Andrea is without a doubt the best realtor to go with. Her experience, passion and drive makes the real estate buying or selling process smoother than you can even imagine. Andrea helped me get the home of my dreams in a better school district for my son and I am forever grateful to her! If you are looking through hundreds of Bay Area Realtors stop here because Andrea is the way to go! Thank you Andrea!!
Andrea's extensive knowledge and experience came through from our first conversation with her. As first time homebuyers, we couldn't imagine being in better hands. We had a very small timeline to work with but she was still able to make our experience comfortable and seamless rather than rushed. She is incredibly gifted at understanding her clients and what their needs are. She is dedicated and hardworking, never missing a beat - even when at one point she had gotten ill in the process of house hunting. We are very grateful to have been able to work with her would highly recommend her to anyone looking for their first or next home!
Andrea is an amazing agent who had a "Let's get it done" attitude. No obstacle is too much or too difficult for her, and she does it all with a smile. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell.
We highly recommend Andrea. She helped us buy a home through a first-time homebuyer program that had extra hurdles as compared to a typical purchase. Throughout the process, she was extremely knowledgeable, professional, responsive and diligent. She helped us narrow down what we were looking for our search criteria and answered our countless questions. She is incredibly patient and kind, and made us feel comfortable at each step of the way and with the decision-making process. We were lucky to have worked with such an experienced, passionate and skilled agent. Thanks Andrea!
Andrea is a true professional. She knows her market, listens to her clients, very detail oriented, on top of everything and a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend her.
Andrea is absolutely incredible to work with; she is personable, knowledgeable, and gives you the client space to breathe and make your own decisions. We never felt pressured to increase our budget, make a move on a property we weren't ready for, or like we were inconveniencing her with our many questions and calls throughout our purchasing process. She spent quality time with us reviewing what we were looking for, and explained the differences in buying a house in San Francisco, versus other areas, so we knew what to expect. Andrea has a sparkling personality that feels like she's a friend who's working super hard to find your family the right place, and her response times were lightening fast and accurate. While purchasing a property can be a stressful process, working with Andrea is calming, and it felt amazing knowing she was on our team throughout our search. After one month of looking, we found the property we were looking for, closed escrow, and moved in to spend our future in our dream home!
Andrea Swetland here... Andrea was the best possible realtor for me. She is very competent in every aspect of servicing a client in a real estate transaction. She is professional, warm, provides accurate information yet is not pushy, knows the market very well, has a great support staff and provided resources from having an estate sale to how the condo should be staged. She did everything for me as the whole thing was overwhelming and emotional for me. I can highly recommend her. She also has a very pleasant and understanding personality. I felt I could call Andrea any time of the day to ask questions or express wishes for how the transaction would turn out. I can Highly recommend Andrea because I know this is just how she works. She is a 5**** star performer and can be completely relied on.
Andrea is an incredibly knowledgeable, hardworking, trustworthy, and effective agent. My wife and I have worked with her multiple times over the past 10 years on different real estate transactions. She has always listened carefully to what we want, given advice without being pushy, and provided excellent customer service. She makes the process of finding, buying, and selling property as smooth as possible. She is always easy to reach and her willingness to answer any and all questions goes above and beyond. You could not ask for a better agent to help guide you.
The best way to describe Andrea and her ability to help people find and secure the home of their dreams is to list her incredible combination of attributes ... tenacious, great listener, experienced, wise, helpful, supportive, kind, attentive to detail, and there when you need her. She is a wonderful ally and advocate.
Andrea Swetland is simply wonderful and possibly a real estate fairy godmother; she recently helped my husband and I purchase our first home in San Francisco. I went out with Andrea to see open houses for the first time on a Tuesday, I fell in love with the second house I saw, and our offer was accepted the following Tuesday. Unheard of in San Francisco! Behind the scenes of this fairy tale real estate story was Andrea - she came over to our house at 10pm the night before offers were due and helped us read over every single page of the disclosures, she patiently answered all of our questions, and provided us with sage counsel. She is extremely genuine and down to earth, I cannot recommend Andrea highly enough. One of the things that really stands out about Andrea is how well she knows San Francisco both as an agent and also because she grew up here, she knows all the neighborhoods and understands the trends and the market. We are so happy in our new home and I am so grateful to Andrea for helping us get here - we truly would not be here without her!
Andrea is an incredibly detail-oriented and patient agent, both in the buying and selling process. I bought and sold a place with her in less than a year, and as a first-time home buyer/seller, her knowledge about the ins and outs of disclosures, lease and sub-lease agreements, closing processes, the strategy for how, when and at what price to list the property, and so much more was crucial. She and her husband staged my home beautifully and were able to sell the house within days of it being listed. Additionally, she managed some very tricky legal issues with the property and was the key point of contact between the buyers, buyer's agent, title company and even the landlord for the parking garage. I'd highly recommend Andrea to anyone looking to buy or sell their home!
Long term relationship. We had been seeing each other for over six years. She wanted to take things further. But I was afraid of commitment. Something was always off. Vibe. Intimacy. Aesthetics. Each time it felt forced. Worried she was going to give up on me. On us. Then it happened. Love at first sight. Sparks flew. Priorities shifted. It was finally time and we both knew it. This is my first yelp as a San Francisco homeowner. The city I love is just outside my window. The dream has become a reality. Thanks start and end with Andrea. We met when she helped my former roommate find a place with his new wife. I looked briefly but wasn't ready on many levels. Over the next six years we stayed in touch. She sent me listings and we went on the occasional tour. And she waited. Patiently. With my landlord giving me notice he was moving back in it was time to reconsider. Prices and interest rates were down. I was qualified. It was time. She found the perfect place. Was tenacious, thorough and spirited throughout the exhausting process. Emails. Phone calls. Coffee. Never felt alone. There were euphoric highs and emotionally shattering lows. She was there every step of the way. When we finally closed it was a victory like no other. Andrea was the first person I wanted to hug. And say thank you. // Fast forward a few years later, and my time in San Francisco was coming to an end. It was time to call Andrea again, and she delivered better than ever. I've now bought and sold through Andrea and her team, and her professionalism, enthusiasm, tenacity, thoroughness, and collaboration are second to none. I trust and believe in her, and she made the buying and selling process as easy and understandable as possible. She is incredible. And deserves another hug. Our relationship is over now (which I said before, and look what happened!), but I'll always carry fond memories of our time together. Who knows? One day we might be back together. I'd take her back any day.
