More Testimonials:

Dr Steven Vitcov, MD CPMC and Dr Ruby Ghadially, MD UCSF:
"She is really an amazing, talented agent, completely on her game. She knows the market inside and out, and she really knows how to close a deal. We were about to start a big remodel when we met Annie. She said she could sell our house and find us a new one, so we could avoid living through the remodel. We said,"Go right ahead - good luck!". It was the end of 2009. The real estate market was really dead. We thought she'd never do it.

"Sure enough, she found a buyer! We got our full asking price. She was magnificent. On the buy side, we managed to get our new house for substantially lower than listed, thanks again to her skillful negotiation. We both work full time (and then some). Annie chased us down and made it easy to sign papers, review offers, etc. I can't recommend her more highly."

Dan Carroll and Stasia Obremskey:
"Annie has helped us purchase both personal and investment properties in the competitive San Francisco market. In all cases, we worked with her to assemble key market intelligence, strategize on terms, package our offer so that it was the most attractive even though our offers were often below the market price. Her personal service doesn't end with the close of escrow; she follows up on countless details, connects us to important resources and understands our ongoing needs. Annie has caused us to break our hard and fast rule of not mixing business and pleasure, because she is fun to work with and a consummate professional."

Zeb and Kate Ripple:
"Annie is an excellent communicator, a problem solver and a highly effective negotiator. Her conscientious attitude was apparent through the entire transaction—marketing to escrow. We are thankful to Annie for helping us through the emotional and complicated process of selling our home."

Eric and Mindy Swagel:
"Annie helped broker both our new home purchase and the sale of our condominium at a time when the market was very difficult to read.  She was always respectful of our concerns and perceptions of value and allowed us to drive negotiations without pushing us toward any position.  At the same time, she made sure we understood market conditions and remained realistic.  She managed challenging personalities, a skittish lender, inspections, cold feet, and remained rational, focused, and ethical throughout."

Lisa Wilcox, Marketing Executive:
"Annie Williams is dedicated, responsive, tireless and creative. She is an excellent marketer. She also is fabulously upbeat and pleasant which makes her a pleasure to work with and, importantly, allows her to get along well with prospective buyers and sellers and their agents. Annie has endless resources and excellent suggestions. You can trust her gut. Annie Williams made the very stressful, high stakes real estate process manageable."

Charles E. Koob, Partner - Simpson Thacher & Bartlett:
"I have bought or sold residential properties in eight states. I have never worked with a broker who was more attentive, professional or efficient. She understood exactly what we were looking for and never contacted us about a property that did not meet our needs. She was a delight to work with. She went out of her way to arrange for inspections and repairs as we live in New York and could not deal with any of these issues from a distance. I will work with Annie again and would enthusiastically recommend her to any prospective buyer."

Robert M. Perkowitz, Columnist & Entrepreneur:
"Annie has helped us buy two homes and sell one in San Francisco, and we will go straight back to her on our next transaction. She is very sensitive to our needs during the process, supportive in all aspects of the transaction, and makes it as easy as possible. Annie is a great person to work with."

Grant Dollens, Entrepeneur:
"Annie worked to really understand our needs and desires for our property. She takes a long-term view of the relationship built throughout this process, and is not focused on the transaction alone. In our case, Annie got to know us, and what we desired, well enough to advise us against bidding on a property that wasn't exactly what we wanted. The patience she encouraged us to have paid off handsomely, as we later found the perfect home.

"Buying a home is an immensely personal experience, and we were happy to have Annie guide us through this process. We viewed her less as our realtor, and more as our advocate. We were confident that all the advice Annie gave us was in our best interest alone.

"We were first-time buyers, and Annie led us through the process with ease and professionalism, answering our questions and calming our fears all along the way."

Susan Marsch, Vice President and General Counsel - Redback Networks Inc.:
"If it weren't for Annie Williams, I'd never be in my own home. She had a keen eye in figuring out my needs and what was on the market that would work for me. She took all the time in the world to discuss the pros and cons of the homes and neighborhoods we looked at and made looking for a home in an incredibly depressing market one of the most positive experiences of my life. Because of her savvy negotiating ability, I purchased my home at a very reasonable price and how many people can say that now a days."

Fiona Wilson MD, Medical Director Internal Medicine Practice - Parnassus, UCSF; Vice President Quality Initiatives - Brown and Toland Medical Group:
"Annie was a fabulous agent to work with. She spent time with us initially to help us clarify what we wanted and what we really needed. She was energetic and flexible around our complex professional and family schedules. Her eternal optimism matched us and helped get us through a couple of outbidding offers. Ultimately with her help, we ended up buying the perfect house. She was equally helpful in the sale of our condo."

Leslie Jackson, Owner - L Designs Marketing:
"Being new to the San Francisco real estate market we were extremely overwhelmed. Annie took what could have been a very frustrating process and turned it into an uncomplicated, successful, FUN process. Annie was honest and dependable from the moment we met and she made our house hunt, and subsequent purchase, very stress-free. We enjoyed working with Annie so much we now consider her our friend as well as our agent."

Jason Senn, Strategic Partner Development - Google, Inc:
"From the moment we met Annie we found her to be upfront and extremely informed. She provided us with unparalleled support and was indispensable in helping us navigate our way through the purchasing process."

Lisa Renstrom Sierra Club - President:
"Annie is a delight. Great follow up and follow through, persistent and insistent, knowledgeable, but most important fun to work with."

Julia and Bill Brentani:
"There's no other way to say it other than, Annie found us our dream house! She figured out our wants and needs before we even knew what they were. She gave us the most personalized service we could have hoped for.

"She is the perfect guide for this tumultuous process. Annie is an extremely resourceful person--there is nothing she doesn't already know or can't find out in or about San Francisco."
