Robyn Kaufman

    • What can I say about Robyn? She helped us purchase our condo at the Metropolitan back in 2004, and when we found a property in Tiburon we wanted, we had to sell the Met condo quickly. Robyn worked tirelessly to make it all happen for us. She is our "go-to" realtor and now our wonderful friend. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

    • Robyn was my realtor 11 years ago when I purchased 2 condos from her in SOMA. I came back to Robyn last September 2016 to assist me in selling my condo, after initially trying to sell through another realtor, which was a disaster. I am so happy I did. Robyn goes beyond the average realtor to make sure your property is presented in the utmost of elegance. She treated me with respect and honesty. She was patient with me throughout the process and my stressed moods at times. She acted fast knowing I was on limited time with the bank to get it sold before foreclosure. She got it sold in a little over a month, in a saturated, competitive real estate market. Robyn did not make cost of contracting or staging an issue. She stepped out of the box to do what needed to be done. And for that I am very grateful and appreciative!Thank You Robyn!ETP

    • Robyn Kaufman is simply the best of the best in San Francisco. She expertly guided my wife and I through the purchase and sale of our property - from viewing to close.She first helped us buy an amazing condo in the city, upon relocating to the bay area. Unexpectedly, our situation changed, and we needed to sell the same condo within 4 months of purchasing it.Robyn put together an amazing plan to sell our unit, that not only lead to a preemptive offer, but an offer that was more than 7% higher than our purchase price.Robyn is fun, a consummate real-estate professional and a ferocious advocate for her clients.

    • If you are selling or buying a high-rise condo in San Francisco, you will not find a better agent than Robyn Kaufman. She is extraordinarily professional and competent and unfailingly pleasant and cheerful. Robyn recently listed and sold my unit at the Metropolitan. It had been leased for a few years and needed considerable work before being placed on the market. Robyn drew on her vast network of connections to handle every detail of those improvements and obtained favorable prices for all of the work. Once the condo was ready for the market, it sold in three days for considerably more than the asking price. In fact, my unit achieved the highest price per square foot yet seen at the met. Hire Robyn! You won't be disappointed.

    • We have worked with Robyn Kaufman for about 2 years now. During this time we purchased a number of properties in San Francisco and I cannot imagine committing and having such a success rate with anybody else.Robyn's been a real estate agent in San Francisco through its ups and down and knows the market and the trends very well. It was especially important for us purchase property in the first phase of new construction. Robyn's connections with developers in San Francisco helped us accomplish our goals. Robyn knows the great opportunities and specifically tailors them for her clients. We are truly happy with Robyn Kaufman.

    • Thank you Robyn for selling our Mission Bay Condo. We loved working with you. You're professional, pleasant and understood our needs. Especially appreciate your quick and helpful responses. You took the stress away from the whole process.I would recommend Robyn to anyone who wants to buy or sell a condo in SF Bay area. We have dealt with many agents in the past but no one that I know was able to get the job done the way Robyn did.

    • If you have a property to list or buy in south beach or Rincon Hill, using Robyn is a no brainer. She knows this market better than anyone in SF. In some buildings she has probably bought or sold a majority of the units. I bought my unit at the Met from her as seller's agent 15 years ago, and then engaged her as my agent to sell it last year. She takes care of absolutely everything. I gave her the keys, and then next time I set foot in the unit, it had been cleaned, painted, remodeled, staged -- looked like a completely different condo. I didn't have to lift a finger. I showed up for the first open house, it was in contract 36 hours later for a great price over asking. I hate real estate agents in general, because in my opinion a very large majority of them are unprofessional, ineffective and self-dealing. Robyn is at the absolute top of the game. One of the view who are absolutely worth every penny of the commission. If you are transacting in real estate in south beach / rincon hill / soma, the best decision you can make is to hire her.

      - Derek W - Seller on Rincon Hill, San Francisco
    • Robyn Kaufman was our realtor when we started looking for a condominium in the SOMA district of SF 8 years ago. She not only found something for us immediately, but worked tirelessly to make the transaction happen as quickly and smoothly as possibly (given my husband decided to make this purchase just two months before our wedding day). A few months ago we decided to make the move to Marin. Robyn found our ultimate dream home in Tiburon with what we think must be the absolute best view in all of the Bay Area. We looked at a total of 10 homes before finding this one which just goes to show how well Robyn understands the needs and wants of her clients. Robyn is professional, reliable, responsive, sharp, proactive and will always go the extra mile for you even after your purchase with anything and everything you may need. We just recently decided to sell our condo and Robyn found a buyer quickly and we closed in 14 days with an all cash offer. Thank you Robyn. My husband and I HIGHLY recommend her.

    • She is an excellent agent. You will never regret your decision on choosing her as your agent. I recently sold a condominium in SF and she did a great job for me. I am really satisfied with what she has done for me. There is no other word to describe her work except excellent and great. You will be satisfied.

      - Terry A- Seller in South Beach
    • I have been working with Robyn since 2011 with buying and/or selling multiple properties in San Francisco. Robyn helped to sell my condo in South Beach in 2011 when I relocated to the East coast. After moving to the East coast, I still had interests in buying investment properties in San Francisco and Robyn made the process seamless. She was very responsive and went above and beyond to research the properties pros and cons. When selling my properties, Robyn discussed the plan, strategies and pricing after thorough research. She would help to coordinate from A to Z without having making a trip back to San Francisco. She has my full interest as a buyer and a seller in every real estate transactions.

    • Robyn helped me purchase two properties in San Francisco recently. She was on both occasions professional, dedicated, savvy, and effective. She was able to negotiate price and terms that were most advantageous. I recommend her without any hesitation.

      - Jaime A - 2 time Buyer in San Francisco
    • Robyn recently listed and sold my condo at the Met. We got a great a price and had multiple offers. Robyn also helped make the transaction very quick and easy. Although I have several agents that I have worked with in the past, I approached Robyn for this transaction because she had previously sold the condo to me several years back, and I was really impressed with her knowledge of South Beach real estate. She also did all showings herself and was always accessible throughout the process.

      - Arash R - Seller on Rincon Hill
    • Robyn is very well connected in San Francisco real-estate circles and has a considerable network to draw on whether you intend to buy or sell.I worked with her for around a year submitting offers on a number of places and always appreciated her work ethic and insight on the market. She has sold literally hundreds of places in South Beach and beyond and always has a good attitude with clients, even if the process of buying in San Francisco is not always as straightforward as it could / should be.I would recommend her for anyone looking at a condominium in the Soma/South Beach/Financial District area.

      - Brian L - 2 time Buyer on Rincon Hill
    • Robyn Kaufman is the only Realtor I would ever consider for buying and selling a property in SF. I have experience working with Robyn for both. She helped my husband and I buy a home in Mission Bay, sell it as well as helping us both buy new properties. She gets to know her clients so that she can match what SF has to offer to each persons unique style and requirements in a home. Robyn is strategic in how she approaches pricing a property as well as where to come in when purchasing. I trust her implicitly. She goes above and beyond for her clients and knows SF condo's better than anyone. She can tell you the pro's and con's of every building as well as the historical perspective and trends in sales. She becomes a partner in making a critical decision on where to invest in your new home. Robyn is incredibly responsive and is seamless in walking you through the complicated process of buying and selling a home. She is present at every meeting, signing and interaction explaining in detail the process and implications of each step along the way in order to ensure you are set up for success with your new home. She never misses a detail and is always looking out for the best interest of her clients. Her sophisticated professional approach is such a pleasure to work with!

      - Melissa P - 2 time Seller and 2 time Buyer in San Francisco
    • I worked with Robyn to purchase my first condo in SF - South Beach. She came highly recommended by a good friend of mine. He'd placed multiple offers on SF condos and just couldn't get his offer accepted. He switched to Robyn and landed his dream condo within days. The SF market is so competitive that you need a smart, aggressive, and savvy realtor to make your offer stand out above all others, even if it's not the highest bid $ wise. Robyn is very well connected in the real estate world and very involved throughout the entire purchase process. She connected me with a great lender (Home Street), supplied expert advice dealing with an extremely difficult Seller, and provided suggestions for painting, flooring, window treatment, etc. for work I needed post-sale. She even helped me sort through architectural renovation requests with my HOA in order to expedite the lengthy process before I moved in. I'd highly recommend Robyn to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in SF!

      - Cheryl S - Buyer on Rincon Hill
    • Robyn was wonderful to work with. She came highly recommended from a friend who had purchased a home with her help. My husband and I have now worked with Robyn on two occasions. First, she helped us purchase our beautiful condo in the San Francisco. She was very helpful with the process. She worked efficiently to show us our options in the area. She was quick in answering all of our questions and was easy to get a hold of. After having such a great experience with her in purchasing our new home, we decided to work with Robyn on selling one of our other condos. We told her what we were looking for in terms of price and timing in selling the condo. She is smart in her tactics and was able to land us just what we were looking for.Overall, Robyn was kind, competitive and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend using her services.

      - Rachal R- Buyer in Mission Bay, Seller in Berkeley
    • After meeting with a few different agents my instincts told me to list my condo in SOMA with Robyn. I'm SO glad I did! She is everything you want in a real estate agent... smart, savvy, attentive and a total class act. Robyn developed a listing strategy that ultimately led to a sale at 10% over asking after just two weekends of open houses. Robyn is on top of every detail and knows how to play the market dynamics in various neighborhoods around S.F. She has set record prices p/sq. foot in every building she's sold in. If you're looking for someone to help you with your home sale...stop right now and call Robyn!

      - Jeff M - Seller on Rincon Hill
    • Robyn is the only person I would trust in buying or selling a home. She helped me purchase my first condo in San Francisco South Beach area. She really knows how to get deals done; the entire process took just over a month from first viewing to close! Being a first time homebuyer I needed more explanations of the process than a seasoned buyer; she was patient and very knowledgeable explaining the process each step of the way. I was out of town on business one of the weeks, and she helped me manage through the process remotely. She is exactly who you want on your team as she is sharp, has a strong expansive network, and in-depth SF market knowledge. She works tirelessly for you and is an excellent negotiator; she helped me successfully work with a difficult seller to get the deal done in a short amount of time. She even helped me with decisions on renovation plans and interior design!Buying a home can be quite stressful at times, and it was comforting to have her always available if I had a question. Her support and expertise made my experience a good one. She is a great person, and I really enjoyed working with her. Thanks Robyn; you truly are the best!

      - Jaime H - Buyer on Rincon Hill
    • If you are looking for a professional, honest, hardworking, knowledgeable, experienced, resourceful realtor, I highly recommend Robyn Kaufman. I came to know Robyn over a decade ago. Our family met her when the Metropolitan was on the market in 2004. Recently Robyn helped my husband and I sold a unit in Mission Bay. She helped us with many tasks to get the condo unit prepared for the market, from finding reasonable painters, stagers, cleaners to hardwood floor installers. She even scheduled the loading dock for us! Her initiation, effective, strategic planning made selling the unit a simple and stress-free process. She sold our unit in less than a week it was on the market. My husband and I are very grateful and appreciative to have Robyn as our realtor.

      - Gloria H - 3 time client - Buyer on Rincon Hill, Seller on Rincon Hill, Seller in Mission Bay
    • If you are wanting to sell or buy in the luxury condo market in SF, Robyn Kaufmann is the best. She is extremely knowledgeable, professional and hardworking. My husband and I owned a very nice unit in a great building in SF but had high fees for a one bedroom condo which narrowed the target audience. Robyn was patient and dedicated and came through in a tough situation. She worked creatively to sell our unit and operates with grace and the highest integrity. She is a great negotiator and worked hard to insure we got a fair price and that every detail of the sale was attended to. Also, she is simply a wonderful person and a pleasure to work with. Thank you Robyn!!
