About
As a husband-and-wife real estate team, real estate isn’t just our profession—it’s our passion. We truly live and breathe this work, and we’re grateful for the opportunity to help our clients achieve their goals with confidence.

As longtime Bay Area residents, we’ve been fortunate to live throughout the region—from the South Bay to the East Bay, and now the Tri-Valley, which we proudly call home. Having lived in various regions allows us to bring a unique perspective, local knowledge, lifestyle insight, and market expertise to every client relationship. Our deep roots allow us to understand trends and market dynamics and guide our clients through the ever-shifting Bay Area market with clarity and insight.

Buying or selling a home is a major milestone, and our philosophy is simple: empower every client with the information, strategy, and support they need to make well-informed decisions. Why clients choose to work with us:

Consistently top-producing agents with a proven track record
Five-star client reviews across multiple platforms
Ongoing professional training to stay ahead of market trends
Expertise in modern and luxury real estate marketing strategies
Backed by Compass, the industry’s leading tech-forward brokerage
Seamless integration of AI to elevate strategy, insights, and efficiency
Two dedicated, knowledgeable agents working in tandem for your success
Transparent communication, clear processes, and aligned expectations
A collaborative approach built around our clients’ goals

Beyond real estate, we are proud members of our local community. Each month, we partner with our local food bank to deliver to families in need. We sponsor our neighborhood schools and actively champion the amazing small businesses that make our region so special. Giving back is not just something we do—it’s core to who we are.

We are dedicated to guiding our clients toward their goals with clarity, confidence, and unmatched care.

As partners in both life and business—and parents of two daughters—we understand the weight and meaning behind every real estate decision. We approach every client relationship with integrity, communication, and a steadfast commitment to protecting your best interests. We deeply value the trust our clients place in us, and we consider it an honor to walk alongside them on their real estate journey.

I am incredibly grateful to have found Francis and his team. From my initial casual searching to finding a home I absolutely love, and all the way through closing, they were consistently helpful, respectful, and kind.
Because I travel frequently, I was actually out of town during a few critical moments of the transaction. Francis and his team stepped up seamlessly, ensuring I didn't miss a single deadline and guiding me through every step remotely. I felt like I was in excellent hands the entire time. Every interaction was pleasant, supportive, and completely low-stress.
I highly recommend Francis and his team to anyone looking for a dedicated real estate partner.

**Above and Beyond – The Ricafort Team Made Our Dream Home a Reality!**

We had the absolute pleasure of working with The Ricafort Team for over a year in our search for our forever home, and we truly couldn't have asked for better partners throughout this journey.

From the very beginning, their **attention to detail** stood out. Every home we toured, every document we reviewed, every question we had—they were always thorough, thoughtful, and incredibly well-prepared. What impressed us most was their **communication**, which was nothing short of outstanding—even while they were *on vacation in Japan*, they stayed in touch and ensured we never felt out of the loop.

Their **patience** and commitment never wavered, even as we navigated a long and sometimes unpredictable process. At every step, they took the time to **explain everything clearly**, helping us feel confident and informed in every decision we made.

Thanks to The Ricafort Team, we are now settling into a home we truly love—our forever home. We’re so grateful for their guidance, professionalism, and genuine care. If you’re looking for a real estate team that truly goes above and beyond, look no further!

Willa and Francis Ricafort were the listing agents for my home. From start to finish the entire experience with them was five star. They were very considerate about my needs around showing the house. They were great at communicating to me from start to finish what was happening and what was expected to happen. We wound up getting multiple offers after the first open house, and we went into escrow soon after that. Throughout the entire process, I felt Francis and Willa were there to support me. I would have no hesitation recommending them to anyone.
