I have worked with many realtors in the past and Stefan is an absolute stand out. He is knowledgeable, responsive and knows the market inside and out. He is helpful but not pushy and all about finding the right house for you. If I could rate him higher than 10 I would.
Stefan is attentive to detail and available when there is something to be done.
We had a great experience selling our home with Stefan, would highly recommend.
Stefan made the home buying process for my wife and I a BREEZE!!! His property recommendations, regular email updates and price comparable research is on point. He was pro-active, followed up after we looked at the recommended homes to understand our needs better and made us feel like we were his only clients 🙂 He is very patient and NEVER pressured us, instead he motivated us with the right advice by sharing his insights about the property price, renovation costs and possible biddings on certain properties. Did I already mention that his estimates and insights were spot on?! He even recommended us the lender who helped us close on the house in 18 days. On top of all this Stefan has given us amazing recommendations for people who are now going to help us make the house look absolutely... Show More

As first time home buyers we really appreciated the way Stefan explained anything we asked, shared his experience and listened carefully to what we wanted. Can’t recommend him more. Amazing professional.
It was a pleasure working with Stefan to successfully sell our home in a changing real estate market. His construction background and contacts were invaluable in preparing the house. He listened to our concerns, coached us through the steps, and advised us well. We appreciated his friendliness and integrity. Valon and the rest of the team were great too!

Stefan helped my family sell a condo that came into our possession with the death of a relative. It was a hard sell, as it wasn't a single family home that might have a broader appeal on the market. Despite that, Stefan managed to sell the home above the list price. Throughout the process, he was kind, responsive, and knowledgeable. I highly recommend him as a realtor.
Stefan is a great agent. He doesn't push his own agenda and really listens, which is refreshing.
Stefan is very knowledgeable and communicates well throughout the home buying process. He was patient and listened to our needs. I would highly recommend working with him for home buying or selling.

Stefan is fantastic! As first-time homebuyers, he was instrumental in helping us navigate the bay area market and the competition. He understood exactly what we were looking for and helped us find that dream home. Also, I cannot stress enough how necessary it is that he knows so much about construction and building because he would instantly get under the house and let us know exactly what we would be taking on with each house. I trust him so much; I knew he would lead us to the perfect home for us. This process would have been so much more difficult with someone else.
Really great realtor. Honest! Thoughtful and very hardworking.
Very knowledgeable, understands and could explain construction details, energetic, personable, and working with you to make the sale happen.

Stefan made the transaction super easy to whiz right through to a timely close of escrow after he sold my last house. Always available and knowledgeable on many levels whether it’s reviewing reports, making suggestions, guiding the process, offering support. He was great to work with!
I really appreciated all of the assistance and help that Stefan provided in the sale of my Condo. I especially appreciated his construction knowledge, since we had to get some work done prior to the sale. He was always available when needed and responsive to my requests. I am looking forward to working with him on buying my next home.
Amazing. Just the best possible experience one could have a with a realtor. Super chill, construction background to provide structural insights and worked his butt off to close on a last minute 24 hr escrow turnaround to make the Dream come true. Can’t say enough good things!

We grew to love him like a son. He goes way beyond excellence. What realtor actually volunteers to drive our second car himself, from Tiburon to LA, to save us 700.? Previous house we sold through him, the window washer was a no show and Stefan got a ladder and did it himself!!! Match these examples, if you can. The BEST,

Great agent and neighborhood expert who is super responsive and on top of communication throughout the entire process!
Stephan was attentive, curtious, informed, and thorough. I will reach out to Stephan again when either looking to buy or sell property in the San Francisco Bay Area. Thanks Stephan
Stefan was amazing to work with. He was recommended by friends to whom we are extremely grateful. He is friendly and personable; works well with other agents and has a great team to back him up. Dealing with a very demanding and arduous house sale, he was able to keep us feeling positive when transactions were very difficult. His persistence and experienced negotiating skills sealed the house same during a transition in the local housing market. He has a background as a builder, which comes in handy in recognizing overall house attributes. We have already recommend him to family who are considering moving in the near future. Dealing with Stefan was a pleasure!

Stefan Schermerhorn was a joy to work with and an absolute pro. He guided us through the entire process, consistently and clearly communicated goals and deadlines, worked around our schedule, and managed to make a daunting process relatively stress-free. We wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.
Stefan did an excellent job from start to finish. He worked tirelessly; well-outside the boundaries of his job description! We are so grateful that our home is sold and the experience was much better than expected. Thank you, Stefan, for your great work!
We have grown to love him like a son. Such a hard worker, so proactive, such a big heart. Cannot say enough great things. He helped us with literally everything, so effectively and with such positivity and humor. A gem.
Extremely personable and client-focused
Stefan's as good as they get. He takes the time to not only help a client with their home buying/selling, but to truly get to know them so that he can ensure he's properly representing their needs in a deal. He makes it clear your happiness is priority one, period. He just gets it done.

Stefan did an amazing job selling our house in Tiburon. The photos, flyer and website pictures were amazing and added a drone to get overview and location. Stefan went above and beyond to sell this house. He is responsive, positive and hands on! Stefan is everything an agent should be and keeps you updated on a daily basis. His knowledge on Construction just adds to the ease of working with him. Great Job Stefan!
We work on 2 home sales both were steam put a lot of effort on the sales works hard to get the job done
Stefan helped me with purchasing my first home in 2012 and then five years later he helped me sell it. He really knows his business. He’s highly professional and will do whatever he can to assist his clients. He’s very thorough and keeps all the details in mind. He’s also one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

A plus at every level. Went way beyond what was required! We adore him.
If you are looking for an amazing, knowledgeable realtor who understands the market, knows how to prepare and sell a home, while providing honest and thoughtful guidance, look no further. Stefan will take care of you like a family member more than a client. We recently had to coordinate the sale of our home in the Bay Area while living in London. Stefan’s professionalism made this potentially tedious process, go painless and smooth. We were truly blessed to have come across Stefan who helped prepare and stage our home, competitively price it to market, and get a signed offer (above asking) in place in just a few days. During the inspection, we found a few issues on the home which needed repair. Stefan helped coordinate quality vendors at an honest / fair price by leveraging his historic... Show More
Stefan worked with us during recent purchase transaction. He is great in every aspect of Real Estate business. He is excellent communicator and knowledgeable in construction which helped us a lot when we run into post sale problems. He is skilled negotiator getting best possible deal for his clients. He is very honest, upfront but not pushy. He was very patient with us and guided us throughout the process.
He is very quick and using the latest technology to make the process easier.
He also guiding us on renting our property.
We highly recommend Stefan and will be working with him on all our future real estate.

We just sold our family home with Stefan and it was a very emotional experience. Stefan was there with support and encouragement all along the way. For me, what stood out the most was his confidence and trust in the process, which was crucial for me to be able to relax. I would highly recommend anyone to choose Stefan and his team!
Buying a home is a whirlwind of paperwork, Docusigns, nerves, uncertainty and excitement. Luckily, we were working with Stefan and our experience buying a home was everything we could have hoped for. We saw the property on a Tuesday, put in an offer that night, had multiple counter offers, and our offer was accepted on Thursday. Everything happened so fast and we thank Stefan's experience in Marin for our ability to get through the process swiftly and successfully.

I would be delighted to recommend Stefan! We couldn't have asked for a better agent to support us through this process. His combination of skills in real estate and construction, his availability and responsiveness, his connections to helpful resources, his ability to engage in a warm and professional manner with all of the different parties involved, were invaluable qualities to us.

Stefan, is very knowledgeable and helpful! He helped us navigate through this market, he informed us on things to be aware when we're getting into contract and he helped land a great home! He's a great communicator and goes above and beyond. Stefan was available at any point when we had questions or when things needed to get done. We choose to have a short close and he did an incredible job of making that possible. Stefan is a rock star, I felt very lucky to have him as our agent.

Stefan was instrumental to driving the sale of our house and kept us informed every step of the way. Although selling a house in San Carlos seems to be a slam dunk the process is much different than it was when we purchased the home and Stefan was very patient in explaining the process throughout the transaction. We didn't know Stefan before we decided to sell our home but were introduced by another couple who were using him in another transaction. I was a little concerned at first because he is based in Marin but his positive energy and openness over rode my fears which were unfounded as he was accessible whenever we needed him and it was a pleasure working with him. He was diligent in ensuring we were protected throughout the process keeping our options open should we become... Show More
Stefan was very flexible. He made himself available to me with my very busy life. He always stayed focused for both of us with my goals for a new home.

Stefan works first as a mentor and a friend then as an agent. He took care of us as if he were buying his own house. Stefan has been there at every second to help us avoid making mistakes and making the right decisions. He took care of us like we were his family. Just one out of many things I can write about: During the purchase process, we were out of country and few times thought that deal fell through, but then there was Stefan running around and making it work. Buying a house is a complex process from hunt to negotiate, finance, paperwork and some renovations. Stefan took care of all steps in the best way one can dream. THANKS to Stefan, we bought the house at the location we want, within the budget we have, with the conditions we want. If it were not his personal dedication,... Show More
Stefan worked with us through every step of remodeling a home in Mill Valley and preparing it for sale. His recommendations and advice were spot on. His efforts during the listing were fantastic. We would definitely use Stefan again. Thanks Stefan!

Stefan is a real estate agent far beyond the average. With his insights in house construction and materials combined with a realistic yet visionary eye on an object's potential, he builds a solid and reliable relation to us as buyers. His professional standard is highlighted by straight manner, being on time and keeping promises. With a broad network in the real estate field behind him, no question is left unanswered, no stone is left unturned. We strongly recommend Stefan, one of the absolute best agents we ever met. And believe us, we've met several over the years.

We just closed on our new home and Stefan was the essential link to facilitate the purchase. In the current housing market finding available homes and creating the right bid is difficult. Stefan alerted us to the home before it came on the market and made all of the complicated arrangements for us to see the home and even sign the papers while we were out of town. His knowledge of home construction was incredibly helpful in pointing out the structural flaws then he brought out a trusted engineer to give us a clear idea of the cost and extent of necessary repairs. We believe the terms he suggested for our bid was the key to securing the home. Stefan was available to answer our questions during all hours and went well above our expectations to facilitate the deal. We highly recommend... Show More
Stefan is a true professional. He has an obsession with excellence and is relentless in not accepting mediocrity. Stefan managed the entire purchase process for us - we are extremely busy and needed someone like Stefan to be in a leadership role. He communicated numerous times with our lender, the other agents, the inspectors, and basically walked us through the process. We are experienced buyers but we still needed Stefan's expertise and knowledge. He also has good connections with regards to getting all the inspections done on time. His background is especially useful when purchasing a home in either San Francisco or Marin County. He proved himself valuable. I highly recommend Stefan without reservations. Stefan does his homework, is clear and explicit, and questions rigourously.

Stefan is very comprehensive in his service. He is not waiting to do something he has been asked, he anticipates what needs to be done and does it before it becomes necessary to ask him.
Stefan was very prompt in returning my phone calls, emails, and directed me to outside assistance when he wasn't able to provide an answer.
Stefan is extremely professional, very knowledgeable, and never pushy. He has provided us with honest, unbiased feedback and he always makes himself available when needed. I would definitely work with him again and I would recommend his real estate expertise to my family and friends.
He was there for us every step of the way. Always good advice. Quick to respond, flexible, patient. Very knowledgable about the terms and conditions of contracts. Even great experience about the construction quality of a house! I'd choose him again.

Stefan did a great job as the realtor on the purchase of the land. Stefan was very knowledgable about local land use regulations and other factors affecting the sale. Stefan was very responsive and referred me to a top notch Escrow Agent. Between them, the transaction was handled very smoothly. Thanks!
good work, thx!
Stefan is friendly, responsive, hard-working and intelligent. Highly recommended.
knowledgeable, good at keeping regular communication/updates, works quickly/aggressively to ensure client's needs and expectations are met. Took the time to explain many aspects and options in the buying/selling process.
Stefan is real professional who clearly cares about his clients. We had a hard time finding a realtor who would give their full attention to selling our apartment. Although it was at the low end of the local market, Stefan gave it his all from beginning to end, and brought in multiple offers. He worked hard for us, took time to understand our needs, and moved the house quickly in a slow market for more than our asking price. We will certainly recommend Stefan to family and friends.
We are so pleased with our experience with Stefan. He is a consummate professional and a great listener who took time to get to know us. He understood our hopes, needs, and budget, and helped us find a great new home. He guided us through the short sale process with optimism and confidence. We always knew that he was negotiating with our best interests in mind. We really appreciated his experience as a builder; his eye for a quality property was invaluable. Well after we took ownership of our home, Stefan continued his impeccable service. When a tax bill arrived in error from the county, Stefan resumed his role as our advocate and quickly resolved the matter. We will wholeheartedly recommend Stefan to friends and family.
My experience working with Stefan Schermerhorn was wonderful. This was my first time buying a home. Stefan looked after me just like a good son. I highly recommend him and would work with him again in a heartbeat.
My husband and I bought our first home working with Stefan. He was amazing, very patient with all of our questions, and concerns. Purchasing a Homepath/foreclosure home was more complicated than a normal home purchase, and we encountered several obstacles. Stefan remained optimistic, and realistic, it was so reassuring. At the end of the day he's saved us thousands of dollars between renting and owning! As first time homeowners, who have no family living in California, Stefan has been an ongoing resource for contractors, appliance servicemen, and our home repair questions! When we're ready to upgrade from our condo to a single family home Stefan is the first one we'll call.
Stefan is a fabulous agent. He is conscientious, professional, personable, knowledgeable, and very hardworking. I recommend him unreservedly to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
