After living in SF for 15 years, it was time to settle down and move to East Bay. Our search included parts of Oakland, Montclair, Berkeley, Albany, El Cerrito. Annie was referred to us by a friend/agent in San Francisco. She was an incredible resource for knowledge of the area; she was able to identify the style and needs of our family, and she is well-connected in the real estate community. As it turned out, this helped our situation since we were able to close on a house that was seemingly under the radar. She showed us a home that exceeded our expectations in the Lakeshore/Piedmont neighborhood, which we promptly closed on recently. Throughout the search, she was transparent and communicative, making herself available for showings when needed. We are very pleased with her assistance throughout the process and are happy to recommend her to anyone buying/selling homes in the area.

Annie was amazing as my realtor! It's hard to put into words, but coming from another agent I felt like the general feeling I got from Annie was that she was not trying to rush me out the door to close and immediately cash out on whichever offer flew in first with an acceptance. We looked through numerous different listings and discussed the pros and cons and I felt very well taken care of throughout the process! I think as time passed, Annie was really good at identifying my own personal preferences and desires for a future home and would be really candid about some listings that she felt like did not fit my lifestyle. She even went above and beyond and went to open houses on my behalf and facetimed me in when I was ill. Eventually, we ended up closing on an off-market house which for me was like the holy grail of any house search. I'm very happy with the results of our search and would highly recommend Annie (and have) to anybody seeking to find a home without feeling unnecessary pressure on houses that were anything less than perfect.

Last year, I asked Annie to handle a complex project: sell my bachelor pad condo and upgrade to a larger condo for my wife and me, both in San Francisco. Annie took the challenge and stepped up to the plate. Right away Annie and her team gave us guidance and were transparent about the process. She was honest and communicative. Unexpectedly, the real estate market had a slight down turn. But Annie somehow presented us with an offer at my lofty asking price! Even better, less than two weeks later, our offer for a new condo was accepted...at less than asking! She juggled both selling and buying simultaneously, while going between the seller, the buyer, our mortgage lender, and us seamlessly. I don't know how she managed to handle everything so smoothly. Throughout the whole process, she was calm, responsive, and had a can-do attitude. How many agents out there say they installed a water pan under a stacked washer/dryer unit on their own? Ultimately, the results speak for themselves: 1.) I sold my condo at my asking price 2.) We purchased our dream home 3.) My wife and I are still married after this journey. When it comes time to look for our next home, Annie would be my first and only call.
