"Dana Stone was fantastic to work with in the sale of our home. In a difficult market, she navigated property repairs, staging, marketing (including MLS and luxury auction listing), escrow and financing issues, and ultimately sold the property at above asking price! Thankful we worked with Dana, and for her expertise with all aspects of the sale of our home!"" - Adam

"Iāve been practicing law for 30 years and am currently a Managing Counsel with Sonder Hospitality USA, Inc. Dana Stone was my legal colleague at Sonder for 4 years. Of the many talented attorneys that Iāve worked with in my career (United States Navy - Judge Advocate Generalās Corps, Paul Hastings, Pillsbury Winthrop, Picher Nichols & Meeks, Union Bank, Bank of Hope, Douglas Emmett, and Sonder), Dana ranks among the best. She is not only a smart experienced real estate attorney, but sheās also business minded and pragmatic. All of the internal business and client groups appreciated her advice. In fact, Dana was my go to lawyer to discuss complex legal issues that impacted the real estate business of Sonder. In her new role, Dana is definitely a professional I would trust and personally retain if I needed to buy or sell a property." - John K. L.

A Lifetime Native to the Peninsula
I caught the real estate bug early in life during my summers in Atherton assisting my mom, Marie Clough Straubeāa leading residential broker on the Peninsula. I settled here on the Peninsula to raise a family and serve my communityā the area I know like the back of my hand. My children attended Laurel, Encinal, and Sacred Heart Schools in Atherton.
A Distinguished Real Estate Transactional Attorney
Prior to becoming a real estate agent, I practiced as a transactional real estate attorney, a journey spanning more than two decades with the following companies:
Ā· Allen Matkins
Ā· Lillick & Charles
Ā· Spieker Properties
Ā· Sonder Inc.
Ā· Founder/Partner SSL Law Firm LLP, a women-owned law firm in San Francisco
My legal and business acumen uniquely positions me to resolve complex real estate challenges, giving my clients a distinct advantage.
A Talent for Design and Architecture
Having built my own homes in Menlo Park and Atherton, I've refined my keen sense of design and architecture. Partnering with clients on design concepts and remodeling is one of the aspects of my job I find most rewarding.
A Strong Support Team
Backed by my Compass team and marketing staff, I offer the highest level of client care. Whether you're buying your dream home or selling a treasured property, you can count on me to guide you to success.
My Life Outside the Office
Outside of the office, I'm a modern art enthusiast, an active member of the SFMOMA Curator's Circle, and a financial literacy mentor for the LEMO Foundation in Redwood City. When not closing deals or volunteering, you'll likely find me hiking local trails, exploring art exhibitions, attending book club or shopping at local farmersā markets. Reminiscing about my wonderful years volunteering at my kidsā local schools reminds me of the importance of giving back.
My Promise to You
When we collaborate, Iāll be your real estate resource from the moment we meet until long after close. Meeting my clientsā goals isnāt just my profession, itās my passion. I look forward to working with you!
