Kelli made finding our first home easier than we ever could have imagined! She was there with us through the whole process with expert advice, connections, and knowledge that helped us navigate the stressful Bay Area housing market with ease. She was dedicated, available, and quick to respond to our many questions. All of her expertise helped us find the home of our dreams, and we would highly recommend her to any Bay Area home buyers.
Katie was an incredible agent. She is genuine, responsive, and tactful - I had a real feeling of trust working with her and knew she'd always give me the most constructive advice possible. Her background in law added depth and dimension to her already expert knowledge base in real estate. I also admired her deft handling of all the different personalities and dynamics that come up in a real estate hunt in one of the most intense markets in the country! Three cheers for Katie, I highly recommend her!"
As first-time homebuyers, Kelli helped us navigate the complexities of the process so we better understood what we wanted from our home and what we could comfortably afford. She always made the time to answer any of our questions (even if she had already explained it before) and was flexible as what we were looking for evolved while we explored the market. She was always extremely professional and was a great sounding board as we considered various options. Also, during open houses, she always knew the perfect questions to ask to make sure the property was what we expected. While the process is a lot of work, Kelli was there every step of the way until we found the perfect first home for us!
Katie is amazing! We were first-time buyers, and she was very patient with us - it took us a whole year to find the one, and she never rushed us. Not only that she really took the time to understand what we were looking for and was very respectful with our budget. She guided us through all the details and was very prompt in communication and persistent in making sure we got all the information we needed from sellers when making a bid. We would highly recommend her if you're looking to buy a home in San Francisco!
Katie is awesome. She knows so much about the market, and she was so patient with us as our search evolved-it took about six months, and we changed our parameters a few times, and she was helpful, responsive, and knowledgeable about everything. She helped guide us through some competitive offers in this crazy market. She's so knowledgeable about the market and has done so many negotiations; she gives really realistic feedback. I have already recommended Katie to friends, and I would recommend her any day

Katie was always responsive via email and texts and had deep knowledge of the inventory and the overall process of buying a home in this competitive market. She communicated quickly with sellers' realtors, lenders, and the title company. She clearly had a good relationship with all parties, which smoothed the process considerably, making all our interactions pleasant. She was a pleasure to work with, and we love our new home.
Simply put, we wouldn't be in a home without Katie's expertise and assistance. The market in the Bay Area has been extremely competitive (to put it lightly) of late, but Katie remained committed and dedicated to us as we worked our way through multiple offers on multiple homes. She was extremely prompt, accommodating, and precise with us, and without her input, we'd have been totally overwhelmed in our home search. Further, she was a great person to work with who really helped us through all the ups and downs of the home search process. We'd highly recommend Katie to anyone else looking to buy a home in the Bay Area.
Katie came highly recommended to us by a friend who had sold her house with Katie's great service. Katie was very thorough in explaining all phases of the process to us. She was especially great at working with us from 2000 miles away as we had to move before we sold the house. We felt she gave us the same attention as we would get if we had remained local. She was excellent in communicating with us. We know she had other client's but she made us feel we were a top priority for her. She was great in helping us review and select offers. She helped us tremendously in selling our house at a price we were happy with and in a short time frame. We highly recommend Katie for her knowledge, experience and service.
Kelli really is the best. We purchased our home in Oakland through Kelli in 2022. It was our first home buying experience and she held our hand through the entire thing. Our financing ended up falling through but Kelli saved the deal and hooked us up with another mortgage broker who ended up being much easier to work with and provided a better rate. Kelli was so enjoyable to work with and was always available to chat through any issues. She is absolutely the hardest working real estate agent in the Bay Area. We will absolutely be using Kelli for our next home purchase!
Purchasing a home in San Francisco is no small task, and having a realtor you trust and who understands this unique market is a necessity. Kelli was recommended by our mortgage broker as we started the home buying experience. With another baby on its way, we needed a larger living space. From the onset, we were very impressed by her responsiveness and professionalism. In our time working with Kelli, we faced a rapidly changing and difficult to understand housing market. Her instincts and analyses were spot on. We especially appreciated the countless hours of research she'd do on homes we were evaluating - touring the home with us, talking to general contractors about expansion possibilities, and helping us to sort through the details listed in the disclosures. Her network of San Francisco real estate agents provided additional insights, plus access to off-market properties. All of this w…

We ended up with a single-family home that we love in a beautiful neighborhood, and while we hope not to be moving again in the near future, if we do we are grateful to know which real estate agent to call.
After Kelli successfully helped us secure our “forever home” as buyers, we transitioned to working with her on the sellers side. Kelli was professional, knowledgeable, and invested in helping us achieve our goals. She took the time to understand our needs, provided valuable insights into the market, and assisted in preparing our home for sale. One of the things that truly set Kelli apart was her attention to detail and commitment to ensuring our home was in turn key condition for buyers. For any work that needed to be done, Kelli got multiple bids from reputable contractors and designers, and she met with the workers to make sure everything was handled promptly and correctly. This made the whole process so much easier for me, especially as a busy mom with two young children.

The marketing materials were attention-grabbing, from brochures to virtual tours to Instagram posts. Kelli made sure to get our property in front of the right buyers. In a volatile market, we were lucky enough to have multiple offers. She expertly navigated the negotiations, ensuring we got the best price possible, and made the closing process smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend Kelli Johnson to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Her expertise, dedication, and attention to detail made the difference in getting our home sold with confidence and pride. Thank you, Kelli, for your outstanding service!
We had the great pleasure of working with Kelli to purchase our first home in the Bay Area. While a home search can be really stressful, we never felt that with Kelli. She was transparent, extremely approachable, was always prompt in her responses and a thorough professional. She was very accommodating and patient with our questions, requirements and budget - especially when they were changing with the market. And most important of all, she always had our back, be it working toward finalizing the offer or helping us negotiate a better interest rate. We cannot recommend her highly enough and would love to work with her in the future again!
Katie Fones was delightful to work with as well as being highly knowledgeable and extremely skillful in her professional abilities. She created and implemented a strategic and successful plan for marketing our condo that resulted in a quick sale above the listing price.
We had used Katie to purchase our house, and when it was time to sell, there wasn’t any hesitation on our part that she would be the one to handle the transaction. We have now worked with her as both buyers and sellers, and both times the process has been incredibly easy and seamless. I am typically a very stressed person but I was as stress free as could be when selling our house knowing that Katie was managing the entire process. We are now working with Katie to find our next property and she is always available via text or calls and is incredibly flexible about getting us into showings. We highly recommend Katie!
You cannot go wrong with Katie as your buyer agent. She is exceptionally professional, polite, responsive, attentive, reliable, punctual, and armed with plenty of local knowledge about the San Francisco area. We were looking for a house in San Francisco and Marin County, and Katie has been our agent for the former. She was quick to arrange showings and provided valuable advice. She was persistent and skillful in the negotiations with the sellers, providing us with the information necessary to make better decisions.

We were connected with Katie through the recommendation of other buyer's. When we first contacted her, she was able to set up showings for us within a couple days and she was incredibly flexible with our schedule and the real estate showing requirements during COVID. We valued her input and knowledge throughout the process and really appreciated her guidance in putting together offer packages as first time home buyers. Katie made our process smooth and painless and never failed to quickly respond to texts, calls, or emails. We highly recommend Katie!
Katie was great helping us buy the house, so when we needed someone we trust to sell the house we didn't hesitate to ask Katie again. We were out of town during the whole process (clean, stage, list, and close), and Katie handled it flawlessly for us, going above and beyond to make sure we could move fast to get the place ready for sale. Katie recommended really good stagers/handyman/vendors, and we were really happy with how great the place looked. I'm sure that was a big reason why we were able to sell the place so quickly (offers within first couple days of listing).
Throughout it all, Katie was proactive, incredibly responsive, and always accelerated getting us what we wanted. She even went above and beyond by coordinating some minor repairs post-closing with the seller’s agent. We’re glad we met Katie and couldn’t be happier to be in our new home!
