As first-time homebuyers searching for our forever home, we were working under a tight four-month deadline--and thanks to their exceptional team, we found the perfect home in just two months. We worked closely with Wesley and Kinsey, who were both incredible throughout the entire process. They took the time to educate us on every part of the home-buying journey, helped us understand the pros and cons of each property, and answered every question and concern we had with patience and clarity. Their experience truly shows. Wesley and Kinsey are outstanding negotiators who helped us secure a great deal on our home. They were honest, supportive, and knowledgeable from start to finish, making what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. If you want honest, patient, and highly experienced realtors, we cannot recommend OWN Real Estate enough. They helped us find our forever home, and we are so grateful for their guidance and dedication.

Working with Nero was great from start to end. As first time home buyers, the process was somewhat…read moreintimidating. Navigating all the different organizations and requirements along with the hundreds of pages of documents was made infinitely easier knowing that Nero was always available to answer our questions. Nero also gave us the distinct impression that he genuinely wanted to help. He went above and beyond in making sure everything went smoothly, even outside of his direct responsibilities as a realtor. For example, when one of the inspectors couldn't find access to the crawl space, Nero took time out of his day to come to the property and find it himself. This is just one of the many examples which made us feel that Nero truly cared. We will definitely be reaching out to Nero again if we, or anyone we know, needs a realtor in the future. I cannot recommend him enough!

Kevin and his team know exactly what improvements make a difference, and they handle everything with professionalism and care.

Thanks to the guidance…read moreand experience of Kevin Cruz and his Kinetic Real Estate team, our house was quickly sold without incurring any renovation costs. Surprisingly, before the house was even listed on the market, we got a great offer just two weeks after we signed a contract with Kevin. This shows how well-connected and experienced Kevin and his team is with both buyers and sellers of properties in the Bay Area/Daly City market. We were very impressed by his presentation of showcasing the property to gain maximum exposure to both online and visiting buyers. As our realtor, Kevin was in constant communication throughout the entire process and we ended up getting the best deal possible. Selling a home has never been so well-organized, convenient and satisfying. I highly recommend and compliment Kevin and Kinetic Real Estate for an outstanding job!

It's hard to describe how good of an experience it was to work with Kevin and Jonathan--they've…read morecompletely changed our opinion of how great real estate can be. We were nervous first-time home buyers, and had seen a condo we liked that was just listed, but didn't know any realtors. We cold emailed Kevin and Jonathan on Thursday night, had a video call later that night, read through the disclosures and worked out an offer plan that weekend, and by Monday morning our offer had been accepted. The speed they work at is insane! And yet at no point did we feel rushed into any decisions, because they are so thoughtful about laying out exactly what to watch out for, and what the upcoming steps will be. Not only that, but once we had the place they gave us a huge amount of information on doing renovations, and a big list of local contractors they recommend for each specific type of job. Kevin even drove us to his favorite lighting showroom, and introduced us to wood floor refinishers who were able to start that week. We're incredibly happy we found Kevin and Jonathan, and will be recommending them to all of our friends. Anyone looking to buy or sell in San Francisco would be lucky to work with them!

My wife and I spent 15 years in the East Bay dreaming about moving back to San Francisco, but when…read morewe finally decided to make it happen, we came to the search pretty unfocused. We knew what we wanted (classic SF character, water views, a walkable and vibrant neighborhood) but had no clear sense of where to find it all or how to think about our budget. We needed more than a real estate agent; we needed someone who could help us find the dream itself. Danielle Lazier at Vivre Real Estate became our buyer's agent, and she was exactly that person. She listened carefully, zeroed in quickly on what would feel like home to us, and brought real clarity to how our budget aligned with home values on the ground. She was direct and always available, without ever making us feel rushed. We found a stunning co-op apartment in Russian Hill with breathtaking views. Danielle's strategic pricing advice helped us craft a winning offer, and her expertise navigating the additional complexities of a co-op transaction was invaluable. She connected us with excellent vendors, guided us through contingencies, and kept us calm through closing. If you're a home buyer trying to navigate San Francisco's uniquely complex real estate market, there is no one more qualified to have in your corner. She turned a vague old dream into our actual home, and we couldn't be more grateful.

Danielle and her team guided us through the process with patience, giving us the time we needed to truly understand the market and making sure we settled on a place we genuinely loved. As the years passed, work brought us to Asia, and once it became clear we would not be returning to San Francisco, we made the decision to sell. Holding a property from thousands of miles away carries real complexity -- practical, financial, and tax considerations alike. Despite the distance, Danielle delivered an excellent sale and her team executed a remarkably smooth and swift closing. Our notary signing was conducted entirely online, with my wife joining from Singapore and myself from Paris -- a seamless process across time zones. Thank you, Danielle and Vivre team.

I truly feel blessed to have had Samantha as my agent. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell or buy a home.

He listened and noted all the things I was looking for in a dream home. From there, he would send me listings of homes that he felt would be a good fit based on what I was looking for. He took care of setting all the appointments and was the middle person between me and the sellers. He also made sure the homes he sent over were in a safe neighborhood. He stayed on top of all deadlines and helped me map out everything I would need to make the closing process as simple and streamlined as possible.

Working with Yesenia was one of the best decisions we made during our home search. As first-time…read morehome buyers, we were navigating a lot of uncertainty, and she made the entire process feel grounded and manageable. She is incredibly knowledgeable about each neighborhood, from the nuances of location to comps and shifting market dynamics. What really stood out was how Yesenia helped us think clearly and never pushed us in any direction, but instead guided us toward defining what our dream home truly looked like. That clarity made all the difference when it came time to act. In a highly competitive and constantly changing market, Yesenia helped us put together a strong, thoughtful offer strategy. Yesenia was patient throughout our months-long search, always responsive, and consistently kind. We genuinely enjoyed working with her-our vibe just clicked from day one. Even after our offer was accepted, her support didn't stop. From contract to close (and even beyond), she was there every step of the way, which meant a lot to us as first-time buyers.

As my wife and I looked to purchase our first home, we were concerned the San Francisco market may be too much for us. Too expensive. Too fast. Too stressful. All of it. Luckily, we connected with Val and the Krishnan team after seeing some of their YouTube videos. Through the use of data, Val showed we could live in the city that means so much to us. Her knowledge of the area seemed so thorough that it gave us the confidence to move forward. By going off-market and showing us a condo that exceeded our expectations, we almost immediately found the home that brought the sense of peace we were searching for. During the whirlwind of stress to acquire it over the next 24 hours after viewing, Val was incredibly responsive and kind. We now have the place of our dreams and Val's efforts could not be understated. We are very appreciative.
