Alex Clark enabled us to buy our forever home in SF because he is quick, steadfast, and well-connected.

His super power is the perfect combo of a high EQ and killer instincts.

Alex listens. He cares. He is patient. All of the things I never thought I needed in a real estate agent. It was more of an emotional and physical journey to find our new home than I was expecting. He was a true partner every step of the way.

Diving into the SF real estate market is not for the faint of heart. Alex remained determined and never lost his drive to help us close a deal. When it felt like house hunting would never end, he had full confidence and faith in us and the process.

He purposefully navigated the tight corners of the negotiations, which ultimately got us the deal.

We are now working with him to sell our previous property and fully trust he will get us the best results.

Alex did a great job helping me sell my property, even though it took a bit longer than originally expected. His advice on pricing and strategy was spot on, and his network helped lock down third-party parking to sweeten the deal. He's patient and communicative, always giving solid advice when needed, plus he has a strong team backing him up. Alex also came through with solid recommendations for commercial real estate, connecting me with the right people to secure a business lease. I always recommend Alex to anyone looking to buy or sell in the Bay Area.

Alex and his team helped us make big emotional decisions about our homes - his team really made it seamless for us. First off, he has valuable relationships across the city - from other agents, to stagers and repair people, he connected us to the full suite of services we needed to get everything taken care of - on timeline and on budget. Lastly, we were able to navigate these big decisions with a cool and calm guide in Alex. He is now a trusted friend. We are so grateful!

Alex Clark brokered the sale of our first home purchase and our second home in San Francisco. We would highly recommend Alex to any prospective home buyer or seller. The reasons are as follows:
1. His calming demeanor kept us sane during the stress of buying and selling a home within 60 days.
2. His network with other brokers in city helped ensure a smooth process with buying and selling because he understood how to communicate effectively with the other parties.
3. When selling our first home, he handled the entire process of staging, marketing and hand holding. We where able to focus on moving into our new house while he found a great home for the new buyers of our old house.
4. He is great at handling your stress and working to ensure you are represented in the best fashion.

We hired Alex to buy our first home in San Francisco in 2013, and then again to sell it in 2024. He has always been patient, communicative, professional, timely, and pleasant to work with. Since our first home purchase we have worked with other realtors in other states, and Alex by far has been the best!

Alex Clark at the Front Steps Real Estate in San Francisco has sold 2 of my properties in SF. One in the outer sunset and the other in the outer Richmond. His professionalism goes above and beyond and he was able to recently navigate a tough market and got the job done. Alex has the best team on hand from painting and staging to banking and lending. He knows the neighborhood well being a resident himself for over twenty years. Alex and his partner Bryce will now be helping me with a home purchase in Marin. I highly highly recommend Alex Clark if you are selling or buying property in SF or Marin. 10 stars all the way!!

Alex truly knows his craft. We worked with Alex to sell our house at what ended up being the approximately worst time, with interest rates spiking, tech companies doing layoffs, and banks collapsing. Despite all that, Alex totally came through: He knew exactly what details mattered in getting the house ready for sale, hired an excellent photographer, and advertised in the right places. Most importantly, once offers came in, Alex had 100% the right instinct in how to make sure we were able to close successfully, and for a price that was above our expectations. Alex is also super fun to be around and was a delight to work with. We absolutely recommend to work with Alex, whether you are looking to buy or sell. He is one of the best.

Alex is a fantastic real estate agent. It is hard to imagine how anyone could be better.

He helped me buy my first home 8 years ago and did a great job, so when it came time to upgrade to a larger house, we turned to Alex again, and he did not disappoint.

Alex helped us to purchase our new dream home at under the asking price, contingent on the sale of our old home. That, of course, is unheard of in San Francisco. The agent on the other side hadn't even seen a contingent deal before, and her clients were not excited about the idea, but Alex talked them into it.

He then sold our old house for over the asking price. He helped us arrange for last minute repairs and touch-ups for the showing and sale. He was tireless in his efforts to show our old home 20 times in two weeks.

Next, Alex arranged for simultaneous closings so we could move out of the old house and into the new house on the same day. When that fell apart at the last minute as a result of a mistake by the escrow agent, Alex somehow pulled it back together and made it happen.

Alex responds immediately to texts and calls, at night and on the weekends. I know he had other clients at the same time, but it always felt like we were his only clients, and that he was completely focused on our goals.

In closing, you should hire Alex.
