SHANDRIKA'S REAL ESTATE, STAGING & INTERIOR DESIGN
Real Estate Agents in San Francisco, CA

Candace and Keith Nordstrom, Marin County Realtors
Real Estate Agents in San Francisco, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 March 2019
“My wife and I have moved six times in our lives. We have dealt with some very good Realtors, but Candace and Keith are by far the best we've ever had the pleasure to have worked with. They are both extremely knowledgeable of the market and were able to steer us in a direction that needed up meeting us $100,000 more than we initially thought we could get. Candace's attention to detail, ability to recommend upgrades without breaking the bank -- i.e. identifying what should be done to sell the house, vs. spending money needlessly on non- essential items -- and network of repair and design professionals made us feel extremely comfortable during what can be a stressful progress. In addition, her marketing techniques, which included staging, professional photos (including from a drone!), ad placements, etc., really put our house air the top of the list. Her husband Keith is also a secret weapon -- he and his team go through the inside and outside of the house and make the repairs that are needed -- and that an inspector would call out. He provides his services as part of their offering for up to 50 hours, which saved us thousands of dollars if we had gone to a third party contractor/repair person. They took care of all of the inspections up front and did a proactive inspection so that the entire deal was "clean" for prospective buyers. Last bu not least, 10 days before closing, we had a major water issue when our washer leaked water all over the wood floors and under the house. They both jumped on it immediately and organized a team to take care of all of the damage, including drying the floors, replacing wet insulation and removing standing water under the house, preparing the food floors, etc. We were able to close and the buyers were very satisfied with the condition of the home. I cannot stress what a great job the Nordstroms did for us from beginning to end.”
Brian Chancellor, Sereno Group
Real Estate Agents in San Francisco, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars27 June 2013
“Brian is a dedicated professional who deeply understands both the economic and emotional components of residential real estate. Brian's core value system, work ethic, and approach as a trusted advisor makes him so valuable particularly to first time home owners. His network of realtors, contractors, lenders, brokers, and other folks connected to the real estate industry makes him so indispensable to a wide variety of clientele. Brian is not afraid to stand strong for his clients but also give those same clients insightful advice to help them avoid pitfalls and make well-informed decisions. With Brian, the client is ultimately in the driver's seat but his broad knowledge and proven track record for happy, life-long clients separates him from most.”

Dale + Alla Real Estate Team - Compass
Real Estate Agents in San Francisco, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars22 April 2015
“One of my wife's friends spoke so highly of Dale, that is was a no brainer to hire him to help us find our first home in San Francisco. We are so grateful that we did. Dale is a pleasure to work with -- easy going, responsive, knowledgeable and honest. We felt that he had our best interests in mind and never felt pressured. Dale ended up finding us the perfect home in Bernal Heights and we will be working with him again when we move to a larger home.”

Dirk Kinley - Climb Real Estate Group
Real Estate Agents in San Francisco, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars2 January 2014
“We were looking for help with selling our Inner Mission condominium in San Francisco. After many phone interviews with various real estate agents we ended up interviewing 3 real estate agents face to face. We picked Dirk not because he was the slickest salesperson -but rather he is polished, genuine and smart. We were floored that he had gone to MIT and Kellogg. It was the first agent that we felt was someone we could relate to. What this meant for us is we could tell that he had our best interest at heart. He's just that type of guy and his work as a real estate agent reflects it. The best part is that be didn't ever pressure us to take an offer and was always trying to strategically better our position, not just trying to plod along and close the sale like the average agent. Kudos Dirk!!”
Sue Schultes - Compass Real Estate Group
Real Estate Agents in San Francisco, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 May 2013
“Sue and Mike have helped us buy, and four years later, sell a house. They are wonderful, I recommend them highly. They were incredibly professional, organized and knowledgable. Sue was our main contact. She was easy to communicate with and kept us posted along the different steps. Through her knowlegde of San Francisco and SF connections, she helped with the entire process. She recommended people to help with moving in (and out). She made helpful recommendations on movers, handymen, and help with staging. We have since used realtors on the peninsula, outside of Sue and Mike's area, and we only wish that they represented there as well.”

A property sale in San Francisco, CA can be a tense, thrilling, and exhausting experience - often all at once! One thing you can be sure of, a successful home purchase or sale nearly always starts with a good real estate agent or broker.

Real Estate is a complex and dynamic area of work that demands experts to stay informed about rules and regulations as well as the San Francisco, CA market. As you can imagine, agents and brokers vary as much as the properties they sell. You'll need to be as savvy in selecting a realtor as they are in getting you the best price.

What Does an Agent or Broker Do?


Although the terms “agent” and “broker” often are used interchangeably, they’re not the same thing. Generally, a broker must have more specialised education as well as licensing, and as a result is legally authorised to execute a real estate transaction. Brokers usually play a more administrative role in the real estate process. An agent, by contrast, is a salesperson hired by a broker to interact with and handle the legwork for the clients.

When you're looking to buy a home, a buyer’s agent represents a home buyer or seller in a real estate transaction. A buyer’s agent will find San Francisco property listings that match your needs, works with the seller’s agent to schedule showings and accompanies you on visits to tour the home. If you’re interested in the house, the agent handles price negotiations and other terms of the sale, and coordinates the appropriate paperwork.

If you are engaged in a home sale, a seller’s agent will help you determine a listing price for a San Francisco, CA property and can suggest repairs, upgrades and staging ideas to boost the home’s appeal. He or she is in charge of marketing the house to prospective buyers and other agents through signage, websites, print ads, open houses and other methods. As with a buyer’s agent, a seller’s agent represents you in negotiating the sale.

Questions to ask a prospective agent or broker:


  • How long have you been in the business?
  • How long have you worked in this area?
  • Do you work full time or part time in this business?
  • Do you represent buyers or sellers exclusively, or both?
  • What are your professional affiliations?
  • For sellers: How will you market my home?
  • For buyers: How will you find homes that might interest me?
  • Have you had recent sales in the neighborhoods that I might interested in?
  • Can you provide me with references?
  • What license(s) do you have?
  • How do you charge?
  • What do your services include?
  • Will I be working with anyone else?
