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 - 4/12/2022

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 - 3/25/2022

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 - 3/21/2022

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 - 2/10/2022

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 - 1/10/2022

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 - 1/04/2022

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 - 9/10/2021

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.
We could not speak more highly of Deborah, or recommend her enough!! read less - 7/23/2021

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 - 7/12/2021

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 - 6/05/2021
