What clients say about this agent....
Michael has helped our family purchase multiple properties over the past few years. He is very knowledgeable about the current real estate trends in the Bay Area, responsive to all our inquiries even after normal working hours, and has always come through with the winning strategy. In our most recent transaction, Michael showed us a property, worked with the seller's agent to get us more time to write up our offer (we discovered that offers were due at noon the next day!), and gave us solid tips to help get our offer accepted all within 24 hours of contacting him! We can't thank him and his team enough for their tireless efforts on every transaction and would highly recommend his services to everyone!
Michael is very professional and responsive. He has helped tremendously in getting a good tenant and eventually a good buyer of the unit. He acted as both my property manager (initially) and leasing/sales broker. He attended to all condo concerns/repairs with high priority.
I used Michael as my selling agent and was extremely pleased with the results he was able to deliver. More importantly I always felt he had my best interest in mind which I'm sure you know is not always the case in this industry. He is sharp, extremely friendly, ethical and was on top of everything every step of tne way. He did a great job and I will defintely go back to him for future transactions.
Michael is the prime example of professionalism with a personal touch. I recommended him to my best friend and a family member, before we even closed! Without him, his hard work, and diligence, I know it would have definitely impacted our offer being accepted, and our smooth closure. He took mental notes of why my husband and I passed on houses, remembered it, and used it for future listings. He is extremely thorough, and proactive. He was patient, ethical, and truthful. Michael's thoughtfulness showed by him doing things before we even asked for it. He's responsive, and did things (e.g. called, sent docs, etc.) when he said he would. He's spoiled me for other agents, and I wouldn't think about using anyone else if I were to look again in SF or the Peninsula. Anyone would be lucky to have Michael on their team.
Mr. Soon is the most talented real estate professional I have ever worked with. I have bought and sold a lot of houses. My prior impression of real estate agents is that they get paid a lot of money to put the house on multiple listing and nothing more. Mr. Soon is the exception. When it came time to sell the family house which had been in the family for 70 plus years, I need somebody who could help get the house prepped for sale. It need renovations; I needed cash for renovations. I need some to manage what should be left as is and what should be renovated. I live on the east coast and needed someone to manage. Who do I call for anything. Mr. Soon had all the answers. He has the contacts to get things done. As far as marketing, Mr. Soon is the real pro. Photos, staging, videos, printed materials, or whatever, Mr. Soon did everything first class. We not only sold our house, but we got nearly 25% over the asking price. Had I tried to do any of these things on my own, I would have been stuck in the weeds. Mr. Soon earned every penny of his commission. And he changed my impression of what a real estate professional is.
Michael Soon is the most hands on agent I've worked with. He not only acted as my agent, but also as an advisor, Project Manager and handy man. He literally took care of all of my needs and made the home selling process much easier. Due to his expertise, we sold my place at a record high for that development. He has a solid network of vendors he works with (painters, cleaning service, etc) so getting the right referral is simple.I highly recommend Michael as he exceeded my expectations. He went above and beyond time and time again and he is trustworthy, knowledgable and proactive.

Mike Soon did an incredible job with my home in Millbrae, managing the entire process, from hiring contractors, to overseeing all necessary upgrades, to finally listing and selling the property for well over asking. Working on a very tight schedule, Mike was knowledgeable, diligent, thorough, and always optimistic. And he communicated what was happening every step of the way. He made a daunting job seem easy. Id highly recommend Mike to anyone selling a home.
Michael helped me sell my duplex in SF. He is a true local voice that speaks the SF real estate language like few agents can. Michael was prompt to response to every question I had about he process. He was diligent to prepare and recommend the best steps to prepare a successful listing. Michael is an experienced agent that will fight on your behalf ferociously while still maintaining a very approachable stance.
Highly recommended. Project managed to get my home up to current market condition (working with contractors and inspectors) with minimal inputs. Sold my home for the asking price. Saved me a lot of time.
