    About John Solaegui

    I am John Solaegui (say it like So-Leggy) and I have enjoyed being a top residential real estate agent since 2003, consistently ranking in the top 2% in sales production San Francisco. I was named among the top real estate professionals in an annual ranking sponsored by REAL Trends/Trulia, a highly regarded real estate ranking of agents in the US. I am a member of the Top Agent Network and former CFO and Board Member at the San Francisco Association of Realtors. I moved to the Bay Area shortly after graduating from college with a degree in Finance. While earning my MBA at UC Berkeley, I took every real estate course offered, including finance, marketing and design/development. The experience that most defined my passion for Home was the opportunity to transform a Pacific Heights "haunted" house into a stunning San Francisco Victorian. The transformation and eventual sale of that house propelled me from being a CPA and financial professional into residential real estate many years ago.

He and his team at Haven Group aEUR" we also worked with George Whitney and Chirs Sanchez aEUR" developed a strategy that let us test the market for our house, then rapidly and efficiently adapted to the information gained. The folks they brought into the process aEUR" escrow company, inspectors, and so on aEUR" were reliable and proficient.

    I rarely write reviews, but I feel compelled to share the exceptional service I received from the Haven Group SF? John Solaegui and his outstanding team, Jacob Itsekson and Chris Sanchez. John is extremely knowledgeable, responsive, ethical and patient. He carefully guided us through the complexities of selling a fully rented multi-unit building in San Francisco, explaining all our options in a clear and easy-to-understand manner. During the process, some unexpected and challenging issues arose. John handled each one promptly and professionally, always maintaining a calm and reassuring demeanor. Jacob went above and beyond to help us navigate and resolve the setbacks we faced. His dedication and responsiveness made a huge difference. Chris was consistently prompt, timely, and reliable throughout the entire process. Thanks to the team?s expertise and diligence, the sale stayed on track and escrow closed on time. Kudos to John and his team ? I highly recommend the Haven Group SF!

    Lance and I met almost 4.5 years ago, and let me move at my own (glacial) pace, and was very patient with me during the entirety of the time I?ve worked with him. He helped me close on a perfect first home in the Mission. I?m excited to engage him and his team for the next one, when there?s a reason to upgrade!

    I worked with Lance as a first time home buyer and just closed on my home in Noe Valley. I met Lance at an open house a few months ago and was impressed with his level of detail when it came to reviewing inspection reports and disclosure docs. There was a property that I was super interested in that had significant issues with the foundation listed in the inspection report. I was glad Lance pointed it out and explained the issues with that home in detail. Throughout the entire process, I felt like Lance had my best interest in mind and never pressured me to make an offer on a place that I didn?t feel was worth it. Once I finally found a place that checked the boxes, Lance quickly drafted up an offer and explained each document in detail. My offer got accepted and I even got a seller credit to cover some of the closing costs. I highly recommend Lance as a real estate professional for anyone looking to buy in San Francisco.
