It was exactly one year ago that Jean-​Paul got our 2-​unit building in the Mission on the market with our hope of selling before the holidays hit. It was almost miraculous how quickly it all happened, but that attests to Jean-Paul’s experience, efficiency, and expertise as an incredible realtor. He established a time-​line and we quickly checked off each item on the list in order to get the building ready for an open house in around a month. Jean-​Paul has established relationships with professionals who helped in the staging, landscaping, painting, and general repair to help our building shine even more. In addition, he helped us facilitate a successful tenant negotiation so we could put the building on the market as fully vacant at complete of sale through his tenant attorney recommendation. He communicated with us daily to make sure we were aware of all updates and important information. We had an offer before we even held the first open house and he helped us through every step of the successful acceptance. Jean-​Paul knows the market incredibly well and knows how to identify and envision the perfect buyer. Could not recommend him more highly!

We recently worked with JP to sell our condo in San Francisco. After interviewing three others, we chose JP because of his knowledge of the local market, his proposed approach to marketing the property, and his past record of great sales that were similar to ours.
Working with JP was very easy. He was always responsive to our needs yet always willing to suggest different approaches. He took a very pragmatic approach to staging the property so it would present in the best possible way, and the marketing materials he produced were top notch.
He executed against the marketing plan quickly and efficiently and guided us wisely through the offer process. We closed quick and relatively painlessly because he was able to address any issue as it arose. Overall, we were very happy with all he did.
And, in the spirit of going beyond the immediate transaction, he was instrumental in helping me find a new place immediately.
No hesitation in recommending JP — and I will certainly use him when I want to buy or sell again.

Jean-​Paul was the realtor my wife and I recently used on the sale of one property and the purchase of another in San Francisco. He has been extremely helpful and nice and couldn’t have done better on both transactions. I could not recommend him more heartily. He is patient, good with details, prompt, expert, responsive, caring, persistent and has good values (he worked in urban planning for the city and has also done governmental/​legislative work) and a terrific understanding of the local markets and planned changes. His advice has uniformly worked out. His staff is excellent too. He has done a miraculous job for us on both of our transactions. He was able to understand our true needs and requirements and provide excellent advice based on our preferences; he was even able to help clarify those preferences. I don’t often endorse realtors. Jean-​Paul is just a gem.
