Climb Real Estate & PocketListings.net Join To Bring You More Buying And Selling Opportunity

Pocket listings, “not on MLS” listings, “off market” property for sale, you’ve heard it all. They exist…in droves. Every single (yes, every single) brokerage has them, every single real estate agent would love to know about them, and the public is becoming more aware of them. They’ve been a part of our industry for decades, [...]

MLS Alternative, And Real Estate Match Making Service Is Here To Stay

As many of you know, I founded a website for agents to share (and hopefully sell) more real estate (PocketListings.net). A website designed to give sellers an alternative to listing on the MLS, and a way to give buyers a voice in regards to what they desire. Put the two together and it only makes [...]

Another Purdy Pocket Listing To Ponder In NOPA / Lone Mountain

This wonderful two-level single family alternative only a par 4 from the oh-so-hip NOPA district of San Francisco, and situated on the edge of the Lone Mountain district is currently listed off MLS until the sellers can find a suitable replacement property (if you know of any, don’t be shy).

“One Of Only 9 Cooperative Apartments [In San Francisco]” With A Lot Of 3′s, But Missing 3 Letters (MLS)

It might not be on MLS, but this $3,395,000, 3 bed, 3 bath, 3000 square foot, Co-Op on Broadway is surely worth a nod, perhaps even a gander: Elevator service directly into unit, three bedrooms (all with their own full bathroom), library, three remodeled bathrooms, vestibule with marble floor and arched etched glass window, formal [...]
