My wife and I spent 15 years in the East Bay dreaming about moving back to San Francisco, but when we finally decided to make it happen, we came to the search pretty unfocused. We knew what we wanted (classic SF character, water views, a walkable and vibrant neighborhood) but had no clear sense of where to find it all or how to think about our budget. We needed more than a real estate agent; we needed someone who could help us find the dream itself.
Danielle Lazier at Vivre Real Estate became our buyer’s agent, and she was exactly that person. She listened carefully, zeroed in quickly on what would feel like home to us, and brought real clarity to how our budget aligned with home values on the ground. She was direct and always available, without ever making us feel rushed.
We found a stunning co-op apartment in Russian Hill with breathtaking views. Danielle’s strategic pricing advice helped us craft a winning offer, and her expertise navigating the additional complexities of a co-op transaction was invaluable. She connected us with excellent vendors, guided us through contingencies, and kept us calm through closing.
If you’re a home buyer trying to navigate San Francisco’s uniquely complex real estate market, there is no one more qualified to have in your corner. She turned a vague old dream into our actual home, and we couldn’t be more grateful.
We recently purchased our second property with Josh + team! We love his transparent and practical approach. This was our first commercial purchase, and despite the learning curve for everyone involved, Josh navigated the complexities effortlessly while being proactive, informative, and a responsive along the way. Another benefit to the team is support after purchase; contractor recommendations, tax questions, navigating HOA, etc. Highly recommend!
We just closed on our second property with Josh and team, and we couldn't be happier! This was our first dip into commercial real estate, and there was a lot to learn, but Josh handled the extra complexity like a pro. We love how straightforward and practical he is—no fluff, all clarity and expertise. He stayed ahead of every detail and was always quick to respond. His approach kept us confident and ensured a seamless process from start to finish. Highly recommend working with Josh from Danielle Lazier's office at Vivre Real Estate.
