"Rebecca is San Francisco’s ultimate real estate insider — her access/connections/tentacles are everywhere. She is extremely responsive, always advocates for your interests, and is an expert negotiator. Rebecca also has an incredible rolodex, and opens doors to the best movers, designers, electricians and anyone you might need for your home."

Lenny Lieberman, Motion Pictures & Film

"The chance to work with the absolute best in any industry doesn’t come along every day, so I consider myself extremely lucky and even more honored to have been introduced to Rebecca Schumacher.

I was relocating to the Bay Area and needed to find a home quickly and uncompromisingly. Rebecca asked all the right questions and listened intently. I think she may have been more committed to me... achieving my goal than I was and it was her tenacity and drive that made it happen. She got me on the right track and kept me there throughout the entire process, which I will be the first to admit, was not an easy feat.

Rebecca is smart, articulate, and confident. She instilled in me the utmost confidence that I had the right woman by my side to negotiate the purchase of my new home and ensure that absolutely no detail was overlooked. But it was even more than all of that. Rebecca cared. There was no way she was going to let me make a hasty, poor decision.

Rebecca is a class act with impeccable taste and style and I thoroughly enjoyed spending time with her. Thank you Rebecca! You can consider me a client for life and even more so…a friend."

Christy Hannaford, Retail Executive

"Rebecca has an amazing gift for tracking down the perfect property in the competitive north side of San Francisco and has delivered for us twice. She listened to what our family wanted, practically and aesthetically, brought us opportunities both on and off the market, and tenaciously made it happen. Her expertise is especially evident in the Marina District. She not only lives in the neighborhood,... but she has real relationships with her neighbors and is fully aware of who might be interested in selling. We knew our best interests were represented during all negotiations, handled with expertise and utmost professionalism. We owe our pleasure with our home to Rebecca!"

Meghan Harris, Mother of twins
Greg Harris, Private Banking

"As a first time homebuyer, I could not have asked for a better agent than Rebecca. She was incredibly patient, helping me look for the perfect place over a period of several years as my requirements came together. Never one to waste my time with off-point options, she expertly urged me to step ever so slightly out of my comfort zone. We found 'the' place thanks... to her deep knowledge of SF north side properties. She also carefully read through the disclosures and contract to flag key items for me – a tremendous help given my hectic schedule. Rebecca made the home buying process seamless for me, yet her help did not stop at closing. With Rebecca’s extensive experience in renovation and exquisite taste, she provided enormous value post-close with homeowner tips and design resources to help me make my new home mine. She went above and beyond any of my expectations in this respect. I would recommend Rebecca to anyone buying or selling a home, and I continue to seek her counsel and recommendations."

Courtney McBean, Venture Capital

"My partner, Rich Royse and I have completed 14 real estate transactions in the last 19 years. It was a fortuitous day that we encountered a Rebecca Schumacher listing. Of course she came to the property on a moment’s notice to show it to us. Thus began a two-year search for the perfect home in San Francisco. She is the most professional realtor we have... ever had the pleasure with whom to work. Her follow-through and anticipation of needs working on our behalf was non-stop. Her communication is impeccable. And when we finally identified the right property, we closed within 15 days upon our initial viewing, at the price point we desired. Rebecca Schumacher is one class act!"

Rocky Blumhagen, Singer/Actor & former Radio Executive

"Some refer to Rebecca as the ninja realtor. Ninja definitely describes Rebecca’s grit and tenacity when she found, negotiated and closed our deal at The Pacific. Ninja, however, doesn’t begin to describe the thoughtfulness, integrity and love she puts into everything she does. Once we purchased our property, Rebecca’s unparalleled contacts with trades people & professionals were instrumental in fine tuning our home. You are in the... best of hands with Rebecca and she always has your back."

Elizabeth & David Zott, Attorneys

"Rebecca is thoroughly professional, detail-oriented, wired into the latest developments, quick, patient, nice and in every way a pleasure to work with."

Shanin Specter, Law Partner

"I couldn’t be more thankful to have Rebecca in my corner as I navigated my first home purchase in San Francisco. I was lucky enough to be introduced to Rebecca via a professional connection, and I would not have been successful in my outcome without her deep market expertise, particularly at The Pacific where I was looking to purchase. As a resident of the building herself, she... was able to give me an insider’s peak at the amazing amenities, an opportunity to meet the wonderful professionals serving the building and many friendly neighbors – true selling points in choosing to live in such a 5-star building!

Furthermore, Rebecca made navigating the first-time home purchasing process far easier than I could have imagined. She gave detailed explanations of the various steps throughout the process and was professional in her tough negotiations with the sellers. To say she is responsive and thorough is an understatement as she, and her amazing assistant Sarah, were rapidly responding around the clock, doing check-ins on the unit and diligently working with many different constituents to ensure a successful and timely close.

Lastly, now that I’ve successfully closed on my residence, Rebecca’s support continues with the connections she makes to all of the various vendors that have been helpful to her and her clients throughout the years. Rebecca and her team went more than above and beyond. I’m lucky to have gotten to know her over the previous few months, and now I’m looking forward to being her new friendly neighbor in the building. Thanks Rebecca and team for an amazing experience!"

Eric Doolittle, Private Equity

"If you're looking for a real estate agent who is not only deeply knowledgeable but also genuinely cares about your unique needs and aspirations throughout the home buying process, we wholeheartedly recommend Rebecca Schumacher. Rebecca guided us through our relocation journey from the Oakland Hills to Pacific Heights with a level of care and expertise that went beyond what we could have anticipated.

Her extensive experience was invaluable as... we navigated the complexities of transitioning from our expansive suburban home to San Francisco city living, all without compromising our need for space within our new home. She understood that we weren’t just buying a property—we were choosing a neighborhood and a lifestyle. With her expert insights, we found the perfect home that reflects our priorities: a walkable neighborhood close to nature, great restaurants, and shops along with a feeling of safety and connection to the local community.

Rebecca's warmth, unwavering professionalism, and passion for advocating for us in one of the nation’s most competitive markets made the entire process seamless. She took the time to understand our goals and consistently provided thoughtful, detailed advice on every aspect of our search. Thanks to Rebecca, we found not just a house but a place that truly feels like home. We recommend her without reservation to anyone looking for a dedicated, insightful, and caring partner in their home-buying journey."

Christina Villarreal, Psychologist
Brian Patterson, Global Attorney

"Rebecca will forever be known as our 'real estate ninja', having helped us purchase an off-market house on our favorite street in San Francisco. She took our admittedly demanding wish list in stride, leveraged her personal contacts, and worked tirelessly to create an opportunity for us to make a preemptive offer in a white-hot market where bidding wars are the norm. Rebecca's tenacity, meticulous nature, integrity, and wealth of... Marina real estate knowledge make her an exceptionally effective agent who gets outstanding results for her clients. We truly appreciated her confident and thorough approach, and were amazed at how responsive and communicative she was during our search. We could not be more thrilled with our new home, and to have made a wonderful friend in the process."

Katie Miller, Attorney
Rich Miller, Teacher

"In my business life, I am very focused on providing a high touch 24/7 client relationship. Rebecca goes even beyond that — over the course of our home search, she acted as advocate, coach, cheerleader and quarterback. She never let us settle when things got tough and even vetoed a few options we would have accepted but that didn't really meet our life goals. Rebecca saved... us time, money and heartache—and got us into our beautiful home. I met many real estate people during our journey and could not imagine using anyone other than Rebecca."

Michael Doonan, Retained Executive Search

"Rebecca is a different kind of realtor - in a very positive way. She asks exploratory questions, listens, facilitates prioritization. Impressive market knowledge, early access to upcoming properties and valuation advice all served me very well. Attentive to details, yet always with a high-level perspective, Rebecca deserves strong credit for finding my great place in San Francisco."

Steve Krognes, Biotech Exec

"Everyone warned us that buying a home in San Francisco would be a drawn out, arduous and frustrating process. I can't say that this was our experience. With Rebecca leading the charge, we got an early look at a house, negotiated an attractive price and sailed through the closing. I'm just glad I don't have to negotiate against her in my professional life."

Ilana Cohen, Interior Designer
Dave Zilberman, Venture Capitalist

"Unlike other agents, Rebecca never ‘sells’; instead she listens — to what you say, to what you don't say, and what your body language reveals — to develop a true understanding of what you are looking for. She asks the right questions and knows the market. Despite the uncertainties of the economy, complex family dynamics and a challenging international close, Rebecca's skills, dedication and passion were indispensable in helping me secure my dream home."

David Pan, International wine entrepreneur

"This was a journey. And took a lot of people doing a lot to complete. At the Center was the heart and energy you put into it, Rebecca. Thank You for both your knowledge and commitment to the successful outcome.
We are happy!"

Larry & Lorna

"I recently relocated back to the Bay Area after being away for several years. Rebecca came highly recommended by a friend of mine. She asked lots of questions and very quickly gained a keen understanding of what was important to me in a home. She was so completely engaged in the process that I felt like I was her only client. She even succeeded in... overturning an HOA Board decision that would have precluded my two cats! Her organizational skills, communication and sense of urgency prevented it from being a stressful endeavor but rather made it an enjoyable and fun experience."

Patty King, Consumer Products

"Rebecca is one of the few premier agents who truly have their clients’ interests at heart. What we found so extraordinary—from the minutest detail to sensing our more subtle reactions—is that nothing misses her attention. When you combine her attributes with one of the nicest people we know, we feel you have the best realtor in San Francisco."

Cynthia Schuman Banks, Artist

"While one of us has had the pleasure of working with Rebecca previously, I am now happy to have joined the Rebecca fan club. The mere fact that there is only one name associated with real estate in this household says it all.
Rebecca is all about execution. We came to her looking for some direction on where to buy a house and what sort of properties were possible... based on our budget. When we quickly identified a contender, Rebecca went in full “Rebecca mode”. Lots of organized interactions, professional, pleasant, and extremely responsive, always looking after our interests along the way. Rebecca maneuvered us through the process from offer to close.
Throughout this process, we trusted Rebecca and her team as our expert advisors. As said by many others, Rebecca is extremely well connected in San Francisco and will find anyone you may possibly need for anything real estate related (and probably more). She connected us with the right people to make this new property our home for years to come. Her class and style are ever present in her home improvement recommendations as well.
Forever thankful to make this happen for us, Rebecca.
With the most respect!

"

"Rebecca found me the perfect home for my lifestyle and has been a great investment as well. At the time I going through some significant life changes and needed to find a smaller home, in a safe and vibrant neighborhood that also had a rental space that could generate some needed income. While this was a hard ask, she was sensitive to my needs and after tremendous research found... me the ideal place, before it was even on the market. She is the most professional agent I have ever worked with which I think is a testament to her earlier years as a very successful entrepreneur. I would recommend her highly."

Laura Thompson, Market strategy for non-profits

"Rebecca took the time to understand us and what we wanted. We never felt like she was offloading properties on us (as we had felt with other agents). She always gave us her honest opinion - if we walked into a property and we knew it wasn't for us, Rebecca knew it too and we walked out together.

Rebecca found us our dream home, meeting all of our criteria.... She gave us her expert direction and endless knowledge – from knowing the market, planning our home needs in the short and long term, placing a bid and navigating the mortgage process. She made the daunting process fun. Thank you Rebecca!"

Lindsey Guest, Beauty Products Founder

"Rebecca not only knows her market, but she understands the need to get to know her buyers well. That combination makes her amazingly efficient. We spent 5 days in San Francisco, completed a successful negotiation, and did an inspection on the property that we purchased the morning before we left for home. We were able to close in a two week time frame. We have worked with many... realtors over the years, but we doubt that any of them other than Rebecca would be able to accomplish that feat with such aplomb. We recommend Rebecca Schumacher heartily, and without reservation."

"Rebecca assisted my wife and me in the purchase of a Russian Hill apartment, our first real estate purchase in many, many years. I cheerfully offer my highest praise to Rebecca and her team -- it is a pleasure to work with professionals. Their expertise, organization and communication were akin to what I have experienced from a Fortune 500 acquisitions team and greatly exceeded my rather demanding expectations."
