About Robert

Rob Purnell is a Real Estate Advisor with Compass. DRE #01351519
Rob’s passion for real estate started in the mid-1990s when he negotiated his first San Francisco property investment. Soon after, he left his corporate strategy job for a career in real estate and has never looked back.

A licensed broker for 20 years Rob has negotiated over $500 million in real estate transactions. He’s represented clients on properties ranging from single-family homes, townhomes, and condos, to investment properties of all types and sizes.

A former sales and marketing executive for real estate tech startups, Rob serves buyers and sellers with modern, cutting-edge marketing strategies and tools. A lifelong learner he continuously studies innovative business and negotiation techniques from all sectors. As a local resident for over 25 years, Rob combines deep local market knowledge with his solid Midwestern work ethic and disposition, having been born and raised in Iowa.

Outside of real estate Rob likes to spend his free time with his daughter, volunteering with her various activities including our local schools, Girl Scouts, theater, swimming, and the list goes on. He loves to hike the extraordinary Bay Area trails, explore new recipes in the kitchen, and plays classical guitar

Philosophy
Rob builds his business one relationship at a time. Each and every person he works with benefits from his unwavering focus on helping them achieve their goals in the most efficient and low-stress way. From the very beginning, he is personally by your side and continues as your trusted advisor long after a transaction has closed. He is always there to help with his own expertise or referrals from the vast industry network he’s built over the years. He approaches every client’s situation with an expansive mindset, always prepared with a solid plan, yet nimble in the face of the inevitable unexpected.
