What Better Buying Means
Our approach to buying is anything but ordinary—it’s wide-ranging, comprehensive, and deeply committed. We’re here to provide a seamless experience, diving into every detail to uncover the full potential of each property. With us, you’ll find there’s always more than meets the eye.
You
Buyer. Seller. First-timer. Seasoned Consumer of Real Estate. Natives. New-to-the-City. Transplants. Singles. Friends. More-than-Friends. Families. Companies. Trusts. Trustees. Developers. Owner-Occupiers. Portfolio Builders/Managers.
- Our clients come from all walks to life with a variety of professionals, circumstances, and experience.
We’ve created a helpful form that can let you tell us more about yourself and what your needs are; you can tell us as much or as little as you want. Access it here.
Whether you’re looking for a condominium, single-family home, TIC, mansion, mini-mansion, or a two- to four-unit building, we’ve got you covered. From starter homes and forever homes to pied-à-terres and even vacant parcels, our buyer clients know they’re in expert hands. With Kevin and Jonathan, you’re working with approachable, engaged, and top-producing professionals—with a little extra support from Raffi, our happy, mellow, and friendly black lab.
Our Track Record Speaks for Itself
We know how to win and deliver results that make a real difference in our clients’ lives. With a smarter, detail-oriented approach, we help our clients succeed—even if they’re not the highest offer (though, of course, being the highest offer doesn’t hurt!).
#buyer resources
Our metrics show these are some of the most popular pages on our site—aside from specific property listings or the ever-popular Raffi-related content (understandably!). Take a look through these pages to see why they’re so sought-after and why so many buyers turn to Kevin+Jonathan for their real estate journey.
About Our Neighborhoods
In San Francisco, where beach-front property isn’t always the priciest, an impressive variety of communities fit within just 7 x 7 miles. Join us for a realtor’s perspective as we take you through the city’s unique neighborhoods, each with its own character and charm.
About Condos
Condos are the most dynamic and diverse property type in San Francisco. Forget the images of golf course townhomes, your great aunt’s retirement condo in Boca, or that Chelsea pied-à-terre. San Francisco’s condominiums offer a unique mix of architectural styles, amenities, and locations. We explore what makes each one distinct and why they’ve become such a staple in the city’s real estate landscape.
On Disclosures
Whether you’re buying or selling, disclosures are essential documents that provide critical insights into a property. We’ll walk you through what to look for, what should be included, and how these details can impact your decisions.
About Financing the Purchase
While not everyone buys their home in cash, a traditional 30-year fixed-rate mortgage isn’t always the best fit either. We dive into the essentials of mortgage options in San Francisco, sharing tips and strategies to help you navigate the lending landscape—especially in today’s world of fluctuating interest rates. Financing can be complex, but with the right guidance, it doesn’t have to be daunting!
About Tenancy in Common Units (TICs)
Not a health concern or a nervous tick—TICs are a unique, quasi-condo property type that evolved as a response to San Francisco’s restrictions on condominium conversions, aimed at protecting tenant housing. While some TICs may eventually convert to condos, the question remains: are they a solid investment? We’ll explore the pros and cons of this distinct property class so you can make an informed decision.
About Buildings + Building in SF
San Francisco properties come in all shapes and eras—from charming 1880s Victorians to sleek 1980s builds and modern 2018 designs. (Worry not; we haven’t hit 2080 yet!) We’ll guide you on what to consider when buying here, including whether to go for a “flipped” home or even tackle a flip yourself. We also demystify why every “old” house isn’t necessarily from 1900.
Are you paying for someone else’s choices in colors and finishes, or would you prefer a blank slate? And if you’re up for a renovation, what does that mean in one of the world’s most expensive cities to build in? We’re here to help you explore these questions so you can make the right decision for you.
Property Walk-Through Videos
While not technically part of this site, Kevin’s 1,000+ YouTube walk-through tours (typically in 1080 HD or 4K) offer a unique perspective on San Francisco real estate. With over 1 million hours viewed and more than 4,300 subscribers, these candid, real-world videos let you explore properties as if you were there, seeing each space from Kevin’s point of view. Dive in and experience what could be your next home—from every angle!
Invaluable Feedback As You Consider Your Most Valuable Purchase
There’s nothing more rewarding than knowing we’ve not only done our job well but have also positively impacted lives. What makes this even more satisfying is the diversity of our client base. From an architect and a retired civil servant to young parents, a retired tech innovator and grandparent, a developer, and a would-be real estate mogul, our clients come from all walks of life. They are young, older, middle-aged, and represent a rich tapestry of backgrounds, races, and circumstances. Yet, they all share one thing in common: the successful results Kevin and Jonathan were able to deliver.
“Kevin and Jonathan are a fantastic team. I found them via Yelp and, for once, the superlative reviews were accurate.”
“Step by step they guided us through the process and advised us on how best to proceed. Most of all their encouragement is probably what kept us in the game that otherwise I thought we could not have won.”
“Thank you for bringing decency to an otherwise shoddy industry.”
“It’s hard to describe how good of an experience it was to work with Kevin and Jonathan — they’ve completely changed our opinion of how great real estate can be.”
“We had a wonderful experience working with Kevin, Jonathan, and Raffi. We have and will continue to recommend them to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home in the Bay area. We were first-time buyers and because of their expertise and support, we’re able to get our dream first home!”
“If I could give more stars I would.”
“Having Kevin and Jonathan as guides through the SF real estate market is a true win. Their expertise and knowledge in navigating housing and neighborhood options, complex processes and paperwork is bar none.”
“They are so positive, energetic and fun, that the whole experience working with them is a joy! ”

The Big Overview of Selling a Property Well in San Francisco
Putting Thought into Action: Starting the Listing and Pre-Planning
The Initial Meet and Greet
We might start with a call, zoom call, or otherwise, but then it will come time for a face-to-face meeting to tour the property, understand your goals and discuss the best strategies tailored to your needs. We’ll review comparable sales to see where your property stands—and how we might aim to outperform them.
GOAL: A signed listing agreement, ready to move forward.
Preparation. Preparation. Preparation. Getting Everything Ready: Disclosures and Pre-Marketing
Pre-Launch Preparation
Before officially launching, while awaiting photos, video, 3D tour, floor plans, and printed materials, we focus on fulfilling California’s disclosure requirements. This includes coordinating pre-sale inspections to ensure everything is in order.
GOAL: By the time of the first public showing and MLS debut, we’ll have a complete disclosure package ready, and the property will shine for open houses, broker tours, and private showings.
Showing Off: Open Houses and Affirmative Marketing
Crafting a Curated, Inviting Space
Our approach to showcasing your property goes beyond standard open houses. Through targeted, affirmative marketing, we create a lasting impression that resonates with the right buyers.
We specialize in creating spaces that are welcoming, inviting, and engaging—designed to make people want to see them in person. From a strategically set list price to special events and pre-scheduled showings, we have a range of tools to maximize interest.
We make it easy for trusted agents to bring their clients, and for vendors to address any maintenance needs. Once inside, visitors will find thoughtfully placed, sometimes cheeky signage, simple lighting controls, and printed materials (or, as we like to call it, “shameless propaganda”) that tell the story of the property.
Bringing it Home: Escrow and Closing
Bringing It Home
Once an offer is accepted, we coordinate with buyer brokers, buyers, escrow, lenders, appraisers, and anyone else involved—be it HOA managers, TIC attorneys, or estate lawyers—to guide the sale smoothly to closing. This is the critical phase where deals can be made or broken, and our experience, guidance, and perspective are essential to ensuring a successful outcome.
GOAL: A closed sale with happy parties on all sides.
With our expert guidance, we help you prepare your home to stand out, maximize its value, and achieve the outstanding results our clients have come to expect.
Ready to Meet A Changing Market
The market is heating up—fueled by the AI boom and renewed interest in the Bay Area. Even amid global uncertainty and a real estate landscape that remains complex and competitive, San Francisco is once again a magnet for talent, innovation, and opportunity. Navigating this moment takes more than luck; it takes strategy, experience, and perspective.
“Nobody in the business works harder than you guys.”
“From the beginning stages of brainstorming ideas, to the execution and final sale, Kevin was with us every step of the way. He knew exactly what needed to be done and who to talk to, whether it be design, painting, hiring contractors or staging. He had a wealth of resources, all extremely skilled and competitively priced.”
“We were floored at the result you got us. We had an idea but this is something else. Where do I sign?”
“You guys are just first-class agents, which made the difference. I knew we could trust you and your disclosures were so thorough and right-on.”
“You guys always prepare and present your listings so well it’s not fair to other agents. Your clients are so lucky to have you because you so do so much for them.”
“I must say that your entire property from stem to stern, showed Spectacular! Everything was extremely well balanced — the pictures, art work, mirrors, window treatments, lighting fixtures, interior & exterior paint jobs, back yard, and the total ambiance that the two of you created in your presence with your cordiality & friendly personalities, made this one of the best open house presentations that I have ever experienced in 40 years as a Realtor!”
“Kevin brought his natural talent for home improvement to modernize the unit and emphasize its unique features (within our budget!). We were also impressed with the staging, photos, and other marketing materials they prepared for the sale. Even hit with some turbulent roadblocks (stay-at-home order and market disruptions), the duo stayed on top of events and adjusted their workflow as needed. They updated us regularly on any interested buyer and market updates, and there were responsive with our questions or concerns (even outside business hours). In the end, Kevin and Jonathan helped us reach a great offer despite the unprecedented global circumstances.”
