Oliver Burgelman San Francisco Real Estate Agent - San Francisco, California

Ed R.

Oliver is terrific! My wife and I recently worked with him to buy a house in San Francisco.

Throughout the process, Oliver provided valuable perspective and advice, while staying tenaciously on top of every detail. He anticipated and navigated potential obstacles before they arose, which proved crucial in the highly competitive bidding process we encountered.

Oliver's responsiveness is exceptional - he was always available when we needed him and stayed in frequent contact. Even after the purchase, he has continued to offer invaluable support and assistance.

We highly recommend working with Oliver if you're looking to buy a house!

Oliver Burgelman is an outstanding real estate professional. We worked with Oliver to purchase a house in San Francisco. As first time buyers in California, he made the process relatively easy and enjoyable. We found a home within a month of working together, only having to make two offers and staying within our budget. He carefully listened to our needs, patiently answered every question, and went above and beyond in many ways to make sure we were happy in our new home. He even continues to check-in months after we moved in to see how things are going and to share his expertise. We would gladly work with Oliver again and would recommend him to others!

We thank our lucky stars that we worked with Oliver. He is that rare blend of amiability and capability; not only was he consistently responsive, he anticipated our needs, giving us ample information and a seasoned, cool perspective. After our first phone conversation, he quickly moved our search forward, turning our feedback into promising listings. Oliver found us our house within one week of working with him, and did everything he could to make the deal go smoothly. For example, the counteroffer from our seller did not cover the dry rot under our front stairs. Rather than having us counter, which would have made it possible for us to lose the house, he insisted on covering the cost from his end. We were blown away by this, and his aftercare was superb, with terrific contacts for painting and contracting. We hope to be in this house for decades to come but, should we ever need to sell it, we would work with Oliver without a moment’s doubt. In the SF market, every advantage makes a difference, and we would recommend Oliver and Mike without hesitation to anyone looking to buy or sell property here, as we have already to our friends.

Oliver is very professional. We were looking to sell our house in the Mission. A friend referred us to him. Oliver called us within a day, set an appointment in the same week. He always was very punctual with his appointments. He came for the first appointment with a brochure where he did a study of houses with similar description of our house and tentative appraisal which was very accurate with the appraisal agent. Oliver walked the property and advice us how to make our house more "appealing" for potential buyers. Oliver with his experience advise us when we can place our house on the market. Oliver prepared a schedule plan including photography session, open houses and approximate date of selling which was very accurate. We sold the house one day after he though we were going to sell. After that Oliver took care of every single detail. He also contacted and "interview" another realtor in order to recommend us with them in the area where we wanted to buy our new house. He also offered his advice and coordinate with bank, realtor and us to make sure a smooth transition on the purchase of the new house. We highly recommend Oliver for his experience, professionalism and human quality. Thank You Oliver!!

When my husband and I began looking at lofts in San Francisco, we found Oliver’s blog about the pros and cons of loft ownership. His well thought out, highly informative article caught our attention, as we were looking for an agent who was knowledgeable in the field. Oliver’s great customer service and professionalism really reinforced our decision to work with him.

What a great choice! Oliver stayed on top of everything, moving swiftly, making himself available to us at every turn. Oliver has an easy- going manner. He has a personable and encouraging approach that informs without insisting, always keeping our best interest, as buyers, at the forefront.

The San Francisco market was definitely a learning curve for us. Oliver was outstanding to work with. He never pushed us to bid higher than what we were comfortable with. He took the time to find out what our interests were and helped to single out our areas of focus. His patience and advice helped us make informed decisions while navigating through the home buying process.

After 5 months of searching, making competitive offers on several properties, we finally made the perfect offer on just the right place. Terms included a 10 day lending contingency! Oliver worked with us through every detail, worked closely with our lender and the title agent, making for a swift, seamless close. Even after the close, Oliver still calls to check in, to help us finalize loose ends, and assist in anyway he can.

It has been our pleasure getting to know Oliver and working with him in finding our dream come true place. We would definitely work with him again and recommend him highly whether you’re looking to purchase or sell in San Francisco.

Oliver helped to sell our home in the outer avenues. The experience could not have been better. Oliver gave us the vision from the first day and over-delivered on every promise he made. He walked us through exactly what would happen with the selling process and exactly when to place on market for maximum exposure, and ended with our well over asking price offer which we accepted. Oliver was always there to answer questions and went above and beyond anything I could think of a realtor doing. He does care about you in selling your home or purchasing a new one. I highly recommend Oliver and Mike both as they are easy to work with, honest, and can be trusted to have your best interest in mind.

Oliver made us feel relaxed and comfortable with this important transition in selling our home. He listened to all of our questions and concerns and was very thorough with explaining the process. He never pressured us to take steps we didn't want to do. He supported our wish to sell the home how we wanted to and we would highly recommend him to anyone buying or selling in San Francisco. Oliver manages to know the market inside and out while maintaining genuine kindness and understanding.

Oliver was recommended to us by friends who had a great experience purchasing their house with him and Oliver turned out to be perfect for us as well. We told him our criteria and he was the exact right mix of respect for our choices while also showing us alternatives. His many years of experience in the San Francisco were great to leverage, especially when it came to the offer stage. Buying a house in the current market feels like it takes place in a whirlwind. It was invaluable having someone to guide us through it and someone we could trust implicitly to ensure our interests were being represented.
