WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

My husband and I feel very lucky to have had Amanda as our buyer's agent. Her deep knowledge of San Francisco neighborhoods combined with an ability to really listen to what we were looking for in a house were so useful as we navigated the often-overwhelming waters of SF real estate. Amanda was on top of new listings, always keeping our needs in mind.

— Jennifer and Dave | Buyer

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

As a first time home buyer the process seemed overwhelming and scary. Amanda did an amazing job of walking me through the process at my pace. Answering all my questions and educating me about other questions I should be asking and information I needed to be aware of. I highly recommend Amanda as a realtor!

— Karin C. | Buyer

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I am a real estate professional who needed help pricing a condo in an area I consider Amanda to be an expert. She was generous with her time and knowledge and very wonderful to work with. A true professional.

— Danielle | Realtor

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Amanda was so patient with me. Only after a few meetings and viewings, Amanda knew exactly what I was looking for. She showed me properties that were spot on. I felt like I was house hunting with a really good friend! Will rely on Amanda always!

— Tina | Buyer

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I cannot say enough about Amanda! I didn't start my home search in earnest until January, and by February I'd bought my first ever home in my desired neighborhood, under the top of my budget! She's really fantastic, especially for a first-time homebuyer in SF's crazy market. She came highly recommended and I'm happy to pass on that recommendation to others!

— Jackie O. | Buyer

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

We talked to a number of top agents in the city. I feel compelled to write this review for Amanda because she was so thorough, comprehensive, and thoughtful in her analysis of our home. She's super responsive, very honest (not sales-y at all), and just a kind person. I feel like that is what one should look for in an agent - smart, detail-oriented, doesn't leave you hanging, high integrity, and honest.

— Sai S. | Seller

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I could not have asked for a better real estate agent than Amanda. She was outstanding in every way. I just sold my house in Marin off-market and Amanda made the whole process as easy as possible for me. She listened to me and heard my needs, at the same time sharing her vast knowledge and experience in real estate that I don't have. I particularly liked her emphasis on communication with the client and ...

— Carolyn S. | Seller

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Amanda saved us time and energy with valuable advice on how we should focus our search and how we might expect the bidding processes to go for several properties that we were interested in. She is intelligent, experienced and well-connected to San Francisco and its housing market.

— Paul & Joan | Buyer

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Amanda is amazing! She is patient, genuine and easy to work with. She took the time to get to know me and my situation. I consulted with her as a potential condo seller and though it was a favorable market, she could sense I wasn’t ready and advised me to wait. I’m so glad I listened to her because it turned out to be the best decision for me and my family. She could have taken advantage of the situation...

I cannot say enough good things about Amanda. Smart, honest, candid, prompt, and fun. She combines a deep knowledge of all of San Francisco and the Bay Area with top-notch real estate smarts and a sharp eye for what is or isn't salient in disclosures and real life.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Amanda is helpful and thorough with a warm demeanor. She takes her responsibilities seriously. She is willing to make the extra effort to coordinate contractors and make suggestions for improving the look and feel of the home. Her marketing presentation is unmatched. We lived in the house for over 35 years so she was empathetic and caring to the emotional changes that we were experiencing as well experie...

— Fred & Ellen | Seller

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

My partner and I had wanted to purchase a house for many years. Every few months we’d start looking at places, then quickly become overwhelmed, and pause our search for another few months. We met a lot of agents and while many of them seemed good enough, we never felt comfortable enough to work with one and commit to buying a place, until we met Amanda. When we first met her, we spoke for only 10 minutes...

— Jimmie & Ashley

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

My husband and I worked with Amanda to sell our home in San Francisco and buy a bigger home for our growing family. We got to know about Amanda as she had sold 2 properties on our street in the last 3 months. We spoke with several agents regarding selling our property as it was not straight forward and she was the only one who gave us a thorough presentation of what we could expect with our house sale an...

— Anju & Hari | Seller

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

What can I say about Amanda - there are too many good things to say! We worked with Amanda to sell our home in San Francisco, and buy a new home in Marin. So many moving parts to these deals, and all within a tight timeframe. She could not have been more helpful or proactive throughout this process. She was always reachable and on top of everything - thinking about upcoming things that needed to get done...

— Celeste & Dan | Seller

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

We interviewed a few agents including Amanda early in our process of selling and buying a home in SF. Both my wife and I fully agreed that Amanda was the best person for us to work with. She is a native of San Francisco, was extremely knowledgeable about the process, answered all our questions thoroughly, and most importantly was patient with us as our end-to-end process took about 11 months. Amanda help...

— Chad & Kristina | Seller

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I would give 6 stars if I could! As novices who have rented forever and really didn't know what we were doing, we needed a lot of hand-holding and guidance throughout the process. We started out with a very wide geo area, unsure of the size of the house, proximity to the city vs nature etc. She helped us tremendously by reflecting back on her observations, never judging or pushing, but assisting us in so...

— Lisa & Damon

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Amanda helped us very green first-time buyers buy our first condo in the crazy SF market. Amanda is honest, down-to-earth, approachable, professional, fun, friendly, super-communicative and responsive, and at the end of the day, actually cares about you as a person, not as just another number or client. She is a great listener and very quickly found out our style and gave us numerous matches that fit our...

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Amanda is an amazing real estate agent. She is a true pleasure to work with, as she has her clients’ best interests in mind. She is looking to build relationships, not just sell homes. She is a true partner in the real estate process. When I was looking to buy, she really listened to what I had to say and only showed me homes that fit my needs. She is incredibly thorough–she always found EVERY possibly o...

— Jeanine D.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

We worked with Amanda for almost a year and have nothing but amazing things to say about her. She is hard working, so responsive to emails and very proactive. As a San Francisco native, I trusted her opinion since we were fairly new to SF. We have removed ourselves from the crazy SF market but when we are ready to buy, she will be our real estate agent.

— Natasha D.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Amanda is a great Realtor®. Being a native she knows the city well. She worked with me for the better part of a year as my buyer's agent. On several occasions, as I came in from out of town, she arranged busy tours so we could see a lot of places and make the most of the time. She quickly narrowed down our search to the essential places that were within my budget and gave me a good "lay of the land". Whe...
