A Prep Plan That Pays For Itself
I've managed full-scale renovations — envelope work, waterproofing, electrical, finish upgrades — working directly with specialty contractors and industry suppliers. I'll walk your property and tell you what to fix, what to skip, what it'll cost, and what the return is. Not theory — relationships and experience I use every day.

About
Who I Am
6th generation San Franciscan. Licensed broker. Hands-on investor. I've worked institutional acquisitions, syndication, and brokerage — and I've personally renovated buildings as an owner-builder, living on-site during the process. When I advise clients, it's not theory. I've done the work.

The Process
How It Works
Once you decide to move forward, here's what happens.
Understand the Property
I start with a full assessment — valuation, condition, competitive positioning. If there are tenants, title issues, or deferred maintenance, I find them here. Not after we're in contract.

Build the Strategy
Based on the assessment, I put together a plan: what to fix, what to skip, how to price it, and how to take it to market. Every dollar of prep has a clear return.

Not every property should hit the MLS on day one. I choose the right approach — off-market, pocket listing, or full exposure — based on what gets you the strongest result.

Frequently asked questions
What does a consultation include?
A free 30-minute call where I assess your situation, give you a realistic valuation range, and outline the smartest path forward. No pitch. No pressure. Just the numbers.
How are you different from a typical listing agent?
Most agents list your property and hope for the best. I start with a full analysis — comps, condition, tenant dynamics, tax implications — and build a strategy before anything goes to market. But what really sets me apart is execution. I've personally managed renovation scope, coordinated subcontractors, and overseen pre-sale prep as an owner-builder. I understand construction budgets, permit timelines, and what improvements actually move the needle on price. It's end-to-end: analysis, strategy, prep, marketing, and negotiation — all from one person who's done every piece of it firsthand.
I inherited a property — where do I start?
With a call. Inherited properties come with their own challenges — Prop 19 deadlines, deferred maintenance, sibling dynamics. I'll help you understand your options before you make any decisions.
Do you work with buyers?
Yes — primarily in San Francisco, where I know the neighborhoods block by block. I also represent buyers on investment properties across the Bay Area, including multifamily and value-add opportunities in Oakland, Marin, and the Peninsula. My focus is expanding, but SF is home base.
What about tenant-occupied properties?
This is an area I know well. I've worked extensively with rent-controlled apartment buildings — managing tenant relations, navigating SF's rent ordinance, and understanding how occupancy impacts value. I've been hands-on with tenant buyout negotiations, which gives me a real understanding of how tenants think and what motivates them. I won't give legal advice — that's for your attorney — but I'll help you see the full picture and build a strategy around it.
What areas do you cover?
San Francisco is home — I grew up in the Richmond District and know the west side block by block. I also work across Marin, Oakland, and the broader Bay Area.
Can you help me figure out what to fix before selling?
This is one of the things I do best. I've renovated a building myself as an owner-builder — no general contractor, managing every sub and every dollar. That means I can walk your property and tell you exactly what's worth doing, what's a waste of money, and what the realistic cost and timeline look like. Most agents guess at this. I've lived it.
What happens after I hire you?
We move fast. I build a prep plan, coordinate any improvements, line up staging and photography, and develop a go-to-market strategy tailored to your property and timeline. Once we're live, I manage showings, track buyer feedback, and negotiate offers with your goals — not just the highest number, but the best terms — front and center. You'll know what's happening at every step.
