Top 1% of San Francisco Realtors, Top 5 Company Producer
Laura is a firm believer in the value of establishing meaningful relationships. As a Realtor, she focuses on building a relationship with her client from the very beginning by offering honesty, enthusiasm, and strategic planning.
After receiving her MBA from UCLA Anderson School of Management and working in sales and marketing for many years, she searched for a way to apply her business experience in a personalized way. In her pursuit, she found real estate to be the perfect fit.

Over the past 15 years, Laura has helped clients close hundreds of real estate transactions generating over $340 million in sales. She credits her success to focusing on her clients’ needs and providing superior customer service. Her clients often comment on how much they appreciate her proactive communication skills and responsiveness. She is also a skilled negotiator and a strong advocate for her buyer and seller clients' needs. Her top priority is that you are thrilled with your home sale or purchase and want to recommend her to all your friends and colleagues.

For sellers, she especially enjoys the process of getting the property ready to go on the market and developing a sales strategy that will achieve the highest possible sales price. (Ask her for some examples of before and after home transformations, she has worked on recently). On average, she sells her listings faster and at a much higher overbid than her peers, translating into more money and less stress for her Seller clients.

She focuses on her clients' needs, delivering honest and proactive communication. Her diplomacy makes her a great fit for more complicated transactions; many of her most satisfying successes have come from representing trusts and owners of tenant-occupied investment properties including multiple-unit buildings. Her finesse and compassion with clients in addition to her strong negotiation skills has resulted in the referrals and testimonials that drive her business today.

Throughout her career, Laura has developed a rich network of resources to support her clients, including being a member of the online Top Agent Network. As a member, she has access to off-market and pre-MLS listings, giving her buyers a head-start in the competitive San Francisco market and providing her sellers with marketing directly to the top agents in the city, resulting in a faster and higher sale.

It is her priority to make sure you feel supported during the process of buying or selling your home, as well as making sure you are thrilled with the outcome.
