  • Buyer, San Francisco
    "Rebecca is super smart and great at giving advice when it comes to handling tricky situations. She was on top of comps with every house and figuring out how to get a great deal. She understood our style well with the kind of house we wanted to be in and made it a priority in recommending certain houses...." - Shreedhar, Buyer, Multi-Unit
  • Seller, Sonoma
    "This is my third time working with Rebecca (representing me as both a buyer and a seller). Rebecca did a fantastic job - this transaction was selling a piece of vacant land in unincorporated Sonoma County, so many calls from potential buyers wanting to know details about the land and what was buildable. She kept track of all the interest in the property so when an offer came in she immediately let others that were interested in the property know and we ended up getting 3 competitive offers, she helped me navigate the pros and cons of the different offers to a great outcome. I will work with Rebecca again."
  • Seller, Sausalito
    "Rebecca was responsive, knowledgeable, professional and patient. I live out of the country so I really appreciated her availability and willingness to always go the extra mile. She is a terrific agent and I recommend her highly and without reservation." - Pamela, Out of Area Seller
  • Seller, San Francisco
    "We had to sell my mother’s house in California while living in New York and Rebecca did an amazing job for us. She facilitated all aspects of the home sale and has an excellent knowledge of her industry. She made our long distance home sale very easy for us. We would definitely use her again!" - Ken, Out of Area Seller
  • Buyer & Seller, San Francisco
    "This was our second time working with Rebecca, first as a buyer and now as a seller. She was very helpful in prepping our condo, and we liked one of the contractors she used so much we are even using them for some work on our new house. For things like staging, paint colors, price strategy etc. she project managed and gave us guidance, but let us choose what we thought would be best rather than just deciding for us. When we had special requests, like getting rid of a few items that were left behind, she was happy to oblige. She did her best to manage our expectations since we were hoping to sell for more than she thought we could get in the current market. We ended up selling in an average timeframe and even beat her expectations on selling price! Thanks again for all of your help, Rebecca!!" - Deb & Nick
  • Buyer & Seller, Sausalito
    "Rebecca has represented us both for a home purchase and subsequent sale in Marin County. She is honest, knowledgeable and provides continual updates and explanations during the process. Rebecca went above and beyond by supporting us after our initial purchase as we were remote buyers. Her market insight and advice was invaluable during both transactions. We would, without a doubt, use Rebecca again in future. We can highly recommend her." - Craig & Marjorie
  • Buyer, Return Clients
    "This is easy, Rebecca is the best! She helped me buy my first home in 2010, and again found a dream home for me and my wife now in 2020. Both times I've worked with her it's been a pleasure from start to finish." - Eran & Kylie
  • Buyer, Alameda
    "Rebecca was a dream to work with! We were first-time homebuyers and had no idea what all went into buying a house, and she walked us through the entire process in a concise, pragmatic, and informative manner. She was always very responsive and willing to answer any and all questions that we had. She pointed out the things we need to know about home buying, such as identifying problems with a home and which lender to go with. She checked in with us constantly and made sure we felt involved in the process. You can't go wrong choosing Rebecca!" - Max & Josee
  • Seller, San Francisco
    "Rebecca went far over and above in getting our condo ready for the sale and included us in every step of the process. She hired and had the unit staged and in excellent shape so that every potential buyer was impressed. We are in another state. Every step of the process was dealt with with professionalism and excellent communication, even though it had few extra steps because we were out of town. I'm sure you will pleased to hire Rebecca as your agent." - Jan
  • Buyer, Alameda
    "Nobody will fight harder for you. We somehow got a house we loved in a super competitive bid (7 offers) when our final offer wasn't even the highest. I have no doubt that this is due to Rebecca's relentless energy in pushing for us. She'll do all the little things like formatting your offer in a super attractive package to give you the best shot possible. We could not be happier with the house we got thanks to Rebecca. I hope you have a chance to work with her!" - Joel & Emily
  • Buyer, San Francisco
    "In my house search there were so many points of contact for different parts of the transaction. I often felt no one was really considering my best interest except for Rebecca. This was my first home purchase and things started off very confusing and rocky and my initial agent was not very clear about details. I later decided to switch realtors and actually interviewed several realtors until I found Rebecca. I must say, I cannot be happier about working her. She is super punctual and always does her research on the properties. Most importantly, Rebecca gave me unbiased advice, so I felt I could always trust her. In a competitive market where everyone is looking out for themselves, you want Rebecca on your team." - Wasif
  • Seller & Buyer, Marin County
    "Rebecca just helped me sell my Marin condo and she was great - such a pleasure to work with! This is my second time working with Rebecca and both times has been amazing. My condo received multiple offers (in a summer "slow down" market) but yet sold for over asking price. Rebecca was highly responsive and communicative during the entire process. I would strongly recommend anyone to partner with her in your home search or selling. Thank you Rebecca!" - Patricia
  • Seller, San Francisco
    "Rebecca is a great agent and I would highly recommend her. She was helpful with the sale of my mothers place after her passing. As I lived in a different part of the state she assisted with the whole sale of the condo. She assisted with repairs of the condo and guided me through the whole sale. She keep me up to date through the whole process." - Jason
  • Buyer & Seller, San Francisco
    "Rebecca yet again went above and beyond to deliver a wonderful real estate experience, this time as sellers. She had phenomenal partners who helped get our home ready for sale and we ended up selling our home above asking price during a super saturated market. Thanks Rebecca as always for being such a rockstar!" - Pamela
  • San Francisco, Buyer
    "Rebecca was referred to me by a work colleague and after meeting with a few other realtors that I didn't feel strongly about, I immediately felt like I was in the right hands when I met with Rebecca. As a first-time buyer, I had a lot of questions and needed a lot of hand-holding. Rebecca was extremely patient with me and demonstrated a ton of knowledgable about the San Francisco market, it's rules and regulations. During our search, she kept in touch with me each day, made it a point to get to know me and my preferences and made the otherwise stressful experience, a joy. I would highly recommend Rebecca, and will definitely be using her if/when I end up selling my home!" - Amy
