Lynn Finnegan

Coming from a background in kitchen/bath design and sales turned out to be the perfect segue into real estate. Even at 11 years old, I was drawing floor plans and  elevations for houses  and cutting out furniture from catalogues to place in my creations. My passion has evolved into helping individuals and families obtain homeownership and create wealth through a tried and true investment, which is a very fulfilling job for me.

I hesitantly moved to San Francisco in 1997 after marrying my husband, Tom. I didn't know the city that well, and it seemed so complex and intimidating. Now, three daughters, two houses, and 20+ years later, I can't imagine living anywhere else. Every neighborhood has its unique qualities, and I find nothing is ever more than a few minutes away. So, it is only natural for me to have a clear picture of the local market.

Since becoming an agent in 2004, I have had the opportunity to work with buyers and sellers in an array of transactions which has further strengthened my negotiating and marketing skills. My experience covers single-family homes, condos, TIC's and multifamily properties. I have worked with individuals selling investment properties, as well as their family home of 40 years. I always seek different perspectives from my fellow colleagues with their diverse real estate backgrounds and specialties. But what really sets me apart is my ability to interpret my clients' needs through frequent and thoughtful communication, my attention to detail, and my tireless efforts to help them reach their real estate goals. I am proud to provide extraordinary service and exceptional results.

Testimonials

★★★★★
"Lynn made the experience of our first home purchase impossibly stellar. While we didn’t know Lynn personally, she came highly-recommended to us by 5 other friends who had successfully purchased homes from her over the years. She’s so knowledgeable about the market and skilled at actively listening that by the time we met for our second tour, it felt like she’d known us for years and knew exactly what we were looking for. Additionally, Lynn has an incredible rolodex of trusted resources from her agent community [we purchased off-market], financiers, movers and so many others that even further elevated our experience. The next time we’re in the market we wouldn’t even consider another agent [and look forward to seeing her socially between now and then!]. We couldn’t highly-recommend her enough!" - Andy E.

" Expect the unexpected from Lynn. As an investor, board member, wife and mother, I interact with a wide range of people on a day-to-day basis. Lynn is someone whose knowledge of real estate markets, attention to detail, and execution puts her in the top 3% of people with whom I have ever worked. When Lynn takes over the job, you can rest assured you have moved an item off your to do list – something truly appreciated by this busy, working mom. At the same, when it comes to making a decision, Lynn is available for valuable strategic discussions to maximize value. I recommend Lynn unequivocally." - Kate O.

★★★★★
" Lynn is an incredible agent. She came recommended to us from good friends, and we recommended her on to other friends of ours -- we all had fantastic experiences. She was a true partner in our hunt for our first house - in the country's most competitive market for buyers. She has extensive connections, a great reputation, is down-to-earth (every agent we met said they "knew of her" and heard great things - but she never bragged about the kind of access she has), approachable, and frankly fun to be around. She has a knack for understanding what you're looking for and a true passion for her work. She made it look easy, but it's clear she put a lot of research and work into every offer we made. She proactively flagged issues for us, and even called the bank to expedite a loan approval. Thanks to her, we're in a house we love. If we ever sell this place (and we surely will), guess who we'll be listing with. " - Eshanthi R.

" Working with Lynn was an absolute pleasure! This was the first time we sold a home and Lynn provided the perfect mix of support, listening/responding to our priorities, and guidance informed by her tremendous professional experience. She was always available to answer questions and help us stay calm throughout the process. We are thrilled with the outcome of our sale and would recommend Lynn to anyone looking to sell property in San Francisco. " - Jessamine F.

★★★★★
" Lynn is the consummate professional who quickly assessed our priorities and aligned the strategy accordingly. We were selling our property and the strategy on how to position it and what we could expect for offers. She was right on target and moved quickly to help us get the property online as we were looking to buy at the same time. She met all her timelines and activated her network so that we accepted an offer over asking before the first . Lynn's follow up is second to none and her ability to listen to concerns, offer opinions and then step back is a gift to her clients. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a home." - Patricia L.

★★★★★
" Lynn is fabulous to work with! We just closed on our fourth transaction in the City with her and she just keeps getting better and better. She made everything so easy for us and was so supportive and helpful along the way. She is extremely trustworthy, organized, communicative and is just a delight. She goes over and above leading up to and then following each real estate decision. She even made sure our move went smoothly and helped us get set up and connected to vendors to help spruce up our new home. She has become a real friend and she has done fantastic work with the friends I have referred to her, as well. Plus, all the other brokers know and love her, which I honestly believe really helped us along the way. " - Heidi P

Lynn really listened to what we're looking for and she showed us a plethora of options so that we can make a smarter and more informed decision. Lynn is so knowledgeable about the different neighborhoods and things to look out for, that we never once worried about making a wrong move. Buying a was a big deal to us and we feel very lucky to have found Lynn as our agent to guide us through the end-to-end process." - Jose A.

★★★★★
" Lynn has been absolutely fantastic to work with and we recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking to buy a home in SF. Lynn is incredibly knowledgeable about the real estate market, the inventory, and the process. She guided us through every step of home buying with ease and made herself continually available to us even after the purchase. She is truly invested in her clients and clearly enjoys what she does. She was respectful of Covid precautions and we felt that we were in great, safe hands the whole time." - Martha E.
