With Stephanie's professional guidance we went from should we sell our house to having it on the market in 5 weeks and having an offer 2 weeks later. She is very thorough, is in constant touch and there when you are feeling overwhelmed. Highly recommend.
Stephanie was instrumental in reaching a good result. She led with clarity and vision, offered her excellent connections and was always very quick and concrete in here responses. In short, her professional ability resulted in a simple, engaging and trustworthy experience that delivered an excellent result. I would definitely use Stephanie again. And recommend her to a friend.
Beyond our expectation Working with Stephanie went beyond my expectations. She was there every step of the way and helped us navigate a Reverse 1031 exchange. She helped with referrals to contractors and even purchased flowers for landscaping. She kept us informed of important deadlines and stepped in when needed. Her expertise and knowledge helped in every way.

I had the pleasure of working with Stephanie to sell my Mother's house in Moss Beach. She is a hard working Super Agent. I got early morning and late night emails and she was on top of everything. I didn't know what I was doing and desperately needed the help of a great agent and I found that in Stephanie. From our first meeting, I felt very comfortable putting my trust in her and am so glad I did. I signed a contract with her on January 29th and we closed escrow on March 21st for a sales price which was $200k over asking. Do yourself a favor and contact her today! Nancy Barr
Stephanie was awesome. She expertly guided us through the entire process of selling our home – from listing to buyer financing to close. But most importantly, she heard us when we told her we didn't have the bandwidth to go through a remodel, and wanted to sell as is. Normally Fall isn't usually a great time to sell, but Stephanie knew there was a lot of interest in our area at the time, and encouraged us to list in November. She did a fabulous job with the marketing of our property, and generated a lot of interest. We had two solid offers right after the Open House, and several more interested buyers. Stephanie's diligence regarding the buyer's financing, allowed us to choose the buyer with the strongest position, thus avoiding what could have been a huge problem for the sale going smoothly. Stephanie sold our home within three days of accepting offers. My husband and I highly recommend her. Thank you Stephanie!
Selling your home and moving is a huge life change. There is a whirlwind of activity -- from disclosures to inspections to staging to showing to accepting bids and negotiating with buyers. There’s a lot to know and do, and it happens fast. Enter Stephanie. She knows the process inside-out, and from your first conversation will objectively offer advice on all the options. Stephanie helped us decide if we wanted to sell, the exact right time to do it (based on her knowledge of market activity), whether we should do it on or off market, what work we needed to do (vs didn’t have to do) on the house, whether or not we needed to stage, how to live through showings in a seller-occupied home, and several pricing and negotiation strategies. She even put in place back-up offers to set our mind at ease. In the end, we received 8 great offers (all well above asking), thanks to the process she constructed, how she communicated with other realtors, and the way she presented our home. Stephanie is an absolute go-getter who doesn't stop until she's delivered above and beyond. From the second we said go, she put the wheels in motion to not only help us get the best return on our investment, but also to protect us in various scenarios we never would have known about or considered. She’s tough but fair. Friendly. And wise. She knows how to negotiate. And will work every detail until your transaction is closed. She also understands the emotional toll of selling a home and helps you through that part as well. If you're thinking of buying or selling your home, you want Stephanie in your corner!
Stephanie was introduced to us by a trusted friend and San Francisco realtor who we have worked with for over twenty years. He is part of the Compass network, and we asked for a recommendation for a local Half Moon Bay realtor; Stephanie's name was on the top of the list. During our initial call, I sensed right away she would be the one we would choose to sell our home. Her deep knowledge of the Coastside marketplace, her communication skills, and her professionalism sold me immediately. I also appreciated her intuitive nature. We had a challenging set of issues to solve to obtain the best price for our home, and Stephanie was brimming with ideas and solutions to unravel them. Our initial discussion and our following meetings for the first four months of our association were over Zoom. The Pandemic had us locked down in Stockholm, and it wasn't until we received our vaccinations were we willing to travel back to Half Moon Bay to prepare the house for sale. That said, together, we could strategize, organize and even begin some of the work before our arrival. All of this helped avoid delays once we were home. Stephanie worked closely with us through the preparation and staging of the house. She worked very hard to develop a robust communication strategy and provided an exquisite web presentation of our home. Once on the market, she personally held "open houses" for several weekends and did private presentations during the week. We had a full price, all cash, non-contingent, eight-day close offer in just a little over a month. Stephanie is personable, reliable, and keeps her word. She's someone our family completely trusts, and we now consider her a professional colleague and a dear friend. We highly recommend Stephanie and give her a glowing review of the work she did for us.
Stephanie Sills provided outstanding service in preparing, marketing, and selling our San Mateo residence. We worked with her extensively to get our home of 27 years ready for sale, following her guidance in attending to many renovation and upgrading details. When the time came to list our property, she and Compass created a highly-professional presentation package that generated very strong demand. After just five days, we were under contract for a sale that closed three weeks later with no complications. I highly recommend Stephanie and her team to anyone considering selling or buying on the Peninsula.
When my girlfriend and I finally made the decision to try and purchase a home, we definitely didn't have any of our paperwork and money organized. We had a loose idea of where we wanted, but were fairly flexible. After working with our loan agent, we had to go back to the drawing board multiple times in order to qualify for our loan. I mention all of this because Stephanie managed to stay in touch and check in with us about our ongoing process of qualifying for a loan. She took the time to get to know us in the beginning of our search and cultivated a list of houses that fit our tastes. (We like odd homes). In the over year long process of Stephanie representing us, we made one offer on our dream house and it was accepted at asking price. Could not have asked for anything to go better.
Stephanie Sills came highly recommended to us after our Aunt purchased a high end property in Monterey. Her reputation and respect among realtors even down in Monterey was well known. We interviewed her and within the hour of her presentation signed her. It was evident that she was very knowledgeable of the market in Half Moon Bay, she listened carefully to our needs, wishes and desires, and formulated a plan that we felt very comfortable with. Stephanie is a realtor with Integrity, she won't just tell you what you want to hear, she tells you the truth based on actual market conditions. There were no surprises for us, and her market analysis was exactly right on point. Her thoughtful analysis and property preparation plan was followed exactly as she outlined. We didn't want to sell low, but neither too high and miss the market. Within 8 days we had multiple offers over list price. All her recommendations of home improvements proved to be right on the mark, despite our Aunt's reluctance to make recommended changes, they proved she was correct, and the house sold with No Contingencies, smoothly and on time. Despite being a high end sale, and difficult market conditions, the house sold above asking with multiple offers to choose from. Stephanie endears confidence, she kept us informed very frequently, we always knew what the status was during preparation, listing, and Offer acceptance. She is very professional, pleasant to work with, but underneath the poise and charm, there is an aggressive, go getter, who knows her business and represents her clients doggedly. She knows when the turn be aggressive and when to be smoothly calm. Bottom line, she's a professional, presents extremely well in person and in Video. We can't say enough positives about our experience with Stephanie! If you want to know and gauge how a realtor will be in your future, look at their past performance. With Stephanie, she's a top sales producer in the Half Moon Bay area! Continues
As first time buyers we had no idea what to do or how to navigate buying our first home. Stephanie was extremely patient with us and guided us through this journey with kindness and expertise. She put us in touch with a financial adviser, and was quick to answer any questions we had by text or phone. After a few short months we were ready to make an offer on a piece of land in Boulder Creek! Stephanie walked us through the buying process and we closed on the land within no time. I shudder to think of what this process would have been like without Stephanie as our guide. Thank you for everything Stephanie, we are so grateful to have lucked out with a realtor as awesome as you!
