Taylor Flaherty

Taylor is the best. End of story.
Taylor is extremely knowledgeable, competent and thorough. In our first meeting with him, he wanted to ensure we understood the home buying process through and through. We spent about 3 hours (late on a Thursday evening) discussing what we should expect and how to go about this the right way. We could immediately tell that Taylor really cares a great deal about his customers and makes every experience personal based on their needs and wants.
We were extremely happy and grateful for the way he was always on top of our buying process, guiding us and following up on our very many questions — We certainly appreciated his patience with us as first time homebuyers! He really went above and beyond to orchestrate our experience with all the moving parts that come along with home buying, even when he was abroad on vacation. If there were any delays or unknowns, Taylor was very communicative with us so there were no surprises in our expectations. We could not have done this without Taylor’s help– If you’re looking for a real estate agent, do yourself a favor and call Taylor. You won’t regret it.
Thank you, Taylor! See you at the house warming :)

Taylor is excellent and is very knowledgeable about his business and the real estate market. More importantly he takes his time when talking to his clients and really understands what his buyers are looking for. As a lender, I enjoy working with Taylor because he is very thorough and understands the lending process. Highly recommended!

Taylor is a great guy, and a fantastic agent. As a lender, I’ve worked with Taylor many times, and I understand the importance of working with a great agent. I’ve found Taylor to be competent, tenacious, honest and hard-​working. I would highly recommend working with Taylor if you’re looking to buy or sell.

As first time home buyers searching in a crazy market Taylor helped us feel informed and supported the entire way.
Taylor amazed me at how often he went above and beyond. He kept our spirits up during a long journey, helping us to negotiate effectively and keeping me feeling involved (from 3,000 miles away in NYC!) with youtube open house videos, late-​night emails, weekend texts, google spreadsheets and payment calculators.
Highly recommend!

I had the pleasure of working with Taylor to find an investment property in Oakland. Beyond being extremely knowledgeable and professional, he always goes the extra mile to make sure you get the full picture of not only the specific property you are buying, but also share with you insights about the neighborhood it’s in and all the other important things to consider while evaluating a property. With Taylor, you can trust that all the bases are covered and he’ll find you a property that meets all your criteria!
What a great agent!

Let me start with: Taylor found us a house in May 2015 and if you have any idea of how crazy the market was at this time you will have an idea of how impressive Taylor is! Taylor was very friendly and professional from the moment we met him. The house we ended up purchasing with him was our first house and he put up with the numerous nit-​picky questions I had for the six month span that we worked with him. For example there was the day before we put in an offer that we texted him at two in the morning and he replied within seconds and then the next day he was corresponding with us at seven in the morning. We were extremely impressed. Being new home buyers he made us feel very comfortable and answered all of our questions in detail and never got frustrated. He was willing to meet with us late in the night to discuss the practicality of putting in an offer on a house (nearly until midnight on two occasions). Every time we were interested in seeing a house he would call the seller’s real estate agent and schedule an appointment and would meet us at every open house we went to and he was always on time. The strongest characteristic of Taylor’s is his PERSONALITY. He can talk to anybody and get a lot of information which is a huge advantage in real estate. Every time we were bidding we had a very good idea of what the competitive bids were. We bid on three houses: 1^st and 2^nd time: we received the opportunity to counter bid; 3^rd time we underbid by $ 57,000 and our offer was accepted. He fought for us on many occasions and saved us a lot of money because of that. He also didn’t try to pressure us to purchase; he always made sure we were comfortable financially every time we decided on an offer price. It was an absolute pleasure working with Taylor and we’d recommend him in a heartbeat.

Taylor is one of the most effective people I’ve ever worked with. He is a clear and prompt communicator with a wealth of knowledge on real estate and is relentless in his drive to look for suitable property for his clients. I’ve never met anyone with so much passion for what they do!
In my experience working with Taylor, he was always very professional and knowledgeable. I enjoyed his straightforward business style and always felt I could trust him to look out for my best interests. Looking for housing in San Francisco was pretty intimidating, but having Taylor there to help me navigate the process made it infinitely easier. He’s smart, honest, and above all — very knowledgeable.
Taylor answered all my questions on real estate — which neighborhoods were safe, what my best financing options were, whether I should rent/​buy, whether the price on a property was good/​bad… the list goes on. He was always willing to pour a lot of time into researching properties for me and really listened to try to understand what kind of property would be ideal for me. He placed my best interests first and made it his top priority, which I appreciated very much.

Words can’t do justice to how Taylor is such an incredible real estate agent — but I’ll do my best. I’m completely new to the real estate space and trying to enter the housing market in San Francisco is an overwhelming and daunting task. Taylor answered my endless stream of questions promptly and patiently. (Thank you!)
Taylor is extremely thoughtful and considerate. He addressed my concerns about living in certain neighborhoods and he is very knowledgeable about San Francisco. With my budget, I knew my options were quite limited, but Taylor was always on the lookout for hidden gems of apartments.
I highly recommend Taylor to anyone looking for property in San Francisco. He is a phenomenal agent!
