SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE Q+A
The San Francisco Chronicle asks expert area realtors questions every week for their Sound-Off segment found in its Sunday Real Estate Section. The online counter part appears on SF Gate. We've been asked to contribute and do so fairly often, which is what you're seeing here.
Q: What’s some things clients (buyers or sellers) can do to make your job and the overall transaction process easier?
A: From day one, we start educating our clients with a big BART-like map with all the possible stops and paths we’ll encounter on our trip to the client’s destination. (See below) It’s akin to a choose-your-own-adventure book.
The visual aid helps our clients come up to speed on how we buy and sell prosperities in the most expensive market in the country. This speaks to the larger point of how important it is to both learn and trust the process. It’s a process where countless folks work every day to match the right buyers with the right seller.
The quicker our clients understand that the buying and selling process is going to involve going through stops and starts, places they don’t think they’ll go, and that there could be delays, the sooner they’ll join the ranks of our successful homeowners and sellers.

The tech sector has always had its ups and downs—recent DeepSeek-related turbulence is just another entry in the clips folder. But let’s not forget: four of the world’s most powerful tech titans, along with the most promising AI unicorns, remain headquartered in the Bay Area. The billionaires who shaped this industry? Still here. The workers who built it over decades? Still here. Many of these individuals have already realized their fortunes, and for those yet to, restricted stock units help buffer equity market volatility.
