Client Testimonials

We worked with Ruth Krishnan to sell our Noe Valley home, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the results. We were facing some challenges, including a tight timeline between when we moved out and the end of the fall sales season. Ruth took all of this in stride, expressed confidence that the house would sell quickly, and eased many of our anxieties.

Once we handed over the keys, we were able to relax and let Ruth’s team do their thing. They worked diligently to whip the house into shape, and there was a tremendous degree of transparency: we were able to see how much was spent on what, and trust that the decisions about what to fix and what not to fix were being made with our best interest in mind. In just one month, the floors were redone, the walls were painted, and the repairs were completed. The house looked stunning in the marketing photos, and we knew we had made a great decision.

When the offers came in, Ruth explained everything fully, went through our options, and described multiple ways we could negotiate to ensure we got the highest price. She had great advice but wasn’t pushing us; she allowed us to be in the driver’s seat.

I’d also mention that Ruth was terrific about making time for us. I know she has a full roster of clients and many demands on her, and I was really impressed that she was able to speak with us on weekends or by Zoom when our own work and travel schedules made things difficult.

I’d identified Ruth as a potential agent because of how often I saw her name on For Sale signs around Noe Valley. My neighbors were right: her experience and knowledge of the market made her a great choice.

I had a fantastic experience working with Lauren Neuschel on the sale of 1869 California Street in Pacific Heights. From start to finish, Lauren managed the entire process with incredible precision. She is extremely detail-oriented and took a huge weight off my shoulders by tracking all vendor payments and logistics. If you’re looking for an agent who is proactive, organized, and truly handles everything end-to-end, I cannot recommend Lauren highly enough.

I worked with Yesenia Beatriz and the Krishnan Team to sell my condo in Glen Park, and the experience was stellar from beginning to end. I have total confidence in everyone involved in the sale.

From the very first meeting Yesenia demonstrated exceptional knowledge of the local market and quickly provided a clear, comprehensive strategic plan. She positioned my sale to broadly appeal to potential buyers. She enthusiastically appreciated the finishes and details of my fully renovated space, its beautiful and desirable location, and what a special place it is. She effectively used her expertise and communication skills to create a high-quality marketing plan that included gorgeous photos, a well-organized and attractive website, and compelling marketing copywriting.

Yesenia is thoughtful, strategic, communicative, well organized, and very responsive. I heavily relied on her and her team’s outstanding skills to seamlessly coordinate inspections, viewings, paperwork and vendors. While Yesenia is outstanding at what she does, her team also kept me informed at every step, handling all the logistics efficiently. They were always professional and extremely responsive, even on weekends. The entire team was highly knowledgeable and competent. I essentially handed over the keys and they took care of everything. Working with them was a complete pleasure. They truly went above and beyond!

Yesenia has excellent problem-solving skills. She helped me navigate a tough situation with a repair. She listened, coached, and encouraged me to rethink what I had planned to do. She suggested an easier, less costly solution. Her advice was spot on, and I so appreciate how she skillfully guided me to a better solution.

Selling a home is inherently stressful. Yesenia was masterful in easing my stress whenever possible. She was invariably calm, positive, and reassuring.

Yesenia has consummate negotiating skills. I couldn’t be more pleased with the amazing outcome we achieved, 40% over asking! It doesn’t get better than that. I highly recommend Yesenia and her team without reservation.

We feel so fortunate to have worked with the Krishnan Team recently to sell our Central Sunset house in San Francisco. Yesenia in particular, but the whole team was so professional every step of the way. Their communication was always very clear, they were hyper responsive and their advice was spot on both in how to market the house and the timing of putting it up for sale. The quality of their contractors they engaged with – painters, stagers etc. was top notch. They made the process as easy and fun as you could hope for. Could not offer a stronger recommendation.

I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend Yesenia Beatriz of the Krishnan Team. A few weeks ago, Yesenia successfully sold my Buena Vista / Ashbury Heights home in San Francisco under extraordinary circumstances that exceeded every expectation I had for the process.

From the moment I engaged the Krishnan Team, their “turn-key” service set them apart from every other agent I interviewed. Unlike traditional agents who leave homeowners to manage repairs and preparations themselves, the team has an in-house network of trusted contractors and vendors. Under Yesenia’s direction, they completed targeted upgrades on my property that enhanced its appeal without unnecessary delays or hassle. This seamless coordination was an exceptional advantage and directly contributed to the outstanding results we achieved.

Yesenia and the team brought my home to market on an impressively quick timeline, perfectly positioning us to capitalize on current market conditions. The marketing, staging, and professional photography were first-class in every respect — sophisticated, high-quality, and far superior to anything I had seen from other agents. The listing presentation, copywriting, and overall visual impact made my property stand out immediately.

The results spoke for themselves: my condominium home received three competing offers right at the first open house. Yesenia’s sharp negotiation strategies secured the highest offer, and the transaction proceeded with a strong cash buyer who closed escrow in just one week. The entire process ran with remarkable efficiency and smoothness, from start to finish.

What truly impressed me was Yesenia’s personal involvement and professionalism. Despite the size and strength of the Krishnan Team, I never felt passed off to an inexperienced assistant — Yesenia was my consistent point of contact and clearly a seasoned professional who thought on her feet and navigated every detail with expertise. I always felt genuinely cared for, and it was evident that she consistently placed my interests above all else. Her integrity, calm demeanor, and ability to ease the natural stress of selling a home made the experience far more pleasant than I anticipated.

Having worked with other agents in the past, I can confidently say the difference was night and day. The Krishnan Team’s design background proved to be a significant asset, informing thoughtful upgrades and staging decisions that added real value. The entire team operated with the highest level of coordination and support, making me feel supported every step of the way.

In short, Yesenia Beatriz and the Krishnan Team delivered an exceptional experience that not only met but significantly exceeded my expectations. I received outstanding service, achieved a strong financial outcome, and felt completely confident throughout the process. I recommend Yesenia without hesitation to anyone looking to sell (or buy) a home in the competitive San Francisco market.

Yesenia, Ruth, and The Krishnan Team are true experts in their field. They provided excellent communication, smart recommendations, and sound advice throughout the entire process of selling our Inner Mission loft.

Working with Ruth to sell our Cole Valley condo was an incredible experience. Ruth is incredibly detail-oriented, responsive, collaborative and works tirelessly for her clients. She anticipated challenges before they even happened making a stressful process feel completely manageable. Ruth truly knows the market because she studies it, every conversation and recommendation was data-driven and designed to maximize our ROI, leading to a sale price that far exceeded our expectations!

We were under a huge time crunch but Ruth’s efficiency, thoughtful processes and timeline management made it look easy. She has a deep understanding of strategy and knowing exactly how to navigate the market to maximize our outcome. Most importantly, we always knew she was truly on our side. We can’t imagine working with anyone else!
