    About Evan Kishineff

    Meet Evan Kishineff - Your Trusted Sonoma County Real Estate Advisor Local Expertise. Deep Roots. Client-First Service. I'm Evan Kishineff, a dedicated real estate professional based in Petaluma and proudly serving Sonoma, Marin, and Napa counties. As a long-time North Bay resident with deep roots in the community, I help buyers and sellers navigate the local real estate market with confidence, clarity, and care. A North Bay Native with Real Estate in My Blood Raised in Napa and a Petaluma resident since 2004, I grew up immersed in the world of real estate. My family ran their own brokerage in the 1980s, and I learned the fundamentals of home construction and property management from a young age working on my parents' investment properties. Real estate isn't just my career--it's a lifelong passion. Smart Strategy Backed by Planning Expertise Before becoming a REALTOR®, I earned my degree in Environmental Studies and Planning from Sonoma State University and worked as a city planner. That background gives me a unique edge when it comes to understanding zoning, land use, and development potential--critical insights that help my clients make informed decisions, especially when buying or investing. Serving Sonoma County and Beyond While my home base is Petaluma, I work with clients throughout the North Bay--from the Russian River and Sebastopol to Napa and Marin. Whether you're buying your first home, upgrading, downsizing, or investing, I bring local insight, sharp negotiation skills, and a no-pressure approach to every transaction. Real Estate with Heart Giving back is at the core of my business. I proudly serve on the Board of Directors for Food For Thought Food Bank, a leader in Sonoma County's Food Is Medicine movement, and I'm a COTS Agent for Change, supporting the fight against homelessness. I also host and participate in multiple community events throughout the year. What You Can Expect Working With Me My approach is simple: be honest, stay accessible, and always go the extra mile. Clients often tell me I'm the kind of REALTOR® who listens, communicates clearly, and bends over backward to make the process smooth and successful. Whether you're planning a move in two months or two years, I'd be honored to earn your trust and be your go-to resource for all things real estate. ?

    Community Involvement
    I serve on the Board of Directors of Food For Thought Food Bank, a Sonoma County non-profit that is part of the Food Is Medicine Coalition and literally provides bags of healthy groceries to people in Sonoma County with serious medical conditions.

    Evan is a passionate real estate agent and this is evident in every aspect of purchasing a home. He helped our son in law and daughter find their dream home and has done the same for us. No detail is too small or too big. He listens intently and follows through with every concern or request. He has contacts to help you address each concern. We are especially grateful with how helpful he was with us while still living in San Francisco and trying to buy in Petaluma. He had a great ability in guiding us through the negotiating process of home buying. If you want an agent that will go above and beyond for you, I heartily recommend Evan! We are very happy with our new home and thankful to have made a new friend in Evan.

    Evan is beyond awesome and proactive. I could not have felt more supported as a client. Evan listened me deeply, understood exactly what I was looking for, and he went way over extra miles to help me make informed decisions. He was the first to point me to red flags, suggest solutions that I could not imagine. Also he worked as city planner, so he knows all the regulations related to airbnb and creating backyard cottages and he follows them closely. A native of Napa and resident of Petaluma, he knows the Northern bay area inside out. I could not recommend him more. In the last 5 years I worked closely with 3 estate agents and there is not comparison between working with Evan and the other 2. Finally, pease note that I just paused my buying process, so I cannot report on Evan's negotiation skills.

    We met Evan at an open house he was hostingaEUR| my husband and I were just embarking on what turned into a 4-year odyssey to find a country property (and length of time was solely on my husband and I because we were being very picky). I cant even guess at how many houses we have seen over the 4 years, and Evan was there every step of the way, so patient, knowledgeable, and always encouraging. Country properties are their own kind of special and we were complete novices so we relied on Evan for recommendations and information. And if he didnt know the answer, he made it his mission to find out. Not only is he incredibly well-informed, he also has an amazing vendor/contractor contact list. During these four years, we also sold two properties with Evan and we never had to worry about any aspect of the sale. He explained the whole process, presented us with different options regarding the sale and gave us solid advice on any situations that arose. We always felt he was our advocate and that we were partners in the process. Well, we finally found our dream property and I'm not sure who is more thrilled aEUR" us or Evan. Through this process, a real friendship has developed and that is because of the person he is. We feel so lucky to have visited that particular open house and to have him as our broker. We absolutely could not recommend him more highly!!

    5 stars, for sure! We reached out to Evan in January with very specific needs on where we wanted to live and how much space we needed for our family. We just closed on our house two weeks ago and can't help feeling like we got the VIP, white glove treatment from start to finish. This is a very competitive market and Evan was so calm and patient with us, as we had a pretty rough time navigating through everything. He always made himself available, whether it was going to see a house or just hopping on a quick phone call. Wonderful service, a keen eye for the market and positive attitude....what more can you ask for?

He is very involved in community services. He is ethical and trustworthy. We would not hesitate to use him again, and to tell our friends and family about him.
