Real Experience delivers real results.

If you have a property to list or buy in South Beach or Rincon Hill, using Robyn is a no brainer. She knows this market better than anyone in SF. In some buildings she has probably bought  or sold a majority of the units.

I bought my unit at the Met from her as seller’s agent 15 years ago, and then engaged her as my agent to sell it last year. She takes care of absolutely everything. I gave her the keys, and then next time I set foot in the unit, it had been cleaned, painted, remodeled, staged — looked like a completely different condo. I didn’t have to lift a finger. I showed up for the first open house, it was in contract 36 hours later for a great price over asking.

I hate real estate agents in general, because in my opinion  a very large majority of them are unprofessional, ineffective and self-dealing. Robyn is at the absolute top of the game. One of the few who are absolutely worth every penny of the  commission. If you are transacting in real estate in South Beach / Rincon Hill / SoMa, the best decision you can make is to hire her.

Robyn Kaufman was our realtor when we started looking for a condominium in the SOMA district of SF 8 years ago. She not only found something for us immediately, but worked tirelessly to make the transaction happen as quickly and smoothly as possibly (given my husband decided to make this purchase just two months before our wedding day). A few months ago we decided to make the move to Marin. Robyn found our ultimate dream home in Tiburon with what we think must be the absolute best view in all of the Bay Area. We looked at a total of 10 homes before finding this one which just goes to show how well Robyn understands the needs and wants of her clients. Robyn is professional, reliable, responsive, sharp, proactive and will always go the extra mile for you even after your purchase with anything and everything you may need. We just recently decided to sell our condo and Robyn found a buyer quickly and we closed in 14 days with an all cash offer. Thank you Robyn. My husband and I HIGHLY recommend her.

Thank you Robyn for selling our Mission Bay Condo. We loved working with you. You’re professional, pleasant and understood our needs. Especially appreciate your quick and helpful responses. You took the stress away from the whole process.

I would recommend Robyn to anyone who wants to buy or sell a condo in SF Bay area. We have dealt with many agents in the past but no one that I know was able to get the job done the way Robyn did.

If you are wanting to sell or buy in the luxury condo market in SF, Robyn Kaufmann is the best. She is extremely knowledgable, professional and hardworking. My husband and I owned a very nice unit in a great building in SF but had high fees for a one bedroom condo which narrowed the target audience. Robyn was patient and dedicated and came through in a tough situation. She worked creatively to sell our unit and operates with grace and the highest integrity. She is a great negotiator and worked hard to insure we got a fair price and that every detail of the sale was attended to. Also, she is simply a wonderful person and a pleasure to work with. Thank you Robyn!!

If you are looking for a professional, honest, hardworking, knowledgeable, experienced, resourceful realtor, I highly recommend Robyn Kaufman. I came to know Robyn over a decade ago. Our family met her when the Metropolitan was on the market in 2004. Recently Robyn helped my husband and I sold a unit in Mission Bay. She helped us with many tasks to get the condo unit prepared for the market, from finding reasonable painters, stagers, cleaners to hardwood floor installers. She even scheduled the loading dock for us! Her initiation, effective, strategic planning made selling the unit a simple and stress-free process. She sold our unit in less than a week it was on the market. My husband and I are very grateful and appreciative to have Robyn as our realtor.

Robyn Kaufman is simply the best of the best in San Francisco. She expertly guided my wife and I through the purchase and sale of our property – from viewing to close.

She first helped us buy an amazing condo in the city, upon relocating to the bay area. Unexpectedly, our situation changed, and we needed to sell the same condo within 4 months of purchasing it.

Robyn put together an amazing plan to sell our unit, that not only lead to a preemptive offer, but an offer that was more than 7% higher than our purchase price.

Robyn is fun, a consummate real-estate professional and a ferocious advocate for her clients.

– Sid L.

What can I say about Robyn? She helped us purchase our condo at the Metropolitan back in 2004, and when we found a property in Tiburon we wanted, we had to sell the Met condo quickly. Robyn worked tirelessly to make it all happen for us. She is our “go-to” realtor and now our wonderful friend. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

– Melissa U.

“Robyn is awesome! I have been so amazed by all of Robyn’s incredible work, and I really appreciate all of her expertise in these very complicated transactions! She is such a hard worker with incredible energy and spirit.”

– Renee H.

“I cannot believe how much I got for my unit! Robyn is my go-to realtor. Prime price, quick sale, personal service. Thank you so much for raising all of our property values!!”

– GM, Esprit Park

“Robyn was my realtor 11 years ago when I purchased 2 condos from her in SOMA. I came back to Robyn last September 2016 to assist me in selling my condo, after initially trying to sell through another realtor, which was a disaster. I am so happy I did. Robyn goes beyond the average realtor to make sure your property is presented in the utmost of elegance. She treated me with respect and honesty. She was patient with me throughout the process and my stressed moods at times. She acted fast knowing I was on limited time with the bank to get it sold before foreclosure. She got it sold in a little over a month, in a saturated, competitive real estate market. Robyn did not make cost of contractinng or staging an issue. She stepped out of the box to do what needed to be done. And for that I am very grateful and appreciative!

Thank You Robyn!”

– Elaine T.

“Robyn is truly the best. I wouldn’t trust anyone else to help me buy or sell a house in SF. She is truly an expert!”

– Melissa P.

“We love having Robyn in our building. Her standards are superior to most agents we deal with. She takes such pride in matching residents in buildings which fit their needs and interests.”

– GM, Action Property Management Company

Robyn recently listed and sold my condo at the Met. We got a great a price and had multiple offers. Robyn also helped make the transaction very quick and easy. Although I have several agents that I have worked with in the past, I approached Robyn for this transaction because she had previously sold the condo to me several years back, and I was really impressed with her knowledge of South Beach real estate. She also did all showings herself and was always accessible throughout the process.

– Arash Eternad

After meeting with a few different agents my instincts told me to list my condo in SOMA with Robyn. I’m SO glad I did! She is everything you want in a real estate agent… smart, savvy, attentive and a total class act. Robyn developed a listing strategy that ultimately led to a sale at 10% over asking after just two weekends of open houses. Robyn is on top of every detail and knows how to play the market dynamics in various neighborhoods around S.F. She has set record prices p/sq. foot in every building she’s sold in. If you’re looking for someone to help you with your home sale…stop right now and call Robyn!

– Jeff Minich

Robyn is very well connected in San Francisco real-estate circles and has a considerable network to draw on whether you intend to buy or sell. I worked with her for around a year submitting offers on a number of places and always appreciated her work ethic and insight on the market. She has sold literally hundreds of places in South Beach and beyond and always has a good attitude with clients, even if the process of buying in San Francisco is not always as straightforward as it could / should be. I would recommend her for anyone looking at a condominium in the Soma/South Beach/Financial District area.

– Brian Lucas

Robyn Kaufman is the only Realtor I would ever consider for buying and selling a property in SF. I have experience working with Robyn for both. She helped my husband and I buy a home in Mission Bay, sell it as well as helping us both buy new properties. She gets to know her clients so that she can match what SF has to offer to each persons unique style and requirements in a home. Robyn is strategic in how she approaches pricing a property as well as where to come in when purchasing. I trust her implicitly. She goes above and beyond for her clients and knows SF condo’s better than anyone. She can tell you the pro’s and con’s of every building as well as the historical perspective and trends in sales. She becomes a partner in making a critical decision on where to invest in your new home.

Robyn is incredibly responsive and is seamless in walking you through the complicated process of buying and selling a home. She is present at every meeting, signing and interaction explaining in detail the process and implications of each step along the way in order to ensure you are set up for success with your new home. She never misses a detail and is always looking out for the best interest of her clients. Her sophisticated professional approach is such a pleasure to work with!

– Melissa Prygoda

Robyn helped me purchase two properties in San Francisco recently. She was on both occasions professional, dedicated, savvy, and effective. She was able to negotiate price and terms that were most advantageous. I recommend her without any hesitation.

– Jaime Alcabes

Extremely professional and hard working. Robyn took the time to show me a ton of properties and successfully negotiated the purchase of the perfect house. She is seemingly always at the ready to answer questions, I’m not sure she ever takes a day off.

– Sam Alcabes

I have worked with Robyn as a buyer as well as a seller in my previous 6 transactions. I was completely satisfied with her dedication and effort and the results exceeded my expectations. In my purchase and resale of a condo at the Madrone, Robyn went above and beyond her duties as I was living in the East coast. And the condo sold for way over the asking price! She provided me with her expert opinions regarding the desirable features of a particular unit and helped to coordinate all the activities during the resale of my condo such as home staging and painting. She worked tirelessly and was very prompt in responding to my emails and phone calls. She is the ideal of what a realtor should be and I highly recommend her service. Thanks, Robyn!

– Dr. Jonathan Tran

Kudos to Robyn Kaufman on selling my unit at One Rincon Hill today. She diligently worked me through the process in a very professional manner. She crafted a bullish plan which produced multiple offers for my unit resulting in well over asking price. She also made the effort in providing me with personalized attention during a difficult transition period when my tenant was still occupying the unit. She appreciated all the design efforts which upgraded the unit and marketed it as a unique listing through Christie’s International Real Estate. Great job.

– S. Fred Schiffman

Robyn is an expert in the San Francisco luxury market, with full understanding of the pulse of the real estate market to price the property competitively. Our investment condo at the Metropolitan received an offer over our asking price soon after it was listed. Robyn is meticulous and detailed oriented. With her exquisite taste in design, she supervised the decorating and staging, with a contemporary style of understated elegance, enabling us to fetch the top price for the condo. Her endless energy, marketing skills and acumen will definitely benefit all prospective clients in their real estate investments.

– Ann Kong

Working with Robyn was an amazing experience! We moved before our home was listed and she handled all the details of a home stager, open houses, meeting the prospective buyers as needed, etc. Honestly I don’t know if we could have done it without her! Our home sold quickly, efficiently, and without problem under Robyn’s steady eye. She also helped us negotiate the best terms possible and gave us solid data to back up every decision we had to make. She was available any time I had a question and made sure to respond quickly as the inevitable issues arose. I cannot recommend Robyn enough!

– Kathy Wheat

If you are looking to sell, buy or lease in the SOMA, South Beach SF neighborhoods, there is no other go-to agent than Robyn Kaufman. As a TOP PRODUCER, she has consistently provided value performance, high energy, and maximum returns for her clients. Robyn exudes elegance, taste, and a vibrant love of the City she knows so well. Armed with her vast network, knowledge and experience in marketing, valuation, and staging for maximum exposure, Robyn has recently sold a condo above our asking price at the Metropolitan. Once you’ve worked with Robyn, you will come to appreciate her professionalism, and the three E’s – Efficiency, Expediency, and Effectiveness.

– Jane Pao

Robyn was wonderful to work with! Not only did she sell our South Beach condo quickly, getting us a cash offer at listing price, but found us a new home within our budget and timeline in a very competitive market. We were extremely pleased! We really appreciate that she helped us keep our bearings through what is usually a stressful and emotional process. Robyn is knowledgeable and was 100% dedicated to us with prompt and valuable feedback. We couldn’t be happier and love our new home!

– Heejo Baek and Ken Burnstein

We have worked with Robyn on a number of transactions and would highly recommend her. My husband and I were transferred back to NYC with Citi Group and were required to move quickly. Robyn listed our home at The Infinity and sold it for more money than we thought we would get. Not an easy feat in today’s market.

– Ada Lien and Chris Snider-Sellers at The Infinity

Robyn sold our condo at The Metropolitan and we bought at Millennium Tower. In this market we wanted a tenacious agent that gave our property a lot attention. Robyn was on her game 24/7. She lives in the neighborhood and is an expert in the marketplace. I highly recommend Robyn to everyone!

– Dr. Vicki Agnost- Seller at The Metropolitan

Robyn sold my home for full price in a very difficult market. Robyn’s a super star real estate agent.

– Josephine Jimenez-Seller at 199 New Montgomery

We decided to sell our condo at One Rincon Hill while the developer was still selling the new condos. It was a very dark and difficult time to sell. Robyn marketed our property with skill and style and got it sold for top dollar in today’s market. No one works harder than she does. Robyn shows up and tells the truth. We go to Robyn for all of our real estate needs!

– Mimi Yang-Seller at One Rincon Hill

Robyn sold my condo quickly and for the price I wanted, what more could I ask?

– Scott MacVicar-Seller at The Met

Robyn is the best real estate agent I have ever worked with. She’s a real go getter and got our property sold. In this difficult market and with The Met under construction, Robyn was able to get us a price we could live with. No one else could have done what she did-period.

– Paul Ecke-Penthouse Seller at The Met

If you are selling or buying a high-rise condo in San Francisco, you will not find a better agent than Robyn Kaufman. She is extraordinarily professional and competent and unfailingly pleasant and cheerful. Robyn recently listed and sold my unit at the Metropolitan. It had been leased for a few years and needed considerable work before being placed on the market. Robyn drew on her vast network of connections to handle every detail of those improvements and obtained favorable prices for all of the work. Once the condo was ready for the market, it sold in three days for considerably more than the asking price. In fact, my unit achieved the highest price per square foot yet seen at the met. Hire Robyn! You won’t be disappointed
