Susan Koide

Growing up, she was always on the go, from kickball and competitive track to poetry writing, and crafting. Over the years, not much has changed. She's still on the go: river rafting, hot air ballooning, and bungee jumping (only once!). Her zest isn't just for the outdoors. She brings the same verve and determination to her real estate practice. Clients tell her she is full of energy and enthusiasm – and there are great reasons why:
She believes education, homeownership, and real estate investments are gateways to financial security and freedom. She helps clients clarify their vision for the home of their dreams and empower them to make sound decisions. Working together, they create a plan to achieve their real estate goals. She loves to make dreams come true!
She has a real knack for home transformations. Her talented team of vetted professionals can turn an ordinary home into an extraordinary one. Resourceful and creative, she finds solutions for situations most realtors won't touch. Making the most of each investment fuels her, and their collaboration has rewards.
She understands real estate is more than a transaction. A successful sale or purchase can build security, confidence, and sustainability. For her, this is soulful work.
She's been a top-producing agent for ten years now, focused on Marin and the East Bay, two areas she loves and knows well. Clients can count on her market expertise, persistence, and diligent follow-through. For those looking outside of the Bay Area, she has an extensive realtor referral network.

In her prior life, she was successful in the wine business. Working with high-end wineries and vintners all across Northern California, she came to appreciate the incredible quality of life we have here. Fine wines, delicious fresh foods, glorious greenery, abundant trails… and a huge variety of wonderful properties abound.

For years Marin County was home. Now her husband and she savor life in the hills above Point Richmond. They hike Mt. Tam, sail their boat, “Encore” on the Bay, and mountain bike around Lake Tahoe. Enjoying the outdoors as they do, they also share a passion for the environment –– that's why she started a grass-roots campaign to pick up littered trash. Every week, they're out cleaning up parks, beaches, and roads, leading by example.

She's a member of the San Rafael Chamber of Commerce, as well as a member of Bay Area Wealth Builders, a real estate investment club. When time allows, she also volunteers with the Richmond Yacht Club, West Point Inn, and the Golden Gate Center for Spirituality. And it goes without saying that one of her favorite pastimes is to enjoy a glass of wine with good friends over a delicious meal.
