Rebecca has been our agent for four years and has helped us buy our home and now sell it in San Francisco. She is a consummate professional and manages the selling process from beginning to end. She calmly and expertly coordinated house prep, staging, marketing, offer negotiations, and the closing. She was able to sell our home at a price well above what we thought was possible and even above the asking price in a very difficult market with growing headwinds. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a property in San Francisco.

Testimonials
Nothing is impossible. This is what not only Rebecca used as the mantra for my home search in San Francisco, but for the way she goes about her craft. I have been lucky enough to experience this first hand. I moved to SF on December 4, 2021, and met Rebecca shortly thereafter (recommended by a friend). Her professionalism, experience, sophistication and poise were immediately evident and I knew that I was in good hands. I asked her the impossible. As a Canadian citizen, with no credit history in the US, I told her that I had a personal goal (and dream) to be in my dream home by my 40th birthday in 5 months. Not only did this dream come true thanks to Rebecca, but she exceeded it by 2 months!
What sets Rebecca apart is her client service. Not only did she find me my dream home - in record time - but she connected me with the city through recommendations on daily activities, restaurants and most importantly an equally as excellent loan manager at Wells. This, of course, for Rebecca came easily and was quite natural. My search had its emotional ups and downs as most home searches do; however, I always felt that Rebecca had my back and consider her a friend.
Thank you Rebecca for your diligence, professionalism, customer service, friendship and thoughtfulness to every detail. I’m so excited to start my life in my dream home! Nothing is impossible :)
— JENN, BUYER
In all of my years of working in property management and construction in the Bay Area, I have met a lot of agents. I was genuinely blown away by how professional, detail orientated, caring, and truly dedicated Rebecca Hoffman is when working with and for her clients. Rebecca embodies the phrase going above and beyond in every interaction she has, with everyone she interacts with, from the doorperson of a building to the A-list clients she serves. Rebecca is warm, hardworking, and kind. I would trust her to manage any level transaction from start to finish and feel fortunate to work with her in serving our shared clientele. She is a true partner who enjoys exceeding any need, task, or expectation thrown at her. Rebecca is grace under pressure.
— BARBARA,
I was thrilled by Rebecca’s performance in selling our San Francisco home. I have been involved in the sale of over a dozen homes in the past 20 years, and this sale was the smoothest transaction to date.
Rebecca understands the market well. She identified the type of buyers most likely to pay top dollar for our property. and developed an outstanding marketing plan targeted to those buyers. Her insights were translated into action, helping us identify the best staging company, developing professional marketing materials, and holding effective open houses and showings. In each of these steps, Rebecca was extremely proactive, ensuring that everything was completed to the highest standards.
Rebecca helped us evaluate the interest of various potential buyers, and ultimately identified ideal buyers who were willing to pay an attractive price for the property. Once under contract, Rebecca continued to ensure that every step of the closing process worked smoothly. The sale closed smoothly.
Rebecca was available at all times, and responded immediately to all inquiries. I can honestly say I viewed this as the perfect transaction and have already recommended her to friends.
Thank you so much for all your help. Your performance was simply the best.

There is no one like Rebecca. Period. She is the perfect mix of practical, professional, aggressive, compassionate, and understanding … any one of those characteristics would be a real find in a real estate agent. Rebecca has them all.
I was casually interested in buying an upper end rental property as an investment in a great neighborhood in SF. No real budget, no neighborhood preference and no rush. Not the profile of a ‘dream client’. She stuck with us and found a perfect Pacific heights 2 Bedroom apartment for us. What I love about Rebecca is that she really listens. Plus she just plain cares. As this was an investment, the numbers had to work…….she did an amazing amount of legwork looking at rental prices in the neighborhood, trends, even got other real estate rental agents in to view the apartment to estimate my potential rental income from the property. She even found me some potential rentals through her connections. And most of this happened before I even made a decision to buy or not.
She is a brilliant strategist, understanding how to position the offers (we did 3 on the same property) and through the whole process I felt like I was working with a partner….someone who wanted this property and this decision to work long term. Plus, she just made it a lot of fun. I want to buy something else, just to be able to keep working with Rebecca! Rebecca is an elegant, informed, excited and grounded person and a true pro. We love Rebecca. Don’t even consider working with anyone else.
— KEVIN C., BUYER
Rebecca helped me find a house in San Francisco in one of the more competitive real estate markets in history. Six cash offers, no contingencies, but with Rebecca on my team, we navigated the waters and got it done. Couldn't be happier with the process and the result!
— ISAAC, BUYER
Rebecca is meticulous in her approach to the details, possessing a kindness that is pervasive, with a steadfast and optimistic attitude that I believe is just part of her character - it's what makes the difference.
Thanks again, Rebecca, and please stay in touch. - I know you will!
— PETER , BUYER AND SELLER
My personal assistant and I were amazed that the sale of my beautiful home happened so quickly and easily! I wanted a stress-free, high-priced sale and that is exactly what you provided! You always put my interests first.
Clearly, your marketing plan was impeccable. Your strategies got me top dollar results. Your YouTube video for the property and neighborhood was lovely and received more than 425 views.
I know you hired the best photographer in the City, and created a gorgeous website for the property.
You spread the word about the home throughout the broker community, across the City and region and around the world. You personally provided tours of the home and building to every interested buyer and agent.
We locked in a contract after just two Sunday open homes and three broker open homes and closed with a great buyer for a price I was thrilled to get!
I know there were challenges; one being there weren't many comparable sales for the building. And of course this all took place while the Giants were in the playoffs and the World Series, and we were having a presidential election. Everyone was a bit distracted. The sale was complicated, yet you handled all the details with grace, ease and a friendly demeanor that made the sale from my perspective, so easy!
Thank you, Rebecca. I highly recommend you to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.
— BERNARDO , SELLER
Thanks to Rebecca, we are currently in the process of moving into a new home that we love after a relatively short search in a highly competitive market. Rebecca is knowledgeable, dynamic and strategic, and has an innate understanding of her field. We would strongly recommend her services to anyone looking to buy a home or even just wanting to learn more about the real estate landscape.
— JACOB, BUYER
I’m writing to share what a wonderful experience we had working with Rebecca Hoffman. Rebecca guided us through every last detail of our recent home sale and was just a pleasure to work with. She was forthright, sincere and incredibly responsive—answering our many emails and calls so promptly that I’m not sure when she sleeps.
In addition to her strong knowledge of the market, we really appreciated her warm personality and total patience in guiding us through our first home sale-experience. We asked her a million questions and often got lost in the flurry of paperwork. But she gently and diligently kept us on track and just made the whole process quite breezy.
We were so pleased with her attention-to-detail as well as her interest in our well-being throughout the process. I think Rebecca really loves her work and cares about people. We felt lucky to have worked with her.”

We are happy to tell everyone how wonderful it was to work with you! Also, we are happy to be added to your list of references as well!
Rebecca makes dreams come true. She helped us find the perfect house (during the pandemic!). Along the way, she helped educate us on the nuances of the ultra-competitive San Francisco real estate market. Rebecca is meticulous in her attention to detail and advocated for us tirelessly. We are so thankful to have had Rebecca by our side throughout the home buying process and cannot wait to work with her again!
— KAREN AND DANIEL, BUYERS
Rebecca is unequivocally exceptional. We worked with numerous agents before finding Rebecca and it became instantly clear she is a true professional intimately knowledgeable about the local marketplace and fully versed in all aspects of finding a home, placing a competitive offer, and closing within record time. She knows all the nuances and quirks of buying in SF and constantly made us feel as though we were her only clients by working tirelessly to find our dream home and always making herself available. She is a wonderful agent and has become a cherished friend - we can't recommend her enough!
— BALINT AND ANDREA , BUYERS
Over the course of two years, Rebecca was very supportive, responsive, and professional during our property search. She was patient throughout the process as we considered large, small, fixer, and turnkey properties. She promptly arranged showings and re-showings and updated us regularly about properties of interest. Once we finally decided, the purchase went without a hitch. Thank you, Rebecca!
— TRACY AND PHILIP, BUYERS
Rebecca proved herself to be a confidence-inspiring, dedicated, flexible agent for us yet again, during the recent purchase of our second home. She'd come directly from the airport to meet us for showings, was incredibly responsive day or night to our questions and concerns (text, email, phone, in-person meetings),and shepherded our escrow along with the experience of a pro. With the upcoming sale of our current home, she is showing even more of the dedication we came to appreciate working with her, hustling to show our property off market at any chance while we prepare the property for sale. We're very happy to have such a reliable partner helping us to navigate the San Francisco real estate market.
— KEVIN AND MEGUMI S, BUYERS, SELLERS, BUYERS
Dear Rebecca,
You are the most skillful and hardworking Realtor I have ever met. That is saying a lot because after all these years of being in my business and living in San Francisco, I know a lot of Realtors!
This was a wonderful and smooth sale. I am thrilled!
— JULIANNA , SELLER
Words can’t describe how great our experience with Rebecca has been! First, she helped me buy a beautiful SF condo that was the perfect fit for me. She pointed me in the right direction and helped make the close seamless! She then helped my husband and I sell that condo almost three years later and it was a dream sale. She is professional, sophisticated, smart, communicative and very efficient. We trust her implicitly because she knows her craft and the result was a superb execution and a quick and profitable sale! Not only that, but she was lovely to work with, and made moving a painless process with a friendly face. We are so grateful to have found her and would recommend her to anyone and everyone looking to buy or sell in San Francisco!
— JESSICA , BUYER AND SELLER
We worked with Rebecca to find our condo in the City. Rebecca is highly professional, very organized, energetic and thorough. She is also intuitive and found the kind of places to show us that suited our needs. She never tried to move us to a higher price point and was always encouraging. Her efficiency was such that we spent only parts of two days to find the right spot. It was her knowledge of the City that brought us to the place we purchased. We would not have thought of that particular location, but it is perfect for us. It seems she loves her job, because she is always cheerful and enthused. She is detail oriented and leaves no stone uncovered – no surprises!
— GARY AND MARTY , BUYERS AND SELLERS
Through a bit of serendipity, my wife and I met our future real estate agent Rebecca one Sunday while open-house surfing as we were just starting to dip our toes into the market and before we had settled on an agent. Despite arriving at the showing right as she was putting the open house sign away, Rebecca invited us in and spent over half an hour getting to know us and starting to educate us on the home-buying process. This willingness to spend as much time as necessary educating and guiding us through the home-buying process would be a recurring theme during our relationship searching for and ultimately purchasing a home in the incredibly competitive San Francisco market.
Rebecca is a very no-nonsense, zero-pressure agent, which we found very refreshing in a fairly competitive and pushy industry. The fact of the SF housing market is that one will likely need to write many offers, and Rebecca eagerly took the opportunity to write even low-probability offers for us, and never got frustrated or exhausted at our waffling amongst various options. She was always accessible day or night to bounce ideas off of, ask for advice, and answer questions about properties or procedures. We had no problems coordinating schedules for showings, and on more than one occasion she rearranged her own schedule or dropped what she was doing to take us to an impromptu showing, which ended up actually being critical to finding the home we ultimately bought, as probably 30min would have been the difference between having the first offer in or being in a back-up situation.
Once we entered escrow, Rebecca took the initiative to compile a human-readable escrow timeline from the purchase agreement which helped avoid misunderstandings between the buying and selling sides, and was very proactive throughout to make sure each box was being ticked. She has excellent contacts within the home financing industry which also turned out to be instrumental in our ability to succeed in closing on our home — we truly felt like we had an experienced team working for us on auto-pilot to get escrow closed on time.
We can’t say enough good things about Rebecca, and would recommend her to anyone hoping to find the right home in San Francisco.
— KEVIN AND MEGUMI S, BUYER, SELLER, BUYER
At the end of a long day visiting open houses in SF, we met Rebecca Hoffman of Hill & Co. No other realtor that day showed interest in our search for a pied-à-terre. Rebecca was extremely friendly and enthusiastic and we knew instantly we would have a great experience working with her. She expertly guided us through the pre-qualifying process and quickly arranged for us to meet again to look at properties that met our criteria.
Over the next 3 months we were shown many properties, always at our convenience. Rebecca made us feel like we were her sole clients in that emails and phone calls were returned immediately. When we found the perfect pied-à-terre and the offer was made, Rebecca made sure everything proceeded smoothly. As with any real estate transaction, there were a couple eleventh hour surprises from the sellers but Rebecca remained calm and professional and resolved everything in our favor.
We are very happy with our new home and the overall experience working with and getting to know Rebecca.
— DAVE AND DENISE , BUYERS AND SELLERS
My husband and I were travelling when we saw this lovely condo online in the perfect neighborhood. Rebecca immediately partnered closely with us to create a strategy on how to win this very desirable home. She was aggressive in starting earnest discussions with the listing agent and built a positive relationship with her to pave the way for our next steps. We decided to place a pre-emptive bid and not only did Rebecca guide us smoothly and expertly through every step, resulting in a the win and a one week (!) close, but she also continued to work with us to ensure every detail was taken care of. The engagement with Rebecca was one of trust in which Rebecca demonstrated over and over that she had our best interests at heart. Without Rebecca’s guidance and determination we would not have won our perfect San Francisco home. Thank you, Rebecca!”

Rebecca is beautiful, focused, and gets the job done!
— HUGH, SELLER
Being “new” to San Francisco living having moved here in 2003, Rebecca really helped me navigate the nuances of San Francisco realty. She was patient and diligent to my requests and we ultimately found a great home and negotiated a great price. All thanks to Rebecca! Customer Service, professional, persistent and fun. I definitely recommend Rebecca.
— CHRISTOPHER, BUYER
I have a “friend in the Real Estate World” YES, Rebecca Hoffman to the rescue! When one of my closest friends announced that she was considering a job offer in San Francisco and wanted to make a move from Phoenix, I contacted Rebecca immediately.
Rebecca wasted no time in getting in touch with my friend, verifying exactly what she was looking for and begins the analysis and presentations of available considerations. She was professional, but personable. It was a pleasure introducing the two of them.
I have a ton of respect for someone that not only knows where to find the right real estate, but what the market will hold for that investment and the desires of the individual she is working with for personal preferences and investment goals.
Rebecca is part council, financial analyst, investigator, agent and friend. I would recommend her for any size deal – and have to several of my friends that are happy with the results!
— RENE , BUYER
I am aware of the Pacific Union International. We go to the Inman Connect every year. I went to the website. I thought you might be the best fit for my clients. The husband is high tech and the wife does a lot of global. They are both very nice and super sharp.
— REFERRAL AGENT OUTSIDE OF CALIFORNIA,
I was in the process of relocating from AZ to San Francisco when a mutual friend connected me with Rebecca. Despite the fact that I was only looking for a rental, Rebecca went out of her way to help me find a rental, briefed me on what areas of the city would be most suitable (NOTE: VERY knowledgeable about the city),and got me connected with a Realtor specializing in rentals.
I cannot express how welcomed she made me feel and certainly made my relocation that much easier. When I do decide to purchase, I will certainly use Rebecca.
