About Mike

I'm Mike Needham, a Realtor with Coldwell Banker Realty focused on San Francisco. I work with homeowners across the city, from Potrero Hill to Sunnyside and everywhere in between. Single family homes, condos and TICs.

In San Francisco, the list price is often a marketing strategy, not a statement of value. The strongest results come from understanding what buyers are actually paying, how your home compares to the competition, and how to position it to create the most demand when it hits the market.

Before residential real estate, I spent more than a decade in multifamily real estate as an accountant. That background shapes how I advise sellers today: analytical, detail-oriented and grounded in the numbers, without losing sight of the fact that every home and every seller's situation is different. Take the quiz and I'll personally review your answers and text you my take. If selling now makes sense, I'll tell you. If waiting is the better move, I'll tell you that too.
