Chris Saul recommends Dan McLean

Dan helped me move to SF and he helped me move away. He did a great job organizing a perfect stager for my house and eventually getting it sold in a very tricky market. He was always in touch with status and his experience and market advice helped us get the pricing strategy right and eventually helped secure a good sale. I’d recommend Dan to anyone looking to buy or sell in SF!

Brook E Mantia recommends Dan McLean

Selling the family home of almost 50 years was a very emotional proposition, but Dan was so kind and patient, he made what could have been scary & nerve-wracking seem almost effortless. I'd never sold a house before, so it was all new to me. I am so grateful for his knowledge & expertise; he really got me through. Dan is absolutely the best, I highly recommend!

Laura Lynton recommends Dan McLean

I enlisted Dan McLean to conduct the sale of a beautiful home in the Marina. It was a very complicated transaction, given the specific timing of the sale: market values, particularly in San Francisco, have suffered greatly since June 2022, and this home was ready to market in September 2022. The sale was further complicated by an out of area seller, the legalization of the ADU, and rising interest rates. Dan came up with a strategy to market the property to very high-end realtors, as well as directly to residents of smaller homes in the area who may need more space. The property was under contract in 10 weeks, during an extremely sluggish sales period (19 sales - including this one - in the second half of 2022, a low not seen since early Covid February 2020, and significantly lower than the 39 sales in the corresponding period in 2021). Through it all he was organized, professional and unflappable, always willing to lean in a bit more than an agent ordinarily would have given the out of area seller. He was also knowledgeable as to the complexities of renting the ADU, should the buyer have wished to pursue that option. If you are buying or selling San Francisco residential real estate, you'll be in very capable hands with Dan McLean!

Ahmad Mohazab recommends Dan McLean

I’ve known Dan for it seems like forever. He’s bought things for us and he sold things for us. He’s like a member of the family. He has this great sense of humor. That’s infectious. Infectious in a good way. I’ve always enjoyed working with him, ever since he was a young agent, even now when he is a slightly older and more grizzled version. In all seriousness, he’ has his pulse on the neighborhood and the project that he’s working on and he represents very well. I’m honored to count him and Jesus as my friends.

Wendy Poinsot recommends Dan McLean

We felt at ease with Dan from the first moment and appreciated that he was direct, honest, and at ease with us. His experience in and knowledge of our particular market (single family home, Sunnyside) was apparent and we decided there was no need to even interview another agent for our sale. When we met him we were still 6 months out from our sale date. He kept in touch with us along the way steering us toward our goal of an early September sale. When the date approached, Dan assessed the changing market and, we feel, came up with exactly the correct selling price to make the sale happen. And it did. In spite of a slowing market overall, our house sold over asking within ten days. We very highly recommend him and his team.

Claudine del Rosario recommends Dan McLean

Dan McLean made the sale of my previous home exceptionally easy for me. He was able to get a very competitive price and I was very pleased with the results. He was also incredible patient and kind as I was recovering from surgery at the time of the transaction.

Wendy Buffett recommends Dan McLean

physician

We are deeply grateful for Dan's market expertise, patience and referrals for staging and gardener who helped us prepare our home in San Francisco for sale. He walked us gently through this process with wise guidance and a calming perspective. His experience with the ever-evolving SF market helped us price our home well and we sold way over asking to very happy buyers. I would highly recommend Dan for his impeccable professional and personal qualities.

Michael Lopez recommends Dan McLean

Vice President of HR

Dan did an excellent job helping us understand our options. As new to the area, he was patient with us as we explored neighborhoods. His knowledge of the market is top-notch, and he helped us avoid some potential money pits. I can't speak more highly of his authenticity, honesty, and expertise.

Philip Kirk recommends Dan McLean

I have used Dan to help me buy two times and also help me sell my home. Dan is the best - a true professional who takes pride in his work and owns every detail of the process. As a buyer he helps you find the right home and uses his uniquely built network to "know" the market and best price to win. As a seller he has a whole deep set of experts to help prepare your home for selling and does an awesome job managing the whole process. I have referred many others to Dan, and would use him again in a heartbeat!!

Karen and Tom Brugge recommend Dan McLean

The caliber of knowledge, skill, wise counsel and support Dan provided was pivotal to our very successful home buying process. Dan listened to what we needed, looked at property with us, lent us his expertise, listened and responded promptly to any concerns along the way. Each time we met with him, it felt like he put our concerns first and foremost. He was great support as we navigated the process of buying a home. We
landed in just the right place for us. Thank you, Dan !

Steve Hayes recommends Dan McLean

Dan was fantastic. I couldn’t have asked for a better realtor. My situation required me to move out of state before my sale. Dan handled everything for me. He was friendly, accommodating & extremely professional. He got me a great price in a short time. I highly recommend Dan.

PK Kilty recommends Dan McLean

Dan was more than a real estate agent to us, he was a true partner. By patiently explaining how things would work during a pandemic era property sale, and answering our many questions, Dan was able to make a complex process seem simple.
In addition to his own vast knowledge of how everything would work, Dan's network of vendors and sources proved invaluable while we prepped the house for sale, and while we made dozens of strategic decisions along the way.
We definitely give a five-star rating to Dan McLean!

Phillip Bensaid recommends Dan McLean

Dan McLean is amazing. He is a truly thoughtful, savvy and dedicated partner. In my house hunt, Dan was always willing to take me anywhere with vey little notice and given how hard covid has made house hunting was extremely diligent and patient, planning and coordinating complicated covid safe outings. I never felt pressured and always felt taken care of. In addition, he knows every Realtor in San Francisco and can help you get the information you need in what is otherwise a very opaque process. Four thumbs up. Thanks Dan!

Bob Melk recommends Dan McLean

When I decided to sell my home in San Francisco I contacted 3 realtors. Each had solid experience and great references. I selected Dan because he was always quick to respond, had great confidence with details explaining his recommended approach. Dan is knowledgeable, friendly and approachable. My home was listed in the mists of the Covid outbreak when there was lots of uncertainty. Dan approached the task with the same confidence and experience. He was always checking in on changing conditions and providing updates proactively. Selling your home is always stressful but working with Dan was unquestionably the best choice and delivered a successful outcome. I highly recommend Dan.

Garry Horne recommends Dan McLean

Director of Pharmacy

During the pandemic Dan worked hard with us to get the house ready to list. He was on top of things throughout the process. Although there could be no open house or broker tours our home sold within a week and we received a great price over asking. Dan was terrific and we can’t say enough great things about him!

Jack Faia recommends Dan McLean

Dan McLean had been recommended by our realtor In Monterey when we decided to sell a small house we had owned for many years in North Beach. He gave us very good advice on the timing of the sale and then guided us through the entire process without us ever needing to go up to the city. He kept us updated on every step of the process including the legal requirements and preparing the house for inspections and open houses. The process of counter offers went quickly and the closing of escrow went very smoothly
The bonus was that we netted more from the sale than we had planned on.

Laura Cavanaugh recommends Dan McLean

Dan did a fantastic job selling our house in San Francisco. We were living out of state for most of the process, and Dan took care of all of the details (tidying up the house, small maintenance issues, staging, etc.), without a hitch. We were very happy with the selling price and, as a bonus, Dan was a true pleasure to work with - professional, engaging, responsive, trustworthy, and respected and experienced in the unique SF market. He came highly recommended by another realtor we had worked with in the past, and I knew we were in good hands from the start.

Dr Marcus Conant recommends Dan McLean

CMO Conant Medical Group

Dan McLean is everything you would want on your side when you go to sell your property.
Ten years ago I sold a large residential Victorian that we were using as an office.. Dan negotiated an excellent price for that building.
When I went to sell my home in San Francisco in April, I turned to Dan. Again, Dan did an outstanding job of obtaining the price I wanted with a minimum of effort on my part.
Dan is upbeat, personable and extremely knowledgeable. Best of all he kept me appraised all of the negotiations and always responded immediately when I called.
I can recommend Dan without reservation.

Kyle Urbaniak recommends Dan McLean

Director of Industrial Design - COO

Dan was extremely helpful throughout the process. We had never been through it and he always made us feel like asking questions was ok and made us feel comfortable because he has all the answers! Dan is almost always early, which is an amazing and reliable quality. He is laid back, yet helps motivate you to keep pushing when things just aren’t going your way. Sometimes it felt like I had known Dan forever, but we haven’t. That’s very nice when you are going to be working with someone literally daily for a couple of months. I would recommend him to anyone I know.

Michael Sharpless recommends Dan McLean

Environmental Analyst and Attorney

Dan is a consummate professional. More that just knowledgable and astute about the market in San Francisco, Dan is a nuanced and effective communicator about conditions that affect the market in general and about individual homes like mine. Dan asks insightful questions and attentively listens. Really listening to the client is not an attribute you can find with every agent, but you will with Dan. The sale of my home presented some challenges. Dan was always accessible, offering advice and options. And for a nervous seller, Dan was calm, thoughtful, optimistic and always confident that we could craft solutions. And he did. I could not have asked
for more. Dan McLean has my unqualified and highest recommendation.

Jean Johnson recommends Dan McLean

Dan did a wonderful job selling my condo. He helped me get the unit ready to sell and had all the right contacts for good people to do the work. Dan was right on top of things when we had to deal with the City of San Francisco and stayed there through the whole process. I greatly appreciate all his work and advice through the selling process. Dan is a very good man to work with.

Luis and Patricia Farrar-Rivas recommend Dan McLean

My wife and I have known Dan for 20 years and we've witnessed his commitment to, and his success in the Real Estate market in The Castro. While other realtors have come and gone, Dan is still there. Dan helped us buy our condo back in 2003 and he was the go to guy when it came to sell in 2018.

Dan follows the market trends, the business, and he is a problem solver. He's also prompt, courteous, a true professional.

If you are considering a real estate purchase or sale I recommend you give Dan a call.
