Deborah was incredibly astute, helpful, and intuitive while exploring our needs and matching them to the most suitable micro-neighborhoods. As a first-time homebuyer, it was invaluable to have Deborah's extensive experience in prioritizing the many facets of a home in a structured way.

As we became increasingly ready to purchase a home, Deborah gave us a highly accurate and robust view of the San Francisco real estate market. Her ability to understand value, market conditions, and communicate in a clear and decisive way took a great deal of stress out of the home buying process. We constantly felt like we were the top priority and that we had a highly dedicated partner in Deborah.

When it came to the negotiations, we feel that Deborah's extensive knowledge, dedication, and network positioned us to achieve everything we wanted in a home and it surprisingly fit within our budget. Working with Deborah greatly exceeded our expectations and some months later, reflecting back, working with her was the best decision we made in the home search process. We couldn't have been happier with both the process and the outcome.

We can most highly recommend Deborah and cannot praise her abilities as a real estate agent highly enough! read less

Each time has been a great experience. Her attention to detail is unmatched. Deborah's local knowledge of the city is amazing. She orchestrated the entire sale process for us seamlessly.

She is knowledgeable about the area and has now three times smoothly helped us buy and sell homes. For the latest sale, she orchestrated work prior to the sale, staging, and all the prep as we had already moved out of town. Deborah did an amazing job on the negotiations. We used user to sell in 1999, buy in 2014 and now sell again in 2022. My wife and I can't recommend her highly enough. She sweats all the details as if it was her home! read less

I'm here to let you know: You will not, ever, find a better real estate agent than Deborah. She is absolutely best in class and embodies everything you need on your side in what is arguably one of the more significant milestones in life.

Here's why: Deborah's market knowledge is impeccable. Her strategy on timing, pricing, presentation in conjunction with fulfilling our own needs is a winning combination. Through our time working together, what set her apart was her transparency, insight, attention to detail, diligence, follow-through and general advocacy through the whole process, truly remarkable.

Our scenario: My senior parents wanted to relocate. After 50 years in SF their home needed a "little" freshening up (aka overhaul). With Deborah's trusted network we transformed what already was a SF classic into a show stopper! I could hardly believe my eyes at the reveal and the listing pictures. Under my breath I could be heard saying I wish "I" could have kept the place! I digress. Heeding all Deborah's advice, we were able to get my parents a price well over asking, securing their future and livelihoods. Through it all, she remained reassuring, patient, kind and wise. This was not easy. My mother, that cried thought the first walk through, was so enamored with her that she just wanted hug her to thank her for everything she'd done. Not to mention inviting her to family dinner and new housewarming party.

I could go on but honestly, if I keep you any longer its more time you have without her. Your time time would be better spent reaching out to Deborah. You will not regret it. read less

We made several offers with Deborah and for each one she was an expert guide, she gave us accurate price ranges and what factors were important for us to decide. She was super responsive and supportive without putting any pressure on us, alerting us when a possible house match was coming on the market and texting or calling when we had a question about a listing.

Throughout the process Deborah was patient and extremely informative with expertise in the area, process, loans, and trade-offs of San Francisco houses. read less

She helped us find our dream home. Denorah has decades of experience and stays in top of the market. She features all of the traits you would want in an agent - knowledgeable, trustworthy, responsive, and diligent. In a tough market, she stayed on top of new Listings, and gave us honest assessments of whether to pursue a listing or not. Some agents might be out to make a quick buck. Not Deborah. We always felt that she was looking out for our best interests, and it worked out in the end. I would highly recommend that you contact Deborah if you're looking for an agent. read less

Just as we were about to give up our search a colleague recommended Deborah to us, and she did not disappoint.

As first time home buyers we often didn't know what questions to ask and where to look, but Deborah was there to help guide us with her knowledge and experience in San Francisco neighborhoods and homes. She would often bring up items we wouldn't have known to look for ourselves. Never sugarcoating her words she made sure we knew what to expect for each house we viewed and didn't pressure us into jumping on the first house we liked. Instead, she talked us through our options and weighed the pros and cons, before helping us make a decision and ultimately an offer. read less

Deborah was referred to me and my fiancé from by brother and it couldn't have worked out better! She was responsive, prompt, honest with her opinions / answer to our questions (and would back them up with examples), and genuinely wanted to help us find the right place for us.

We started seriously looking for a place in August 2021. After speaking with us on the phone and getting to know more about us, what we were looking for and in what price range we scheduled a follow up where she took us to several open houses so we could get feel for what was out there. Throughout the entire process she wasn't pushy, she let us move at our own pace and she took to the time to answer all of our questions and walk us through each step, which for first time buyers was very important. She was also extremely knowledgeable and used her years of experience to point out things out to us that we would not have known to ask or consider.

Once we did find a place she helped us move quickly to get everything in order. Even though it was a stressful couple of days she was there to answer questions and keep us on track. She stayed with us through the entire process from when the offer was ultimately accepted to when we closed on the place and picked up on keys!

We could not have asked for a better experience! read less

She had helped us with buying our house in 2018 and we have asked her also to assist us in selling the property in 2021. She is excellent in client relationship, she guided us through the entire process, gave us great recommendations to prepare the house for sale and maximize its potential. Deborah has an incredible pulse of the market conditions, go to market best timing, her pricing strategy turned out to be successful and her house advertising was flawless. And, cherry on the cake, she mixes her professionalism with her caring attitude which makes you always feel you are in the best possible hands! read less

She’s the most fair, honest, clear and focused person and balances that with a ton of consideration and thought towards your own personal life, career, needs and dreams to really help you find the best path through a milestone in your life. She also has so much experience that there’s never a surprise with her, and through both purchasing and selling homes with her over the past 5 years, we definitely threw some curveballs. But every single time, and without hesitation, she knew (in detail) what to do.

She knows the trade inside out, is always available (her typical text response time is about 1 minute), is incredibly patient, and will be honest with you without ever being pushy. She figured out my taste pretty quickly and focused in on what I wanted really well. She helped me watch out for things I wouldn't have thought of, and was endlessly generous with her knowledge, experience, and network. She was on my side 100% and never once made me feel pressured or rushed. The place I ended up with was never fully listed and wasn't cleaned up or staged for sale, so I never would have found it without her keen eye. I know several other people who have worked with her as well with equally excellent experiences - including really going to bat to fix issues large and small.

She cares about her work in the kind of deep way that is really just genuinely caring about her clients' happiness and success - to the point of building lasting personal friendships with many. I would recommend Deborah 100% to anyone looking for a home in SF. read less

I moved out of my SF condo during Covid as I needed a bigger space for my son. I worked with another agent before Deborah, and she was okay but she just couldn't sell it for six months despite the fact that we lowered the price significantly. After that six months, with a strong recommendation from another friend of mine, I've decided to work with Deborah. In less than 10 days, she found a buyer who was a perfect fit for for my condo. Ultimately selling your property matters and Deborah did a fantastic job doing so, but I also want to call out how responsive and accommodating she was throughout the whole process (however late in the night. I have a full time job and a toddler so it wasn't easy for me to contact her during the day time). She's very attentive and empathetic, and I can't recommend her enough. read less

She even went above and beyond in helping me with some minor repairs and renovations of my new home purchase. Enlisting contractors that she worked with as well as making her self available in surveying their work.

To start, her depth of knowledge of the San Francisco real estate market is second to none. One of our favorite things to do was to ask her about the specific pros and cons of any building we were looking in and she would be able to provide us detailed histories of the building on top of the pros and cons. Her responsiveness is amazing. She was there for us whenever we needed her and worked around our schedule for showings and discussions. Additionally, she was so helpful in navigating the legalese and real estate jargon when looking at all the documentation. We felt like we had learned so much about what to look for in disclosures due to her patience and detailed explanations.

We definitely will use Deborah again in the future. read less

She explained how they would react to certain actions/requests done by the buyer/us. She helped navigate the overall process with ease and confidence. She advised us on how to best approach certain situations that came up like delays with the loan process, etc.... She went above and beyond by offering touch up paint services out of her own pocket when the seller's agent was unwilling to when going through the final walkthrough. I would definitely recommend her to any new homebuyer. read less

My husband and I bought a new single family home and sold our old condo with Deborah. This was the second time buying a home in San Francisco and working with Deborah for the second time. She is a terrific realtor and after working with her again, it is obvious that she possesses a depth of experience and knowledge of the SF market. All this happened during COVID, which added a layer of complexity to the whole process.

When we first started the home buying process, Deborah listened to our home wants and needs and asked the right questions to help us find our dream home. We saw about 15 homes with Deborah before finding the right one. Touring with her was always fun (and she's on time!) and she pointed so many things out about each home.

What I admire most from Deborah is her honesty. She won't lie to you and also sets realistic expectations during both the home buying and selling processes. Also, she is extremely well connected, which really helps when putting in an offer. She was also adept and skillful in the negotiation process during the sale of our condo.

Deborah is also very busy with lots of other clients but we never felt ignored. She would always answer any email or text quickly, as if we were her only client. We really love our new home, and it was made possible with Deborah's help. read less

Not only was I in a different state, I was faced with a limited amount of inventory in my price range and preferred locations. It took Deborah and I nearly 4 months of patient looking to finally locate the right property for me. Deborah took care of every detail. She is very knowledgeable regarding the market, locations, history of buildings, etc. Most importantly, she was always very aware of what would work or what would not work for me even though we had never met. I passed on former agents because they simply were not “listening” to my needs. I was doing all of my looking via her refined search for me, her knowledge of properties coming onto the market and face-times of properties I wanted to “see.” She was on point in making prompt arrangements for her to view properties. Deborah made this stressful relocation and purchase enjoyable and we never gave up hope of finding the right place. She had every detail covered, even when my closing was scheduled at the same time of her vacation. Highly recommend. read less

Given our lack of experience, we were looking for an agent that would help guide us through this competitive market during COVID. We’re super glad that we made the perfect choice with Deborah.

We were blown away with how incredibly knowledgeable, competent, and responsive Deborah was. No matter when we had a question, Deborah responded within minutes and was able to fit in time to have quick phone calls with us to not only answer our questions, but also explain the details of whatever we were asking. She definitely also had patience for my never ending list of questions, which was really appreciated, even though we’re sure she was really busy all the time.

Deborah helped handle so much of the process for us, besides just finding us listings and taking us to showings, she also met with us in depth to explain the paperwork we needed to sign, recommended inspections for us to do, helped us understand what future repair work would be needed, explained to us the details of home insurance, and much more. She really demonstrated her experience time after time, as she understood the details of many nuances of San Francisco’s markets, buildings, codes, etc, that wouldn’t be immediately apparent through self-research.

Deborah also never made us feel like she would drop the ball, as she was always available and would quickly update us with new information as soon as it became available, which is extremely important in the fast-moving, real-time SF real estate market. She not only made sure she always did her end of the job correctly, but she also made sure to keep our lender, title company, inspectors, insurance agent, etc on schedule as well to make sure the whole closing process and deal went smoothly (which it did in the end).

Lastly, despite Deborah being very serious and to-the-point with her work, she always felt very warm and kind to us and we never felt hesitant to chat with her.

I honestly wish everyone I worked with was as on top of things as Deborah was! You would definitely not be making a mistake choosing her as your agent to buy in San Francisco. read less

Deborah knows SF very well, down to the buildings, and in some cases even the units. Having that kind of intell at your fingertips is incredibly helpful, especially in a crazy competitive market.

Her solid relationships with the broker community also means your transaction will go smoothly, as it's already built on a foundation of friendship and trust. I also relied on Deborah for a lender recommendation, where best to buy appliances, even SF's best restaurants!

Amidst unprecedented and challenging times (the global pandemic CV19) she was also able to ensure we closed quickly, ahead of schedule, so that I could shelter in place in my new home. It's hard to put into words the psychic relief this has given me.

Have transacted in real estate 3x and this was by far the easiest (albeit in the hardest market) and most seamless, largely due to Deborah's expertise and resolution oriented ways. Highly recommend! read less

She represented me incredibly well as a buyer's agent for my very first condo in SF. To say I was a bit nervous about the entire process is a bit of an understatement. However, from the very minute of my introduction to Deborah, I knew I was in good hands. She was incredibly thoughtful and thorough in helping me search for potential properties, swift to set up showings, and diligent in her perspective on each place I visited. Her knowledge of San Francisco and, in particular, the real estate market is insane. When the time came to make an offer, Deborah patiently walked me through the process and gave me truly valuable guidance. She really did make the entire ordeal so much less stressful. I absolutely love my new home and am so grateful to have found the one real estate agent I'll ever need in SF! Thanks Deborah! read less

During our search for a home we met so many people that work in different niches of real estate (as well as numerous agents of course), but very few to none that we came across excel within the profession like Deborah. With all her years in the business locally, she knows it all, and without her we would have had so many unanswered questions, time lost and likely would not have honed in on the prefect place we were looking for so quickly.

As an aside, my immediate family is in real estate in Colorado, so when we set out to buy our first home we asked for a pre-screening of agents in SF that sounded good. Deborah was on the short, shortlist, and we just saw so quickly she was #1.

Highly recommend, most respected and someone you can trust! read less

She found us our first home in SF within exactly one month of hiring her (beyond record time) that somehow satisfied every single must have on our very long list and that we are absolutely thrilled with a month after moving. Almost more impressive, however, is that she somehow made this very intense process fun and enjoyable as opposed to a panicked search for more space as we prepare for the arrival of our first child.

Deborah truly took care of us from start to finish, from pointing out that certain neighborhoods or homes would not work for us before we realized and accepted this ourselves, to driving the process forward on our behalf with constant communication throughout, to connecting us with her incredible painter and designer / colorist during the closing process so that we could have everything beautifully painted in the short window we had between closing and moving.

Deborah knows the city and the market like the back of her hand, from exactly which blocks of a neighborhood get sun to the renovations that have been done to specific houses since they last turned over. In addition to all of her knowledge and expertise, perhaps her best skill was her ability to truly listen to us and respond, which allowed our thinking and priorities to evolve quickly over the course of our month-long search and ultimately allowed us to find something we loved so quickly.

She is incredibly busy and hard-working (late night showings to early morning calls) and yet somehow always available and happy to chat. We were beyond grateful to have her 25 years of experience and connections on our side as we navigated the complex world of SF real estate, mortgages, and insurance, and could not have been happier with Deborah or our first home. read less

She's more like a fairy godmother who stepped into our lives and took control of a really complicated selling situation. We don't know what we would have done without her because there were certain intricacies to our sale based on a pretty damning disclosure we were going to have to make about our property (downstairs neighbors were suddenly beginning a big construction project). Deborah suggested a course of action that was ambitious but practical, and she's so clearly knowledgeable and intelligent that it was very easy to turn things over to her direction. Once the plan was in place, things started to happen magically. Her contractors and painters were over immediately (like, next-day), and every question we asked her over email or text was answered within minutes. Minutes! She appeared to meet with us multiple times and never made us feel rushed or unimportant. And like other reviewers have mentioned, she even worked on our project from her vacation!! The thing about Deborah is that you can tell she genuinely enjoys solving problems and helping families. When we eventually got an unexpected off-market offer for our condo, Deborah flexibly changed gears and took ownership over setting up the sale for us which SHE DID NOT HAVE TO DO but did out of loyalty and good faith to our newly established relationship. The execution of this off-market sale was incredibly challenging because the buyer did not use an agent of his own, so Deborah had to work with this guy who was both uninformed and arrogant. Deborah set REALLY good boundaries with him to get us the fast sale that we were looking for, and she dealt with his shenanigans in a really savvy way that impressed me to no end. This is to say that I learned new people skills from Deborah! Honestly, I just can't say enough good things about her. If you go with her, you will not be disappointed. She is the best. read less
