Martin was an amazing agent in our home-buying process. He kept coming back to us with home suggestions based on our needs until we found the right place for us! He was patient and always calm yet communicative. He had an extensive local knowledge, shared and discussed the different steps of the process with us as needed, was always available and responsive, and helped us negotiate when we requested it. We are so grateful for his service and support!

Martin served as our listing agent and was able to provide an off market offer within 24 hours. This wasnt just a transaction - he found the right buyer for the given situation. Martin was able to arrange a rent back agreement while we searched for a new home. He walked us through the entire process, step by step with patience and grace. His mild mannered temperament provides a calm assurance in potentially stressful, uncertain moments. We were so grateful for the front end of our selling / buying scenario that it only felt natural and seamless to have Martin also serve with our search for a new home. Shopping and buying in San Francisco can be off putting. Being a native San Franciscan and understanding the nuances and subtleties is key to be a successful buying agent. There are a myriad of SF realtors that dont truly know the city - history, temperament and rules - written or otherwise. Martin is personally and professionally familiar with all of it - and that makes all the difference.After acclimating with the buying market and getting in the game, we eventually found our new home. Martin was instrumental and served as an all star quarterback managing the seller, lender, title company and city. All in from the moment we first discussed our vision to the day we moved into our new home was just over three months. Martin is a shooting star in an oversaturated market - catch him if you can!

As a first time home buyer Martin made the entire process an excellent experience. Hes Very educated with the ins & outs of home buying & selling which made me very confident to have him as my real estate agent. As a first time home buyer I was pretty clueless with the process and Martin made it a goal to always keep me updated on any changes or paperwork delays. He kept in contact even after the sell went through to ensure everything was up to my liking. I highly recommend Martin to any level experienced person looking to buy or sell a house in the bay area.

Martin responds quickly and works at lightening speed. He's incredible smart, thoughtful, and well-informed. As first time homebuyers, he did a fantastic job educating us throughout the process and acted as a calm grounding force. It felt like we were in the drivers seat with an expert guide by our side.
