About Scott

Scott Hayes has been guiding clients through the ins and outs of rural and luxury real estate in San Mateo County for nearly 20 years. A RealtorĀ® with a focus on the Bay Area’s rustic yet luxurious properties, he invites clients to expect…well, maybe a little more than ordinary. Somehow, he even landed in the top 1% of teams nationwide (real trends 2022), which surprises him just as much as anyone else.

Before stumbling into real estate, Scott spent years in corporate America designing marketing plans for Fortune 500 companies. A few life-changing events led him to rethink his path, and he decided to refocus his talents closer to home. Now, instead of dazzling boardrooms with PowerPoints, he channels his corporate marketing skills to help local buyers and sellers in San Mateo County navigate the real estate world, bringing a fresh perspective on homeownership and a lifestyle that doesn’t involve as many spreadsheets.

People looking at rural properties around here usually don’t know what they’re getting into (kind of like Scott when he started). Is a well that produces 3 gallons a minute good? Can you chop down that tree? Can you build a barn? Fortunately, Scott has the answers—or at least most of them. He makes a point to show every listing himself, not because he needs to be everywhere at once, but so every question about zoning, water rights, and the quirky details of rural properties gets answered clearly.

As a proud member of the Silicon Valley Association of Realtors, Scott specializes in ranches, executive homes, and rural and equestrian properties in Woodside, Portola Valley, and the Coastside. He’s also earned an EcoBroker certification, which may or may not impress his family, but it does give him extra tools to help clients make eco-friendly decisions. Whether it’s energy efficiency, sustainable design, or ā€œgreenā€ certifications like Energy StarĀ® Qualified Homes, Scott’s ready to guide buyers and sellers through the latest environmental trends in real estate without turning their yard into a compost pile.

With his marketing background, Scott creates campaigns that truly deliver: his listings consistently sell well above asking price. For his buyers, he often secures properties for less than the listed price—results that even he finds impressive. Some clients describe Scott as ā€œDr. Phil and a financial advisor rolled into oneā€ā€”not that he’d call himself that, but he does help people stay calm and keep perspective through the emotional rollercoaster of buying or selling a home

Scott is honored to be part of the Presidents Club at Compass, as well as the National Association of Realtors and the Silicon Valley Association of Realtors. But if you ask him, his real superpower might just be answering the thousandth question about wells and barns with unwavering patience—and maybe even a smile.
