Danielle Lazier – Keller Williams

I cannot recommend Danielle highly enough. Danielle was able to sell my house within a month with no contingencies and all cash payment! She and her team are very customer oriented, and will drop everything to make sure her clients are served well, answering clients’ questions twelve in the morning. She is a very good problem solver and straight forward whenever she see any problems in your property. Her experience and connections in the real estate industry can help anyone who are thinking to sell their property. I am lucky that I hired her to help me selling my house. Selling your property is a life time decision and having someone like Danielle can help you able sleep every night before your house is sold. Whoever hires Danielle will not regret!!!

I can’t say enough good things about Danielle’s SF Hotlist team. I especially wanted to acknowledge Debbie Rutledge. My husband and I met Debbie at an open house early in the year and right away, she was super welcoming and attentive to our needs in helping us find our perfect home. After months of searching and just 2 offers later, we finally closed on our first home in San Francisco! Without Debbie, this would not have been possible. The entire process was flawless and she took extra time to make sure we were taken care of. Kudos to the whole team in being rock stars in the long home buying process! Don’t hesitate and give them a call!

It is a pleasure to recommend Danelle Lazier and Michael Minson. These two are a class act. We recently sold our home in Bernal Heights and it was teriffic working with them. Their knowledge of the market was awesome and they knew how to present our home in its best light. The proof is in the putting. We received 15 offers and the home sold for several hundred thousand dollars over the asking price. In addition they run a tight ship. Everyone on their team was very friendly, prompt and knowledgeable. We were kept in the loop on every detail and there were no surprises.
We had lived in our home for 25 years and Danielle and Michael were very sensitive to the emotional side of the sale as well.
We found them because we saw a video they did for another property in Bernal. The video was so clever that we called for an interview. We had a hunch that these two were the best agents that we could get and it turned out that we were right. We could not be happier with the experience and the results.
If you are considering selling your home you need to give these guys a call! They are simply the best at what they do.

Just a few months ago, my husband and I made the decision to purchase a home in Bernal Heights, one of the most competitive markets in the city. We met Lucas when we attended our first Open House. He was friendly and professional, not pushy at all. We did not have a real estate agent at the time, but we fell in love with the place. We had to act fast if we wanted to make an offer. So, Lucas came to the rescue. He had actually reached out to us, just as we were about to call him. It was a perfect match!
Lucas knew we wanted to be aggressive. Being relatively competitive people, my husband and I bought into his mantra, «We’re in it to win it!» We «lost» on our first offer but were more determined than ever.
Going into an open house with Lucas gave us confidence. As we walked through each house he pointed out both positives and negatives. He strategized and let us know whatever info he could get from the selling agents.
Not too long after that first offer, we fell in love with another house. We followed his advice and «won». Unfortunately that wasn’t the end. We had financing issues which was totally out of his control, but Lucas came to the rescue and did what he could. He wouldn’t let us lose the house and used his negotiating skills to get us an extension from the sellers, twice. Needless to say, we were stressed, but Lucas told us to hang in there.
Well, it all worked out and we were able to close and move in. Thank you, Lucas! I would most certainly recommend Danielle’s team and Lucas in particular.

No need to think twice. Sasha and her team are over the top the best professional agents you can find in the city. Sasha represented us as our buyer agent and as first time home buyers, it was the best decision we’ve ever made. After over a year of dealing with other agents that felt more like salesmen more than anything else, we were exhausted until we finally met Sasha at an open house, we knew right away she genuinely wants to help her local community find their dream home. And she did!
Sasha worked around the clock for us and as we had an insane amount of questions regarding every minor detail, I love how Sasha keeps her cool and calmness throughout the entire process and responds immediately no matter what time of day. She knows all the ins and outs of the industry and every trick of the trade. She’s transparent, no hidden agendas, really just trust her. Don’t think it’s impossible to find your dream home, just let Sasha and her team guide you and magic will happen.
After we just closed our deal, her entire team is on it with all the next steps, suggestions for moving contacts, the whole package. I can’t express how grateful we are to have found them! Thank you sfhotlist team!

It was a pleasure to work with Danielle, Debbie, and the rest of the SFhotlist team while purchasing property in San Francisco. It can be nerve-​wracking to buy in SF, but our experience was a smooth one due to the team’s responsiveness, support, and expertise throughout the buying process. What’s even more impressive is that the buying process is complete at this time, yet Debbie and Danielle continue to offer support as moving begins. We look forward to keeping in touch and recommend the team without reservation.

Danielle and her team are unlike any other real estate team I have worked with. When she asked us about how we wanted our custom designed marketing logo to be made, I knew we found the right team to sell our home.
You get a fully functioning real estate team when you buy or sell with SFHotlist. They handle all elements of the process diligently and professionally.
I will definitely leverage them again if the need arises.

This review is long overdue! We worked with Tanya Dzhibrailova and Danielle Lazier in 2011 when purchasing our first home. The whole experience was great and very smooth. They were very responsive and as soon as we were interested in making an offer on the condo they were on it. We bought the condo for a fair price and I felt like our best interests were really being looked out for.
Flash forward to January 2016. We decided to sell our house and relocate to Southern California. We reached out to Tanya and Danielle because they were so great to work with the first time and felt they would be the best to represent us in selling our home.
I had no idea how to best approach the move in terms of the logistics: packing, staging, moving out or living in the house while it was on the market, etc (all with a new baby!). After a 5 minute conversation with Danielle it seemed very obvious what the process needed to be. We moved out, the contractor came in for touch up and repairs, stager came in and made the house look amazing, there was a 2 week sales cycle with 2 weekends of open houses and a week night broker tour, and then offers were accepted. I could go on at length but in short Tanya and Danielle are awesome! Even though they are at two different agencies Tanya and Danielle really function as a team. They literally handled everything. We were kept in the loop with all the details, but they scheduled the inspections, hired the contractor, the stager, the photographer and it was all seamless to us. We were in communication throughout the whole process which was key. In talking to friends who sold their house at the same time as we did and even compared to our own experience in purchasing our new house I feel like they really went above and beyond the expectations of a real estate agent. I rarely needed to call to ask questions about anything because they had already prepared us or had called me. Before we listed the house we were asked what our priorities were. We wanted to get the best price that we could and wanted it done fast. Our expectations were truly surpassed. The offer that we accepted was much higher than we had hoped. That put us in a really good position when making an offer on our new house and ultimately we were the successful bidder. Once again it was a very smooth process and we felt very well taken care of. I know how crazy the SF real estate market is and how busy Tanya and Danielle both are, but they make you feel like you’re their only client.

We worked with Danielle and Zena to sell our 1 bedroom condo in North Beach last month and we would definitely recommend them! We appreciated the depth of their team and how easy they made the process for us in terms of setting up staging, painting, inspections, etc. We also were really impressed by the quality and attention to detail of their marketing materials. At Danielle’s recommendation, we had two weekends of open houses before accepting offers. We received 6 solid offers and were very happy with the offer we accepted. It was only a month from the time we moved out of our home until it closed (including painting, staging, photography, open houses, offers, and a 10-​day closing) which was really important to us since we had to pay rent on a temporary place and wanted to minimize the time of paying both mortgage and rent. The speed with which their team was able to get the house ready was a big selling point for us. Thanks Danielle and Zena!

Danielle and her team represented us in selling our Condo in the Mission District and buying a Single Family Home in Sunnyside. They delivered great results and made it as painless as possible for my family. When we found the home of our dreams, Danielle immediately got on it and our offer was accepted. The house was ours within a month! Then, She and her team did a wonderful job preparing our condo to sell. They quickly got the house staged, marketing materials out, and open houses/​brokers tours scheduled. We were planning to show the house two weekends before we started accepting offers, but we got three amazing offers after just the first open house!
I really believe Danielle’s professionalism and reputation helped us to quickly seal the deal on our dream house and also to get very solid offers on our condo. The best part about it all was that we did not have to get bogged down with any details. Danielle kept the communication high level (which we preferred) and only brought us into the details of the transaction if some input or decision was required from us. We had an unusual and frustrating situation with our HOA for our condo that we were selling which prolonged our escrow timeline, but Danielle and her team worked hard to get all of the required information and to not drag my husband and I into it unless it was necessary or would expedite things. I would definitely recommend Danielle and her team!

My husband and I had an amazing experience working with Debbie and Danielle to buy our first home. We started the house hunting process with a different realtor about a year ago and put several offers on houses with no luck. After being fed up with our previous realtor, we decided to give Debbie and Danielle a try and could not believe the knowledge, experience, and professionalism we had been missing out on. The first offer we put on a house with them was accepted and we moved in last week! Debbie and Danielle are straightforward and responsive and have been such a pleasure to work with. We could not have done this without them and definitely recommend Debbie and Danielle to anyone looking to buy a house in SF!

Lucas and Danielle were a fabulous team! We were reluctant home hunters at first, but with these guys on our side, we felt more comfortable jumping into the brutal SF market. From the start, Lucas and Danielle won us over with their knowledge, communication, and overall approach to buying. They regularly responded to our emails within minutes and were ready to take us to showings at the drop of a hat. They kept us motivated and pulled us through the hard times when our first two offers fell short. And when we were ready to give up, Lucas prompted us to take another look a home we had previously disregarded as being out of range. We were emotionally drained and afraid to get invested in a third home offer, but with Lucas’ guidance, we got our DREAM home! Thanks, Lucas and Danielle, for our perfect new place!

Danielle and Michael handled the sale of our house in Bernal Heights and were amazing! They were extremely organized, kept us updated throughout the process, and were very easy to work with. They guided us through the entire process and let us know exactly what to expect each step of the way. They work very well together as a team in both preparing the house for sale, marketing it, holding the open houses, preparing the brochures and on-​line listings. Their communications were clear and they were both patient in answering all of our questions. We could not recommend them more highly, especially if you are in the Bernal Heights market.

We worked with Danielle and Sasha for about 6 months as buyers in the San Francisco market. Buying a house in SF is a terrifying and stressful experience, but working with a knowledgeable and empathetic realtor helps alleviate some of that stress. Danielle took the time to talk to us about our needs and was diligent in sending us good options based on our budget and criteria. The relationship only improved as Danielle and Sasha spent more time with us and got a sense of what we were looking for.
When we were preparing our bids Danielle and Sasha walked us through each step and helped us understand the terms of our offer and made recommendations on how to make it more appealing to the seller. They even helped point us toward a good lender and we ended up getting a fantastic mortgage rate! While our bids were being looked over, they kept in constant contact with us providing updates about the status of our bid with the seller.
Danielle and Sasha are a great team we would recommend to anyone looking for a realtor in San Francisco!

We had both buying and selling experiences with Danielle and Lucas, and each of the transactions went smoothly and closed ahead of time. On the buying side, everything was pretty straightforward. Danielle was very up front about what our offer would need to be in order to secure the house. On the selling side, Danielle and Lucas handled getting the house ready to sell including staging, painting, landscaping, and minor remodels. They have a keen eye and made the house look great. It was a bit strange having contractors that we had not chosen work on our house, but we finally got used to the idea of removing ourselves and letting go and it worked out great in the end. Their creative team put together really nice, modern advertising materials with professional photos. Danielle kept us updated throughout the process and was very easy to communicate with at all hours. I loved all the electronic signing. Her team was very organized and we didn’t run into any problems.

If I could give Danielle MORE stars I would… she sold our home in San Francisco when we moved out of the state. So, we might recommend her to friends but the more than likely she wouldn’t be our personal realtor again. However, since our sale she has sent us 2 things that blew my mind. First we received a USB thumb drive with all of our closing documents on it. Score. All in one place! Then, just last week, she resent any documents that would be needed while doing our taxes for 2015. So, as she said in the note, we wouldn’t have to go looking for everything. I don’t think you see that kind of customer service often and she must be commended for her continuous professionalism and thoughtfulness. If you are in doubt — GO WITH HER!!!

Sasha is a great agent to work with. We may be doing another project in the near future and will go back to her. She is knowledgeable, committed, and had impeccable follow through at every stage of the deal. Communications lines were always open. Bottom line– Sasha got us a great home.
She nailed all the boxes– Updated Victorian, Great Neighborhood, Stunning views, professionally designed outside space, and separate garden level unit for relatives and visitors.

Lucas was great in helping with my search for my first apartment. Very knowledge and upfront about the process and setting expectations. Extremely responsive and ensured that all of our needs were met throughout the search, closing, and escrow process. It was helpful to have such a knowledgeable team while going through the process for the first time.

Thank you to Danielle Lazier and Michael Minson for your work in getting our home sold quickly. Danielle is well versed in a variety of marketing mediums and will employ all of them to get your home sold.

I have had the pleasure of working with Danielle and while I normally do not write Unilocal reviews I really wanted everyone to know what a pleasure it is to work with her. She is hardworking, genuine, knowledge of real estate industry standards, and an upstanding individual. Please trust me and for all real estate needs

Danielle was very professional and friendly on the phone.
She was extremely knowledgeable.
Throughout the process, she kept me updated and her communication was top notch.
this is exactly how a realtor most be !
I had referred many clients to her, I will continue to recommed Danielle every time.
Ihighly recommend Danielle as your only Bay Area Real Estate agent

Let’s start by saying that if it wasn’t for Debbie, my partner and I wouldn’t have bought the amazing apartment where we currently happily live. Debbie is exceptional and we couldn’t be happier with her.
My partner and I are first-​time home buyers so we didn’t have any previous experience in this (or any) housing market. Debbie has definitely been a very good adviser, a truly very valuable asset for us. With 15+ years of experience in the Real Estate industry she’s very knowledgeable and experienced and that was very important for us. Actually, this helps a lot in this industry. She knows other Real Estate agents and these relationships definitely played in favor of us.
She was very honest and direct with us which we really appreciated. She gave us the reality-​checks we needed and that helped us open our eyes in this changing and challenging housing market. She’s very down to earth, patient, committed, optimistic and fun! She’s been working hard in order to help us get our apartment in SF. She totally accommodated our work schedule and she was willing to meet us at any time during the day including weekends. She’s very very responsive and communicative which is tremendously important when purchasing a property. You are not buying candies, you are buying a property so you need someone who speaks the language of inexperienced people as well as someone who is willing to answer the phone or your emails after 10pm or on a Saturday afternoon. That’s Debbie!
Without doubt, we’d recommend her to our closest friends and family and to anyone who is thinking of buying a property.
Thanks a ton Debbie! We hope you keep helping many people buy their dream properties as you did with us.

I highly recommend Debbie to any buyers out there. San Francisco is a tough market, you need someone with experience and the right approach. The review below is from my partner Yon J., I second every word in it.
Thanks Debbie! And good luck everyone!

Danielle represented a buyer client that purchased one of my high dollar listings. I have had the pleasure of working with many of the best and brightest in the real estate business. Danielle was articulate, honest, clear and driven. She is gifted in the art of the offer and was able to come in with concessions that my clients didn’t even know they needed, she charmed both of my sellers. In fact the offer that Danielle submitted was lower than another cash offer yet she hit buttons my clients needed rather than focusing on price. Watching the way she connected and found what mattered was telling of her expertise, experience and knowledge. It is rare to come across an individual with power, grace, strength, knowledge and tact. Danielle’s ability to win a deal is bar-​none.

I recently worked Debbie Rutledge (and Daniel Lazier) to sell a flat in SF and upgrade to a larger place near the same area. As far as the selling side, Debbie was incredibly helpful, telling me what to do to make the place ready for showing/​selling, and acting as the showing agent. I got an excellent offer, over my asking within a short time of listing and I definitely attribute it to Debbie’s hard work.
On the buying side, I basically got my dream house because of how on top of everything Debbie and Danielle are. Debbie found me so many houses that were exactly what I was looking for, within the budget I had. And when it came to bid on the house, she & Danielle helped me write an offer that got accepted. I cannot recommend these two enough!

Debbie was an incredible agent and advocate for us– and absolutely an asset to have on our side as we took on the SF real estate market. Debbie was patient, optimistic, and perceptive. I was very impressed that within no more than 1hr of meeting us, she knew exactly what we were looking for in a home, neighborhood, and overall lifestyle in the city. Her deep relationships with the real estate community and listing agents put us at an advantage when submitting offers for homes. Debbie was amazingly generous with her time as well, always fitting us in to tour open houses. I genuinely believe that without Debbie’s guidance, we would still be in real estate purgatory– rather than settling in to our lovely new cottage home in Bernal Heights! Thank you, Debbie.

Sasha and Danielle sold our condo. We had an amazing experience, selling above ask in under a month. The result was a record high sale in our building.
They dominated every step of the process. Painting, staging, photography, open houses, negotiations, and closing. Each step along the way, they proved themselves. Each step, they connected us with experts who did amazing work. We felt confidence and trust in them throughout the entire process, and they delivered.
I highly recommend Climb, and Sasha and Danielle in particular. I would not hesitate to partner with them again.

Wish Sasha’s help, my wife and I just bought our first home in San Francisco. From the first time we talked to her on the phone through the final day of closing, Sasha has been absolutely superb. We interviewed 4 – 5 other brokers and met many, many others during our search — and I can honestly say there’s no one I’d trust more than Sasha.
Some of the reasons she’s great are because she is:
+ knowledgable, well organized and super responsive
+ willing to share her honest opinion whenever we asked (but also knows when to step back and leave the decision to us)
+ naturally really calm, low-​key, which inspires trust and confidence (especially during the more stressful moments)
+ really thoughtful in her recommendations and guidance
+ happy to go above and beyond for her clients (in our case, taking care of some details that the seller’s broker should have been handling)
+ great at explaining the process, the SF market, and any unexpected developments along the way
+ friendly and has a great, genuine sense of humor!
It’s been SUCH a pleasure working with her; I can’t recommend her enough to other potential home buyers or sellers.

Danielle is a badass and a smooth operator! Loved working with her to sell our Mission condo. She was supportive, effective, reliable and just plain cool to work with.
She got us an awesome price, with 2 months free rentback while we search for our next home… she was flexible and informative (how in the living heck can one person know SO much about this market and real estate in general??) and we liked working with her team at Climb alot (Brad, Megan and Debbie were awesome). Our stager, Della Wilson (Platinum Haus) transformed our place in a stunning way — very sophisticated and unique!
I think the best adjectives to describe Danielle as a professional is Driven & Cool.
We are fans!

Not only is Sasha super sweet but she’s professional and she get’s things done. Buying a house in San Francisco takes a lot of a lot of risk and energy but Sasha’s experience in this hectic market really came into play throughout the entire process.
She’s very responsive and as a first time buyer was patient with me and was able to explain the process and steps that I needed to take. Now that I have my home I completely trust her and feel relieved knowing that she was always looking out for me.

I am a Real Estate Broker in Placer County and I have a very important client, Thelma, whom needed to sell her home in the Bay Area. It was really important for me to find the right Real Estate agent for my client because she had already listed the home once and was unsuccessful in selling. I reviewed on Unilocal and called quite a few Realtors in SF and none of them impressed me until I called Danielle.
Danielle was very professional and friendly on the phone. She was extremely familiar and knowledgeable with the specific area Thelma’s home was located, so I knew she would be a perfect fit. Once she met with Thelma she was very patient and guided her seamlessly in preparing her home to sell. Danielle was so amazing she ended up getting Thelma multiple offers and closing for $ 200,000 more than list price.
Throughout the process she kept me updated and her communication was top notch which is exactly how I am as a Realtor. In fact, Thelma told me Danielle was the «San Francisco me.» Knowing she was being taken care of the way I have been taking care of her and her family cemented the fact that I had referred the right Realtor to her.
I will continue to recommend Danielle every time I need a professional, fantastic Realtor in San Francisco. I highly recommend securing Danielle as your next Bay Area Real Estate agent.

If you need to sell a home look no further.
Danielle and her team are professional and knowledgeable. The process was quick and efficient and her contacts through banking and title companies were a pleasure to deal with. No details needed, everything is taken care of. Period.

As of 2 days ago, we own an amazing house in the Mission, and without Danielle and Mike, I guarantee it wouldn’t have happened.
We were introduced to Danielle by a friend of ours who used her to help them find a house, and who had been thoroughly impressed. All the friends we asked about tips for how to choose an agent said to look for someone who really knows the area well, someone who knows and has good relationships with lots of other agents (because it’s a pretty small community, especially in SF), and someone who has a working style that works well with you.
From reading her bio, and from what we learned when we first met, Danielle clearly meets the first 2 criteria — she has a ton of experience working in SF for over a decade, and seems to know everyone. As to the working style, she and her partner Mike also make it clear in the initial meeting that it’s as important to them as it should be to you that your styles are compatible, because it’s such a word-​of-​mouth and review driven business that they really want to make sure everyone’s happy all the way through the process.
She also noted that most of their buyers get their 1^st offer, and those who don’t get their 2^nd. I think this statistic says a lot about why everyone is so happy with her — she makes sure that bids are competitive and realistic, and she knows the market well enough to help her buyers make winning offers. Given the craziness of the SF market, that’s huge.
She and her partner take the time to get to know you and what you’re looking for, and to really educate you on how the SF market works, what’s realistic and available for your budget, and what things you can do to make your odds better. Mike took us around and showed us all the properties in our price range in the areas we were considering, and gave us lots of insight into what makes one place more expensive than another, what’s normal and what isn’t, and what looked like good deals vs bad deals. He was incredibly helpful and supportive all throughout the viewing, thinking and bidding process, which can be crazy stressful.
The property we got was ridiculously hard to figure out a bid price on, because it was intentionally listed even lower than usual, it hadn’t been updated, and it had a huge unpermitted space downstairs with tons of potential. You really couldn’t price it directly with any comparable properties, because there really weren’t any. And yet, we ended up getting it for the low end of what she guessed it would sell for. We tied with another offer, and I’m sure the only reason they sold to us was due to Danielle’s recommendations for what to put in our offer, and her good working relationship with the selling agent.
Danielle and her partners also keep in touch after the sale, and want to make sure you’re happy in your home — need an architect, contractor, or interior designer? They’ll recommend ones they’ve worked with and trust.
I won’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone I know looking to buy in the SF area, and will absolutely return if and when we decide to sell and buy a new place.

I met Danielle through a networking group and was very impressed with her honesty, personality and enthusiasm. She is so active in her business and keeps herself really on top of what’s going on.
I haven’t had to opportunity to buy or sell a house with Danielle yet, but she did give us some great advice about how to prepare our home in the future for sale. She had solid tips about where to put money into our house.
When originally buying a home, I tried out 4 – 5 real estate agents and ended up being pretty dissatisfied in the end. If only I had known about Danielle at that time.
I recommend her to friends any chance I get and she recently just helped 2 of them purchase a lovely condo in Noe Valley. They were thrilled with her.
You want knowledgeable, friendly, professional real estate service? Call Danielle immediately!

When I decided to buy my first home, I knew I wanted help from people who were knowledgeable, well-​connected, professional, but still understand the emotional side to real estate. I found that in Danielle, and her partner Tanya.
They were highly recommended by a few close friends at work. Each of my friends praised the skill with which they helped them navigate the tricky SF real estate market to get into the homes that they love. I knew that I wanted a team like that in my corner.
After finding the house that felt like home, Danielle and Tanya helped me put together a strong, yet balanced, offer and a day later, Danielle left me the message that the house was mine (yay!)
Even now, Danielle and Tanya continue to help me with great recommendations for landscapers, handymen, and the like. They have made this whole process run so smoothly and I really couldn’t be happier.
I would use them again without question and am so grateful to them for helping me find my home.
