"My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Cheryl this summer and it's hard to imagine the sales process going any better. She was great at setting realistic expectations, managing the process, and being spot on with her responsiveness. We felt we had a professional who always had our best interests in mind, and we highly recommend Cheryl for your listing." - Mike V.

"Cheryl was highly recommended to us by another realtor who does not work in this area. She was absolutely great to work with throughout our entire process of purchasing a condo in San Francisco. She knows her business, she knows the area, and she was 100% responsive to all our queries. She recommended great people to work with for financing, inspections, etc. Her company uses current technology to make things like getting signatures super efficient and easy for the customer. She is personable and professional and I could not recommend her more highly." - C. M.

"Cheryl represented me and helped me get my dream studio apartment in the time frame that I wanted (approx. 1-2 months) in the location I wanted amongst 8 other offers. How? With her expert negotiation and marketing skills. During escrow, she was very well-organized with all the documentation and was very responsive to text/email/phone. Also, she helped me a lot in terms of customer service, going above and beyond re: recommendations/referrals, getting me keys, etc. She was referred to me by a dear friend and I'd like to pay it forward by highly recommending her to you." - Geraldine T.

"We worked with Cheryl recently on our first home purchase. Cheryl is a very involved and knowledgeable agent. She went above and beyond in being present at every showing, including open houses, we were interested in. She provided her opinion on the pros and cons of the house and location. Her knowledge about the neighborhoods in the bay area helped us evaluate our options and tradeoffs in an informed manner in a market as competitive as the Bay Area. From her extensive experience, she was able to give us a good sense of cosmetic verses expensive/time consuming modifications a house would require. We especially appreciated that Cheryl was patient with us during our buying process and did not in any way pressure us into a decision. She was supportive and provided her professional opinion and helped us put forward a bid we were comfortable with. Cheryl uses DocuSign which makes the bidding process seamless and easy. In addition, her great network of general contractors, pest control experts, mortgage brokers and other resources were a big help to us especially since we were new to the area." - R. H.

"We are happy to be writing this review from our new home! Cheryl came highly recommended and lived up to her great reputation. Cheryl provides a special balance of calm guidance and aggressive work ethic that is rare to find. During our search to find our home, she was always patient in providing her support and never made us feel pressured. She answered all our questions, no matter how silly or trivial. She even removed the stress of accommodating our busy schedules and work travel by providing documents online and arranging meetings in person or over the phone. Cheryl also comes with her amazing resources. Her recommendations for home inspectors, loan offices, handymen, house cleaners, and electricians were invaluable. Looking back, having Cheryl and this entire team of experts made our experience wonderful. All this resulted in closing our new home even faster than planned! We consider Cheryl our real estate agent, but also our friend! " - Michael H.

"Cheryl worked tirelessly throughout our multi-month process, always adapting to whatever pace our schedules accommodated - never pressuring when we got busy and always ready with homes to tour when we had a moment. She did a great jib understanding our complex needs and fielding opportunities from us or sourcing her own sites and turning around disclosure packet review on a dime so we didn't need to thumb through hundreds of pages of documents ourselves. Her keen use of tech meant she was always just a text away and we actually closed on the house in our phones using Docusign. This was a nice touch. She handled all discussions with contractors, escrow, title company, seller's agent, and our loan provider with aplomb and didn't just vanish when the same went through but continues to help ensure that we are getting settled in and making this the home we really want to live in. It was a long journey to get our home but we love it and it is thanks to Cheryl." - David W.

"Words cannot express how happy my partner and I are with finding Cheryl. Moving to the Bay Area from out of state, we were facing the daunting task of finding a home in a very tight housing market in an unknown region, but Cheryl guided us efficiently and expertly through the whole home buying process.

Cheryl's vast knowledge of the market and region helped us immensely with determining what sort of home to bid on and when. We also quickly learned that Cheryl was a "one stop shop" - whether it was dealing with finances, inspections, or reviewing HOA paperwork - each person on Cheryl's team was thorough, diligent, and a pleasure to deal with.

Another joy of working with Cheryl was her use of electronic communications. Both my partner and I are "techies", so we really appreciated this aspect. Cheryl was very responsive via email, SMS texting, or phone calls. She also utilized an electronic document signing service, which made the huge task of document reviewing and signing a breeze. We could even review and sign documents while away from home on our iPad's.

We were not new to the home buying experience. This is the first time we both felt extremely happy with our Realtor when it came down to the negotiations. Cheryl knocked the ball right out of the park.

We can't recommend Cheryl enough. Should you find a need for a Realtor in the Bay Area, look no further than to Cheryl. Your expectations will be exceeded." - Warren P.

"We bought our home through Cheryl and she has continued to be an incredible resource for us years after the sale, so we would highly recommend Cheryl's services. We are experienced home buyers (having owned 6 other homes) so we knew the process, but Cheryl helped us get our house when the market was very competitive, with multiple bids, where getting the house ultimately came down to the experience of a good realtor, thus making all of the difference. (we live on the peninsula with one of the best school districts, so it's a highly sought after area).

We've always depended on her for various contacts for contractors, inspectors, and the like. (all great contractors too) She recently helped us very quickly find a very specialized plumber to come out on short notice after calling countless plumbing services who did not perform this type of service, and was very helpful and knowledgeable about the entire process, and what we might need to pass inspection with the city as well.

Cheryl's website says, "I do more" and indeed she does. She is a wonderful Realtor, who I can say we would highly recommend to anyone who is looking to buy, or sell a home. We will certainly use Cheryl's services in the future as well!" - Patty A.

I was referred to Cheryl from a realtor friend, which is a compliment in itself.

From the moment we met Cheryl she was a total professional, well prepared and incredibly accommodating to our requests.
