We are blessed to have such a gifted + talented team Ackerman Realty Group provided! They all did admirable work in such an efficient manner to handle all of the stressful situations off our plate, dealing with our familys probate process. It is not an easy task, but they all made it such an enjoyable process. Craig and his team are a pleasure to work together! It does take a village to make it happen. I cant recommend him enough for his agile work and professionalism.Here is a highlight of our work together:1) Craig navigated two sets of attorneys representing an overseas-based family member in dispute of this probate case.3) 26 offers received.4) The home sold for $401,000 over the original asking price in just a few days.
We received 12 offers and the property sold for $221,000 over the asking price with no contingencies!The entire process from the time we met Craig until close of escrow was exactly two months.Working with Craig and his team was an exceptional experience. We’ve purchased and sold homes before, but Craig presented us with a unique approach to selling our property. He comes prepared with a vision and he has his own vendor team.Craig does his homework. Before we were scheduled to meet him, he provided us with a listing of comparable homes which sold in the area and explained how and why they fell short of maximizing their full sale potential. We realized that we needed to update our rental and prepare it to sell.Craig wants to work for you. Nothing will stop a determined man! We met Craig when he was on crutches! During our first meeting, he arrived with his team and shared his vision for our property. He knew its strengths and provided his contractor, Jason, with his many suggestions. By giving our property a much needed makeover, we could potentially improve our price point and the number of offers we could hope to receive.For two weeks, our property was under construction, the timeline we were given at our initial meeting. What a whirlwind but well worth it! Jason was a pleasure to work with! He thoughtfully considered our questions and suggestions, guided us and made adjustments when necessary.We would highly recommend Craig and his team! They were easily accessible throughout the entire process. It made our selling experience a truly pleasant one.
Working with Craig and his team was such a delight. We had 5 offers received on the bid date. The home sold for $175K over the asking price and we did this while the home was tenant-occupied during the entire process. Craig is very knowledgeable about the market and was there to answer all of our questions. He has a great eye for design and was able to help us make cost-effective decisions. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Real estate marketing often rings hollow with its banal designations...every single realtor is a top producer, yeah! I work with realtors regularly as an attorney, usually in difficult litigation settings. Craig Ackerman is top of class. Craig stands out as a professional in every sense of that word, and more importantly, he is a person of high character and integrity. He means what he says. His conduct is his bond. I recommend him without reservation. Recently, I was retained by the trustee of a trust estate with the legacy family home as the asset of primary value. It involved a family having to make the difficult decision to sell. Both sides had legal representation for landlord/tenant issues. I was litigation counsel. The occupants were challenging and tried to stop the sale of the home in many ways including denying access for inspections. Craig and his team of like-minded professionals were creative and practical. They persevered, creating a path for a successful conclusion. This matter had been going on for three years. Craig never lost his good humor. He was rock solid and focused in what seemed at times to be a quagmire of dashed expectations. You will be most pleased to choose Craig as your agent buying or selling.
#1 Realtor with amazing top-of-the-line care and boutique service.After living in San Francisco for almost 40 years, we decided to sell our home and move up north. The thought of leaving the city was a difficult decision and our condo hadn’t been upgraded for almost 15 years. There was a lot of work to be done if we wanted to sell it for the best price possible so that we could buy another home in a good location. Remodeling a home and trying to sell it seems extremely stressful. We were also on a very tight budget so we were concerned we wouldn’t be able to update our house to good selling standards.However, Craig Ackerman and his team made this the most easiest transition ever! He connected us with a mover, contractor, stager, and roofer (and this roofer was amazing! We had been trying to find a roofer who could fix our roof while keeping our rooftop deck for over a year and hadn’t had any luck. Craig’s roofer referral gave us a new roof in 3 days and upgraded our deck!). The entire house remodel was done within 1.5 weeks and with a very tiny budget. The end results looked spectacular that we were at a moment where we were like, “Love it or list it? Shall we stay since we love it?” We almost didn’t want to leave!Once it was listed, Ackerman Realty sold our condo within 6 days and it was the easiest process ever. The team at Ackerman Realty are so professional, attentive to detail, and easy to work with. They have the process down to a science and they take care of everything so you don’t have to worry, fret, or fear. We were thrilled with our house remodel and sale. We also sold it for $200,000 over asking!Next saga: we wanted to buy a new home. Another potential stressful situation. Craig and his team helped us find our dream home in our desired area with an impeccable school district. We put a bid on a home that 7 other people put bids on! We got outbid by a few of them, too. However, the sellers chose us because Craig had set us up with a fantastic package where all our finances were in a row and the package was strong, clean, and included personal touches like a letter with photos. In addition, Craig took the time to talk to the seller’s agent and get to know them and explain our situation to them. Craig understands people and knows how to make connections so it goes beyond just selling or buying a home. When we found that dream home, we got it all because of Craig.He establishes relationships that are professional, easy, and genuine. The people he works with respect him and do the job efficiently and timely. He was available 24-7 via text, phone, or email. We don’t know what more praise we can give to him. HE ROCKS!
We’re two school teachers who were having serious issues competing in a bear housing market in SF. We went through three agents and had moments where it felt futile and hopeless. Alas, came along Craig Ackerman, agent extraordinaire. With no time wasted, Craig got us our dream home. Trust when I say we couldn’t have got this home without Craig’s expertise and fast-acting. We’re impressed with his breadth of knowledge of the totality of the industry and with his team’s kindness and professionalism. We’ll forever be grateful to Craig.
I was very happy with Craig’s knowledge and leadership as we sold my mother’s home. He managed the contractors and vastly cut down on my involvement. I didn’t have to schedule workers, make decisions on materials or be present at the house. I was surprised at how fast he got the repairs and upgrades completed. And equally surprised at how fast he sold the property—6 days on the market—and for the highest price ever in the neighborhood.
We are (were) out of State owners of a rental property in San Bruno, CA. We made the decision to sell the house, which started the search for a real estate company that we could entrust the sale to. After many online searches, reading reviews, and phone interviews with many companies, we choose Craig Akerman Realty.Craig brought in his team of vendors to assist us in being our eyes at the property. Everything from meeting my tenants to taking possession of the keys and checking the tenant out to photographing the home, both before and after the resurfacing, to document the propertys condition. We had not seen the property in several years.Craig and his team created a resurfacing plan, and only once approved did the work begin. We were at first skeptical of his recommendation for resurfacing the house. We had planned to sell the house “as is.” We didn’t really want to put the money up front and we thought we would receive high enough offers. Are we glad we listened to Craig!From start to finish, we were kept in the loop and guided through the process and we were very excited to see we received 17 offers and $500K over asking.My only regret in this whole process is not getting to meet Craig and his people in person. Everyone we dealt with on the phone or through the internet, were very professional and pleasant. We have no hesitation in recommending Craig Akerman Realty to be your agent for any real estate needs in the Bay area.Victor & JoAnn McPherson
This amazing team at Ackerman Realty Group worked very hard to get the house left by our parents sold. It was an overwhelming situation, a very difficult process, and an extremely emotional time for our family, but now we can finally move on. With great appreciation to Craig, Charles, and Jessica. Thank you again!
Craig Ackerman’s team worked out very well for us in a number of ways. We initially interviewed 5 different real estate agents—however, Craig was the only one who showed up with everyone that was needed —including a contractor— at our very first meeting after an initial call by phone. This showed me how seriously Craig takes his business. The contractor was able to spot a few things that needed updating and between Craig and the contractor we were able to see how the place could be updated to be sellable within several weeks. Craig also was able to provide his estimate for what the property could be listed for, how he came up the number and what he thought might happen in the unclear market immediately post-COVID in March 2021 when we first started. The transformation of the condo was amazing with painting, bathroom update and a few new appliances and we received a great offer within in the context of competition from 3 other units in the same building on the market at the same time. What I appreciated from Craig was his honesty, initiative and determination in getting things on the market and off the market as quickly as possible. His team members were also invaluable with constant email communication about questions from potential buyers, keeping us on top of signatures needed for docusign and dealing with problems as they arose in the moment. Thanks Ackerman team!
Craig and his team were a pleasure to work with. Craig is very professional and knowledgeable about not only SF real estate, but also renovation work and how to fix up a home. This was immensely helpful to us as first time home owners. Craig is also very detail oriented and punctual. He was able to provide us with insights and details that we would have easily missed. He patiently walked us through the complicated process of reviewing contracts and submitting offers, and consistently followed up with us after that as well. Further, he never made us feel like we were being sold something; instead, he took care to make sure we were comfortable with any decisions. He and his team (Charles, Jessica) were always available whenever we had urgent questions and doubts. We highly recommend them to any homebuyer (whether first time or not)! Thank you, Craig and team!!!
Recently referred Craig and his team to a very dear friend who was relocating to San Diego. Craig immediately developed a custom plan to set their house up to receive the best offer possible. Within a week they had the house in a top selling condition and another week later several offers above asking price on the table. Thanks Craig, you and your team not only helped them to sell their house successfully, but also secure a new property in San Diego. So much appreciated.
“Craig Ackerman worked with my family during a very difficult time, over a duration of two years. He was attentive, insightful, and brought an army of vendors to tackle city inspections, pest remediation, and even financed a great portion of the work. Craig was not only an advisor, but he was a friend, and a trusted partner. I’m grateful for what he’s done. We received multiple offers three days on the market and a very quick uneventful close. He’s a master.”
I have been thoroughly impressed by Craig and his team. He was able to navigate through a difficult personal situation on our part (the sellers) and amidst the COVID epidemic to close our condo sale within 3 weeks of listing at 10% over asking! In addition, his team was unbelievably fast in executing the repairs needed for the condo to go on the market. Craig was always available (including odd hours of morning and night) to help answer questions and move things forward; he always had a solution to every problem we encountered - he is truly a “doer”. He always provided an unbiased opinion about the market, potential buyers and how things are going with the sale and did it in a very respectful and thoughtful manner. I will definitely use Craig and his team again for all my real estate needs.
My wife and I both work and we have two young girls. Craig met my wife and I separately at the home to facilitate our individual schedules. He walked us through our questions, on every level of the home, yard, and basement crawl space. He pointed-out the good, the bad and the ugly. There was no pretense. When we made a bid, Craig had a direct line to the sellers and secured the home at what we felt was a fair price given the intense competition. Craig saw to it that we got a home warranty, the roof warranty transferred, new roof work and a few other fixes and accommodations that gave us a good feeling. He is still in touch with us on contractors and ensuring we are happily settled into our new home. He does and means what he says.
Craig and his team did a fantastic job. Craig was professional, hardworking, and available for questions and concerns. The Ackerman Realty Group is an impressive team.
Craig Ackerman has been my real estate agent for fifteen years. He has helped me buy and sell several homes over that time. Moreover, as a trusts and estates attorney, he has helped me sell probate and trust properties. This year, I told him that I was interested in moving out of San Francisco and into Marin. He found the perfect house for my family within a budget I could afford. They views are gorgeous, the floor plan is open, and the neighborhood cant be beat. Needless to say, I am very happy with the purchase. In my experience, what separates Craig from all of the other realtors is his process. Craig and his team makes the experience seamless. From start to finish he guides you each step of the way, giving invaluable advice and making sure all of your questions and concerns are addressed. He always tries to think three moves ahead to make sure that nothing unexpected happens. He is excellent at staying in touch and highly responsive. Throughout it all he is calm, supportive, and patient. That combination of an excellent demeanor and a strategic game plan means you have an excellent advocate who truly has your best interest at heart and will make sure that you outshine the competition. Im looking forward to the next 15 years!
Craig has been exceptional real estate guru to work with. This is my second time buying a house in SF market & I wanted to make sure I go with someone who truly understands the markets and gets us the best deal possible. His knowledge and experience has helped us find a home below the market value in super hot SF market. He negotiated the price even after we went into contract, as we found small issues during inspection so we can get them fixed right away. Craig and his team are incredible at what they do and at the top of their game. He was also very patient while answering tons of my questions, last minute requests, walking me through his thought processes clearly. I strongly recommend Craig for any of your Bay Area selling needs.
Another agent attempted to sell the home. Craig came recommended by a family friend, aligned all the resources and got it done. He navigated a very complex situation involving a building engineer, inspectors and a difficult lender. He knows how to speak their language. We are very happy with the result that Craig delivered.
Craig helped us with a long and difficult home search. Over nearly a year, Craig met us at numerous properties to help us figure out which ones were worth offering on and which were duds. What sets Craig apart is that he looks at each property with a contractor’s eye—he sees the hidden flaws that we would miss, but that would cost a lot to fix or make us unhappy over the long term. Craig’s other superpower was offer strategy. For the house we purchased, Craig convinced us we needed to raise our offer just enough to get us into the running, and he was right. When the listing agent told him we were in the top three (of eight), Craig worked to convince her we were the best candidates. We love our home and we couldn’t have done it without Craig.
I would give Craig Ackerman and his team 6 stars if it was possible. From our initial meeting where Craig provided an honest assessment of my unit and made a variety of (cost effective) suggestions to improve the appearance of the condo to the vendors Craig brought in to complete the work (all on time and on budget) to the negotiation of the final sales price, Craig handled it all while maintaining constant communication. Craig knows the San Francisco market, to the point where his prediction of who the ultimate buyer would be was right on. If you are looking to sell a home in the Bay Area, calling Craig will be the best decision you can make.
We had a wonderful experience selling our property from across the United States with Craig and his team. They kept in constant contact, answered all questions and additionally put us in contact with a lot of valuable people and resources. Craig and his team got us 38 offers on our property. We highly recommend Craig and his team.
I think what distinguishes Craig is that he is a great manager,. He organizes a very competent and loyal team so that every detail is covered, he is in constant communication, nothing is dropped or forgotten, and he very effectively accomplished everything he promised--- and more --in a timely way during a very challenging time
After a year-and-a-half of searching for a country property to retire to, we found it--on a Wednesday. Next day, we went for a second look. Yup, it was THE one. On Friday, we rushed back to the Bay Area. We needed to sell our home in San Rafael pronto! While driving home, the phone rang. It was Craig--whom I’d had some professional dealings with in the past; and, who I knew could be trusted implicitly. “What’s up he asked?” I told him. “Why don’t I come over Saturday and we’ll see what we can do?” That was the beginning of a whirlwind ten days. By the following Monday, our house was on the MLS. A photographer was arranged for by Craig and his wonderful staff and photos were up by Tuesday morning. The group also arranged for home inspectors, roof inspectors, and City inspections--all by Friday. The Thursday Realtor Open House was a success with a large turnout, thanks to Craig’s outreach. Ditto for the weekend open houses. The house had been priced well to attract optimum interest. Knowing we were eager for a sale, Craig established a date and time for offer submissions ten days later. We got three offers. All above asking, just like he’d told us. Winning offer accepted. Done!From beginning to end, Mr. Ackerman and his staff handled everything with the utmost professionalism and aplomb. There are not enough good things to be said about the Ackerman Realty Group--except thank you--and keep up the good work. You have fans for life. Congratulations!
My family & I worked with Craig & his team well over a year ago. This review is way overdue. Excellence is the one word descriptor. A Gentleman & a Scholar would be the phrase.Craig understands real estate & the SF Bay Area market well. At the same time, he knows that each property is situationally unique. Therefore, Craig creates a specific strategy for you & your property by taking your general circumstances, how they apply in the SF Bay Area real estate market at that moment, and then adapting a game plan that is geared towards optimizing your situation at that given time. His approach is how you wish every professional you every work with would perform their craft.I truly enjoyed our experience working with Craig & his team, even though it was very emotional dealing with a long time family property. Craig understood how & when to be compassionate with us. In addition, he also knew when he needed to truly lead the charge to get things done. It was a delicate balance that he innately understood.If you are looking to buy or sell real estate in the SF Bay Area, you owe it to yourself to speak to Craig. You will be better off for it & there is a high probability you will learn something simply by giving him a call. Good luck!You have to be fluid because flexible is too rigid.
Craig was a pleasure to work with. He worked with me and in my best interests at all times. He kept me updated frequently and is the consummate professional.Really nice guy, too!Highly recommend with no reservations.
Craig did a great job of helping me and my fiance find and buy our new home. Not only did he help us find the right house a few blocks from the beach, but he came through big time! My fiance is so happy. Its the perfect home and the best part, Craig never tried to push anything that was over budget. His team was also extremely helpful & knowledgeable when it comes to potential upgrades which we took advantage of. That showed me Craig and his team listened to our needs and helped fulfill our dreams of owning a home.
I will never forget the day I met Craig Ackerman. He walked in, introduced himself, took a quick look around and seemed to formulate a plan. We sat down with him as he explained his process, methods and obligations to us. I knew we had found our realtor. The other realtors we spoke with didn’t have that certain appeal that Craig did. His knowledge and the way he commands a room were impressive. We went on a room by room inspection, where a lot of notes were taken. He made many suggestions that raised the level of appeal of this house. We signed on with him and never looked back. We moved out to facilitate the necessary and suggested repairs. The office staff made the inspection and paperwork processes painless. The professional photographs of our house, after being repaired, painted and staged almost made us want to move back in. The marketing process was everything he said it was going to be. Our house sold for much more than we expected. We wish the new buyers many years of happiness in a house that we called home for 24 years. I highly recommend Craig Ackerman and the Craig Ackerman Realty Group. They do what they say. We have moved out of state and unfortunately, we had to part ways with Craig. If we had been relocating in the S.F. Bay Area, he would have been our guy. The phrase I coined was “All aboard the Ackerman Express.”
Craig sold our first home in SF for 36% over asking! He brings over two decades as a shrewd negotiator with a keen eye for what will get his clients whatever they need and want out of their sale. He has a deep sense of the market and goes above and beyond to get deals done. It is obvious that Craign found the profession that meets his and his teams passion to help anyone in the SF do as well as they can on their sale. He listens well, is very responsive, has an eye for the relevant details, expertly leverages his deep awareness of the market, extensive network, and prior experience flipping homes with his parents growing up to go the extra mile. Seeing him in action, you know you have a seasoned expert on your side who is also fun to work with. He is able to coordinate with an entire team to move fast but doesnt get swept up in the emotions that can come with selling your first home. I would recommend him to anyone with any real estate needs in SF. You can thank me after he exceeds your expectations too!
My husband and I worked with Craig to sell our condo in San Francisco. We were leaving San Francisco shortly after our condo was listed for work; hence we were looking for someone we can trust to take care of it.Based on the research we did over real estate services in SF, his name kept popping up. We are so glad you trusted those reviews and went with him.He was so tentative and made us feel like he really cared. There were many times he had to deal with the buyer or many calls he had to take from us :) He was always available and made to sure got back to us as soon as possible if he didnt have the answer. He has a wonderful team and she was also very tentative and responsive.He was very knowledgeable of the market and gave us lots of insights. We were able to sell our condo quickly and at a wonderful price!Overall, we are both so happy we went with Craig. I would highly recommend him to any of my friends and family.
Great experience working with Craig and his team. Total professionals, straight forward, pragmatic and more. Craig has an incredible eye (and mind) for whats needed and how to get it done, and then, get-it-done. Made everything stress free - if you are the type of seller who want to and can keep emotions out of the selling process and are willing to delegate to an incredible team of professionals.
When my clients need a realtor, they are typically going through a challenging transition in their lives. Craig always approaches these clients and their families with care and consideration for what they are going through. He understands that they often have more than enough to worry about, and he ensures that selling their property is as smooth and straightforward as it possibly can be. For example, I know that if there are questions about titling, or if a document has to be recorded, my clients are not doing this work themselves—Craig and his team are on it. I know that Craig always strives to exceed expectations and that I can always trust he will take care of my clients.
Craig Ackerman and his group delivered for us. He is very professional and covers all the bases. Besides selling our house (the bottom line), he was always courteous, and he educated us and walked us through a difficult process. Kudos to Ackerman! Keep up the good work to help many others.
Craig & his team made the sale of our property an easy process that resulted in a quick sale at above listing price.They really know how to do it.
Craig Ackerman and his staff are true professionals. Craig had his team in my unit before my tenants moved out and a plan was put into place immediately. My calls were always answered or returned very promptly.There were no snags! The condo sold 25 days after it was vacated, with multiple offers, well over the asking price. Escrow closed 27 days after that. Thank you Craig, you are very good at what you do!!!
The Ackerman Realty Group recently helped me sell a home. My great aunt left me her house and there was just so much to do. It needed repairs, to be cleaned, and listed.They got the house fixed up, then put it on the market for me. I got plenty of offers and sold it above market value within three weeks. They worked with me to get the home sold quickly without exhausting my resources. I highly recommend Craig Ackerman and his team.
Craig Ackerman reached out to my family shortly after a family member had passed away. Needless to say this was a very stressful and emotional time for us. Craig was patient and understanding of our situation. After interviewing a few agents we decided to use Craig and his team because they gave us the impression that they could help us get the home ready for sale quickly.Craig is very knowledgeable about the market, is an expert in the San Francisco area, and has a true understanding of what buyers are looking for. Although hesitant at first, we decided to pursue all of his recommendations to get the house resurfaced and move in ready. He was able to envision what potential the house had, knew what he could do to attract more potential buyers to view the home, and made it all happen. The home required an extensive list of to do items throughout the entire property. The cost of resurfacing the home was a little intimidating since we were not sure if it would pay off in the end, but we definitely got our moneys worth since it drew more interest to the property which Craig had anticipated.There were a few hiccups during the resurfacing process, but the Ackerman team has great response time and made sure we were satisfied with their work. They made things right and followed through with all of our requests.The sale of the home involved parties in various states, but Craig maintained great communication with us to ensure we were all on the same page. He answered our questions throughout the whole process and was always readily available to help.Craig is very eager to earn your business and works hard to finish the deal. He has strong sales tactics and extensive experience. Although the market was starting to slow, we still received a few offers above asking price. Because we chose to go with Craigs recommendations, the house became the buyers dream home and we all walked away with everything we had hoped for.Even though we were initially torn between which agent to use, I am happy to recommend Craig Ackerman and his team because they were able to deliver as promised.
We live out of state and needed a realtor that would be there for us during the selling of our rental property. We searched the internet and interviewed top three realtors from our list. We are so glad that we found Craig. Craig is a very delightful person to work with. He is a highly effective communicator and well versed with the real estate market in San Francisco. We explained to him that we had a rental property for sale that had long term tenants and were concerned because of the complex San Francisco rental laws. Craig immediately helped us set up a plan of action and assembled a team to get our house ready for sale. We followed Craig’s recommendations and used the general contractors, landlord attorney and title company. Craig was with us every step of the way throughout the preparation and sale process. Each time we hit a wall, Craig’s expertise and guidance helped us hurdle the wall and forge on. Throughout the process, we have had 100% confidence and trust with Craig and his team. Craig’s plan helped us clear everything in advance that would come up during the sale due diligence which paid off big time and resulted a smooth closing. Its’ truly our pleasure to have known Craig. We could not have hoped for a better realtor. While words can’t do justice to our satisfaction and gratitude to Craig, we hope for those who are searching for a realtor to buy or sell can benefit from Craig’s wealth of knowledge and deep networks. You cannot find a better realtor who has as much experience and with such high caliber as Craig.
Craig found me my home and lender! So when I say I dont know what Id do without him I mean it. This was my first home and I purchased it on my own. He was always respectful, willing to work, and always showed me homes I could afford. I definitely suggest giving him a call prior to selecting a home.
Craig was our agent in our recent purchase of a single family home in San Francisco. As first time home buyers we had some trepidation about jumping in and needed guidance through the process. We also had a very specific checklist of what we wanted without a lot of room to budge on price. Craig was with us at every step in the process. When we wanted to put in our first offer he was there ready to pounce and closed the deal literally within hours. It was amazing. We are now in our dream starter home and couldnt be happier. Craig continues to check in with us and offers his advice as a contractor with the repairs we are having done. We could not recommend Craig more!
Craig was a huge help. I wasnt sure exactly what needed to be done and he was there every step of the way from listing to accepting and finalizing the offer. My old home was sold in a matter of weeks above what I asked for it! He and his team are definitely the reason it sold quickly. With their design tips and repairs they made the home look more appealing. I couldnt be happier with the outcome.
Craig really helped out a friend of mine. She and her husband were expecting a baby and needed to sell their much beloved home in SF so they could move to a bigger house. Craig did an awesome job helping them through a difficult transition.
Craig and his team helped us sell our house and did a great job! Ours was not the easiest transaction, however, his team was there to explain and assist us with everything. Real estate deals can get very complicated with a lot of moving parts, it helps to have people on your side that are experienced and capable.
If you are ready to move beyond just browsing incessantly on Redfin then you should be contacting Craig now. You will be hard pressed to find an agent more knowledgeable about the SF market and more focused on finding a home and deal that is tailor made for you. He is very patient and he genuinely cares about helping his clients find the right place for them. Craig has a deep network of real estate professionals (bankers, lawyers etc) that he will open up to you.His extensive knowledge of the market was invaluable in helping us navigate - avoiding bidding wars and spotting opportunity where others werent looking. His negotiation, interpersonal, and hustling skills helped us maneuver through the sometimes tricky escrow process.With Craigs help we are now living in our dream place and we couldnt be happier. At the end of the day thats the only metric that matters.
I really appreciate Craig taking the time to help me find a new place in SF. He made it a very smooth experience finding me the condo I was looking for. He walked me through every step of the way and answered all of my questions. Thanks Craig!
My elderly client needed to sell his home for a specific price in order to meet his retirement needs. Craig gave the client a detailed analysis about what specific repairs needed to be done in order to reach the target number. The client was hesitant to invest over 30k into a house he was ultimately selling but Craigs confidence won the client over. The client handed Craig and his team the keys and walked away to begin the next chapter of his life. Craig coordinated every detail of the repair and sale beginning with coordinating movers to help the client get settled in his new place, moving items no longer needed to auction, all the way to drywall patching, painting, floors sanding, refinishing counter tops and sinks, and minor electrical work. The client did not lift a finger nor answer a contractor question. When Craig hit the base target number for the sale, the Client asked Craig to try to squeeze a little more out of the prospective buyers and Craig came through. Craig Ackerman is a master negotiator and puts clients needs first. Without Craigs expertise, there was no way the client would have been able to reach his retirement goals.
I knew very little about real estate sales in California. The Ackerman Realty Group guided me though these complexities and enabled me to sell the condo in record time.
Craig and his team are first rate professionalsThere isn’t a better realtor to help you get the best priceDave l
