Ron has sold five properties for us and has always done a great job. He is extremely knowledgeable, very personable, hard-working and always with the highest level of integrity. Ron listens to his clients and has a cooperative approach to decision-making. He has an excellent supportive team and I appreciate the fact that his company…
Anna helped us with the purchase of our home. She is by far the best real estate agent we have ever dealt with – both as buyers and sellers. She is responsive, has impeccable negotiation skills and is very knowledgeable on what’s going on in the market. The best is that Anna does it all…
Anna recently helped us purchase a home in the Outer Sunset neighborhood of San Francisco and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. Anna was incredibly responsive, very proactive, and was really patient with us (first time homebuyers) — answering clearly and directly when we had questions (and we had a LOT of…
Anna was my realtor in 2018, helping me buy my condo in San Francisco in a very weird negotiating situation. From the day we met, I could tell Anna was different than many of her peers. She was responsive, proactive, and offered real feedback without being pushy. She was a great sounding board as I…
Anna sold my investment property in San Francisco during a difficult COVID-19 pandemic environment. As an out-of-state investor, I had to rely on her for everything related to the property. She took care of every single aspect of the transaction – managing the outgoing Tenant transition, working with her vendors to get the unit ready…
Anna was instrumental in our ability to navigate the complex purchase environment in SF and land our dream home. She was patient and understanding, as we discovered our own wants over the course of the search. She then found us an excellent home that had not even come on the market. After that, she played…
Anna is the partner you need when you’re buying a home. My wife and I were first-time home buyers in SF and had heard about the daunting experience that it can be to buy a home here. Anna made this process so smooth and relatively easy. Anna asked great questions, listened to us, and gave…
We loved working with Anna when buying our first house! The world of homebuying was intimidating as we were learning everything for the first time. Anna explained the process well, and helped us manage our expectations so we had a better idea of what was in our budget, while keeping some of our budget available…
I admit I don’t write reviews often, so when I do, it is because I feel very motivated! What can I say?! Just the idea of purchasing my first home was so overwhelming. I didn’t know where to begin or what direction to look. I believe I got extremely lucky to have met Anna. Thinking…
To frame my review, I want to start off by saying that I am demanding, have high expectations & when working with Anna, I was first time home buyer. And not at a luxury price point 🙂 For any realtors out there, this is the perfect storm of “not worth my time.” In addition to…
Anna helped me and my husband buy our dream home in San Francisco during the COVID pandemic. It can be really tough to tell what you’re really getting in a real estate agent until you are in the thick of it, and we could not be happier with her partnership, level of professionalism, thoughtfulness and…
Anna is above and beyond great, we were first time home buyers and had absolutely no idea how crazy San Francisco real estate actually is until we started looking about 3 years ago. We didn’t have the most organized finances, and constantly wavered between home types, and of course, had lofty expectations. All that didn’t…
In a time frame of 6 months I sold a small apartment and bought (moved to) a bigger one, with the assistance of Anna. She laid out a most smooth itinerary to follow, she walked alongside me every step of the way and led when necessary. She is very organized and efficient with excellent knowledge…
WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO SELL MY HOUSE WITHOUT SHERRY
I would not have been able to sell my house without Sherry handling all of the house preparations, as I was in another state and avoiding travel due to COVID. She set up all the contractors extremely quickly and gave me timely updates, including virtual walk-throughs at the different stages of the prep. She also…
Sherry Gray was instrumental in assisting us when we decided to sell our family home that had been in the family for 47 years. This was an important, once in a lifetime sale for us and Sherry gave us great advice on all the options we had in a changing market. She was concise and…

SHERRY IS INCREDIBLY KNOWLEDGEABLE, efficient, and service oriented, and she helped us land the home of our dreams in record time. Her detailed knowledge of the SF market helped us hone in on exactly the right places to consider, and with her guidance I felt confident in our decisions every step of the way. Sherry…
We met Sherry 4 years ago when we were downsizing. She assisted us with the sale of our house and the purchase of a condo. It was stressful having both of those processes simultaneously. We had moments when Sherry had to pull me from going over the edge! Sherry was professional and caring. She heard…
Sherry Gray was an absolute joy to work with when selling our condo. She guided us through every step of the process and devoted her full resources in helping us maximize our value. On top of all that she also helped us find the home of our dreams! We would recommend Sherry to anyone looking…
We had been searching for a larger house for our family for several years. We were quite discouraged until we decided to switch realtors… After just one meeting with Sherry, she immediately started showing us homes that met our criteria, price, and style in the neighborhoods we had selected. We felt like we had a…
In a very compressed period of time and during a notoriously slow month for home sales my brothers and I were interested in selling our old family home in SF. Because of the timing we approached the sale with many questions, cautions and concerns. When we met with Sherry she was enthusiastic, optimistic and immediately…
Sherry Gray helped me in purchasing my condo from start to finish. Sherry was always available – with a smile – and answered all questions and concerns I had before, during and after the entire purchase process, making it stress free. Sherry went above and beyond her duties, and I would highly recommend her to anyone…
Sherry helped us get into the home and the neighborhood we have always wanted, despite the extremely competitive nature of San Francisco real estate! She’s intelligent with her advice and ensured that we spent our money on just the right property that meets our requirements. On top of that, she’s extremely responsive and can come meet us…
RON WILL BE MY FIRST CALL FOR MY NEXT REAL ESTATE TRANSACTION
Ron and his team were extremely diligent in selling our house. They created a top notch design, marketing and pricing strategy that enables us to sell our house quickly and for a great price. He will be my first call for my next real estate transaction.
Ron is hands down the best agent I’ve ever met, and really can’t speak highly enough about him. He’s knowledgable about the market, savvy in negotiations, and he thinks very long term — he doesn’t seek to make a quick buck from client, but instead prioritizing finding the very best situation he can for them…
BUSINESS SAAVY COMBINED WITH DEEP COMMITMENT TO HIS CLIENTS
Working with Ron Abta both to buy our first condo when we first entered the market, and later to sell it this year (while balancing Shelter In Place requirements with ease and respect for safety and protocol) was a dream experience. His business saavy combined with deep commitment to his clients makes something that could…
HE GAVE US THE CONFIDENCE WE NEEDED TO PUT IN AN OFFER AT A GREAT PRICE THAT WAS SUCH A GOOD DEAL
Ron and the Polaris team were invaluable at helping my family (1) secure the perfect home for our family (we have challenging requirements, especially for San Francisco), and (2) identify a great investment opportunity in it. We toured several homes from May through August of 2020, so it was a challenging time in the mid…
WORKING WITH RON IS A REMINDER THAT THERE ARE GREAT PROFESSIONALS STILL OUT THERE
When you’re going to spend an insane amount of cash on a house, you want Ron in your corner helping. He helps make it feel like a positive experience, rather than the financial trainwreck you’d obsess about if you didn’t have him there to guide you. He’s extremely knowledgeable about the market and the value…
Decent real estate brokers are, almost literally, a dime a dozen in SF. We were looking for one that stood out as exceptional. We found one in Ron. He was the one scampering under our house to get to the crawl space by the lightwell in the basement to clean the window just a little…
My wife and I were recommended to Ron by other people who have worked with him in the past. Five-star rating, slam dunk! He is probably the smartest RE agent you could find in the Bay Area (MBA from Stanford!) which pays off big-time. Here’s a quick example: he took the time to join the…
Ron is the best. My wife and I just bought a house with Ron’s help. The search process took around a year. After looking for a year in Pac Heights, Laurel Heights, Lake, Inner Richmond, Cole Valley, Ashbury Heights, and Noe Valley, we finally ended up in a place in the Inner Richmond that we…
This past spring, Ron helped me purchase a property in Lower Pacific Heights. I was particularly thankful to have Ron by my side during the bidding process – he calmly walked me through all the decisions I had to make after I’d decided on the amount to bid. He was detail-oriented and answered all my…
THE GUY TOTALLY KILLED IT, WOULD RECOMMEND TO ANYONE.
Ron recently helped me buy my first house in San Francisco (and first house ever) – I can definitively say that if he wasn’t in my court, I’d probably still be looking at throwing offers into the wind. When I selected Ron as my realtor, it came down to one thing, trust. I had met…
Ron is what real estate agents should be — truly works on your behalf and patiently guides you through the entire process knowing when to push and when to just hold your hand. Ron came to me highly recommended by close friends who used Ron himself to close on their own home. Never has a…
I WOULD RECOMMEND RON AS HE IS A SMART DOWN TO EARTH, SELF MADE, STANFORD MBA
I purchased my first house in SAN Francisco with Ron in 2008. I met Ron two years prior when I had a very limited budget. At that time, and over the years, Ron had patiently taken time with us, showing us a full range of good investment fixers while always being mindful of our constraints…
Ron Abta is a rock star, plain and simple. He has marketing skills that blow everyone else out of the water. House sold in 2 weeks with 4 offers above asking, and in a jittery market, too. I can’t recommend him highly enough.
A+ experience working with Ron and Alex on the sale of my condo. I strongly recommend using them without hesitation. They are very experienced and pleasant to work with and executed well for me. They were able to sell my condo in a quick off market transaction at the price we discussed. Like other reviewers,…
WOW. HIS GUIDANCE ON EVERYTHING FROM TIMING TO PREP TO SHOWINGS WAS SPOT ON. MULTIPLE OFFERS. WE WERE THRILLED WITH THE SELLING PRICE.
My husband and I have been working with Ron for several years, and have had two transactions with him – he helped us buy our first family home in San Francisco, and then a few years later sell it when we had the opportunity to purchase a larger family home. Buying: Ron was patient and…
I’D RECOMMEND HIM WHOLEHEARTEDLY FOR BUYERS OR SELLERS.
Ten years later and we worked with Ron again to sell our condo. We knew we’d work with him again, given our fantastic experience with him when he represented us as buyers. With this sale, we got the white glove treatment again. And though he now has a “team” working with him, we always felt…
Ron helped us sell our house in SF at a much higher price than listed or expected. Specific things that Ron did made all the difference. Ron worked with us to show off the house to best advantage – recommending updates, coordinating the work, and getting the house staged with an excellent sense for leveraging…
Ron did an awesome job selling our home in 2015. He helped us through the whole process. He was also our broker when we bought the home. We have been with Ron a very long time and we would highly recommend him to others.
5 stars for Ron! super knowledgeable on the market, extremely responsive, and strong communicator. he actually develops an opinion on specific properties based on what you’re looking for, versus other real estate agents who just push property and volume. he stuck w/ me during my year long hunt for the perfect property and was able…
Ron helped us find the perfect home for our family in San Francisco. He is very well connected with all of the agents and understands the nuances San Francisco market. When we told people that we were working with Ron, people would always have a positive, ‘you’re in good hands’ reaction. He’s a nice guy…
My wife and I bought our first home in Noe Valley with Ron’s help, a fairly complicated TIC transaction. Being first time buyers, we were extremely nervous on many fronts: would a TIC work for us? Was THIS the house we should buy? There was a tremendous amount of anxiety. Ron acted as our guide…
SERIOUSLY, THE TWO OF US WILL MISS TALKING TO RON EVERY DAY.
My boyfriend and I were really thorough in picking the right real estate agent for us. We interviewed several people (all of whom had excellent yelp ratings) and were having a hard time choosing. Until we met Ron. He put us at ease immediately, and I could tell that he was really willing and eager…
Ron was absolutely terrific. My wife and I recently bought our first home with Ron’s help. We were total novices and he marshaled us calmly and expertly through the entire process from identifying neighborhoods to wrapping things up with the title company. We agree wholeheartedly with all the other reviews: Ron is smart, reliable, has…
My wife and I worked with Ron off and on for about 2 years as we looked for our ideal home in Noe. When one finally came up (a rare foreclosure near 24th Street), Ron was able to get us in to look at the place that same day, and we submitted our bid that…
I WOULD ABSOLUTELY 100% RECOMMEND RON AS A REALTOR.
I would absolutely 100% recommend Ron as a realtor. Ron is smart, patient and trustworthy. He helped me last month buy a condo in the City. As a first-time home buyer, I was pretty ignorant of the process as well as nervous. While I did my own self-education, Ron was very patient and detailed in…
RESPONDS QUICKLY TO ANY INQUIRY – PHONE, TEXT, EMAIL.
I had the pleasure of working with Ron recently and actually found him through Yelp. I wanted a broker with brains and dedication and that’s him. He’s not your typical 9 to 5 person and responds quickly to any inquiry – phone, text, email. Overall, he demonstrated the utmost professionalism and patience from the start…

I NOW OWN A PIECE OF SAN FRANCISCO THANKS TO RON ABTA!
I now own a piece of San Francisco thanks to Ron Abta! I honestly thought that buying a home in the City would be impossible. Things are so expensive and the market is so competitive. But Ron helped my husband and I navigate the treacherous waters and brought us safely to a beautiful condo in…
I can’t recommend Ron highly enough. My fiance and I just bought our first house with Ron and he was invaluable throughout the process. I have to admit, coming into the process we were a bit skeptical of the value (or lack thereof) that some real estate agents add, after having heard stories from friends,…
I CAN CLEARLY SEE WHY HE HAS EARNED HIS 5 STAR RATING
I called Ron regarding some advice on a home I own not in SF on a Sunday afternoon. Where most agents would either send calls to vm or show no interest once not in their area Ron was extremely helpful taking all necessary information and investing time to locate a suitable local agent who can…

I TRUSTED RON’S ADVICE AND GUIDANCE AND IT RESULTED IN BOTH A SUCCESSFUL PURCHASE AND SALE
After entrusting Ron to help me purchase my home in 2008, when I decided to sell it this year, I immediately looked to Ron for guidance. Just as with the purchase, Ron was patient, ensuring I understood and was comfortable with each step of the process, and was an advocate for me with various vendors…
RON IS JUST AMAZING TO WORK WITH AND WE WOULD NOT HESITATE TO RECOMMEND HIM TO ANYONE BUYING A HOME!
We worked with Ron Abta for nearly two year. Ron was patient, knowledgeable, professional and resourceful during the time it took us to find our home. In the competitive San Francisco market having someone like Ron really helps. Ron knows the San Francisco market and his advices are priceless. He was always responsive. It was…
We hired Ron after our first listing agent quit on us. He literally saved the day for us by coming in, taking over and fixing what wasn’t done up to par. Ron advised us on what minor changes needed to be made to get us top dollar for our property. We were extremely fortunate that…
Simply put, Ron is the man. We’re honored to have purchased our first San Francisco home through him. We would unequivocally recommend him to anyone looking to make a purchase in the city. Beyond being a great realtor, he’s an awesome person to spend time with. Do yourself a favor and hop on the Abta…
Thanks to Ron, my husband and I have become a proud house owner a few month ago. It was a pleasure working with him! As someone who does lots of homework and has decent business skills, I have no tolerance for service providers who lack expertise, communication skills, and sound judgment. But alas, so many…
