"As first-time home-buyers, Jane was a real God-send to my wife and me.  She held our hand throughout the process, from early open house visits through the signing of the papers.  At each stage we always felt that we had someone who was looking out for us, ensuring that we were making the right decisions.

"Jane has been a wonderful agent for us. We met her as the representative of the buyers of another property we owned. Jane was so amazing throughout the sale with her thorough communication, knowledge of the market and availability to us all. As a licensed agent I always felt comfortable that our property was well represented and placed in the market. Jane always found new, creative and fresh ways  to market our property and ensure a steady and high traffic flow of qualified buyers. I very highly recommend Jane Mermelstein as The Agent to represent you.

"Jane Mermelstein worked with my partners and me over an extended period of time to find our new home.  Jane was able to work with me to understand the San Francisco market and she presented buildings that fit our criteria on a regular basis.  With her assistance, I was an informed and educated buyer, even though I was living in the Midwest.  When the perfect two-flat building came along, Jane coached us in a successful, competitive bid on the Victorian home of our dreams.  Jane is a most patient Realtor who never pushed us.

"In early 2004, I decided to sell my house in San Francisco, which I had owned for over 35 years.  Jane impressed me with her knowledge, confidence and the fact that she wasn't pushy.  She helped me find the right people to paint and make repairs, get the house cleaned and ready (including a great gardener).  After I accepted a bid, she introduced me to movers, found hauling people to clean out my garage (remember, 35+ years) and had the house cleaned for the new owners.  She had answers to all of my questions (or researched and found them when she didn't know), and handled my moments

"Thank you, Jane for the very professional way you managed the sale of our home.  We are residents of Pennsylvania, so, out of necessity, you handled many of the details that we would otherwise do including the preparation of the house and grounds for sale.  You selected qualified people to do the work, including painting, stagers and gardeners and saw to the work getting done in a timely manner.  You kept us fully informed of the progress and always called when you said you would.

"Thanks for all of your help in selling our home in Noe Valley.  You are one cool, calm collected lady with great marketing savvy.  Please feel free to use us as a reference as you did a great job for us."

"Jane is great! Here's our story...We bought a Tenancy In Common (TIC) in 2007 with Jane as our agent. She has an encyclopedia-like understanding of all things real estate. Early on, we found a great one bedroom TIC at a good enough price. But we didn't buy it! She saved us from a future nightmare by being the only professional to notice an issue that would prevent this unit from every qualifying for a loan on its own following condo conversion. We pulled our offer at the last minute. Phew!

"Jane is an outstanding Realtor who helped us purchase our first home.  She is incredibly intelligent, thinks strategically, and exhibits very sound judgment.  Jane's past work experience as a principal at a management consulting firm, as well as her MBA from MIT's Sloan School of Business, enabled her to guide us successfully through the purchase of our first home.
