About the Neighborhood

NOPA is a tiny neighborhood North of the Panhandle, beloved for its hip cafes, quirky boutiques, and serene residential streets – a hop, skip, and a jump from all that San Francisco has to offer. Divisadero, Haight Street, Fillmore, and Inner Richmond are all within walking distance with restaurants, shops, and bars.


Freelancers and coffee lovers will find themselves right at home amongst the local coffee shops and bakeries. Almost every major grocery store is a short stroll away. If you’re looking for more than a city hike, head to nearby Golden Gate Park to jog, play tennis, or let your kids enjoy the playground. It’s hard to imagine why you’d ever want to leave NOPA, but if you do decide to venture out, you can be in downtown San Francisco or collecting sand dollars at the beach in a matter of minutes with easy public transportation and freeway access.

"Our initial consultation was one of the most memorable discussions we’ve had with someone in the business. She demonstrated through examples how creative, solutions-oriented and innovative her approach was; notably how her team adapted to the covid-19 environment through novel and personal marketing and attention to detail via virtual experiences. Other Realtors offered us a lower rate but we believe we got the quality and caliber we paid for."
N.O., Seller
"Ruth is a down-to-earth, friendly pit bull who represented us well and never let her guard down. She prepared us, protected us, and positioned us for what could not have been a more successful sale."
J.R., Seller
"In this very tough market, she got my family into a fantastic home. I was getting ready to walk away from the SF market altogether, because I just didn't think we could find what we wanted in a home at a price we could pay. Ruth is an absolute pro and helped us get the house we wanted. Ruth is a master real estate agent and the one you want in San Francisco."
H.H & A.P., Buyer
"In such a competitive market we needed an edge to get the home we wanted and we found that with Ruth and her team. She is down to earth, very personable and a master negotiator. She is honest, understanding, and not just out to make the sale."
R.M., Buyer
"Ruth was quick to assess our needs, the property needs, and the San Francisco market needs. She considered the property thoughtfully as she made recommendations for any renovations or work required. Her experience and knowledge as an interior designer is an asset. She creatively played with the space to increase its marketability and our home was beautifully displayed. We were pleased with the amount of offers and felt that Ruth's knowledge attributed to our success."
