Like many people, I had developed a fatigue and mistrust with agents who tell you what you want to hear, but put in the base minimum effort and treat you like a number on a ledger. Patrick stood out immediately as someone refreshingly different. He sold my house in Oakland, and there was no hesitation in working with him a second time to buy a place in SF a year later. He knows the area, the community, the market like the back of his hand. He genuinely loves people, and will be invested in you and your family finding the best possible future home that fits your unique needs. He has a diverse background with a strong understanding of business, marketing, and finance. Above all, he's real, he's honest. He will break things down in ways that everyone can understand, he listens and is willing to take on any challenge in front of him. To top it all off, he's got a joyful personality with a great sense of humor, making the entire journey fun.

Patrick used every bit of knowledge and skill to make sure our offer was the most attractive and assure we would get the house of our dreams. He was able to navigate our sometimes opposing needs in a professional manner and I would absolutely recommend him.

Patrick is a master negotiator, and I'm still not entirely sure how he pulled our purchase off. He read the other side better than they read themselves — figured out what actually mattered to them, what didn't, and shaped our offer so it won without us overpaying for the privilege. Then came the detail work: he caught things buried in the disclosures I would have skimmed right past, tracked every deadline, and never once made me chase him for an answer. "Great negotiator" is the easy compliment. What really got us the house was how completely prepared he was before he ever picked up the phone.

If you're buying or selling in the East Bay, Patrick is the person to call. We worked with him to buy our home and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. He invested a lot of time upfront getting to know us, our priorities, and what we were looking for, and did a genuine deep dive on the neighborhoods, market dynamics, and the kinds of nuances that only someone with real local knowledge would think to bring up. It never felt transactional. He's also incredibly communicative throughout the whole process. We always knew where things stood, what was coming next, and what to expect. There was no chasing him down and no ambiguity. More than anything, we felt like he was consistently looking out for our best interests rather than just moving a deal forward. Patrick is knowledgeable, trustworthy, and a great person to have in your corner. We'd recommend him to anyone without hesitation.

Patrick helped us both with a purchase and a sale; throughout the two experiences he was calm, and ready to see both the humor and the difficulties in what we were about to do. He knows the Oakland-area market; he knows regulations; he knows the crafts- and trades-people who can make a house liveable and sellable. We plan to buy again soon, and will absolutely be working with him.

I can't recommend Patrick enough. His level of service was exceptional — he helped us figure out what we were actually looking for, dial in price, and land our dream home off market. He is very personable and made the whole process feel manageable. If you're looking for someone who will really show up for you, Patrick is your person.

We could not have asked for a better experience selling our home! We had a pretty aggressive schedule for getting our home on the market and, thanks to wonderful communication, Patrick made it happen. He was very collaborative in working through the process of preparing the home for market. He has an excellent network of contractors and tradespeople and coordinated work seamlessly to ensure meeting our listing schedule. When it came to pricing and marketing strategy Patrick was amazing! He recognized what was special about our home and made sure it was highlighted to other realtors and potential buyers. His expert understanding of local market valuations and conditions was the key to our receiving multiple, well-qualified offers while other homes that went up for sale at the same time ours sat on the market. His advice on evaluating offers and his skillful negotiation resulted in us accepting an offer well above what we had initially thought our home would sell for. If you can't tell from the review - we enthusiastically recommend Patrick!

Patrick was great to work with. This was my first home purchase and I knew next to nothing. The entire process could have been overwhelming, but Patrick walked me through everything I knew. He helped set reasonable expectations and encouraged me without being pushy. He was extremely responsive and went above to help me close. He also has an extensive network that came in handy throughout the process, including helping find a great loan. Would highly recommend working with him!

Patrick was a tremendous help as we navigated the market for several years providing insights and guidance along the way. He's direct, honest, and easy to work with. When it was finally time to pounce, he was the exact representative we needed to buy our home and get it done. Patrick is a gem!

Patrick was hands-on without being pushy in helping me get the house ready to go on the market. He guided me with decision-making, and had the best resources for cleaning, clearing, landscaping support, staging & whatever else was needed. You name it, he got it. Offers poured in during the Open House weekend, and we were in contract within a couple of days! Patrick is savvy, personable and professional; certainly the best in every respect.
