Just Sold - 424 Cayuga Avenue - Buyer Represented at $1,050,000! Belated congratulations to S & G on the purchase of their new home. I knew from my first phone call with these guys that I was going to love working with them, and I was not disappointed! They were so much fun and worked very hard to find the right place. 424 Cayuga had been in the same family for many, many years and needs a little love, but these guys loved the bones of the home and were ready for the challenge. S/G & fur baby Lucy - I really hope you enjoy your new home! I can't wait to see how it evolves over time....congratulations again, please don't be strangers!

Just Sold - 1800 Turk #203 - Seller Represented at $1,150,000. I'm a little delayed in posting my congratulations to client Z&C on the fab outcome of the sale of their home. They had bought this property as an REO in 2012. (And no, that's not an Oreo cookie, Ben Carson!) My how times have changed! We received 8 offers, and the property sold 35% over asking. Z/C - I'm thrilled for you as you make your transition to Oregon and hope that your new house works out well. The buyers seem like super nice folks, too - hopefully the cycle of 1800 Turk #203 as a happy home continues!

Just Sold - 122 Fair Oaks - Buyer represented at $1,760,000. Heartfelt congratulations to J&M on their BEAUTIFUL new home! This wonderful couple closed on their home in March, but this feels like the more appropriate time to post about it, as they are finally moving in this week (after kindly offering the sellers a rent-back, so their kids could finish up the school year before moving). After suffering a few SF real estate heartbreaks and near misses, we swooped in very quickly with a strong pre-emptive offer and took this beauty off the market. We all seemed to know that this was "the one" - and I really think/hope that they will be happy her for many years to come! Congrats, J&M - I so loved working with with you!

Just Sold - 1 Hawthorne, Unit 10 E - Buyer represented at $1,570,000. BIG congratulations to LD on her new home. I first met this fabulous buyer in Jan, 2016. The search morphed over time, and there were some big breaks from the market, but L came at her search with renewed vigor this year, and she finally found the perfect spot at One Hawthorne, a luxury downtown building that's well-suited to her lifestyle. While I usually don't include photos of clients, these were too fun not to share (with permission, of course). Congrats again, Linda - I'm so happy for you!

I am proud to be on the board of a truly amazing organization called SFCASA.

Hop on the auction site and put your best bids out there for some amazing items. C'mon - do it for the kids!
