It was an absolute pleasure working with Christian on our home-buying experience. It felt like he was available for us whenever we needed him, and he made the process of viewing properties under COVID-19 restrictions as easy as possible. His experience was additive in that he'd point out things to consider that we hadn't noticed ourselves. Christian was also patient with us when we had questions. When we did decide to make an offer, Christian's advice and instincts were spot on. He helped us secure the property we wanted at a great price.

Christian doesn't sleep, he doesn't take off weekends, and he doesn't stop working until he finds you a perfect home. It was an absolute pleasure working with Christian. He allowed us to take our time to figure out what he wanted- asking probing but nonjudgemental questions to help us figure it out while providing insight into the different ways we could spend our budget (location, condo v. SFH, space). In the end, Christian sent over our new home, and we fell in love instantly. It was something we had skipped over when perusing the listings on our own, but he encouraged us to take a look, and we are so glad we did. Buying a home in San Francisco is not an easy process, but Christian helped us navigate the market like a good friend we've known all our life (who also happens to be an expert in SF real estate!)

Christian was a godsend during the hectic process of buying my very first home, along with a hectic work schedule. He was on top of things and gave us all very detailed information on everything required to close in such a small period to close the property. He was patient, educated in the Real Estate industry, kind, understanding, professional, and quick to return phone calls and emails. We could not have been any luckier to have worked with Christian. We have ranted about him to our friends and family and will definitely refer him to any of our family and friends looking to buy.

Christian “gets it” - he’s the only realtor I’ve met who was able to understand the nuances of what I cared about (some very specific stuff to support a car collection, with views and some other requirements with a few block area) and filter through a lot of properties with me in an efficient manner to avoid wasting my time. He’s incredibly responsive at all hours of the day or night and worked incredibly hard to help me get a great deal ($150,000 under asking on a multi-family in the Castro!). He’s also very tech-savvy and able to effectively communicate over texts and email during the day when you’re in meetings at work and don’t have time for calls - and he’s all-in on e-signing anything possible to save you from dealing with paper. Great experience for me!

Until now, I can't believe what happened working with Christian. I felt everything was a blur, from us talking about how we start planning what we want, to us signing and getting the keys for our new home in a matter of 18 days, was unrealistic. Working with Christian felt like talking with your family, not your realtor. He treats us like his own. I wholeheartedly want to thank him as our family, friend, and realtor, and I would endorse him to people that I care about in terms of considering buying their first home or just wanting to be knowledgeable about real estate. Again, thank you so much, Christian.
