Testimonials
“I have been working with CM for the past 9 years and I feel extremely lucky to have found him. He has helped me through several real estate transactions and handles everything in a professional manner with great in depth knowledge of the microcosms of San Francisco. His reach extends way past buying and selling, and also has experience with architecture and design which help incredibly when working with such large emotional pieces such as the homes of San Francisco. I couldn't go anywhere else!”

“We have bought and sold with C.M. He is the only person that I trust and will keep going to him when I buy/sell real estate properties again in San Francisco. He's seasoned, professional, and honest. Offers his views on investment, remodelling, and design - let the clients make informed decisions. He is genuine and trustworthy - we feel very comfortable working with him and have developed a long term friendship.”
-EMO E.
“About 10 years ago, my wife & I worked with C.M. and purchased a home in San Francisco. Last year, C.M. helped us with the sale of our house. He had a team of excellent contractors and handymen that helped us with refreshing and upgrading the property. His recommended photographer and stager were both excellent. Friends and family were shocked to see how the property transformed.
C.M., with his professionalism and steadfast commitment, has been an essential ally through this emotional journey of purchasing and selling our home.”
- KEN K.
“We moved to SF in 2005 and were quite fortunate to have CM as a broker. He is extremely knowledgable and trustworthy. We later used CM to sell our home when we moved back to New York. We plan to retire to SF someday and of course will use CM. Sometimes in life you just luck out and meet people who change your life for the better and CM is one of those people.”
- JOSH R.
“Being new to San Francisco, CM was extremely patient, helpful and guided us well in purchasing our first home in the City. He guided us through a purchase, remodel and resale with tremendous attention, creativity, access to resources, knowledge and expertise. Our first experience in SF real estate was successful due to CM and the resources he brought to us.”
- BECKY B.
“C.M. - extremely professional and patient realtor, the best agent we worked with (we worked with a few in the past.) He bought and sold our property in San Francisco. Never pushy and always helpful with his advice and knowledge of the housing market. We highly recommend him to anyone who is selling or buying a house in SF neighborhoods.”
- EM T.
“In CM you get a good partner, great insight and the guidance you need to make the right decision for yourself. He will give you the straight answers and advice that can help in what is a very competitive housing market. Even post-sale CM has continued to share good advice - for is it was on remodeling/renovation - another area where he has great expertise.”
