Raffi overlooking the Sunset FIRST-TIME BUYERS WIN WONDERFUL WEST PORTAL HOME Kevin+Jonathan were so great from the very start! They taught us so much in such a short period of time, and when were ready, they were amazing. They helped us feel confident that we had a chance and shepherded us through the process.

Kevin reviewed our home of choice and helped us understand what might need work, he annotated documents to help us understand what we were reading and to point out things he didn’t want us to miss. We are happily making plans for our new home!

The experience was excellent and we heartily recommend Kevin+Jonathan.

Hello. We’re Kevin Ho + Jonathan McNarry and we do real estate in San Francisco. We love what we do because we’re doing what comes natural to us — figuring out how connect the right buyers and sellers together by understanding what’s valuable to each and how we can maximize that connection.

With more than 25 years’ experience, hundreds of millions worth of properties sold, we have the knowhow, peer reputation, and temperament best suited for this career. Our talents and skill spill over in all that we do; our outcomes and happy clients have propelled us into the top percentage of San Francisco agents for many years now.

What’s more, instead of jumping from brokerage to brokerage, we’ve been at the largest, locally owned and operated brokerage in San Francisco with deep ties to the LGBT and development communities (among more) — Vanguard Properties — since the start.  

We offer unsurpassed, full-service home purchase and sales services. We know how important information, dedication and perspective can be in making these big life decisions. Getting to know our clients and understanding the stories that bring us together is deeply rewarding. Our love of people, home and design combine so very well with our attention to detail and genuine enthusiasm for real estate. The results — a dedicated, repeat client base all over the Bay Area who have succeeded in this most-demanding and discerning of housing markets both as buyers and sellers. We do everything we possibly can to ensure our clients’ goals are met and surpassed.

We do so much for our clients in many ways that they may never realize, effortlessly ensuring our clients’ position and interests are protected as we handle the many complexities of real estate on their behalf. Our clients will certainly notice our efforts in our results, though; leading up to that, we make a point communicating, responding to (and remembering) client preferences and aim for success in everything.

Our clients come from all walks of life and are as diverse as the City in terms of experience, budgets, circumstances and goals. As varied as our clients are, they do have at least one thing in common — real estate success thanks to hiring Kevin+Jonathan (and Raffi). Take a look around our extensive website where you’ll get to know more about us, hear from our clients and see what full service and in-depth market knowledge really means.  

As for our own story: we are partners in life and in business. One of us is from Iowa, the other is from the UK. One has been an ICU nurse, respiratory therapist and paramedic among more. The other, an attorney, mediator and reporter who grew up in the family’s Chinese restaurant. (We’ll let you guess who did what). But in addition to being licensed real estate professionals, we’re dog dads to Mr. Raffi, a former Guide Dog for the Blind dog from Marin County, we’ve been renters who are now San Francisco homeowners in who did that massive down-to-the-studs, dream home renovation. We know and live our craft deeply.

What Sets You Apart From All the Other Agents in San Francisco?


When you hire us, you get to work with us — two co-equal, top-producing agents who the ones actually doing the work for you (not some junior ‘team member’).

Our business has grown by leaps and bounds every year we’ve started doing this.

Other agents want to work with us and our clients. Time and time again, we’re told that our clients’ offer may not be the highest, but that our offer package and presentation is the “poster child” of what offers should look like.

When working with Kevin+Jonathan, you may expect clear communication, superior customer service and the very best outcomes possible.

Our favorite part of this experience is seeing the huge smiles on our clients’ faces when we hand keys over to their new homes or when we tell our seller clients that we’ve closed and at (yet another) record sale price.

We get that you may be busy, or that you want to investigate the market and its inventory before really committing to buying something. That or a property’s propaganda video isn’t as illuminating as you would hope. That or you are wondering how we look at houses/properties. All this or that the agent you were working with never bothered to get back to you about X property whereas we already made a video of it. 

In any case, we have made hundreds of walk-through videos of properties of all kinds in San Francisco on our channel. Better yet, some of those videos will feature Mr. Raffi.

Time for Better Buying

And exhale. We know that buying a home is something that’s life-changing for sure. That’s why we’re here to help you get to there from here, where it’s into or from a condominium, single-family home, TIC, mansion, mini-mansion, starter home or pied-à-terre. Our buyer clients know they’re working with approachable, continually engaged and authoritative top-producing professionals who are accompanied by a happy, mellow and friendly big black dog, Raffi, who likes to wag his tail too.

Our track record is evidence that we know how to win and deliver the outcomes that impact our clients’ lives in the most positive ways possible.  We use a smarter, more-detailed approach to help our clients win — even if they’re not the highest offer, they’re many times the best one. 

Off-Market Find + Win In Noe Valley

As first time buyers unsure of exactly what we wanted, not to mention where in the city we wanted to be, Kevin was very patient and generous with his time in order to help us figure out what would best fit our desires and budget. With the training and attention-to-detail of a lawyer and the eye of a designer, Kevin has all the right skills. He is personable, professional, hard-working and well-connected amongst agents in the city.

Kevin ultimately found an off-market property in Noe Valley, at the right price, that is perfect for us. He knew it, we knew it, and within 24 hours of seeing the property we had a signed contract. We were able to move with speed and confidence because of our trust in Kevin, the time he took to educate us in advance throughout our search, and his outstanding market knowledge.

We are nothing but happy with our new home and with the outstanding service Kevin provided. Even now, Kevin and Jonathan are only a text or email away with recommendations or answers to our questions. We highly recommend working with K&J!

Kevin and Jonathan helped us find (and close!) on our dream house!

As first time home buyers, my fiancé and I were nervous but eager to get into the housing market in our favorite SF neighborhood. We talked to a number of buyers' agents, however Kevin and Jonathan really stood out. Not only did they answer all our questions with their wealth of online information, but also taught us what to look for (and what to watch out for) in person as we toured homes with them. Their quick, informative, and constant communication made it easy for us to act quickly on homes we liked.

Once we found *the home* they helped us craft an amazing pre-emptive offer that landed us the house. After we were under contract, Kevin and Jonathan handled all the little details, allowing us to close in under 2 weeks! We ended up with a great home, a great rate, and a great experience, all thanks to Kevin and Jonathan. With all the people we interacted with in the home-buying process, Kevin and Jonathan are our top recommendation.

As first time homebuyers (and in SF no less!), Kevin helped my wife and I navigate the process from beginning to end. With his exceptional help, we were able to quickly find a place we loved. As others have mentioned, he is extremely responsive and his prior legal background helped in explaining the various contracts we were looking at. We will definitely use Kevin again when looking for our next home and highly recommend him to everyone out there.

For the Sellers

Our clients’ listings are prepared better, shown better and sell better

We take what we learn from our buyer clients and help our seller clients succeed in San Francisco real estate. We work to ensure our reputation and brand are rooted in quality, hard work and thoughtfulness. We focus on the details — the little touches — as well as the big picture.

Our seller services includes a bit of humor, candor and perspective thrown in for good measure. And, unlike many agents out there, our success is rooted in the fact that we genuinely care about our clients as your story and goals are at the root of our joint success.

We regularly set, break or exceed local sales records with our listings.  While spending and investing in your property is essential, we strive to prepare (and adhere to) preparation budgets, and individual constraints to create a bespoke product that connects with the best buyers on an emotional level to get the best outcome possible. While every property might not need to be bespoke, our results will be.

Where Others Have Gone Before

While we may not know what your destination is, we can tell you stories about our many clients who have achieved real estate success with us. Take a look where your fellow cohort members have bought and sold in the Bay Area. 

Some of What We Know

Years of experience and hundreds of millions of dollars has taught us a thing or two about what it takes for success in San Francisco’s competitive real estate market. Here is some of that wisdom for your consideration.

TICs vs Condos

They may look alike and live similarly but a condominium and a tenancy in common unit are distinctly different which impacts market value, your freedoms as an owner, and available financing options.

TERMS + CONDITIONS

Real estate is ever-changing—just like the people and communities it revolves around. Its dynamic nature makes it as complex and surprising as it is rewarding.

These include tax regulations, rent control laws, lending standards, zoning rules, and even unforeseen events like pandemics or natural disasters. Staying informed is essential—so keep your wits about you and stay connected with us.

Kevin is a licensed California attorney but dedicates 99.9% of his time to real estate.
