PASSIONATE

Julie strives to transform complex and arduous transactions into understandable and enjoyable experiences. She is well liked and respected by her colleagues and is recognized by her genuine character and warm disposition. She enjoys meeting new clients and likes the personal nature of real estate sales because each success leaves her rewarded both emotionally and professionally.

Julie’s interest in real estate stems from her passion for photography, history and architecture, and strong desire to help people. When she is not exploring new restaurants or buying shoes in Hayes Valley, you are likely to find Julie behind an enlarger at the Harvey Milk Photo Center. She is an accomplished photographer and enjoys taking and printing pictures the old fashioned way, with film and in a darkroom. Vintage photos of Paris, Venice, New York and San Francisco inspire her, but it is her love of dogs that captures her heart and lens. She is currently working on a book of dog portraits which she hopes to have published in the future.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

“Julie was great during the entire process of selling my condo. She took special care in every detail along the way and communicated the process during each step. Julie’s sound advice, professionalism, and delightful spirit made selling my home a stress-free experience. She’s going to help me get into my next home!  Thanks!”

Mark Nitsche, San Francisco, CA

“Julie’s knowledge of the real estate markets in San Francisco and the East Bay is remarkable. Within one year she helped our family to quickly and efficiently complete the purchase of a condo in San Francisco and a home in the East Bay. I greatly appreciate both her professional expertise and her warm demeanor and would definitely recommend Julie to any friend or colleague.”

Bob & Gail Ward, Lafayette, CA

“A year after Julie helped us buy our home in Berkeley, she expertly guided us into the purchase of a multi-unit investment property in San Francisco. We have purchased investment properties in the past, but this was our first experience with tenant occupied property subject to the San Francisco Rent Control Ordinance. Julie paved the way through the arduous roadblocks that appeared throughout this difficult transaction and helped us secure a valuable property at a great price!”

Peter & Katrine Shelton, Berkeley CA

“Not only was I a first-time home buyer in the San Francisco marketplace, but I was purchasing new construction as well. This was a laborious process, but Julie was there to assist every step of the way. She was patient, understanding, and always willing to help.  I found Julie to be very reliable and helpful with such a stressful and important decision.  I never felt alone during this process and felt grateful to have her representing my interests.  She has also been very helpful to me after the sale.  Julie is someone who has your best interest at heart.”

“Julie helped us purchase a two unit building in 2004. Three years later when we were ready to sell a 50% interest in the building, Julie was there to guide us through this complicated process. She truly went above and beyond, taking care of every detail and ensuring a smooth transaction. She was available whenever we needed to reach her and worked very hard to help get our house ready for sale. Thanks to Julie we received several offers on the property. When it came down to finding the right TIC partner Julie was there to help interview all the potential buyers. We are very happy with our new partners and it was truly a pleasure working with Julie.”

Mark & Heather Moore, San Francisco, CA

“Julie helped us purchase our first home. Two years later we decided to sell our home and look for something larger. Not only did we need to get the best price for our home, we needed to purchase and move into a new home in time for the birth of our first child! We found our dream home and Julie negotiated the winning bid, beating out several other offers. She also found buyers for our listing and helped us through a difficult but ultimately successful close of escrow. We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell.”

Liza Loeffler & Lulu Cunningham, Berkeley, CA

“I can`t say enough nice things about Julie! You expect a real estate agent to handle all the time-consuming and confusing paperwork (which she did). But what Julie brings is so much more: a thorough knowledge of the housing market and the people skills to make things happen. I`ve retained Julie to both buy and sell properties, and she always brings a calming efficiency to the process. Whenever I needed something, she was readily accessible via cell-phone or email and offered quality guidance. Recently, she helped me buy a new house and sell our old house in 2 months – wow! I will definitely be using Julie again in the future.”

Ken & Maria LaMance, San Francisco CA

“Julie handled everything necessary to get my two investment properties ready for sale, from hiring and supervising the contractors to picking paint colors and countertops. She put me in touch with a great 1031 exchange company, and worked diligently to find me the perfect replacement property. Julie is the most professional and experienced agent, with an attitude of going the extra mile in order to complete a transaction. I am happy to tell my friends what a great agent I have. Thank you Julie!”
