My husband and I were fortunate enough to have Josh guide us when we were exploring the neighborhoods of San Francisco with the hopes of buying a home. Right from the start, Josh's grasp of the market was evident. He had an uncanny ability to break down complex terms into simple language that we could easily understand. Despite the fact that we were contemplating a move from Texas, Josh made every effort to understand our preferences for our potential new home. We weren't just shown houses; Josh introduced us to homes that were carefully selected to fit our lifestyle and needs. His patience in answering all our questions, no matter how minor, made us feel both valued and understood. What stood out about Josh was his personable and down-to-earth nature. He made what can be a tense process feel less daunting, while maintaining his professionalism at all times. We found...

Top San Francisco Realtors & Listing Agents Since 2002
Who you hire as your San Francisco Bay Area listing agent matters. It matters a lot.
It can seem like real estate agents are pretty much all the same. Let’s be real. We are a dime a dozen, especially in the San Francisco Bay Area real estate market! Sit through more than one listing presentation with a critical eye, and you’ll notice that there are just not that many “revolutionary” marketing plans out there.
So, why does it matter if you hire a top listing agent in San Francisco? Having been on both ends of the sales transaction as a Buyer Agent and a Listing Agent for over two decades, working with hundreds of other San Francisco real estate agents, I have seen the good, the bad, the ugly. There is a wide range of abilities out there. Of course, a lady never tells!
There are a lot of wonderful, competent, intelligent agents out there. We are blessed to have, for the most part, a reputable, ethical group of fellow San Francisco Bay Area Realtors to work with on our transactions. Keep in mind that there are usually two Realtors on every transaction (Buyer/Seller Agent) so your Listing Agent’s ability to compete and cooperate is key.
In other words, while the “shark” style of top listing agent may seem appealing at first, they are generally not able to play well with others, and cooperation is essential to a successful negotiation on your behalf. In our experience, you want to hire a Listing Agent who knows how to stay calm, carry on, and positively influence others.
Who you hire as your listing agent does impact your bottom line. It impacts how much money you walk away with at the end of the transaction, and it will impact your sanity throughout the process. You probably want to make sure you get the most strategic advice and have a real estate agent you can really trust to get you the best outcome.
At Danielle Lazier Real Estate, it is our mission to be your full service real estate team and your trusted advisor from beginning to end. Our purpose is to sell your home for the highest price, in the least amount of time, and with the least amount of stress.
It will not be stress-free. You are moving and a lot of money is on the line. However, it can be organized, calm, efficient and effective. Following our process will reduce your risk. It is our job to manage the entire plan for you so you can focus on your life, your family and your work. This is what we do day in and day out.
We are here to be your consultant, negotiator and project manager. We are here to get you an offer you want, at a price you want, and with terms you want. Oh, and if it’s not realistic, we’ll tell you that too so we can work together to accomplish your goals.

FROM OUR BUYERS
We're so glad we worked with Josh! As first time buyers, we really needed help both learning how to buy a house, and a partner for finding our perfect place. Josh was great for both - his knowledge and patience throughout this process has been invaluable, and helped us get our perfect first home. We'll certainly be recommending him to all our friends!
Josh and Danielle were terrific! We needed a place in SF that we could lock and leave because we live most of the year in Colorado. Josh was great at showing us so many great properties and we were able to find what we were looking for in only a couple of days. He was a great agent and ALWAYS returned my call or text with whatever questions I had very promptly. We are so happy with their knowledge and service and would definitely use again whether buying or selling!
Since I’m a buyer, I primarily worked with Josh. My wife and I are from Colorado and I needed a realtor that was willing to work with an out of town client. I contacted 5 different realtors in the SF area and Danielle was the first to call me back in anything like a timely fashion. She was very helpful and hooked me up with Josh who was great. I told him when I would be there to look at properties and he lined up several showings for me and I was actually able to find a place and make a decision on it in two days! He was also great about getting back to me promptly whenever I had a question. I would definitely use Danielle and Josh again whether buying or selling!
We recently closed on our first ever home (condo) purchase, and Josh Ortiz from Vivre played a pivotal role in that. Josh came with a strong recommendation from a friend, and we understand why! In our initial conversations, Josh gave us helpful advice on how to approach the house search, timelines, and setting ambitious yet realistic expectations. He was quick to grasp our needs and what we were looking for, and made sure we were aware of listings that fit those criteria. He is also extremely organized and responsive – whenever we found a listing we liked, we could count on Josh to quickly follow-up with the listing team and get us more information. We wanted to work with a real estate agent who had deep familiarity with the local SF market, and Josh delivered. It is clear that he has built strong relationships within the local real estate community,...
Josh was our buyers agent for our first home and was incredibly helpful at every step of the way. He did a great job at communicating with the sellers on our behalf, engaging in research for us, and answered every single question we sent him in a timely manner. We had a last minute panic because our lender was Silicon Valley Bank - when their closure came to light, Josh immediately jumped into action and started collecting rate sheets from other lenders for us. Fortunately we were still able to use SVB, but Josh's professionalism in that moment shows how much he shines.
FROM OUR SELLERS
Danielle was exceptional to work with from start to finish, navigating us through the process of selling our home in Bernal Heights. What we appreciated most was her sincerity while answering our questions as well as her team of resources available to keep the process moving along. In addition to this Danielle had great follow-up and communication of important details that she clarified with us when needed. We made the right choice and are very grateful for Danielle and our real estate selling experience.
I cannot say enough good things about working with Danielle and her team. I have worked with her to initially buy and then eventually sell (at a nice profit!) my first real estate investment in San Francisco. Her sage advice every step of the way, and her flawless execution throughout each detail were incredible. Both in the purchase (where we were going up against multiple bidders) and in the eventual sale a decade later (where we were selling into a tough pandemic market), having Danielle in your corner is an absolute game changer. If you are trying to decide between the myriad of options available to you for real estate agents in SF, just stop and hire Danielle already. You will not regret it. Highly, highly recommended!
I have worked with Danielle several times over the past few years, and I can say she is hands down the best at what she does. She is a true professional and is detailed and strategic in her approach. Her ability to break down the process into manageable steps and her strong knowledge of the market are significant assets when participating in the Bay Area Real Estate market. She is great at communicating every step of the way and her enthusiasm and dedication contribute to a less stressful experience in general. She has incredible relationships with her peers and vendors and can pivot as needed to get things done. I’ve enjoyed every deal we have done together, and I look forward to many more.
Danielle is the consummate professional. Her listings always get tons of buyer interest, evening in the most challenging markets. She is well known for creating bidding environments, and getting buyer’s for her listings to pay more through competitive situations. When it came to disclosures and transparency, she leaves nothing to chance, which ultimately results in a smooth transaction all parties can feel good about. I strongly recommend Danielle and look forward to working with her again in the future!
If you are looking for a Realtor in San Francisco, I highly recommend that you contact Danielle before talking with anyone else. She posted a case study on her website that described a situation similar to ours so I initially reached out to her to get her thoughts. She listened carefully and went over each of the questions I raised. By the end of our session, I felt she was the only one I wanted to work with; there was no need to talk to any other Realtor. Being a first timer, the selling process can be overwhelming but after talking with Danielle, I threw out my preconceived notions and let Danielle and her team guide me. Her experience and instincts are right on target in terms of pricing, timing and marketing. The staging and design company she works with did a phenomenal job in delivering on time. Her support...
It is hard to imagine going through the process of selling our home without the expert guidance of Danielle, and the support of her amazing team. After 16 years in our house, and facing a very different market, there was a lot to navigate - Danielle helped us understand each aspect of the process and took plenty of time to address all of our questions and concerns, with thoughtfulness and care. Her team was highly professional and responsive, which helped make the entire experience efficient and smooth. In the end the results exceeded our expectations, and we had a very successful sale. We are so grateful to Danielle and her team and could not recommend them more.
