home in Richmond district, San…read moreFrancisco. As we all know the San Francisco market is extremely competitive for buyers and there was no doubt Ashley was able to help my godfather navigate the home sale process as she communicated effectively and used her negotiation skills to get him the best offer. She came as the neighborhood specialist and knew her stuff. He received multiple offers, way, way above list price and he couldn't be happier. I believe there were hiccups in the escrow process however, Ashley was great in setting expectations for all parties involved and gave my godfather reassurance. We highly recommend Ashley as she definitely was pivotal in getting the results my godfather expected.

Luckily, we reached out to Ashley and she helped us build a good understanding of property investing, what's needed in order to purchase a home, and everything else we needed to know. She was very professional, knowledgeable, and detailed. Most importantly, she was very patient and understanding with us - we asked many, many questions and possibly asked the same questions twice. If you're looking for a home, I would highly recommend Ashley. She will keep you informed and updated. Thanks for everything, Ashley!

At the outset, Austin took time and care to understand our priorities in choosing a home. He would routinely update us with fresh listings to help us better understand the market and refine our preferences. As our search narrowed, he connected us with high-quality references to help us get financed and ready to purchase. Throughout the offer process, Austin and his team were responsive and professional...absolutely crucial to navigating a competitive market! Even after closing and final walkthroughs, Austin went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed to get settled into our new house. We are so happy with our new home and have Austin and his awesome team to thank. If you're looking for home, Austin has our trust and highest recommendation!

This is how we would describe Austin: Straight shooter, really puts your needs first, great follow up and follow through. We met him when he hosted a house for us to see and we could tell immediately that he was a trustworthy person. Just like everyone else in the bay area, we know more than our fair share of realtors. Austin is the only one we saw honesty and integrity through immediately. It was a pleasure buying a house with him and building a friendship.

Suki is a LEGEND!!! Buying a house in bay area is very different than buying anywhere else. Buying…read morea house in SF? That is a whole different tier of craziness. As first time buyers, Suki literally hand held us through the process. Here's how it went: - Before even looking at the houses, Suki coached us on the SF buying journey. Neighbourhoods, comps, disclosures, bank processes etc., It took hours and Suki was patient through all of it. We went from not knowing what "pre-qualification" meant to assessing if a house was a good/bad flip in a quick scan. - Throughout the search (which lasted for weeks), she helped us assess all the houses in the market if they are a fit for our specific needs, budget, and long term viability. Suki was always available (sometimes even responding before i finish typing :)) - THIS IS KEY!!! During offers, she consistently dissuaded us from making emotional/rash decisions. Suki was the counter balance and voice of reason. Always brought down the discussion to objective facts and numbers when we were being swayed by emotion. - I think Suki knows every agent in the bay area. While placing offers, Suki's network was very helpful. It made sure we stayed in the game till the last moment. - Every house needs a different strategy to close. Pre-emptive offers, during the day, creative financial approaches etc., Suki guided us through all of it. - CHERRY ON THE TOP!!! After close, Suki helped us meet a couple of neighbours before moving in, to make sure we feel home very quickly. As buyers, all we want to make sure is that we aren't making a wrong decision. To avoid regret of commission (overpaying for a house) and regret of omission (missing out on a house). That's where Suki really helped us. I've consistently seen her guide us away from placing emotional offers on a few homes. Even though it would have helped her, she went against it and prioritized our long term happiness in the home. Buying a house in SF is nuanced, complex, and in some cases, outright crazy. I really hope you all have Suki by your side to guide you through it. Good luck!!!

When we met on the phone he…read morementioned that if we needed help getting the property ready for sale, he was "not afraid to get his hands dirty". At first, I did not really take him seriously, but it turned out he was not joking. He was hugely helpful and personally tidied up the back yard and cleaned out storage areas during staging as well as after the sale. He really went above and beyond, and it made a things so much easier since we were managing the sale from out of state. His professionalism and communication were excellent, and his years of experience in the neighborhood were instrumental in finding an excellent new family to fill our loved one's old home. On a personal note, Max took excellent care of us, and the home, during an emotionally challenging time. Thank you Max! We are happy to provide him an outstanding recommendation.

We just both bought our new home and sold our previous home with Sherri's team and couldn't be…read morehappier. After interviewing 4 candidates, we selected Team Howe to be our buyer's agent because of their extensive experience in the market we were interested in, because of their attention to detail, their willingness to negotiate about price, and the examples they provided in pointing out red flags to previous buyers. Also, very important for us, we wanted someone honest and reliable who wouldn't cut corners, and we got that in Team Howe. Sherri assigned an excellent primary agent to us who was patient, thorough and reliable, while she and her team provided additional expertise where needed. As a combined team, they were always available. With her extensive experience, Sherri was able to provide more background to some of the pros and cons we found in properties we were considering, and was crucial in pointing out the irregularities in a TIC agreement we were considering. After our positive experience as buyers, we retained Team Howe as seller's agent for our previous place. Even before we had moved out of our previous place, Sherri and her team got to work and got all the contractors in back-to-back on one day for quotes. After our move-out, the same contractors came in to prepare the property for sale on an equally tight back-to-back schedule. Sherri and her team did an amazing job in advising us on the painting (down to the very colors), staging and marketing of the property. They created interest and we accepted a winning offer 2 days after the first open house. We sold at a price higher than an identical unit in the building in the same building a few weeks earlier! The 8-day close period was intense, but Sherri kept her team on track. All in all there were 6 weeks between our move-out and selling our previous home. We highly recommend Team Howe.

While there was A LOT to do from getting all my furniture donated to painting, floor refinishing, repairs, garage cleanup, even supporting my upstairs neighbor, her team did it quickly and quietly all while I sat on a beach in Spain. Michael who did all the prep work is incredible. He even made sure my upstairs neighbor was happy. I need one of him in my life. I can't imagine anyone doing a better job.
