Eddie O?Sullivan

We were referred to Eddie by a satisfied UCSF prof through our son. The market in San Francisco is always crazy – either too hot or too cold. On top of that we had a specific need and specific time frame that we really had to meet. A recipe for disappointment. On top of that, we were new to the SF market with this need only coming up two months ago. Also, we were interested in an exchange. Through Eddie, we were pre-​qualified by a bank meeting our specific financial situation. Without that, we wouldn’t have had a chance at all to accomplish our goals. So, long story short, the luck (read, efforts) of this Irishman worked for us. Ten days ago we closed on the perfect location and unit. It was painless (for us) transaction even with Chandelier-​Gate LOL. (Sellers are always interesting…) He makes it look effortless with the many contacts he has. We were we lucky, sure, but I would trust Eddie to get the best out of the market even if it takes months and multiple offers. I would go to him again for either buying or selling. He knows his stuff and has high quality contacts.

Eddie O’Sullivan is truly my realtor for life! He is one of the best and is certainly the most professional realtor I have ever encountered. He assisted my partner & I in purchasing our first San Francisco house in 2008. He walked us through a nightmare closing and saved the deal when the seller almost lost the house to foreclosure! In 2014 he sold the house for us, again dealt with the maze of San Francisco property sales life getting us the best of several offers. I will never make another property sale or purchase without Eddie O’ and his staff there to guide. Thanks for all of your hard work Eddie.

Eddie is simply the best! Thank to him, we found the perfect home in San Francisco for our family. He was always very patient, looking for the best place for us, giving us advice. He was always very positive and professional. He will not let you buy a home just to buy it, he will make sure you make the best investment possible and that it will be the best fit for your family. He takes your case very personally which is amazing.
He also knows everybody: constructors, electricians, etc… If you need anything, he always have someone on hand to help you.
We will definitely call Eddie when we need a new home!

«Eddie has been my real estate agent since 2009 when I was going through a
divorce. It was a difficult transition for me and I needed a real estate
agent who was knowledgeable and savy but also gentle and understanding.
Eddie is calm, warm and patient and always listened attentively to all my
parameters. He never pressured me even after looking at numerous places,
putting bids in, and then ultimately changing my mind and purchasing the
property I was already renting. Eddie’s skilled negotiating strategies
enabled me to get an incredible price on the unit. He’s wiling to take
smart chances and has a comand for the SF market. A few years later I had
the opportunity to work with Eddie again, this time for the sale of the
property I had lived in while married. Again, an emotional transaction for
me, but Eddie made it fun and low stress. He handled everything
seamlessly…from carpenters, stagers, marketing to the final sale
transaction details. I felt like I was in good hands and never doubted his
choices. He kept me informed with every step through the process, always
had a positive upbeat attitude exhibiting strength and professionalism. I
trusted him completely. While I’m sitting pretty and not planning a move
or sale for awhile if/​when I do it will be Eddie O’Sulliavan that I reach
out to… my real estate agent for life is his slogan that he more then
lives up to ! »

I feel very fortunate to have met Eddie. He is a true professional and such a great person. I feel I got the best deal possible on my property purchase. It’s all due to Eddie. I was introduced to Eddie by a friend who was working with him. I met with Eddie and he discussed my options and explained the whole process. Buying a property in San Francisco is a daunting experience. Eddie made it seem easy. Once you purchase a property the relationship does not end there. Eddie has advised me on what renovations would increase my property’s worth the most. I recommend Eddie to all my friends who are looking to purchase a property.

I really like Eddie and enjoy working with him. He has really good working relationships with many other area realtors, and many great contacts in related industries. He knows the market really well and is a top notch guy.

If there is one thing that is true, it is that buying a house in this market in San Francisco is generally impossible and a heart wrenching experience. Unless you have a suitcase of $ 3M in small bills that you can show up with at an open house –and even then you’ll have 3 other people to bid against. But, Eddie guided us to successfully do the impossible — buying a single family house in one of the coveted inner neighborhoods of SF. He stuck through it with us for 9 months, 4 unsuccessful offers (which is BTW, 2 – 3 less on average than any one we have talked to who has bought a single family in San Francisco recently) — including a seller who decided not to sell post-​offer — and worked his magic on the house to get us the house we eventually bought. I don’t know all the behind the scenes drama but I know he made a full court press to get us this house and we probably wouldn’t have gotten it with any other realtor. And he stuck through the whole closing process with us too.
Other things to know:
1. He knows everyone — which is what you want in a realtor. In addition, when we went to open houses, listing agents would ask us who our realtor was and we’d say Eddie O’ and they would say «oh, he’s a great agent.»
2. He knows and has seen everything related to real estate in San Francisco. He can answer any question and recommend someone for any need you might have (ex. insurance agents, contractors, house cleaners, etc).
3. He NEVER gets depressed about the situation (even after spending some of his Thanksgiving long weekend dealing with a difficult seller).
So we’d definitely recommend Eddie — and we have!

Eddie did an awesome job walking me through buying my first home in San Francisco. When trying to get a head in such an insane real estate market as San Francisco it really helps to have a realtor like Eddie on your side to help navigate the craziness. I Would 100% recommend him to anyone considering the impossible task of buying real estate in San Francisco and the Bay Area in general.

I really feel like I lucked out with Eddie. He was actually referred to me by my mortgage broker (David Devlin), who was referred to me by my financial advisor (Jackie Kleinman). It seemed too easy, but boy am I glad I worked with him.
Not only has Eddie helped me get the house of my dreams in an incredibly tough market, but he was also by my side through the entire buying process, including a long conference call on Christmas Eve as I signed the papers. There were a few complications that were outside of our control, but with Eddie on my side, I could trust him to have my back and help minimize my stress (especially reviewing all the docs!). In fact, when I talk to others about what they went through, I marvel at how easy my purchase was.
I cannot recommend Eddie more. He also has a strong network throughout the city, and can «read» situations perfectly. I almost felt bad for the sellers– Eddie was so good, I could see their realtor’s weaknesses, and I was so glad Eddie was on my side. San Francisco is the market where you have to have the best to compete, and Eddie/​David/​Jackie are my «A+ team».

Eddie is one of the most professional individuals I have worked with. He made buying a home an easy and seamless transaction. He completely puts the needs of his clients first and makes sure to get to know you so he can find you the right fit. You MUST work with Eddie!

If you need a real estate agent, look no further than Eddie O’Sullivan. This guy is amazing! He educated us on the San Francisco market and shared his experience & expertise to help us become savvy buyers. We will never use anyone else. His expert knowledge of construction, building codes, remodeling strategies etc… helped us avoid homes with shoddy workmanship or at least know what would be involved if we did purchase a particular house. We ended up buying a great place in the Sunset. Eddie never put any pressure on us and it was a very positive experience working with him. Save yourself a lot of stress and call Eddie first.
