I recently helped my client, Jonathan, buy a home perfect for him in Eureka Valley. This home at 204 Grand View Avenue is very tastefully renovated inside with a modern look to its chef’s kitchen, two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The living room has a cozy fireplace and views of the Bay. The back patio and terraced garden are a delight and exactly where my client wants to entertain his friends. He thanked me for helping him find his first …

Would you like to find the perfect home for family living? Peggy Economos and I just brought on the market a pristine Victorian home with a modern flair in Pacific Heights! It has 5 bedrooms and 5 ½ baths. It is perfect for family living with its spaciousness, lovely outdoor area for barbecuing, and two offices with built-in desks and cabinets. The media room is a great place to escape to with a bottle of wine from the temperature-controlled wine …
In the middle of this crazy SF market, over the last six months I worked with a nice couple and their two children who were looking for their dream home – a 4-bedroom home on the west side of the city, mostly in the Sunset and the Parkside. But as they looked, even with a healthy budget of $2M, they thought that this was not likely to happen so they started to focus on 3-bedroom homes. However, even then many of the homes they saw that …
I recently closed on a listing in Pacific Heights. My listing at 2878 Sacramento Street, Unit 6, was a serene top floor light-filled one bedroom plus condo filled with charm. It was in a great Pacific Heights location! My client had lived there for over 20 years and while she loved living there she was ready to make a move. It had an eat-in chef’s kitchen with cherry cabinets, granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, including a Viking range. It …
I recently had the pleasure of helping a great couple, Rhea and Bobby, purchase a luxury 3 bedroom, 4 bathroom unit at 3053 California, in Pacific Heights after a long search during the pandemic. We went together to every appointment until they found a place they love. It has a great layout, high-end finishes and is spacious at 2186 square feet. It was originally priced at $2,095,000 but we were able to get it for substantially less. In this overheated …
“With her 20 years of experience, attention to detail, and legal background, Carol is an excellent choice for your real estate needs, but the reason she stands out above all others is her character. Working through this process with Carol felt like we had an experienced teammate, and more importantly, a friend who always had our best interests in mind.” One of my favorite things is helping buyers get into their first home. My second favorite thing is when they …
I like to keep tabs on my neighborhood, Presidio Heights. I live not far from the Presidio Gate and it has been a real lifesaver during this time of Covid to walk into the Presidio and down to Crissy Field and arrive at the Bay. I never tire of looking out at Alcatraz or the Golden Gate Bridge. It has been a good escape during this time. I sit on the Board for the Presidio Heights Association of Neighbors; it …
Last year when people asked me about the real estate market, I told them it was a great time to buy. You don’t often see a buyer’s market in San Francisco but last year was it. Condo prices were down, particularly in elevator buildings in South of Market, and homes, while holding their value, were not appreciating like they had in the past. Some people told me they would wait until next year as they thought the market would continue …
If you have been thinking about buying a pied-á-terre in San Francisco, now is the time! According to the Multiple Listing Service (which tracks properties for sale and that have been sold) there has been a decline of 8 to 10 percent in the median price of condos between the 4th quarters of 2019 and 2020. I recently represented a couple who lives on the Peninsula and they were hoping to buy a condo in the city. What they didn’t realize …
Do you know an owner-occupant investor who wants a great deal? My new listing with John Lukrich of my office is a prime mixed-use Edwardian two-unit building at 6038-6040 Geary Blvd. in the Central Richmond. It is listed at $1,495,000. Above is a home-like residential unit which has 4 bedrooms, classic formal living and dining rooms and one full bath and a water closet. The lower commercial unit is occupied by a florist and has one bath with a back …
