Realtor since 2005
As a third-generation San Francisco native, I’ve worked with hundreds of home buyers and sellers, guiding them through the complex Bay Area market. I cover the San Mateo and San Francisco real estate markets. For areas beyond, I network with agents across the nation & can make a recommendation if you're moving out of the area.
I know buying or selling a home can be a stressful and frustrating experience when you are not working with the right agent.
My first home purchase was at age 23 and a subsequent purchase was a 5-unit rental property in my late 20’s. I’ve turned my passion as a young home buyer and rental property owner into one of the San Francisco Peninsula’s most successful real estate practices because I know everyone deserves an agent who will be their advocate and guide.
I’m overwhelmed with gratitude for the 5-star reviews on Yelp that many of my clients have shared of their positive experiences working with me because of my drive to serve them.
My passion is in helping others find their dream home and reap the benefits of homeownership. I love the feeling of seeing others reach their goals through real estate. I’d love to help you too.

Cheryl Bower Presents 875 Indiana Unit 324, San Francisco, CA Zen Dogpatch Condo for Sale
This 1 bedroom/1.5 bath condo is in the heart of historic Dogpatch, with its tree-lined streets, interesting shops and eateries and the largest concentration of 19th and 20th-century workmen's cottages in San Francisco.
This third-floor corner condo has the benefit of privacy & natural light but also walks out to a street-level entrance on the Minnesota side of the building. At the unit’s entrance, there is a fresh air entry overlooking a bamboo garden, in-unit washer/dryer, a modern kitchen, one car parking, even a storage locker. The deck overlooks the interior Zen reflecting pool.
Residents also enjoy a state of the art gym which includes a Peloton , a media room & the services of a concierge.
Esprit Park is down the block, offering stately redwoods, picnic areas and an off-leash dog area which contributes to the feeling that this is a verdant oasis in an urban environment.
When it was built in 2009, Esprit Park received the coveted New Community of the Year award. The complex, over an astonishing 1.9 acres, melds a historic portion of the original Esprit Corporation with spacious, thoughtfully designed units.
Public transportation could not be more convenient: the Third Street rail connects to downtown & CalTrain is another commute option. With a high walk score and many eclectic shops, restaurants, breweries, and wine tasting rooms it does not come as a surprise that Dogpatch has been featured in Bon Appetit magazine.

Resources to help with sheltering in place during the COVID-19 pandemic
Hi friends,
It has been an unprecedented past few weeks as our world faces historic challenges with the coronavirus pandemic. First and foremost, we wish to send our love and support.
There is encouraging news that sheltering in place is flattening the curve in the Bay Area.
Below are a few resources that hopefully will make the next few weeks a little easier as we continue social distancing.
We are enjoying prepared meals from Hi-Lo Catering. Generous portions, reasonably priced & delivery to most of the S.F. Bay Area including San Francisco & San Mateo County. Most meals can be frozen.

If you’re not familiar with Instacart, I highly recommend this service for grocery delivery from local stores.

An online food staples company that we are trying out is Thrive Market. They are experiencing delays with shipping.

We are enjoying the paid subscription to New York Times Cooking. Fantastic recipes & meal inspiration.

Helping sellers & buyers in San Francisco & San Mateo County -
Do open houses work? Today's seller tip is about one piece of my marketing program
Full post here: https://cherylbowerrealestate.com/do-open-houses-work/
Today's seller tip is about one piece of my marketing program which is the open house schedule.
In my experience, I recommend two weekends of open house (rather than one) since I always get new buyers visiting on the second weekend who typically end up submitting an offer.
My focus is to market to the widest group of buyers looking in your price range so that we can get the highest number of offers since competition drives price.
We will talk more about the pros & cons of accepting a pre-emptive offer vs. setting an offer date.
In the meantime, if you have any questions please call or email.
Have a great day!
