Monika Carmichael

Monika Carmichael knows what it is like to dream of being a property owner. It took patience, dedication, and determination for her to make that dream come true, and these are the same values she applies to help future homebuyers navigate the market and realize their own dreams.

Originally from Southern California, Monika moved to San Francisco more than 20 years ago and was immediately struck by the city’s artistic vibrance, diversity, and sense of community. In her professional experience as a business manager, she honed the skills and expertise she brings to real estate: creating business solutions to meet client-specific needs, managing cross-regional strategic projects, and working in a dynamic team environment. She has a keen sense for detail and a talent for problem solving that alleviates the burden on clients and colleagues.

Monika’s own experience with buying a fixer-upper in San Francisco gave her an appreciation of what a full renovation entails — and some interesting stories to tell! That experience has had a lasting and positive effect on her, as it taught her how rewarding it is to use patience and creativity to turn your vision into a home.

In her spare time, Monika volunteers with a community emergency response team whose motto is, “Do the most good for the most people.” She is an avid traveler, and her love of photography ensures she is never without a camera in hand. You’ll often find her hiking with her rescue dog and browsing vintage markets for curiosities, art objects, and midcentury designs.
