Where to begin. I have been procrastinating on this review for a long time, and I think it is because I am actually sad that we won’t be in contact with this wonderful business on a daily basis anymore. The story:
About a month and a half ago, my wife and I decided to look into buying a house. We had not even a speck of knowledge about what this would entail, but with positive attitudes and optimism galore, we decided to call Domicile, recommended to me by a friend. From the first phone call, I knew we were in the right hands.

It’s just weeks after moving into a new house. I have a toddler and a full time job. So, it takes something truly amazing to make me want to write a yelp review instead of snuggle into bed. And, Domicile Properties is truly amazing. We found them through these Yelp reviews, so I guess we owe it to the Yelp community to add our 2-cents.
I just bought myself a house in San Francisco and I still can’t quite believe it. A few months back when I first started looking, I had no idea which realtor to use. I hopped on various websites and frankly didn’t know whom to trust, whom to believe — it all looked like a bunch of false blah blah from people desperate for my money — and most of them frankly creeped me out and/or had really bad hair and capped teeth. Full disclosure: I work in marketing so I’m afraid I’m hyper-sensitive to marketers whose sales pitch is all they got.
We just closed on our house a week ago in Diamond Heights. Patty, Julie, and Shane couldn’t have made the buying experience more positive. They work so well as a team. They ensured that all of our questions were answered (no matter what time of day), and that all of our needs / wants were met.

I would have no hesitation in recommending the Domicile Team.

Where do I begin. WOW. My partner and I, we both now live in Los Angeles,decided to renovate and sell a rental property we had in Bernal Heights. We interview a couple of realtors to see who we felt could best assist us as it was going to be more than just “selling the house” We needed someone to be our eyes and ears with the contractor we had chosen.

Domicile Properties is one class act. From the initial phone call to the closing day and beyond, the Domicile team–Patty, Julie, Shane, and Ellie–provided exceptionally personalized and professional service, making the normally stressful process of purchasing a home in San Francisco a smooth and even enjoyable experience.
If you’re looking for the best real estate agent in San Francisco, look, no further! The team at Domicile Properties (Shane, Julie and Patty) are experts.
The whole team at Domicile is absolutely first rate.

One word that summarizes Julie and Patty Rogers of Domicile Properties – AWESOME!

Great gang that made looking easy and buying fun. Their agent took the time to really understand my needs better than I could have articulated them myself, and before I knew it I was moving
This was too good to be true. My wife and I decided we might be ready to sell our SF condo and look for a real house. So we started to assemble our team. Yelp said “Domicile,” so I made a call.

As a former real estate agent in NYC I came into this with high expectations. Patty and Julie lived up to them. They understood what we were looking for and consistently put us in front of good opportunites. They brought a high level of service and commitment and throughout the process they were knowledgeable and professional. We’ll definitely use them to sell and buy again.
Being new to the world of real estate deals, it took 3 losing offers (working with other agents) to realize how important it is to have a professional, dedicated & knowledgable team working on your behalf.
Rating a real estate agent is not like rating a restaurant: we mostly pick one and hope that we choose the one that will help us find the perfect investment.
To help me buy my first apartment, I picked Patty and Julia because of the raving reviews on Yelp and at this point I can only concur with the previous reviews: they’re simply great!

Domicile Properties is the best real estate firm you’re going to come across, period.

Moving from the East Bay into San Francisco was a big step for my wife and I. Trying to find the best location and competing with other buyers was a bit intimidating.
Then a friend referred us to Patty and Julie…

They say that hindsight is 20/20 – three years after we bought our house with their help I (still) see very clearly what a great job they did for us. Absolutely no regrets.

I had been kind of casually looking at real estate in the Bay Area, particularly in San Francisco, for the past couple of years. At the start of 2010, when some of my employment uncertainty became certain again, I started to search more earnestly, using sites like Redfin and ZipRealty to find properties, locate open houses, watch price trends, etc. At some point in February, I decided that looking for real estate by checking out websites was not enough, and I needed help. I had recently had a good experience looking on Yelp for auto repair (the first time I had used Yelp to find a service and not just a restaurant), so I looked under real estate agents, and I found Domicile Properties. And I am so glad I did!

When my boyfriend and I decided to buy our first home, I freaked out a little. I’m a bit of a control freak, but had almost zero knowledge about real estate market or home-buying in general. Not a good situation for someone like me!
After we spoke to a few agents, we met with Patty. Let me tell you, nobody could have puts me as ease the way she did.

Patty, Julie, Shane, and Ellie were absolutely fantastic to work with and we can’t recommend them highly enough. As a boutique agency, they were always available either by phone or email and amazingly helpful throughout the entire purchase process — something I’m not sure you’d get at a larger firm.

We just closed on our first house yesterday and I wanted to say what a great experience we had working with Patty, Julie, and Shane. We knew from our research that buying a house in SF is still pretty competitive and we wanted an agent who was patient enough to give us the guidance we needed as first time home buyers but was also savvy enough to give us an edge in a competitive market.

Patty and Julie are amazing. I had worked with a pretty incompetent real estate agent before finding them, and wow, what a difference the right agent makes! I love my new place, and I’m sure I couldn’t have gotten it without them.

Based on the overwhelmingly positive Yelp reviews, my boyfriend and I decided to try Domicile when we started looking for our first home. About 30 seconds into our first meeting with Patty, we knew we had made the right decision. She listened to what we wanted, put us at ease, told us we weren’t crazy when we told her our price range, made some suggestions, and sent us out to look at some open houses that very day. She even recommended an amazing mortgage broker who we got pre-approved with later that week.

Buying a house in San Francisco is something like getting dropped into the middle of the Serengeti with instructions to go bag a wildebeest. Difficult, even in the best of times, and in the bad times, well, you end up wandering around in dazed circles and slowly die of thirst.

We have known Patty and Julie since we bought our first house in 2004. They have since sold one TIC unit for us and we’ve bought another property through them. They know the market like no one else and are NEVER wrong on prices.

If you’re reading these reviews, then you are obviously looking for realtors. You can stop looking now. Seriously. Stop. Now. There is no one better in the City than Domicile Properties.

Domicile Properties is the best real estate firm you’re going to come across, period. My husband and I decided we wanted to buy property last fall. We also knew that the property we wanted was going to be unusual and a bit off the beaten path, and that we’d have to wait a while until we found it. While most Realtors like to shoehorn buyers into a sale as quickly as possible so they can move on to the next one, Patty and Julie understood what we were looking for and stuck with us for many moons, fielding us properties and advice the entire time.

My wife and I consider ourselves very lucky to have worked with Domicile. We were first time buyers in this market and were half-crazed with the prospect of buying a home in San Francisco.

Since we purchased our home through Domicile Properties, it was only natural we enlisted their services again when we were ready to sell. In this market, it really matters who you trust for the sale of your property.

Julie and Patty are fantastic! Patty was very patient during our search. We’ve both had homes before and were not in a rush to buy anything. Patty really stuck with us and helped us figure out what mattered to us. Once we settled on a place, we needed to arrange for renovations, and both Patty and Julie have provided invaluable assistance. They are also lots of fun and very well respected in their profession — a real asset to the process!
Amazing! I can think of nothing scarier or more overwhelming than buying a house. Julie and Patty walked me through it every step of the way. They had some great qualities that I needed at the time: patience, honesty, experience, sense of humor, kindness and enthusiasm. From our first meeting at their office to seeing properties, to making an offer, to closing they were there to help, advise and keep me from panicking.

So, what to say, what to say. I am one of the “picky friends” referenced in one of the reviews above. Of course four of the reviews here are from people I referred to Patty and Julie. I have referred over twelve clients to Domicile and every one of them came away happy.

Want to add that even 3 years after our home purchase, we continue to receive the benefits of working with Patty & Julie. Recently completed some kitchen upgrades and used their quarterly Contractor’s list to select an electrician who did a great job at a reasonable price. Also enjoy reading their e-newsletters for helping stay abreast of the SF real estate market.
These guys are amazing!

Deciding to work with Julie and the team for my first home purchase is hands down the best decision I’ve ever made. Period. Go me!

I worked with the crew at domicile properties in the height of the crazy market. They had me in the market, bidding on my dream house, and WINNING the auction, and hence out of the market, in less than 5 weeks. I can’t believe some of the heartbreaking stories I hear of people searching for a home for years and years and losing dozens of auctions. Look, there is a reason for this folks: YOUR BROKER MATTERS.

Attention to detail. Patience. Trust. Encyclopedic knowledge of the market. All things that can be found at Domicile Properties.
As first time sellers we selected Domicile by attending open houses, and observing realtors in action. Patty + Julie Rogers are head and shoulders above the crowd.

Patty was my realtor when I bought my house in 1996. Patty knew the house was for me during the first Broker Open House (Tuesday) and helped me get my offer accepted before the first Open House (Sunday).
This is all ancient history now — before Domicile and Julie. But through the years, Patty, Julie and everyone at Domicile have been a wonderful resource for real estate questions and repair and maintenance issues.
I know that I will call Patty and Domicile when it’s time to sell my home.
There’s so much more to getting a home happily sold than a “for sale” sign. I remember well the day I steeled my trembling fingers to dial Domicile, a first time home seller in a very uncertain marketplace. From the moment I first opened my door to Julie and Patty all the way to the moment I closed it for the last time and handed the keys over to the new owners, I felt blessed to have “Team Domicile” in my corner.

I have worked with Patty and Julie at Domicile Properties now on two occasions — the first in 2003 when my wife and I moved to San Francisco from NYC and purchased a fantastic 2-unit “fixer upper” in the Inner Sunset.
It was our first house, and Patty and Julie held our hands through the whole process.

My wife and I recently moved back to San Francisco from Manhattan. When we began the often daunting task of buying our first house, we were referred to Patty and Julie, at Domicile Properties. They were perfect in helping us to find our ideal house and location, and were also able to help us navigate tough mortgage markets. In addition to achieving our goal, we were fortunate to work with this friendly, thorough and professional team. We can honestly say that we found new friends at Domicile. Many thanks!

I can’t rave enough about Domicile Properties. My sister and I bought a duplex together in San Francisco. As first-time home buyers, the initial process of trying to buy in SF was daunting, to say the least. Both Patty and Julie Rogers were great to work with!

Patty and Julie are pros through and through. In a complicated market with loads of pitfalls, they are patient, thoughtful, and most of all helpful. Not only did they offer newbies the clear path forward, but they continue to stay in touch with their incredibly helpful newsletters and contractors list. So grateful for their help. Highly recommend them for professionalism, market knowledge and integrity.
My husband and I met Julie at an open house in Ashbury Heights about 6 years ago. We were the sort of couple that would check the MLS Listings and avoided realtors at any cost until we met Julie and Patty. We were impressed with their professionalism and expertise in the local San Francisco real-estate market. When it came time to sell our condo in Pacific Heights, we credit their marketing efforts, staging, and suggested list price, for the 200 interested buyers that toured in the first weekend. Our condo ended up selling in two weeks.

When my wife and I started looking for our first home, we were referred to Domicile by two separate friends, independently. We felt the serendipity of these referrals was too good to pass up. And good for us. Patty and Julie were not just seasoned professionals, they were a pleasure to work with. Within two months of meeting with them we put a successful bid on our home – and this was back in the seller’s market days of few years ago.

I was lucky enough to get a great referral for Domicile Properties. Patty and Julie were absolutely incredible in helping me find the PERFECT home for me. Intially, they sat down with me for over 2 hours asking me many questions about my real estate preference, lifestyle and wants and desires. They were efficient, thoughtful and just amazing in the care of my needs. And, within 30 days after getting connected to Patty and Julie, I was in escrow on a stunning condo in Noe Valley.

It is a joy to work with Patty and Julie. They have a great sense of San Francisco, the neighborhoods, the architecture, the buyers and the market.
Patty and Julie helped us sell two condos in the City and they were great! They were very nice and professional, knowledgeable about the market and the clientele. They made the process very clear and easy for us to understand. They were very patient and helpful with demanding clients like us.

Having a knowledgeable broker like Patty made all of the difference in my first San Francisco home buying and selling experiences. With many years of success in the local market, she has developed a keen eye for meeting her client’s expectations and producing exceptional results. You know from the first meeting that this is someone who obviously understands San Francisco real estate and will work with you closely throughout the process and smoothly navigate the inevitable challenges along the way. Professionalism with a personality. What more could you ask for?

I am glad to provide Domicile Properties my highest recommendation!
As a first time buyer who had been looking at the market for 3 years now, I followed the yelp reviews to Patty and Julie. Interestingly, I noticed that most people that review their realtors give 5 stars (you’ll no doubt notice that all the realtors have 5 stars!!!) meaning if they posted for them, they gave them a rave review, if they didn’t like them, they generally did not post. My guess – the client realtor relationship is personal enough where they feel awkward or uneasy posting anything negative or only slightly positive. With this in mind I went with the realtor with the most 5 star reviews, Patty and Julie.

When my wife and I were ready to purchase our first home 2.5 years ago, we came to Yelp for help. After interviewing several agents, we chose Domicile Properties. Patty and Julie came through for us like they did for their other clients. They have been a real pleasure to work with.

From beginning to end — and I just checked: from the very first appointment with Patty to the closing, the whole process took only 2 months and 7 days — Julie, Patty, and Ellie were fantastic!

We have bought and sold three houses in the past four years! Patty & Julie have been there each and every time! We wouldn’t even think of using anyone other than Domicile.
Five stars are not enough! Patty and Julie are the best. As a first time buyer they found me the perfect home. They are both so savvy and smart about the San Francisco real estate market.

Companies can still tout their own virtues, but client testimonials hold our collective feet to the fire. They kill off hyperbole. What you say about yourself had better match with what your clients say about you.
We love our clients and, according to them, they love us!
