Cheryl Bower

My passion is in helping others find their dream home and reap the benefits of homeownership.

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.

Testimonials

"Cheryl was an absolutely stellar realtor for us in selling our townhouse. We didn't realize that our sale would end up being challenging in several ways. But Cheryl was wonderfully patient and remained persistent despite the various roadblocks that kept coming up. What I felt described it best was that she had this zen attitude towards what was an extremely difficult sale. It certainly helped to steady our rocky ride. She was a calm and collected presence when we wanted to lose our cool. From her knowledge of the market, to the outside expert resources that she had at the ready, to her efficient escrow team, Cheryl is a results-oriented agent and is personable and cheerful to boot. We give her two thumbs up and highly recommend her!"

"Cheryl is an honest, thorough, and dependable agent. She helped us through all of the processes and really made sure we understood how everything worked. She did an amazing job, knowing when to schedule inspections and was always able to pull these off with very little notice. These were often 100% essential in finding extremely important deal breakers, like a house that looked like it had a good foundation, but in reality was about to fall off the cliff! She has been invaluable as a guide and sounding board for house projects and contractor recommendations. Another aspect that I appreciated about Cheryl is that I never felt like we were pressured into placing any offer that we were not comfortable with. She did a wonderful job educating us whenever we had questions, and when we wrote an offer, it always felt right. I am also very appreciative of Cheryl's patience with us. We weren't in a rush, and we have strange tastes. Cheryl continued to work with us and allowed us to wait for the perfect home."

"We met Cheryl eight years before we got serious about putting our house on the market. We told her when we were ready to sell we would call her; and we did. In one word, our experience working with Cheryl was invaluable. To be fair, we could not have sold our house without her. This is not to say that other real estate agents could not have put our house on the market and arranged open houses. But Cheryl brought a depth of experience, resources and counseling to the table that enabled to get through the highly stressful situation of selling our home with our unique set of circumstances and requirements. From the start, she provided a detailed timeline of what we needed to do and when, which was a great comfort. She was on hand all the time to answer even the most trivial of questions. We got to the point where we’d find ourselves in a conundrum to say to each other, "Ask Cheryl." When it came to marketing, we greatly valued that she appreciated how much our home meant to us after living here 24 years. The website she put together about our home and neighborhood told you a story about us, from my husband’s art studio, to the art and artifacts we gathered in our travels and displayed prominently, and our work with rescue animals. And because of her strong negotiating skills, we exceeded our goals in selling our home. From start to finish Cheryl was our guide and she has become a friend through the process, which has made the experience even more special for us. We hope to be in our new home a long time but should we decide to make a change, we'd definitely "Ask Cheryl.""

"Cheryl helped my boyfriend and me find our dream home in San Francisco. She taught us about the process and helped us consider the right places for us. Cheryl took us through our first offers. She was always available, and her response time is incredibly fast. I absolutely trust Cheryl as my realtor and am so thankful for her expertise, kindness, and patience! We are so happy with our new place and wouldn't want to live anywhere else! I wholeheartedly recommend her to any of my friends and family who are looking for a realtor in the Bay Area."

"Cheryl helped us purchase our first home in San Francisco, including offering great advice, helping us find professionals for inspections, and negotiating through closing. Highly recommend Cheryl for her professionalism, work ethic, and experience in real estate. She represents both buyers as well as sellers."

"I first contacted Cheryl when we were thinking about buying a place in SF almost 6 years ago! Once we started looking we realized it wasn't the right time for us, but Cheryl had been so professional and accommodating that we knew once we were ready, we would work with her again. Fast forward 6 years later, when we got back in touch with her she was quick to respond and we met in person a day or two later. She carefully detailed her approach as a buyer's agent and what working with her would be like. She asked us insightful questions about our timeline and what we were looking for. The very same night we started getting emails from her about places she saw that she thought would fit our interests. The next weekend, she had put together a list of open houses for us all to visit together. Her expertise was invaluable in educating us about HOA fees, locations, school districts, inspections, etc. If there was a place that we would want to improve or renovate, she gave great insights into what that would look like logistically and what the costs would be. Over the course of 2 months and many open houses, she helped us find our dream house, get the disclosures, and talked to the seller's agent to help us put together the best offer possible. The DocuSign process was very easy, and she walked us through each step of the way. As first-time home buyers, I don't think we could have gone through this process without her!"

"My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Cheryl this summer, and it's hard to imagine the sales process going any better. She was great at setting realistic expectations, managing the process, and being spot on with her responsiveness. We felt we had a professional who always had our best interests in mind, and we highly recommend Cheryl for your listing."

"Cheryl was highly recommended to us by another realtor who does not work in this area. She was absolutely great to work with throughout our entire process of purchasing a condo in San Francisco. She knows her business, she knows the area, and she was 100% responsive to all our queries. She recommended great people to work with for financing, inspections, etc. Her company uses current technology to make things like getting signatures super efficient and easy for the customer. She is personable and professional, and I could not recommend her more highly."

"It has been about a month after moving into our new apartment and we couldn't be happier to write this review for Cheryl! She has been a great partner to work with and has really put us at ease as first-time homebuyers. We really appreciated her expertise, recommendations, and patience across the entire home-buying process. She was thoughtful and strategic in helping us evaluate properties given our budget and we definitely felt like she had our best interests at heart. Other highlights include. Being flexible and working with our busy schedules - Finding ways to make the process easier, like using Docusign - there was definitely a ton of paperwork involved and passed around - An excellent shortlist of recommended inspectors, lenders, and other service professionals. Presenting our offer in person with the selling agent to help us stand out and advising us about how to put our best foot forward with an introduction letter. We enjoyed working with Cheryl in buying our first home and would highly recommend working with her as your buyers' agent in San Francisco or in the South Bay."
