More About Me
Top Producing Broker Associate, Michael Salstein is involved in San Francisco Real Estate! Having called San Francisco my home since 1985 I know the neighborhoods, microclimates, and the best places to eat! With over 20 years as a full-time Realtor, I am completely sensitive to the fact that you only have one opportunity to sell your home and you will be treated with the highest level of professionalism and respect. I am extremely service oriented and a consummate communicator. As an experienced negotiator, you can rely on and trust me to maximize the sale price of your property and provide you with the best possible guidance when negotiating with one or more offers on your property. My research is thorough, and I will spend as much time as necessary working with clients who are first-time sellers, so they are comfortable and able to make sense of what can be an overwhelming process. I am a member in good standing of the National Association of Realtors, the California Association of Realtors, and the San Francisco Association of Realtors.
